16 Great Neck Road North <br />Mashpee, Massachusetts 02649 <br />Troy Miller stated the other change that was made to this plan was the access to the cart path. <br />That has been removed and is now a buffer, and all that activity is circulating to the south into <br />the golf community, moving the cart traffic away from Quinaquisset Ave. <br />Ms. Waygan commented Mr. Hansen is seated on this matter. She is not sure that Mr. Oakley <br />can sit. She appreciates all the changes that were made. She is concerned about the special <br />permit conditions and is still looking for that 100ft. buffer from Quinaquisset Ave. Surrounded <br />properties all have 100ft. She does see this layout as close and high density, and she noted <br />Willow Circle is a completely different creature. That special permit is not in compliance and <br />we already spoke about that. She is going to have a great amount of trouble finding <br />environmental factors, the special permit granting authority has to find that this project doesn't <br />contribute issues to the habitat, water quality, or noise. They will have to hear from <br />Conservation Commission before that can be determined. She referenced an email of updated <br />conservation efforts. The Conservation Commission voted to continue the Public Hearing to <br />June 15th and hire an independent consultant to review. Conservation Agent solicited requests <br />from 4 firms and LEC Environmental Consultants was chosen. Documents will be reviewed at <br />the June 15th meeting. The Commission will need to take a vote of endorsement for peer <br />review. It will go to the Town Manager and all costs will be at the responsibility of the applicant. <br />Mr. Richardson is happy with their responses and addressing every issue thus far. He is <br />comfortable with the buffer. It looks like a good project moving forward. They will need <br />Conservation's support and he hopes they get it. He is appreciative of all the work that has <br />been done. <br />Ms. Faulkner directed attention towards the Willowbend Special Permit Modifications, <br />paragraph 19, Article 6. The Board has to be able to answer every single area, that this will not <br />cause excess demand, not decrease air or groundwater quality, which is particularly on her <br />mind these days. There will be no impact to wildlife, traffic flow, fisheries, etc. and they have to <br />go through every one of these items. She understands it could cost $250,000 to turn the bogs <br />into wetlands. You also don't know what it will take until you get into it. It takes years of <br />restoration and we have to issue how we protect that over the years. Let's say it takes five <br />years, we would have to monitor the performance. Is Willowbend willing to do that? <br />Mr. Eddy corrected that they have decreased from 3 bogs to 2 so the costs have dropped <br />slightly and reminded everyone this is no simple task, as the costs would prove, it would be a <br />requirement for five years after any restoration. <br />Mr. McElhinney stated if they take on the work they have to keep on top of it. <br />4 <br />
