The expansion of public water and natural gas to Durham’s Town Center provides economic and community development opportunities. Durham’s 2016 Plan of Conservation and Development (POCD) directs that Durham’s elected officials should, “take an active role in encouraging additional infrastructure investment in locations where commercial and industrial development is appropriate and a financial return on taxpayer investment can be demonstrated”.
This committee will review current infrastructure, gather information, explore development and expansion options, and craft recommendations regarding the Town's infrastructure needs to assist the Board of Selectmen and other Boards and Commissions with the prioritization of infrastructure projects and funding. In addition, the guidance provided by the Infrastructure Committee will be utilized to implement elements contained in our POCD.
Evaluating potential paths for expansion of water and gas services, evaluating opportunities to partner with new and emerging technology, evaluating the feasibility and desirability of additional utilities such as waste water, telecommunication and internet, creating a benefit and impact assessment summary, and developing a schematic plan. The Infrastructure Committee will operate in an advisory capacity to the Board of Selectmen and will work only on matters assigned by the Board of Selectmen.
