Nantucket Islands Land Bank seeks ADA upgrades for Long Pond Landing
The Nantucket Conservation Commission convened on May 8, 2025, to address several agenda items, focusing on environmental regulations and community concerns. The meeting began with a brief intermission to allow for the arrival of a member, after which the commission proceeded to review applications and requests.

The first item on the agenda was a notice of intent regarding a submission from Purcell at 32 Dukes Road. The commission asked if any members wished to open the application for public review. With no interest expressed from either the commissioners or the public, a motion was made to close the application, which passed unanimously.

Next, the commission addressed a notice of intent requiring a waiver for submissions made prior to January 1. The discussion included a request to continue a specific application, SE 48 37 59, until May 22, which was agreed upon.

The meeting then moved to amended orders of conditions, where Liz Phelps represented the Nantucket Islands Land Bank. She presented a request for an amended order concerning Long Pond Landing, which currently features a parking area, walkways, and an elevated walkway. Phelps informed the commission that the existing surfaces were not compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Therefore, the Land Bank sought approval to make necessary upgrades to ensure ADA compliance at the site.

The meeting concluded with no further items on the agenda, and the commission's decisions will be followed up in future sessions. The discussions highlighted ongoing efforts to maintain environmental standards while addressing community accessibility needs.
