The purpose of this Commission is to identify open space areas and recommend the acquisition of such areas or interest in such areas. Open space areas within the Town of Canton have been and continue to be a diminishing resource, and such open space areas are considered a valuable asset to the community. It is recognized that there is a need to obtain additional open space areas in order to meet future recreational needs, to preserve agricultural lands, to protect natural resource areas and to maintain the Town's quality of life. The Commission will direct the acquisition of land and/or the purchase of interests in such land for purposes identified in the Plan of Conservation and Development and other recreation and conservation planning documents.
