Mendham Township Environmental Commission

P.O. Box 520, Brookside, NJ 07926

Dear

The property you have recently purchased is one of many in Mendham Township that contains a conservation easement deeded to the Township. The easement was established to protect specific environmentally sensitive features such as streams, steep slopes and wetlands and their transition areas.

The Mendham Township Environmental Commission has developed a conservation easement protection program that includes files of all easements, a monitoring system and educational outreach to easement holders.

To help you understand the purpose and restrictions of your easement, we are enclosing a brochure on conservation easements and their importance, as well as a map of your lot with the easement delineated. In addition, please refer to your deed for specific information related to your easement.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call one of the Environmental Commission members listed below. Thank you for being a steward of Mendham Township's exceptional natural resources.

Sincerely,

Ralph Rhodes
