22 <br /> Town Landing Committee <br /> To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: <br /> The town now has several parcels of land that can be <br /> made into suitable landings. One parcel at Hamblins Pond <br /> would make a very good landing but at the present time <br /> there are no funds to lay the parcel out. <br /> There is another parcel on Great River, which needs <br /> a road of several hundred feet in length to get to the lo- <br /> cation. This parcel which is approximately 3 acres, adjoins i <br /> other town owned property. <br /> There is also a portion of marshland on lower Sage Lot <br /> Pond which could be used after some work has been done on <br /> it. <br /> We have the Punkhorn Point parcel, which needs <br /> fill to make parking space. The beach at Mashpee Lake and <br /> the beach at Seconsett Island are in good condition, thanks <br /> to our Park Commissioners. <br /> The landing at Ockway Pond, should be bulldozed to <br /> a make a road leading to the shore. <br /> We should have public land on all our lakes and ponds. <br /> We have Johns Pond, Ashumet Pond, Santuit Pond, Moody's <br /> Pond, Jims Pond, Pimlico Pond and Peters Pond. We should <br /> consider a landing on lower Mashpee River, near Muddy <br /> Cover for the benefit of duck hunters. Amos' Landing would <br /> be very suitable. We should have a landing at Great Flat <br /> Pond, and one on Nantucket Sound. <br /> We are in dire need of funds, to engineer and maintain <br /> the landings that we already own. We hope the town will <br /> appropriate enough money for the Park Commissioners and <br /> the engineering department to do at least one landing this <br /> year. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> CARL AVANT <br /> EMMA O.
