Mr. Rowley suggested an on-going traffic study be implemented so that traffic <br /> conditions/impacts can be addressed as the project progresses. <br /> The Board agreed especially as the-developer is asking for flexibility for project <br /> uses. <br /> Mr. Storrs agreed that East Steeple Street and Forth Market Street could be <br /> studied in phases and sub-phases whereby the traffic study would be reviewed (every5- <br /> years). <br /> Mr. l ascombe spore to the credits and-how the Commission arrived at the <br /> numbers. The credit currently standing for Jobs[Whitings is a little less than 1 million <br /> dollars, which is a combination oftwo sets ofcredits. At the time when the Korth Market <br /> StreetlPhase I Stop& Shop portion ofthe project was developed, the Commission <br /> calculated the fair share for mitigation to be $263,000.00 including signali ation <br /> improvements at the intersection of Route 28 and Donna's .bane. Mashpee Commons is <br /> responsible for all costs associated with the signalization, and that in the event the costs <br /> exceed the fair share calculation that the excess amount is to be applied to their credit for <br /> future development of Mashpee Commons. <br /> Mr. Storrs explained that when significant improvements were made at the <br /> intersection at route 151 and Jobs Fishing Road the Town asked Mashpee Commons to <br /> pay 100% of the costs because the Town slid not have any funds to contribute, with half <br /> to be credited against future mitigation; to which Mashpee Commons agreed. The cosh <br /> were certified, however Mashpee Commons did not add an inflation factor. The Town of <br /> Mashpee approved the design and every construction requisition. <br /> Mr. lascornbe explained that the Commission made a conscience decision when <br /> developing the new RPP to ride an attempt to lover the costs of development within <br /> economic centers in order to encourage development in these areas. Reductions have <br /> been made in mitigation for affordable housing, open space requirements, standards for <br /> energy, and land use. <br /> Mr. lascornbe addressed a question asked by the Town Planner by stating the <br /> specific uses for the Mashpee hpee Commons development are unknown at the moment. As <br /> traffic mitigation is based upon use and there is so much unknown,ern, the Commission has <br /> provided a range or proportions of mitigation that would come from the second and third <br /> stories, from office and residential use in economic centers which are the ones that would <br /> go uninitigated should an economic center be adopted. <br /> Mr. Cannon spore to theoretical development and what the RPP allows, which is <br /> three story structure with retail on the first floor, office and or apartments on the second <br /> and third floors. If the Town designates an economic center that is what could be <br /> permitted, not necessarily at Ma' shpee Commons as the majority of heir buildings are <br /> tiro-story. - <br />
