AI Summary
This bill authorizes the city of Northampton to amend a specific conservation easement to allow for some parking within 200 feet of a gravel road, as well as underground piping and heat exchange for ground source heat pumps. In exchange, the city must accept an expanded public right-of-way easement to allow the public to access foot trails within 100 feet of the Mill River on the northerly side of the river, northerly and westerly of the Smith College crew house, and westerly of College Lane on the Smith College campus. This amendment is intended to provide more flexibility for the city while also enhancing public access to the surrounding natural areas.
