Mashpee MA Abstract & Premise: The proposed development is intended to satisfy the demand for cellular and PCS communications in Mashpee proper, specifically between the town line of Forestdale , along route 130 heading south into Mashpee to route 28. Due to the finite amount of locations allowed in the Mashpee Wireless Overlay District, this subject parcel represented the best overall fit for such a development. The subject parcel was a double lot that has a preexisting Industrial use on the property.All other lots available were either smaller or represented Raw Land that would require extensive clearing of the natural vegetation. T'he proposal is to mitigate the aesthetic impact of the development by utilizing the preexisting building on the property to "house" the communication equipment. It is felt this specific component of the project that has merit during the regional impact review. In summary, the value added component of this subject property over any other property directly relates to adding to an existing industrial application versus changing the landscape of a large wooded lot through clearing.
