The letter notes that Red Brook is home to one of the only remaining sea-run Brook Trout populations in the state, and that the district is vital to the town’s water source.
The organization says that more intensive development could impact water quality, stream flows, and habitats.
The complete text of the letter follows:
Dear Chairman Teitelbaum, and Members of the Board of Selectmen:
Several organizations and individuals have communicated to Mass Audubon regarding concerns about the proposed zoning amendment that will be considered at the Special Town Meeting on Saturday, April 10, 2021. We have reviewed this information, and feel that it merits close attention. The Red Brook and its watershed, flowing into Buttermilk Bay, contain important surface and groundwater resources and natural habitats, and there have been extensive investments by public agencies and private organizations in protecting and restoring these lands and waters. Red Broo

To the Editor:
I am a registered voter in the Town of Wareham opposed to the rezoning Article 1.
I do not believe that any of the criteria under the Governor’s order, nor the guidance issued in February 2021 are met for other than a two-thirds quantum of vote. The section of the new law that focuses on zoning reform appears to be geared toward new housing (not commercial) development. The law focuses on “smart growth” i.e., making sure housing is close to existing transit, while promoting mixed use so that people can walk to a train or the grocery store. That is not the case on Glen Charlie Road. Wareham has effectively no reliable and consistent public transit.
