John Prokos reviewed their revised site plan with the Committee . Their <br /> project has moved to the west, behind the housing authority site. There <br /> seems to be enough room to do this project successfully . There is a <br /> separate entry from the high school , with about 300 feet of separation <br /> between them. The parking is around the theater . Further south there is an <br /> outdoor "shed" with seating for about 1 , 000 people . The area to the east is <br /> additional parking . It will not be 1 large lot but smaller lots set into <br /> the woods . This plan required moving the housing authority property line <br /> 300 feet to the west. They also request the Committee look at shifting the <br /> whole high school complex 100 feet to the north and 100 feet to the east. <br /> This still maintains room for future field development. This provides for <br /> the areas between the football field and PAC to be effectively screened . <br /> Mr. Thompson added that even if it wasn ' t moved they would probably have <br /> enough room but this gives the center an additional buffer and separation . <br /> Their plan also shows an alternate exit on Old Barnstable Road , a secondary <br /> exit and service road . <br /> Paul asked if the Committee does not move 100 feet north but does move 100 <br /> feet east, could they divert some parking towards the Old Barnstable Rd <br /> corner? <br /> Mr. Thompson said that is the wetlands area. It is conceivable but not <br /> preferable. <br /> Mr. Thompson explained their intent is to go to schematics by this Fall . By <br /> October they will have one-half the money needed to build the facility and <br /> hope to open spring of 1996 , may not be until 1997 . <br /> Peter asked if they own the land? If there is going to be a swap , it will <br /> have to occur in October . <br /> Mr. Thompson said they have an option with Fields Point. <br /> Mr. Prokos explained this plan was developed just to verify that this <br /> center could all fit on this area, to verify it could work . Many of the <br /> details have to be worked out. <br /> PROJECT MANAGER REPORT - CONTINUED <br /> Schematic Design- to be reviewed at today ' s meeting . <br /> FF & E - SMMA sent a list of suggested items to Dr. DeMoura for that <br /> subcommittee ' s work. <br /> Meetings - Bob Fournier , Dick Foster , Tom Fudala and Bob Sherman met with a <br /> number of agencies today: Water District, State Fish and Wildlife, Trout <br /> Unlimited and WEBNER . Natural Heritage would like to see the plans and <br /> comment but were unable to attend . Dick Foster summarized the issues <br /> 1 . Buffer from the river to protect wildlife in this area and to protect <br /> the river itself . They would prefer 500 feet from the river (all groups <br /> present requested this setback) . <br /> 2 . They are not a sponsor of walking paths to the river. They are concerned <br /> about erosion and sand going into the river. They could go to the extent of <br /> opposing it. <br /> Steve said he is gun shy about going 5 times the legal buffer , these are <br /> not regulatory agencies . <br /> Paul suggested the trails could be man made . <br /> 3 . They are complete sponsors of closing the dirt road which goes across <br /> the site , block it off . <br /> 4 . Treatment plant - they sponsor it by location and design. They did <br /> question the impact on the water temperature of the river but the designer <br /> 4 <br />
