16 Great Neck R.oadNorth <br />Mashpee, Massachusetts o2649 <br />Ms. Faulkner understands what he is saying. They aren't utilizing the capacity. However, they <br />violated a Special Permit and claim to not know they did so. It could be cut and dry, but she <br />needs to go through those findings. <br />Mr. McElhinney stated there are different views on this issue in terms of what it means and <br />what the history of the project and series of approvals mean. There are very substantial <br />economic reliances on these permits, not only by them but the homeowners. He would suggest <br />they continue both these Public Hearings for 30 days. During that period, they will gather all <br />the correspondence with DEP and bring Kevin Klein, who has been the wastewater engineer <br />on this project since 1990, and has been the liaison with DEP. He is well respected and will <br />transparently share what currently remains the count. He does not think anyone is capable of <br />coming up with exact numbers. Working with enforcement, the big picture view is this is not of <br />great importance. The DEP in its wastewater permit, where the 853 is noted, that's where that <br />figure came from. <br />Mr. Miller commented in terms of the statement made relating to being in violation, that doesn't <br />feel right. They have never done anything that was not approved by this Board. Data has been <br />collected and provided every step of the way, he doesn't feel like a violation is an accurate <br />representation of their collective. <br />Ms. Waygan commented they should use this time to delegate to town staff what is to be done <br />if we do not want to hire a consultant. She would like the Board's consulting engineer to do <br />this. Between the Board of Health and Building Department, we have this information. If town <br />staff does not have capacity, we will hire a consultant. <br />Mr. Hansen understands the wastewater and flows are within limits, and the bedrooms are <br />excessive of current limits. We are focusing on wastewater and impacts on ponds and <br />waterways, he would like the Board to consider secondary impacts. These include additional <br />traffic flow, congestion, emergencies, etc. A three bedroom home converted to five, maybe <br />there are additional cars as well. <br />Mr. Lehrer stated staff will have to prepare the records, with or without a consultant. He would <br />like an opportunity to discuss this matter further and come back with a mobilization plan of staff <br />after it has been discussed with proper parties. It will take staff from multiple departments, with <br />an already limited capacity. <br />MOTION: <br />Ms. Waygan made a motion to direct Town Staff, Town Manager, and Town Planner to <br />develop a plan to certify the number of bedrooms at the Willowbend project. Seconded <br />by Mr. Balzarini. All in favor. <br />Roll Call Vote: <br />
