-14- <br /> Atty. Boyd: May I ask a technical question? You have denied the initial petition -- <br /> what I am trying to bring out is why do we have to go through this whole thing again? <br /> And then there is a waiting period-and then there is an appeal period. Isn't it in <br /> order to request the board to revoke and revise their order of denial? <br /> Pauline: I have doubled checked with the Mass. Law of Foundation and with DEQE and they <br /> told me that after denial you will have to refile. <br /> Mrs. Sanchez: Will it take very long? <br /> Mr. Benway: Three weeks. <br /> Mrs. Sanchez: That is fine. <br /> Barbara: Let it go on record that I am disassociating myself from the Sanchez case. <br /> TOWN WATER <br /> Pauline: I found this letter in my box upstairs re: the Mashpee Town Water System, <br /> dated February 22, about a deal that the Board of Health and Planning Board are trying <br /> to set up for a Town Water Study Committee. The meeting was scheduled for February 20. <br /> MACC MEETING <br /> Pauline: Is anybody planning to go to the MACC meeting on March 8? <br /> Board: No. <br /> NEW BILL, H. 1222 <br /> Pauline: We received a letter from Arlene Wilson, dated February 22, 1980, regarding a <br /> new bill which is being proposed in which they are trying to take home rule out of Con- <br /> servation and give it all to the state. The hearing on the bill will be on March 111 <br /> Wayne: Reads the letter. <br /> Pauline: What it boils down to is Dennis' by-law and our by-law. They have all the Con- <br /> servation Commissions going to town meetings copying Dennis ' by-law word for word because <br /> it supersedes the State. So the State is trying to wipe it out by putting a bill in the <br /> legislature. <br /> Dorothy: How can they do that? Our town by-laws are stronger than the State law. <br /> Pauline: They are trying to eliminate it to make it uniform and the State will come in <br /> and control all the wetlands and what have you. <br /> Wayne: It is good if they can upgrade their statutes. <br /> Pauline: If they have a staff to do it. What is the purpose of the Conservation Commis- <br /> sion? I will tell you what I think it is. It is the same thing that applies to the Appeals <br /> Board. Why was an Appeals Board established? To break the law that has been established. <br /> Now what does the Conservation Commission do? We are breaking the law that the State . <br />
