HENESSEY PROPERTY

Hennessey Property
For the past two years the Trust has been working with the Hennessey family to help them explore ways of preserving as much of their property as possible for open space, while also meeting their fiduciary responsibility to the family.

We’re very excited about this project, as it utilizes the Flexible Open Space bylaw to preserve as much conservation land as possible. It has been designed as a five building/ten unit development, built on only 7 of the 39 acres. It will be a low impact design, with reduced impervious surfaces and green building methods. Right now, the Hennessey family is working with the Planning Board to obtain approval for their plan.

The Hennessey family is to be commended for their dedication to the preservation of this important ecological system, and for designing a plan that incorporates preserving as much acreage as possible while still maintaining their fiduciary responsibilities.

BATES LANE CONSERVATION AREA

Wheelwright Property
The Trust facilitated the purchase of 47.6 more acres in the Bates Lane Conservation Area. The property was owned and farmed by the Wheelwright family of Cohasset for many years. The property consisted of three parcels along the Scituate Cohasset town line in the area of the Bates Lane. The land is primarily uplands and wooded.

The Trust submitted a proposal to the Scituate Community Preservation Committee to consider purchasing, with CPC funds, the 47 acres, and the purchase was approved at Annual Town Meeting. The CPC then applied for and received an EEA LAND Grant for $500,000 toward the purchase.

This brought the total conserved property in this forest to almost 300 acres!
