Members noted a conservation panel at the Hampton Recreation and Senior Center on Feb. 18 (6 to 8 p.m.) featuring speakers from UNH Cooperative Extension, Seabrook Hampton Estuary Alliance, Coastal Watershed Land Conservation Manager and local landowners; commissioners agreed to repost the event notice on the commission's Facebook page.

Commissioners discussed presentation length (15 to 20 minutes) and whether to extend meeting time for public attendance; they tentatively set a longer time block and discussed starting an hour earlier in May if the event requires more time or interboard participation.

Separately, the commission received notice from Brenton Quigley, the engineer on the Prescott project, that the project's final mitigation calculations have been submitted and that the developer intends to put funds into the mitigation fund. The commission said it will forward the engineer's email to interested members and explore whether the town can retain mitigation dollars for local conservation projects; no decision has been made and members noted deadlines and program rules may affect options.

Commissioners also discussed meeting logistics for future speaker events and possible coordination with other boards (planning board, ZBA) if presentations draw broader audiences. Emily Nichols' visit is intended to explain application timing and the mitigation program structure so the commission can evaluate whether local projects are eligible to receive mitigation funds.","The commission scheduled a presentation by Emily Nichols from the New Hampshire Aquatic Resource Mitigation Program and learned that the Prescott project engineer submitted final mitigation calculations for a mitigation fund.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6334390,"Commission approves development work on youth trail passport and geocaching outreach",278,2630000,2908000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2295994-47c1d04841c64e2aea926a496d895439&start=2630&end=2908","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2295994-47c1d04841c64e2aea926a496d895439/thumbnail_2630000.jpg","/articles/6334390/New-Hampshire/Commission-approves-development-work-on-youth-trail-passport-and-geocaching-outreach","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6334390-f1ff7e0c55c0d369abe60a461e53dc1c/orig.mp4?Expires=1771160043&Signature=j6IHzwqDkuQqKlskDiBe~7Hv5wmi7YBvORwm4cjqz9h2zriUBJcRnlpG2Pf5~CIPsj0N769d3IBW42NtZCLGiJLL1l3sDX8TXkqfk4Rt0ctn0u4Xc5UphbHu1jaPWK8MYJpiaMnVhgK55ZJdUnLfpqdTG2ofc450vRTrc~kpOA8fdhtG2SVSkm3yeGBNSAtelthsXDguQPyYOPhQxQYHEwDzjgXuK7PogHH1B13cQjwQsqnpqL0llz8KWM9Uj6Ta1nR~ajiGv6uTvbGkmALR63lSUkcWZ1jG9~bSpJwsU80Bv3sZ3kYLC2dpU-shoK6UX1cc5zGc6Wp8d1xEY0Bn-g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Commissioners endorsed pursuing a youth engagement pilot to encourage children and families to use Brentwood trails, including a trail-passport program, geocaching and a sticker or badge contest for elementary-school students.

Emma, who researched programs in neighboring towns, described Exeter's trail-passage rubbings and Nottingham's 10-trail badge model. Emma and Becky said the town already maintains trail maps on the town website, which would make a passport program simple to implement. Commissioners suggested low-cost rewards such as stickers or a badge; the commission noted that badges cost more and stickers could be distributed within the commission's existing town events budget.

Members also proposed geocaching as an alternate or complementary activity, noting there are several geocaches already in town. Commission members asked Emma to develop a short plan and estimated budget for review at the March meeting; they discussed the possibility of a student art contest to design a sticker or badge and indicated willingness to coordinate with the elementary school on prize distribution.

The commission agreed the program would be a low-input initiative to draw young residents to town trails and conservation activities; a budget request will be prepared if members choose a paid reward format.","The commission supported a low-cost youth outreach plan (trail passport, badges or stickers and geocaching) to encourage children and families to use town trails; members asked staff to return with a budget and design options in March.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6334396,"Brentwood Conservation Commission backs revival of community \"Brentwood Gathering\" April 3 at recreation center",303,2247000,2550000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2295994-47c1d04841c64e2aea926a496d895439&start=2247&end=2550","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2295994-47c1d04841c64e2aea926a496d895439/thumbnail_2247000.jpg","/articles/6334396/New-Hampshire/Brentwood-Conservation-Commission-backs-revival-of-community-Brentwood-Gathering-April-3-at-recreation-center","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6334396-f9041050ec58baeff07751100835afe6/orig.mp4?Expires=1771160043&Signature=W0CKa71ETK-Q0bvS56vXcA-23TYjZHAHfVkgbEjk5xA3g8Kj4rj4Ne7aMnbw3VM7bvVHKuQzSjy2bFN96I~FVD3wWDCPW6oIswbFfBPt73LNVm-GZ7WGRD~rNDeC1MTBgqOITxsfXXEY-MqkcBRRrY7OeJvnRitD0vnejqd7ZBO2pTLO4JZNC117K7ATkmHJRDzdonnHErCpArcLsF1ARqQO9~p~W4WZ~5xinfVDYSHxLKw-WU2Ol47FAzAO-OaXler1aytnKQfOccYHSfAurG7DMgD5aBuwcnO8F0PWXCE0CTGGZIpMrbvD1aEz3ahGOH9wkCVL~qbLgWEaUX6bng__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Members of the Brentwood Town Conservation Commission agreed to co-sponsor a revived community event called the Brentwood Gathering on April 3 at the recreation center, aiming to help residents learn about town committees and local nonprofits.

Commissioner Michelle said she reserved the rec center for April 3 and asked the commission to host an information table; she proposed inviting the Historical Society, Friends of the Library, Trails Committee, Garden Club and Recreation Commission, plus local nonprofits such as Austin 17 House and Hidden Pond Farm. Members expressed general support for the event and for treating it as low-maintenance: a table for the commission and open invitations for people to stop by and talk with committee representatives.

Michelle described an informal format including short icebreaker conversations so residents can meet committee members and learn about volunteer opportunities. Commissioners suggested making the event recurring and to publicize it on town channels; several members offered to help set up and staff the commission table. The commission agreed by consensus to participate and to coordinate further details by email ahead of the April date.

The commission did not allocate a specific budget line at the meeting but encouraged volunteers to assist with planning, setup and cleanup and asked Michelle to circulate a flyer draft for follow-up.","Commission members agreed to co-sponsor a revived community fair on April 3 to introduce town committees, nonprofits and residents to volunteer and community opportunities.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6334401,"Brentwood Conservation Commission approves amended January minutes, reimburses grounds volunteer and votes to enter nonpublic session",223,111000,334000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2295994-47c1d04841c64e2aea926a496d895439&start=111&end=334","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2295994-47c1d04841c64e2aea926a496d895439/thumbnail_111000.jpg","/articles/6334401/New-Hampshire/Brentwood-Conservation-Commission-approves-amended-January-minutes-reimburses-grounds-volunteer-and-votes-to-enter-nonpublic-session","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6334401-9f6cb21953288c5d266ee3dcbd2d3f1e/orig.mp4?Expires=1771160043&Signature=MoauNCZksqJVGXHvVVrSoCwMA~cqJ97TRmYRBw~tHChoiBzbBxUr5FMT2NVYV2uFER28QNaOcTCfswitMVM7Ts0h-oJQ9PdmOXPBWWzkQM2HwqQopAdF51eKzDXdQ5hfQbitd-JbicgDgyLepNlCXyhI3AQIoksQdgk3qNaRHWgGQSxkoc3epYpWGbJlY7KpiliSbmCzlEbVvuETD2oZ3b-P9SWS6g2JdAZqwLQs95Nk9twnh~xOY2tIbdK77gXgAXJRX1ZEqA~HniJC1JQ62AP4wF7TSKsuG9wcHSqx-aAPseNz-JYsDTIUkxPop-NFze5A0MNNm7z8lYecXirLZg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Brentwood Town Conservation Commission approved amended public minutes for January, voted to reimburse a volunteer $52.97 for fuel used mowing Stevens Field and unanimously voted to enter a nonpublic session to review draft nonpublic minutes and discuss a set of properties.

The approval of the January public minutes came after members raised minor corrections, including attendance and spelling of a member's name; the commission voted to approve the minutes as amended. The commission also approved a motion to reimburse Bob Magnuson $52.97 for fuel used while mowing Stevens Field over the summer; the commission chair said she would submit the reimbursement to the town administrator the following day.

Before moving items into nonpublic session the commission discussed procedure for sealing and approving nonpublic minutes. Commissioners agreed to review the draft nonpublic minutes during the closed session and then approve and seal them afterward. The meeting concluded its public portion by voting to enter nonpublic session to address the January nonpublic minutes and two property matters; the roll call vote was recorded as unanimous.

Members present recorded several procedural clarifications during the meeting: alternates will be included in nonpublic discussions when appropriate; invitees (including members of the open space committee and people integral to open-space discussions) may be listed in the minutes as attending nonpublic sessions; and the commission plans to confirm the select board's appointment procedures for filling a departing member's seat.

The commission scheduled its next regular meeting for March 12 and indicated it would handle approval and sealing of the January nonpublic minutes after the closed-session review.","At its February meeting the Brentwood Town Conservation Commission approved amended public minutes from January, authorized a $52.97 reimbursement for a volunteer who mowed Stevens Field and voted unanimously to go into nonpublic session to review draft January nonpublic minutes and property matters.","actionData","errors"]
