There will be better sunlight penetration. There will be proper identification at the end of the dock with the DEP license and address of the property. The Agent noted this is the only plan available and because there is no change in the footprint he recommended a negative determination.

Proposed re mova I/rep lace ment of two ramps and floats, relocation of one piling and construction of a new platform, walkway and dinghy rack. NOI Resource Area: Land Under Ocean, Coastal Bank, Salt Marsh, Land Subject to Coastal Storm Flowage, BVW, Coastal Beach Matt Costa, Cape and Island Engineering, represented the applicant. Also present Catherine Laurent, DPW Director. Mr. Costa explained the proposed project consists of the removal of two existing licensed ramps and floats, relocate one licensed pile, the construction of 4'x 4' bituminous concrete pathway, 6'by6' timber platform, installation of two prefabricated ramps, two prefabricated floats and the construction of a 7' by 20' dinghy rack. The work to be performed is within the standards of the Mashpee Bylaws. He noted signage will be posted at the site and the work limit will be marked. It has a Chapter 91 license. He noted people are walking over the salt marsh and people are storing their dinghies. They are proposing site improvements. They are going to pave an approach to a new ramp so that it will be seamless which will make the ramp handicap accessible. It will be graded to have to prevent any water to run up on it. They are also proposing a 14 foot aluminum ramp to a 6' by 6' timber platform which will be located above mean high water. They will need to remove some native vegetation but will gain some salt marsh area back. The platform will be elevated to a five foot clearance. The floats will be rebuilt and they will relocate the furthest existing pile to the north northeast so the existing boat ramp will be aligned. Both of the ramps will be constructed offsite. They will install a dingy rack opposite the boat ramp which will give people clear access to the water so they will not be traversing salt marsh. They will end up with an overall benefit to the site. They are doing it with the current chapter 91 license. There is an open order of conditions on this property and they have also filed the appropriate paperwork to close it out for work that was done many years ago. He respectfully requested the commissioners issue an order of conditions.
