Mr. Dennis Main
Avalonia Land Conservancy
Po Box 49
Old Mystic, CT 06372
Dear Mr. Main:
The Montville Conservation Commission supports the Avalonia Land Conservancy’s
effort to obtain a CT DEEP Open Space and Watershed Land Acquisition Grant to
acquire approximately +/- 220 acres from the Gladys J. Bond Trustee for the property at
41 Beckwith Road in Oakdale, Connecticut.
This acquisition will significantly expand the open space area surrounding the Bogue
Brook Reservoir, increasing passive recreational opportunities for the community, secure
wildlife and fish habitats, and protect and conserve the watershed area north of the
reservoir.
Sincerely,
Jessica LeClair, Chairman
Conservation
Town of Montville
