`O'1NYl w4 s4P <br />2e. Planning Board <br />16 Great Neck Road Worth <br />Mashpee, Massachusetts 02649 <br />Ms. Faulkner commented she has always been partial to the old survey that she took in 2020 when <br />she ran for the Planning Board. She thought it was nice and easy and flowed well. She is not liking this <br />one too much and she has a feeling a lot of people won't take this survey. When you get questions <br />like, "what natural resources are most important to you" with provided answers such as vernal pools, <br />salt marshes, or coastal bays, a lot of people don't know what these words mean. She knows what <br />they are but she had to look it up at one time. She showed this to a few people, not people <br />knowledgeable about these subjects, and they thought it was heavy duty. <br />Mr. Lehrer wanted to make it clear that Ms. Sweet came to Mashpee and they worked on the survey <br />together. It is a matrix to gauge the questions, a level of support for the question, and a rationale for <br />why the question is important to ask. At the Board's direction they utilized the 2011 survey as the <br />skeleton and simplified and made it more user friendly in consideration to survey best practices. This <br />presentation was consistent with what the Board had asked and they removed a number of questions <br />that were no longer relevant because the action already occurred or there was a bias in some way. If <br />the question was still relevant they restructured the question so the bias was removed completely. He <br />stated they all generally agreed that the 2011 survey was robust and lengthy, and they did their best to <br />take that as a framework and modify according to survey best practices. <br />Ms. Faulkner asked if the questions will be more in line with 2011 survey. <br />Mr. Lehrer these questions that are before them are from that survey, just modified. <br />Ms. Waygan stated that Ms. Sweet gave them a summary from the April workshop. She asked if they <br />talked about the possibility of doing the same for the May and June workshops. <br />Ms. Sweet asked if she was referring to the excel spreadsheet, that summary? <br />Ms. Waygan commented in April, she did an unbelievable job with taking all the comments from the <br />half a day long workshop, the kickoff, swat analysis. They ended up with an amazing spreadsheet with <br />counts of how many people said this or how many people said that, and they were grouped together. <br />She asked Ms. Sweet if that would be done for the Natural and Community Systems workshops. <br />Ms. Sweet answered she certainly can consolidate that information into a spreadsheet. <br />Ms. Waygan noted they should look at the information from those workshops before they make the <br />final selection on all these questions, we make sure everything is captured or tag everything people <br />brought up. She doesn't want to miss anything and not include in the survey if it were super important. <br />Mr. Lehrer stated in the matrix you will see (1998) or (98), it references every question that was <br />modified or often, completely regurgitated, with some minor modifications from the 2011 survey. There <br />are deletions from the 2011 survey and additions and considerations for things we know are emerging <br />issues. <br />0 <br />
