,�yrxrasr�.a <br /> Town of Mashpee Community Preservation Commission <br /> " 16 Great Neck Road North <br /> ° Mashpee, MA 02649 <br /> Barbee, and another local resident later called to thank the town for creating the access. The recreation <br /> director, Mary Bradbury, was pleased to hear the property was being actively used. <br /> The neighbors have taken on an informal role as stewards of the land, watching over it and reporting <br /> any issues. One neighbor even called Ms. Barbee one evening to report that an alarm was sounding <br /> inside the building at 475 Nathan Ellis. After consultation, the fire department was called, and the <br /> building was checked. It was discovered that one smoke alarm had expired and needed to be removed. <br /> Ms. Barbee contacted DPW the following day and asked them to inspect all alarms and replace <br /> batteries, since the last replacement had been in December. DPW confirmed that they held keys to the <br /> building and would ensure the alarms were in working order going forward. <br /> Sidewalk and Bike Path Discussion <br /> Committee members also discussed the new sidewalk construction near the pond and the significant <br /> tree clearing and sidewalk construction occurring along Route 151. Members noted that the removal of <br /> so many trees had made Squirrel Pond much more visible from the road. While concerns were raised <br /> about the proximity of the work to the water, assurances were given that there is sufficient space for <br /> both the sidewalk and the bike path. Chair Russell expressed optimism that the project would balance <br /> environmental considerations with accessibility improvements. <br /> Closing the Annual Public Hearing <br /> The public hearing was formally closed and attendees were thanked for their participation and <br /> feedback. <br /> MOTION: To close the Annual Public Hearing. <br /> Motion by: Mary Waygan Seconded by: Lynne Barbee <br /> Vote: Motion passed by unanimous vote. <br /> OLD BUSINESS <br /> Vote to Close Completed Projects <br /> Project Closure: Lakewood Cemetery Restoration: <br /> The committee reviewed completed projects, starting with the Lakewood Cemetery restoration, the first <br /> cemetery project funded by CPC.
