16 Great Neck R.oadNorth <br />.Mashpee, Massachusetts 02649 <br />Ms. Waygan followed up asking about the recommendation of policies. She asked if Mr. Lehrer has <br />given thought to those being included as well. <br />Mr. Lehrer stated that is entirely up to the Board. The existing conditions really lays the framework for <br />analysis of the existing condition in consideration of goals and vision, we defined as actionable steps to <br />achieve that goal. He thinks yes, in some variation. <br />Ms. Waygan thinks the analysis section was really good and that it should stay. Recommendation <br />policies could probably be skipped and go right to action steps. The inventory section and analysis <br />should stay and be updated. <br />Mr. Lehrer stated as we update the document the format for the update is critical as well as <br />implementation. It is inconsistent across chapters. They need to define who is responsible for actions. <br />Ms. Waygan asked the other Board members if it was a sound idea to keep the inventory and analysis <br />sections for this chapter. <br />Mr. Richardson stated it is a good idea to have something to reference and see what has been done or <br />what the inventory was in comparison to now. Both he and Mr. Balzarini agreed to keep the sections. <br />Mr. Lehrer commented the amount of resources and data available for coastal resources is extensive <br />more so than other elements. It clearly identifies the priorities the town has been making over the years. <br />The Chair called for Public Comment and recognized Lynne Barbee. <br />Lynne Barbee- She saw a lot on Saturday at the LCP workshop, one thing missing from the actions <br />that is dear to her heart, a really comprehensive public education campaign. The water is not great but <br />many don't really know what it is we are doing to contribute to that. There are a lot of good policies but <br />people also need to know their roles in all of this. A couple years ago when she first heard about <br />fertilizer her neighbors would say they don't live near the water. People have limited comprehension of <br />our own contributions. For example, overturning the plastic ban, understanding the level of micro <br />plastics in our water. Included in the action should be a program for public education. On p.65 it notes a <br />public information program for year four. We should be getting high school students involved. There are <br />a lot of ways to get everyone involved, we need more public education, posters, Mashpee TV, seminars <br />etc. <br />Mr. Balzarini noted a pamphlet that went out some years back about what happens when you flush <br />your toilet and where the water goes into the ground. He recalled them being handed out to the school <br />and it was a good booklet. <br />M <br />
