16 Great Neck RoadNorth <br />wlashyee, -Massachusetts oz649 <br />public. The intention to this pathway is not to skirt any Town Meeting or application, and with <br />the feedback he was getting, many felt uncomfortable waiting until October. He doesn't feel <br />prepared to recommend a submission of a zoning bylaw article for May as it won't allow for a <br />thoughtful engagement. <br />Ms. Waygan stated the majority of the Board is in support of this proposal. She would like to <br />know what the Board can do for the Conservation Commission to move this forward. <br />Mr. McManus summed up there are options in front of them and he agrees that the more <br />opportunity to incorporate Public Comment the better. He agrees to the point about contacting <br />groups in favor to garner as much support as possible, because it is the right thing to do. As <br />far as which avenue to choose, eventually he would say the Conservation Commission is <br />going through every regulation they have and looking at updates. Land subject to coastal <br />storm flow is one that will be going through that process, regardless of Town Meeting. The <br />Commission puts a high priority on transparency and public engagement, if it were to go <br />through the home rule authority route, it may not be an expedited process at all. It may be <br />drawn out with extended public comment and extended outreach to ensure the public <br />engagement process is fully utilized. He just provided the steps, not necessarily how it would <br />evolve. They want to be very thoughtful, deliberate, and open, particularly with those potential <br />impacts to development and everything that goes along with eliminating fill in the flood zone. <br />It's not like changing an aspect of a mitigation regulation, it is a larger scope impact to that <br />regulation. It wouldn't be expedited to reduce public engagement, with previous changes it <br />has always been careful and deliberate. The Conservation page will have a sidebar with links, <br />one is the bylaw with regulations for 172. <br />Mr. Fulone reiterated that early summer feels like a stretch, as some of these impacted <br />residents aren't here until May. The timeline gets squeezed and late summer turns to early <br />fall. Now it's on top of Town Meeting. <br />MOTION: <br />Mr. Balzarini made a motion to accept the Town Planners recommended process for <br />approval of the contemplated changes to our conservation bylaws, wetlands bylaws, <br />and Conservation Commission regulations and not submit for Town Meeting deadline. <br />Seconded by Ms. Faulkner. <br />Roll Call Vote: <br />Ms. Waygan: Yes; Ms. Faulkner: Yes; Mr. Fulone: No; Mr. Richardson: No; Mr. Balzarini: <br />Yes.
