Pittsfield Conservation Commission approves warehouse and issues 11 compliance certificates.

Chair James Conant and the six-member board also unanimously issued 11 Certificates of Compliance for completed projects across the city, including bank stabilization at Onota Lake, solar array installation, and house additions.
