16 Great Neck Road Morth <br />Mashpee, Massachusetts 02649 <br />Hall, phase one of a $1.5 Million renovation project completed in 1997. DPW director believes the <br />phase 2 and assessments for phase 2 were completed. The only expansion contemplated at the <br />present time are additional parking facilities in the rear or Town Hall. Since 1998, phase 3 additional <br />office space as needed at the rear was never constructed. The parking is currently an issue. DNR has <br />since moved out of the facility as well as Recreation. We are moving outwards as opposed to building <br />on additional improvements here. The DPW facility had an action of additional garage space within CIP, <br />to add space capacity of 8,000 s.f. where a portion of which will be heated. A space needs assessment <br />was completed, there was a 40x80 foot garage, strictly for small equipment storage and is not heated. <br />They wanted to identify a site to be used for material storage and develop the material storage site. <br />There are existing facilities and bins in storage that are inaccurate according to the DPW Director. <br />There is a lack of space for vehicle storage. There was an action defined to build an additional 1,600 <br />s.f. bay into maintenance garage, no bay was ever constructed. Develop a storage yard and long term <br />storage area on the capped land fill site, there is now solar on the land fill site. Build a second phase of <br />garage expansion, never completed. The DPW facility is in a dire need of repairs. They have no <br />covered storage which is an issue for maintaining vehicles. The library had a bunch of steps and <br />actions built into it. In 1998 the library was nonexistent as we now know it, it was in a different facility. <br />After 1998 a new library was constructed to meet all needs of the 1998 plan. No renovations happened <br />to the other library, a new one was built on Steeple Street. <br />Mr. Hansen asked if the current library is 16,000 s.f. or bigger. If it is in the plan you would think they <br />would aim for that target. <br />Mr. Lehrer acknowledged that was not a question he asked but he will follow up. The next topic is the <br />archives. Conduct an archives building renovation study to assess the cost of renovation expansion <br />projects. There was a renovation to the archives building but he needs to obtain the date for that. <br />Undertake the construction of the facility following engineer design and identification of funding <br />sources. They assume funding sources and design plans were required to complete that work. Under <br />the discretion of Tribal Council, move the Ockway Chapel from its location at Meetinghouse onto <br />Collins lot. The Ockway Chapel is the one room school house, it moved twice. For the Wampanoag <br />Museum he reached out to David Weeden who provided a thorough response relative to the museum. <br />At the time the museum house was a municipally owned facility. It was given to the Tribe and put into <br />trust as part of their reservation. Mr. Weeded did note there was a needs assessment for the expansion <br />of display space. They are interested in expanding the existing parking facility. The current site is <br />relatively constrained and they may need a future land swap to facilitate that growth. There might be a <br />nearby town owned parcel where a land swap could be facilitated. He feels a lot of these actions were <br />not carried through. Mr. Weeden's number one focus right now is to enhance programming, enhance <br />display space, increase parking by way of land swap if there is adequate land area available. Similar to <br />the library, the Senior Center was about developing a needs assessments and creating certain <br />programming within that facility. The Senior Center at this time was the Kids Club and after 1998 the <br />new Senior Center was constructed. <br />Ms. Waygan commented that this was a chapter where a lot of things were accomplished. <br />01 <br />
