Protection, through acquisition or conservation restrictions, of parcels of highest scenic and <br /> historic character. Parcels are considered significant if they preserve one or more of the <br /> following: <br /> • Historic landscapes and the visual relationships between historic buildings and their <br /> settings; <br /> • The visual character of the Town,particularly of those areas designated as scenic; and/or <br /> • Open fields and meadows visible from public roads. <br /> Protection, through acquisition or conservation easements, of parcels of highest <br /> environmental value. Parcels are considered significant if they preserve one or more of the <br /> following: <br /> • Wetlands and watershed resources; <br /> • Agricultural land; <br /> • Greenway connections and wildlife corridors; and/or <br /> • Wildlife habitat. <br /> Acquisition of appropriate parcels to enhance recreational and educational opportunities <br /> of open space. Parcels appropriate for this purpose may include but are not limited to the <br /> following: <br /> • Trail connections or access to conservation land; <br /> • Open spaces near schools, and <br /> • Open spaces accessible to people of all ages and abilities. <br /> RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> • The Town should continue to monitor the status of parcels on its Land Acquisition <br /> Planning Report so as to be able to move promptly when such parcels become available <br /> for sale or donation to the Town. <br /> • Because land acquisitions are expensive, the CPC may consider banking CPA funds <br /> designated for open space over the annually required 10% so as to insure some reserves <br /> will be available to initiate such purchases. <br /> 15 <br />
