8 <br /> Mashpee Select Board <br /> Minutes <br /> June 6, 2022 <br /> APPOINTMENTS& HEARINGS <br /> Discussion mus . . �..ppw _rol.aosed Great River BoatRamp Parking Recreation Director Mai°_,Bradb ; <br /> and A. rovalm of Pmmm <br /> Mary K. Bradbury,Recreation Director was in attendance to review a proposed pilot program with the Select <br /> Board to provide Summer Gate Attendants at the Great River Boat Ramp. Fees would be charged to offset the <br /> cost of staffing at the site. A $15 fee is proposed to non-resident and non-sticker holder patrons to launch <br /> watercraft vessels. A $25 fee would be imposed to park associated vehicles along the straight-away entry road <br /> as posted. Non-residents and non-sticker holders would not be allowed to park in the designated resident <br /> sticker-holder parker area located adjacent to the boat launch site. <br /> Ms. Bradbury explained this is an enforcement issue. Non-resident and non-sticker holder trailers and <br /> associated vehicles are parking in the resident sticker holders only parking spaces. The violations have not been <br /> enforced and this has created high-use of the boat ramp, traffic congestion and frustration from resident sticker- <br /> holders. <br /> To move forward collaboratively two staff members are proposed in the pilot program during beach season <br /> hours with an emphasis on weekends. A shed,table, chairs and items of like would be required. Funding <br /> would derive from the fees. If supported by the Select Board,the start cost is estimated at $5,000. <br /> It was noted the Town is receiving a good pool of candidates for seasonal positions. In this program, staffing <br /> would not be taken from other areas. In the future the Town may consider additional staffing to monitor the <br /> Ockway and Baker boat ramps. <br /> Motion made by Selectman Weeden to authorize the Recreation Director to move forward with the <br /> Summer Gate Attendant proposal at the Great River Boat Ramp if seasonal staffing is adequately <br /> provided. <br /> Motion seconded by Selectman Sherman. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0. <br /> Roll Call Vote: <br /> Selectman Gottlieb, yes Selectman Weeden,yes Selectman Cotton,yes <br /> Selectman O'Hara,yes Selectman Sherman, yes Opposed, none <br />
