`f Should Mashpee file with Natural Heritage for the other three sites as well? The New Seabury golf course is no longer in a Natural Heritage site. Jeff said it is a similar process-submittal fee and a few pages of forms. Nancy Farrell from Regina Villa was present to discuss the public relations work. She looked at the original scope of work, then developed a "shopping list" of items for the Commission to consider. This will help decided how to spend the $13,000 budget, or if desired, increase the budget. She presented a package of information to the members, including work samples and a spreadsheet showing cost per task. Regina Villa has worked in other communities on similar projects. They have found the fact sheet as most useful. That information, language can then be used on other items, like a websiteand display. They Displays can be placed in key municipal facilities and can be updated as the project progresses. The website can be part of the town website or free standing. This budget is for a standalone site, up to 10 pages, for 2 years, and RV would update it. RV is writing all the copy and it will be professionally designed. Tom asked what would go into the fact sheet? What would be included that is not already out there in the press? Nancy suggested a description of where the town is in the process; information on the cost; re-charge siting. How does it get distributed? It can be inserted into the newspaper (with permission of the paper), or it could be mailed to each household. Tom asked if the cost estimate included distribution? It does not, just production. The town of Dennis included it in their water bills. Regina Villa would work with S & W to prepare an outline for the fact sheet, a layout and prepare a draft copy for everyone's review. Tom asked about the status of the Cape Keepers group/information. Nancy Farrell said no one was designated to work on it and there is no funding. APCC has the information. The brochures were only printed as needed. Tom thinks that brochure is a good starting point. Nancy can get that information to re- print. Tom said, personally, he is not excited about a display board, especially for $5,000. He thinks it makes the most sense to use the town website but could really use help with the text and getting it onto the town website. RV would talk to the town IT staff to make it cost effective to use the town website. Tom would like input from S & W and Regina Vila on when they think the flyers should go out, what those strategic points are.
