of TMs s,s <br /> z. <br /> Aannin Board <br /> c� <br /> 16 Great Neck Road North <br /> .wlashpee, Aassachusetts 02649 <br /> In addition, Mr. Tobin would like to add a written text in a breakout box about the Wildlife <br /> Refuge, after the recreation, under existing conditions, in 7.2.4 Open Space Inventory, and <br /> expand on it there. <br /> Ms. Faulkner asked about OS12 and the pursuing of Pickerel Cove. Ms. Waygan answered <br /> she will bring the CPC meeting minutes. The CPA recommended this to Town Meeting, money <br /> was set aside, and the deal was never struck. The CPC is recommending taking the money <br /> back to add to the reserve fund. It doesn't mean in two years it won't come back to us. It will be <br /> a great spot someday, it could not work out this time, but a lot of that was in Executive Session <br /> and those minutes will be released at some point. <br /> OS22, 475 Nathan Ellis Hwy being purchased, now the goal is to figure out what to do with it. <br /> Ms. Waygan noted some ideas have been floated to use it as a Visitors' Center or for Friends <br /> of the Refuge, but ultimately, we would like swimming there. <br /> OS17 should read restore instead of improve. <br /> OS19 reads to establish a Select Board policy that requires the protection of scenic and <br /> natural views when citing town facilities. The Chair described the road to the beach and initial <br /> water view being disrupted by an ugly concrete building at Mashpee Pond, thus requiring a <br /> policy for the Select Board to ensure when the town puts in a structure, it would help maintain <br /> our beaches' beauty and not inhibit the natural beauty. <br /> Ms. Faulkner added to the sentiment of natural beauty, the pump station that is a complete eye <br /> sore by Sprout Farm. It is a monstrosity that she is concerned is devaluing properties, with <br /> minimal vegetation, and she would like some language to deter that, it needs to be covered. <br /> (It was noted to add to the Facilities chapter, an action for the Select Board to have a policy <br /> where town facilities are designed and constructed to be attractive and beautiful, matching the <br /> natural beauty of our Town and aesthetics of Cape Cod.) <br /> OS23 add develop a plan to protect the open space created by cluster subdivisions. Our bylaw <br /> changed, now you must put a conservation restriction on open space created by cluster <br /> subdivisions, but that wasn't always the case. If we are updating the Open Space and Rec <br /> Plan, which should identify finding mechanisms for land purchases and preservation, including <br /> mechanisms to protect open space created by cluster subdivisions. <br /> 4 <br />
