The Conservation Commission meeting held on June 3, 2025, in Revere, Massachusetts, focused on updates to a community recreational project previously discussed in May. The meeting began with a presentation addressing outstanding questions from commission members, which were clarified through an email sent prior to the meeting.

One of the notable changes presented was the revision of the originally proposed double-stacked tennis courts to pickleball courts. This adjustment was made to accommodate community interest in recreational activities and to address potential delays in the project's second phase. The pickleball courts will now be included in the first phase of development.

Additionally, the location of the community garden was discussed. Initially planned for relocation to the second phase footprint, the garden will now be situated at the southern extent of the original tennis court area. This change ensures that community members can continue to access the gardens without delay. The new garden design will feature raised beds, a permeable stone dust substrate, and a concrete pad with two storage sheds, with one raised bed designed for ADA accessibility.

These modifications, while considered minor, will further reduce the impervious area of the project by 2,700 square feet. Consequently, the stormwater report has been revised to reflect these changes. A hard copy of the updated report was provided to the commission for their records.

The meeting concluded with a focus on ensuring that community needs are met while maintaining environmental considerations in the project’s development.
