Dear Mr. Main:
The Montville Planning and Zoning Commission supports the Avalonia Land Conservancy’s effort to obtain a CT DEEP Open Space and Watershed Land Acquisition Grant to acquire approximately
+/- 669 acres from Gladys J. Bond Trustee for the properties in Oakdale, Connecticut.
This acquisition will significantly expand the open space area of the Niantic River Watershed near the Barnes Reservoir and the Bogue Brook Reservoir, increasing passive recreational
opportunities for the community, secure wildlife and fish habitats, and protect and conserve the watershed areas north and south of the property. It is consistent with the Town of Montville
Plan of Conservation and Development.
Sincerely,
Marcia Vlaun, Town Planner
Planning and Zoning
Town of Montville
