YNO}1, <br /> ry <br /> 'own O ,` aS� e e Aannina Board <br /> V»aaiinyz <br /> c <br /> 16 Great Neck Road North <br /> Mashpee, Massachusetts 02649 <br /> Ms. Cox did receive Evans Memo, she purposefully deviated from many parking provisions, and the <br /> trick is to provide adequate but not excess parking. They have been consulting with experts who <br /> examine trends and views this development as a standalone project, not in context of Mashpee <br /> Commons. She understands that is a question this Board wants to understand. At a subsequent <br /> meeting we will bring in an expert to elaborate on the numbers in greater detail. <br /> Mr. Balzarini says a lot of traffic and fire and ambulance has to go in there. Setbacks with the alleyways <br /> and cars parked, it may be hard to get a hose or truck through. <br /> Mr. Niedzwiecki stated there is a lot that has happened since last week's meeting, he thanked <br /> Selectmen and Planning Board for the thoughtful consideration of how this process is navigated. <br /> Zoning was rolled out first for transparency, this is local process, and not having to think about October <br /> Town Meeting is a relief to them as well. He looks forward to discussion, and there is opportunity for a <br /> structured discussion, maybe one that doesn't have the same pace, we want to make sure the right <br /> people are here to answer those questions. They are going to meet with Cape Cod Commission <br /> tomorrow, we need to come up with an explanation of the Development Agreement, and local zoning <br /> process is a component. In an effort to be more transparent, all public comments were about impacts. <br /> Those are dealt with in the Development Agreement process. Zoning is a mechanical discussion about <br /> form and function. We don't want to come here and not answer impact questions. We anticipated that <br /> being part of the Development Agreement process. He feels good that the zoning is out there for <br /> consideration. As this process continues to move through and analyze it mechanically, paced on <br /> weekly or biweekly basis, and have these conversations be targeted to parking, density, public safety, <br /> etc. This would help narrow public comment and allowed the Commons to provide the right speakers at <br /> the right time to allow for productive discourse. His team appreciates the extra time as much as anyone <br /> else. <br /> Chairman Fulone asked if there has been consideration to the presented schedule. <br /> Mr. Niedzwiecki mentioned after tomorrow's meeting they will be more keyed into the schedule. When <br /> Cape Cod Commission comes on 16th they will have a better idea as well. He does not think it is crucial <br /> to meet tomorrow evening. He appreciates the tone and the progress of the dialogue. He would like to <br /> meet on the 161h, it is important to meet with Cape Cod Commission, but parking and density could be <br /> structured over four or five or more meetings. He does think having meetings that are targeted would <br /> be beneficial. Zoning is dense and difficult and when it all is happening at the same time as <br /> Development Agreement, this extra times gives opportunity to pace better. <br /> Ms. Cox stated between now and 161h we can have conversations with Town Planner to discuss <br /> suggested schedule as well as come up with topics under zoning so they can coordinate with their <br /> consultants to have the right people to present to the Planning Board. <br /> Mr. Balzarini doesn't know if this is the time to say, but there are only three exits to get out of this <br /> project now. Is the zoning part of accessing the property better than what we have? Is there a separate <br /> access road for construction? <br /> 8 <br />
