North <br /> Mashpee, MA.. 02649 <br /> E <br /> t <br /> Dear : Mr. Vaccaro, <br /> At the meeting of the Ashumet-Johns Pond Association held on April 29, <br /> 1995, at the Carol Jacobson Senior Center, the members present voted unanimously <br /> in opposition to the proposed ski jump and/or water ski slalom course proposed for <br /> Johns Pond. <br /> It is the Association's position that the use of the pond for such activities is not <br /> in keeping with what we believe to be the proper use for this body of water. We feel � <br /> that the above activities could become an attractive nuisiance; draw more boats to the <br /> pond, and pose a threat to fisherman, sailboats, and other recreational users. <br /> There is also the contamination issue to be considered. The pond is presently <br /> being studied extensively for the presence of toxics from the plumes that are known <br /> to be entering the pond. Will an increase in motorboat activity from more powerful ! <br /> boats add to the problem? Until the contamination issue is resolved, we must do <br /> whatever we can not to add to the problem. <br /> fSincerely, <br /> Albert J. Orlando <br /> President <br /> Ashumet-Johns Pond Association <br /> j <br />
