Seconded by Mr. Callahan. All in favor. <br />NEW BUSINESS <br />LCP Update from Weston & Sampson <br />Caroline Wells provided a quick update. The big kick off workshop will be held on Saturday from 10a-1 p. <br />People can only stay for part of it, the kids can come, and they just want attendance. It will be held in the <br />Middle/ High school gymnasium. Cape Cod Coffee has offered refreshments, and a very intense, fun, <br />and engaging workshop. The Planning Board will serve as hosts and will be assigned duties like <br />greeting. Board members are there to listen and walk around to gauge how it all comes together. The <br />URL for the LCP is as follows: www,planmashpee.com So far, there are 30-40 people that have signed <br />up for newsletters. There are a variety of engagement opportunities such as surveys for comment and <br />input. There will be posts comprising the meeting outcomes from Saturday and notes for those who <br />could not attend. <br />Ms. Waygan knows the Consultants have been going to different Boards and Committees and she is <br />wondering when they will take comments from the Planning Board. <br />Ms. Wells has not distilled all comments and data that has been researched. There are some in the <br />works, they need to sit and have working sessions with the Board. <br />Ms. Waygan doesn't mind hosting, she was not expecting to not be able to comment at Saturday's <br />event. <br />Ms. Wells explained that it's about public visioning. She is not saying they cannot comment or <br />participate, but as a host you have to let the public speak first. She does not want the public participating <br />to feel like their opinions will be challenged. She is not stopping anyone from participating she just wants <br />to allow for a free flow of information. <br />Mr. Fulone agreed, whether we intend to or not, he does not want to sway public opinion by inserting <br />their own opinions. They want to hear from the public now. If he were in the session he would feel <br />intimidated if a Planning Board member was offering their opinions. <br />Mr. Balzarini would like the public to tell us and then we sit down and review the information. He does <br />not want to get involved unless he goes as a private citizen. He does not want to hear people say there <br />was not a place for them to speak. The object is to satisfy the majority. <br />19 <br />
