Ms. Waygan reiterated that she is an elected public official and nobody has the right to exclude <br /> her from these meetings. She said it is not allowed to go into a subcommittee in a public meeting <br /> and say that some members from the Planning Board cannot attend. <br /> Chair Phelan asked if there were any additional comments. <br /> The Chair recognized Mr. Fulone who attempted to address a question to Attorney Cox. After <br /> some commotion,Ms. Waygan called point of order and the Chairman addressed the point of <br /> order. He directed Mr. Fulone to avoid addressing his question to Attorney Cox. <br /> Ms. Waygan was recognized by Chairman Phelan. She reiterated that she could not be excluded <br /> from these public meetings. She stated that she is an elected official and could not be demoted to <br /> a member of the public. <br /> Mr. Lehrer made the point that it appeared that Ms. Waygan seemed to be interested in <br /> participating as a member of the proposed subcommittee if two members of the Board are <br /> elected and asked if anyone would consider nominating Ms. Waygan to the subcommittee. <br /> Chair Phelan said he would entertain another motion since the previous one failed. He then <br /> called upon Ms. Waygan. <br /> MOTION: A motion was made by Ms. Waygan for the full Planning Board to commence <br /> meetings with the applicant,Mashpee Commons, to engage in detailed discussion regarding <br /> the proposed language of a zoning amendment related to the proposed development <br /> agreement of the Mashpee Commons expansion in the conceptual Community Activity <br /> Center Overlay District zoning proposal. The motion was seconded by Mr. Balzarini. Roll <br /> Call Vote: Mr. Balzarini—Yes; Ms. Waygan—Yes; Mr. Callahan—No; Mr. Fulone—No; <br /> Mr. Phelan -Yes <br /> Mr. Phelan stated that he understood the various opinions and perspectives but did not want to <br /> make the applicant feel that this will be a long process. We will look for opportunities to break <br /> into smaller groups then all come together. <br /> Mr. Callahan stated while he understood the various positions of the board members, he felt the <br /> subcommittee was a good opportunity to keep things moving forward. But if the Board wants to <br /> move slower then he was agreeable. <br /> Mr. Balzarini recalled about 10 years ago that Mashpee Commons came forward with a <br /> development agreement so this is not new for the Planning Board. He stated he wants to start <br /> from"ground zero" and that both the Town and Mashpee Commons understand what each party <br /> is looking for. He suggested that perhaps subcommittees could be formed to study various areas. <br /> He felt the process would be efficient and move right along so that Mashpee commons could <br /> start developing <br /> Chairman Phelan pointed out that although Mashpee Commons might have presented something <br /> 10 years ago to the Board, but the Commons is basing everything on The Cape Cod Commission <br /> 6 <br />
