In an effort to identify <br /> potential uses for the facility, Mr. Scipione found talking to each town, AFNG, Cape Cod <br /> Commission, private industry and outside consultants as the most useful research. Thirteen <br /> potential uses were identified. The most beneficial uses for the Board of Managers were <br /> identified by utilizing ranking criteria, such as market demand, capital improvements, usage <br /> compatibility and compatibility with permits and agreements, creating a matrix. In the short <br /> term, Weston& Sampson found that C&D offered the most advantageous use of the site. Long <br /> term the site would be best used as a solid waste facility, in coexistence with another use such as <br /> CDL testing, salt storage or renewable energy. Mr. Scipione opened up the presentation to <br /> questions. <br /> The Chair shared Mr. Hunt's questions. Mr. Hunt recommended a correction in the first <br /> sentence of 2-3, "may be under MassDevelopment."
