3 <br />Mashpee Select Board <br />Minutes <br />November 20, 2023 <br />APPOINTMENTS & HEARINGS <br />Discussion and Possible Vote onw_Granting an Abatement of Betterment Assessment yfor re21 Cedar Street: <br />David G. Peck: <br />The Mashpee Select Board met with David G. Peck to review his request for an abatement at 21 Cedar <br />Street. The betterment amount assessed is $19,102.67. This can be paid in full or divided into any <br />number of equal parts, not exceeding twenty years. The Cedar Street property is an unimproved wooded <br />lot adjacent to the Chestnut Street property owned by Mr. Peck. <br />The two assessments amount to $38,205.34. Mr. Peck stated he is on a fixed income and this cost <br />represents an enormous expense and undue burden. Maintaining the land in its open state gives relief <br />from the density of the neighborhood development. <br />Discussion followed with respect to the road conversion from private to public and the improvements <br />required to bring the road to Town standards. There is concern with respect to setting precedent. If the <br />Select Board approved the abatement, the Town would be required to pay the $19,102.67 assessment. <br />Motion made by Selectman Sherman to deny the Abatement of Betterment Assessment on <br />property located at 21 Cedar Street, Mashpee. <br />Motion seconded by Selectman O'Hara. <br />VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0. <br />Roll Call Vote: Selectman Cotton, yes Selectman O'Hara, yes Selectman Sherman, yes <br />Selectman Weeden, yes Selectman Wyman -Colombo, yes Opposed, none <br />Discussion and Approval of the Followin _Temnora n.
