• Marshan Meadows page 5 Conservation Easement: Several rare species may exist in the area: Forsters' tern, a water nesting bird, and Blanding's turtle. The developer will provide a conservation easement as well as the normally required drainage and utility easement. Both easements will cover the same area —ten feet beyond the wetland edge —but the conservation easement will include additional restrictions such as no mowing or dumping of clippings. There also will be a special packet of educational information supplied to homeowners and monuments at the property borders of all lake lots.
