Meetings are open to the public and held at the Town Offices. With infrequent exceptions, meetings are scheduled for 8:30 am on the third Wednesday of each month. A calendar reflecting the meeting schedule and meeting minutes are available on the Town of New London website.
New London's Conservation Commission is dedicated to preserving, protecting and enhancing the town's natural resources, open spaces and scenic areas. Toward that end a strategic plan was developed to set goals for the Commission. A copy of the Strategic Plan can be found here.
The Conservation Commission's efforts are supported through the
efforts of many volunteers. Area residents are invited to
contact any member of the conservation Commission to express an
interest in being added to the list of volunteers supporting the
Commission's efforts.
Conservation Commission members installed a library box at the Clark Lookout Trail for visitors to share books.
