Toiun ofC-H Usljpre f P. O. BOX 1108 MASHPEE. MA 02649 On October 3 , 1984, there was a meeting in the Mashpee Town Hall between the Barnstable and Mashpee Planning Boards to discuss a proposed condominium development which would be in Mashpee but have access in Barnstable . Present from the Barnstable Planning Board was Judy Franain and Bob Brown. Present from the Mashpee Planning Board was Richard Dubin, Earle Marsters , Richardson Jonas and Harold Collins . Ms . Franain apoligized for the small number appearing from her Board and thank Mashpee for their time . She said there 's so much building the Cape and they wanted the opportunity to sit and talk about things happening in towns which has an impact on towns next to them. She said there was a lack of communi- cation on the Watersedge project proposed by Mr. Hostetter and they don't have adequate information. She said they do know there are 5 lots and it 's in an area where 3 units per acre are allowed and it 's in the well recharge area for Cotuit and • they want to maintain the quality of water there . M-- . Marsters and Mr. Dubin informed her that Mr. Hostetter had submitted a package on the pre-application process 4 or 5 months ago and they have not heard from him since . They did receive comments from the Board of Health. They said they would let Barnstable know when the major hearing is and when they present revised pre-application plans . They agreed that Mr. Hostetter doesn't have the required frontage so they have to get the approval from Barnstable for the frontage so it depends on Barnstable , Mr. Marsters said the area does allow 3 units per acre but the land is fragile and topo severe so he couldn't see how this area could handle the maximum amount. Ms . Franain asked who determines the number of units . Mr. Marsters said the permit granting authority and all boards have an input. Ms . Franain said they didn't have the whole picture , but she said there 's an undeveloped portion near it and if it 's later developed there would be greater impact on Newtown Rd., She asked about maintenance of the road in Barnstable that would provide access . Mr . Marsters said there 's usually a covenant and they will consider Barnstable in it. Ms . Franain said there 's a 50' layout requirement in Barnstable whereas there 's a 40' layout requirement in Mashpee . . Mr. Dubin said they will require them to continue the 50' layout . He said they would also look at the effect on water and traffic . Ms . Franain said the impact on traffic was a great concern to them. They agreed to look at this project more closely since it 's the firyt time a project involves both towns directly and rumor has it there may be another to come .
