Recreation has given conditional approval for signs at Adams Playground, waiting until the road improvements have been made. We should make sure ped/bike access is maintained with road work. Melissa Batite is helping with easement issues. The Conservation Commission approval was also conditional, on straitening out the issue of the Peacock Farm Rd access point to Suther- land Woods. It needs to be surveyed, and there is a question of administrative oversight on payment for such services. *Long discussion ensued.
