Summary

Paul McNulty introduced himself to the Conservation Commission on Oct. 9 as a prospective new member with local and lake-protection experience; his appointment to the commission is expected to be considered by the Board of Selectmen at their Oct. 21 meeting.

The Danvers Conservation Commission introduced Paul McNulty on Oct. 9 as a prospective new member. McNulty said he has lived in Danvers since 1987, has been active on the town’s rail-trail committee, and described experience with lake protection and runoff remediation in Maine.

McNulty told commissioners he has experience working with Maine DEP on shoreline runoff and that he has been “pretty involved” in town committees. He said he is recently retired and expects to attend most meetings, but noted travel plans could require occasional absences.

Staff said McNulty will need to be sworn in and that the Selectmen’s meeting on Oct. 21 is the likely next step for official appointment. Commissioners welcomed him and noted his experience with stormwater and lake remediation would be useful to the commission’s work.

No formal appointment was made at the conservation meeting; commissioners said they will follow the town’s appointment process and expected McNulty to begin participating after the Selectmen’s action and swearing-in.
