Revived Environmental Commission Appoints New Volunteers

Congratulations to the newly appointed volunteers of our revived Environmental Commission!

On March 26th, eight members of our community were appointed by the Mayor and Council after a 17-year span of inactivity. This dedicated and diverse group of individuals stepped forward to work with the administration and the residents of Middlesex. Many of them hold their own expertise in the field of environmental and conservation affairs.

Their duties include: preservation and enhancement of the quality of Middlesex’s environment and natural resources, promoting sustainable energy initiatives, conservation and educational awareness, researching proper use of open space and developing a green team with community partnerships.

The Commission will hold many annual events such as Earth Day celebrations, tree giveaways, clean-up projects, educational seminars and much more. They hope to encourage the citizens to incorporate environmentally responsible practices into their homes, properties and daily lives.

They strive to protect and improve the quality of life in our town and surrounding area with citizen support and volunteer participation.

Meetings are open to the public and will be held on the third Tuesday of every month at 7:00 pm at the Middlesex Public Library’s Community Room.

Environmentally yours,

Clare Levourne
