P a,z e 4 Mr. Mars ters went on to say that when we made the multi-family subdivision requirements , we met with community planners and accepting the parking requirements and the average was probably like lr - ll�g and no more than that , . . the other space was required for visitors , and this is exactly what we put in - our subdivision requirements . Mr. Blakeman pointed out that when. the Planning Board ,members were taken on tour through the Mews by Burden, it was; pointed out the building sticking out - the front was a tiro,-car garage - for the small cars -o f the future; because generally speaking it is two professional people. Mr. Blakeman- stated two cars per is 1500 cars ; the marina, if they get it - 300 slips is what they are talking what another . 100 cars , then you take the stores , restaurants and we don'-t know -how many cars, you get from that , Mr. Jonas at this point agreed.. Blakeman went on to state the Corporation has also proposed a golf course and club house within the plan - figuring 100-20'Ocars more -- :hen take the visitors that will be coming to the shops , Mr. Blakeman foresees, somewhere between' 3000 - 5000 vehicles if New Seabury is per- rntted to develop this way as opposed to say .1,000 cars the state would allow.,., At th.is- paint Mr.. ' Marstern pointed out that Burden had stated that 1 x QQQ vehicles could create more traffic during one day than the prop_ osed development; that the beach-- area would get much more than a one-on- one usage on a good day.

Jonas- further stated he himself told Burden he didn "t care about the "big buck'.' -(tax money) as that would be coming into the Town. Mr. Jonas adamantly stated he believed that- the State would do a much better job with the area, preserving same because of the fragility he stated al- thought, the "map'`" makes it appear to be of- great s i.ze , it is a tight piece of land for what the Corporation is proposing., He also feels it would cause great expenditure to the Town, in creating property- increases (values) , and keeping under the New Seabury proposal it would more or less tend to ke ep everything under their control . Mr. Jonas feels if the State takes it , it krill benefit the entire town rather than just New Seabury. Mr. Blakeman agreed. Mr. Marsters stated he felt either one Mould be good for the whole Town to which MT.

Mr. Blakeman stated when and if the state would do so is another question, however they have the capability for same , Mr . Jonas agreed that pressure would be put upon the State for facilities .
