Developing A Vision for Use and Management of the Peter A. Krusch Nature Preserve

The Peter A. Krusch Nature Preserve will soon be under the ownership of the Town of Cambridge, and the Cambridge Conservation Commission is seeking input from community members to help guide the management of the Preserve. A Steering Committee has been formed to co-ordinate development of such a plan, in conjunction with the Vermont Land Trust and landowner (Sally Laughlin). You can help contribute to this plan by responding to this questionnaire, and/or by attending one of the upcoming public meetings and sharing your thoughts. Information gathered during these meetings and from this questionnaire will be compiled, and recommendations will be presented to the Selectboard for their final decision.

This questionnaire is applicable whether you have, or have not, visited the preserve. That said, if you have already spent time in the Preserve PLEASE make sure you pay particular attention to the questions in the Nature Trail Section of this document.
