Conservation Commission

Mission Statement

The Hamilton Conservation Commission’s primary task is the administration and enforcement of the state Wetlands Protection Act (Ch. 131 §40) and the Town’s Conservation By-Law, Chapter 17. The Commission also seeks to fulfill its mandate by funding environmental education programs in the regional school system and by organizing and publicizing various conferences and events that seek to protect open space and inform residents of the value of preservation of woodlands and scenic areas as well as trail access and management.
