Joint Message from the Leverett Select Board and Conservation Commission

Access to Gordon King Life Estate

Joint Message from the Leverett Selectboard and Conservation Commission:

On June 17, a complaint was filed against the Town of Leverett in Land Court (Case No. 2024 MISC 000334) to prevent public use of the right-of-way that provides access to the Gordon King Life Estate conservation area from Shutesbury Road.

The Selectboard and Conservation Commission are working through the legal process with town counsel.

The Town requests that anyone who can provide documentation of public use of the right-of-way, or the Gordon King property in general, please send information to Margie. Information could include stories, dated photographs, etc. Any information is welcome, and older documentation from the 1955-1967 time period would be particularly useful.

Send information to:
