16 Great Neck RoadNorth <br />wlashyee, -Massachusetts oz649 <br />Ms. Waygan commented there is information in the packet this evening regarding the <br />Regional Housing Strategy, a new initiative put out by the Cape Cod Commission. There are <br />four pages, one comprises the housing profile of Mashpee. The housing profile is a three <br />page graphic oriented document. They had a meeting with Michaela Wyman Colombo, Evan <br />Lehrer, Ms. Waygan, Allan Isbitz, and three staff members from the Commission. They went <br />through the profile draft and she would like Planning Board members to review the draft and <br />bring forth comments regarding zoning. It talks about residential development ordinances, <br />accessory apartments, multifamily housing by right, and inclusionary zoning. She added <br />transfer of development rights (OSID bylaw) and a redevelopment bylaw. There are only three <br />mentioned and she would like Board members to come up with more. <br />Mr. Balzarini thinks about redevelopment for Stop & Shop. An addition could be built on top <br />of the building that could provide workforce housing apartments for Mashpee Commons. <br />Mr. Lehrer stated the meeting was very preliminary and there will be an engagement piece <br />with Public Comment period and additional workshops. He will elaborate more at a later date. <br />Ms. Waygan stated all commercial space on the upper floors of the Bell Tower Mall in <br />Centerville is housing. There is an ordinance in Barnstable that allows for top of the shop <br />housing above commercial. She also commented about the article in the Cape Cod Times <br />about the Cape Cod Mall housing initiative. She is unsure where exactly the housing will be, <br />but the parking lot is huge. Redevelopment will bring on a lot of housing units. <br />Mr. Richardson inquired about the JBCC and workforce housing. Mr. Balzarini has been <br />asking this for years, they could give each town 100 acres, have a bus there, affordable or <br />veteran housing, there are roads as well as a wastewater facility, that needs more users. <br />Clean Water Initiative <br />Update on community engagement and education strategy <br />Mr. Lehrer commented there were a number of articles for consideration to the Select Board <br />for October Town Meeting. These included proposals to provide restrictions on development <br />in floodplains and bringing in materials to raise elevations of lots. Additionally, the Department <br />of Natural Resources proposed increasing the wetlands jurisdictional buffer to 150ft. and the <br />contemplation of fertilizer restrictions. Last Town Meeting, there was a fair amount of <br />misinformation born and spun that impacted these articles. Many folks provided feedback that <br />they had inadequate time to resonate with them, as well as stating committees didn't have <br />enough knowledge. Department Heads met weekly to identify strategies for subsequent <br />action and how to fill gaps. We need to better position these articles for success, as they <br />pertain to important changes the town should be addressing. They began identifying <br />detriments to certain property owners these articles would impact and begin reworking. The fill <br />E <br />
