of TMs s,s <br /> z. <br /> Aannin Board <br /> c� <br /> 16 Great Neck Road NOYth <br /> .wlashpee, Aassachusetts 02649 <br /> protection, with water being the utmost importance. That refers to drinking and the natural <br /> beauty of ponds and rivers, with minimal impact, that blends with the Town's character, <br /> focusing on year-round housing for seniors and workforce, while developing harmonious <br /> neighborhoods in a thriving community through restoration, preservation, and protection of its <br /> finite resources. <br /> Ms. Waygan added that when talking about housing, we need to acknowledge our indigenous <br /> residents. We want to avoid gentrification of those native to the land. Seniors and working <br /> people yes, but also indigenous. After it says working people, add "and avoids gentrification of <br /> our current residents". We have a unique situation in Mashpee. We want to have policies that <br /> don't add to that. She would also like to mention the Flow Neutral Bylaw and wants to push <br /> this. After it says with sufficient infrastructure support, add "and in compliance with the Town's <br /> Flow Neutral Bylaw". The fact that our HPP didn't have the Flow Neutral Bylaw stalled the <br /> completion for months. We need to repeat it so people respect it. <br /> Ms. Waygan also considered, instead of natural beauty replace with "water quality". Those <br /> complete her comments. <br /> MOTION: <br /> Dennis Balzarini made a motion to take a 2-5 minute recess. Seconded by Karen <br /> Faulkner. All in favor. <br /> Mr. Tobin discussed two points that required a more elaborate discussion, the first being the <br /> Growth Policy, and the second comment regarding historical provisions and cultural provisions. <br /> Ms. Waygan didn't understand bullet two from their comments. <br /> Mr. Tobin stated that is what they want those changes to say in that paragraph, regarding the <br /> goals, policies, actions and time frames. He broke down how ours are prioritized not only by <br /> time but also priority, with a corresponding key code. Once he explained that in depth, they <br /> understood. Remember, he was just sending the draft for further comments. They then divided <br /> each section up amongst staff based on expertise and combed through it as if it were being <br /> submitted for the first time. These are some comprehensive comments. <br /> Mr. Tobin will make a good faith effort to update the data. The Hazard Mitigation Plan, he had <br /> to pin down Memos and the FEMA approval, which he added. Other things he added, H-19: <br /> "permitting and" and NR-3: "as well as incentivize", which were just making adjustments the <br /> Commission wanted, and they showed specific wording they wanted. <br /> N R-5: Partner with the Mashpee Water Dept. to identify areas for water supply. <br /> N R-15: Added "support sustainable water supply operation". <br /> 3 <br />
