I sure would appreciate some support from you all ... it's kinda lonely up here.   The major issue in front of the con com is the emergency road they want to build connecting Brimstone Estates/Woodstock with Brimstone Lane. This involves crossing a river that is home to a fragile ecological environment as well as ruining a beautiful, pristine forest. The reasoning behind the road is that if Brimstone or Woodstock is blocked, the emergency department from the other direction (Sudbury or Framingham) could get to the site. This has NEVER been an issue in the history of either road, and the site of the crossing will do nothing to allow access to the most likely area on Brimstone that could possibly be blocked (the L curve past my house.) The plan is also to run a sewer line down Brimstone and below the bridge on the emergency road. We all know that this is to facilitate him hooking up sewer to the ANR lots he hopes to build on Brimstone. That emergency road could also someday be a regular road -- you can bet the school buses would prefer it to get to the houses on Brimstone -- and then we have the issues with a cut through through Carter/Woodstock/Brimstone to Route 20.   I have a summary of the wildlife report done by a consultant on the area where the road is going. If you're interested, I'll be happy to send it to you. ----- Original Message ----- From: Kathy Vassar To: framingham neighbors ; don beers ; g bees ; george bees ; paul braverman ; susan linder davis ; sarah donovan ; Peggy Groppo ; a&h janisch ; del mack ; alan scherr ; p1tmm Sent: Friday, May 31, 2002 9:00 AM Subject: concom- brimstone- leslee willits- due to the action of the town manager and the board of selectmen,leslee willits will no longer be on the conservation commission and will not be present at the brimstone hearing.  while technically she could sit on the board until her current term is finished (the end of june) for obvious reasons she will not be there.  her experience and enormous expertise in conservation will be greatly missed.     i know that it is a difficult night to attend another meeting due to all the other events taking place this time of year but encourage anyone with questions re: the brimstone project to attend the wed, june 5, meeting of the conservation commission for the hearing at 8P.M. in the memorial building.                                                               kathy ----- Original Message ----- From: Kathy Vassar To: framingham neighbors ; don beers ; g bees ; george bees ; paul braverman ; susan linder davis ; sarah donovan ; Peggy Groppo ; a&h janisch ; del mack ; alan scherr ; p1tmm Sent: Friday, May 31, 2002 9:00 AM Subject: concom- brimstone- leslee willits- due to the action of the town manager and the board of selectmen,leslee willits will no longer be on the conservation commission and will not be present at the brimstone hearing.  while technically she could sit on the board until her current term is finished (the end of june) for obvious reasons she will not be there.  her experience and enormous expertise in conservation will be greatly missed.     i know that it is a difficult night to attend another meeting due to all the other events taking place this time of year but encourage anyone with questions re: the brimstone project to attend the wed, june 5, meeting of the conservation commission for the hearing at 8P.M. in the memorial building.                                                               kathy
