Bradbury,Recreation Director was in attendance in support of the Disc Golf Course proposal. In 2014 Ms. Bradbury recommended this type of activity in Mashpee. This project would reach a group in the Mashpee community not currently served and promote additional health and wellness. It is another recreational activity for residents. A group of respectable and responsible players want to use this type of facility. This is also an opportunity for summer camp use, recreational programs and lessons. It was noted a Lease Agreement would detail all assumptions related to this proposal including but not limited to responsibilities, speed limit signage,trash, crosswalks,the enforcement of Town policies,no alcohol, coordination with recreation department regarding programming, and the process assigned for Community Preservation Act funding reimbursements. There has been no environmental study on the subject property. It is anticipated the Natural Heritage and Species program would issue a determination letter as with the dog park and pickleball court.
