The Northborough Conservation Commission held its February meeting remotely, adhering to Governor Healy's executive order allowing virtual gatherings due to ongoing COVID-19 measures. The meeting emphasized the importance of public access, encouraging residents to follow along via a live stream on YouTube.
During the session, all commission members participated, confirming their attendance as the chair called their names. This format not only ensures compliance with health guidelines but also maintains transparency in the commission's operations. The meeting included a segment for public comment, allowing community members to engage with the commission's discussions.
As the commission continues to navigate remote meetings, the focus remains on fostering public involvement while addressing conservation efforts in Northborough. The next steps will likely involve further discussions on local environmental initiatives and how to enhance community participation in future meetings.
