Open Space Committee
Town of Royalston, Massachusetts

 Information

We were convened in early 2005 to carry out the goals of the Royalston Open Space and Recreation Plan 2004-2009. 

The primary goals of the plan are to:

• Preserve and maintain open fields and working landscapes

• Enhance the recreational facilities that do exist and commit to their upgrade and maintenance

• Protect clean air and water for all Royalston residents

• Protect the small-town character, scenic views, wildlife habitat, and rare plant and animal species of Royalston

• Selectively target lands for conservation or recreation where necessary and appropriate, with attention to the effects of preservation on municipal finances

We usually meet on the second Thursday of each month at 7:30 pm at Town Hall.

Our next meeting is on
Thursday, June 12, 2008,

All those interested are welcome to attend! 

The minutes of our meetings are posted and updated at this website.  We are eager for suggestions and feedback from all Royalston residents, and you can contribute your opinions at meetings, through correspondence with Committee members, or electronically by email: info@royalstonopenspace.org.
