5 <br /> Board of Selectmen <br /> Minutes <br /> January 7, 2013 <br /> APPOINTMENTS & HEARINGS: <br /> Andrew Gottlieb —Mw Pond Committee: <br /> Andrew Gottlieb was in attendance with Mashpee wakeby Pond Committee <br /> members Barbara Nichols and Debi McManus to open the line of communication <br /> with the Board of Selectmen and to review priorities set by the committee for <br /> fiscal year 2013. <br /> To avoid disruption at the lake Mr. Gottlieb recommended increasing the <br /> enforcement of the rules and regulations on the pond, especially on the weekends <br /> at the Town landing. This is an issue the two towns will have to address and <br /> coordinate. The noise of boats lacking under-water mufflers is extremely loud <br /> and disruptive to the residents and other users of Mashpee wakeby. At the Town <br /> landing it is also recommended the parking limits be enforced and a ticketing <br /> policy be considered. <br /> The Mashpee wakeby Pond Committee intends on working with the <br /> Conservation Commission to review the sediment from the Mashpee River <br /> channel between the fish ladder outlet and Mill Pond. It is suggested the sediment <br /> be cleaned by hand or via dredging. with regards to this concern, the Board of <br /> Selectmen determined it would be appropriate to discuss this matter with the <br /> Waterways Commission for possible funding. <br /> Mr. Gottlieb indicated there is also an issue with a non-native species weed and a <br /> type of mollusk in the pond which may be caused by boats not being washed <br /> properly. To eliminate the presence of unwanted species, it is recommended that <br /> a wash station be created at a public site within the Route 130 area. In addition to <br /> the wash station, the Mashpee wakeby Pond Committee has recommended the <br /> homeowners be educated on the control and management of invasive species. <br />
