Does anyone care to comment? The storyline out. Does the\ntoen have a position on this announcement?\nWe've unraveled part of the story of the mystery move planned for\nSaint Joseph’s shelter at 77 Winter St. The Catholic Charities are\ntargeting 460 West Main Street for their 50 bed shelter some time\nthis year. This location is a short stones throw from several West\nMain Street institutions including HyWest Elementary School, Steve\nand Sue's Par-Tee Freeze, and Barnstable Brewing.\nThe funding for this extravagance comes to us courtesy of the\nHousing Assistance Corporation (HAC) which received $3 million in\nARPA funds.\nAs the story goes...Alisa Magnotta, CEO of HAC, money in hand\nstormed into the Town Manager's office in early December, blurted\nout that SHE is moving the shelter to West Main and left. That was\nit. She spun around on her $450 heels and marched out of the\noffice.\nMark Ells was reportedly flabbergasted. He had no idea what to say\nand called Betty Ludtke to inform her of Magnotta's pronouncement.\nCouncilor Ludtke said that Mr. Ells was genuinely apologetic.\nCounty Commissioner Ron Bergstrom warned in the press when he\nawarded the funding to Magnotta that permitting may be a\nchallenge due to stigma against unhoused people. He said he saw\nthis first-hand during his time on the Barnstable County Assembly of\nDelegates.\n“There could be bumps in the road. Not everybody likes services\nprovided to the homeless—they would rather just pretend they\ndon't exist,” he said. But, he added, “besides the financial support\nthrough ARPA, you certainly have my support and the support of the\ncommissioners as you go through the process.”\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 3","text_sha256":"8e91a5fff24a60311f3548786acedd07c8e1c307b6ffebdef894ff41cf38e998","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0003-01.webp","sha256":"9361821dbd1323f2a73ac4daa5e95a756445542d5281a9171976ac300ac1dcc7","width":1017,"height":1329,"crop_points":[0,0,610.0,797.0],"bytes":128412}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0004","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":4,"printed_page":4,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":797.0,"text":"Apparently, it never occured to Bergstrom to pick up the phone and\nsmooth the path for this ambitious project.\nSusan Mazzarella, CEO of Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Fall\nRiver reportedly said, “This will help fulfill a critical need for an\naccessible shelter that provides wraparound services including\ntraining and education, medical respite and other health services.\nThis regional approach will also achieve a longstanding goal of the\nTown of Barnstable to shift human services programs away from the\ncentral Hyannis Business and visitor district.”\nl asked several Councilors from Barnstable about the statement that\nthis is a \"longstanding goal of the Town of Barnstable to shift human\nservices programs away from the central Hyannis Business and\nvisitor district.” A Councilor I spoke with replied, “When did we\nhave that meeting.\"\nI wrote Janes Kupfer, Director of Planning and Development to ask\nabout the permitting.

Some of your allegations | agreed\nwere zoning violations and | conducted enforcement actions concerning them. There were many more\nthough that | found were either not zoning violations or not under my authority and refused to conduct\nzoning enforcement actions, others | referred out. You obviously disagreed with several of my\ndeterminations, my actions and/or inactions.\nThe legislature has put only one process in place to appeal a zoning administrative official’s decision,\nthat is to make an appeal to the ZBA. | have informed you of that process diligently every step of the\nway. You told me yesterday that you had no intention of appealing my zoning decisions which is the\nonly lawful way to seek redress. You cited costs as your reason for not making an appeal, | can\nappreciate that. You also said at one point that you would take your case to a court of public\nopinion.

However, I'd\nbe the first to admit that don’t always get everything right and the ZBA is put in place by the legislature\nto decide if my actions were correct.

It was my hope that you would either hear from someone other than me that your\nassumptions are incorrect or that the ZBA might agree with you and compel enforcement of some of\nyour allegations. Either way there would be closure which we both could use.\nNow we are back to where we began in 2019. Your email below concerns the fourth neighbor of yours\nthat you have complained about.

Then |\ndecided you are new to your roles and | really wanted to send a couple of solution oriented suggestions.\nFirst, why am | writing now? At the last LCP meeting, Wendy Northcross recused herself from the\nhousing section of the LCP. This was years late. Years ago, she chose not to disclose her financial\ninterests that lead to her recusal from housing. This was years after ethics training due to her service on\nthe affordable housing trust fund. This was after years of her conversations about housing and STRs in\npublic and in private with other LCP members and staff. This was after issuing a recommendation that\nthe town extend a tax exemption to real estate investors like herself.\n| write because this is the sixth - 6th! - public official who has stepped aside, or off a board or committee\naltogether, but only after | raised the financial interest in STRs.\nHow many conflicts on other issues go unnoticed?\nHere are a few suggestions. Further below, | share more of my own experiences that emphasize the need\nfor changes.\nThe Apptication Form\nThe volunteer application form should:\n1) require disclosure of all financial interests that have any connection to the committee or board's\njurisdiction\n2) require the applicant to agree to provide such disclosure on a rolling basis during the term of service\n(this is necessary given how some people serve for years on end - Wendy on the Trust Fund Board is an\nexample of that.)\n3) require a signature acknowledging that full disclosure was made and commitment to disclose ona\nrolling basis\n4) arequirement, or at the very least, acknowledgment, that people will be expected to step off a board\nor committee if relevant information comes to light that was not disclosed.\nNumber 4 or some version of it is to avoid staff doing one of three things that it does:\n1) downplaying the problem when it arises (i.e., Costello's continuing participation after his recusal that\nothers forced was called a “procedural irregularity\" by legal. This did a good job of messaging to other\npublic officials that the town attorney office will be part of sweeping embarrassing conflicts out of public\nview.)\n2) asserting people who don't disclose and act in their own interests have rights to due process that\noutweighs the public's right to non-conflicted boards\n3) nothing, other than say go file a state ethics complaint. This signals that the town has no standards\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 39","text_sha256":"cf9e2e13a747b9e58b28557f78f3310aeeee45e621d94ff71e202c5b07607915","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0039-01.webp","sha256":"07fb26655f2c590be1332d659131230918ce140e4d6fefa647622a27be75cc37","width":1020,"height":1315,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,789.0],"bytes":134032}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0040","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":40,"printed_page":40,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"despite its own ethics code. And, the world knows state ethics complaints will take longer than the\nmatter the conflicted person is working on.\nA process to enable the Appointments Committee to receive vetted applicants so that the\nCommittee interviews eligible candidates on substance.\nDecades ago, | worked in a Governor's legal office. In the office next door was the Appointments person.\nShe didn't bring any appointments experience to the job. She and the General Counsel just set up a\nroutine vetting process to make sure things were done right. She shuttled continually between her office\nwhere she collected and reviewed applications and disclosures and the General Counsel's office who\nwas a second set of eyes. It was a process and a partnership to be sure Commissioners, judges, and\nmany 100s of appointees to state boards and committees were not conflicted. Making sure financial\ninterests are known is not hard. It just requires intention and a process amongst professional staff.\n| do not believe this job should be left to Councilors on the Appointments Committee as it has been.\nHistory shows it does not work. Councilors are effectively citizen volunteers from a range of\nbackgrounds, and do not generally have the background, time during interviews, or resources to perform\nthis function through a consistent process. The burden should not be put on a Committee to quiz\napplicants in public about disclosures and financial interests during interviews. It's also not fair to do\nthat to applicants during a public interview. If someone has a business interest, they shouldn't even be\nthere.\n| personally have wondered if someone like Andy, who seems to be process-oriented given his\nbackground, could develop a process for an administrative person to gather and review applicants'\nfinancial interests and to work with someone in legal to be sure disclosure information is collected,\ncomplete, signed, and reviewed before applications are turned over to the Appointments Committee?\nHere are the other experiences | have had that support the need for vetting applicants. You may be\nfamiliar so | put them last here in case you want to skip right over them....this is my broken record.\nTwo public officials with STR interests sat on the ZBA that handed me an adverse ruling on my STR land\nuse case. | believe that to be true because when my lawyer brought another case through the process for\nme, | asked him to ask for a conflicts check. | did that because at the first hearing, two members asked\nbizarre questions. For example, one asked if | \"saw money being exchanged\" at the Airbnb next door. He\nsaid if not, it cannot be acommercial operation. My quick search afterwards showed his personal\nfinancial interest in the outcome. Hence, the weird questions to influence the board. At that second\nhearing, those two members got up and left the room without saying | recuse. No one - not them, the\nchair, the town manager or town attorney would answer whether the ZBA issued the first decision while\nconflicted. | believe they both were. | believe everyone knew it and willfully looked away. They both still\nserve. One is now Chair. Both were later named to additional committees. Before that first ZBA hearing,\nmy lawyer from Boston told me to set expectations because Barnstable boards are widely known to be\npacked with business interests.\nLater, one of them (current ZBA chair) pushed a proposal related to housing tax exemptions as a member\nof the Housing Committee. Based on what | knew of his business, | believed it would benefit his\nbusiness. That proposal soon came out as a staff proposal. | wrote to staff to ask whether it was the\nsame proposal that the Housing Committee member pushed. | said please know people are watching all\nthis.

We may benefit from a\nmore narrowly focused approach to our zoning which better represents the interests of\nlocal businesses and the residents from surrounding areas.\nWest Main Street is considered a Highway Business (HB) District. This is the same zoning\nas Rt. 132 and Rt. 28. Highway Business Districts \"strive to encourage investment in\nBarnstable's aging commercial corridors.” They allow for allow for drive-throughs for\nbanks, retail uses, and restaurants and other food service establishments by Special\nPermit. And they allow for a range of housing options including two-family and multifamily\ndwellings up to 38 feet or three stories (whichever is less).\nThere are other possibilities for zoning for West Main Street including:\n1. Village Business (VB) District\nEncourages small-scale, pedestrian-friendly businesses rather than large commercial\ndevelopments. Supports mixed-use buildings with residential units above retail spaces,\nfostering a more walkable, community-oriented environment. Could reduce large parking\nlot requirements, making space for more green areas or small plazas.\nBarnstable Village and Marston’s Mills are considered fine examples of a Village Business\n(VB) Districts.\n2.

Could include streetscape\nimprovements, like bike lanes, benches, and better pedestrian crossings.\nWest Main is not a city and we're not a village.

The plan identifies key contributing factors like\ninsufficient housing production, high housing costs, and systemic inequities. It proposes\nsolutions across multiple sectors, including increasing affordable housing development,\nproviding rental assistance, and supporting individuals experiencing homelessness with\nservices like shelter and case management. Collaboration between state agencies, local\ncommunities, and non-profit organizations is central to the plan's implementation, aiming to\ncreate a comprehensive and coordinated response to housing needs across the\nCommonwealth.\nHousing Target\nThis plan sets a target of adding 222,000 homes to the available housing stock over ten\nyears, including homes of all types, sizes, and affordability, in all regions of the\nCommonwealth.\nCape Cod Specifics\nThe \"A Home for Everyone\" report examined Cape Cod needs specifically and reported that:\n\"Cape Cod, the Islands, and Western Massachusetts lost an estimated 9,000 year-round\nhomes to seasonal conversion from 2010 to 2020.\" page 16\nThe Plan identified the Cape as needing less than 2.5%\nadditional year-round housing units between 2025-2035.\nThis is a contrast to housing needs elsewhere in Massachusetts that need up to 10% more\nhousing units in the same period.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 71","text_sha256":"4b4d194ab1519799e18312fef060e35848fe2af1c0248e4aadbe12ef338bc9e5","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0071-01.webp","sha256":"5e11abb77109edf2e799db44b7f7eb92c1c17445e584e740ba88f2b1ea78eb1f","width":1019,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,792.0],"bytes":109096}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0072","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":72,"printed_page":72,"width_points":610.0,"height_points":793.0,"text":"A Home for Everyone.

It proposed to change\nzoning (a la Hyannis Form Based Code) in village centers in Barnstable Village, Osterville and they\nadded for the first time Centerville. The former two villages were in other docs earlier in time. And\nit proposed to do away with single family zoning 1/2 mile around those village centers The name\nwas Changed from Form Based Code, which people by then had a sense of, to \"Design Driven\"\ndevelopment. A benign name. No one knows what it means. | looked it up -it is form based code.\n(Why rebrand?) We asked Mr. Ells to come to an OVA meeting and one of the things we asked\nabout was this zoning change proposal. It was in my hands in black and white. And on video. And\nup on a screen. He replied over and over that there was no plan to change zoning. | said read these\nwords, Again, no plan to change zoning. He either did not know what planning was doing or was\ndenying it publicly. There is no third option for his response. Later, | did a short record request to\nfind the origin of the pay people not to short-term rent because it was described as being from\npublic forums and surveys and | knew it was not. In that batch of records were documents that\nshow the Planning Dept telling the HPP consultant that the town was concerned about the\nlanguage of zoning proposals in the \"public facing documents\" particularly in villages that are\n“sensitive about Zoning” or something close to that. So they edited the documents to be less\nclear. | did a document redline compare of the Jan 2023 draft to the Spring 2024 draft and you see\nthey redlined out the names of the Villages and the reference to the 1/2 miles around them. The\nmeaning was still there, but the words were so softened even | had to read them a few times to\nsay this is simply an effort to mask the point - but the point remained.

The second truck has no commercial\nmarkings, so Inspectional Services claims | can’t prove it is acommercial vehicle. However, it is filled\nwith tools and usually has a ladder strapped to the roof—clear indicators that it is used for commercial\npurposes.\nThe truck with signage is over 20 years old. When it starts and idles in the driveway each morning, | can\nhear it from my living room. There is code about idling trucks, but | think it is unenforceable.\nThe second picture shows two commercial trucks parked on the street, along with a yard full of\ndilapidated equipment.\nThe boat and RV should be stored at the rear of the house. There are explicit regulations regarding both.\nBoats carry $300 a day in fines, but those are not being enforced. Inspectional Services won't enforce\nboat regulations, and Marine and Environmental Services has told me they didn’t write the code and that\nwhoever did should handle enforcement. No kidding.\nThere is no explicit rule preventing work trucks from parking on the street along a private road. The code\ncurrently says you can’t park more than one commercial truck in your front yard, but it doesn’t mention\nthe street. Street parking needs to be explicitly addressed in both the home occupation and rental\nlicense agreements.\nFinally, my favorite abutter to the rear. He has substantially toned down his unpermitted equipment yard\nand downsized his trucks since Ells personally intervened a month ago.\nBut he still has two trucks in his downsized equipment yard. He is allowed one truck, one trailer, and no\nunenclosed storage. Throwing a tarp over equipment does not qualify as an enclosure.\nPreviously, the issue in this yard wasn't parking or storage. The issue was the staging of equipment each\nmorning - assembling crews, loading and testing equipment and weekend maintenance activities. These\nmay have been addressed by the Town Manager We're still hopeful.\nThere is also the issue of noise and light trespass. From the Wendy’s ZBA hearings, | learned that\nfloodlights and noise from automated order-takers can be regulated when a business abuts a residential\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 119","text_sha256":"86de084275d291a90bf68675cb581511b619f30f335fac90f3314b8c1f538f15","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0119-01.webp","sha256":"0027a58aefd2b0f15c8ac0da100ae1119f914a0ea0f2d2337a88b2f2b2814973","width":1029,"height":1327,"crop_points":[0,0,617.0,796.0],"bytes":120604}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0120","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":120,"printed_page":120,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"area.

My neighbors are now a little more cautious and restrained since |\nraised awareness about unpermitted commercial activities over the past 36 months. It’s no longer the\nfree-for-all we saw during COVID.\nMy point is that | shouldn’t have to go to the Town Manager, my councilor (who won’t talk to me), or\nappeal to the ZBA at a cost of $800 for routine enforcement. And it’s not my fault that the Town lacks the\nCapacity to address this situation promptly. | shouldn’t be vilified by town officials for simply asking for\nservices.\nThe code changes I’ve suggested address the real-world nuances I’ve observed. They would provide the\nTown with clear grounds for enforcement actions and fines. | don’t care that the Town has limited\ncapacity to Collect fines—the goal is compliance with a clearly stated, understandable set of rules.\nLicenses to operate businesses or rental properties should be suspended or revoked when the rules are\nnot followed.\nMost importantly, it must be acknowledged that it will always be cheaper to ignore the rules than to pay\nfOr a Proper business location anywhere on the Cape. Therefore, non-compliance should be expected,\nand enforcement strategies must reflect this modern reality. Bad actors should be pushed off Cape,\nwhile business owners who respect their neighbors’ concerns should be encouraged to grow and provide\nmuch-needed services to the community.\nThank you!

Let's look at those.\n1. Surveys\n= The Planning Department's surveys have no controls to fairly measure resident\nviews: live anywhere, vote often, that kind of thing. In every survey, it's easy to find\nvarious business and paid interest representatives pushing Planning Department\nsurveys out to members on social media. Why wouldn't they?\n= Records show a week before the survey was to close, less than 300 residents\nresponded. Assuming the response rate doubled or tripled in the final days, it's ~1% -\n2% of the public. This is the same as the form-based codes “pretty picture visual\nimage“ survey“, where ~1% of Hyannis or .003% of Barnstable participated and was\nlater declared terrific public input.\n= In arecent housing survey (for the LCP, which is mirroring the HPP and has the\nsame consultant), the Planning Department published the names of residents with\ntheir answers. The American Association for Public Opinion Research counts that as\none of four “condemned survey practices.\" Moreover, the Planning Department didn't\ntell people it was going to do that highly unusual, condemned thing.\n= The survey questions are often guided to an end. Example: The Planning\nDepartment's STR survey omitted any question about the key issue of people who\nnever live here but buy and commoditize our homes as STRs v. Cape families who\nlive here and rent for some period time in the summer. We saw that omission in a\ndraft and asked for such questions to be included. They were not.\n2. Focus Groups\n= The Planning Department list of who it invited to Community Focus Groups was not\nthe actual public. (It said it didn’t have the list of who actually participated — that was\nin the records of a consultant, which is a separate problem discussed below.) Many\nwere people whose job it is to listen to the public and reflect public sentiment in the\nHPP and who had roles that gave them influence in the HPP outside of the\nCommunity Focus Groups.\no The vast majority were as follows: Ells, Cylburn, Norcross, Shufelt, the Town\nCouncil, multiple people from HAC (even more piled into one Focus Group),\nthe Housing Committee, people from county government, people from\nHabitat, Rob Brennan/CapeBuilt, Telman/850 Main developer, Jake\nDewey/developer, BID founder Young, someone from Yarmouth government.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 138","text_sha256":"29a711a1adb619821ad2653a1fa64dd67d289986804f4f8ccb890afab24206cf","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0138-01.webp","sha256":"2d2de1305ab1df29f80c1d6492763a97904e47ae29f652f0c0a37479f36d7a54","width":1020,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,791.0],"bytes":120834}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0139","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":139,"printed_page":139,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"= The Planning Department told the Housing Committee (at a meeting with little to no\npublic attendance) that it was putting together Focus Groups.

(Records showed\nthe Planning Department and consultant later referring to the B List, so the answer\nto me was also untrue.) | then let other citizens know to ask to get in a Focus\nGroup.\n* The Planning Department selects people who have other influence opportunities,\npeople whose job it is to listen to the public, people with financial interests in\noutcomes, people who are paid to influence outcomes by their employer and then\nblends those with a few members of the public and calls it \"Community Input.“ All\ninterests need to be heard, but they should not be blended with residents’ views.\nThe way this is run, there is no uninfected measure of resident views.\n3. 1:1 Interviews\n= The Planning Department said some Focus Group participants would be\ninterviewed 1:1 afterwardé.told me that the consultant would select people for this\nincremental input and that would depend on “affiliations\" and “ideas.”\n* Records show the Planning Department gave the consultant a list for 1:1 interviews.\nIt included: Matt Levesque, a HAC employee, a HAC Board member, CCAIOR CEO\nCastle, Cape Chamber CEO Niedzwicki, Cape Cod Young Professionals, Habitat for\nHumanity, Shufelt, Carey (the former Housing Committee chair after he left),\npossibly someone from Yarmouth interested in homesharing. The consultant then\nasked for others, particularly on homelessness, and the Planning Department\nswapped some names. This is not a measure of the actual public.\n4. HPP “Community Forums”\n= One sign in sheet showed ~17 people. Some were town employees and officials.\n5. Scrubbing “Public Facing‘ Documents for Vagueness\n* Records from 2022 show the Planning Department scrubbing “Goals and\nStrategies” — “Elizabeth has a lot of concern with the wording of several of the Goals\nand Strategies being public facing in their current format”. Another document\nreferenced sensitivity in several villages about zoning changes. The actual goals\nand strategies were not a concern — just the wording in documents the public would\nsee. Staff then produced redlines which it gave to the consultant. When | asked for\nthose, the town told me it needed to get those from the consultant.\n* Same thing, another year. The Planning Department changed the January 2023\nHPP draft (never made public) when it issued the May 2024 HPP plan. It overhauled\nthe section about changing Zoning in specific villages to remove which villages, and\nto delete the reference to changing single-family zoning % mile around those\nvillages. Staff did not issue a redline; we created one to see what was changed. It\naccomplishes the Planning Department's goal of being vague to avoid public\nreaction while maintaining meaning.

If you are talking at any meeting even a\nfraction as much as the Council is talking, it distorts the purpose of the council meeting. It is for them to\ntalk to each other. | have said to a number of people in the past few months | feel the Council here over\nmany years has been trained to be passive. If | was on the Council | would ask you tO answer questions in\na pointed succinct way in 10 minutes or less and if you cannot, to return to the next meeting with more\nsuccinct prepared answers. Second, it would be so helpful if you gave a heads up On what is coming\ndown the pike - for example, like details of the form based code in a way that is understandable to lay\npersons when the business interests were given access to the Town's consultant. SO much ging On and\nthe public generally gets word when it is time for a 1st read. That's late. Foresight on big issues matters.\nOn the responsiveness, | have a bankers box. Will share with you any day of the week.\nConsider going back to a request you received a number of years ago for a citizens’ Ombudsman. That\nwas a proactive request in the face of non-responsiveness. | can't recall the details Only the ask, | bet it\nsets out the ongoing lack of responsiVeness.\nAnother example - the Planning Department's so-called “Public Forums\" on ADUs and Form Based\nZoning. | know you already know this because | believe | wrote to you about it at the time.\nThe \"Public Forums\" were identified by the Planning Dept as a means to 1) share public questions and 2)\nanswers to them.

He\nwas referred to us a member of WHOI. He is top notch.\nHave a read...\nit was a pleasure meeting you out in Hyannis last week. Here are some of my initial thoughts\nbased on our site walk that might be hetpful to you as you start to think about your bourgeoning\nproject:\nThe bogs appear (from afar) to have succeeded to a forested red mapte swamp. Eric S. and |\nobserved one remnant earthen berm, but the associated water control structure had been\nremoved long ago. Given the current condition of the bogs and proximity to head of tide, I’m not\nsure if there is a need to intervene there. It may all be salt marsh one day (and that’s ok). That\nbeing said it might be worth it to conduct a recon to identify other areas of berms and water\ncontrol structures. Those structures and berms could be removed to allow unimpeded access by\nthe tides over time. It’s unclear how Stewart’s Creek has been manipulated in that reach of the\nsystem (the early aerials and topo maps don’t provide significant help in determining a baseline\ncondition), but the channel appears to be straightened, over-widened and shallow. It’s also\npushed up against the western valley wall (golf course side), which isn’t typical geomorphology,\nespecially when we see a straight channel reach associated with it.\nBoth Stewart’s and Joshua’s Creek have culverted sections from their headwater ponds under W.\nMain Street and Scudder Ave. These would be incredibly expensive to daylight. As | mentioned, it\nwould be worth speaking with Brad Chase, who is with MA Division of Marine Fisheries. He woutd\nbe able to provide {or point to) some historical fisheries resources, discuss the current state of\nthe resource, and what would potentially need to be done to improve it (if anything). He tives in\nHarwich, so he might even be willing to swing by at some point.\nVisually, it’s unclear if the southern end of the peninsula has been filled. Eric S. mentioned there\nhad been some on site soit sampting conducted which could hetp answer that question. Even if\nthere was fill placed here, it would be incredibly expensive (and possibly cost-prohibitive) to\nremove.\nAnecdotally, the estuary appears to be tidally restricted. Very little Spartina - mostly phragmites,\nareas of die-off, etc. | haven’t read the Woods Hote Group post-restoration monitoring report for\nthe Corps culvert, but my understanding is that there hasn’t been significant ecological\nimprovement (if any) in the system since the cutvert was installed. | think its critical for you to\nbetter understand the design and function of the Corps’ controt structure - What is the O-+M for\nthe structure? How was it designed?

This dedication by so many is commendable. The detailed\nrecommendations and strategies threading through these plans include: preserving our\nnatural resources, enhancing the collective character and appearance of our residential\nneighborhoods, protecting our unique but fragile ecosystem, addressing public health and\nSafety issues, enhancing an island-wide communication technology system, and much\nmore. An incisive quote from the writer Margaret Wheatley accents the work at hand is:\n“There iS nO power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.”\nAs a citizen and registered voter here on the Island, | am writing to clearly let you know\nwhat | care about. It iS a call to action. Once long-established residential neighborhoods\nbecome inundated with colliding commercial business interests, there is no turning back.\nYou will have made a Faustian deal that forever negatively impacts residential zone\nintegrity, personal property values, environmental protections, fresh water supplies,\nwastewater management, “Green Community” aspirations, and much more.\nThere is an urgent need, for example, to reconcile rapidly expanding commercial needs\nand interests of Martha’s Vineyard with the core value of preserving and protecting its\nresidential neighborhoods. The Island-wide leadership cannot simply throw up its hands,\nas if overwhelmed, and quit on its residents, by allowing more encroachment of\na\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 181","text_sha256":"973e954eec3f6be0e7d66724134c4f0c4c3a1198cba7494c2f3042a1223910b7","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0181-01.webp","sha256":"b6acbe46936c0c1aee501dcaec9941e141bbc24f369faaa2ff2a59d79e0aae7c","width":1020,"height":1317,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,790.0],"bytes":116170}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0182","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":182,"printed_page":182,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":794.0,"text":"commercial entities into residential zones, seemingly lacking the political will to enforce\nexisting bylaws and ordinances. This will come at the enormous compounded expense of\nan already ecologically fragile Island.\nMy mother taught me to “clean in front of your own doorstep first, and the whole\nneighborhood will be clean.” A slow drive around the down Island residential\nneighborhoods today, while the trees are still leafless, reveals commercial vehicle density,\nominous looking sheds, appalling blight, and contaminating conditions at nearly every\nturn. There appear to be little to no zoning bylaws enforcement at this time. If town building\ninspectors and board of health agents are inundated, then provide adequate resources for\nconsistent and proper enforcement.\nThere is an over-saturation of commercial vehicles and equipment on Martha’s Vineyard.\nThe ratio and number of light and heavy commercial vehicle circulation has risen to an\nalarming all-time high. | learned recently that there are now over 1,300 property\nmanagement and related businesses on the Island in 2024. Meanwhile, there are no full-\ntime veterinarians. And, the longstanding affordable housing crisis moves along barely\ndented, let alone solved. This is astonishing and telling. Is this what we value?\nWorking together, town leaders must develop a short and long term plan that allows for\nCommercial businesses to thrive outside of residential zones, including more designated\nspace for commercial vehicle parking, equipment and material storage. We must preserve\nthe beauty and vitality of our nationally and internationally admired Island. Residential\nareas Should not be put in the position of accommodating and sacrificing lovely, peaceful,\nhigh-value neighborhoods for out-of-compliance businesses and blighted properties.\nUsing commercial businesses to renovate and maintain our Island hospital, schools,\ncommunity services, and YMCA are no-brainers. Those improvements are not at issue.\nThere must be a more reasonable balance or ratio between renovating and building new\nhomes, which is good for business, and building more much-needed affordable housing\nfor young families, employer staff, and senior citizens.\nIt is critical that we review where the Island was 20 years ago and where it is today. The\nmost recent master plans are a good place to start. Further, we must partner together as\nIsland municipalities on issues that have “high stakes“ regional impact such as adequate\nfresh water supplies, wastewater management, land use, affordable housing, commercial\nvehicle circulation, air and noise pollution, chemical fertilizers and pesticides, blight and\nunsafe property management, mining expansion, and so on. We should also partner with\nexemplar resilient communities statewide that have conquered or are creatively and\neffectively addressing similar issues.\nMy strong recommendation is that we move forward together with accurate and real time\nemPirical data to guide the work. These data have been difficult to gather. Think long game\nthis year about some of the proposed warrant articles dealing with zoning bylaw changes\nand so-called \"industrial overlay“ zones that are requesting your vote. Although we may be\nplaying catch up, if leadership does not pause and take stock collaboratively regarding the\nroad we are on, our residential neighborhoods will no longer be a pride point for our Island,\nour guests, and our precious grandchildren.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 182","text_sha256":"6afe4390dc8bae050532e258ee29d09d1d6a7143c055cf0033f6fb528a70e04e","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0182-01.webp","sha256":"e88554f576af145dfeb07af37515a5b759550ee247ae928d69110579ac23dbec","width":1022,"height":1324,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,794.0],"bytes":178804}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0183","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":183,"printed_page":183,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":793.0,"text":"In closing, | volunteer to serve on and lead an Island-wide Master Plan Implementation\nCommittee (MPIC).

The UCC and the Wampanoag have both acknowledged the Rights of\nNature on the Cape.\nThe notion that we should live in harmony with nature is not new. Henry Beston cautioned\nthat we've lost touch with the natural rhythms of the earth and have become too focused\non material possessions and technological advancements back in 1928 in his book The\nOutermost House (1928). More recently David R. Boyd authored The Rights of Nature: A\nLegal Revolution That Could Save the World (2017).The basic premise of this book is that if\nnature has rights, humans have responsibilities.\nRights of Nature is potentially a foundational argument for our ongoing efforts to protect\nour water in Barnstable.

I have reviewed the appeals and information received from the\nPlanning Department regarding the property ownership/addresses of the appellants to determine\nif any of them has standing to sue sufficient to get to the next step of proving they are persons\naggrieved with a valid basis for appealing a decision or inaction by the Hyannis Main Street\nWaterfront Historic District Commission (HHDC). I am informed that the subject application of\nthe appeals is an application for 307 Main Street filed with the HHDC pursuant to G.L. Chapter\n40C.\nIn my opinion, based upon my review of the appeals and information provided to me by the\nPlanning Department, none of them has standing and therefore none of them can show that he is\na “person aggrieved” with standing to sue, therefore this board does not need to consider and\nhear the appeals, If the appellants believe they are aggrieved by this board’s decision not to act\non their appeals, they can file a complaint in superior court, where they will be required to prove\nthe same basic elements of standing to sue.\nIn support of this opinion, I provide the following. Chapter 40C provides:\nSection 12A. Any person aggrieved by a determination of the commission, or by the\nfinding of a person or persons making a review. if the provisions of section twelve are\nincluded in a local ordinance or by-law, may, within twenty days after the filing of the\nnotice of such determination or such finding with the city or town clerk, appeal to the\nsuperior court sitting in equity for the county in which the city or town is situated. The\ncourt shall hear all pertinent evidence and shall annul the determination of the\ncommission if it finds the decision of the commission to be unsupported by the evidence\nor to exceed the authority of the commission. or may remand the case for further action\nby the conimission or make such other decree as justice and equity may require.

[Emphasis added]\nThe Town Code provides in Article III, Hyannis Main Street Waterfront District, Section 112-33\nin pertinent part:\n“B. Any person or persons aggrieved by a determination of the Commission, or by its failure to\nact as specified in this article, may, within 20 calendar days after the filing of such notice with\nthe Town Clerk, appeal to the Committee in writing. The Committee shall hear all pertinent\nevidence and act upon such appeals within 30 calendar days after the filing of such appeal.

Any person or persons aggrieved by a determination of the Commission, or by its failure to\nact as specified in this article, or by a finding of the Committee, may appeal to the Superior\nCourt sitting in equity for Barnstable County.” Section 112-33.B. Section 112-33 does not cite c.\n40C, section 12A, as required by the statute.\nI note that another section of the Ordinance, Section 112-19 (Article II, Historic Landmarks)\ndoes cite to the appeal provisions of c. 40C. Specifically, 112-19 provides: \"Any person\naggrieved by a designation, amendment or rescission of a landmark or a decision on an\napplication for a certificate may file a written appeal with the Commission for a review by a\nperson or persons of competence and experience in such matters, designated by the Town\nCouncil. The appeal must be filed within 21 days of the filing of the Commission's action with\nthe Town Clerk. The reviewing authority, after due and proper notice, shall conduct a hearing on\nthe Commission's action and either affirm, modify or rescind said action.” Section 112-19B\nprovides: “Any person aggrieved by a decision of the reviewing authority concerning such an\nappeal may seek further review in the Superior Court within 30 days of a formal decision or\nwithin 60 days of the filing of the appeal if the reviewing authority fails to act. Such review shall\nbe made in the same manner as provided in § 12A of Chapter 40C of the General Laws.”\nNonetheless, because Section 112-33, the appeals provision for the HHDC does not cite to c.\n40C, s. 12A, the appeals procedure must be as defined in Section 112-33, including appeals to\nsuperior court.\nTurning to what constitutes a “person aggrieved” is defined in c. 40C, section 5 (“Definitions”)\nas “the applicant, an owner of adjoining property, an owner of property within the same historic\ndistrict as the property within one hundred feet of said property lines and any charitable\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 210","text_sha256":"09ba8a0c35b6e822e355c132c3608cb6b83dc89ac34793f1b49afa22ca3da055","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0210-01.webp","sha256":"371683950fb95ffdfe917727b892a5c01dc1a89bdfb564ebff832c16545d709d","width":1019,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,792.0],"bytes":140516}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0211","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":211,"printed_page":211,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"corporation in which one of its purposes is the preservation of historic structures or districts...”\nG.L.c. 40C, section 5.\nEven though Section 112-33 does not cite to c. 40C, in my opinion, a court would look to the\nstatutory definition and/or case law regarding what constitutes a “person aggrieved.”\nI find no case law regarding standing as an aggrieved person under c. 40C, however, there is\nsignificant case law regarding what is required for standing in the zoning context that by analogy\na court would likely apply to appeals under c. 40C and/ the ordinance at Section 112-33.\nChapte#0A, Section 17 gives the right of appeal to any person aggrieved by a decision of the\nBoard of Appeals, Specifically, the statute states as follows: “Chapter 40A, section 17 provides\nfor judicial review by any “person aggrieved” by a decision of the Board of Appeals or any\nspecial permit granting authority or by the failure of the Board of Appeals to take final action\ncolicerning any appeal, final action, or petition...” Case law has found that status as an\n“aggrieved person” is a jurisdictional prerequisite to judicial review of zoning appeal, and\nowners of abutting property have a rebuttable presumption of aggrievement. Riley v. Janco\nCent., Inc., 38 Mass. App. 984 (1995); see also Marotta v. Bd. of Appeals of Revere, 336 Mass.\n199, 202-203 (1957) (“the Superior Court had no jurisdiction to consider the case unless an\nappeal...was taken by an aggrieved person.”)\nAs with Chapter 40C, Chapter 40A, section 17 itself contains no definition for “person\naggrieved.” The case law is well- established, however, that a person aggrieved within the\nmeaning of G. L. c. 40A is one who “suffers some infringement of his legal rights.” Nihtila v.\nCity of Brockton ZBA, 19 LCR 395 (2011), quoting Kenner _v. Bd. Of Appeals of Chatham, 459\nMass. 115, 117 (2011); quoting Marashlian, 421 Mass. At 721. To establish such aggrievement,\nthe plaintiffi must assert \"a plausible claim of a definite violation of a private right, a private\nproperty interest, or a private legal interest.” Harvard Sq. Defense Fund. Inc. v. Planning Bd. of\nCambridge, 27 Mass. App. Ct. 491, 493 (1989). See Standerwick v. Zoning Bd. of Appeals of\nAndover, 447 Mass. 20, 27, 849 N.E.2d 197 (2006).\nThe right or interest asserted by a plaintiff claiming aggrievement must be one that G. L. c. 40A\nis intended to protect. See id. at 27-28; Circle Lounge & Grille, Inc. v. Board of Appeal_of\nBoston, 324 Mass. 427, at 430-431 (1949).\nUnder G.L. c. 40A, section 11, “parties in interest,” (i.e. abutters and others entitled to notice of\nproceedings), are presumed to have standing; however that presumption is rebuttable. Marotta,\n336 Mass, at 204, Abutters are initially entitled to the rebuttable, presumptive standing under\nGL. ¢. 40A, §11, and the Town of Bamstable Zoning Ordinance. Marashlian v. Zoning Bd. of\nAppeals of Newburyport, 421 Mass. 719 (1996).\nIn order to maintain the presumption, once challenged as to standing, Plaintiffi is required to “put\nforth credible evidence to substantiate a claim of injury to her legal rights which is more than\nspeculative.” Id. Once the presumption has been successfully rebutted \"the point of jurisdiction\nwill be determined on all the evidence with no benefit to the plaintiffs from the presumption as\nsuch.\" Marotta, 336 Mass. at 204.“A review of standing based on ‘all the evidence’ does not\nrequire that the factfinder ultimately find a plaintiff's allegations meritorious. To do so would be\nto deny standing, after the fact, to any unsuccessful plaintiff. Rather, the plaintiff nvust put forth\ncredible evidence to substantiate his allegations.” See, Marashlian, supra.

Board of Zoning\nAppeal of Cambridge, 74 Mass. App. Ct. 804, 809 (2009). The plaintiff bears the burden to\n“demonstrate, not merely speculate, that there has been some infringement of [her] legal rights,“\nDenneny v. Zoning Bd. of Appeals of Seekonk, 59 Mass. App. Ct. 208,211, 794 N.E.2d 1269\n(2003) (plaintiff lacked standing where there was no evidentiary showing of §17 “aggrievement”\nother than plaintiff's own “speculative and conclusory” testimony), and “that [her] injury is\nspecial and different from the concerns of the rest of the community.“ Standerwick, 447 Mass. at\n33, quoting Barvenik, 33 Mass, App. Ct. at 132 (internal quotations omitted). Courts have held\nthat “credible evidence“ should be evaluated not only by a quantitative, but also by a qualitative,\nanalysis. Nihtila, at 397, citing Butler v. City of Waltham, 63 Mass. App. Ct. 435,441\n(2005)(“[c]onjecture, personal opinion, and hypothesis“ are not to be considered “credible\nevidence.*) Id. Presumptive standing vanishes once the defendant has either proffered evidence\nshowing that a claimed basis for standing is not well founded, or alternatively, if the defendant\ncan rely on plaintiff's lack of factual foundation for asserting a claim of “aggrievement.” See\nStanderwick, at 35-36.\nThe Court in Kenner, supra, narrowed the requisite showing of aggrievement as requiring “a\nshowing of more than minimal or slightly appreciable harm. Kenner at 121. The Kenner court\nheld that the \"adverse effect on a plaintiff must be substantial enough to constitute actual\naggrievement such that there can be no question that the plaintiff should be afforded the\nOpportunity to seek a remedy.“ Kenner at 122. The Court also held that simply being impacted\nby a ZBA Decision is not enough, on its own to constitute §17 “aggrievement.” See also,\nTwarowski v. Ukstins, 19 LCR 431 (2011); Martin v. Corporation of the Presiding Bishop of the\nChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, 434 Mass. 141, 147 (plaintiffihad standing under\nzoning bylaw where “towering church steeple would be visible from most, if not all, of her\nproperty, both during day and when lit at night); Denneny. supra at 211 (plaintiff must be able to\ndemonstrate factually that there has been “some“ infringement of legal rights). The adverse\neffect on a plaintiff must be substantial enough to constitute actual aggrievement, providing an\nactual claim for which the plaintiff deserves an opportunity to seek redress. That is, the analysis\nis whether the plaintiffs have put forth credible evidence to show that they will be injured or\nharmed by proposed project to the abutting property, not merely whether they will be “impacted\nby such changes.\nIn this case, based on the information provided to me by the Planning Department, the three\nappellants are not direct abutters to the subject property. Moreover, they are not within 100 feet\nof the suhject property, even if within the same zoning district according to another list Planning\nprovided. Finally, they do not purport to be part of a charitable corporation as noted inc. 40C\nsection 5. It would be their burden to state that in their appeal if they thought they met that part\nof the standard and there is no such mention, just the 3 names and their addresses on the 3\nseparate appeals.\nIt is well-settled law in the zoning context that persons may file a complaint in court and get past\nthe first hurdle of proving standing but not meet the next hurdle of aggrievement. In this case,\nnone of the three appellants even has standing, so none can get to the next step of being able to\nshow aggrievement.\nI recommend that the Committee decline to hear the appeals because the appellants Jack\nstanding.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 212","text_sha256":"67b3849b82d3fa39d73220c995c993cad9987398a889002a5678b84a81005621","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0212-01.webp","sha256":"1d094e6d735093d0b68027a18a15e896013c396dbbf66a8c0117ff40ec8a123b","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":160908}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0213","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":213,"printed_page":213,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":793.0,"text":"Fair, Marylou\nFrom: heather hunt ee.\nSent: Tuesday, March 19, 2024 9:29 AM\nTo: Felicia Penn quyyepeemmmmes,\nSubject: town code on inquiries if needed\n| read the media coverage of a leaked preliminary draft document and an anonymous letter.\nSending along a Town Code provision that enables the Council to fact find.\nWhen | read all this | thought how fortunate the Town is to have Craig's professional experience on the\nCouncil.\nSection 2-10\nInquiries and Investigations.\nThe town council may require any town officer or member of a board or commission to appear before it,\nand give such information as it may require in relation to an office held by such person, its function, and\nperformance.

I'll be going out of town for a few days and haven't finished my very critical review. Here\nare a few of the notations in that report that, | think, bear really close scrutiny.\nFor starters, their “stakeholders did NOT include tax paying residents of Cape Cod. To me, that is a\nred flag right there. Why would they go out of their way to avoid residents of Cape Cod ??\nOn Page 5, “The region’s rural and suburban development patterns have resulted in\nlittle housing diversity, limited infrastructure, and_a car-dependent society\nthat has created and exacerbated Cape Cod’s most critical challenges. The\ncurrent abundance of single-family homes and the policies in place that\nencourage them do not meet the region's needs*\nMy comments: A car-dependent society has created and exacerbated Cape's most critical\nchallenges. ??? How is this supported ?? What documentation was used to create this bizarre\nstatement ?? Further down on page 5 they state that the pandemic exacerbated several key\nchallenges impacting the ability of people to access housing. Which is it ?? Cars or the pandemic\n2? Who says the policies in place that encourage them do not meet the region's needs....... What\nARE the region's needs ?? A car-dependent society exists on Cape Cod just as it does everywhere\nelse in this country!!! Cars are here to stay; they are not going anywhere.\nOn Page 7...... \"guiding principles which surfaced throughout the stakeholder process.”\nMy comments: But NO tax paying residents were in the stakeholder group !!!!_ There is a group\ncalled “interested citizens........ Who would possibly be in that group ??? How can you have\n“guiding principles” surface when you have eliminated the majority of Cape residents ??\nSo, my hope is that you all will read and absorb this attempted takeover of Cape Cod by the Mass\nHousing Authority. We do NOT need to eliminate single family zoning in order to provide our\nworkers with some housing assistance. We do need to know specifically how many units are\nneeded before proceeding. To my knowledge “density” has not been the preferred housing\nexperience for most individuals\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 215","text_sha256":"240fcea2f98779fd932718b660a49e7e67f1e6debb0f6ac3e29d628993ca1803","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0215-01.webp","sha256":"111991ec10ee3990b789c98489b4466d9a82a9497d0286f1335eb445e7b6dcb0","width":1019,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,791.0],"bytes":144854}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0216","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":216,"printed_page":216,"width_points":691.0,"height_points":853.0,"text":"Natalie Pittenger\ni\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263\n216","text_sha256":"d574f801fb6d1efcce380dbd11d270d2e62897bf0c8dd8d5eac3644ca90f6f13","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":["short transcription"],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0216-01.webp","sha256":"1940f5613fa0e3feea34dba095747c1ec9bc3b25efd66f9def8efbbee56f45e7","width":1152,"height":1422,"crop_points":[0,0,691.0,853.0],"bytes":8644}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0217","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":217,"printed_page":217,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"Fair, Marylou\neS ——\nFrom: NATALIE PITTENGER <i.\nSent: Friday, March 8, 2024 11:21 AM\nTo: terki| inct3ludtke rentervillepcté ai\nJohncrowprecinc._ 4; charliebloon felicia ry\n=>\nSubject: Correlation\nAttachments: Meaghan Mort CCt letter.docx\nHello All,\nPlease see the attached CCT article from back in December and see if you see any correlation to the\npoison letter.\nThanks,\nNatalie\nNatalie Pittenger\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 217","text_sha256":"b98f80122496e0464f045c18b305ace2f14a7348702a5c17d7c294eb2c9bb370","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0217-01.webp","sha256":"02833302d575f65a27c05904be27e64a8c384bb4193d9678d9786771c3d60e23","width":1019,"height":1317,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,790.0],"bytes":25904}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0218","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":218,"printed_page":218,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"Fair, Marylou\nFrom: Felicia Penn SS Oy\nSent: Sunday, June 9, 2024 9:10 PM\nTo: NATALIE PITTENGER\nSubject: Re: Locations possibly wrong on website\nThx for this\nWilt let them know.\nSent from my iPhone\nFelicia :)\nOn Jun 9, 2024, at 7:48 PM, NATALIE PITTENCER JID — wrote:\nFelicia,\nWas cruising through the June schedule for TC meetings and it looks like they have the\nJune 13th (this week) Special Wastewater Meeting Update as being in Hearing\nRoom.

Here are a few of the notations in that report that, | think, bear really close scrutiny.\nFor starters, their “stakeholders” did NOT include tax paying residents of Cape Cod. To me,\nthat is a red flag right there. Why would they go out of their way to avoid residents of Cape\nCod??\nOn Page 5, \"The region's rural and suburban development patterns have resulted in\nlittle housing diversity, limited infrastructure, and a car-dependent society\nthat has created and exacerbated Cape Cod’s most critical challenges. The\ncurrent abundance of single-family homes and the policies in place that\nencourage them do not meet the region’s needs”\nMy comments: A car-dependent society has created and exacerbated Cape's most critical\nchallenges. ??? How is this supported ?? What documentation was used to create this\nbizarre statement ?? Further down on page 5 they state that the pandemic exacerbated several\nkey challenges impacting the ability of people to access housing. Which is it?? Cars or the\npandemic ?? Who says the policies in place that encourage them do not meet the region's\nneeds.......What ARE the region’s needs ??

They are a constructive means to make progress, for the\nCouncil's further consideration, on important issues and in a way that brings public awareness and visibility to them,\nwith comparable awareness and access for all.\nThe current proposal seeks to do public business in the way the Town Code intends: defined committee scopes,\ncommunicated to the Council and the public to enable participation by all at the same time and in the same way, with a\n“complete by\" date for the work, followed by Council deliberation of any recommendations.\nThe last several ad hoc subcommittees departed from this required process in nearly all ways. It gave business\ninterests earlier and more significant input opportunities than residents. This is not a point of view: it is evidenced by\nfacts recorded in minutes and on video.\nGiven some misstatements of facts about them by Councilor Levesque at the last meeting (perhaps attributable to the\npassage of time as this went 0 for years), | set forward facts from Town records and videos below. The reason for\nsharing this committee history is to illustrate the contrast in the way the Town Council had done business and the way\nit is now proposing to do business. The way it had done business caused hundreds of residents to petition for a\nResident Zoning Advisory Committee to level the uneven playing field between business interests and residents\nthat became institutionalized. In my view, the\nIn my view, it is ultimately the job of publicly-funded professional staff, and ultimately the Town Manager, to see to it\nthat public business is done in a way that complies with the Code. The Council is, as you know well, effectively a\nvolunteer position; each of you should not have to continuously review the Code, and websites, and notices and\neverything else to confirm business is done properly. That didn't happen. Citizen inquiries about this were ignored.\nThe best substantive outcomes result from diverse points of view, which requires comparable access and opportunity\nfor ail. The Town Code sets out processes to achieve that end, and to my read, the proposed committees are\nstructured in conformance.\nFurther, it would be great to hear you all discuss possible zoning and housing approaches that may emerge from such\ncommittee(s) work - a move F..,9nd reacting to proposals for waivers and the like, and beyond the .76 of a minute\neach Councilor was given on housing at the last Strategic Planning event (90 minutes for 13 Councilors to talk about 9\nmajor issues...), with follow-up in emails that no one saw.\nThank you for taking the time to read this.\nThe Economic Development Task Force\n« No scope, as required, to the Council by its creator, former President Steinhilber.\n« Instead, the former Councilor Steinhilber announced the scope to the Task Force at its first meeting.\n« No Council vote to create it.\nhttps://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/7ik=28425 .d@b6d&view=pt&search=ai.thid=thread-f:17941389947 1791786 1&simpl=msg-f:1794138994717917861 Page 1 of 3\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 382","text_sha256":"5126369104bd8876bcd533216dabcf8be772271d265af60fda1c53b92d0be3e2","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0382-01.webp","sha256":"98f87e72b98392202dd7c73c7fa2d7371581a4d93703d0607572dc8a1ded7d2b","width":1017,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,610.0,792.0],"bytes":159710}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0383","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":383,"printed_page":383,"width_points":609.0,"height_points":793.0,"text":"Gmail - Item 2024-166 5/15/25, 3:37 PM\nNo sunset date as required.\nNo web presence at all, unlike all other public bodies.\n». The.Town.could not pfoduce appointment records when asked years later; minutes the public asked for\nyears later show members seif-selecting.\nSome folks who spoke at the last Council meeting were on this Committee. (I'll inject an opinion here to this\nlist of facts: It was unsurprising to observers that those with an early seat at the table out of public view are\nreacting with apparent anxiety at proposals to do public business according to Code.)\nThe Committee went on to ignore the improperly announced scope. Instead, they took up housing, zoning,\nparking and even Hyannis water. Senior town staff were there and aware. Attached is a summary from\nminutes prepared by a citizen that show the disconnect between the improperly announced scope and what\nthe Committee worked on. Please refer to the full minutes as-well: this summary is intended as a.snapshot.\nThe members formed Housing, Inclusionary Housing, and Parking Subcommittees. No records, no visibility,\nnothing. Members appointed themselves to that. By all appearances there were conflicts of interest, in my\nview.\nMinutes the public requested years after it startec*working show Elizabeth Jenkins and Mark Ells showing up\nregularly (this was not as Councilor Levesque said members being so \"impassioned\" they met privately,\nalthough there was rumor that some subcommittees happened on members’ personal zooms. There are no\nrecords to substantiate that.) The Task Force minutes are on town tetterhead. Town staff supported its work\nat every meeting.\nMinutes show the Planning Department asking this Committee to \"champion\" its form-based zoning code. It\nworked on that for ~18 months before Elizabeth Jenkins announced to the Council that the public process on\nthat proposal would begin. The public process was called \"terrific\". By Way of public process, only 1% of\nHyannis residents responded to a Town survey on form based zoning. At forums, ~10 and ~30 people\nshowed up, including town staff and officials. Public questions and concerns about the parking component\nproposal were answered with \"hopes\" about shared parking. This is on video and in writing.\nMinutes show the members of the public that knew to show up included a representative from the Hyannis\nBusiness Improvement District and the Chamber, and someone named Carey.\nThe Zoning and Regulatory Subcommittee\nFormed in 2017.\nA former Town Council leader made himself that Subcommittee's leader, in violation of TC rules prohibiting\nthat\nNo sunset as required by the Code.\nOver the years, it moved from zoning issue to zoning issue despite the Town Code's provision for a defined\nscope and a time certain. Illustrative of the lack of defined scope was, at its last meeting in 2021, a\nsOlicitation of ideas about what zoning matters to take up next.\nWhen asked, Councilor Steinhilber called it an extra \"rung in the ladder\" of public process. In fact, outside of\nSTRs, only a dozen people showed up between 2017 - 2021. No surprise. This was not a place the Council\ntold the public would become the place zoning happened.\nSee an exchange | had with Steinhilber here at minute 52 where he talked around the lack of conformance\nto required processes. He was wrong.\nAn illustration of how this process worked in practice. When it worked on ADUs, the Subcommittee met for 5-\n6 months with nothing at all on its web page. Citizens looked weekly for activity; the Subcommittee\npresented to the public as dormant. The Subcommittee chair welcomed a representative of the builders,\nrealtors, chamber and HAC to present a proposed ordinance and interact with the committee over the\ncourse of a meeting (no 3 minute limit like that given to residents). Indeed, when residents and Civic\nAssociations presented a model ordinance on a prior matter in public, the same leaders ridiculed them for\ndoing so on the public record. The lack of public presence during this time period caused former\nCouncilor Culllum and Councilor Schnepp to chuckle over the lack of public comment, and Councilor\nLevesque to thank the one member of the public for showing up. (Someone sent me that audio clip from\nChannel 18 which | can send along). That was a public official/developer who had expressed interest in\nmuiti-family by right on the public record. Town staff replied to that by asking if the ADU proposal as\npresented (which departed from ADU rules adopted by nearly all Cape towns...) got him close enough. He\nsaid it depended on whether it stayed in the form as the builder/realtors/chamber/hac proposed. Somehow,\nhe knew to show up. That was not the only time this committee did business with a website that made it look\nhttps://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ik=28425d8b6d&view=pt&search=al., .hid=thread-f:1784138994717917861&simpi=msg-t:17 94138994717917861 Page 2 of 3\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 383","text_sha256":"3e9d25126ce45d98114ef686d4fd6e48feb2287905a244d1bd2c67b1424e166f","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0383-01.webp","sha256":"712693d94c1bbcbe527d881755085c40478e58e7fb9805f2f9b48e16713d318d","width":1015,"height":1322,"crop_points":[0,0,609.0,793.0],"bytes":210572}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0384","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":384,"printed_page":384,"width_points":610.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"Gmail - Item 2024-166 5/15/25, 3:37 PM\ndormant.\nThank you for endeavoring to do business consistent with the Town Code provisions that are designed to be fair and\nequitable to all.\nHeather Hunt\nECO DEV TASK FORCE Minutes notes-2.pdf\ni\n34K\nhttps://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ik=28425deb6d&view=pt&search=al...hid=thread-f:179 413899471791786 1&simpl=msg-f:1794138994717917861 Page 3 of 3\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 384","text_sha256":"d3aa8f97244759f0120f11b89b43f64b685e67948f4c1c1e8ea9b98094a60ffe","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0384-01.webp","sha256":"00ba7470fc549752aa297bd79d40e6e9c6fca98aa7adbe555acb63a7dc1b5718","width":1017,"height":1317,"crop_points":[0,0,610.0,790.0],"bytes":19128}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0385","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":385,"printed_page":385,"width_points":609.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"Xfinity Connect home occupation code Printout 5/18/25, 5:43PM\nEric Schwaab Qa > 3/26/2024 10:55 AM\nhome occupation code\njohn crow Geol ees)\nJohn,\nThis is the Home Occupation cade you asked about:\nhttps://ecode360.com/65595 #6559568\n11.

No need for a\nreply. | am writing to flag some issues following Monday's Planning Board meeting about the HPP.\n1. Public Presentation and Comment on Major Plans. The Planning Department put out a revised draft Housing\nProduction Plan this spring. It had not been talked about for over a year, and the new draft has not been presented\nsubstantively anywhere to my knowledge. Why is the substance of major plans presented to encourage public awareness\nand engagement?\nThe HPP was first on a Housing Committee agenda. No public showed up. it was then on two Planning Board agendas.\nNo public showed up at either meeting. No member of either committee said why is no one here? What was done to get\npublic input? Has it been presented to civic associations? Should we do something?\n| sent the Planning Department 2 pages of public comment before the Housing Committee. | said | could not be there, and\nplease record it as if | was. When | later watched and saw no mention, | followed up. The staff reply was we didn’t know\nyou meant it for the Housing Committee. They said it would be sent to the Planning Board. The only mention of any public\ncomment at the Planning Board was my subsequent verbal request for maps to accompany land use changes, which the\nPlanning Board Chair said that was up to the LCP.\nIn the April 25th Town Manager Report, Mark Ells said public comment on the HPP would be gathered and posted. That\ndid not happen. Was there really no verbal or written comment? If | was literally the only person to send in comments, is\nthat not a flag that there is a problem with public awareness efforts? Or is no public engagement a goal because that is\nwhat it looks like to observers.\nCould you consider encouraging Town staff to give substantive presentations to the public on key draft plans\nthat affect nearly all residents? Take advantage of the fact that we have civic associations where residents meet,\nhave other community groups and gatherings, and so on? These documents sit on the town website page 3\nlayers deep, easily available to those who know to look, and how to look. That's almost no one.\nSimilarly, the LCP draft chapters on land use and housing were put out for comment with no public presentation\nof their substance. The turnout out was less than 1/2 of 1%, and those few people a) didn't hear substance and b)\nwere proactively discouraged from discussing their views but rather expressing themselves via dots on a board.\n2. Maps with Proposed Land Use Changes. On Monday, | asked the Planning Department for maps that\ncorrespond with the land use changes in the HPP. Staff said they would check in with the LCP leadership about maps.\nThe Planning Board Chair's verbal response to the map request was to say the HPP sets out strategies and the LCP\nwould determine the locations of zoning changes. Well, the LCP already put out land use and housing chapters for\nfeedback without maps (and without any substantive presentation at village meetings) and since April has ignored\nrequests for maps cornesponding to proposed land use changes\nIt is unreasonable and pointless to ask for public comment on land use changes without maps. Withholding maps is not\nnew. The first time | tracked a zoning issue here it as a former Councilor leading a land use change proposal at an ad hoc\ncommittee for ~6 months. He withheld maps until the very last meeting. The maps showed he owned land where the land\nuse changes - what's called the strategy, now- were being proposed. This separating of land use change proposals and\nmapsilocations is a learned tactic to minimize reactions, in my view....\nI redlined the prior HPP draft and the revised version issued for comment. The Planning Dept scrubbed out reference to\nchanging zoning 1/2 mile around certain villages - which language Ells was asked about last year and met with a really\nvigorous denial of any such proposal. That's on video. in this version issued for comment, the village names are gone as\nis the reference to 1/2 mile circumference around them where the prior draft said change zoning here.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 415","text_sha256":"f0d1f0a7e9c7bf4a0ef319191f86f101362d6c3c8805f688d988d6b042e3f838","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0415-01.webp","sha256":"6c4d120f141928e8a057eee42b106dde7d8f184c3514a9fca7899eb915212bbf","width":1019,"height":1324,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,794.0],"bytes":176328}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0416","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":416,"printed_page":416,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":795.0,"text":"Earlier records, back in 2022, show the Planning Department telling the consultant it \"had a lot of concern with the\nwording of the Goals and Strategies being public facing in the current format.\" The land use change was not a concern -\nbeing direct with the public was.\nSo today, we have a scrubbed document to mitigate public reaction and no maps.\nSee images below that show the editing out of the specific zoning change proposals that Mark Ells publicly and repeatedly\ndenied existed when asked about the prior draft.\nCould you consider asking that draft land use change proposals be accompanied by maps - as a matter of\ncourse and before public comment?\n3.

May 24 Draft .docx\nPlease find attached a version of the recently released Housing Production Plan Draft redlined against the January 2023\nversion, which was to be finalized in March 2023 per the schedule on the Planning Dept's website.\nUhad the January 2023 version because the Planning Dept scrolled through it at the Jan 2023 Housing Committee\nmeeting and so ! asked for it. | don't have time to read another 130+ pages so | did a doc compare that just shows the\nchanges. It's a useful look.\nSome notable changes, among others you may see:\n1. Redeveloping/rezoning Villages. p. 55 The 2023 version proposed to move formed based code from Hyannis to the\nCCC Community Activity Centers Osterville and Barnstable Village, and Jenkins added Centerville with no explanation.\nThe CCC called for multi-family by right 1/4 mile around village centers. Jenkins grew that in the 2023 version to 1/2 mile.\nFrom the Channel 18 video of the 2023 presentations, ! took images and out them into a presentation to the OVA and this\nzoning Change proposal is in the works, it's a big deal. etc. This was consistent with Planning's 2020 announcement to\nHousing that they planned to move form based code to other villages, which statement in minutes they've denied over\nand over. Ells came to a later OVA meetng and was asked about this image showing his staff saying move this to those 3\nvillages. He said over and Over there is no proposal to change zoning in the other villages. | said Mark we are literally\nlooking at your staffs work, not an interpretation of it. It is in writing on the screen you are looking at (and it was well down\nthe road - on the way to Planning and then TC for March adoption.) He stuck to his script that there is no proposal. He\nlater called it misinformation. This is all on You Tube.\nThe 2024 version has deleted the reference to zoning that was implemented in the Hyannis and also deleted the specific\nvillages to where it would be moved. It deletes the reference to 1/2 mile around the 3 villages and changes to \"around\nvillages\" or something like that. It's now a vague pasSage that goes to the same place but in such an unclear way that no\none knows what it means and thus, people will not react as they would ff this was plainly stated as it was in 2023. This\nsame vague strategy is in the draft LCP as well.\n2. Affordable Housing%. The# slipped down from April 2023 to now from 7.23 to 6.78. Of course it did. It will Keep\ndoing that with the build build model.\n3. Accessory Affordable Apartment Program. When the ADU ordinance was under consideration, Jenkins reported at a\nmeeting that the Accessory Affordable Apartment Program (a deed restriction) would stay on the books but was expected\nto diminish by attrition. That program is an accessory dwelling unit permit program for unit rental to tenants below a\ncertain income level. My sister watched the ZBA agendas and did see that unit after unit were dropping out, as predicted\nafter the ADU ordinance passed. In the ADU matter, the Council did not even talk about Felicia's suggestion to include an\naffordability component in the rule. Mort and others strongly Opposed Felicia's suggestion for that in public comment. Now,\nthe Planning Dept is saying let's financially incent this program that they knew would suffer from attrition and did not want\nto track. On tracking the affordability apartments they now want to incent, the former Housing staff literally said no one\nhas been tracking these units anyway. We can find that. It was flippant.\n4, Planning Assumptions based on people who buy homes with a guest bedroom or office. The plan leaps to label\na \"mismatch\" between how many people live in a home and how many bedrooms a home has means there is a need for\nmore studios and one bedrooms. Pretending to mind read homeowners and make assumptions about peOple’s choices is\nnot the way to justify converting single families to multi-families or to let developers cram units into Main St. Hyannis.\nexrschler PRR #2025-0263 417","text_sha256":"3c4bea83a4ae838dac2890b25d7eb7c6a97b51001ed4d46e76fd06af40905db8","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0417-01.webp","sha256":"3517658bdaaa0bccfad94fef8c11d091c04f17373089a18cc05f614bb5e7b3bf","width":1034,"height":1339,"crop_points":[0,0,620.0,803.0],"bytes":164228}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0418","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":418,"printed_page":418,"width_points":625.0,"height_points":805.0,"text":"Hope this is helpful.\nHeather Hunt\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 418","text_sha256":"a0c7495d8d219b8e1b535bdf6972044a5b3e0f049c6f1058c8ae8334e53bb7b6","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":["short transcription"],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0418-01.webp","sha256":"a3cf85c9f705b5e65889c8c6f16b5addf195e9fc2e2b0fc5ff1752966541a634","width":1042,"height":1342,"crop_points":[0,0,625.0,805.0],"bytes":7824}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0419","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":419,"printed_page":419,"width_points":619.0,"height_points":799.0,"text":"Mi Gmail Kristin Terkelscr Si\nPlanning Department Records Destruction\n1 message\nESTE —————————=S—t—t—S STR Sata\nheather hunt oe a Mon, Nov 27, 2023 at 9:40 AM\nTo By Bo Se Dr. Kristin Terkelse! i > CRAIG TAMASH\nCharte ocr: TS > John Crow - Cit iii\nNewly election Councilors -\nCongratulations on your elections.\n| am writing to ask for your attention to a matter that arose shortly befofe you! election to the Council but reflects long-\nstanding practices that disrega'd ethics and the proper conduct of public business. | don't ask for a reply to this email due\nfo open meeting rules. | am sending it to you to make you awa’e and to ask for you to Consider addressing the issues.\nIn short, | asked to see public records in the form of communications between the Planning Director and a property owner\n(who has since sought public funds from the town) on Main St. in Hyannis during the period the Planning Director was\nadvancing zoning changes in that dist'ict to allow greater density and building height by right. My requests fo! the\nrecords and Town's replies over many months are in the document labeled COMPILED. The ultimate answer from the\nMassachusetts Secretary of State on appeal is also attached. That is the attachment labeled Jenkins destroyed.\nThe bottom line, which took many email 'equests fo! clarity to ascertain, is that a Department Director destroyed some\npublic \"ecords between herself and the property owne! that she said were personal in nature, and then allowed a\nmember of the public to access town-funded communications equipment and destroy mo’e communications - the public\ntecolds | sought, which were those about planning, zoning and development. | asked the Town if there was a plan to\ncorrect this alarming info!mation about the ability of a member of the public to access public 'ecords and destroy them. No\nreply. | also asked if the Town had a plan to correct the asserted lack of any requi’ed back-up of electronic public records.\nNo reply.\nThe conduct of the Department Directo! violated my right to review public records related to planning and zoning. It also\nspotlights that no public records request in Barnstable has integrity when the Town allows senior officials to destroy\nrecords and claims it does not have a system to preserve and back-up public Teco'ds.\nI send this to you as new Councilo’s and hope you will seek corrections. The state will not.\nPrior Councllors have time and again been unconcerned about this kind of conduct that disregards, in my view, ethics and\nrespect for the public in the conduct of public business. See some of those in a Patriot Op Ed attached that | wrote a few\nyears ago. This predates othe! actions, including moving the Form Based Zoning proposal to a seFapponted — Economic\nDevelopment Task Force run out of public view (no Town website presence that other public bodles have, which\npreciuded public awareness until the public heard about it 'andomly and asked for agendas and minutes years later.) It\nalso omits details about the Planning Director's role in the Planning Boa'd's need to ‘Te do’ a o'dinance development\nprocess. That is, the then-Chair participated while conflicted. Restdents saw that and asked for a conflict review. He then\nrecused himself. After his recusal, the Planning Difecto\", acco!ding to the then Vice Chair, allowed the conflicted and\nrecused Chai\" to wite the Planning Board Report to the Town Council. When residents noticed this in the Report\nlanguage and asked about it, the Town Attorney decla'ed this ethics violation was a “procedural irregularity\" that required\nthe process to be redone without his participation. This series of events is all in minutes, on video and in memos, which |\nhave. It seems the former Planning Boa'd's misconduct was excused because he was a volunteer (he was 'eappointed to\nthe Planning Boa'd and also made Chai! of the Local Comprehensive Plan Committee). The Planning Director however is\na paid professional who is trained and cha'ged with conducting public business properly. Thee is a long record of that not\nhappening. The recent record destruction is only the most recent example.\nThank you for considering addressing the issue | raise.\nHeather Hunt\nResident, Barnstable\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 419","text_sha256":"aafdf38712e2e2ccd08b1f67ae02906eece33345fb80cff92afa867e546dfcfb","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0419-01.webp","sha256":"89a6a0edbe9d93244201e4417bea0f5072e339a894bfdb72c93d7060c9ea7d06","width":1032,"height":1332,"crop_points":[0,0,619.0,799.0],"bytes":160220}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0420","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":420,"printed_page":420,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"3 attachments\nprt spr232612 SOL Jenkins destroyed .pdf\n215K\nor SPR23-2612 COMPILED.pdf\n2424K\ns] BarnstablePatriot_20210108.pdf\n244K *\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 420","text_sha256":"4b9a29f50faf5d06d5a95aa33ccf0ba71e32b09603c6183c9ed81f439c320ebe","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0420-01.webp","sha256":"0750a87c2bc09816c08ead6fb6bea4bba50f678e248d648631f53e7ac4b23f63","width":1019,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,791.0],"bytes":11430}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0421","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":421,"printed_page":421,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"na | Gmail Kristin Terkelsen ‘55>\nyimbyvideo\n1 message\nEric Schwaab < Qi Fri, Nav 15, 2024 at 9:18 PM\nTo. \"Dr. Kristin Terkelse: Qa\nForwarded messaae ---------\nFrom: Eric Schwaab <\nDate: Fri, Nov 15, 2024, 19:52\nSubject: video\nTo: Eric Schwaab < TD -\nClip one\nIMG_0215.3gp\nD 65k\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 421","text_sha256":"d85f05b7d3cc63259d9d07a5a925dda4e7733fdab0750603b2b22c859b5022d5","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0421-01.webp","sha256":"c44373775ee7933c0a8b27da68de06612120d1649264b75bad4cdf253f95c99b","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":20028}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0422","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":422,"printed_page":422,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"Gmail - You guys seen this draft affordable housing study?\nM Gmail ain Tots\nYou guys seen this draft affordable housing study?\nKristin Te - ‘Sun, Feb 2 2025 & 9:0 FM\nDr. krisun Tarkolson, PT.

Of course, the cost is never mentioned, so here is a\nrough estimate to get the ball rolling.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 428","text_sha256":"07616c6a4a0e0dfdfeadc3934ac4a77fc1febe05c7d517de31c5df890be6c870","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0428-01.webp","sha256":"a72a0d521b7ea5163563d5b5ff38b623d9f65e42e2a2585476b91b6211f349ad","width":1017,"height":1315,"crop_points":[0,0,610.0,789.0],"bytes":50616}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0429","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":429,"printed_page":429,"width_points":609.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"California's Offshore Floating Wind Fantasy?\nThe estimate begins with the huge Dominion Energy (DOM) fixed wind\nproject currently under construction off of Virginia. Because the regulated\nutility DOM is its own developer, we get some public numbers, so here is a\ncrude derivation. Big numbers are rounded for simplicity and ease of memory.\n1, DOM says the 2,600 MW facility will cost $10 billion to build, which is\nabout $ billion/GW. But financing and profit bump that to $20 billion or\n$8 billion/GW, which is called the “revenue requirement” or what rate\npayers will pay. We will use that number.\n2. DOM brags that they are immune to the big cost spike that has swept\nthe industry because their contracts predate it. The costs have\nincreased an estimated 65% industry-wide. That pushes the fixed\nbottom cost to $6.6 billion/GW construction and $13.2 billion/GW total.\n3. Floating wind is generally estimated to be three times fixed wind\nbecause that huge floater costs a huge amount more than the single\nmonopile a fixed tower sits on, plus there is a lot of mooring to the sea\nfloor. Off California, the water is around a half mile deep. This gives a\nconstruction cost of roughly $20 billion/GW and a total of $40 billion/GW.\nIt could be a lot more as it has never been done.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 429","text_sha256":"9a2f1779501eb275ef34704ac7e1fb2463aa91a1561ceea3905d5c867fd00d60","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0429-01.webp","sha256":"9d58663005db176bc5f7a95f3839de8e116d7064e23b825f02840c7717b06b5c","width":1015,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,609.0,791.0],"bytes":122970}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0430","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":430,"printed_page":430,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"4.

That makes it well over a trillion.\nThis is California's trillion-dollar floating wind fantasy!\nNow, let's turn this into a possible power purchase agreement (PPA) price. A\ntrillion dollars paid over 20 years is $50,000,000,000 a year. Assuming a 40%\ncapacity factor, that works out to 57 cents a KWh.

Floating wind is a crazy policy, even by California’s crazy\nstandards.\nWhich brings us to something happening right now. The U.S. Energy\nDepartment's Grid Deployment Office is asking for information and comments\non developing an offshore wind transmission plan for the West Coast.\nHere is the basic announcement: “The West Coast Offshore Wind\nTransmission effort includes a Request for Information to allow individuals\nand organizations to submit written input about transmission topics, including\nsiting, technology, and policy considerations. The GDO team will consider this\ninput as they prepare West Coast recommendations.

It's titled “Why Wind Power Is Useless” and a condensed version\nfollows:\nRenewable electricity, mostly wind power, is useless in ely dimension. it\nis extremely expensive but is made to look cheap by hiding an 80%\nsubsidy. It is an exorbitantly expensive method for reducing CO2\nemissions...\nThe government subsidizes wind power. Some of the subsidies are\nupfront. Others are hidden in tax rules or created by using law to change\nthe bargaining balance between wind power providers and electric\nutilities. The biggest federal hidden subsidy is “tax equity financing,” a\nmasterpiece of accounting obscurantism. The biggest state level subsidy\nis renewable portfolio laws. These laws require the use of renewable\nenergy to generate electricity and require ever increasing proportions of\nrenewable energy in the electric grid...\nRenewable portfolio laws that force utilities to purchase renewable power\nin ever-increasing amounts makes the market for renewable power a\nsellers’ market by increasing demand. Only a limited number of big\ncompanies with experience and financial resources can build massive,\nutility-scale wind or solar farms. Given the competitive calculus, these\ncompanies are only willing to build plants with long-term contracts that\nreduce risk.\nTypically, there are 20- or 25-year contracts called power purchase\nagreements or PPA’s. A wind fafm with a guaranteed contract to purchase\nall the power generated for 25 years becomes something more like a\ntreasury bond than a business. Frequently the utility is even obligated to\n| pay for ghost power that was not generated because the grid could not\naccept the amount of power available in certain circumstances.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 433","text_sha256":"e826abb8e2570350bfa5634494ed5b1bfad3e978d72d399998beebaee8cb08fc","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0433-01.webp","sha256":"57b4c941695e7f8f76567f9986f645d2a35b047e78f6bcc8482794a77c95c526","width":1017,"height":1325,"crop_points":[0,0,610.0,795.0],"bytes":91672}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0434","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":434,"printed_page":434,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Having guaranteed long-term contracts signed before a shovel of dirt is\nturned changes everything.

That is the exit strategy for wind farm owners.\nThe risks are borne by the utilities and ultimately by the government, the\n| ultimate backer of electric utilities...\nDue to the complicated and deceptive nature of government subsidies it is\ndifficult to directly compute the size of the subsidy.

If the price the wind power company\nneeds for the wind power is greater than what a utility would be willing to\npay, then the difference must be made up with a subsidy, either from the\ngovernment or from electricity users.\nWind power is intermittent power. It waxes and wanes with the wind. For\nthat reason, a utility cannot count on wind power. The utility must have\npower plants it can count on to keep the lights on. It only makes sense to\npurchase wind power when the cost of the wind power is less than the\ncost of alternative power sources available to the utility.

Of the $154 million $20 million is for operating expense and the rest\nis net revenue. Assuming the wind farm has a life of 20 years this\ncorresponds to 12% interest on the billion-dollar investment. That is a\nreasonable return for entering a highly risky business.

The difference must be made up by a subsidy from taxes\nor higher electric rates. The subsidy required is about 83% of the cost of\nwind power, or $95 per megawatt hour. We offer this as a fair estimate of\nthe wind power subsidy.\nNotice that we are comparing the full cost of wind power with the marginal\ncost of natural gas power.

Once permitted some of these\nhome businesses have been appropriate, and they have\ncause little to no change to the quality of life, of\nneighborhood property owners. Now with the expansion\nand escalation of these businesses some have become a\nproblem, a nuisance and a threat to quality of life, of lifelong\nresidential owners around them. Some may not know, the\nowner of the business or even that a businesses has been\nestablished right next to them. Many homeowners have\ncomplained of having to contend with noisy equipment early\nin the morning, strangers lingering about the businesses\n(before and after work), most waiting to be assigned a job\nfor the day as well as, unsightly, dangerous and overflowing\namounts of materials and equipment at these new\nbusinesses, devalving their home and investment\nproperties. Yards full of lawn mowers, refrigerators or cars\nbeing repaired, rented or sold from these premises, in my\nopinion need to be better monitored, in order to protect, our\none source aquifer from accidental oil spills or leaks (from\ncertain types of equipment or products sitting on the ground\non these lots).\nThere has not been as much effort (policies or regulations)\nestablished, to protect long standing residential\nneighborhoods, as there has been to protect, and regulate\nnew home businesses. Some of these residents, | speak\nabout, have paid taxes in this town for centuries now\ndeserve to be heard, respected, and to be given, honest\nand real relief, and help to address some of the affects on\nour environment, from todays' encroaching, contemporary\nlifestyle choices.

During that time, It came to my attention that we\nmay have some addressing issues at 780 Craigville Beach Road, Centerville\n(formerly known as Tradewinds). Upon my arrival at this location, the fire alarm!\ncontrol panel displayed 4€0eWaterflaw Unit (A7)4€ and a quick investigation of\n‘that unit reveated no findings. However, a gentleman at (A2) then approached\nme and stated the issue was actually in his unit. He then informed me that his\ncurrent unit (A2) was formerly (A7} and that the unit numbers dona€é™t match\nup with the town or with the fire alarm control panel. This became a cause for\nconcern for obvious reasons, especially because during an emergency we want\nthe correct response, responding, to the correct address. The gentleman then\ncalled back this morning, again voicing his precariousness with the entire\nsituation. My hope here is that together we can come up with a resolution to this|\nproblem.

By rule, there is a two week lag between these votes that an\nembittered outgoing council president used to rally opposition to the newly\nelected president\nOther more subtle rules impact how we staff our committees and boards.\nFor example, the Barnstable Charter prescribes how in § 241-44 the\nmembership of the Community Preservation Committee.\nSee: https://ecode360.com/6560509#6560509\n“Establishment and term of office.

Then | decided you are new to your roles and |\nreally wanted to send a couple of solution oriented suggestions.\nFirst, why am | writing now? At the last LCP meeting, Wendy Northcross\nrecused herself from the housing section of the LCP. This was years late.\nYears ago, she chose not to disclose her financial interests that lead to her\nrecusal from housing. This was years after ethics training due to her\nservice on the affordable housing trust fund. This was after years of her\nconversations about housing and STRs in public and in private with other\nLCP members and staff. This was after issuing a recommendation that the\ntown extend a tax exemption to real estate investors like herself.\n| write because this is the sixth - 6th! - public official who has stepped\naside, or off a board or committee altogether, but only after | raised the\nfinancial interest in STRs.\nHow many conflicts on other issues go unnoticed?\nHere are a few suggestions. Further below, | share more of my own\nexperiences that emphasize the need for changes.\nThe Application Form\nThe volunteer application form should:\n1) require disclosure of all financial interests that have any connection to\nthe committee or board's jurisdiction\n2) require the applicant to agree to provide such disclosure on a rolling\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 598","text_sha256":"f5046aadfb325c2691171eee8ebd7d9d20080e2b9d6b02bb676b4350e4a113bb","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0598-01.webp","sha256":"76b920b63bd99b757037dbe8c7c7a3d6f34172a24de74078a9573ba1a9a6c446","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":85048}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0599","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":599,"printed_page":599,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":793.0,"text":"basis during the term of service (this is necessary given how some people\nserve for years on end - Wendy on the Trust Fund Board is an example of\nthat.)\n3) require a signature acknowledging that full disclosure was made and\ncommitment to disclose on a rolling basis\n4) arequirement, or at the very least, acknowledgment, that people will be\nexpected to step off a board or committee if relevant information comes to\nlight that was not disclosed.\nNumber 4 or some version of it is to avoid staff doing one of three things\nthat it does:\n1) downplaying the problem when it arises (i.e., Costello's continuing\nparticipation after his recusal that others forced was called a \"procedural\nirregularity\" by legal. This did a good job of messaging to other public\nOfficials that the town attorney office will be part of sweeping embarrassing\nconflicts out of public view.)\n2) asserting people who don't disclose and act in their own interests have\nrights to due process that outweighs the public's right to non-conflicted\nboards\n3) nothing, other than say go file a state ethics complaint. This signals that\nthe town has no standards despite its own ethics code. And, the world\nknows state ethics complaints will take longer than the matter the\nconflicted person is working on.\nA process to enable the Appointments Committee to receive vetted\napplicants so that the Committee interviews eligible candidates on\nsubstance.\nDecades ago, | worked in a Governor's legal office. In the office next door\nwas the Appointments person. She didn't bring any appointments\nexperience to the job. She and the General Counsel just set up a routine\nvetting process to make sure things were done right. She shuttled\ncontinually between her office where she collected and reviewed\napplications and disclosures and the General Counsel's office who was a\nsecond set of eyes. It was a process and a partnership to be sure\nCommissioners, judges, and many 100s of appointees to state boards and\ncommittees were not conflicted. Making sure financial interests are known\nis not hard. It just requires intention and a process amongst professional\nstaff.\n! do not believe this job should be left to Councilors on the Appointments\nCommittee as it has been. History shows it does not work. Councilors are\neffectively citizen volunteers from a range of backgrounds, and do not\ngenerally have the background, time during interviews, or resources to\nperform this function through a consistent process. The burden should not\nbe put on a Committee to quiz applicants in public about disclosures and\nfinancial interests during interviews. It's also not fair to do that to\napplicants during a public interview.

Before that first ZBA\nhearing, my lawyer from Boston told me to set expectations because\nBarnstable boards are widely known to be packed with business interests.\nLater, one of them (current ZBA chair) pushed a proposal related to\nhousing tax exemptions as a member of the Housing Committee. Based\non what | knew of his business, | believed it would benefit his business.\nThat proposal soon came out as a staff proposal. | wrote to staff to ask\nwhether it was the same proposal that the Housing Committee member\npushed. | said please know people are watching all this. He then stepped\noff that committee.\nHe slid into the former Eco Dev Task Force to make pitches. He then\nasked to join, did, and pushed the same things there.\nThis also happened at the Planning Board. The Chair had a conflict and\nfailed to recuse until people called it out. He then called me vicious, etc in\nthe newspaper for asking for a non-conflicted board.

And it proposed to do away with\nsingle family zoning 1/2 mile around those\nvillage centers The name was changed from Form\nBased Code, which people by then had a sense of, to\n\"Design Driven\" development. A benign name. No one\nknows what it means. ! looked it up - it is form based\ncode. (Why rebrand?) We asked Mr. Ells to come to an\nOVA meeting and one of the things we asked about\nwas this zoning change proposal. It was in my hands in\nblack and white. And on video. And up on a screen. He\nreplied over and over that there was no plan to change\nzoning. | said read these words. Again, no plan to\nchange zoning. He either did not know what planning\nwas doing or was denying it publicly. There is no third\noption for his response. Later, | did a short record\nrequest to find the origin of the pay people not to short-\nterm rent because it was described as being from\npublic forums and surveys and ! knew it was not. In\nthat batch of records were documents that show the\nPlanning Dept telling the HPP consultant that the town\nwas concerned about the fanguage of zoning proposals\nin the \"public facing documents\" particularly in villages\nthat are \"sensitive about zoning” or something close to\nthat. So they edited the documents to be less clear. |\ndid a document redline compare of the Jan 2023 draft\nto the Spring 2024 draft and you see they redlined out\nthe names of the Villages and the reference to the 1/2\nmiles around them.

Closely\nrelated to that, | want to discuss the importance of properly noting when\nofficials and employees recuse themselves from meetings. It's common in\nBarnstable for individuals to exit meetings without announcing\ntheir recusal, leading to confusion for those present or watching later. I've\nexperienced this firsthand when members of the ZBA left without\nexplanation when | sought to have my rights adjudicated. It happened\nanother time when | sought appointment to a committee.

Tihis happens with experienced staff too: throughout the\nlast year, an employee repeatedly just dropped away from meetings of a\nboard that gives out public money for housing.\nThis passive approach to recusals seems to be accepted here. | believe\nthat by codifying a simple directive that requires individuals to state\ntheir recusal before leaving, we can improve clarity and accountability in\nour meetings.\nIn case you are advised that such a measure is unnecessary since\nOfficials and employees are already expected to announce their recusals, |\nask you to consider the reality that many do not follow through in practice.\nBy emphasizing this protocol in the Town Code, the Committee has the\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 634","text_sha256":"6a0c80b2bcfb45c9edc01f6ace02af93498574831e40e0d5f4342917a403328a","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0634-01.webp","sha256":"973cfdea383778ad5494cf3068efb2ae4983032282b9d6a2373894cc617e6167","width":1035,"height":1335,"crop_points":[0,0,621.0,801.0],"bytes":97246}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0635","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":635,"printed_page":635,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"opportunity to reset expectations and foster a more transparent\nenvironment.\nRelated to that, I'd like to urge you to note in the Town Code the need to\nsubmit Conflict of Interest Disclosure Forms before acting in one’s official\ncapacity. This is particularly relevant in Barnstable, where we've seen\nmany instances that highlight the need for this.\nll offer a range of examples - appointed, elected and staff - to illustrate\nthe need since you might be advised this is not necessary or that training\ncould solve the problem. The current LCP Chair, who has been in her role\nfor several years, has operated a commercial Airbnb in a property she\ndoes not reside in while serving on the LCP Committee that has\nrecommended granting financial incentives for short-term rental operators\nlike herself to long-term rent. It's been reported that she filed a disclosure\nafter she worked on the recommendations, and only after concerns were\npublicly mentioned. That's not a solution. Similarly, a senior staff member\ndisclosed a personal relationship after meeting with that individual about\nhow to access public funds from sources she staffed. A former Town\nCouncil President disclosed a professional relationship after making an\nofficial appearance before the Appointments Committee on behalf of his\ncolleague and casting many votes for him. These instances reveal a trend\nwhere officials delay disclosures until prompted by public scrutiny,\nsuggesting a cultural issue that tolerates after the fact disclosures.\nIn case you are advised that state rules are sufficient or alternatively hear\nthat training would suffice, please consider that in Barnstable there is a\ncommon practice among seasoned officials and staff to postpone\ndisclosures until issues arise from the observing public. This reactive\npractice undermines the purpose of such disclosures.\nTo change this culture, it would be beneficial to incorporate a requirement\nin the Town Code that compels officials and employees to file disclosures\nprior to acting in their official capacities, with consequences for\nnoncompliance.\nThank you for considering these views.\nHeather Hunt\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 635","text_sha256":"edb519c043ecb53ee06465a32fca131131b43fce1ae711185af49356364ec079","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0635-01.webp","sha256":"f6aa9130ded82310020194250a94fc3e417770b496e0bd4339fed8c453ff29d0","width":1020,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,791.0],"bytes":106462}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0636","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":636,"printed_page":636,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"From: Tamash, Craig\nSent: Thursday, May 29, 2025 4:54 PM\nTo: FOIA Mailbox\nSubject: O'Connor\nAttachments: Centerville Recycles (5).pdf\nCraig Tamash\nPresident\nBarnstable Town Council\nCouncilor Precinct 4\nBegin forwarded message:\nFrom: ‘info aS ' Cs >\nDate: January 30, 2025 at 17:35:44 EST\nSubject: Centerville Civic Association funraiser\nHello Councilors,\nWould you please share this with your constituents?

Maybe the writer\nmissed November 7\" ..... the day that these wonderful new councilors\nwere elected by the public. | think the public spoke loud and clear !! And\nmany of these new councilors faced contested races where their\nopposition was a legacy councilor!!... There is NO hypocrisy here. My\ntake is that the new councilors will always be open to resident opinions\nand questions.

She explained the\nfederal district judge agreed with the Town that nitrogen and effluent that is released from the\nTown's wastewater treatment facility and which travels for 21 years over a distance of 1% miles\nbefore it even reaches navigable waters cannot be considered the functional equitant of a direct\ndischarge in to those waters. Therefore the federal district judge found that the Federal Clean\nWater Act does not regulate such discharges. It is the state that has the authority and\nresponsibility to regulate ground water discharges. The federal district judge also noted that the\nTown's wastewater treatment facility is fully permitted by the state under the state's regulatory\nframework. CLF now has 30 days from the date on which the decision was entered, which is\ntoday to file an appeal.\nKaren Nober said the work on this matter has really been a team effort from all involved: Legal\nDepartment, Department of Public Works, and with outside lawyers at Anderson and Creager.\nCouncilor questions and comments:\nCouncil President Levesque thanked Nober and her entire team for the great work.\nCouncil Vice-President Schnepp and Councilor Hebert said they were extremely pleased with\nthe result. Council Vice-President Schnepp questioned the likelihood of an appeal. Karen\nNober, Town Attorney could not estimate the probability of an appeal, we think it is unlikely only\nbecause now it is a district court decision which is persuasive but not controlling. If they appeal\nto circuit court and lose there it is a much worse result for them. It is unlikely they will appeal but\ncertainly possible. Councilor Rapp Grassetti asked about recovering the fees? Karen Nober,\nTown Attorney explained the Town would not be able to recover legal fees though technically it\nis possible we would have to show their case was so implausible and specious and it is not. The\nstatute is really structured in a way to encourage plaintiffs and not to disincentify them.\nThe possible appeal would be difficult as the decision was a well written argument opinion.

The CCC has not posted public comment on its draft Regional Housing\nStrategy (despite requests to do so by many). The CCC has not discussed\npublic comment, the Draft or adopted it. Yet, it has expended funds,\npresumably public, working up and posting Model Bylaws based on a staff\ndraft that the CCC has not discussed or adopted. How is that a prudent\nuse of public money?\n2. Why does the CCC keep public comment off its website on some\nmatters and put it up immediately on others? What is the standard on\nposting? Why does it ignore inquiries about making public\ncomment available in all and not just some matters?\n3. Why does it issue exceptionally long drafts decisions on matters within\nthe Town of Barnstable and give the Barnstable public only a couple of\nbusiness days to read many hundreds of pages and to\nprepare comments?\n4. Why does the CCC take feedback on drafts from municipalities and\nhold that feedback as internal confidential?

Despite multiple candidates being nominated for town council\npresident and vice president, a motion was made by John Crow and seconded by\nFelicia Penn to suspend the rules, forego giving the public the option to comment on\nwho they think leadership should be or what should qualify them, and nominate\nofficers at that same meeting. This motion was supported by four new town\ncouncilors: Penn (one of the candidates for president), Crow, Kristin Turkelson and\nCraig Tamash.\nThis hypocrisy right out the gate, at their first meeting, speaks volumes about what\nthey really think ab out transparency, and about respecting the public enough to allow\nus to have our voices and opinions heard at the town government level.\nUntil and unless these four councilors can show the public the respect they demanded\nof the prior town council, there are better options, councilors with more experience,\nfor the role of president and vice president of the Barnstable Town Council. This is a\npoor way to start in a new role, as a town councilor elected for the first time in any\npublic office.

If you\nare talking at any meeting even a fraction as much as the Council is\ntalking, it distorts the purpose of the council meeting. It is for them to talk\nto each other. | have said to a number of people in the past few months |\nfeel the Council here over many years has been trained to be passive. If |\nwas on the Council | would ask you to answer questions in a pointed\nsuccinct way in 10 minutes or less and if you cannot, to return to the next\nmeeting with more succinct prepared answers. Second, it would be so\nhelpful if you gave a heads up on what is coming down the pike - for\nexample, like details of the form based code in a way that is\nunderstandable to lay persons when the business interests were given\naccess to the Town's consultant. So much going on and the\npublic generally gets word when it is time for a 1st read. That's late.\nForesight on big issues matters.\nOn the responsiveness, | have a bankers box.

Passing it on since you weren't on\nthe bench during the FBZ vote. | always write too much, and sorry for that. In particular, wanted to share the\nattachment that are quotes about the public process, parking ad leaving density to developers.\n| spent a few days recently in a fabulous old southern town. The tour guide explained preservation efforts,\nincluding rules like nothing taller than the tallest church, no tear downs, etc, He said this resulted from a small\ngroup of mad older ladies way back who kicked up a storm at developers. They are worshipped today, he\nsaid . History drives its strong tourist economy. Why would one not seek to preserve the history of Hyannis\nMain in this regard? Was the FBZ proposal ever presented to the Historic Commission for feedback and did\nthey support it as is?\nBecause | always ask about STR rules in these tourist places, it's not allowed the way it is here. You can have\nuP to four people in your home with you if you are home with them at the time. Here, we are as was said\nMonths ago, homes as hotels and hotels as homes. At the recent FBZ HAC/builders/chamber/realtors event\nrecently, Jenkins said no STR restrictions here because the developers’ \"audience\" is not that. What on earth\ndoes that mean? The audience is a buyer at the highest price point possible.\nTunnel Zoning. Creating a tunnel. a concern expressed at the Historic Commission meeting earlier this week,\nlooks like the plan.

His words.\nPublic Preferences and \"Really Big” Public Outreach. See the attached staff quotes. When we first\nleamed about the FBZ proposal (how? Jake Dewey called into the Zoning and Regulatory Subcommittee and\nasked when they would be acting on it. Paula said it was being worked on by the Eco Dev Tiask Force. That is\nhow people learned the Task Force became a Zoning body by the way....)\nBecause it was so out of public view, we went back and listened to all we could find. The attached are\ntranscriptions from Channel! 18. The public process on this was awful - a survey that 1% of Hyannis\nresponded to, showing pictures of lovely, warmly lit multifamilies and stark old single family homes asking\nwhich do you prefer? Picture from the survey below. Notably, twice the number of people signed a petition for\na Resident Zoning Task Force submitted to the Council that asked to put residents on equal footing with\ndevelopers in Zoning matters.... Staff then takes those preferences and assumes public support for zoning\nchanges. As if people are not smart enough to be asked about zoning preferences.\nThe other public process? A few workshops. The 2021 workshop had ~10 people: staff, 4 regulars, a few\nmore. Other workshops were ~30 people. This is imperfect - | did my best © go back and scan the workshop\nrooms and count after reading about the \"really big” public outreach.\nAt one meeting, when | called in and was seen on the zoom, there was a preface like \"for people in Hyannis...\"\nFact is when you eliminate parking people who frequent Hyannis to spend money won't.

It's a useful look.\nSome notable changes, among others you may see:\n1. Redeveloping/rezoning Villages. p. 55 The 2023 version proposed to\nmove formed based code from Hyannis to the CCC Community Activity\nCenters Osterville and Barnstable Village, and Jenkins added Centerville\nwith no explanation. The CCC called for multi-family by right 1/4 mile\naround village centers. Jenkins grew that in the 2023 version to 1/2 mile.\nFrom the Channel 18 video of the 2023 presentations, | took images and\nout them into a presentation to the OVA and this zoning change proposal\nis in the works, it's a big deal. etc. This was consistent with Planning's\n2020 announcement to Housing that they planned to move form based\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 785","text_sha256":"1eeefd2f41d6f233c79a1fb5c7e9f00138f4db786fca7273d91f837554c26ac4","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0785-01.webp","sha256":"ffb13e1e35f6af849fa253d5dfe0144f582a603624fa1b3b4de77eb65c34bf08","width":1020,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,791.0],"bytes":87370}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0786","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":786,"printed_page":786,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"code to other villages, which statement in minutes they've denied over and\nover. Ells came to a later OVA meeting and was asked about this image\nshowing his staff saying move this to those 3 villages. He said over and\nover there is no proposal to change zoning in the other villages. | said\nMark we are literally looking at your staff's work, not an interpretation of it.\nIt is in writing on the screen you are looking at (and it was well down the\nroad - on the way to Planning and then TC for March adoption.) He stuck\nto his script that there is no proposal. He later called it misinformation. This\nis all on You Tube.\nThe 2024 version has deleted the reference to zoning that was\nimplemented in the Hyannis and also deleted the specific villages to where\nit would be moved. It deletes the reference to 1/2 mile around the 3\nvillages and changes to “around villages\" or something like that. It's now a\nvague passage that goes to the same place but in such an unclear way\nthat no one knows what it means and thus, people will not react as they\nwould if this was plainly stated as it was in 2023. This same vague\nStrategy is in the draft LCP as well.\n2. Affordable Housing %. The# slipped down from April 2023 to now\nfrom 7.23 to 6.78. Of course it did. It will keep doing that with the build\nbuild model.\n3. Accessory Affordable Apartment Program. When the ADU ordinance\nwas under consideration, Jenkins reported at a meeting that the\nAccessory Affordable Apartment Program (a deed restriction) would stay\non the books but was expected to diminish by attrition. That program is an\naccessory dwelling unit permit program for unit rental to tenants below a\ncertain income level. My sister watched the ZBA agendas and did see that\nunit after unit were dropping out, as predicted after the ADU ordinance\npassed. In the ADU matter, the Council did not even talk about Felicia's\nsuggestion to include an affordability component in the rule. Mort and\nothers strongly opposed Felicia's suggestion for that in public comment.\nNow, the Planning Dept is saying let's financially incent this program that\nthey knew would suffer from attrition and did not want to track. On tracking\nthe affordability apartments they now want to incent, the former Housing\nStaff literally said no one has been tracking these units anyway. We can\nfind that. It was flippant.\n4. Planning Assumptions based on people who buy homes with a\nguest bedroom or office. The plan leaps to label a \"mismatch\" between\nhow many people live in a home and how many bedrooms a home has\nmeans there is a need for more studios and one bedrooms. Pretending to\nmind read homeowners and make assumptions about people's choices is\nnot the way to justify converting single families to multi-families or fo let\ndevelopers cram units into Main St. Hyannis.\nHope this is helpful.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 786","text_sha256":"c8a98c62afbfde06e306ba35058906bf28cdfaed069fc8c6567e8736105d5148","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0786-01.webp","sha256":"9f4106d5a271ffc8ee9f68802c8aaf1b6fd3c60aaa5ed3c16aca0f274308e4dc","width":1019,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,792.0],"bytes":139808}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0787","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":787,"printed_page":787,"width_points":626.0,"height_points":801.0,"text":"Heather Hunt\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263\n787","text_sha256":"3250a3d5a570f06f917942969d332d77653d22967861aadf99ed7a13a901a922","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":["short transcription"],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0787-01.webp","sha256":"a7942fdc112df7623580a1e2df64e1541b3dc39bf7a6f8d1a91132233517c263","width":1044,"height":1335,"crop_points":[0,0,626.0,801.0],"bytes":5572}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0788","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":788,"printed_page":788,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"From: CRAIG TAMASH\nSent: Thursday, May 29, 2025 3:49 PM\nTo: FOIA Mailbox\nSubject: Hunt\nAttachments: Planning Board 7-8-24.m4a\nCraig\nBegin forwarded message:\nFrom: heather hunt 4\nDate: July 10, 2024 at 08-17-43 DT\nTo: Ja =f\nCi\nGood morning -\nBelow are a few items in the context of the draft Housing Production Plan\n(HPP), with a few asks in blue. No need for a reply. | am writing to flag some\nissues following Monday's Planning Board meeting about the HPP.\n1. Public Presentation and Comment on Major Plans. The Planning\nDepartment put out a revised draft Housing Production Plan this spring. It had\nnot been talked about for over a year, and the new draft has not been\npresented substantively anywhere to my knowledge. Why is the substance of\nmajor plans presented to encourage public awareness and engagement?\nThe HPP was first on a Housing Committee agenda. No public showed up. It\nwas then on two Planning Board agendas. No public showed up at either\nmeeting. No member of either committee said why is no one here? What was\ndone to get public input? Has it been presented to civic associations?\nShould we do something?\n| sent the Planning Department 2 pages of public comment before the\nHousing Committee. | said | could not be there, and please record it as if |\nwas. When | later watched and saw no mention, | followed up. The staff reply\nwas we didn't know you meant it for the Housing Committee. They said it\nwould be sent to the Planning Board. The only mention of any public\ncomment at the Planning Board was my subsequent verbal request for maps\nto accompany land use changes, which the Planning Board Chair said that\nwas up to the LCP.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 7188","text_sha256":"0b9c00b3f822009e4ab8e707052985aa72c090335a158388694ec95a3aa6df1b","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0788-01.webp","sha256":"4c655533ac0b58cc8e5d612f99138bdad9f3f60e13ba22565fc6d5061f4fdc26","width":1020,"height":1317,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,790.0],"bytes":94548}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0789","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":789,"printed_page":789,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"In the April 25th Town Manager Report, Mark Ells said public comment on the\nHPP would be gathered and posted. That did not happen. Was there really no\nverbal or written comment? If | was literally the only person to send in\ncomments, is that not a flag that there is a problem with public awareness\nefforts? Or is no public engagement a goal because that is what it looks like\nto observers.\nCould you consider encouraging Town staff to give substantive\npresentations to the public on key draft plans that affect nearly all\nresidents? Take advantage of the fact that we have civic associations\nwhere residents meet, have other community groups and gatherings,\nand so on? These documents sit on the town website page 3 layers\ndeep, easily available to those who know to look, and how to look.\nThat's almost no one.\nSimilarly, the LCP draft chapters on land use and housing were put out\nfor comment with no public presentation of their substance. The turnout\nout was less than 1/2 of 1%, and those few people a) didn't hear\nsubstance and b) were proactively discouraged from discussing their\nviews but rather expressing themselves via dots on a board.\n2. Maps with Proposed Land Use Changes. On Monday, | asked the\nPlanning Department for maps that correspond with the land use changes in\nthe HPP. Staff said they would check in with the LCP leadership about maps.\nThe Planning Board Chair's verbal response to the map request was to say\nthe HPP sets out strategies and the LCP would determine the locations of\nzoning changes. Well, the LCP already put out land use and housing chapters\nfor feedback without maps (and without any substantive presentation at\nvillage meetings) and since April has ignored requests for. maps\ncorresponding to proposed land use changes\nIt is unreasonable and pointless to ask for public comment on land use\nchanges without maps. Withholding maps is not new. The first time | tracked a\nzoning issue here it as a former Councilor leading a land use change\nproposal at an ad hoc committee for ~6 months. He withheld maps until the\nvery last meeting. The maps showed he owned land where the land\nuse changes - what's called the strategy, now - were being proposed. This\nseparating of land use change proposals and maps/locations is a learned\ntactic to minimize reactions, in my view...\n| redlined the prior HPP draft and the revised version issued for comment.\nThe Planning Dept scrubbed out reference to changing zoning 1/2 mile\naround certain villages - which language Ells was asked about last year and\nmet with a really vigorous denial of any such proposal. That's on video. In this\nversion issued for comment, the village names are gone as is the reference to\n1/2 mile circumference around them where the prior draft said change zoning\nhere.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 789","text_sha256":"2b696be95be94f5b20d1d6a8f4253784104ef649b451a94de81157ff0344d08c","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0789-01.webp","sha256":"0af6f398c6132a737efb6983d22929295de745497b68f4f2d4ebf460d0613c27","width":1020,"height":1317,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,790.0],"bytes":133912}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0790","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":790,"printed_page":790,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"Earlier records, back in 2022, show the Planning Department telling the\nconsultant it \"had a lot of concern with the wording of the Goals and\nStrategies being public facing in the current format.\" The land use change\nwas not a concern - being direct with the public was.\nSo today, we have a scrubbed document to mitigate public reaction and no\nmaps.\nSee images below that show the editing out of the specific zoning change\nproposals that Mark Ells publicly and repeatedly denied existed when asked\nabout the prior draft.\nCould you consider asking that draft land use change proposals be\naccompanied by maps - as a matter of course and before public\ncomment?\n3. Planning Board members publicly question the validity of the new Ad\nHoc Subcommittees (audio from Channel 18 attached) and it reserved\nacting on the HPP until after the Ad Hocs review it. One member aiso\nexpressed concern about hoops the Ad Hoc Committees represent to get\nanything done.

This was rooted in watching prior leadership act as if\nthere was mayoral authority associated with the roles. This morning,\nsomeone sent me some information that puts a really fine point on the\nneed for code clarity to prevent assumed authorities and abuse of\nauthority. This pertains to HCA but that is not my point - the point of this is\nleadership\noverreach and the real need to contain that under the current form of\ngovernment.\nThat is, minutes and agendas show the Town Council prior actions to\nauthorize the Town Manager to negotiate HCAs was limited to authorizing\nthe Town Manager. First, in asking for such authority, the Town Manager\nreported in writing that \"Management and Town Council leadership have\nbeen closely engaged with VW on these subjects..\", these subjects being\nall things related to the proposals. Did the Council ever delegate\nauthority to leadership, who are /egis/ators, to work with Town\nmanagement out of earshot of other Councilors and without their input,\nand out of public view, on those matters?\nFurther, the same person sent me a link to a video where a corporate VP\nreported publicly that \"a Town Councilor” was \"very involved\" in two prior\nHCA negotiations. The Town Council's votes, per agendas and minutes, to\nauthorize the Town Manager to negotiate did not include authority or\ndelegation to any Town Councilor to engage in those confidential\nnegotiations, again outside of earshot of other Councilors and out of public\nview since this was all in confidence until after it was final and signed.

That is the\nattachment labeled Jenkins destroyed.\nThe bottom line, which took many email requests for clarity to ascertain, is\nthat a Department Director destroyed some public records between\nherself and the property owner that she said were personal in nature, and\nthen allowed a member of the public to access town-funded\nCommunications equipment and destroy more communications - the public\nrecords | sought, which were those about planning, zoning and\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 803","text_sha256":"4be0d528cc8e19ca5eafcbffe707ba55ca5fa2577f0d7ec2d1de7182e94768e5","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0803-01.webp","sha256":"494e32066a7413510346e4c4b7913602e97f90882b62b4ec4965b5c813130150","width":1020,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,791.0],"bytes":97252}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0804","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":804,"printed_page":804,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":791.0,"text":"development. | asked the Town if there was a plan to correct this alarming\ninformation about the ability of a member of the public to access public\ntecords and destroy them.

This predates other actions,\nincluding moving the Form Based Zoning proposal to a self-appointed\nEconomic Development Task Force run out of public view (no Town\nwebsite presence that other public bodies have, which precluded public\nawareness until the public heard about it randomly and asked for agendas\nand minutes years later.) It also omits details about the Planning Director's\nrole in the Planning Board's need to \"re do\" an ordinance development\nprocess. That is, the then-Chair participated while conflicted. Residents\nsaw that and asked for a conflict review. He then recused himself. After his\nrecusal, the Planning Director, according to the then Vice Chair, allowed\nthe conflicted and recused Chair to write the Planning Board Report to the\nTown Council. When residents noticed this in the Report language and\nasked about it, the Town Attorney declared this ethics violation was a\n\"procedural irregularity\" that required the process to be redone without his\nparticipation. This series of events is all in minutes, on video and in\nmemos, which | have. It seems the former Planning Board's misconduct\nwas excused because he was a volunteer (he was reappointed to the\nPlanning Board and also made Chair of the Local Comprehensive Plan\nCommittee). The Planning Director however is a paid professional who is\ntrained and charged with conducting public business properly. There is a\nlong record of that not happening. The recent record destruction is only\nthe most recent example.\nThank you for considering addressing the issue | raise.\nHeather Hunt\nResident, Barnstable\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 804","text_sha256":"78a9257b9942b44be81bdfef74bf6f2521b5e4fbeb5f47f83135c6fa1961fa2c","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0804-01.webp","sha256":"c3fb9f092d29abe07ce48a1d1b04654f565a537c82e00cce44c5dc140dc2eae0","width":1020,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,791.0],"bytes":129792}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0805","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":805,"printed_page":805,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"The Commonwealth of Massachusetts\nWilliam Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth\nPublic Records Division\nManza Arthur\nSupervisor of Records\nOctober 30, 2023\nSPR23/2612\nHeather Hunt\na\nDear Heather Hunt:\nIhave received your letter appealing the response of the Town of Barnstable - Office of\nTown Clerk to your request for records.\nIhave directed a member of my staff, Connor McElroy, Esq., to review this matter.

Given the sensitives of the community, we felt it important to make the\nAssociation aware of this activity and also confirm that impending construction will not\nbe impacting the bulk of Main Street or the Village Center\nPer the construction schedule, the contractor anticipates fult construction mobilization\nto occur in late February or early March. We will continue to keep you informed of\nplanned activities as we approach excavation in the roadway.\nShould you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.\nBest,\nKelly\nKelly Collopy\nCommunications Manager\nBarnstable Department of Public Works\nkelly.collop y @ town.barnstable.ma.us\n774-487-5782\nSewer questions?

Its “Key Step” is to\n“outreach” and “educate” about “zoning changes proposed at Town meetings” - which Town\nmeetings she chairs.\nIt is impossible for any person to believe that Chair Northcross will be impartial in her LCP role\nwhile she serves on a regional board that has adopted a key step to “educate” towns at town\nmeetings on the CCC zoning change proposals.\n@ With CCC funding, an organization on which Chair Northcross was a Director,\npartnered with the Housing Assistance Corporation (HAC)\" in a land use Mapping\nExercise.\"* It tagged locations in Barnstable as “High Priority” for dense development -\nfor “Land acquisitions and uses, zoning changes...”, and to “[RJezone identified priority\nareas for housing to simplify and streamline the development of multi-family housing\n\"4HAC has stood with the Chambers, Realtors and Builders lobbies and silent on mainstream STR rules used\nsuccessfully by communities with thriving tourist-based economies.\n‘5 https://growsmartcapecod.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/HAC-Grow-Smart-Barnstable.pdf\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 824","text_sha256":"0692b7dcf9e06e98ea24440a9f697cef14d9c85591134bf202c080dcfc228bc2","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0824-01.webp","sha256":"d6403bf971c48bba5e08d35f3996e318f04cf575e7d36036ae54d93bdba4e567","width":1019,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,791.0],"bytes":129230}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0825","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":825,"printed_page":825,"width_points":610.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"opportunities ....”\"° These “High Priority” density development maps were published\nwith three organizations’ logos.”\nAfter her involvement in a CCC-funded land use “Mapping Exercise” that tagged specific areas for\ndense development in Barnstable, the LCP committee chaired by Northcross issued draft land use\nand housing proposals for public comment without maps. It is curious to say the least for a public\nbody to ask for public input on land use change proposals without maps.\nMonths later, and after people asked for maps at public meetings with no reply, the LCP announced\nits own “Mapping Exercise,” like Chair Northcross’ organization had done earlier with CCC funds.\nIt is not possible for a reasonable person to believe Chair Northcross can objectively assess public\nviews in the current local land use “Mapping Exercise” when she has already participated in a CCC-\nfunded Mapping Exercise that tagged “High Priority” areas in Barnstable for density development\nand rezoning.\nIt is acceptable for a non-profit, such as the one on which Chair Northcross was a director, using\npublic funds from the CCC to identify and advocate about where they want to target dense\ndevelopment. However, one who has done so cannot then serve on a public body and objectively\nassess public input without bias or favoritism on the very same questions.\n@ Chair Northcross’ preference for CCC regional housing plan over local preferences is\nnot new.

Forgive me if | mention something you have covered in a meeting | have not yet watched.\n| was pleased to hear your discussion a few meetings ago about whether and when to make note of when\nCouncilors are not present. Closely related to that, | want to discuss the importance of properly noting\nwhen officials and employees recuse themselves from meetings. It’s common in Barnstable for\nindividuals to exit meetings without announcing their recusal, leading to confusion for those present or\nwatching later. I've experienced this firsthand when members of the ZBA left without explanation when |\nsought to have my rights adjudicated. It happened another time when | sought appointment to a\ncommittee. A Councilor signed off with no word. | didn't know whether she had to use the lady's room or\nrecused. This happens with experienced staff too: throughout the last year, an employee repeatedly just\ndropped away from meetings of a board that gives out public money for housing.\nThis passive approach to recusals seems to be accepted here. | believe that by codifying a simple\ndirective that requires individuals to state their recusal before leaving, we can improve clarity and\naccountability in our meetings.\nIn case you are advised that such a measure is unnecessary since officials and employees are already\nexpected to announce their recusals, | ask you to consider the reality that many do not follow through in\npractice. By emphasizing this protocol in the Town Code, the Committee has the opportunity to reset\nexpectations and foster a more transparent environment.\nRelated to that, I'd like to urge you to note in the Town Code the need to submit Conflict of Interest\nDisclosure Forms before acting in one's official capacity. This is particularly relevant in Barnstable,\nwhere we've seen many instances that highlight the need for this.\nI'll offer a range of examples - appointed, elected and staff - to illustrate the need since you might be\nadvised this is not necessary or that training could solve the problem. The current LCP Chair, who has\nbeen in her role for several years, has operated a commercial Airbnb in a property she does not reside in\nwhile serving on the LCP Committee that has recommended granting financial incentives for short-term\nrental operators like herself to long-term rent. It’s been reported that she filed a disclosure after she\nworked on the recommendations, and only after concerns were publicly mentioned. That's not a\nsolution. Similarly, a senior staff member disclosed a personal relationship after meeting with that\nindividual about how to access public funds from sources she staffed. A former Town Council President\ndisclosed a professional relationship after making an official appearance before the Appointments\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 828","text_sha256":"48c04b3408572eac7a03e55cfbc6175f2405ae3f7b7251967ee1e80cc81fed39","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0828-01.webp","sha256":"714fda527db96e73e82c0f50a09638eb480b660b9faca545dc0312ce1edf4a75","width":1019,"height":1319,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,791.0],"bytes":161338}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0829","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":829,"printed_page":829,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":793.0,"text":"Committee on behalf of his colleague and casting many votes for him. These instances reveal a trend\nwhere officials delay disclosures until prompted by public scrutiny, suggesting a cultural issue that\ntolerates after the fact disclosures.\nIn case you are advised that state rules are sufficient or alternatively hear that training would suffice,\nplease consider that in Barnstable there is acommon practice among seasoned officials and staff to\npostpone disclosures until issues arise from the observing public. This reactive practice undermines the\npurpose of such disclosures.\nTo change this culture, it Would be beneficial to incorporate a requirement in the Town Code that\ncompels officials and employees to file disclosures prior to acting in their official capacities, with\nconsequences for noncompliance.\nThank you for considering these views.\nHeather Hunt\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 829","text_sha256":"a84079c6bb7ef416e6898ab9d02c52bb65d3213d175d6d1b2ad00af0c75dd8ba","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0829-01.webp","sha256":"c972ee34d97a7176e39a6e6bea4ae7d0f54d2ca73ee358c8bef8b72e9ac3b16d","width":1019,"height":1322,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,793.0],"bytes":46528}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0830","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":830,"printed_page":830,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":793.0,"text":"Fair, Marylou\nFrom: Terkelsen, Kristin <Kristin.

To me, it was odd and confusing. It prompted me to say take 30 more\ndays as | didn’t even know the 14-day response period applied to signs, my request was certainly not\nurgent, and | understood people are busy.\nIt brought back memories of my prior request for enforcement years ago.

Back then, like today, it troubled me that enforcement was commenting on my education as ff it\nwas relevant to the services | sought. Whether | was a land use lawyer- I’m not - or was in the trades, or\nhospitality, or a person who worked at home raising kids, none of it matters to enforcement requests.\nEveryone should have comparable information and experience. Back then | called this Enforcement\nJustice problem.\nRather than complain about that again, | poked around the web. | try here to offer some suggestions that |\nbelieve may be low or no cost and would ease the experience for all residents whether lawyers who know\nhow to find information and deadlines and rights, or someone for whom English is a second language.\nEveryone who is a taxpayer should have easy access to the how to, where, what’s next and so on.

The $178,000 in\nARPA funding the Town received to plan the redevelopment of the area is a drop in the bucket.\nThe budget for the Marstons Mills playground in the Town of Barnstable Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)\nlists the cost of the playground project at $682,000. And that's short money for a playgrounds these days.\nThe Centerville playground budget was $1 million. Not to be out done, the Osterville playground will cost\nbetween $1.2 to 1.8 million.\nThe high cost for these playgrounds is caused by the bundling water and sewer enhancements with\nModest playground features. Mother's Park in Centerville will be enlarged to include a pump station for\nthe sewer line which is expected to run up from Craigville Beach. The Marston's Mills school property will\ninclude a pump station, plus water and sewer for a new neighborhood (that no one wants).\nThe cost of these pump stations is extraordinary. The pump station at 725 Main Street received ARPA\nfunding to the tune of $1.9MM from Barnstable County. This represents our entire ARPA allocation from\nthe County. All of these funds have been expended.\nThe entire Route 28 West Sewer Expansion is expected to cost $59 million. The project is \"In design\" and\nconstruction is anticipated to commence in 2025. It was ranked #3 in the 2024 Draft Clean Water Fund\nIntended Use Plan (IUP) and in April 2024, the Town Council approved the $59 Million appropriation to\nfund construction.\n(Please note: In January 2023 the cost of this expansion project was estimated at $35 million. Estimates\nhave almost doubled in two years!)\nThe Route 28 West Sewer Expansion will extend municipal sewer on Route 28 from Phinney’s Lane to\nRoute 149 in Marstons Mills, including Old East Osterville Road, Oldham Road, portions of Osterville-\nWest Barnstable Road, and Bumps River Road. Ultimately, this project acts as the backbone of the\nplan’s westward expansion, allowing for sewer expansion within the Three Bays and Popponesset Bay\nWatersheds.\nAlso included in this project would be the decommissioning of the Marstons Mills Wastewater Treatment\nPlant (MMWWTP) with conveyance of the plants service area back to the Water Pollution Control Facility\n(WPCF). The project will include the construction of over 27,000 LF of new sewers, install five new sewer\npump stations, connect approximately 233 properties to municipal sewer, collect approximately 50,000\ngallons of wastewater per day, and remove approximately 5.0kg/day of nitrogen.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 863","text_sha256":"bd385c8f2cde487680752845017410e6dde3eb5d627840de4a37fb564687466a","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0863-01.webp","sha256":"35959b6ade28a9da6eacfcf885780f2c8b6bb85d1039c0ad4064f744443959e6","width":1019,"height":1317,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,790.0],"bytes":153758}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0864","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":864,"printed_page":864,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"The problem for the Mills is that sewer lines aren't cheap and saving the environment doesn't pay the\nbills.

Does anyone care to comment? The storyline out. Does the toen have a\nposition on this announcement?\nWe've unraveled part of the story of the mystery move planned for Saint\nJoseph's shelter at 77 Winter St. The Catholic Charities are targeting 460 West\nMain Street for their 50 bed shelter some time this year. This location is a short\nstones throw from several West Main Street institutions including HyWest\nElementary School, Steve and Sue's Par-Tee Freeze, and Barnstable Brewing.\nThe funding for this extravagance comes to us courtesy of the Housing\nAssistance Corporation (HAC) which received $3 million in ARPA funds.\nAs the story goes...Alisa Magnotta, CEO of HAC, money in hand stormed into the\nTown Manager's office in early December, blurted out that SHE is moving the\nshelter to West Main and left. That was it. She spun around on her $450 heels\nand marched out of the office.\nMark Ells was reportedly flabbergasted. He had no idea what to say and called\nBetty Ludtke to inform her of Magnotta's pronouncement. Councilor Ludtke\nsaid that Mr. Ells was genuinely apologetic.\nCounty Commissioner Ron Bergstrom warned in the press when he awarded\nthe funding to Magnotta that permitting may be a challenge due to stigma\nagainst unhoused people. He said he saw this first-hand during his time on the\nBarnstable County Assembly of Delegates.\n“There could be bumps in the road. Not everybody likes services provided to\nthe homeless—they would rather just pretend they don't exist,” he said. But, he\nadded, “besides the financial support through ARPA, you certainly have my\nsupport and the support of the commissioners as you go through the process.”\nHerschler PRR #2025-0263 869","text_sha256":"2414d61ef14f95b2a89cd109117a92989bb632928b1ea408ca9c66d5c37c968a","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0263/0869-01.webp","sha256":"719d10eabbd138f66d9160e96948de18a9da00881e7bb36328c20b13a0fe9f1c","width":1019,"height":1317,"crop_points":[0,0,611.0,790.0],"bytes":135080}]},{"id":"TBR-0263-0870","source":"TBR-0263","pdf_page":870,"printed_page":870,"width_points":611.0,"height_points":790.0,"text":"Apparently, it never occured to Bergstrom to pick up the phone and smooth\nthe path for this ambitious project.\nSusan Mazzarella, CEO of Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Fall River\nreportedly said, “This will help fulfill a critical need for an accessible shelter\nthat provides wraparound services including training and education, medical\nrespite and other health services.\nThis regional approach will also achieve a longstanding goal of the Town of\nBarnstable to shift human services programs away from the central Hyannis\nBusiness and visitor district.”\nl asked several Councilors from Barnstable about the statement that this is a\n\"longstanding goal of the Town of Barnstable to shift human services programs\naway from the central Hyannis Business and visitor district.“ A Councilor I\nspoke with replied, \"When did we have that meeting.”\nI wrote Janes Kupfer, Director of Planning and Development to ask about the\npermitting. Kupfer responded, \"I have confirmed with the Building\nCommissioner that no application or request for permits for this proposal has\nbeen received at this time.

Overbuilding on the Cape and the\nrapid rise in year-round population are draining the Cape’s sole source of drinking water—our fragile\naquifer.\nThere is only so much water to go around.\nYet Town policies continue to promote the reckless development of luxury housing that few of us can\nafford. As we learned, more than 72% of all new construction in the Industrial Park is being leased by\nnon-Barnstable residents. With the approval of Wilkens II, there are now 993 units permitted or under\nconstruction outside of Hyannis in addition to the 733 apartments already permitted or under\nconstruction in Hyannis.\nWorse still, as reported at CFAC, our current sewer funding scheme effectively subsidizes these\nprojects. Not only are we failing to address the affordable housing crisis, we are actively pursuing a path\nthat is unsustainable—socially, economically, and environmentally.\n| urge you to consider a pause in new construction until we can determine how much development our\nnatural systems can realistically support. Ata minimum, you should consider declaring a building\nmoratorium. Better still, designate the entire Growth Incentive Zone in Hyannis as a District of Critical\nPlanning Concern (DCPC).\nYou are our elected representatives. We expect you to make the tough choices. Now is the moment: do\nwe accept certain ruin, a temporary pause, or a meaningful reset of the form-based zoning that has\ngutted the historic village of Hyannis?\nLet’s act before it is too late.

Total PFAS was 237.9 ng/L, second only to nearby Hyannis Creek. While there’s no federal limit for\nPFAS in surface water yet, these numbers raise serious public health and environmental concerns.\nOur best approach would be to surround Aunt Betty's pond with goodness. We can build inflow wetlands\nby Mitchell’s Way to filter nutrients and capture PFAS-laden sediments flowing down from Pleasant Hill.\nAnd, we could treat water flowing into Stewarts Creek ftom the pond by pumping water from the culvert\nat 725 Msin St. through granular activated carbon.\nThis could be a high-profile demonstration project, putting Barnstable at the forefront as Massachusetts\ndevelops PFAS regulations for surface water.

Since the pumps\nwere shuttered we've recorded modest improvements in water levels.\nEdwin Hoopes informed me today that he did not review the dewatering plan\nyou provided as the pump station was outside the area within his jurisdiction\n(50 feet from the creek).\n| read that the dewatering plan submitted by the contractor had 1220 foot\nzone of influence.

The charming cottages, mid-century motels, and historic Victorian\nWith cach ps\nthat millions of travelers come to\ning week, my village of Hyannis looks le like the quintessential Cape Cod destination\nhomes that once defined our community are disappearing, replaced by towering four-story high-rises and\nsprawling luxury mansions.\nNow, yet another irreplaceable piece of our heritage is under thr\nthe home of Civil Rights activist Eugenia\nFortes.\nIn 1945, while working in Hyannis Port, Fortes visited what was then known as East Beach off lyannough\nAvenue. When ordered by a police officer to leave, she refused, taking a stand against the segregation and\nracism of the time. That same beach now proudly bears her name.\nFortes’ legacy and impact extend far beyond that courageous act. She co-founded Cape Cod’s chapter of the\nNAACP and served on the Hyannis Public Library Board of Directors for forty\nHill Lane welcomed national figures, including furure Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall and\nears. Her home at 23 Pleasant\nReverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.\nThat same home, steeped in both local and national significance, is now threatened by a development that\noffers not the affordable housing needed, bur yet another batch of unattainable luxury condominiums.\nThis is not the kind of progress Hyannis needs.\nOur community deserves development that honors its character and employs adaptive reuse to preserve our\narchitectural and cultural history. We should be encouraging thoughtful, contextual design that reflects the\nspirit of our Main Streets and neighborhoods, rather than replacing it with structures that render our village\nunrecognizable.\nIt doesn’t have to be this way.\nI urge our elected officials and committee members to demand better. Use every available tool, including\ndemolition delays. Work with developers on projects that enhance and preserve, rather than erase, the soul of\nHyannis. I also call on residents—my neighbors—to speak up and hold leaders and developers accountable to\nthis standard.\nSaving the Eugenia Fortes House is\njust che beginning.\nIn a time when many feel powerless, remember real change begins at the local level. Your voice can make a\nbold and lasting impact. Together, we can preserve the cultural heritage, history, and architectural identity of\nHyannis for generations to come.\nRespectfully,\nHerschler PHendhoas Lo Patlill 63","text_sha256":"46cc57db05b167426d5873e8480fea536534cc5130d892c2dcd8c45e43f562f9","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-01/0063-01.webp","sha256":"0ac36db060dc4feadc4d9867901e31780d5c8a031189149d0480ea2df053d61d","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":85864}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-02-0001","source":"TBR-0472-02","pdf_page":1,"printed_page":64,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Fair, Marylou\nFrom:\nSent:\nTo:\nCe:\nSubject:\nGood morning Ms. Brown\nEric Schwaah ———— Te,\nWednesday, July 23, 2025 10:38 AM\nErica\nBloom, Charles\nLetter from Ms. Ratliff- Preserving Hyannis before Barnstable Historic Commission on\n7-15-2025\nWhen you get a chance can you send me a copy of the letter by Jennifer Ratcliff which was read into the\nrecord at the 7-15 Barnstable Historical Commissuon meeting.\nIt was a good letter regarding the fate of a property owned by Eugenia Fortes at 23 Pleasant Hill Lane.\nAlso, if you don't mind, please let Bob know that | will publish findings about 23 Pleasant Hill Lane which\ngenerally reconfirm his decision to allow the house to be demolished.

Over the past five days alone, 3.6 million gallons of water have been\nwithdrawn.\nThis activity appears to be influencing surface water and wetlands approximately 1,000 feet away,\nincluding a creek and associated wetland area behind 3w Pleasant Lane.\nThese resources are protected under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (M.G.L. c. 131, 840),\nand any alteration of wetland hydrology would typically require an Order of Conditions and compliance\nwith state performance standards.\nAdditionally, withdrawals of this magnitude far exceed the 100,000 gallons per day threshold under the\nWater Management Act, which generally requires a permit from MassDEP. | respectfully request\nclarification on the following:\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 82","text_sha256":"dfe6916237de863f8fcdeba7b80e0a15abd8aed90c68a6c3ffc7aef1622beb13","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-02/0019-01.webp","sha256":"187910655a0482cfd54f17be0d4054451477d66d140ff9999305d4f83cd9fb48","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":98006}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-02-0020","source":"TBR-0472-02","pdf_page":20,"printed_page":83,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Has an Order of Conditions been issued by the Barnstable Conservation Commission for this activity?

Methodology Approach\nFiscal Impact Analyses can have many connotations, this analysis will follow the\nclassic definition of fiscal impact as follows “A projection of the direct, current public\ncosts and revenues associated with residential or nonresidential growth to the local\njurisdiction in which the growth is taking place*.”\nThere are a number of methodologies that are used to estimate fiscal impacts of\nproposed development projects. The Per Capita Multiplier Method is the most often\nused analysis to determine municipal cost allocation. This method is the classic\n“average” costing method for projecting the impact of population growth on local\nspending patterns and is used to establish the costs of existing services for a new\ndevelopment. The basic premise of this method is that current revenue/cost ratios\nper person and per unit are a potential indicator of future revenue/cost impacts\noccasioned by growth. New capital expenditures required for provision of services\nto a development are not added to current costs; instead, the present debt service\nfor previous improvements is included to represent ongoing capital projects. The\nadvantage of this approach is its simplicity of implementation and its wide\nacceptance by both consultants and local officials. The downside of this approach\nis that the methodology calculates the “average” cost as being the expected cost,\nwhich is often not the case, and costs are exaggerated - significantly in some\n4 Burchell.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 99","text_sha256":"5135ca4306c37b385bebc97ed5a34d4ca4cd85ff17d7906568b9d3ad1da55a94","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-02/0036-01.webp","sha256":"3ecc47f77062e982114a3e89eea6bd5f9d07c3404e2e1575911a66aeafdf300e","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":88788}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-02-0037","source":"TBR-0472-02","pdf_page":37,"printed_page":100,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"instances.

The “true cost” could be significantly less,\nespecially in those communities with declining enrollment.)\nThe Marginal Cost Approach is a more realistic methodology that can be used to\nestimate and measure developmental impacts based on actual costs that occur in\nthe community. At this time, a “level of service” exists in Barnstable to serve the\ncommunity. This existing service level, for the most part, addresses the needs of\nthe community through existing tax collections. As new development occurs,\npressures are placed on some departments to address increased demands, while\nother departments experience negligible, if any impacts.

(VAI) has completed a review of access and circulation associated with the\nHanover Apartments Phase II multifamily residential development to be located at 35-99 Wilkens Lane in\nthe Village of Hyannis in the Town of Barnstable, Massachusetts (hereafter referred to as the “Project”).\nSpecifically, this review focuses on the location of the proposed driveway along Wilken’s Lane and its\nproximity to the south driveway that serves the Hanover Hyannis residential development, as well as\nopportunities to develop a bicycle connection between the Project site and Kidd’s Hill Road that will allow\nfor connectivity to the Phase 4 extension of the Cape Cod Rail Trail.\nProject Site Driveway Review\nThe Project site driveway will intersect the west side of Wilkens Lane approximately 400 feet north of the\ndriveway that serves the Wilkens Outpatient Medical Complex and is situated approximately 100 feet south\nof the south driveway that serves the Hanover Hyannis residential development (measured between the\nsouth curbline of the Hanover Hyannis driveway and the north curbline of the Project site driveway). As\ndocumented in the September 2024 Transportation Impact Assessment (the “September 2024 TIA”), the\navailable lines of sight to and from the Project site driveway along Wilkens Lane exceed 375 feet where a\nminimum sight distance of 250 feet is required for safe operation of the driveway based on an approach\nspeed of 35 miles per hour (mph), which is consistent with the posted speed limit along Wilkens Lane.\nThe Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) Project Development and Design Guide\n(PDDG)! provides guidance for intersection spacing based on the design speed of the intersecting roadway\n(Wilkens Lane in the case of the Project site driveway). For a 35 mph design speed, the suggested spacing\nbetween adjacent roadways is 200 feet; however, the PDDG acknowledges that this spacing desirable but\nmay not be achievable. In such cases, as long as the drivers exiting both driveways have a clear line of\nsight to view exiting maneuvers from both driveways, the driveways can operate in a safe manner.

We note that vehicles\nexiting the driveways will be under stop control and that the speed of vehicles exiting the driveways over\nthe 125 foot distance will not exceed 15 mph, which requires a minimum sight distance of 80 feet to perceive\nand react to a potential conflict.\nKidd’s Hill Road Bicycle Connection\nPhase 4 of the extension of the Cape Cod Rail-Trail will include a segment this is planned along the south\nside of Kidd’s Hill Road between Phinney’s Lane and Independence Drive. A review of opportunities to\nconnect the Project and the Wilkens Lane corridor to the future rail-trail extension was undertaken, a\ndiscussion of which follows.\nWilkens Lane provides a traveled-way that is approximately 26-feet in width, within which the paved area\nis striped to accommodate two 12+ foot wide travel lanes that are separated by a double-yellow centerline\nwith 1+ foot wide marked shoulders along both sides of the roadway. A 5-foot wide paved sidewalk is\nprovided along the east side of Wilkens Lane between Attucks Lane and the driveway to the\nWilkens Outpatient Medical Complex where a marked crosswalk is provided across Wilkens Lane to the\nnorth of the driveway. North of the Wilkens Outpatient Medical Complex driveway, the sidewalk shifts to\nthe west side of the roadway and continues to Kidd’s Hill Road.\nThe current width of the traveled-way along Wilkens Lane does not afford an opportunity to restripe the\nroadway to provide bicycle lanes within the paved area. A minimum roadway cross-section of 32-feet\nwould be required to provide two 11-foot (12-foot desirable) wide travel lanes with 5-foot wide bicycle\nlanes along both side of the roadway. As such, the following opportunities will be reviewed in consultation\nwith Cape Cod Commission and the Town of Barnstable to provide a connection to the rail-trial extension\nalong Kidd’s Hill Road:\no Widen the existing 5-foot wide sidewalk along Wilkens Lane between Attucks Lane and Kidd’s\nHill Road to provide a 10-foot wide shared-use path;\no Provide an off-road pathway that would connect the existing and proposed uses along Wilkens\nLane to Kidd’s Hill Road; or\no Acombination of both options.\nThese options will be explored as a part of the Project and the preferred alternative will be designed and\nconstructed as a part of the Project subject to receipt of all necessary rights, permits and approvals.\nSummary\nIn summary, VAI has completed a review of access and circulation associated with the Hanover Apartments\nPhase II multifamily residential development to be located at 35-99 Wilkens Lane in the Village of Hyannis\nin the Town of Barnstable, Massachusetts. Based on this review, it has been concluded that the Project site\ndriveway is appropriately located along Wilkens Lane to function in a safe manner and that opportunities\nexist to create a connection between the Project site and Kidd’s Hill Road that will be developed in\nconsultation with the Cape Cod Commission and the Town of Barnstable.\n2\nG9800 Bamstable, MA\\Memos\\Hanover Apts II Access and Circulation Review 01.09.25.docx\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 122","text_sha256":"7ba2237943d6cb9a548ce2feb9e36e315ff54c4e09e825f54e7e00c373431dc9","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-02/0059-01.webp","sha256":"442ac8d5ad3921785b8c9d226a06ccff670f5d0893f9996b3184f15d6c3bf1d3","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":126522}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-02-0060","source":"TBR-0472-02","pdf_page":60,"printed_page":123,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Fair, Marylou\nFrom: Bloom, Charles <Charles.Bloom@town.barnstable.ma.us>\nSent: Wednesday, July 9, 2025 12:11 PM\nTo: Eric Schwaab\nSubject: Re: Bob Frazee's number\nCharlie Bloom\nTown Councilor\nPrecinct 9 Hyannis\nTown of Barnstable\nSent from my iPhone\nThis device is the property of the Town of Barnstable.

Its purpose is to clarify the procedure for nominating and\ndesignating Districts of Critical Planning Concern.\nWhat is a DCPC?\nA District of Critical Planning Concern (DCPC) is an area of critical value to Barnstable County\nwhich must be preserved or maintained due to one or more of the following factors:\n1. the presence of significant natural coastal, scientific, cultural, architectural, archaeological,\nhistoric, economic or recreational resources or values of regional, state-wide or national\nsignificance; or\n2. the presence of substantial areas of sensitive ecological conditions which render the area\nunsuitable for development; or\n3. the presence or proposed establishment of a major capital public facility or area of public\ninvestment.\nDCPCs may cover areas located in one or more than one town. Districts may be nominated and\ndesignated for many purposes. For example, they may protect a municipal investment, protect a\ncritical natural resource, or provide incentives for economic development. For a list of sample\ndistricts, see attached Appendix A.\nHow does a DCPC work?\nA DCPC designation allows for creation and adoption of local special rules and regulations to\ngovern development or other land use within a designated district. These special rules and\nregulations, called \"Implementing Regulations,\" must promote the purposes for which the district\nwas designated. Implementing Regulations, once they are certified by the Commission, are the\nmeans by which development or other land use is regulated within a district. For example,\nImplementing Regulations for a district which is designated to promote village center revitalization\nmay provide incentives for development more dense than is otherwise permitted under existing\nregulations. Implementing Regulations for a district designated to protect a critical environmental\nresource may provide safeguards to prevent inappropriate development. Once a DCPC is\ndesignated and Implementing Regulations are adopted and incorporated into local by-laws and\nregulations, town agencies will oversee development and land use within the designated district,\nsubject to the Implementing Regulations.\nWhy seek a DCPC designation?\nA DCPC designation will allow a community or communities to:\n+ Protect and promote a value or resource identified by the Cape Cod Commission Act;\n+ Achieve some of the goals of its Local Comprehensive Plans;\n+ Effect a development moratorium during which development approaches and regulations that do\nnot exist may be carefully considered and, as appropriate, adopted;\n* Overcome local zoning constraints, including grandfathering.\nPage |\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 144","text_sha256":"26c75900bb4714a2776cf86d4ce380bcd070848352088ae79aa059c352bab871","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-02/0081-01.webp","sha256":"99f6111691770283158cb608a625a61b1bfbf0dc6f851a857bcd9ead2b8988dd","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":127772}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-02-0082","source":"TBR-0472-02","pdf_page":82,"printed_page":145,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Cape Cod Commission DCPC Guidance Document 12/90 Rev 7/13\nA nominated area should require a special regulatory or planning effort which cannot otherwise be\nadequately addressed through existing local regulations. For instance, projects which would be\ngrandfathered from changes in local zoning under the state enabling statute need not be afforded\ngrandfathered status under Implementing Regulations adopted pursuant to a DCPC designation.\nWho may nominate a proposed district?\nAny area may be nominated for designation by the:\na) Cape Cod Commission\nb) Barnstable County Commissioners\nc) Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates\nAreas within towns, or areas in neighboring, contiguous towns, may be nominated by:\nd) boards of selectmen, historical commissions, planning boards, boards of health or\nconservation commissions.\nNominating parties (other than the Commission) must schedule a pre-application conference with\nCommission staff at which time submission requirements and the District Nomination Form will be\ndiscussed. Nominations should be delivered to the Commission Clerk in hand or by certified mail.\nNominating parties may hold a public hearing prior to submitting a proposed district to the\nCommission in order to determine the level of local support for the nomination.\nHow does the public participate in the DCPC process?\nThe public participates in the DCPC designation process through public hearings by providing oral\nand written comments. Materials submitted on all nomination may be viewed at the Commission's\noffice during the Commission's business hours, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.\nUpon receipt of a fully completed application for nomination, including completion of the\nCommission’s Nomination Form, the Commission will: (1) publish an official notice of the receipt\nof a nomination in the Cape Cod Times; such notice will suspend the issuance of local development\nand subdivision permits; (2) publish informational notices in area newspapers; and (3) mail notice\nto local boards. The Commission will consider acceptance of the nomination at a public meeting.\nIf the nomination is accepted by the Commission for consideration as a designated DCPC, the\nCommission will hold a public hearing in the town or one of the towns within which the nominated\narea or a portion thereof is located. The Assembly of Delegates also holds a public hearing on the\nproposed designation. The purpose of the public hearings is to gather public comments on the\nproposed designation. Notice of hearings will be advertised in area newspapers and mailed to local\nboards and other interested persons. Information about stages of the DCPC nomination and\ndesignation process will also be published in the Commission's official publication, the\nREPORTER.\nPage 2\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 145","text_sha256":"9029fa1fd125ddb6ba75f755f3e0ccd3a4d78b7486474ffe5ba4ce6cbfae04d4","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-02/0082-01.webp","sha256":"74d9708928b3d00b8111f4852d9c86baf73e8f45d3b85a75db913fb670ac04dd","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":129654}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-02-0083","source":"TBR-0472-02","pdf_page":83,"printed_page":146,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Cape Cod Commission DCPC Guidance Document 12/90 Rev 7/13\nWhat procedures will the Commission use to review and process a\nnomination?\nUpon receipt of a nomination application, the Commission will make an initial review of the\napplication for completeness. The Commission may request further information on the nomination\nas it deems necessary. Upon receipt of a fully completed application, the Commission will review\nthe proposed area and the reasons for its nomination. Within 45 days of receiving the completed\nnomination application, the Commission must either reject the nomination, or accept it and proceed\nwith a full public review. Rejection of a nomination restores local permit granting authority and\nmay limit reconsideration of the area. Upon acceptance of a nomination, the Commission will:\na) describe the reasons for acceptance of the nominated area, including a description of the\narea's critical concern to the region, the problems of uncontrolled or inappropriate development\nor other land use activities in the area and the advantages anticipated from the regulation of\ndevelopment or other land use activities of the area in a controlled manner; and\nb) define the types and classes of development which may proceed during the\nnomination/designation process; and\nc) specify guidelines for development or land use in the district based upon findings relating to\nthe critical concerns in the area. The guidelines will describe suggested land use or\ndevelopment regulations which will govern future activities in a manner appropriate to the\ndistrict.\nIf the Commission accepts the nomination after the 45-day review, then within 60 days of\nacceptance of the nomination, or 120 days by extension, the Commission will hold a public hearing\nand decide whether or not to forward the previously nominated area to the Assembly of Delegates\nand County Commissioners for adoption by ordinance.\nWhat is the effect of a nomination?\nAfter receiving a fully completed nomination application, the Commission publishes an official\nnotice of the nomination. Publication of official notice has the effect of suspending all local\nagencies’ permitting authority within the nominated area for 45 days. If the Commission decides to\nfurther consider the nomination for acceptance after the end of the 45 day period, then local\nagencies’ permitting authority continues to be suspended within the nominated area, except that the\nfollowing types of development may proceed during the nomination/designation process:\na) the types or classes of development certified by the Commission as consistent with the\npurposes of the proposed district (including emergency work); and\nb) developments which have received Development of Regional Impact (DRI) approval within\nthe past seven years, as long as the approval is still valid; and\nc) DRIs referred to the Commission prior to the first published notice of the nomination, if the\ndevelopment is thereafter approved; and\nPage 3\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 146","text_sha256":"6b92e7f8f3d7cc9ebecc4b0f0ed553dc4d621f6e490471c9b2d08d63ebc5c1cc","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-02/0083-01.webp","sha256":"1faea4af9d48cfe8d36c45efdb1b033bfba56ca9fe1cebb741c3ce428f1ca2ef","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":134466}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-02-0084","source":"TBR-0472-02","pdf_page":84,"printed_page":147,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Cape Cod Commission DCPC Guidance Document 12/90 Rev 7/13\nd) developments authorized by a development agreement approved by the Commission and the\nrelevant town(s); and\ne) the construction of single-family homes, unless the Commission specifically finds that they\nmay not proceed; and\nf) developments which have received all necessary permits and only require a Certificate of Use\nand Occupancy from the building inspector; and\ng) developments exempted from Commission review under section 22 of the Act listing\ntransitional exemptions.\nAfter an area is designated by ordinance, development or other land use activities may only\nproceed pursuant to Commission-certified Implementing Regulations, as adopted by the\nmunicipality into its local by-laws and regulations.\nWhat criteria does the Commission consider when voting to forward a\nproposed designation to the Assembly of Delegates?\nThe Commission considers the following three factors in voting to forward a proposed designation\nto the Assembly of Delegates : (1) whether there is a need for special regulation or planning to\nprotect the district from inappropriate development; (2) the proposed district must preserve or\nmaintain a value or resource protected by the Act (see Section 1 of the Act); and (3) whether new\nregulatory and/or planning tools might be available which are likely to be effective in protecting or\notherwise meeting the objectives of the proposed district. Inappropriate development and land use\nactivities are those which are inconsistent with the intent and purposes of the proposed district and\nas such, must be determined on a case by case basis. A determination of appropriateness will be a\npart of the Commission's written decision stating the reasons for forwarding the proposed\ndesignation to the Assembly of Delegates for adoption by ordinance. Commission denial of a\nproposed designation is accompanied by a written explanation of the reasons therefor.\nHow is a DCPC adopted by ordinance?\nIf the Commission votes to propose designation, it then submits the proposed designation to the\nAssembly of Delegates. The Assembly will hold its own public hearing within 60 days of receiving\nthe proposed designation from the Commission. Within the same 60-day period, the Assembly\nmust vote to designate, reject, or return the proposed designation to the Commission for restudy\nand redrafting. If the Assembly votes to return the proposed designation to the Commission, it will\nsubmit to the Commission a written report identifying those elements it finds objectionable,\ntogether with a request for changes. The Commission has 45 days to redraft the proposed\ndesignation and resubmit it to the Assembly. If the Assembly does not accept the proposed district\nas redrafted by the Commission within 60 days, it is deemed denied. When the Assembly votes to\ndesignate a proposed district as an ordinance, the ordinance is forwarded to the County\nCommissioners for their approval pursuant to the Barnstable County Charter. If approved by the\nCounty Commissioners, the district becomes effective upon recording with Barnstable County\nRegistry of Deeds.\nPage 4\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 147","text_sha256":"f210279f91361c56d7ac190a2805ee5a4ec71e2265ef4ab4151aed0f38104e13","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-02/0084-01.webp","sha256":"113390301fdf380291f30899be5b7ec57cb755803239526020da52796f7e3a77","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":144094}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-02-0085","source":"TBR-0472-02","pdf_page":85,"printed_page":148,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Cape Cod Commission DCPC Guidance Document 12/90 Rev 7/13\nWhen may an area rejected for designation be reconsidered?\nNot for two years, unless four-fifths of Commission members present at a meeting vote to\nreconsider the same geographic area for the same concerns.\nWhere do | get more information?\nContact the Cape Cod Commission at 3225 Main Street, Barnstable, MA 02670 at (508) 362-3828.\nFor information regarding the process of nominating DCPCs, contact the Chief Planner or Deputy\nDirector.

Specifically, the\nadoption of form-based zoning and the increasing allowance for four-story\nbuildings—without any updated capacity analysis—has led to a level of\ndevelopment pressure that the Town's systems may no longer be able to\nsupport safely or sustainably.\nCapacity-Based Concerns\nWhen the GIZ was originally adopted in 2006, the Cape Cod Commission\nrequired a square footage cap and an infrastructure capacity analysis to\nensure that projected growth could be safely accommodated. However,\nwhen the GIZ was amended in 2018, no updated analysis of wastewater,\nwater, stormwater, parking, or traffic capacity was required. Since then:\nOnly limited wastewater infrastructure has been added within the GIZ.\nPFAS contamination has emerged as a major threat to local drinking water\nsupply.\nParking and stormwater systems remain unchanged, despite increased\nbuilding scale.\nCape Cod Hospital has expanded, and development pressure has intensified\nalong Route 132 and Route 28.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 230","text_sha256":"cc5d0fcdeb708d0b0a08df6cd5cffe63dfcd6e227ce439283755dc799cdb835c","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-03/0077-01.webp","sha256":"3ea77abc4ffe85159628d3b50e4f612646a6c9bf40f1bb2d8ef3a566e7e1605e","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":85340}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-03-0078","source":"TBR-0472-03","pdf_page":78,"printed_page":231,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Yet under current zoning, 4-story buildings are now permitted with minimal\nreview, even in areas without any updated carrying capacity assessment.\nThis disconnect between allowable form and system capacity represents a\nserious planning oversight and contradicts both the intent of the Cape Cod\nCommission Act and responsible growth management.\nEnvironmental/Wetlands-Based Concerns: 32 Pleasant Hill Lane\nA particularly troubling example is the inclusion of 32 Pleasant Hill Lane\nwithin the GIZ boundary. This parcel is located within a mapped wetland\nresource area and is subject to seasonal flooding, shallow groundwater, and\nlikely 50-100-foot regulatory buffer zones under both state and local\nwetlands laws.\nIt is unclear how this parcel—by any environmental or planning standard—\nwas deemed appropriate for inclusion in a zone designed to streamline\nhigher-density development. Including wetlands lots in the GIZ undermines\nboth the conservation intent of local wetland regulations and the credibility\nof the zoning district itself. It may also put the Town in conflict with the\nWetlands Protection Act and its own Conservation Commission.\nWhy a DCPC Is Needed Now\nADCPC designation would allow for a temporary pause on new development\napprovals within the GIZ and provide time for the Town, in partnership with\nthe Cape Cod Commission, to:\nConduct a comprehensive carrying capacity study for wastewater, water,\ntraffic, and stormwater\nRe-examine the GIZ boundary and remove environmentally constrained\nparcels like 32 Pleasant Hill Lane\nDevelop updated design guidelines and permitting thresholds that reflect\ncurrent infrastructure realities and environmental risks\nWithout this pause and reassessment, the Town risks overcommitting\nlimited infrastructure resources and permitting development in areas that\ncannot legally or ecologically support it.\nThank you for your leadership and consideration of this urgent matter. |\nwould welcome the opportunity to meet and provide maps, environmental\noverlays, and background documentation to support this nomination.\nSincerely,\n[Your Name]\n[Your Signature, if printed]\n|Herschler PRR #2025-0472 231","text_sha256":"6782786d7516692c813df9051cea0640351fffdd5f2efbc5eb768c8dd403e321","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-03/0078-01.webp","sha256":"82fadde46d8e91cb85c571be0985cc45e7ed1a0da21b833a321bd4d1e2f2c76f","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":105564}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-03-0079","source":"TBR-0472-03","pdf_page":79,"printed_page":232,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Resolution to Nominate the Hyannis GIZ as a District of Critical Planning\nConcern (DCPC)\nA RESOLUTION TO NOMINATE A DISTRICT OF CRITICAL PLANNING\nCONCERN (DCPC)\nFOR THE DOWNTOWN HYANNIS GROWTH INCENTIVE ZONE\nWHEREAS, the Cape Cod Commission Act authorizes the designation of\nDistricts of Critical Planning Concern (DCPCs) to protect areas where\nuncontrolled or inadequately planned development may pose a threat to\nregional resources, public infrastructure, or environmental health; and\nWHEREAS, the Downtown Hyannis Growth Incentive Zone (GIZ) was\noriginally adopted in 2006 with a defined square footage cap and\ninfrastructure capacity analysis; and\nWHEREAS, the GIZ was amended and re-designated in 2018 without\nrequiring an updated evaluation of capacity for wastewater, drinking water,\nstormwater management, parking, or roadway circulation; and\nWHEREAS, current zoning within the GIZ permits buildings of up to four\nstories in height, which may exceed the practical or permitted capacity of\nexisting infrastructure, absent any updated carrying capacity analysis or\nphased infrastructure planning; and\nWHEREAS, the Town continues to experience serious challenges related to\nPFAS contamination in its water supply, increasing stormwater runoff, and\naging or undersized wastewater systems, without corresponding investment\nor mitigation; and\nWHEREAS, parcels such as 32 Pleasant Hill Lane, which contain or abut\njurisdictional wetlands, have been included within the GIZ despite clear\nenvironmental constraints, raising questions about boundary accuracy,\nplanning consistency, and regulatory compliance; and\nWHEREAS, the Town seeks to ensure that future development within the Giz\nis sustainable, coordinated, and aligned with both environmental protection\nand infrastructure capacity;\nNOW THEREFORE, be it resolved that the Barnstable Town Council hereby\nnominates the Downtown Hyannis Growth Incentive Zone, including but not\nlimited to the area encompassing Pleasant Hill Lane, as a District of Critical\nPlanning Concern (DCPC) under Section 10 of the Cape Cod Commission\nAct.\nBE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town respectfully requests the Cape\nCod Commission initiate the public hearing process and collaborate with the\nTown to:\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 232","text_sha256":"c4b862ca581497ea98f4237395846be1cb359abd10ca9503d53a921776f075f5","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-03/0079-01.webp","sha256":"0e71f07bb1ff6f10df51d1397775f097f6dbb86a72d33b71bcf04d35923e96e7","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":114920}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-03-0080","source":"TBR-0472-03","pdf_page":80,"printed_page":233,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Evaluate the infrastructure and environmental carrying capacity of the GIZ\nReview and potentially revise GIZ boundaries and zoning criteria\nEnsure that environmental constraints such as wetlands are fully accounted\nfor in all future land use decisions\nAdopted this ___ day of , 2025\nBy vote of the [Barnstable Town Council / Planning Board]\nAttest:\n[Name]\nOn Sat, Jun 28, 2025, 10:43 Bob Schuite === wrote:\nEric,\n| think this is a very interesting suggestion that Chris has made. | need to do\nalittle more homework before | feel comfortable commenting.

Since then:\nOnly limited wastewater infrastructure has been added within the GIZ.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 237","text_sha256":"7a5ec86d49cd2faf12440cef87d2ace4ce478a9e974d8eda86bc0f01e76ca1d5","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-03/0084-01.webp","sha256":"c533b909ef45e6806a2a5a0cd7039de2b7f3cd9307b4628428d59215cd5af45a","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":91378}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-03-0085","source":"TBR-0472-03","pdf_page":85,"printed_page":238,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"PFAS contamination has emerged as a major threat to local drinking water supply.\nParking and stormwater systems remain unchanged, despite increased building scale.\nCape Cod Hospital has expanded, and development pressure has intensified along Route 132 and Route\n28.\nYet under current zoning, 4-story buildings are now permitted with minimal review, even in areas without\nany updated carrying capacity assessment. This disconnect between allowable form and system\ncapacity represents a serious planning oversight and contradicts both the intent of the Cape Cod\nCommission Act and responsible growth management.\nEnvironmental/Wetlands-Based Concerns: 32 Pleasant Hill Lane\nA particularly troubling example is the inclusion of 32 Pleasant Hill Lane within the GIZ boundary. This\nparcel is located within a mapped wetland resource area and is subject to seasonal flooding, shallow\ngroundwater, and likely 50-100-foot regulatory buffer zones under both state and local wetlands laws.\nIt is unclear how this parcel—by any environmental or planning standard—was deemed appropriate for\ninclusion in a zone designed to streamline higher-density development. Including wetlands lots in the\nGIZ undermines both the conservation intent of local wetland regulations and the credibility of the zoning\ndistrict itself. It may also put the Town in conflict with the Wetlands Protection Act and its own\nConservation Commission.\nWhy a DCPC Is Needed Now\nADCPC designation would allow for a temporary pause on new development approvals within the GIZ\nand provide time for the Town, in partnership with the Cape Cod Commission, to:\nConduct a comprehensive carrying capacity study for wastewater, water, traffic, and stormwater\nRe-examine the GIZ boundary and remove environmentally constrained parcels like 32 Pleasant Hill Lane\nDevelop updated design guidelines and permitting thresholds that reflect current infrastructure realities\nand environmental risks\nWithout this pause and reassessment, the Town risks overcommitting limited infrastructure resources\nand permitting development in areas that cannot legally or ecologically support it.\nThank you for your leadership and consideration of this urgent matter. | would welcome the opportunity\nto meet and provide maps, environmental overlays, and background documentation to support this\nnomination.\nSincerely,\n[Your Name]\n[Your Signature, if printed]\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 238","text_sha256":"8a39da1bf43dfa23e2176831253ea07c2a3995dc8b5bc1b680ff0ec1de8f2faf","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-03/0085-01.webp","sha256":"1745cca426731b0c01f20971e8ded855383fd1c824eabb81446142ea360ebd49","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":119330}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-03-0086","source":"TBR-0472-03","pdf_page":86,"printed_page":239,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Resolution to Nominate the Hyannis GIZ as a District of Critical Planning Concern (DCPC)\nA RESOLUTION TO NOMINATE A DISTRICT OF CRITICAL PLANNING CONCERN (DCPC)\nFOR THE DOWNTOWN HYANNIS GROWTH INCENTIVE ZONE\nWHEREAS, the Cape Cod Commission Act authorizes the designation of Districts of Critical Planning\nConcern (DCPCs) to protect areas where uncontrolled or inadequately planned development may pose a\nthreat to regional resources, public infrastructure, or environmental health; and\nWHEREAS, the Downtown Hyannis Growth Incentive Zone (GIZ) was originally adopted in 2006 with a\ndefined square footage cap and infrastructure capacity analysis; and\nWHEREAS, the GIZ was amended and re-designated in 2018 without requiring an updated evaluation of\ncapacity for wastewater, drinking water, stormwater management, parking, or roadway circulation; and\nWHEREAS, current zoning within the GIZ permits buildings of up to four stories in height, which may\nexceed the practical or permitted capacity of existing infrastructure, absent any updated carrying\ncapacity analysis or phased infrastructure planning; and\nWHEREAS, the Town continues to experience serious challenges related to PFAS contamination in its\nwater supply, increasing stormwater runoff, and aging or undersized wastewater systems, without\ncorresponding investment or mitigation; and\nWHEREAS, parcels such as 32 Pleasant Hill Lane, which contain or abut jurisdictional wetlands, have\nbeen included within the GIZ despite clear environmental constraints, raising questions about boundary\naccuracy, planning consistency, and regulatory compliance; and\nWHEREAS, the Town seeks to ensure that future development within the GIZ is sustainable, coordinated,\nand aligned with both environmental protection and infrastructure capacity;\nNOW THEREFORE, be it resolved that the Barnstable Town Council hereby nominates the Downtown\nHyannis Growth Incentive Zone, including but not limited to the area encompassing Pleasant Hill Lane,\nas a District of Critical Planning Concern (DCPC) under Section 10 of the Cape Cod Commission Act.\nBE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town respectfully requests the Cape Cod Commission initiate the\npublic hearing process and collaborate with the Town to:\nEvaluate the infrastructure and environmental carrying capacity of the GIZ\nReview and potentially revise GIZ boundaries and zoning criteria\nEnsure that environmental constraints such as wetlands are fully accounted for in all future land use\ndecisions\nAdopted this ___ day of , 2025\nBy vote of the [Barnstable Town Council / Planning Board]\nAttest:\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 239","text_sha256":"5370d059217a2f1862cd300b9f03ab431a7c3e565a401abfc5452ada031ef495","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-03/0086-01.webp","sha256":"dcec0fd59230c5fa74db3564ce6fecd7c84e0fa5548f01a304367090d45ca030","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":130610}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-03-0087","source":"TBR-0472-03","pdf_page":87,"printed_page":240,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"[Name]\nOn Sat, Jun 28, 2025, 10:43 Bob Schulte <! wrote:\nEric,\n| think this is a very interesting suggestion that Chris has made. | need to do a little more homework\nbefore | feel comfortable commenting.

And, to request that the Conservation Commission meet in person to\ndiscuss the development of this pristine ecosystem in the center of Hyannis with the\ncommunity it serves.\nGrowing up in these woods, catching fireflies and admiring Lady Slippers was an\nenchanting childhood. We were the last generation of children that roamed Hyannis\nfreely. We knew all the trails and where the grape vines and berry bushes were. We\nspent summer days crabbing in the saltmarsh and digging clams. I remember crossing\nthe bouncy planks that made up a bridge over this running creek often. I was always\nafraid I would fall in the water with the snakes, frogs, salamanders, turtles and the other\ncreepy crawlers in there that we would often see. One winter it was frozen, water still\nrunning underneath but solid on top. We slid on the ice back into the woods through the\nsnow-covered forest, till it magically opened up to an enchanted little frozen marshland\nthat I’d never been able to see before.\nI studied Coastal Ecology and Environmental Science and truly understood how special\ngrowing up around the wetlands of Hyannis was. Since moving home, now I see how\nmuch of these wetlands are built around so closely they deny public access, destroy the\nhabitat and are no longer pristine enough to harvest clams and crabs.\nAs a realtor, I know very well that there’s a housing shortage here. But there are many\nother places that are much less sensitive, where the community would welcome\napartments. Since the parcel next to this one, at 130 Hampton Circle is protected, it\nseems most logical that Barnstable permanently acquire this lot for public conservation\nand recreation space as a park and or wildlife refuge.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 348","text_sha256":"c1d8386d199d16c6b84c048b620229ffd6829969f13115331b16518ca9de7d3e","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-05/0020-01.webp","sha256":"e025854dd9927090e1806106351e1d72bb79ef6356fe93cb0ffdc50a1543550e","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":126076}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-05-0021","source":"TBR-0472-05","pdf_page":21,"printed_page":349,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"I watched the conservation commissions meeting where the commission approved this\nproject, and I have some questions:\nWon't the loss of riparian zone cause erosion on the opposite bank and downstream?\nAnd introduce unfiltered runoff water to the delicate ecosystem that feeds Aunt Betty's\nPond and the Stewarts Creek salt marsh all the way to Sea Street Beach?\nWhy is there no Environmental Impact Report or Vernal Pool Survey in this area?\nHas the commission viewed the MASS GIS map for the proposed project and this\nwatershed that goes from Crooked Pond to Sea Street Beach and done a walkthrough of\nthis site?\nWhy was no sewer plan required?

We are a grass roots, non-profit organization and our mission\nis to enhance the quality of life for our community by preserving and protecting the green space, watersheds,\nnatural resources and habitats of the Twin Brooks Golf Course and Stewarts Creek Estuary in Hyannis. Our\nvision for this land is to connect our community by safeguarding this space for recreation and education that\nserves the needs of our residents.\nTherefore, in the interests of the nearby neighborhood, its residents, and watershed, | write in protest to the\nrecent Order of Conditions permitted on 4/29/25 for the 3.34 acre parcel at 32 Pleasant Hill Lane for the\nfollowing reasons:\ne There is inadequate proof that the stream on the property complies with the definition of intermittent.\nThe burden of proof is on the applicant. The stream is reported by abutters to be a perennial stream\nwith extensive photos. This would require the setback to be 200 feet of riverfront protection. According\nto 310 CMR 10:58:\n© The applicant must provide a documented field observation (of the stream in question) by a\ncompetent source and shall be based upon an observation of the stream at least once per day,\nover four days in any consecutive 12-month period, during a non-drought period. Where is this\ndocumentation? Why did Commissioners not require it be presented to themselves and public\ncommentors at the hearing?\nThe size of the watershed has not been proven. An intermittent stream has a watershed size of at least\n% square mile. A perennial stream has a watershed size of more than % square mile. The burden of\nproof is on the applicant. The public demands to see this proof and so should the Commissioners. The\nwatershed must be adequately measured to check compliance with definition of intermittent or\nperennial stream. This site is integral to a watershed that is over one mile long. See MASSGIS map\nbelow showing the length of the watershed and stream.

Not once did the Commissioners state the performance standards or push b\nack on the applicant’s representative during the 4/29/2025 hearing.\ne No sewer plan was presented to ConsCom. This is relevant due to the tight site constrictions and close\nproximity to wetlands. The Conservation Commission did not state that their Order of Conditions was\ncontingent upon an approved sewer construction and hook up plan.\ne No detailed review of the stormwater plan during presentation to ConsCom was conducted. Due to the\nclose proximity to sensitive resource area, the Commissioners should have publicly reviewed this for\ntheir own edification and for that of the abutters at the hearing.\ne Noerosion controls discussed or shown on the plan and no assurances were requested by the\nCommissioners for before, during and after construction until plantings take hold. There were no\nassurances that sediment would not flow into the stream and marsh during construction.\n¢ No wildlife inventory conducted or submitted by qualified biologist.\no Ifthis actually is a perennial stream, then the Presumption says: “Where a proposed activity\ninvolves work within the riverfront area, the issuing authority shall presume that the area is\n=) Twin Brooks\nipisaerviig ond conervhg for he fikure: www.savetwinbrooks.org | info@savetwinbrooks.org 2\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 380","text_sha256":"a2617d7c48685e8d6eace1bc2ad6110cadaf5bec4542072b8879ebd453f34e12","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-05/0052-01.webp","sha256":"b33fb8245c009864a9a0c315c9d74a4f1dd49490bdf1d54e078c417e573d702d","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":142124}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-05-0053","source":"TBR-0472-05","pdf_page":53,"printed_page":381,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"significant to protect the private or public water supply; to protect the groundwater; to\nprovide flood control; to prevent storm damage; to prevent pollution; to protect land\ncontaining shellfish; to protect wildlife habitat; and to protect fisheries.” The Commissioners\nshould be doing their due diligence to ensure all interests of the Act are considered.\no Nosite walk was conducted by Commissioners. This is poor due diligence and shows inclination\nto ‘rubber stamp’ the application. There is extensive abutter photographic evidence showing\nthe potential of vernal pools on the site. This evidence should be admitted to the filing record.\nAt the very least, the Commission should require a third party, certified wetlands biologist be\nhired to conduct a full NHESP survey and inventory. The project should be continued until\nevidence of breeding amphibians can be determined. Breeding amphibians require upland to\ncomplete their breeding cycle. This would include the wooded uplands on 32 Pleasant Lane.\no The area demonstrates evidence of a wetland wildlife corridor extending from Crooked Pond to\nthe north of 32 Pleasant Hill Lane, to Aunt Betty’s Pond, and to the Stewart’s Creek watershed\ninto the ocean.\n© The lot appears to be mixed wetland and forested upland. Applicant should provide detailed\naccount of how many trees will be clear cut. The area has been wildlife habitat for centuries\nwith many dependent species, including breeding birds who rely on the tree canopy. What\nmitigation is being provided for this loss of habitat? The applicant may be required to place a\nconservation restriction on the unbuilt portion of the property to ensure that no other\nencroachments occur in future. Scrub pine and oak habitat are globally rare. The ConsCom\nappeared completely unaware of species or habitat details or significance.\ne There is a 0.64 acre protected open space parcel at 130 Hamden Circle immediately abutting the\nproposed project site at 32 Pleasant Hill Lane. The Commission seemed unaware of this and failed to\nconsider implications. If a construction project does end up being permitted, the ConsCom should\nrequire a conservation restriction on both parcels to be paid for by the project proponent as mitigation.\ne Though irrelevant to the Wetlands Protection Act, on a community level, this project will cause physical\nand mental pain and suffering to residents during construction due to noise, smog, dust, and intense\ncrowding. The footprint of the project is exceptionally large and burdensome to residents who have\nlived in the neighborhood for generations. Commissioners can request the applicant plant screening\nvegetation and other considerations as a courtesy to community impact.\nco. The neighborhood is designated as an Environmental Justice Community according to map and\ncould increase future flooding putting vulnerable populations at risk. Abutter claims to clean\nstorm drain due to lack of municipal management. Culverts should be inspected by Town\nEngineer for adequacy and age. Please see Environmental Justice Population MASS GIS data\nlayer for the proposed project site. EJ Communities suffer negative health and wellness effects\ndisproportionately from loss of green space, clean air, excessive heat, and flooding.

He has an interesting perspective on the April 29th Con\nCom meeting. We have differing views regarding Environmental Justice.\nPlease let me know what updates you expect for the Pleasant Hill documentation found here:\nnstable\nhttps://laserweb.town.barnstable.ma.us/WebLink/Browse.aspx?id=1012902&dbid=0&repo=TownOfBar\nAre there any other documents in process?\n| don't see...\nDocuments pertaining to the \"intermittent\" status of the water flowing through the marsh on Pleasant\nHill. Down Cape referenced letters from both John W. Doane (2003) and Sakolsky-Hoopes (2024) which\nare not in your files. Testimony was offered by abutter Jeff DaLuz at Con Com which contradicts hearsay\nprovided by Mosquito Control and Mr. Ojala. This concern was not addressed before the vote to approve\nthis development.\n| met with Gabrielle Sakolsky-Hoopes today and contrary to statements made by Mr. Ojala, her\ndepartment does not record river flow. And, they do not report on \"dryness.\" They only report if a culvert\nis maintained and whether or not they sprayed the culvert. | asked them for copies of any reports they\nmay have on file which supports the idea of intermittent dryness at the Mitchells Way culvert. | was\nasked to submit a records request which | have now done.\n| don't see a report by Lynne Hamlyn from CapeCodWetslands.com Down Cape submitted a diagram of\nthe area prepared by her organization, but there are no notes regarding methodology/process etc. Mr.\nOjala indicated little change over a previous mapping, but we don't have Lynn's report detailing these\nchanges which appear significant to the untrained eye.\n| don't see any detail on the slope of the area. Shouldn't someone comment on the change in elevation\nand flow from behind the Innovation School (Crooked Pond?) to Stewart's Creek. | believe USGS has\nthese maps. | have reports that this water flows year round by residents of the Town. The USGS map |\nsaw supports this assertion.\n| don't see a detailed discussion of slope changes on the site itself. They appear to be greater than 18\ndegrees (again to the untrained eye). | believe that Con Com should have discussed this possibility and\nconsider whether or not additional mitigation was appropriate.\nAnd, | don't see a habitat study. This area is known to have lady slippers. Isn't a survey required\nfor development of this intensity?\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 406","text_sha256":"66985f5ce1536b033a56c276ba3a84fc2bede820db5e3d8a2477a85a6b9f534f","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-06/0001-01.webp","sha256":"80980b27fbe23c1bbe818fa6bbdd9f01595965304e42fb9f3cff31408003ee85","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":130286}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-06-0002","source":"TBR-0472-06","pdf_page":2,"printed_page":407,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Finally, | don't see any road or sewer plans.

P. (Tom) Lee\nassumed the Chair. Lee holds multiple, overlapping Committee assignments in the Town of Barnstable.\nHe's the Chair of Con Com and the Board of Health, two powerful regulatory committees. Lee does what\nhe's told. If you'd like to see Lee “at work\" firsthand, watch the Conservation Commission hearing for 32\nPleasant Hill on April 29, 2025, at 6:30 PM:\nhttps://streaming85.townofbarnstable.us/CablecastPublicSite/show/11690?site=1\nScroll down the page to the Notices of Intent section for Stuart Bornstein, Trustee —- Gladstone LP. The\nproposal is for a 40-unit multifamily housing development with four affordable units, to be connected to\nthe Town Sewer, with associated parking and drainage at 32 Pleasant Hill Lane, Hyannis, as shown on\nAssessor’s Map 308 Parcel 020. (SE3-6270). Tom Lee should have been honorably retired years ago.\nThe applicant was represented by Daniel Ojala, P.E., of Down Cape Engineering.\nOjala claimed that the riverbed behind 32 Pleasant Hill Lane was dry, based on field reports from the\nMosquito Control Board—which no one present had actually seen (I'll check with thw Town on Tuesday\nand get copies of these reports).\nMultiple Commissioners commented that the design was too tight, but Ojala simply fast-talked\nthe room. He eventually conceded five feet and offered to amend the plans after they were approved.\nThen came public comment. Lisa and Jeff DaLuz spoke, joined by Betty Ludtke and Charlie Bloom. No\none on the Commission seemed to care. The by-right plans were approved without further thought.\n| believe we can challenge this approval based on the need for wider setbacks and the absurdity of\naccepting unverified field reports from the Mosquito Control Board.\n| told Ken Altsman from the Ad Hoc Committee on Zoning that Lee accepted the Mosquito Control\nBoard’s word over that of the abutters—and he almost fell on the floor laughing.\nThe question was raised in conversation: was the shoddy treatment afforded the DaLuz family simply an\nenvironmental issue, or does it rise to the level of an environmental justice issue? And was the DaLuz\nfamily denied due process?\nAn environmental issue is any problem related to the natural environment, such as improper\ndevelopment in wetlands, poor stormwater management, or habitat destruction. An environmental\njustice issue involves the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people—regardless of race,\ncolor, national origin, or income—in environmental decision-making. It arises when marginalized\ncommunities are disproportionately affected or excluded.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 417","text_sha256":"4a141c1775f4eb88f6de4a1c2eb99024245ee672c690cf4f9086db228c5771f8","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-06/0012-01.webp","sha256":"798bc43679b80e2a42681a62c2a35bb7b1adf03eb4227f3b9c2087dc85b620d1","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":135572}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-06-0013","source":"TBR-0472-06","pdf_page":13,"printed_page":418,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"If the DaLuz family were ignored, dismissed, or treated unfairly in a process where others were given\nmore weight, this might qualify as an environmental justice issue—not just an environmental one.\nFurthermore, if the DaLuz family was dismissed without legitimate consideration of their concerns, or\nsaw public input minimized in a rushed or perfunctory way,\nthen yes, their due process may have been denied under procedural fairness standards.

Ells, Town Manager\nBarnstable Town Council\nCFAC recently completed a brief review of tax-exempt properties in the Town of\nBarnstable. This review was done as a follow-up to a study completed in 2007\nwhere consideration was given to a PILOT program (Payment in Lieu of\nTaxes). That program was never launched, but we thought you might be\ninterested in seeing some of the data we reviewed. If you decide in the future\nthat the town should look for additional sources of revenue, perhaps this data\nwill help inform your decision as to whether or not to continue with some form\nof a PILOT program.\nThe total number of tax-exempt properties is about 1,700. When the list is\nfiltered to remove all government entities, the list is reduced to 286 properties, or\n17% of total number of tax-exempt properties.\nThe complete list of 1,700 properties has a total assessed value of $1.23B, and\nthe filtered list is assessed at $320M, or 26% of total assessed value.\nWe hope you find the information contained within beneficial to your\nunderstanding of tax-exempt property in the town, and as always, we are\navailable for further inquiry or study.\nComprehensive Financial Advisory Committee (CFAC) Page 1\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 439","text_sha256":"b2600618d65dcfec7cdc876329ee68cee63fdd91b800aa65d03f5fbc3d1be1ee","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-06/0034-01.webp","sha256":"8bc515ab85f21e5550e502ff3a2e83b9a6557d560e45208d4e524b36a1d8acc0","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":89244}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-06-0035","source":"TBR-0472-06","pdf_page":35,"printed_page":440,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"The town’s tax-exempt property portfolio consists of 1,701 parcels totaling over $1.23 billion in\nassessed value.

It has since scaled considerably. Mr. Soares nolonger resides at 34 Old Town. Today, he is\noperating a commercial business in an unlicensed rental in a town where he is no longer a resident.\nAccording to Mr. Soares he has the Building Commissioner's permission to operate at this location. Ina\nrecent conversation with Mr. Soares he told me that he had recently met with Mr. Florence and that he\nwas, \"All set.\"\nIn effect, Mr. Soares believes that the Building Commissioner has given him a defacto special permit to\noperate a construction yard without the approval of the Planning Board as required by our bylaws.\nThis isn’t negligence. Or, indifference. If true, it appears that Brian Florence has exceeded his authority\nas Building Commissioner.

Then!\ndecided you are new to your roles and | really wanted to send a couple of solution oriented suggestions.\nFirst, why am | writing now? At the last LCP meeting, Wendy Northcross recused herself from the\nhousing section of the LCP. This was years late. Years ago, she chose not to disclose her financial\ninterests that lead to her recusal from housing. This was years after ethics training due to her service on\nthe affordable housing trust fund. This was after years of her conversations about housing and STRs in\npublic and in private with other LCP members and staff. This was after issuing a recommendation that\nthe town extend a tax exemption to real estate investors like herself.\n| write because this is the sixth - 6th! - public official who has stepped aside, or off a board or committee\naltogether, but only after | raised the financial interest in STRs.\nHow many conflicts on other issues go unnoticed?\nHere are a few suggestions. Further below, | share more of my own experiences that emphasize the need\nfor changes.\nThe Application Form\nThe volunteer application form should:\n1) require disclosure of all financial interests that have any connection to the committee or board's\njurisdiction\n2) require the applicant to agree to provide such disclosure on a rolling basis during the term of service\n(this is necessary given how some people serve for years on end - Wendy on the Trust Fund Board is an\nexample of that.)\n3) require a signature acknowledging that full disclosure was made and commitment to disclose on a\nrolling basis\n4) a requirement, or at the very least, acknowledgment, that people will be expected to step off a board\nor committee if relevant information comes to light that was not disclosed.\nNumber 4 or some version of it is to avoid staff doing one of three things that it does:\n1) downplaying the problem when it arises (i.e., Costello's continuing participation after his recusal that\nothers forced was called a \"procedural irregularity\" by legal. This did a good job of messaging to other\npublic officials that the town attorney office will be part of sweeping embarrassing conflicts out of public\nview.)\n2) asserting people who don't disclose and act in their own interests have rights to due process that\noutweighs the public's right to non-conflicted boards\n3) nothing, other than say go file a state ethics complaint. This signals that the town has no standards\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 484","text_sha256":"f311c4f7ad338eba9b8dda6b45357a156fe7960647e7fc4ca296b8dd074be30c","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-06/0079-01.webp","sha256":"8a906fa03e9f7d1d4e4d6b3acf2ab51c0446008a0ae474d801b3d2580175bd7e","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":129136}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-06-0080","source":"TBR-0472-06","pdf_page":80,"printed_page":485,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"despite its own ethics code. And, the world knows state ethics complaints will take longer than the\nmatter the conflicted person is working on.\nA process to enable the Appointments Committee to receive vetted applicants so that the\nCommittee interviews eligible candidates on substance.\nDecades ago, | worked in a Governor's legal office. In the office next door was the Appointments person.\nShe didn't bring any appointments experience to the job. She and the General Counsel just set up a\nroutine vetting process to make sure things were done right. She shuttled continually between her office\nwhere she collected and reviewed applications and disclosures and the General Counsel's office who\nwas a second set of eyes. It was a process and a partnership to be sure Commissioners, judges, and\nmany 100s of appointees to state boards and committees were not conflicted. Making sure financial\ninterests are known is not hard. It just requires intention and a process amongst professional staff.\n| do not believe this job should be left to Councilors on the Appointments Committee as it has been.\nHistory shows it does not work. Councilors are effectively citizen volunteers from a range of\nbackgrounds, and do not generally have the background, time during interviews, or resources to perform\nthis function through a consistent process. The burden should not be put on a Committee to quiz\napplicants in public about disclosures and financial interests during interviews. It's also not fair to do\nthat to applicants during a public interview. If someone has a business interest, they shouldn't even be\nthere.\n| personally have wondered if someone like Andy, who seems to be process-oriented given his\nbackground, could develop a process for an administrative person to gather and review applicants’\nfinancial interests and to work with someone in legal to be sure disclosure information is collected,\ncomplete, signed, and reviewed before applications are turned over to the Appointments Committee?\nHere are the other experiences | have had that support the need for vetting applicants. You may be\nfamiliar so | put them last here in case you want to skip right over them....this is my broken record.\nTwo public officials with STR interests sat on the ZBA that handed me an adverse ruling on my STR land\nuse case. | believe that to be true because when my lawyer brought another case through the process for\nme, | asked him to ask for a conflicts check. | did that because at the first hearing, two members asked\nbizarre questions. For example, one asked if | \"saw money being exchanged\" at the Airbnb next door. He\nsaid if not, it cannot be a commercial operation. My quick search afterwards showed his personal\nfinancial interest in the outcome. Hence, the weird questions to influence the board. At that second\nhearing, those two members got up and left the room without saying | recuse. No one - not them, the\nchair, the town manager or town attorney would answer whether the ZBA issued the first decision while\nconflicted. | believe they both were. | believe everyone knew it and willfully looked away. They both still\nserve. One is now Chair. Both were later named to additional committees. Before that first ZBA hearing,\nmy lawyer from Boston told me to set expectations because Barnstable boards are widely known to be\npacked with business interests.\nLater, one of them (current ZBA chair) pushed a proposal related to housing tax exemptions as a member\nof the Housing Committee. Based on what | knew of his business, | believed it would benefit his\nbusiness. That proposal soon came out as a staff proposal. | wrote to staff to ask whether it was the\nsame proposal that the Housing Committee member pushed. | said please know people are watching all\nthis.

You told me yesterday that you had no intention of appealing my zoning decisions which is the\nonly lawful way to seek redress. You cited costs as your reason for not making an appeal, | can\nappreciate that. You also said at one point that you would take your case to a court of public\nopinion.

Anticipated\nproject scope includes extending the existing sidewalk to the Route 28 shared use path, constructing a shared use path\non the opposite side of Lincoln Road, installing traffic calming measures if/as appropriate (e.g., narrowed vehicle lanes,\nmini-roundabouts if feasible, raised crosswalks and/or speed feedback signs if warranted, etc.), planting street trees\nwhere warranted, and other associated work. The FY26 funding request of $550,000 is for design and permitting, while\nan anticipated $6M construction request is slated for FY28.\nRegarding your private road inquiry, we do not initiate improvements on private roads unless through the Temporary\nRepair to Private Roads Program.

We talked about replanting around the\nStraightway wells. Do you have a tree canopy mitigation planned for Pitchers Way? The work on the\nShared Use Path by the wasterwater plant wasn't especially tree friendly. Are you planning to cut a large\nnumber of trees on Pitcher's Way? And, are there any plans to establish a tree canopy along West Main\nand/or Craigville Beach Road when you make Pedestrian and Bicycle Improvements?\n| know you are busy and | want you to know | appreciate your time.

Does anyone care to comment? The storyline out. Does the toen have a\nposition on this announcement?\nWe've unraveled part of the story of the mystery move planned for Saint\nJoseph’s shelter at 77 Winter St. The Catholic Charities are targeting 460 West\nMain Street for their 50 bed shelter some time this year. This location is a short\nstones throw from several West Main Street institutions including HyWest\nElementary School, Steve and Sue's Par-Tee Freeze, and Barnstable Brewing.\nThe funding for this extravagance comes to us courtesy of the Housing\nAssistance Corporation (HAC) which received $3 million in ARPA funds.\nAs the story goes...Alisa Magnotta, CEO of HAC, money in hand stormed into the\nTown Manager's office in early December, blurted out that SHE is moving the\nshelter to West Main and left. That was it. She spun around on her $450 heels\nand marched out of the office.\nMark Ells was reportedly flabbergasted. He had no idea what to say and called\nBetty Ludtke to inform her of Magnotta's pronouncement. Councilor Ludtke\nsaid that Mr. Ells was genuinely apologetic.\nCounty Commissioner Ron Bergstrom warned in the press when he awarded\nthe funding to Magnotta that permitting may be a challenge due to stigma\nagainst unhoused people. He said he saw this first-hand during his time on the\nBarnstable County Assembly of Delegates.\n“There could be bumps in the road. Not everybody likes services provided to\nthe homeless—they would rather just pretend they don't exist,” he said. But, he\nadded, “besides the financial support through ARPA, you certainly have my\nsupport and the support of the commissioners as you go through the process.”\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 620","text_sha256":"9e7ccc1b9699dca71e86b0656ec9afde3addde8ddd470fb19e4c4c7082a82a42","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-08/0028-01.webp","sha256":"4f8ab565bc4bd01e7ff9f9b554de2ae6345ee14fbaa6f6fd7e760a5acdccaaa0","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":128670}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-08-0029","source":"TBR-0472-08","pdf_page":29,"printed_page":621,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Apparently, it never occured to Bergstrom to pick up the phone and smooth\nthe path for this ambitious project.\nSusan Mazzarella, CEO of Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Fall River\nreportedly said, “This will help fulfill a critical need for an accessible shelter\nthat provides wraparound services including training and education, medical\nrespite and other health services.\nThis regional approach will also achieve a longstanding goal of the Town of\nBarnstable to shift human services programs away from the central Hyannis\nBusiness and visitor district.”\nl asked several Councilors from Barnstable about the statement that this is a\n\"longstanding goal of the Town of Barnstable to shift human services programs\naway from the central Hyannis Business and visitor district.” A Councilor I\nspoke with replied, \"When did we have that meeting.”\nI wrote Janes Kupfer, Director of Planning and Development to ask about the\npermitting.

The $178,000 in\nARPA funding the Town received to plan the redevelopment of the area is a drop in the bucket.\nThe budget for the Marstons Mills playground in the Town of Barnstable Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)\nlists the cost of the playground project at $682,000. And that's short money for a playgrounds these days.\nThe Centerville playground budget was $1 million. Not to be out done, the Osterville playground will cost\nbetween $1.2 to 1.8 million.\nThe high cost for these playgrounds is caused by the bundling water and sewer enhancements with\nmodest playground features. Mother's Park in Centerville will be enlarged to include a pump station for\nthe sewer line which is expected to run up from Craigville Beach. The Marston's Mills school property will\ninclude a pump station, plus water and sewer for a new neighborhood (that no one wants).\nThe cost of these pump stations is extraordinary. The pump station at 725 Main Street received ARPA\nfunding to the tune of $1.9MM from Barnstable County. This represents our entire ARPA allocation from\nthe County. All of these funds have been expended.\nThe entire Route 28 West Sewer Expansion is expected to cost $59 million. The project is \"In design\" and\nconstruction is anticipated to commence in 2025. It was ranked #3 in the 2024 Draft Clean Water Fund\nIntended Use Plan (IUP) and in April 2024, the Town Council approved the $59 Million appropriation to\nfund construction.\n(Please note: In January 2023 the cost of this expansion project was estimated at $35 million. Estimates\nhave almost doubled in two years!)\nThe Route 28 West Sewer Expansion will extend municipal sewer on Route 28 from Phinney’s Lane to\nRoute 149 in Marstons Mills, including Old East Osterville Road, Oldham Road, portions of Osterville-\nWest Barnstable Road, and Bumps River Road. Ultimately, this project acts as the backbone of the\nplan’s westward expansion, allowing for sewer expansion within the Three Bays and Popponesset Bay\nWatersheds.\nAlso included in this project would be the decommissioning of the Marstons Mills Wastewater Treatment\nPlant (MMWWTP) with conveyance of the plants service area back to the Water Pollution Control Facility\n(WPCF). The project will include the construction of over 27,000 LF of new sewers, install five new sewer\npump stations, connect approximately 233 properties to municipal sewer, collect approximately 50,000\ngallons of wastewater per day, and remove approximately 5.0 kg/day of nitrogen.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 643","text_sha256":"8dad69b021f46022737818f19663b5b9615795f61ddedc361e66aeba8188aede","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-08/0051-01.webp","sha256":"f46760e40c3e1f4d121995aeb94ecc3035bb50305bbc35c4a2a1a309f44db832","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":148746}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-08-0052","source":"TBR-0472-08","pdf_page":52,"printed_page":644,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"The problem for the Mills is that sewer lines aren't cheap and saving the environment doesn't pay the\nbills. Growth pays the bills and while we've heard time and time again the the Town does not intend to\nfollow the sewer lines west with multifamily housing, there is nothing in place to stop them. There is no\nzero growth policy in place for the Route 28 West Sewer Expansion. And, the \"playground\" on the old\nschool property is just the beginning of a very expensive snd very unfunded development effort.\nThere is a citizen advisory committee (CFAC) attached to the Comprehensive Wastewater Management\nPlan (CWMP) which has raised the flag that a vote for an OVERRIDE will be needed THIS YEAR to fund the\n2027 CWMP. There is talk that the first bite of the apple will be $150,000,000 with more to follow.\nIt seems to me that the voters need to approve a debt exclusion override for the sewer expansion west on\nRt. 28 before we spend any more time arguing over housing designs for the old Marstons Mills school\nproperty. Without sewer there will be no development on the school property. And, the real cost for\nextending sewer to Marstons Mills is multifamily housing on both sides of Rt. 28 to the Mashpee Mall.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 644","text_sha256":"f4e1f3a458c125cdcff9281b2d5512c7b4c6fa1d4231512c0dfdeeac9cb92a41","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-08/0052-01.webp","sha256":"49157db74067598edadeb87a326a6c07c63112dd258b9deb617f3837e3ae42d0","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":60348}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-08-0053","source":"TBR-0472-08","pdf_page":53,"printed_page":645,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"CFAC Advice\n@)\nPrepare now\nfor requested CIP\ninvestments in\n2026 and beyond\nPrepare Now: Why and How\n¢ FY2026 through FY2028 CIP requests outstrip current\nfunding to pay debt service on the needed new loans.\n* To solve this riddle may require a mixture of:\nOne or more debt exclusions.\nMore revenue from current and new taxes.\nSlowing capital investment into CWMP,\nDPW, or the Schools.\nShifting funds between Town departments.\n* Determining best mix will require:\n¢ Setting priorities.\n¢ Analyzing multiple CIP and Operating Budget\nscenarios for FY2026-28.\n* Comparing scenarios and making trade-offs.\n8 6\nNV,\n645\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472","text_sha256":"e185e1ea7750fb757d81b821a24f7c26065db62e5153777183d015c8b779dc1a","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-08/0053-01.webp","sha256":"7729d08b38669663908cceec614fbaf7bb36dd49a4fe2180b96ab54cf91318a4","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":58452}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-08-0054","source":"TBR-0472-08","pdf_page":54,"printed_page":646,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"CFAC Advice\n()\nPrepare now\nfor requested CIP\ninvestments in\n2026 and beyond\nPrepare Now: If Debt Exclusion(s) in the Mix\n* Should likely have vote in calendar 2025 to fund 2027 CWMP.\n* If exclusion votes are choice to fund DPW and/or School\nthose referendums are likely needed sooner than later.\n* Some key questions to address:\n* What was learned from prior debt exclusion votes?*\nAre exclusions needed for CWMP, DPW and Schools?\nWhat will motivate voting for proposed exclusions?\nWhen should vote(s) be scheduled?\nWhat will be the communications plan?\n* When should it start?\n* Who should be involved from the community?\nIs a‘Plan B’ needed if referendum(s) fails to pass?\n* Since 1999, four of five Barnstable debt exclusions and overrides failed.\n646\nHerschler PRR #2025=0472","text_sha256":"c73b2782b7f26f32eedf81e9cd743b0332e7a461eb9584ea5a7ce6f0a6038427","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-08/0054-01.webp","sha256":"f0ea822cfb00b11a40de616f5b1a71da47e902b89dde2c5113d093f162b79f58","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":70010}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-08-0055","source":"TBR-0472-08","pdf_page":55,"printed_page":647,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Sample Ballot Question\n“Shall the Town of Barnstable of be allowed to exempt from the\nprovisions of proposition two and one-half, so-called, the amounts\nrequired to pay for the principal and related interest on bonds\nissued in an aggregate principal amount of $150,000,000 in order\nto design and construct the expansion of a public sewer system as\noutlined in the Town’s Comprehensive Wastewater Management\nPlan?”\nYes No\nFinancial Policy Review - Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan 7 12/10/202:\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472","text_sha256":"1973e3c37344dd36931fb011cd7f9263500a31fc8e6229b340586e7b83a73ba4","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-08/0055-01.webp","sha256":"6b36ba28aab392283405dba87afe4d5d95aa8f2fd8e9af4f540c6acd67dfd6e1","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":62536}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-08-0056","source":"TBR-0472-08","pdf_page":56,"printed_page":648,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Fair, Marylou\nFrom: heather hunt ==\nSent: Friday, Decem , 2024 7:09 AM\nTo: Mark Ells\nCe: Craig Tamash; Kris Clark; Craig Tamash; Kris Clark\nSubject: Re: Some no or low cost enforcement-related ideas\nThank you Mark.\n| forgot to note one other element that had long troubled me about enforcement, which also goes to\ndisparity/justice and zoning enforcement haves and have nots.\nIt is really expensive to pull up a chair in front of a citizen board/zba populated by unpaid volunteers -\neven if one chooses not to hire a lawyer. | don’t recall the specific fee but | do recall the fee plus the cost\nof newspaper ads to be in the vicinity of $1,000.

Nextdoor has\nalready quieted down. If you get any more complaints, please let me know.\nHere's today's story on Barnstable Unofficial:\n| took a quick drive-up Pitcher's Way yesterday. You can see the neighborhood is undergoing rapid\nchange. There's a lot of equipment and trucks parked on expanded driveways and several lots have been\nfenced and clear-cut. That area has been densely wooded for as long as I've lived in Hyannis. No more...\nMelisa Ludtke, Betty's older sister, mentioned in conversation yesterday that her hometown of\nCambridge, MA passed an ordinance protecting private trees.\nIt’s worth a read...\nFor any Significant Tree removal, a tree removal permit is required and subject to the rules and\nregulations set forth in the City of Cambridge Tree Protection Ordinance (TPO), Title 8, Chapter 8.66, of\nthe City’s Municipal Code. You can apply for a permit online.\nA permit is required for cutting a Significant Tree which is any tree on a Lot that has a diameter of 6 inches\nor greater at 4.5 feet above the ground.\nAn Exceptional Tree is any tree on a Lot that has a diameter of 30 inches or greater. Exceptional Trees are\nvalued at 1.5 times their diameter to reflect the greater ecosystem services these large trees provide to\nthe urban forest. Exceptional Trees often require additional documentation for their tree removal\npermits. Mitigation requirements associated with Large Projects are even more strenuous.\nWe spent a Lot of time this year at Town Hall considering agenda items sponsored by special interests.\nWe approved special tax arrangements for the GIZ and we doled out very generous tax breaks for\ndevelopers. And we gave a lot of lip service to climate change. But we only talked about technological\nsolutions. We've got windmills, charging stations, and the promises of a fancy new microgrid.\nWhat about the trees? Don't they prevent climate change, too. Do you really think that cutting trees and\nbuilding microgrids will save the planet?\nThe Town was awarded a grant through the Greening the Gateway Cities Grant Program to plant 2,400\ntrees in the community’s Environmental Justice areas.

Forgive me if | mention something you have covered in a meeting | have not yet watched.\n| was pleased to hear your discussion a few meetings ago about whether and when to make note of when\nCouncilors are not present. Closely related to that, | want to discuss the importance of properly noting\nwhen officials and employees recuse themselves from meetings. It’s common in Barnstable for\nindividuals to exit meetings without announcing their recusal, leading to confusion for those present or\nwatching later. I’ve experienced this firsthand when members of the ZBA left without explanation when |\nsought to have my rights adjudicated. It happened another time when | sought appointment toa\ncommittee. A Councilor signed off with no word. | didn't know whether she had to use the lady's room or\nrecused. This happens with experienced staff too: throughout the last year, an employee repeatedly just\ndropped away from meetings of a board that gives out public money for housing.\nThis passive approach to recusals seems to be accepted here. | believe that by codifying a simple\ndirective that requires individuals to state their recusal before leaving, we can improve clarity and\naccountability in our meetings.\nIn case you are advised that such a measure is unnecessary since officials and employees are already\nexpected to announce their recusals, | ask you to consider the reality that many do not follow through in\npractice. By emphasizing this protocol in the Town Code, the Committee has the opportunity to reset\nexpectations and foster a more transparent environment.\nRelated to that, I’d like to urge you to note in the Town Code the need to submit Conflict of Interest\nDisclosure Forms before acting in one's official capacity. This is particularly relevant in Barnstable,\nwhere we’ve seen many instances that highlight the need for this.\n\\'ll offer a range of examples - appointed, elected and staff - to illustrate the need since you might be\nadvised this is not necessary or that training could solve the problem. The current LCP Chair, who has\nbeen in her role for several years, has operated a commercial Airbnb in a property she does not reside in\nwhile serving on the LCP Committee that has recommended granting financial incentives for short-term\nrental operators like herself to long-term rent. It’s been reported that she filed a disclosure after she\nworked on the recommendations, and only after concerns were publicly mentioned. That's not a\nsolution. Similarly, a senior staff member disclosed a personal relationship after meeting with that\nindividual about how to access public funds from sources she staffed. A former Town Council President\ndisclosed a professional relationship after making an official appearance before the Appointments\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 669","text_sha256":"e03e3bdb43dc70e87b1dc44eb2568af80688b18435f1ed55924acd2b3b5c8cef","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-08/0077-01.webp","sha256":"5af305e5068f8b215271198049890abf81a0b7cd6eba190a97f84c5fb0b8e94d","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":155652}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-08-0078","source":"TBR-0472-08","pdf_page":78,"printed_page":670,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Committee on behalf of his colleague and casting many votes for him.

This reactive practice undermines the\npurpose of such disclosures.\nTo change this culture, it would be beneficial to incorporate a requirement in the Town Code that\ncompels officials and employees to file disclosures prior to acting in their official capacities, with\nconsequences for noncompliance.\nThank you for considering these views.\nHeather Hunt\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 670","text_sha256":"27c5e9dbcdfc90d7ed4be62f115e3536b47561a8082bed14486576fa4cfb7f6e","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-08/0078-01.webp","sha256":"df35c35c6b88d226df7563c1a19308908a3777df3381cfee1ce77b9228badf5a","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":43498}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-08-0079","source":"TBR-0472-08","pdf_page":79,"printed_page":671,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Fair, Marylou\nFrom: Eric Schwaabh\nSent: Tuesday, October 15, 2024 1:25 PM\nTo: Lovell, Cynthia\nCc: Florence, Brian; Bob Schulte; Seth Etienne; NATALIE PITTENGER\nSubject: Re: Code Compliance Training Module\nThank you for an excellent presentation!\nEric\nOn Tue, Oct 15, 2024, 10:44 Lovell, Cynthia <Cynthia.

She has been on the WeNeedAVacation site since 21. | recall she took the time to\ntake credit for the STR state tax, which has hooked munis on the money, and disincents towns from\nlimiting them. | also know the Chamber on her watch hired an STR consultant when that tax was\npending to calculate how much money each town would get as | saw a note from a Sandwich official\nabout it. If she did not disclose that she had a real estate investment used as an Airbnb it would be one of\na long line of people who do and do not disclose such a financial interest, such that appointing officials\ndo not even know.

If she chooses not to, this\nrequests the Town take appropriate steps to give the Barnstable public confidence that the LCP was\nproduced without bias and with objectivity and impartiality consistent with the Town Ethics Code.\nMake no mistake, this is not a criticism of Chair Northcross’ former and current affiliations and\nactivism with, for, and through the Cape Cod Commission (CCC) as it advances its local zoning\npreferences. | respect the time she has devoted in multiple ways to the CCC’s preferred policies\nand associated advocacy about them to municipalities and the public. This is about impartiality\nand objectivity in local planning.\nI set out the issues below, followed by detail in an Attachment.\nI. Chair Northcross has personal and financial interests in the outcome of the matter.\nChair Northcross owns a home in Barnstable she does not live in according to her ad on\nWeNeedAVacation.com. Rather, she operates the home as a short-term rental.\nThe LCP Committee has recommended that Barnstable provide financial incentives (by extending\nBarnstable’s residential tax exemption) to people who own homes that they do not reside in if they\nrent them year-round, rather than short-term.’ This proposal would shift property tax burdens away\nfrom real estate investors who own homes in Barnstable that they do not live in.\nChair Northcross has a personal financial interest in the outcome of the LCP proposal, a direct and\nforeseeable conflict. She should recuse.\nI. Chair Northcross’ affiliations and direct and substantial work with and through the\nCape Cod Commission (CCC) on regional recommendations for local land use and\nhousing strategies leaves a reasonable person to believe that she favors the CCC’s\npreferences and recommendations and cannot objectively assess Barnstable\ncitizens’ preferences for their local plan.\nThe state and local ethics codes give residents the right to, and an expectation of, public body\nmembers that will be impartial, objective and not show favoritism or bias as they conduct public\n‘The Town should ensure that no LCP Committee member has such conflicts, as well as boards that act on\nthe Housing Production Plan. | sat in front of a current LCP Committee member who ruled on an STR matter\nbefore the Zoning Board of Appeals, when, to the best of my knowledge he had an investor-run STR.

In Barnstable, land use decisions on a local level are\nreviewed for consistency with our adopted plans and policies which reflect the Views of our residents.

The fact that this strategy would require special\nlegislation to deviate from state practice demonstrates the overreach of this proposal.\n‘The Council further recognizes that local zoning is an important strategy to address local housing needs; we similarly\nseek to emphasize the primary role of municipalities in establishing tand use policies within our own boundaries.\nElected and appointed officials at the local government level are best suited to listen to and understand the needs and.\ndesires of the communities they represent and serve. ‘These positions, and the plans and policies that reflect them,\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472\nKris Clark should continue to control; regional designations or land use policies may inform loca! decision making, but should not\neae drive it or supersede it,\nPaula Schnepp\nPrecinct 12 We look forward to continuing to be actively involved with creating housing solutions in our community in the Future\nand continuing dialogue with the Commissign on effectuating appropriate solutions.\nSincerely,\nis Felicia R.

IMHO we are at full saturation.\nIt really boils down to a policy discussion. If STRs took 250 - 400 family homes in Hyannis off the market\nfor long term renters, does the town wish to addresses this concern?\nWe can entice owners back into the year round market with incentives and/or purse a deed restriction\nprogram, if the loss of 250 homes to speculators is of concern.\n| don't think a blanket ceiling of 1500 STRs town wide will be effect. Other successful initiatives have\nlimited STRs by neighborhood. This appears to be the preferred approach.\nOverall, illegal rooming houses, excess vehicles and equipment and home occupations run wild seems\nto be the bigger challenge.\n| attached files on two problem properties in my neighborhood which have never been successfully\nresolved despite considerable effort on everyone's part. Take a look at these and let me know if you are\ninterested in considering a stronger compliance program based on these lessons learned\n| do think we can reclaim our neighborhoods from unwanted commercial activities.\nLet me know if you like to get together.

That said, | feel we\nare at about year 2 or 3 in that endeavor. I’ve included snapshot data from the last 5 years to help with context;\nhowever, we need to remember that the attached 2019 and 2020 visuals were prior to active\nmonitoring/enforcement and were really our first glimpse into how many STRs were potentially out there(worth\nnoting is this data is unverified raw data provided to us by the vendor that we eventually contracted with to\nprovide monitoring services...while is helps add context | would caution to use for trend analysis as aside from\nbeing unverified raw data it is also and apples-to-oranges comparison since the push towards rolling STRs into\nour rental registration program was not in effect). As you'll see the numbers are significant, but likely somewhat\nmisleading as anyone could advertise on any platform without registration/inspection/etc....Therefore, | would\noffer that it is logical we would see a significant drop in numbers form 2019/2020 to 2021 and beyond as a\nsignificant number of people would no longer advertise on these platforms to just “see what they could get” as\nthey now needed to register with the DOR and TOB as well as become subject to all that goes along with\nregistration (inspections and the like.)\nFor trend analysis I would start with the below 2021-2023 verified numbers. | would not draw too many\nconclusions from the jump from 598 to 751 between 2021 and 2022 because the 598 is likely artificially low as\nthat is the period of time where we were really in the heat of bringing these units into compliance with our rental\nregistration program.

I'll be going out of town for a few days and haven't finished\nmy very critical review. Here are a few of the notations in that report that, | think, bear\nreally close scrutiny.\nFor starters, their “stakeholders” did NOT include tax paying residents of Cape Cod.\nTo me, that is a red flag right there. Why would they go out of their way to avoid\nresidents of Cape Cod ??\nOn Page 5, “The region's rural and suburban development patterns have resulted in\nlittle housing diversity, limited infrastructure, and a car-dependent society\nthat has created and exacerbated Cape Cod’s most critical challenges. The\ncurrent abundance of single-family homes and the policies in place that\nencourage them do not meet the region’s needs”\nMy comments: A car-dependent society has created and exacerbated Cape’s most\ncritical challenges. ??? How is this supported ?? What documentation was used to\ncreate this bizarre statement ?? Further down on page 5 they state that the pandemic\nexacerbated several key challenges impacting the ability of people to access housing.\nWhich is it ?? Cars or the pandemic ?? Who says the policies in place that encourage\nthem do not meet the region’s needs....... What ARE the region’s needs ?? A car-\ndependent society exists on Cape Cod just as it does everywhere else in this country\n!!!

Let's look at those.\n1. Surveys\nThe Planning Department's surveys have no controls to fairly measure resident\nviews: live anywhere, vote often, that kind of thing. In every survey, it's easy to find\nvarious business and paid interest representatives pushing Planning Department\nsurveys out to members on social media. Why wouldn't they?\nRecords show a week before the survey was to close, less than 300 residents\nresponded. Assuming the response rate doubled or tripled in the final days, it’s ~1% -\n2% of the public. This is the same as the form-based codes “pretty picture visual\nimage” survey”, where ~1% of Hyannis or .003% of Barnstable participated and was\nlater declared terrific public input.\nIn a recent housing survey (for the LCP, which is mirroring the HPP and has the\nsame consultant), the Planning Department published the names of residents with\ntheir answers. The American Association for Public Opinion Research counts that as\none of four “condemned survey practices.” Moreover, the Planning Department didn’t\ntell people it was going to do that highly unusual, condemned thing.\nThe survey questions are often guided to an end. Example: The Planning\nDepartment's STR survey omitted any question about the key issue of people who\nnever live here but buy and commoditize our homes as STRs v. Cape families who\nlive here and rent for some period time in the summer. We saw that omission in a\ndraft and asked for such questions to be included. They were not.\n2. Focus Groups\nThe Planning Department list of who it invited to Community Focus Groups was not\nthe actual public. (It said it didn’t have the list of who actually participated — that was\nin the records of a consultant, which is a separate problem discussed below.) Many\nwere people whose job it is to listen to the public and reflect public sentiment in the\nHPP and who had roles that gave them influence in the HPP outside of the\nCommunity Focus Groups.\no The vast majority were as follows: Ells, Cylburn, Norcross, Shufelt, the Town\nCouncil, multiple people from HAC (even more piled into one Focus Group),\nthe Housing Committee, people from county government, people from\nHabitat, Rob Brennan/CapeBuilt, Telman/850 Main developer, Jake\nDewey/developer, BID founder Young, someone from Yarmouth government.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 819","text_sha256":"1e3b84937a4d68c1b02bc4b7b2e558ba5af6f2a17303668bb871d59c77be2642","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-10/0022-01.webp","sha256":"fd266aa340229ad5ed8a8d5712567ebe8707fe532d67c9691f40f6b5b802507a","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":119550}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-10-0023","source":"TBR-0472-10","pdf_page":23,"printed_page":820,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"* The Planning Department told the Housing Committee (at a meeting with little to no\npublic attendance) that it was putting together Focus Groups.

(Records showed\nthe Planning Department and consultant later referring to the B List, so the answer\nto me was also untrue.) | then let other citizens know to ask to get in a Focus\nGroup.\n\"The Planning Department selects people who have other influence opportunities,\npeople whose job it is to listen to the public, people with financial interests in\noutcomes, people who are paid to influence outcomes by their employer and then\nblends those with a few members of the public and calls it “Community Input.” All\ninterests need to be heard, but they should not be blended with residents’ views.\nThe way this is run, there is no uninfected measure of resident views.\n3. 1:1 Interviews\n* The Planning Department said some Focus Group participants would be\ninterviewed 1:1 afterwards. It told me that the consultant would select people for this\nincremental input and that would depend on “affiliations” and “ideas.”\n= Records show the Planning Department gave the consultant a list for 1:1 interviews.\nIt included: Matt Levesque, a HAC employee, a HAC Board member, CCAIOR CEO\nCastle, Cape Chamber CEO Niedzwicki, Cape Cod Young Professionals, Habitat for\nHumanity, Shufelt, Carey (the former Housing Committee chair after he left),\npossibly someone from Yarmouth interested in homesharing. The consultant then\nasked for others, particularly on homelessness, and the Planning Department\nswapped some names. This is not a measure of the actual public.\n4. HPP “Community Forums”\n* One sign in sheet showed ~17 people. Some were town employees and officials.\n5. Scrubbing “Public Facing” Documents for Vagueness\n* Records from 2022 show the Planning Department scrubbing “Goals and\nStrategies” — “Elizabeth has a lot of concern with the wording of several of the Goals\nand Strategies being public facing in their current format”. Another document\nreferenced sensitivity in several villages about zoning changes. The actual goals\nand strategies were not a concern — just the wording in documents the public would\nsee. Staff then produced redlines which it gave to the consultant. When | asked for\nthose, the town told me it needed to get those from the consultant.\n* Same thing, another year. The Planning Department changed the January 2023\nHPP draft (never made public) when it issued the May 2024 HPP plan. It overhauled\nthe section about changing zoning in specific villages to remove which villages, and\nto delete the reference to changing single-family zoning % mile around those\nvillages. Staff did not issue a redline; we created one to see what was changed. It\naccomplishes the Planning Department's goal of being vague to avoid public\nreaction while maintaining meaning.

This is counter\nto the Barnstable LCP survey that showed the #1 kind of housing Barnstable\nresidents want more of is single family homes.\nIt says the CCC reviewed the Draft with various town staff and refined its\nrecommendations based on that feedback. It would be very helpful to the public\nseeking to ask Barnstable staff to share with the public the feedback it provided to the\nCCC on the Draft. It would also be helpful to know the source of its feedback. Was it\nthe Town Council, which has not discussed this in a noticed agenda item? The Town\nManager?

They are a constructive\nmeans to make progress, for the Council's further consideration, on important issues\nand in a way that brings public awareness and visibility to them, with comparable\nawareness and access for all.\nThe current proposal seeks to do public business in the way the Town Code intends:\ndefined committee scopes, communicated to the Council and the public to enable\nparticipation by all at the same time and in the same way, with a \"complete by\" date\nfor the work, followed by Council deliberation of any recommendations.\nThe last several ad hoc subcommittees departed from this required process in nearly\nall ways. It gave business interests earlier and more significant input opportunities\nthan residents. This is not a point of view: it is evidenced by facts recorded in minutes\nand on video.\nGiven some misstatements of facts about them by Councilor Levesque at the last\nmeeting (perhaps attributable to the passage of time as this went on for years), | set\nforward facts from Town records and videos below. The reason for sharing this\ncommittee history is to illustrate the contrast in the way the Town Council had done\nbusiness and the way it is now proposing to do business. The way it had done\nbusiness caused hundreds of residents to petition for a Resident Zoning Advisory\nCommittee to level the uneven playing field between business interests and residents\nthat became institutionalized.

The Council is, as you know well, effectively a volunteer position; each\nof you should not have to continuously review the Code, and websites, and notices\nand everything else to confirm business is done properly. That didn't happen. Citizen\ninquiries about this were ignored.\nThe best substantive outcomes result from diverse points of view, which requires\ncomparable access and opportunity for all. The Town Code sets out processes to\nachieve that end, and to my read, the proposed committees are structured in\nconformance.\nFurther, it would be great to hear you all discuss possible zoning and housing\napproaches that may emerge from such committee(s) work - a move beyond reacting\nto proposals for waivers and the like, and beyond the .76 of a minute each Councilor\nwas given on housing at the last Strategic Planning event (90 minutes for 13\nCouncilors to talk about 9 major issues...), with follow-up in emails that no one saw.\nThank you for taking the time to read this.\nThe Economic Development Task Force\n« No scope, as required, to the Council by its creator, former President\nSteinhilber.\n« Instead, the former Councilor Steinhilber announced the scope to the Task\nForce at its first meeting.\n« No Council vote to create it.\n« No sunset date as required.\n« No web presence at all, unlike all other public bodies.\nThe Town could not produce appointment records when asked years later;\nminutes the public asked for years later show members self-selecting.\n+ Some folks who spoke at the last Council meeting were on this Committee.

It worked on that for ~18 months before\nElizabeth Jenkins announced to the Council that the public process on that\nproposal would begin. The public process was called \"terrific\". By way of\npublic process, only 1% of Hyannis residents responded to a Town survey on\nform based zoning. At forums, ~10 and ~30 people showed up, including\ntown staff and officials. Public questions and concerns about the parking\ncomponent proposal were answered with \"hopes\" about shared parking.

Illustrative of the\nlack of defined scope was, at its last meeting in 2021, a solicitation of ideas\nabout what zoning matters to take up next.\n+ When asked, Councilor Steinhilber called it an extra \"rung in the ladder\" of\npublic process. In fact, outside of STRs, only a dozen people showed up\nbetween 2017 - 2021. No surprise. This was not a place the Council told the\npublic would become the place zoning happened.\n« See an exchange | had with Steinhilber here at minute 52 where he talked\naround the lack of conformance to required processes.

Citizens looked weekly for activity; the Subcommittee presented to the\npublic as dormant. The Subcommittee chair welcomed a representative of\nthe builders, realtors, chamber and HAC to present a proposed ordinance\nand interact with the committee over the course of a meeting (no 3 minute\nlimit like that given to residents). Indeed, when residents and Civic\nAssociations presented a model ordinance on a prior matter in public, the\nsame leaders ridiculed them for doing so on the public record. The lack of\npublic presence during this time period caused former Councilor Culllum and\nCouncilor Schnepp to chuckle over the lack of public comment, and\nCouncilor Levesque to thank the one member of the public for showing up.\n(Someone sent me that audio clip from Channel 18 which | can send along).\nThat was a public official/developer who had expressed interest in multi-\nfamily by right on the public record. Town staff replied to that by asking if the\nADU proposal as presented (which departed from ADU rules adopted by\nnearly all Cape towns...) got him close enough. He said it depended on\nwhether it stayed in the form as the builder/realtors/chamber/hac proposed.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 833","text_sha256":"fa4330f0542fcaf2210b23a0612fb2b98fb86cd80267a1ce3d61a99fb4583739","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-10/0036-01.webp","sha256":"c3dcac8e9a45a0297bdb20560bc018f622f9ad674999a7a9a06c7d9b4845c2f2","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":157234}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-10-0037","source":"TBR-0472-10","pdf_page":37,"printed_page":834,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Somehow, he knew to show up.

SPECIFICITY TO GUARD AGAINST TOWN COUNCIL LEADERSHIP OVERREACH\nWe’ve all seen the wide variation in how Town Council Presidents and Vice Presidents\napproach their roles. Indeed, a prior President announced publicly he no longer had\ngainful employment during the workdays so that he could perform a function that is not by\ndesign an actual job, as is a full-time Mayor, for example. The duties assigned to such\nleaders are set out in the governing documents or can be delegated to them by the Council.\nYet, some assume more authority than the governing documents or their peers on the\nCouncil give them in fact.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 847","text_sha256":"468ebd2d4d7d94d8edf15d5e0718b7449a264c0a27149b9d81816a2386bfe3ea","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-10/0050-01.webp","sha256":"506806487ca29920afa10707bd2d726a599711b1e650f98ccc8f64ae2382c017","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":95618}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-10-0051","source":"TBR-0472-10","pdf_page":51,"printed_page":848,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"When that happens and it affects citizens, citizens have little to no recourse but to wait\nuntil the next election, even when actions those leaders take run counter to citizen rights in\nthe Charter, Code or Town Council Rules. The examples are abundant. To make the\nsuggestion for changes to protect against such overreach concrete, | offer just two\nexamples of assumed authority that came up in recorded public meetings.\nExample No. 1. It has been reported that it became practice for prior Town Council\nleaders to position themselves as gatekeepers of citizen communications sent to all\nelected Councilors via a generic council or town staff email address. No provision\nauthorizes Town Council leadership to gatekeep citizen communications the Town\nCouncil, and there is no record of the Council assigning that job to leaders. As such,\nleaders have no right to assume that role.\nExample No. 2. A Housing Committee member expressed that he wanted to discuss\nshort-term rentals’ impact on housing stock and affordability. Public commenters\nsupported that. At a public meeting, town staff told the Committee it would check with\nthe Town Council on whether the Council wanted the Housing Committee to discuss\nthat issue. Staff came back at a next meeting and reported that the Town Council did\nnot want the Housing Committee to discuss short-term rentals. There had been\nabsolutely no public Council discussion about the issue, no noticed agenda item, and\nthus, no “Town Council” direction. One of three things could have occurred: 1) Town\nCouncil discussion happened without notice, in violation of open meeting laws, which\nother Councilors indicated did not happen) 2) Staff made that report up from whole\ncloth and reported it publicly, which is highly doubtful or, 3) Council leadership\nassumed authority it did not have, offered a personal point of view, and spoke as if on\nbehalf of the full Council that was not consulted on a substantive matter.\n@ To prevent such prior Town Council leadership overreach, the Code should:\n1) list with specificity the authorities and duties of Town Council\nleadership and make clear that any other authority or duty cannot be\nassumed without express consent recorded in minutes following\nCouncil discussion at a noticed Council meeting, and,\n2) provide that the Town Council will make a public list each year of any\nother duties the Council decided to assign to leadership for public\nknowledge. (There may be other ways to prevent such overstepping,\nbut whatever the means it should be visible to the public.)\n2.

Some Town\nCouncil Presidents have assumed authority to tell other Town Councilors that none are\npermitted in room when the agenda is discussed.\nAccess to Council agenda setting should not turn on whether a President has an insecure\nleadership style that causes them to prefer closed agenda-setting processes contrary to\nthe Code’s intention. As the Code allows residents to advance items for Council action, it\nis really nonsensical for a President to claim authority to deny all our elected Councilors\nthat same right, or to keep all of our Councilors in the dark about the agenda until it is\npublished for the public. The problem to be solved here is that everyone’s Councilors\nshould have the rights they are due, not only those rights an insecure leader pretends are\nhis or hers to hand out.\n@ Section 401-20 should remain on the books, and that the Council should let\nresidents know it and live to it.\n@ Relatedly, the Code should be modified to ensure Town Council Presidents\ndo not assume authority to ban elected Councilors from agenda-setting\ndiscussions or to keep them from identifying agenda items for action. As the\nCode allows residents to advance agenda items for Council action, itis an\nabuse of authority to pretend to be able to keep Councilors from doing the\nsame.\n3. EFFICIENT TOWN COUNCIL PRACTICES THAT ENCOURAGE PUBLIC ATTENTION\nThis year, we saw the Town Council President recommend new practices that make Town\nCouncil meetings more efficient. This facilitates public observation and engagement and\nwas much appreciated. This includes:\ne Living by the existing requirement in the Code that Town Manager Reports are to\nbe in writing, rather than take up one to two hours of Town Council meetings\nbefore the Town Council commenced its business, which is the point of Council\nmeetings and what the public tunes in to hear.\n¢ Issue agendas on the Friday before the Thursday Town Council meeting, rather\nthan the past leadership practice of waiting to give the public the least amount\nof notice required by law and posting agendas 48 hours before the Thursday\nmeetings.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 849","text_sha256":"66ff910422902a033d46a41b9473b66a757870f8318965a19051b28fbc2fd165","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-10/0052-01.webp","sha256":"fcf1144eabbb1a0c1c0c4c234289422f2a7fc30bc8bfa20dbf7a0ecaf61db496","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":119662}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-10-0053","source":"TBR-0472-10","pdf_page":53,"printed_page":850,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"e Running certain first reads on a consent agenda to shorten meetings, which\nencourages the public to stay tuned in, provided, however, that if any Councilor\nwishes to discuss any item, that it can be pulled off of the consent agenda.\nThe Code or Town Council Rules should be modified to codify these best practices as\nfollows:\ne@ Announce and live by the requirement that Town Manager Reports are to be\nprovided in writing unless the subject matter precludes written\ncommunications.

TOWN COUNCIL AD HOC SUBCOMMITTEES\nThe problems with prior Ad Hoc Subcommittees (Economic Development Task Force and\nthe Regulatory and Zoning Subcommittee, for example) are well known and do not need to\nbe recited here. Suffice it to say, prior Town Council leadership abused authority to create\nAd Hoc Subcommittees by not identifying specific scopes and set timeframes and instead\nletting them go on and on for years, wandering from subject to subject, with no end date.\nThis adversely affects the public’s right to know how and what public business would be\nconducted, by whom, when and where. The public never would have assumed for instance\nthat one ad hoc committee populated only by Hyannis business owners would be asked by\nstaff to work on a Hyannis zoning proposal before the staff announced the beginning of the\npublic process, and to work on town-wide housing, with a housing subcommittee and an\ninclusionary housing subcommittee without public notice and with the express support of\ntown staff.\nThe current Town Council leadership has addressed Ad Hoc Subcommittees properly. How\nTown Council Ad Hoc Subcommittees run should always conform to the rules, and not turn\non the whims of leaders who are dismissive of rules.\nIncreasing the need for a Town Code adjustment to prevent this abuse is that when citizens\nrepeatedly raised concerns about the abuse of prior ad hoc committees to the Council\nleadership that willfully violated the rules, those leaders ignored the concerns or overtly\ndismissed them as invalid. When citizens then raised the same issues to the Town Manager\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 850","text_sha256":"47a6d8ec100b1d2e8034b66715fee828ab51be195c6f066df09aac7172353fe7","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-10/0053-01.webp","sha256":"be9ff815e1cfd6944411c0ed6a7a3f0f7954f19fbecb010376f0c23e94187221","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":123428}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-10-0054","source":"TBR-0472-10","pdf_page":54,"printed_page":851,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"and Town Attorney, they know the Code but do nothing to ensure the town works according\nto it.

A citizen ombudsman has been proposed\nin the past and may be worth considering.\n5. THE CALL OF SPECIAL MEETINGS\nThe Town Council Rules, revised in 2019, included a provision about the number of\nCouncilors required to call a special meeting - five. This increased the number over what is\nrequired by Sec. 220-2.\n@ The Town Council Rules should be amended to reflect Section § 220-\n2Special meetings. “Special meetings of the Town Council may be held on\nthe call of the President of the Town Council, or on the call of any four or\nmore members, by written notice.”\n6. INTEGRITY OF PUBLIC RECORDS\nThe integrity of public records rests on record retention. Barnstable’s current record\nretention system, and thus public records production, lacks integrity.\nIn brief, in 2023, a records request showed that a department director’s planning and\nzoning-related public records between herself and a property owner on Hyannis Main\nStreet that was then the subject of a zoning change proposal, were accessed by an\nunidentified “non-town employee” and destroyed.\nIt took repeated requests (ultimately with a state office on the email) for clarification of\nvague, passive voice-styled answers from the Town Attorney to get the facts: requested\npublic records about planning and zoning didn’t exist because someone who does not work\nfor the town accessed a publicly funded communication device and destroyed a public\nemployee’s planning and zoning records.\n| called the State Archive office about this to learn about record retention. The office\nrepresentative encouraged a complaint.

Taxpayers should not bear that burden to get what they are\nentitled to by state law. In the end, the Town’s systems allowed public records to be\ndestroyed with no recourse for the public that was denied access.\nThe Code should not have to direct employees to comply with the laws they are\nresponsible for executing but facts show this is necessary in connection with record\nretention.\nThe need for the Code to more specifically require compliance is that Town Council and\nregulatory body members have long been allowed to create public records without any\nback-up. The Town Attorney’s office has been aware of this for years and with no change\nproposed until recently, telling the Council backup was the “right thing.” Respectfully,\nretaining records according to the law was the right thing years ago when flagged as a gap.\n@ The Code should provide that Town Hall must back up all public records that\nare subject to record requests at all times.\ne Ifrecords are not provided to citizens because they were not retained\nproperly or they were improperly destroyed, the Code should require the\nTown’s response to citizens to so indicate and not simply imply that there\nare no records responsive to the request.

A\ncitizen ombudsman has been proposed in the past and may be worth\nconsidering.\n7. CITIZEN REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION\nThe Town Code has several long passages about responding to citizen requests for\ninformation at 401-18 and 19. For example, people can write to the Planning Department\nDirector for information or even for release of so-called “public forum” questions and\nanswers - designed for public consumption but withheld - over and over, for weeks on end,\nand ultimately need to appeal to the Town Manager for help getting any response.\n@ The provisions that pretend there is a specific response to citizens process\nshould be struck unless it is real and implemented in practice.\n@ There should be some place citizens are told who to contact when\nemployees ignore requests.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 852","text_sha256":"9b2079cc5554c55df1e96c56526a3f1f9bd6517c4e000f2c2588a647d3a42df8","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-10/0055-01.webp","sha256":"d849cce3f516e5044e6828785e63f9310229d79396abdc428d9ecea66fb6e6ff","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":111360}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-10-0056","source":"TBR-0472-10","pdf_page":56,"printed_page":853,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"8. ZONING ENFORCEMENT RESPONSIVENESS TO CITIZENS\nThe Town of Barnstable's obligations under state law with respect to citizen zoning\nenforcement requests are clear:\n\"If the officer or board charged with enforcement of zoning ordinances or by-laws is\nrequested in writing to enforce such ordinances or by-laws against any person\nallegedly in violation of the same and such officer or board declines to act, he shall\nnotify, in writing, the party requesting such enforcement of any action or refusal to\nact, and the reasons therefor, within fourteen days of receipt of such request.\"\nThe Town has interpreted that to mean it can reply to a taxpayer who asks for zoning\nenforcement that the Town intends to act and then do nothing at all and consider itself to\nhave met its legal obligations.\nFor example, the Building Commissioner stated in one case (mine) that “we intend to act\non your request for enforcement and have begun an investigation into the matter. . . you\nmay feel free to check in . . . after two weeks to inquire as to the status of your request at\nthe number below.” After repeated inquiries over time including to town management, a\nrecord request showed a pattern of willful delay, indicating that the Building Commissioner\nhad no intention to undertake zoning enforcement. The Building Commissioner then took a\nPass on attending a ZBA hearing about the issue. In the end, a Massachusetts court ruled\nthat the Town could not do what it did, and simply say to taxpayers “we intend to get to you\nsomeday” when asked for enforcement — the Town must give taxpayers substantive\nanswers. Residents shouldn't have to pay to get a judge to get the Building Commissioner\nto simply do his obvious job.\n@ The Town Code should make clear what the courts told Barnstable - that it\nmust do the substantive job assigned to it by law and cannot put off or give\ntaxpayers the run around. The Code should give residents clarity about their\nrights and the Building Commissioner’s duties. To be clear, this change in\nthe code would bring clarity residents deserve; it would not create any new\nrights for citizens or impose any new duties on the Building Commissioner. It\nwould simply give residents clear information about their rights and avoid\ngames at taxpayers’ expense.\n9. OCCUPANCY CODE\nThe Town Code limits the number of occupants in a home (§ 59-3Maximum number of\noccupants):\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 853","text_sha256":"f03a5721229a405b9a719c86746c169b6deea374e0b752775cfdb2d7a2ab9313","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-10/0056-01.webp","sha256":"442e06c3e52531628675a4671a0240fedebf0f2e2d28c071cdc8262d5825b7fb","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":114760}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-10-0057","source":"TBR-0472-10","pdf_page":57,"printed_page":854,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"“The maximum number of occupants in a residential dwelling shall be determined\nby the number of bedrooms contained therein.

It shall be a violation of\nthis chapter for any person in excess of that provided herein to occupy any\nresidential dwelling.”\nThis limit has important implications on septic systems that the Town should care about as\na matter of water system and public health. (It would be interesting to see analysis of what\nthe need for sewers would look like if the Town over time cared about people regularly piling\ninto homes with septic systems designed for a limited number of people...). It also matters\nto quality of life in neighborhoods. When one reports the regular and significant\noverstuffing of homes, particularly those used as Airbnbs, including those that advertise\noccupancy well in excess of permitted levels and that in fact rent to occupants well in\nexcess of permitted levels, the Town does nothing to enforce the occupancy code. Reports\nof three families — 3 set of parents and many children piled into a legal two bedroom - or\nmultiple transport mini-busses with dozen+ adults piling into a small home, and the like, is\nroutinely ignored and/or residents are asked to produce evidence of violations. Another\nexample: a parent wrote to me about a call she made to the Health Department to ask\nabout occupancy limits when her son wanted to rent a home for his entire fraternity for a\nlong weekend and the parent was concerned about numbers and safety. The employee\nwho answered the phone told the mom not to worry about occupancy limits or\nenforcement. She said “couches, pull-outs anything is ok” as they “do not enforce” and “no\nworries.”\n@ The Code should be revised to provide the Building Commissioner the rights,\nobligations, and tools needed to enforce the Occupancy Code.\ne@ Absent enforcement, the limits should be struck so as not to pretend to\nhave an occupancy code and to let potential homebuyers in Barnstable have\nnotice that it’s an anything goes Town relative to occupancy. If given that\ninformation, people buying homes as permanent residences could choose\nto buy homes somewhere else that doesn’t allow a dozen people to live in a\ntwo bedroom with a septic system designed for the same.\n10.

The Town Attorney dubbed all that a “procedural irregularity”\nwhen announcing the body’s action had to be redone due to the ethics violations.\nWe also very often see recusals with people just departing rather than saying ‘I recuse’ to\nmake it known that the disappearance is due to a conflict.

This\nperson did not even show up to express that interest or explain his application to sit\non the body that regulated his business. The minutes of this meeting left off the\nformer Town Council President’s appearance and request for this new appointment.\nMoreover, the person did not disclose on his application that he was also in the\ncommercial real estate business and there was, of course, no discussion of that.

We basically have been talking generally about these\nfor several months.\nThe challenge is that the concerns and comments are so numerous\nand detailed that it is a daunting task to summarize them properly and\nmove them through our internal processes for voting and submission\nto you and the town. As our Board is comprised entirely of volunteers, scheduling,\ntravel and professional conflicts do not always allow for timely summaries of complex\nissues. As today is the deadline, we did want you to be aware that we indeed have much to\nsay but just did not have enough time to present it formally to you at this time. We hope to\nsend it to you after our next monthly meeting at the latest.\nWhile not speaking on behalf of the Board, in my personal opinion, it\nis obvious there are tremendous concerns and objections throughout\nthe village for both the CCC and TOB versions of proposed housing approaches,\nchanges to single family zoning, and potential plans for redevelopment of Osterville.\nFor example, in my ten years of service on the OVA, not once has a resident of Osterville ever\ncomplained about single family zoning. The top request in the Town’s own housing survey\nwas for more single-family homes, so the idea that current zoning is “a burden\" is\nludicrous. It is also disappointing when anyone who likes “single-family zoning”\nis painted as anti-housing, when these folks seem to be simply trying\nto preserve the neighborhood character they know and love.\nSingle-family zoning and the appeals process via the Zoning Board\nhas combined with other factors has helped create a desirable\ncommunity where | have lived my whole life. In general, it is hard for\nme to identify any community desire to change that with broad policy\nrevisions. | noted many objections to the easing of checks and balances for\ndevelopers. Those processes are in place so communities are notified about any pending\nchanges to their neighborhoods and can react if needed.\nMy concern is that CCC plans and TOB drafts seem to nearly eliminate the current way of\ndoing things in favor of streamlining the development process into a “free-for-all” as long as it\nresults in more housing for more people. No one in our village appears to be against housing,\nbut rather desires to maintain the current controlled approach which has worked fine for\n2\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 981","text_sha256":"2b05c66f211563bbe6d83460ee8990fc5c6d3de3717120fa7dc560c41ab8d4bd","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-12/0014-01.webp","sha256":"91a849b428ec71f41a473b8800d1439335cc50d064962d210ac5b240e059caf5","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":153392}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-12-0015","source":"TBR-0472-12","pdf_page":15,"printed_page":982,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"decades. Let the community play a role in its own future versus a policy that allows\ndevelopers to decide what is best for us.\nIn my view, the people of Osterville are trying to preserve and protect their way of life by\nkeeping zoning and development regulations in place as we work towards finding solutions\nthat work for everyone...those who may benefit, and those who call this home already.\nIt has been mentioned that the companies hired by the CCC to assist them with design\nguidelines were from Arkansas, Georgia and Philadelphia. My feeling is the reason that\npeople love New England so much is because it is unique, and doesn’t look like most of the\nrest of the USA. The last thing | want to see is homogenized plans that\nmimic parts of the country that are nothing like Cape Cod.\n| note that villagers are mystified by the CCC’s flawed process of favoring “stakeholders”\ninput over residents and taxpayers. A lot of those folks were getting paid to take part in CCC\nplanning meetings while the general public seemed almost completely left out. These plans\nthen wound up being Barnstable’s plans too but it seems many are grateful that individual\nsub-committees have been created to further examine each issue with a mix of Councilors\nand residents. This is a welcome change.\nOne comment | heard in LCP meetings was that the final results will be “different than\nperceived.” This sentiment is welcome but sadly irrelevant unless the Zoning and Housing\nDrafts are corrected to match the very real concerns of the public. It’s the paper that will\nmatter when push comes to shove, not what was said \"in passing\" to appease the\npublic. These documents must reflect the views of residents and the Future Land Use Maps\nmust also do the same.\nIn conclusion, formal OVA comments are pending and those above are my own brief\nsynopsis of many thoughts and opinions versus a Board document. The OVA version will\naddress the issues, identify problems, in some cases suggest solutions, and be submitted for\napproval by our Board before being forwarded. | do know that the OVA\nappreciates the opportunity to share the opinions we have gathered\nby cultivating community awareness and bringing all these issues into\nthe limelight for discussion in our village.\nAs an individual, | recognize your efforts and welcoming approach and\n| am cautiously optimistic you actually listen and care. Your job is\nincredibly challenging and | don’t mean to be negative in any way but\nrather just wanted share a bit of what | know to this point with hope\nthat it may help us both short and long term.

Businesses such as Crosby Yacht Yard are already under extreme pressure to give\nup on the demanding work of marine service and the public access benefit of providing places\nto go boating and enjoy the water’s edge.\nWe are pressured to instead let non-water-dependent development take over to just look at\nthe water like a reflecting pond for residences or hotels or Airbnb’s. We all benefit from the\nhistory and traditions of actual work being done here along the waterfront and we would\nappreciate aggressive planning to this end.\nThis approach has the additional benefit of being compatible with climate resiliency because\nwater dependent uses are highly adaptable to tidal surge and climate change impacts.\nAt our property, Crosby Yacht Yard, the area looks on the map as though there is a “Maritime”\nicon without explanation of what that means. What does it mean?\nIt also looks as though there is a light blue underlay, which the map key says is “Light\nCommercial” identified as a corridor to study for traffic impacts and to analyze proper land\nuses. What does this mean; especially does this suggest there is something improper about\nwhat is happening at our 100-yr old boatyard currently?\n1\nLAUNCH — TUGS — STRIPER — HAWK — CANYON 30 — WIANNO SENIOR\nESTABLISHED 1850\nCUSTOM BUILDERS:\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 984","text_sha256":"86e0eef6fd9e9d259bf91b2817a7f8aa0537fb0e01d14e5f58e89cc301ca3399","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-12/0017-01.webp","sha256":"831d57ae2c9ca6dbf96281b2fe6264419a63047b354e27bb71dd4afa88af3478","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":105046}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-12-0018","source":"TBR-0472-12","pdf_page":18,"printed_page":985,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"| also want to emphasize that the business of boating has changed enormously over the past\nmany decades, and the old-fashioned fear that marine servicing is a big pollution source just\nisn’t valid in modern times.\nWe manage materials and stormwater and waste products with sophistication that probably\nexceeds most other industries and surely exceeds that of households in this aquifer.

For example, when | listen to residents at public meetings, | appreciate so much hearing and\nlearning from people who live in Hyannis and their concerns and wishes for Hyannis that | can't imagine\nsomeone else imposing a vision on them. | believe their views for Hyannis should be captured and\nreflected in plans. The notion of developing and redeveloping village centers mirrors the Cape Cod\nCommission's computer-generated Community Activity Center construct. That exercise was\ndisconnected from local facts and locals’ preferences. Even putting that process aside, consider for\nexample, whether you've ever heard people clamor to \"redevelop\" the beautiful Main Street in\nCenterville? Have you ever heard local residents express a desire to change it through consultant-\ngenerated \"Design Guidelines\"? | encourage the marking of village centers as \"to be preserved\" to be\nadopted as final. In fact, village centers warrant investment in preservation to maintain them as the draw\nthat they have long been.\nSimilarly, | support preserving single-family zoning, including in the areas around village centers as well.\nConsider, for example, the current density in the area around Osterville Village, with more dense\ncondominium complexes than perhaps anywhere in Town, and property lots in the surrounding areas\nthat are generally 1/4 or 1/3 of an acre. | strongly oppose the proposal to allow conversion of single-\nfamily homes to duplexes and triplexes By Right, and the other dense development proposals that echo\nthe Cape Cod Commission's Regional Housing Strategy. If one were to pursue such dramatic change to\nneighborhoods, one would need to provide direct town mail notice to homeowners and do considerably\nmore intense public processes to even consider such a shift in our residential land use. There\nare many ways to meet locals’ housing needs without upending single-family zoning and the town should\npursue those that are able to be executed in the near term and that have community support. Chief\namong them is making use of town-owned property for small, accessible housing for young people and\nseniors. In addition, the town should prioritize affordability in the range of housing decisions -\naffordability requirements were raised and left to the side in the ADU regulation and in the density zoning\n1\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 997","text_sha256":"190564111d7d51c6d377819e86e379bcf56026f42fdcc871f3f39ad5257d43df","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-12/0030-01.webp","sha256":"97b9c391e371e6501490c22efe18714e1f40e0bb15250c194ca7d68e0891af9a","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":163350}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-12-0031","source":"TBR-0472-12","pdf_page":31,"printed_page":998,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"change in Hyannis, where the town consultant told the town to expect new units made possible by Form\nBased Zoning (now called design driven zoning and other modified names) to be at the high end of the\nmarket rate. That does not ultimately serve the people who most need help.\nIn connection with land use and housing, short-term rental businesses - STRs operated by people who\nown homes and never live in them but rather use them as higher-profit mini-hotels -\ndo not belong in residential nieghborhoods. Massachusetts courts agree. To be clear, this is different\nfrom Cape Cod family rental traditions, people who rent their own homes for periods in the summer. The\nformer are commercial enterprises. It is well documented by independent institutions that allowing such\nuse of housing stock puts upward pressure on all housing prices (not just affordable housing) as local\nfamilies compete for housing with investors calculating the sizable STR revenue stream, and drives up\nthe price of housing rents for locals. We have all heard endlessly the very predictable and very sad\naccounts of locals getting kicked out of their \"winter rentals\" to make way for much more profitable\nAirbnb use. Nearly all the great and thriving tourist-dependent communities across this country have\nmade a decision to prioritize locals' need for housing by restricting such use. There are myriad ways to do\nthat which have withstood legal challenges by STR operators and industry and which have not adversely\naffected tourism. The LCP recommendation to deal with the need for long-term rentals by paying people\nnot to STR - through a property tax exemption - should be rejected. You may know that public records\nshow it originated not from the years of public dialogue about innumerable means to return some homes\nused as Airbnb businesses to use as homes for locals, but rather from one chamber of commerce (which\nis on record opposing mainstream STR restrictions) email to a town consultant after the public housing\nsurveys and focus groups closed. Its origin was one community out west whose housing stock was\ndevastated by STRs; subsequent media reports that the Town leaders consider the program a flop,\nneeding to be restructured for any going forward purpose. In addition, the proposal shifts property tax\nburdens away from owners of housing stock not used as homes to people who live in the homes they\nown. By all accounts, extending the residential tax exemption would not in any case make up the revenue\nloss to incent one not to STR - analysis shows that one makes more in two months operating an Airbnb\nthan one could earn by renting the same property year round. Before looking to create new housing\nstock, consider what Town housing said to the Housing Committee in an early Airbnb conversation\nreported in meeting minutes: \"We have a lot of housing stock. It is just not being used to house locals.\"\nThis town can preserve rental traditions and prioritize locals in the use of existing housing stock. Finally,\nany LCP Committee member who owns a house in Barnstable they do not live in and instead monetizes\nhousing as a short-term rental business should not be participating in or influencing these land use and\nhousing discussions or any LCP recommendation. Recall the Planning Board debacle a few years back\nthat had to be \"redone\" due to an Airbnb financial interest and failure to recuse. By information and belief\nand vacation rental ads on-line, the LCP Committee has such an issue.\nThank you for the time you contribute to the town and consideration of these views.\nHeather Hunt\nBarnstable resident\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 998","text_sha256":"c4c4bbc5944670aa09f26e7467f466909a7de13b26e55afe944616342a77385b","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-12/0031-01.webp","sha256":"bd9100748063b91ae085edac2ddf7122451bebb7c261a6d9541fe1cb6725e578","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":168058}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-12-0032","source":"TBR-0472-12","pdf_page":32,"printed_page":999,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Maldonado, Kaitlyn\nFrom: lorainepress\nSent: Tuesday, October 22, 2024 3:40 PM\nTo: Barnstable LCP\nSubject: My Village and My Neighborhood\n| support preserving my Village of Osterville and my single family neighborhood in Osterville.

There are also many discussions in many public documents about how\nincreased water flowing to downgradient residents raises the ground level water for these residents which impacts these\nresident’s private land use. Several previous plans have proposed injecting treated sewer water into the ground around\nthe college. This will have a serious impact on the water ground level near the college, particularly at the lowest point at\n1780 Main Street (6A) West BARNSTABLE, which can be considered “ground zero” for this huge problem.\nWith proposed plans to develop housing behind the Burger King parking lot comes an increase in population for this area\nwhich increases traffic which shed more oil, chemicals (battery acid for example) during storm events-all of which goes\ndownhill, goes into ground water and out to Cape Cod Bay - UNLESS MAJOR MITIGATING WATER CLEANING\nINFRASTRUCTURES ARE INSTALLED AT THE SITES AND SURROUNDING AREA BEFORE DEVELOPMENT.\nBefore ANY development is considered for the West Barnstable area at and near the Community College, a FULL STUDY\nof the impact on the downgradient residential area must be completed along with SOLUTIONS to any problems which\nwould be FURTHER WORSENED BY MORE UPGRADIENT DEVELOPMENT.\nSubmitted by\nJane Saunders and Patrick Page\neee “Stable\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1001","text_sha256":"9f698ddba2f7330a17234c3453dbc6ecc184accf7559cbd4ea595fc91a8c9ac5","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-12/0034-01.webp","sha256":"3e16eea1613437b3f2afa12d4c90b24ac776060b0c54bfbd489b0460b3d5ad5a","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":85604}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-12-0035","source":"TBR-0472-12","pdf_page":35,"printed_page":1002,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"From: Betty Ludtke ——\nSent: Sunday, August 24, 2025 9:06 PM\nTo: FOIA Mailbox\nSubject: Fwd: Complaint data for Hyannis\nSent from my iPad\nBegin forwarded message:\nPr ———\nDate: June 3, 2024 at 4:02:49 PM EDT\nTo: Betty Ludtke , Charlie Bloom , Tom Doherty , Betsy Young , Jeffrey\nMendes , Natalie Pittenger , Eric Schwaab\nSubject: Re: Complaint data for Hyannis\nThan you Eric.\nDebra\nOn Monday, June 3, 2024 at 07:13:01 AM EDT, Eric Schwaab wrote:\nGood morning!\nAs you may know we've been taking a close look at how quality of life complaints are\nhandled by the Town.\nAttached are the combined Health and Building complaints from 12/2021 to 4/2024 for\nHyannis\nThis is an excel file. | can send you a PDF if that is better for you.\nIt is sorted by street, but you can FIND entries by keyword.\nPlease scan the listings and highlight any particular concerns.

LIHTC\nThe Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program is the most important resource for\ncreating affordable housing in the United States today. Created by the Tax Reform Act of 1986,\nthe LIHTC program gives State and local LIHTC-allocating agencies the equivalent of\napproximately $10 billion in annual budget authority to issue tax credits for the acquisition,\nrehabilitation, or new construction of rental housing targeted to lower-income households.\nThe tax credits represent a dollar-for-dollar reduction of developer's federal income tax due.

MassHousing/Workforce Housing Initiative\nMassHousing is an independent, quasi-public agency created in 1966 and charged with\nproviding financing for affordable housing in Massachusetts. The Agency raises capital by\nselling bonds and lends the proceeds to low- and moderate-income homebuyers and\nhomeowners, and to developers who build or preserve affordable and/or mixed-income rental\nhousing. MassHousing does not use taxpayer dollars to sustain its operations, although it\nadministers some publicly funded programs on behalf of the Commonwealth. Since its\ninception, MassHousing has provided more than $30 billion for affordable housing.\nFor more info: https://www.masshousing.com/en/about\nQuestions to ask: What form does the MassHousing/Workforce Housing portion of the Harbor\nVue financing take? Is it aloan? Which Winn entity is the borrower? Is it forgivable and, if so,\nunder what circumstances?\n4. BAHGDT/Barnstable Affordable Housing and Growth Development Trust\nFunds from the trust are available to provide for gap funding to support the development of\naffordable/community housing rental or homeownership units. Development activities include\nredevelopment of existing structures or buildings, land acquisition, new construction, or\nconversion of market units to affordable housing units. Potential funding per affordable unit is\nup to $100,000 and is up to $50,000 per community housing unit. The specific amount to be\nawarded will depend on the Trust’s evaluation of the particular aspects of each project as they\nrelate to the established housing priorities and evaluation criteria as referenced in the NOFA,\nTotal potential maximum funding for an affordable housing project of $1,000,000 and $260,000\nfor a community housing project.\nFor more info: https://townofbarnstable.us/boardscommittees/AffordableHousingGrowth/\nAnalyst commentary\nWinn is a major U.S. developer of multifamily housing in 17 states.

Amounting to 2.5% of project cost, $2 million is a rounding error for this\ndeveloper. It won’t make or break Winn’s project economics for 307 Main Street. Arguably,\nthe developer has already maximized its federal and state subsidies and tax incentives, and |\ncontend that Winn doesn’t need this last $2 million. In addition, this request seems to exceed\nthe Trust’s $1,000,000 maximum funding level for an affordable housing project in Barnstable.\nRecommendation\nCommittee should decline to fund the Harbor Vue project. As a policy matter, the Trust should\nreserve scarce taxpayer dollars for future affordable housing projects in Barnstable where the\nneed is greater and the Trust’s funds would make a difference in whether a project gets built.\nCommittee members ought to ask a lot of tough questions about all the subsidies that Winn is\napplying for, which are forecast at $426,717 per bedroom (including studios).

No need for a reply. | am writing to flag some issues\nfollowing Monday's Planning Board meeting about the HPP.\n1. Public Presentation and Comment on Major Plans. The Planning Department\nput out a revised draft Housing Production Plan this spring. It had not been talked\nabout for over a year, and the new draft has not been presented substantively\nanywhere to my knowledge. Why is the substance of major plans presented to\nencourage public awareness and engagement?\nThe HPP was first on a Housing Committee agenda. No public showed up. It was\nthen on two Planning Board agendas. No public showed up at either meeting. No\nmember of either committee said why is no one here? What was done to get public\ninput? Has it been presented to civic associations? Should we do something?\n| sent the Planning Department 2 pages of public comment before the Housing\nCommittee. | said | could not be there, and please record it as if | was. When | later\nwatched and saw no mention, | followed up. The staff reply was we didn't know you\nmeant it for the Housing Committee. They said it would be sent to the Planning\nBoard. The only mention of any public comment at the Planning Board was my\nsubsequent verbal request for maps to accompany land use changes, which the\nPlanning Board Chair said that was up to the LCP.\nIn the April 25th Town Manager Report, Mark Ells said public comment on the HPP\nwould be gathered and posted. That did not happen. Was there really no verbal or\nwritten comment? If | was literally the only person to send in comments, is that not\na flag that there is a problem with public awareness efforts? Or is no public\nengagement a goal because that is what it looks like to observers.\nCould you consider encouraging Town staff to give substantive presentations\nto the public on key draft plans that affect nearly all residents? Take\nadvantage of the fact that we have civic associations where residents meet,\nhave other community groups and gatherings, and so on? These documents\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1054","text_sha256":"13704e1608ce2064c37222e5d559c3afdbd3852d45923d88d67a9d74c13e0718","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-13/0007-01.webp","sha256":"4f021bc2c6a5b4b6cac6b7105a632ee33a24fa715a43b40427197c52bda16b2f","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":110394}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-13-0008","source":"TBR-0472-13","pdf_page":8,"printed_page":1055,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"sit on the town website page 3 layers deep, easily available to those who\nknow to look, and how to look. That's almost no one.\nSimilarly, the LCP draft chapters on land use and housing were put out for\ncomment with no public presentation of their substance. The turnout out was\nless than 1/2 of 1%, and those few people a) didn't hear substance and b)\nwere proactively discouraged from discussing their views but rather\nexpressing themselves via dots on a board.\n2. Maps with Proposed Land Use Changes. On Monday, | asked the Planning\nDepartment for maps that correspond with the land use changes in the HPP. Staff\nsaid they would check in with the LCP leadership about maps. The Planning Board\nChair's verbal response to the map request was to say the HPP sets out strategies\nand the LCP would determine the locations of zoning changes. Well, the LCP\nalready put out land use and housing chapters for feedback without maps (and\nwithout any substantive presentation at village meetings) and since April has\nignored requests for maps corresponding to proposed land use changes\nIt is unreasonable and pointless to ask for public comment on land use changes\nwithout maps. Withholding maps is not new. The first time | tracked a zoning issue\nhere it as a former Councilor leading a land use change proposal at an ad hoc\ncommittee for ~6 months. He withheld maps until the very last meeting. The maps\nshowed he owned land where the land use changes - what's called the strategy,\nnow - were being proposed. This separating of land use change proposals and\nmaps/locations is a learned tactic to minimize reactions, in my view....\n| redlined the prior HPP draft and the revised version issued for comment. The\nPlanning Dept scrubbed out reference to changing zoning 1/2 mile around certain\nvillages - which language Ells was asked about last year and met with a really\nvigorous denial of any such proposal. That's on video. In this version issued for\ncomment, the village names are gone as is the reference to 1/2 mile circumference\naround them where the prior draft said change zoning here.\nEarlier records, back in 2022, show the Planning Department telling the consultant\nit \"had a lot of concern with the wording of the Goals and Strategies being public\nfacing in the current format.\" The land use change was not a concern - being direct\nwith the public was.\nSo today, we have a scrubbed document to mitigate public reaction and no maps.\nSee images below that show the editing out of the specific zoning change\nproposals that Mark Ells publicly and repeatedly denied existed when asked about\nthe prior draft.\nCould you consider asking that draft land use change proposals be\naccompanied by maps - as a matter of course and before public comment?\n3. Planning Board members publicly question the validity of the new Ad Hoc\nSubcommittees (audio from Channel 18 attached) and it reserved acting on\nthe HPP until after the Ad Hocs review it.

It's a useful look.\nSome notable changes, among others you may see:\n1. Redeveloping/rezoning Villages. p. 55 The 2023 version proposed to\nmove formed based code from Hyannis to the CCC Community Activity\nCenters Osterville and Barnstable Village, and Jenkins added Centerville\nwith no explanation. The CCC called for multi-family by right 1/4 mile\naround village centers. Jenkins grew that in the 2023 version to 1/2 mile.\nFrom the Channel 18 video of the 2023 presentations, | took images and\nout them into a presentation to the OVA and this zoning change proposal\nis in the works, it's a big deal. etc. This was consistent with Planning's\n2020 announcement to Housing that they planned to move form based\ncode to other villages, which statement in minutes they've denied over and\nover. Ells came to a later OVA meeting and was asked about this image\nshowing his staff saying move this to those 3 villages. He said over and\nover there is no proposal to change zoning in the other villages. | said\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1059","text_sha256":"d086516e3bd4e0eb57b412d348b80a9be7afa3b9d2e68132e6412c31536d158a","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-13/0012-01.webp","sha256":"d401bc9936be45aa3688a6bf498d17b0e2070bd0b94cd39fd3ce93ffcd41580c","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":96222}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-13-0013","source":"TBR-0472-13","pdf_page":13,"printed_page":1060,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Mark we are literally looking at your staff's work, not an interpretation of it.\nIt is in writing on the screen you are looking at (and it was well down the\nroad - on the way to Planning and then TC for March adoption.) He stuck\nto his script that there is no proposal. He later called it misinformation. This\nis all on You Tube.\nThe 2024 version has deleted the reference to zoning that was\nimplemented in the Hyannis and also deleted the specific villages to where\nit would be moved. It deletes the reference to 1/2 mile around the 3\nvillages and changes to \"around villages\" or something like that. It's now a\nvague passage that goes to the same place but in such an unclear way\nthat no one knows what it means and thus, people will not react as they\nwould if this was plainly stated as it was in 2023. This same vague\nstrategy is in the draft LCP as well.\n2. Affordable Housing %. The # slipped down from April 2023 to now\nfrom 7.23 to 6.78. Of course it did. It will keep doing that with the build\nbuild model.\n3. Accessory Affordable Apartment Program. When the ADU ordinance\nwas under consideration, Jenkins reported at a meeting that the\nAccessory Affordable Apartment Program (a deed restriction) would stay\non the books but was expected to diminish by attrition. That program is an\naccessory dwelling unit permit program for unit rental to tenants below a\ncertain income level. My sister watched the ZBA agendas and did see that\nunit after unit were dropping out, as predicted after the ADU ordinance\npassed. In the ADU matter, the Council did not even talk about Felicia's\nsuggestion to include an affordability component in the rule. Mort and\nothers strongly opposed Felicia's suggestion for that in public comment.\nNow, the Planning Dept is saying let's financially incent this program that\nthey knew would suffer from attrition and did not want to track. On tracking\nthe affordability apartments they now want to incent, the former Housing\nstaff literally said no one has been tracking these units anyway. We can\nfind that. It was flippant.\n4. Planning Assumptions based on people who buy homes with a\nguest bedroom or office. The plan leaps to label a \"mismatch\" between\nhow many people live in a home and how many bedrooms a home has\nmeans there is a need for more studios and one bedrooms. Pretending to\nmind read homeowners and make assumptions about people's choices is\nnot the way to justify converting single families to multi-families or to let\ndevelopers cram units into Main St. Hyannis.\nHope this is helpful.\nHeather Hunt\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1060","text_sha256":"6ae3a39062838616bfeb2be7afa56f42bca616fec4b6b4c875ebc25c72a55e02","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-13/0013-01.webp","sha256":"2c0795f84ef23fcad8ec93dd4b4174b3540b5e9c26459931fdc8e367c3238250","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":124710}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-13-0014","source":"TBR-0472-13","pdf_page":14,"printed_page":1061,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"From: Betty Ludtke <<\nSent: Monday, August 25, 2025 7:30 AM\nTo: FOIA Mailbox\nSubject: Fwd: hyannis design\nSent from my iPad\nBegin forwarded message:\nFrom: Betty Ludtke\nDate: February 21, 2025 at 11:47:37 AM EST\nTo: heather hunt\nSubject: Re: hyannis design\nHeather,\nYou have hit the nail on the head.

How does the proposal change parking requirements - from\nwhat to what? Where did the proposal to reduce required parking spaces\ncome from? Did residents ask for less parking for residents? Did the\nsurvey ask residents about reducing parking for residential properties?\nThe proposal to reduce parking requirements for residential development\nin Downtown Hyannis came from a number of sources. The Downtown\nHyannis Parking Study and Hyannis Growth Incentive Zone study, both\nproduced with extensive community input, emphasize the importance of\nshared parking. When land uses with different parking demands share\nparking, it requires less land be dedicated to parking, which allows for\nmore housing and less paved surfaces — both benefits to a vibrant\ndowntown. These factors are especially important to consider when trying\nto encourage top-of-shop housing and small scale infill development.\nReducing parking requirements for multi-family residential development is\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1070","text_sha256":"b6bebcfe3a21e6fb51ed620ce0371af8feb91c11a6708cdb7b7a6c8f2e7f1a48","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-13/0023-01.webp","sha256":"8b244d93c91a8c2046f5c6bf34f62b8f8c96d00d32ceb5b2f0e68eb5a374e423","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":112946}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-13-0024","source":"TBR-0472-13","pdf_page":24,"printed_page":1071,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"also consistent with the Commonwealth's Housing Choice efforts that seek\nto encourage new housing production.

The last time you speculated about illegal\nconstruction was at 168 Melbourne it turned out to be a guy re-painting his\nfinished basement which was not construction and not a violation of anything.\n| have no reason to believe that you aren’t sincere or telling the truth, but | cannot\nprosecute a case on hearsay.

Chief among them is making use of town-owned\nproperty for small, accessible housing for young people and seniors. In\naddition, the town should prioritize affordability in the range of housing\ndecisions - affordability requirements were raised and left to the side in the\nADU regulation and in the density zoning change in Hyannis, where the\ntown consultant told the town to expect new units made possible by Form\nBased Zoning (now called design driven zoning and other modified\nnames) to be at the high end of the market rate.

We have all heard endlessly\nthe very predictable and very sad accounts of locals getting kicked out of\ntheir \"winter rentals\" to make way for much more profitable Airbnb use.\nNearly all the great and thriving tourist-dependent communities across this\ncountry have made a decision to prioritize locals' need for housing by\nrestricting such use. There are myriad ways to do that which have\nwithstood legal challenges by STR operators and industry and which have\nnot adversely affected tourism. The LCP recommendation to deal with the\nneed for long-term rentals by paying people not to STR - through a\nproperty tax exemption - should be rejected. You may know that public\nrecords show it originated not from the years of public dialogue about\ninnumerable means to return some homes used as Airbnb businesses to\nuse as homes for locals, but rather from one chamber of commerce (which\nis on record opposing mainstream STR restrictions) email to a town\nconsultant after the public housing surveys and focus groups closed. Its\norigin was one community out west whose housing stock was devastated\nby STRs; subsequent media reports that the Town leaders consider the\nprogram a flop, needing to be restructured for any going forward purpose.\nIn addition, the proposal shifts property tax burdens away from owners of\nhousing stock not used as homes to people who live in the homes they\nown. By all accounts, extending the residential tax exemption would not in\nany case make up the revenue loss to incent one not to STR - analysis\nshows that one makes more in two months operating an Airbnb than one\ncould earn by renting the same property year round. Before looking to\ncreate new housing stock, consider what Town housing said to the\nHousing Committee in an early Airbnb conversation reported in meeting\nminutes: \"We have a lot of housing stock. It is just not being used to house\nlocals.\" This town can preserve rental traditions and prioritize locals in the\nuse of existing housing stock. Finally, any LCP Committee member who\nowns a house in Barnstable they do not live in and instead monetizes\nhousing as a short-term rental business should not be participating in or\ninfluencing these land use and housing discussions or any LCP\nrecommendation. Recall the Planning Board debacle a few years back\nthat had to be \"redone\" due to an Airbnb financial interest and failure to\nrecuse.

It was a\nstickies drumbeat (~16 mentions). People literally said we want to use\nour voices, not dots. The public refrain after was that the process was\ndesigned for grade schoolers.

It will be helpful if you can\nmark requests which required special handling for permits/variances, but thatvis optional.\nWe plan to match business types and complaints by address to determine which businesses are most likely to produce\na complaint? We also hope to identify repeat offenders by business type.\nThe chart below shows complaints in Hyannis by quarter from 2020-24. As you see, there is a reversion to the mean\nunderway (e.g. things are getting back to normal).\nLet me know next steps. | plan to meet with IT again on Tuesday.

Specifically, how do we\nevaluate the financial viability of an LLC requesting funds from a trust\nadministered by the Town. In the case of the WINN application before\nthe Trust, Winn has failed to secure commitments from State and/or\nFederal sources. They are anticipating $65 million in grant funding, but\nhave no commitment letters to offer. How will these circumstances be\nevaluated? See Exhibit 6 of application to the Trust.\nWhat are plans by the town to require security for a grant to an LLC with\nno operating history and no funding? Will you be securing your\ninvestment with real estate or simply giving an unknown entity your\nmoney? What type of contractual guarantees are typically required to\nsecure grants of this type from the trust? And is the trust allowed to take\nequity positions in projects requesting early financing for uncertain\nprojects?\nWhat are the actual voting procedures? Is a simple majority of the\nAdvisory Committee sufficient to approve a disbursement? Does the\nTown Council vote to accept the recommendations of the Advisory\nCommittee? And what are the appeal processes allowed by law? Do\nordinary citizens of the town have standing in your estimation?\nFinally, is the public allowed to comment at meetings of the Advisory\nCouncil? | have requested time to speak and have not received an\nanswer from Planning.

This is\ncertainly preferable to a diesel generator.\n3) Will the EV charging stations be available to the public?

Instead, it is one integrated system of life upon\nwhich humans depend and in which destructive activities have far-reaching and cascading negative\nimpacts, system wide. Supporting this movement and aligning local law and policy with the\nunderstanding that Nature must be respected and protected as an entity with rights will assist in\nsecuring our human right to a clean environment. That right is already established for Falmouth\nresidents by our state constitution, but it is not yet effectuated by our laws and policies.\nFalmouth owes its very existence to its unique natural setting: the south- western tip of Cape Cod,\nwhere a natural aquifer supplies fresh water, the Gulf Stream moderates the climate, and Nature\nprovides sustenance and spiritual rejuvenation. The fifty square miles of sandy beaches, coves and\ninlets, vernal pools, rivers, creeks, natural bogs, ponds, pine and oak forests, and grasslands have\nsupported human communities for time immemorial. This rich environment supports a diverse\nnatural community of animal and plant life: migratory and local bird and fish species, coyote, deer,\nbobcats, racoons, turtles, amphibians, horseshoe crabs, insects, clams, pine and oak scrub\nforests.\nThe first humans to be at home in this land were the Wampanoag and Nauset peoples, who have\nlived on this land for more than 10,000 years. We hereby acknowledge and honor these First\nPeoples, their cultures, and their stewardship of this land.\nThe townspeople are deeply attached to this life-giving environment. Their intimate connection with\nNature is a defining characteristic of this community, where residents work collaboratively to\nprotect the natural environment which sustains us and attracts our visitors. There are more than\n2000 acres of protected conservation land - wetlands, uplands and farms - in Falmouth, managed\nby the Town, The 300 Committee Land Trust, Salt Pond Area Bird Sanctuaries and others. Major\nsuccesses include the restorations of the Coonamessett and Childs Rivers, grasslands, vernal\npools, and other ecosystems; these projects have received widespread acknowledgment for their\nnature-based solutions that restored the environment, increased biodiversity, and increased\ncommunity resilience to climate disruption.\nFalmouth’s location and abundant natural life and its commitment to environmental stewardship\nhave made it a hub for environmental study. The community includes the Woods Hole\nOceanographic Institution, Marine Biological Laboratory, Woodwell Climate Research Center, Sea\nEducation Association, U.S. Geological Survey, and National Marine Fisheries Services — all world-\nrenowned research and educational institutions.\nToday, despite this extensive environmental work, the community experiences a deep sense of\nsorrow and frustration as we witness the loss of its treasured natural environment. The herring\npopulation has been decimated. Right whales are fast disappearing and are federally listed as\nendangered. Shorebirds, turtles, fish, birds of prey, mammals, insects, and plants are included\namong the forty-one Cape Cod species that the state now lists as endangered, threatened or of\nspecial concern. Habitats are being fragmented and destroyed, and the waters are being polluted\nby devastating land development, often undertaken without adequate consideration of\nenvironmental impacts. Nitrogen levels in the town’s waters already exceed state standards, which\n2\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1157","text_sha256":"338ee25ce9fa2eeea1fceb5b8f338c7e9f5c1df7b5b0bde3468088e891d97aec","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-14/0019-01.webp","sha256":"d2669ae73ef175332dc0999011635bc946d479cc9a50766c5249f76f57ab8c0e","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":150924}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-14-0020","source":"TBR-0472-14","pdf_page":20,"printed_page":1158,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"means that aquatic ecosystems and species will continue to decline unless water quality is\nadequately addressed.\nHowever, land development continues because Falmouth needs more affordable and workforce\nhousing to serve the community’s diverse economic needs of our community. This need must be\nequitably weighed against adverse impacts upon the environment and the services it provides.\nThese include, among others, the role of the forests, grasslands and wetlands in both mitigating\nnitrogen inputs to the groundwater and capturing and storing carbon.\nAlthough the Massachusetts state constitution establishes in Article 97 that all the state’s people\nhave a right to a clean environment, the nation’s environmental laws have proven inadequate to\neffectuate this right. They regulate human use of the environment by metering pollution and\ncurtailing some adverse impacts of destructive human activities; but they neither prohibit nor\nsufficiently limit them. These fifty-year old federal laws reflect neither the extremity of the current\nenvironmental crisis, nor the current scientific understanding of the interrelated planetary systems\nthat support all life, nor the ancient understanding that we are part of Nature, nor the spiritual belief\nthat life on Earth must be protected as a divine creation.\nBecause current laws and policies do not and cannot adequately protect the environment, nations,\nstates, and communities, world-wide are calling for new laws and policies, based on eco-centric\nparadigms that will better protect Nature, including recognition of Nature’s right to exist, persist,\nnaturally regenerate, and be restored. In response, Rights of Nature enactments have been |\nformally adopted by nations, states, tribal governments, provinces, cities, and towns; and they have\nbeen recognized and enforced by courts in many countries.\nRapidly increasing support for recognition of Nature’s Rights has also come from institutions,\nreligious groups, and political leaders. The United Nation’s Harmony with Nature Program has\nannually hosted an Earth Day Dialogue, produced annual reports on holistic, sustainable\ndevelopment in Harmony with Nature, and promoted the shift to Earth-centered laws and policies,\nparticularly those recognizing the Rights of Nature. In 2015, Pope Francis called on all humanity to\nprotect our “common home” in his Encyclical Letter “Laudato Si.” In 2021, the US United Church of\nChrist adopted a Rights of Nature resolution.\nAcross the United States, more than eighty local and tribal governments have adopted laws,\nresolutions, and other enactments recognizing the Rights of Nature. Among them is the April 2023\nenactment of the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribal Council declaring a State of Emergency for the\nRights of Nature of the Cape Cod herring.\nRights of Nature enactments enhance protections for rivers, lakes, particular ecosystems or natural\ncommunities, as well as for specific species. They take various forms, including treaties,\nconstitutional provisions, statutory laws, administrative policies, declarations, or resolutions; but\nall are intended to enhance protection for the environment on which we and all life depend.\nRecognition of Nature Rights can, likewise, help Falmouth protect its cherished natural\nenvironment.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1158","text_sha256":"5d54e4581cecd81e211bf2231bcc1684aa716235f3fd8a8cde9504710af22d10","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-14/0020-01.webp","sha256":"af6793e395d1867557b5dde3b5b459c5b4a5f3f1751560507121469b8d72f027","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":136018}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-14-0021","source":"TBR-0472-14","pdf_page":21,"printed_page":1159,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"From: Betty Ludtk [OEE 2t>\nSent: Friday, August 22, 2025 5:36 PM\nTo: FOIA Mailbox\nSubject: Fwd: Storage options - fund raising\nSent from my iPad\nBegin forwarded message:\nFrom: Eric Schwaab\nDate: April 12, 2024 at 7:08:03 AM EDT\nTe, Betty Ludtke , Tom\nSt Sre«. storage options - fund raising\nGood morning Joe,\nBetty Ludtke asked me to help publicize your need for storage.\n| saw that you already have a Facebook page so | posted your message to Nextdoor.

The Housing Production Plan (HPP) is\na proactive plan that identifies our housing needs and outlines goals and strategies to increase\nthe number of affordable housing units in our community and increase housing attainability for\nour residents. This HPP establishes a strategic plan for production and preservation of\naffordable and mixed-income housing that is based on a comprehensive housing needs\nassessment and provides a detailed analysis of development constraints. The Town seeks\npublic feedback on this strategic plan to ensure the actions identified are appropriate for\nBarnstable.\nThis HPP is being prepared in accordance with the Massachusetts Executive Office of Housing\nand Livable Community's (EOHLC) requirements and describes how the Town of Barnstable\nplans to create and preserve affordable and mixed-income housing as well as create more\nhousing options in the community. It updates the Housing Production Plan and Housing Needs\nAssessment that were completed in 2016.\nThe draft was written with the feedback and support of the community and has been updated\nto reflect the latest available data and new state-level initiatives. Public comments will be\ngathered, posted, and made available to reviewers. The updated draft will be presented to the\nHousing Committee for feedback. The draft plan will be presented to the Planning Board. The\nplan will then proceed to the Town Council ‘Committee to Assess and Recommend Strategies\nfor Housing Creation Within the Town’ and the Town Council for final adoption.\nThe public is invited to review the draft plan on the project website:\nwww.townofbarnstable.us/Departments/planninganddevelopment/Projects/Housing-\nProduction-Plan-Update.asp There is also a snapshot of the plan available, which includes its\ngoals and strategies. Comments can be left directly on the website, written and mailed to Town\nHall at 367 Main Street, Hyannis (ATTN: Planning Department), or e-mailed to\nelizabeth.jenkins@town.barnstable.ma.us. The public is invited to participate in this process\nthrough plan adoption, but initial comments on the draft plan are welcomed through Friday,\nJune 14, 2024.\nFor any questions regarding this project, please contact Elizabeth Jenkins, Director of Planning\n& Development, at elizabeth.jenkins@town.barnstable.ma.us or 508-862-4678.\nHE\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1172","text_sha256":"1d8f132fa815cd92da1b068f1d74427d1462ff10efac5dfcf0d44f41da2ac43c","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-14/0034-01.webp","sha256":"06c2c900102d27f6c6c73c1fa5adad366fdac37b33442988fc2c5e4cd44e4789","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":127310}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-14-0035","source":"TBR-0472-14","pdf_page":35,"printed_page":1173,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"From: Betty Ludtke NE,\nSent: Sunday, August 24, 2025 9:21 PM\nTo: FOIA Mailbox\nSubject: Fwd: transition off social media\nSent from my iPad\nBegin forwarded message:\nFrom: Eric Schwaab\nDate: December 16, 2024 at 8:58:23 AM EST\nTo: kris.clark@town.barnstable.ma.us\nCc: \"Tamash, Craig\"\nSubject: transition off social media\nGood morning Kris,\nThis is an update on our rapid transition off social media. | have not made\nany posts on Nextdoor since Thuesday of last week and we've moved\nmost readers to Barnstable Unofficial on FB.

Overall, it\nwould appear that the Board is looking favorably on Winn’s Harbor Vue project, particularly in\nlight of your acknowledgement that the 12 permanently deed-restricted units that will be required\nby the Town’s “inclusionary” ordinance to be Affordable to households of up to 65% AMI, will\nneed to be further subsidized as Affordable to households of 60% AMI, in order to meet the\nrequirements of your Tax Credit application. With that in mind, the Board is not inclined to\nconsider the 5% AMI differential as an additional project benefit. In addition, as you heard, the\nBoard members and our community seek to leverage the Trust’s community investments to yield\nthe greatest degree of protected Affordability as we can. Winn’s offer to increase the number of\nprotected units from 19 to 25 is greatly appreciated and will expand the long-term affordability\nbenefits of this project.\nPlease accept the following as a formal request for written response by 3:30 pm on Friday\nMay 24\" to, among other things expressed via citizen comment, the following requests from the\nBoard:\n1. Please provide the slides deck that was presented at the Trust’s 5/3/24 meeting\n2.

With that in mind, the Board is not inclined to\nconsider the 5% AMI differential as an additional project benefit. In addition, as you heard, the\nBoard members and our community seek to leverage the Trust’s community investments to yield\nthe greatest degree of protected Affordability as we can. Winn’s offer to increase the number of\nprotected units from 19 to 25 is greatly appreciated and will expand the long-term affordability\nbenefits of this project.\nPlease accept the following as a formal request for written response by 3:30 pm on Friday\nMay 24\" to, among other things expressed via citizen comment, the following requests from the\nBoard:\n1. Please provide the slides deck that was presented at the Trust’s 5/3/24 meeting\n2. Please review the project’s ability to maximize the number of affordable units, as much as\npossible, and provide an updated pro-forma reflecting your best proposal.\n3.

Please review the project's ability to maximize the number of affordable units, as much\nas possible, and provide an updated pro-forma reflecting your best proposal.\nAfter several meetings and discussions with the BAHGDT board, we have revised our\nperpetuity goals to better align with the program's expectations and the constructive\nfeedback from the board. We have increased the number of units in perpetuity by\napproximately 60%, resulting in a per unit cost closer to the desired $100,000 per unit for\nhigh impact/high-cost projects such as Harbor Vue. We trust that this third adjustment is\nviewed as meaningful and serves as a path forward.\nRequest: $2MM in AHT funds\nUnits in Perpetuity: 30 units\n= 12 units at 60% AMI\n= 18 units at 80% AMI (approx. $110k / unit)\nThis represents 25% of the total units and allows for 100% of the total units (120) to remain\non the SHI in perpetuity.\n3.

A land bank is a\npublic authority or nonprofit organization that can acquire, hold, manage,\nredevelop, and dispose of\nproperty. Their efforts are aimed at achieving predefined community goals,\nsuch as the development of affordable housing or the stabilization of\nproperty values (in the case of cold or collapsing markets). Land banks\nare similar to redevelopment authorities,\nbut they differ in that they often have more flexibility in what they do with\nproperties, lack some powers (like eminent domain) associated with\nredevelopment authorities, and often have a longer-term outlook for their\nproperties. On Cape Cod, a regional housing land bank would have the\npowersvof a land bank, the mission of affordable housing development,\nand remit to act across the Cape. It could act as a patient facilitator of\naffordable housing development through the acquisition and sale of land.\nAcommunity land trust (CLT) is a type of nonprofit organization that holds\nland\nin perpetuity for affordable housing, conservation, or another community\npurpose. CLTs are typically governed by some mix of residents on CLT\nland, members of the surrounding community, and housing or real estate\nspecialists. Homes built on CLT land are owned by their residents, but the\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1194","text_sha256":"8b368783c05e5cab7f518fe57b14bcd98fb6a93e3ff5ab211702b3b2b73977fc","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-14/0056-01.webp","sha256":"eb2171dd594c7c52f8bcf5ad032a2b99656a99ae8bb1c4df427e5f9ceb74142d","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":129270}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-14-0057","source":"TBR-0472-14","pdf_page":57,"printed_page":1195,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"land is owned by the CLT and leased to the homeowner. (These are long-\nterm leases, often spanning 99 years.) Homes on CLT land are sold at\naffordable rates to income- eligible buyers, who are required to sell at\nan affordable price, should they choose to sell. A regional CLT would be\nable to acquire property, gather resources for affordable housing\ndevelopment, and monitor housing\naffordability on the property in perpetuity. A private nonprofit CLT could\nwork closely with a quasi-public land bank to take on different roles in the\nland assembly, development, and housing operations ecosystem, which is\nan increasingly common arrangement in communities with both land\nbanks and CLTs.2 These entities could also support attainable housing\nand should work in concert with conservation land trusts\nIMPLEMENTATION\nEstablish the entities. Determine what type of organization the community\nland trust will be (non-profit/non- governmental or public). Establisha new,\nhousing-focused land bank through a new act of the legislature and\napproval by Cape voters.\nIdentify and appoint boards and leadership for the entities.\nCapitalize the entity/entities. Community Preservation Act funds may be\none source of seed funding, though restrictions on this use must be\nclarified by the state. Stable land bank funding outside of annual\nappropriations is ideal, but even a one- time contribution by Cape Cod\ntowns could support establishment of a land bank and help it find\nindependent funding sources. One example is the Martha’s Vineyard Land\nBank (a conservation-focused entity), which is funded through a 2%\nstatutory fee on real estate transactions. Government entities’ general\nfunds may also be a source for capitalizing these entities.\nRESPONSIBLE ACTORS\nEstablishment of regional land procurement entities will require input from\nmunicipalities, support from residents, and guidance from those working in\naffordable and attainable housing. A regional housing land bank will\nrequire input and support from Cape Cod residents to establish and likely\nto capitalize it. If a community land trust is established, its board may be\ncomprised of resident representatives, real estate professionals, and\nhousing specialists.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1195","text_sha256":"2aabdebb037302082423c15a25e6b8a514550722c9814cd5162749cff7865d47","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-14/0057-01.webp","sha256":"a2b36b6eebe01dcb29e946c51f4afc0e413b6b11c77cecf1a050dd2661575132","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":108502}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-14-0058","source":"TBR-0472-14","pdf_page":58,"printed_page":1196,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Councilors:\nFelicia Penn\nPresident\nPrecinet 13\nCraig Tamash\nVice President\nPrecinct 4\nGordon Starr\nPrecinct 1\nDr. Kristin Terkelsen\nPrecinct 2\nBetty Ludike\nPrecinct 3\nJohn Crow\nPrecinct 5\nPaul C, Neary\nPrecinct 6\nSeth Burdick\nPrecinct 7\nJeffrey Mendes\nPrecinct 8\nCharles Bloom\nPrecinct 9\nMatthew P.

We thank\nyou for the extended opportunity to review and comment on this important document, After discussion at our February\n15, 2024 meeting, I offer the following comments on the Commission's draft report on behalf of the Barnstable Town\nCouncil.\nOur primary concern is with the draft report’s emphasis on regionalization of land use decisions and the suggested\nstrategies that remove land use decision-making from local communities, The authority over land use regutation in\nMassachusetts has been firmly established, and rightly so, within the affected municipalities, This structure allows for\nland use decisions to be made with input from residents and taxpayers, taking into account the history, context, and\ncollective goals and objectives for the future of the municipality. In Barnstable, land use decisions on a local level are\nreviewed for consistency with our adopted plans and policies which reflect the views of our residents. This is a process\nthat, when exercised efficiently, builds trust in local government and its elected officials, and produces outcomes that\nprotect, preserve, and enhance the quality of life for our residents.\nThe Commission’s proposal for the creation of a regional redevelopment authority deviates from this well-accepted\nframework. The loss of local control over the siting and development of housing in our local communities raises\nconcerns about effectively protecting natural resources, providing adequate public infrastructure, and consistently\nadministering the plans and policies that reflect our citizens’ views. The fact that this strategy would require special\nlegislation to deviate from state practice demonstrates the overreach of this proposal.\nThe Council further recognizes that local zoning is an important strategy to address local housing needs; we similarly\nseek to emphasize the primary role of municipalities in establishing land use policies within our own boundaries.\nElected and appointed officials at the local government level are best suited to listen to and understand the needs and\ndesires of the communities they represent and serve. These positions, and the plans and policies that reflect them,\nshould continue to control; regional designations or land use policies may inform local decision making, but should not\ndrive it or supersede it.\nWe look forward to continuing to be actively involved with creating housing solutions in our community in the future\nand continuing dialogue with the Commissign on effectuating appropriate solutions.\nSincerely,\npe\nFelicia R. Penn, President\nBarnstable Town Council\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1196","text_sha256":"fb6ec70fa9cb1d3e763b436b0cf50734aaf4c02657aacf539cc70ba31e229d4d","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-14/0058-01.webp","sha256":"dec5eba7c002013cb549a7d4f2a3901699bf669968d55a6eda037d2ed7c2bbc4","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":125300}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-14-0059","source":"TBR-0472-14","pdf_page":59,"printed_page":1197,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"From: Betty Ludtke qa=areses=====D\nSent: Monday, August 25, 2025 7:13 AM\nTo: FOIA Mailbox\nSubject: Fwd: Winn analysis\nSent from my iPad\nBegin forwarded message:\nFrom: Felicia Penn\nDate: April 29, 2024 at 6:42:38 AM EDT\nTo: heather hunt\nCc: Betty Ludtke , Charlie Bloom\nSubject: Re: Winn analysis\nYes, | saw this\nThey have a mortgage of only $9.9m\nIt's disgusting\nThx\nI'm going to tell Mark and Andy no\nSent from my iPhone\nFelicia :)\nOn Apr 28, 2024, at 6:50 PM, heather hunt wrote:\nSomeone sent me the below (I cannot do numbers at all) and\nthe person who sent this is not a housing person.

Sorry to bother you on a Sunday.\nBetty Ludtke would like you to double check some numbers.\nThe Barnstable Affordable Housing and Growth Development Trust has been asked for $2 million to underwrite Winn's\nmonstrosity at 307 Main Street.\nThe application indicates subsidy payments to Winn that include $44 million Federal and State funding and $22 million\nMassHousing Workforce, EOHLC, BAHGDT funding.\nSee application details:\nhttps://townofbarnstable.u: rdsCommittees/AffordableHousingGrowth/Applications_Under_Review/Winn-\nCompanies-Application-for- Vi 307-Main-St-Hyannis. pdf?tm=4/27/2024%208:17:45%20AM\nWinn is investing $1 million, borrowing $9 million and paying themselves $7 million for overhead/staff cost. Their total\ninvestment is less than zero. Regardless of what happens they walk with $5 - $6 million.\nWinn is getting $66 million in subsidies for delivering 149 bedrooms/120 units.\nI'm not sure what we are getting for our $2 million. | assume this is some sort of local participation deal.\nIt looks to me that we're paying subsidies of $440k per bedroom. That is twice the cost of every 3 bedroom in Hyannis\nwhich we could buy today with a permanent deed restriction.\nPast subsidies at I've heard us approving are in the range of $240k per bedroom. Jake Dewey recently got payments.\nin that ballpark.\nI've never heard of a $400k per bedroom subsidy.\nCan you verify these numbers. Am | missing something?\nBetty would you like to validate these numbers. She's concerned.\nThis deal will be presented at the Affordable Housing Trust Fund meeting May 3 at 9 AM.

Natalie Pittenger and | are leading\nthe data analysis and reporting effort on behalf of the\nCivic Association.\n| understand that you are responsible for pursuing\nzoning enforcement lawsuits directed to you by\nInspectional Services.\nWe're often told that this or that zoning isn't enforceable\nas written. And, the reason cited by Inspectional\nServices more often than not is failed enforcement\nactions. For example, I'm told that the Town lost a\nlawsuit in Osterville in 2012/13 which invalidated our\nzoning for parking restrictions. I'm told we can't enforce\nboat storage as written or driveway widths as written.\nWe would like to examine the failed enforcement actions\nby the Town that have curtailed our ability as a\ncommunity to enforce zoning as written.

We have not seen your response.\nWe are concerned that Winn Development's request for a Special Permit Hearing is an\nattempt to circumvent well established parking requirements downtown. It is our\nunderstanding that any zoning waivers in the Growth Incentive Zone (GIZ) require a\nregulatory agreement.\nAre you able to say why you have not yet required Winn to enter into a regulatory\nagreement? We believe that you owe the public an explanation.\nBelow, we identify additional issues that warrant answers.\nDetails of Winn's Effort to Get By With Tiny, Substandard Parking Spots\nThe number of complaints that have surfaced regarding the parking accommodation for\n307 Main Street is astonishing. Winn Development has proposed 122 spaces for their\n120 unit building, but only 50 of them are full sized (9'x20'). It is our understanding that 9\nfeet by 20 feet is the minimum sized parking space allowed by the town. (See Table 1\nand Diagram 1 below).\nThe other 72 spaces proposed by Winn are being sold as compact spaces. Of these 59\nare 8.5'x18' and 13 are 8.5'x16'. We don’t know many people who drive cars that will fit\ninto a 16' long parking space. A Ford F-150 pick-up is 19' 4\" feet long. A Toyota Camry is\n16 feet long. The Camry would need to touch the wall to fit. A Prius is 14 feet long and 5\nfeet wide. It will fit easily provided you don’t want to open the door to get out of your car.\nThe extra small spaces (8.5'x16') along the west wall of the building are accessible by\nway of a fire lane. It is our understanding that a fire lane must be an unobstructed 25\nfeet wide. Unfortunately, the lane Winn has selected is a shared WAY going back to the\n1900's. The residents of the Cape Cod Times building use it for access. So, ifa guest\nparks his/her full sized car in a small sized space and a tenant next door is unloading\ngroceries, there is little chance that a fire truck will be able to pass in an emergency.\n(See Diagram 2). It is our understanding that these parking spots should not be allowed\ngiven their proposed configuration.\nMost of the other 59 undersized parking spots are in the underbuilding garage. Here\nthere are at least 23 support columns crowding the parking spaces. The support\ncolumns aren't next to the undersized spots. The support columns are in the undersized\nspots, so the 8.5' width in the underground parking is for the most part a fiction. The\nactual size is likely 7.5’x15’.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1238","text_sha256":"12f0d304f1d16ef3d1c32366ecbffd31cd0f7895b286dc60464a29bab35799b2","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-15/0004-01.webp","sha256":"41f35915e2b05e24536e35d02ac2c25b8fa2922aefed736c35d6ace46b781e33","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":128274}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-15-0005","source":"TBR-0472-15","pdf_page":5,"printed_page":1239,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"We can't tell from the diagram provided if the parking spots are correctly oriented.\nTighter spaces require the spots to be angled. (See Diagram 3-4). Can you confirm that\nthe proposed configuration to appropriate?\nThere is also a problem with the parking on the side of Old Colony Road. The by-law is\nand has always been very clear about corner lots of land being required to apply the\nfront yard setbacks to each road the lot abuts, so a corner lot has two front yards with\nthe same setback on each of them. The front yard setback in this zone is 15 feet, so all\nof the parking spaces along Old Colony Road need to be moved back further into the\nproperty, this will also cause a significant reduction in the traffic isle behind them, which\nimpacts more spaces. WINN has proposed a 6-foot buffer without any shrubbery or\nfences to screen the view from the street. There are a number of additional undersized\nparking spots located by the main entrance off Old Colony Road. All these bays are\nshort by as much as 3 feet and none of them can be visible from the street.\nThe building has the required 5 accessible spots by the main entrance, but it is missing\nthe 1 required accessible van parking and all of the striping and spacing required to\nmake these spots truly accessible is not indicated in the diagram. (See Diagram 1 & 5).\nWinn’s Desire for a Special Permit for a Project Winn Contends Complies with\nZoning\nIt appears to us that Winn is applying for a \"Preemptive\" Special Permit of some kind. In\nan email dated Dec 19, 2023 retrieved from a previous records request, Attorney\nBrennan states: \"We comply with zoning but want a special permit in case we do not.\"\nThis is an extremely unorthodox request. Does Winn need a special permit or not?\nPlease advise. It would be an extremely imprudent use of taxpayer-funded town\nemployee time working on a Special Permit for Winn when Winn argues it fully complies\nwith Zoning. Barnstable taxpayers deserve better.\nWinn has argued that there are no dimensional requirements for regular parking\nspaces. Winn is claiming that the by-law does not reference specific sizes and because\nof this they need relief. We disagree. There are specific plans for various parking\nschemes incorporated in the by-law, which have always been required. Can you provide\nexamples of all prior decisions about parking dimensions? Specifically, we'd like to see\nguidance provided by the Town Attorney or the Building Commissioner on required\nparking site dimensions.\nWinn also states that Winn intends to assign parking. Can you tell us how Winn will\naccomplish this? Will it be based on tenure or car size? Who will get the spots with\nsupport columns?\nIt is our understanding that 5 Handicapped Spaces plus one Handicapped Van Space\nfor a total of 6 Handicapped Spaces will be required. Is there space for a handicapped\nvan?\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1239","text_sha256":"eaa06c316b806de668adaa39b9a20f22f8f33f64a744b8bef80930addab9a0aa","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-15/0005-01.webp","sha256":"d9438ae28f095986b55a5756ec49997d6f8313eb21462ddc8290ab1d9c894d6a","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":139496}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-15-0006","source":"TBR-0472-15","pdf_page":6,"printed_page":1240,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"Winn has proposed a 25’ wide Fire Lane.

We should be concerned about the Town\nbeing accused of having permitted an unsafe situation, and associated liability that will\nultimately fall on taxpayers. Wouldn't you agree?\nWinn’s Claims of “Special Circumstances” Give Rise to Additional Questions\nThe Winn memo referenced above argues that the Planning Board should grant the\nSpecial Permit in light of \"special circumstances\" of the \"zoning subdistrict and the\nProject itself\" that \"minimize, if not eliminate, residents dependent use of\nautomobiles....\".\nTo support its Special Permit case, Winn points first to the statement of intent of the new\nZoning provision: \"The Downtown Main Street District is intended to promote the\ncontinuation of a walkable, pedestrian-oriented downtown environment with continuous\nactive streetscape.\" This is nonsensical and contrary to the plain requirements in the\ncode on parking. There is no stated intention beyond the four corners of the established\nparking requirements for residential units in the zone to \"minimize\" or \"eliminate\" the\n“use of automobiles\". The Town's intention to have a \"walkable, pedestrian-oriented\"\ndowntown does not negate the code's express requirement for there to be specific\nparking spaces based on the intended use. If the Town had a goal of \"eliminating\" or\nfurther \"minimizing\" parking, it would not have adopted the specific parking\nrequirements.\nWinn next argues that Winn will have assigned parking spaces and cars not parking in\nthe assigned spaces will be towed. So what? It is extremely common for apartments\nand condos to have assigned parking. That has no bearing on parking requirements or\nreducing them.\nFinally, Winn argues that this property is proximate to the Regional Transit Authority and\nthat the location was selected by Winn to \"lessen, if not eliminate, the cost burden of\nautomobiles\" Even if it is true, hypothetically, that Winn has a private heartfelt objective\nto eliminate the use of cars at its developments, it needs to select land to develop\nhousing where there is not required parking for each residential unit. Its corporate goal\nto eliminate cars and thus parking does not overrule the Code's specific parking\nrequirements. And it doesn't turn Hyannis into the south end of Boston.

What are we missing when we read the\nplain language of the Code?\nWinn refers to several sections of the Zoning Code. Here are some for reference.\nFirst, 240.24.1.5.c.2.(b) - Parking standards.\n1. Applicability.\n(a) Parking is required based on the intended use of floor area within a building at\nconstruction permitting and not for the subsequent establishment, change, or expansion\nof any permitted use; or the renovation of any existing principal building.\n2. General.\n(a) Accessory parking must be provided as specified by Table 2 and is calculated as the\nsum of all required spaces, including any adjustment specified for on-site shared\nparking.\n(i) Commercial parking uses are exempt from Table 2.\n(b) Relief from the parking requirements of Table 2 requires a special permit. (THE\nTABLE REQUIRES 1 PER RESIDENCE)\n(c) In its discretion to approve or deny a special permit authorizing relief from the\nminimum parking requirements of Table 2, the Planning Board shall consider\nconditioning the special permit upon one or more of the following:\n(i) Elimination or reduction of existing curb cuts and driveway aprons.\n(ii) Establishment of a shared driveway or cross-access connection between abutting\nparking lots with a binding easement and joint maintenance agreement defining the\nresponsibilities of abutting property owners sharing access.\n3. Location.\n(a) Accessory parking spaces must be located on the same lot as the building they\nSupport and may be provided within a principal building or outbuilding or as surface\nparking.\n(b) Motor vehicle parking of any type is prohibited within the frontage area of a lot and\nany required landscape buffer.\nIs the Planning Board authorized to approve the substandard parking spots and are\nthey permitted to waive required landscape buffers?\nThe Winn narrative also refers to § 240-57. See: Circumstances warranting reduction of\nrequirements.

Characteristics of use invalidating normal methods of calculating parking demand.\nD. Supplementary parking provided off premises.\nIt is our understanding that the Planning Board can only provide relief for the number of\nrequired parking spots.

Could any resident offer money to the town in connection with a\nrequest for a zoning ruling? The optics are bad.\nHave you discussed this with the Town attorney and can you provide a copy of their\ndecision authorizing request for and the acceptance of this money from Winn.\nFurthermore, did the Town Attorney's Office make the decision to accept the allotted\nmoney from the developer? Did the Town Manager make this decision? On whose\nauthority was this decided? Is the Town Council not required to vote to authorize\ndecisions such as this? If not, it would seem to us that the town needs to implement a\nnew by-law to enact exactly this, that any monies granted to the town from any outside\nentity must do so only after an affirmative vote of the full town council. Has this been\ndiscussed?\nWe believe that Winn needs to go to the ZBA for relief.\nWe recall your Form-based Zoning code consultant, Utile, saying at a public meeting\nthat “...parking will occasionally be the tail that wags the dog...”. The unorthodox Winn\napproaches create myriad serious questions about which the community deserves\nstraight answers.

The\ndeveloper is cheating by a foot here and a foot there\neverywhere. As Headley Smith has said repeatedly, the math\ndoesn't work and he's right.\nThere is not enough parking. The underground parking is too\ntight. The parking along the west side of the building by the\nCape Cod Times building shouldn't be allowed, and the parking\nby Old Colony is 10 feet too close to the road.

Winn has filled for a special permit to waive\nparking, but what they really need are variances which are only\navailable through a regulatory agreement.\nThe whole point of form based zoning is that your project has\nto fit into a predefined box.

Winn has disrespected repeated requests to\nsave the old Hyannis Trust Company building. Winn has refused to downsize the\nproject to allow for more parking. Winn is facing abutter lawsuits.

The Island-\nwide leadership cannot simply throw up its hands, as if overwhelmed, and\nquit on its residents, by allowing more encroachment of commercial\nentities into residential zones, seemingly lacking the political will to enforce\nexisting bylaws and ordinances.

You will have made a Faustian deal that forever negatively impacts\nresidential zone integrity, personal property values, environmental protections, fresh\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1275","text_sha256":"96abb4cbeefa9135e794f4dedb2aef9957920e1ce14d53cc268d10e9cb959a0d","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-15/0041-01.webp","sha256":"5a09703b32205e0269fca9830d191d1413facd572d1eb41c7b0e9b1b267809d7","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":100896}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-15-0042","source":"TBR-0472-15","pdf_page":42,"printed_page":1276,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"water supplies, wastewater management, “Green Community” aspirations, and much\nmore.\nThere is an urgent need, for example, to reconcile rapidly expanding commercial\nneeds and interests of Martha’s Vineyard with the core value of preserving and\nprotecting its residential neighborhoods. The Island-wide leadership cannot simply\nthrow up its hands, as if overwhelmed, and quit on its residents, by allowing more\nencroachment of commercial entities into residential zones, seemingly lacking the\npolitical will to enforce existing bylaws and ordinances. This will come at the\nenormous compounded expense of an already ecologically fragile Island.\nMy mother taught me to “clean in front of your own doorstep first, and the whole\nneighborhood will be clean.” A slow drive around the down Island residential\nneighborhoods today, while the trees are still leafless, reveals commercial vehicle\ndensity, ominous looking sheds, appalling blight, and contaminating conditions at\nnearly every turn. There appear to be little to no zoning bylaws enforcement at this\ntime. If town building inspectors and board of health agents are inundated, then\nprovide adequate resources for consistent and proper enforcement.\nThere is an over-saturation of commercial vehicles and equipment on Martha's\nVineyard. The ratio and number of light and heavy commercial vehicle circulation has\nrisen to an alarming all-time high. | learned recently that there are now over 1,300\nproperty management and related businesses on the Island in 2024. Meanwhile,\nthere are no full-time veterinarians. And, the longstanding affordable housing crisis\nmoves along barely dented, let alone solved. This is astonishing and telling. Is this\nwhat we value?\nWorking together, town leaders must develop a short and long term plan that allows\nfor commercial businesses to thrive outside of residential zones, including more\ndesignated space for commercial vehicle parking, equipment and material storage.\nWe must preserve the beauty and vitality of our nationally and internationally admired\nIsland. Residential areas should not be put in the position of accommodating and\nsacrificing lovely, peaceful, high-value neighborhoods for out-of-compliance\nbusinesses and blighted properties.\nUsing commercial businesses to renovate and maintain our Island hospital, schools,\ncommunity services, and YMCA are no-brainers. Those improvements are not at\nissue. There must be a more reasonable balance or ratio between renovating and\nbuilding new homes, which is good for business, and building more much-needed\naffordable housing for young families, employer staff, and senior citizens.\nIt is critical that we review where the Island was 20 years ago and where it is today.\nThe most recent master plans are a good place to start. Further, we must partner\ntogether as Island municipalities on issues that have “high stakes” regional impact\nsuch as adequate fresh water supplies, wastewater management, land use,\naffordable housing, commercial vehicle circulation, air and noise pollution, chemical\nfertilizers and pesticides, blight and unsafe property management, mining expansion,\nand so on.

They are a constructive\nmeans to make progress, for the Council's further consideration, on important issues\nand in a way that brings public awareness and visibility to them, with comparable\nawareness and access for all.\nThe current proposal seeks to do public business in the way the Town Code intends:\ndefined committee scopes, communicated to the Council and the public to enable\nparticipation by all at the same time and in the same way, with a \"complete by\" date\nfor the work, followed by Council deliberation of any recommendations.\nThe last several ad hoc subcommittees departed from this required process in nearly\nall ways. It gave business interests earlier and more significant input opportunities\nthan residents. This is not a point of view: it is evidenced by facts recorded in minutes\nand on video.\nGiven some misstatements of facts about them by Councilor Levesque at the last\nmeeting (perhaps attributable to the passage of time as this went on for years), | set\nforward facts from Town records and videos below. The reason for sharing this\ncommittee history is to illustrate the contrast in the way the Town Council had done\nbusiness and the way it is now proposing to do business. The way it had done\nbusiness caused hundreds of residents to petition for a Resident Zoning Advisory\nCommittee to level the uneven playing field between business interests and residents\nthat became institutionalized.

The Subcommittee chair welcomed a representative of\nthe builders, realtors, chamber and HAC to present a proposed ordinance\nand interact with the committee over the course of a meeting (no 3 minute\nlimit like that given to residents). Indeed, when residents and Civic\nAssociations presented a model ordinance on a prior matter in public, the\nsame leaders ridiculed them for doing so on the public record.

Here\nare some of my initial thoughts based on our site walk that might be\nhelpful to you as you start to think about your bourgeoning project:\n1. The bogs appear (from afar) to have succeeded to a forested red\nmaple swamp. Eric S. and | observed one remnant earthen berm,\nbut the associated water control structure had been removed long\nago. Given the current condition of the bogs and proximity to head\nof tide, I’m not sure if there is a need to intervene there. It may all\nbe salt marsh one day (and that’s ok). That being said it might be\nworth it to conduct a recon to identify other areas of berms and\nwater control structures. Those structures and berms could be\nremoved to allow unimpeded access by the tides over time. It's\nunclear how Stewart's Creek has been manipulated in that reach\nof the system (the early aerials and topo maps don’t provide\nsignificant help in determining a baseline condition), but the\nchannel appears to be straightened, over-widened and shallow.\nIt's also pushed up against the western valley wall (golf course\nside), which isn’t typical geomorphology, especially when we see a\nstraight channel reach associated with it.\n2. Both Stewart's and Joshua’s Creek have culverted sections from\ntheir headwater ponds under W. Main Street and Scudder Ave.\nThese would be incredibly expensive to daylight. As | mentioned, it\nwould be worth speaking with Brad Chase, who is with MA\nDivision of Marine Fisheries. He would be able to provide (or point\nto) some historical fisheries resources, discuss the current state of\nthe resource, and what would potentially need to be done to\nimprove it (if anything). He lives in Harwich, so he might even be\nwilling to swing by at some point.\n3. Visually, it's unclear if the southern end of the peninsula has been\nfilled. Eric S. mentioned there had been some on site soil sampling\nconducted which could help answer that question. Even if there\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1311 :","text_sha256":"79d1df40871e6bc69b056362938d602681c24e563a8e03d384925a9f6ba8c042","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-15/0077-01.webp","sha256":"17dac54ed1648ed1ed5fdfafc10e9c1380c9488cfad31ec3b62501f28cb0a95e","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":109510}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-15-0078","source":"TBR-0472-15","pdf_page":78,"printed_page":1312,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"was fill placed here, it would be incredibly expensive (and possibly\ncost-prohibitive) to remove.\n4.

How was it designed? What\nconstraints are present (e.g., flood risk to low-lying infrastructure)\nthat may have impacted the ability of the Corps to fully restore tidal\nexchange? The surrounding upland areas are heavily developed,\nand | imagine there might be a flood risk if no restriction was\npresent.\nRelative to DER, | mentioned that this project isn’t quite ready for “prime\ntime” yet. Below are some general suggestions that will help you move\nyour ideas into a more formal project:\n41. The issues within the estuary/bog/peninsula need to be clearly\nunderstood. There appears to be something wrong, but what is it?\nDo you have data or evidence to support it? Do you need more\ninformation? Think about symptoms vs. cause. You should be\nfocusing more on the cause.\n2. Once you understand what's wrong, you can more clearly define\nthe initial project scope. What are the key (and feasible) changes\nyou can undertake to create real change?\n3. A project sponsor needs to be defined. That could be the Town,\nNGO, etc. The sponsor needs to be engaged and supportive.\n4. All landowners within the project area of impact (at least the ones\nthat are known) should be identified and you'll need to gain their\nsupport. In some cases, if work is to occur on their property, you'll\nneed their signature on permit applications.\nGood luck, and let me know if you have any questions!\nEric C.

Lots of great information.\nBetty\nOn Sat, Jul 20, 2024 at 10:43 AM heather hunt < ES Wr Otg:\nMy public comments mention the need for provisions to prevent Town Council\nleadership overreach beyond what is assigned to the President and Vice President.\nThis was rooted in watching prior leadership act as if there was mayoral authority\nassociated with the roles. This morning, someone sent me some information that\nputs a really fine point on the need for code clarity to prevent assumed authorities\nand abuse of authority. This pertains to HCA but that is not my point - the point of\nthis is leadership\noverreach and the real need to contain that under the current form of government.\nThat is, minutes and agendas show the Town Council prior actions to authorize the\nTown Manager to negotiate HCAs was limited to authorizing the Town Manager.\nFirst, in asking for such authority, the Town Manager reported in writing that\n“Management and Town Council leadership have been closely engaged with VW on\nthese subjects..\", these subjects being all things related to the proposals.

This is how he applied. He\ndidn't apply to represent Hyannis residents. He applied to represent business and\nproperty interests.\nAt the time Mr. Webb applied there was no other business or property owner listed so\nthat position was open. There was no conflict.\nIt appears that Mr. Webb was designated as a Hyannis resident in error. | wrote to\nyou to ask whether or not you had discussed correcting this error with Mr. Mendez\nand Ms. Clark.\nThat's all. It was a simple question.\n| would prefer that my interview not be spoiled by procedural issues. I'd prefer to know\nthat there is in fact a vacancy for a Hyannis resident.

On\nSundays, we often found ourselves strolling along Main Street and decided to make it our home.\nWe've observed the push and pull of development in this area, and I've researched and\npublished numerous articles on the history of Hyannis Main Street. | have a particular interest\nin preserving and restoring the old Hyannis Trust Company building as a Welcome Center for\nfuture guests to our community.\nAs part of my preparations for the appeal of the Certificate of Appropriateness to demolish the\nold Hyannis Trust Company building, | prepared and presented a 30-page design brief on Main\nStreet design guidelines. (See attached). Our guidelines for the historic District have changed\nover the years to allow more flexibility for business owners, property owners, and builders. This\nflexibility has opened the door to profiteering and very public misunderstandings as to the\nintent of the guidelines.

This morning | saw that late\non the last business day, Friday December 16, 2022, the Commission made a draft Agreement\navailable to the public. The public (even the very diligent public who check for your issuances every\nbusiness day morning...) was given just two (2) business days to provide written or verbal comments\non this important and dense document, which together with exhibits total approximately 500 pages.\nUnderstanding as you do that many people work, the Commission's issuance on Friday and Tuesday\nhearing and comment schedule effectively affords working people of Cape Cod one (1) evening,\nMonday night, to read and digest the issuance and to prepare comments. That is unreasonable. |, for\nexample, am left to choose between attending to a prior family medical commitment after work on\nMonday or preparing feedback. The Commission's need for high speed when it comes to hearing from\nthe public makes me choose between the two. What is your objective in squeezing the public in that\nway? Friends of mine who work extremely long shifts in the medical profession are denied a comment\nopportunity - unless they choose to forego sleep. What is your point in jamming hard working people\nthis way? This calendar for comment on a matter of public business is ridiculous.\nRespectfully, providing citizens two (2) business days denies residents the process | hope the\nCommission believes we are due. This incredible and unnecessary super fast track denies the\nCommission the benefit of serious public review and thoughtful feedback that | hope the Commission\nbelieves important to its own deliberations and decision-making. In the quickest scroll of your draft\nhere before | and the rest of the world head to work, | see errors of fact and inconsistencies. Do you\nreally not want to hear those kinds of things to better your final product from those residents willing\nto take the time to read and comment?

If you are talking\nat any meeting even a fraction as much as the Council is talking, it distorts the\npurpose of the council meeting. It is for them to talk to each other. | have said to a\nnumber of people in the past few months | feel the Council here over many years has\nbeen trained to be passive. If | was on the Council | would ask you to answer\nquestions in a pointed succinct way in 10 minutes or less and if you cannot, to return\nto the next meeting with more succinct prepared answers. Second, it would be so\nhelpful if you gave a heads up on what is coming down the pike - for example, like\ndetails of the form based code in a way that is understandable to lay persons when\nthe business interests were given access to the Town's consultant. So much going on\nand the public generally gets word when it is time for a 1st read. That's late. Foresight\non big issues matters.\nOn the responsiveness, | have a bankers box.

It has been\ndeveloped with general guidance from the Cape Cod\nCommission accordin, egul\ncific needs and circumstances.\nAfter its local adoption, a Town can choose to submit\nthe LCP to the Cape Cod Commission for certification\nof the LP's consistency with the Regional Policy\nPlan. Potential benefits of Cape Cod Commission LCP\ncertification include: the ability for the Town to enter\ninto Development Agreements as a type of land use\npermitting; prioritization for planning technical assistanc\nand the establishment of the LCP as review criteria for\nistricts of Critical Planning Concern and Developments\nofRegional Impact.

A prior draft LCP was completed in 1997 but was\nnever brought to Town Meeting. The development of\nthis LCP started in earnest with the 2018 Brewster Vision\nPian. The Vision Plan process commenced in 2017, serves\nas a foundation for the LCP, and includes goals and\nactions for eight key issue areas (called ‘Building Blocks’)\nThe LCP is structured along the same lines as the Vision\nPlan. It includes a Vision Statement and the eight Building\nBlocks: Community Character, Water Resources, Open\nSpace, Housing, Coastal Management, Local Economy,\nGovernance, and Community Infrastructure. The goals\nfor each of these Building Blocks remain similar to those\nstated in the Vision Pian, with some modifications made\nto recognize changing circumstances and conditions\nin Brewster and beyond, and the goal statements\nand policies in the Cape Cod Regional Policy Plan\nthp Cape Cod Commission, that the LCP be updated\nto remain consistent with updates to the Regional\nPolicy Plan, and that the Town's land use by-laws and\nregulations be consistent with the LCP.

Instead, it is one integrated system of life upon\nwhich humans depend and in which destructive activities have far-reaching and cascading negative\nimpacts, system wide. Supporting this movement and aligning local law and policy with the\nunderstanding that Nature must be respected and protected as an entity with rights will assist in\nsecuring our human right to a clean environment. That right is already established for Falmouth\nresidents by our state constitution, but it is not yet effectuated by our laws and policies.\nFalmouth owes its very existence to its unique natural setting: the south- western tip of Cape Cod,\nwhere a natural aquifer supplies fresh water, the Gulf Stream moderates the climate, and Nature\nprovides sustenance and spiritual rejuvenation. The fifty square miles of sandy beaches, coves and\ninlets, vernal pools, rivers, creeks, natural bogs, ponds, pine and oak forests, and grasslands have\nsupported human communities for time immemorial. This rich environment supports a diverse\nnatural community of animal and plant life: migratory and local bird and fish species, coyote, deer,\nbobcats, racoons, turtles, amphibians, horseshoe crabs, insects, clams, pine and oak scrub\nforests.\nThe first humans to be at home in this land were the Wampanoag and Nauset peoples, who have\nlived on this land for more than 10,000 years. We hereby acknowledge and honor these First\nPeoples, their cultures, and their stewardship of this land.\nThe townspeople are deeply attached to this life-giving environment. Their intimate connection with\nNature is a defining characteristic of this community, where residents work collaboratively to\nprotect the natural environment which sustains us and attracts our visitors. There are more than\n2000 acres of protected conservation land - wetlands, uplands and farms - in Falmouth, managed\nby the Town, The 300 Committee Land Trust, Salt Pond Area Bird Sanctuaries and others. Major\nsuccesses include the restorations of the Coonamessett and Childs Rivers, grasslands, vernal\npools, and other ecosystems; these projects have received widespread acknowledgment for their\nnature-based solutions that restored the environment, increased biodiversity, and increased\ncommunity resilience to climate disruption.\nFalmouth’s location and abundant natural life and its commitment to environmental stewardship\nhave made it a hub for environmental study. The community includes the Woods Hole\nOceanographic Institution, Marine Biological Laboratory, Woodwell Climate Research Center, Sea\nEducation Association, U.S. Geological Survey, and National Marine Fisheries Services — all world-\nrenowned research and educational institutions.\nToday, despite this extensive environmental work, the community experiences a deep sense of\nsorrow and frustration as we witness the loss of its treasured natural environment. The herring\npopulation has been decimated. Right whales are fast disappearing and are federally listed as\nendangered. Shorebirds, turtles, fish, birds of prey, mammals, insects, and plants are included\namong the forty-one Cape Cod species that the state now lists as endangered, threatened or of\nspecial concern. Habitats are being fragmented and destroyed, and the waters are being polluted\nby devastating land development, often undertaken without adequate consideration of\nenvironmental impacts. Nitrogen levels in the town’s waters already exceed state standards, which\n2\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1440","text_sha256":"ac68bb97925214876e0ca48215bf05a1fb882ad278387bcc1423314178fc6125","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-17/0039-01.webp","sha256":"032c7676e795e84daa962ba61a747fb038110ae144f224a5b5cd9f611ec24e69","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":151524}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-17-0040","source":"TBR-0472-17","pdf_page":40,"printed_page":1441,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"means that aquatic ecosystems and species will continue to decline unless water quality is\nadequately addressed.\nHowever, land development continues because Falmouth needs more affordable and workforce\nhousing to serve the community’s diverse economic needs of our community. This need must be\nequitably weighed against adverse impacts upon the environment and the services it provides.\nThese include, among others, the role of the forests, grasslands and wetlands in both mitigating\nnitrogen inputs to the groundwater and capturing and storing carbon.\nAlthough the Massachusetts state constitution establishes in Article 97 that all the state’s people\nhave a right to a clean environment, the nation’s environmental laws have proven inadequate to\neffectuate this right. They regulate human use of the environment by metering pollution and\ncurtailing some adverse impacts of destructive human activities; but they neither prohibit nor\nsufficiently limit them. These fifty-year old federal laws reflect neither the extremity of the current\nenvironmental crisis, nor the current scientific understanding of the interrelated planetary systems\nthat support all life, nor the ancient understanding that we are part of Nature, nor the spiritual belief\nthat life on Earth must be protected as a divine creation.\nBecause current laws and policies do not and cannot adequately protect the environment, nations,\nstates, and communities, world-wide are calling for new laws and policies, based on eco-centric\nparadigms that will better protect Nature, including recognition of Nature’s right to exist, persist,\nnaturally regenerate, and be restored. In response, Rights of Nature enactments have been\nformally adopted by nations, states, tribal governments, provinces, cities, and towns; and they have\nbeen recognized and enforced by courts in many countries.\nRapidly increasing support for recognition of Nature’s Rights has also come from institutions,\nreligious groups, and political leaders. The United Nation’s Harmony with Nature Program has\nannually hosted an Earth Day Dialogue, produced annual reports on holistic, sustainable\ndevelopment in Harmony with Nature, and promoted the shift to Earth-centered laws and policies,\nparticularly those recognizing the Rights of Nature. In 2015, Pope Francis called on all humanity to\nprotect our “common home” in his Encyclical Letter “Laudato Si.” In 2021, the US United Church of\nChrist adopted a Rights of Nature resolution.\nAcross the United States, more than eighty local and tribal governments have adopted laws,\nresolutions, and other enactments recognizing the Rights of Nature. Among them is the April 2023\nenactment of the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribal Council declaring a State of Emergency for the\nRights of Nature of the Cape Cod herring.\nRights of Nature enactments enhance protections for rivers, lakes, particular ecosystems or natural\ncommunities, as well as for specific species. They take various forms, including treaties,\nconstitutional provisions, statutory laws, administrative policies, declarations, or resolutions; but\nall are intended to enhance protection for the environment on which we and all life depend.\nRecognition of Nature Rights can, likewise, help Falmouth protect its cherished natural\nenvironment.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1441","text_sha256":"d1ed11210cac1c33780f5ab13cf374f99f8bfebd18ccdf6b2b6e842bb5ad7657","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-17/0040-01.webp","sha256":"c12522bcd9a5d22e17a127dade59a14151dd6169c3e88b4a0997a698ae65f199","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":135428}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-17-0041","source":"TBR-0472-17","pdf_page":41,"printed_page":1442,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"From: Kris Clark (pss\nSent: Friday, August 29, 2025 4:08 PM\nTo: FOIA Mailbox\nSubject: Fwd: HAC/Cullum video for entertainment\n-- Forwarded Message --------\nSubject: HAC/Cullum video for entertainment\nDate:Wed, 10 Apr 2024 12:34:50 -0400\nFrom:heather hunt\nTo:Kris Clark\nhttps://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#search/betty/F MfcgzGxSbpcQrCBgStvWJgcvcKRV\nPdG?projector=1\nCullum is especially distasteful around minute 30 and then again 40 onward.

It was\nthen on two Planning Board agendas. No public showed up at either meeting. No\nmember of either committee said why is no one here? What was done to get public\ninput? Has it been presented to civic associations? Should we do something?\n| sent the Planning Department 2 pages of public comment before the Housing\nCommittee. | said | could not be there, and please record it as if | was. When | later\nwatched and saw no mention, | followed up. The staff reply was we didn't know you\nmeant it for the Housing Committee. They said it would be sent to the Planning\nBoard. The only mention of any public comment at the Planning Board was my\nsubsequent verbal request for maps to accompany land use changes, which the\nPlanning Board Chair said that was up to the LCP.\nIn the April 25th Town Manager Report, Mark Ells said public comment on the HPP\nwould be gathered and posted. That did not happen. Was there really no verbal or\nwritten comment? If | was literally the only person to send in comments, is that not a\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1444","text_sha256":"a69ac73ad230c7ec9b41c4569674f9cd23274ecfb1c62b7ec5a664635f49274c","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-17/0043-01.webp","sha256":"8c9711d74754444d597d8c7907968b9f83e2e71ed9cfb47b4df00ba01fa54903","width":1020,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,612.0,792.0],"bytes":106026}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-17-0044","source":"TBR-0472-17","pdf_page":44,"printed_page":1445,"width_points":613.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"flag that there is a problem with public awareness efforts?

These documents sit on the\ntown website page 3 layers deep, easily available to those who know to look,\nand how to look. That's almost no one.\nSimilarly, the LCP draft chapters on land use and housing were put out for\ncomment with no public presentation of their substance. The turnout out was\nless than 1/2 of 1%, and those few people a) didn't hear substance and b) were\nproactively discouraged from discussing their views but rather expressing\nthemselves via dots on a board.\n2. Maps with Proposed Land Use Changes. On Monday, | asked the Planning\nDepartment for maps that correspond with the land use changes in the HPP. Staff\nsaid they would check in with the LCP leadership about maps. The Planning Board\nChair's verbal response to the map request was to say the HPP sets out strategies\nand the LCP would determine the locations of zoning changes. Well, the LCP already\nput out land use and housing chapters for feedback without maps (and without any\nsubstantive presentation at village meetings) and since April has ignored requests for\nmaps corresponding to proposed land use changes\nIt is unreasonable and pointless to ask for public comment on land use changes\nwithout maps. Withholding maps is not new. The first time | tracked a zoning issue\nhere it as a former Councilor leading a land use change proposal at an ad hoc\ncommittee for ~6 months. He withheld maps until the very last meeting. The maps\nshowed he owned land where the land use changes - what's called the strategy, now\n- were being proposed. This separating of land use change proposals and\nmaps/locations is a learned tactic to minimize reactions, in my view....\n| redlined the prior HPP draft and the revised version issued for comment. The\nPlanning Dept scrubbed out reference to changing zoning 1/2 mile around certain\nvillages - which language Ells was asked about last year and met with a really\nvigorous denial of any such proposal. That's on video. In this version issued for\ncomment, the village names are gone as is the reference to 1/2 mile circumference\naround them where the prior draft said change zoning here.\nEarlier records, back in 2022, show the Planning Department telling the consultant it\n\"had a lot of concern with the wording of the Goals and Strategies being public facing\nin the current format.\" The land use change was not a concern - being direct with the\npublic was.\nSo today, we have a scrubbed document to mitigate public reaction and no maps.\nHerschler PRR #2025-0472 1445","text_sha256":"81cbdb52d152f0f5f92f58be140a8df5694d87da5497d2a88d91bc08339090e9","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-17/0044-01.webp","sha256":"64878cb3cefbd49a31935a5cdb48c7bdd7465f1bbd8ecd73f019f9ffd359eccb","width":1022,"height":1320,"crop_points":[0,0,613.0,792.0],"bytes":143592}]},{"id":"TBR-0472-17-0045","source":"TBR-0472-17","pdf_page":45,"printed_page":1446,"width_points":612.0,"height_points":792.0,"text":"See images below that show the editing out of the specific zoning change proposals\nthat Mark Ells publicly and repeatedly denied existed when asked about the prior\ndraft.\nCould you consider asking that draft land use change proposals be\naccompanied by maps - as a matter of course and before public comment?\n3.

We won two very high-profile elections rejecting\ncable landings in Centerville and Osterville and defeating unchecked\ndevelopment town-wide. Voters dismissed the back-room politics of the Levesque\nera and supported candidates they felt were able to represent the best interests\nof the community. Beyond these broad brush strokes what are the interests of the\ncommunity? What are our priorities, and can we establish milestones to measure\nour success in achieving them? How much damage needs to be undone? And\nhow do we undo it? What are our next steps? The following is a compilation of\nconversations, comments, and communications I've participated in over the last\nseveral years. They provide a sense of the pulse of the community our new\ncouncilors have been elected to represent. Some of these notions are very\nspecific and many will be Hyannis-centric. Some are actionable and symbolic.\nSome address the need to re-tool administrative structure and processes\ndowntown. All are hopeful (and, possibly a little naive). I'd like to see several new\ncouncilors take a trip to Boston to meet with Healey on the topic of the cable\nlandings and affordable housing. Let's stop screwing around and go right to the\ntop to see where we stand. We've all had a lot of conversations about the\nAppointments Committee. Since the Boards and Committees are at the center of\nthe Town's work, it would be interesting to know who will take the helm of this\ncommittee and make the necessary administrative reforms we all expect.\nPlanning & Development is problematic. We've talked about the need for a\ncertified housing production plan. And we need to develop a plan to regulate\nSTRs especially in Hyannis and Centerville where the highest concentrations of\nzombie homes reside. It is unclear whether or not these goals can be\naccomplished given current staffing. At a minimum we really do need to hire a\nhousing coordinator as that post as been vacant for some time. It is unclear who\nis blocking a public discussion on STR regulations. It seems like almost everyone\nhas their hand in this pot. Can the Council fix this without Planning and\nDevelopment's help? Only time will tell. Hyannis water issues surfaced early in\nthe election. | can state unequivocally that Hyannis needs to have elected Water\nCommissioners. Every other village controls their own water. The fact that\nHyannis doesn’t is symbolic of our occupation by business interests. | don’t know\nif installing elected water commissioners requires a Charter change or if the\nCouncil can vote to order an election of water commissioners. But, at a minimum\nwe need to replace the luxury condo salesman who chairs Hyannis Water with\nsomeone with expertise in hydrology. Furthermore, we need to have a meaningful\ndiscussion on our true water capacity. Business interests have long insisted that\nthere is plenty of water, but we’ve never had a meaningful discussion about the\ncost of pumping and processing the water for consumption.

From the initial stages of\npreparing this plan the Town Council has been directly\ninvolved in the process specifically because the Town\nCouncil will need to approve the Local Comprehensive\nPlan for it to receive certification from the Cape Cod\nCommission. The Local Comprehensive Planning\nCommittee serve the Town Council in the preparation of a\ndraft Local Comprehensive Plan and our staff provides\nsupport in their efforts. Our staff has followed the outline\nprovided by the Cape Cod Commission in their efforts to\nsupport the Local Comprehensive Planning Committee in\nthe process of complying with the requirements of the\nCape Cod Commission.\nRecently, it was brought to my attention by a Town\nCouncilor that they felt that the LCPC did not allow for\nadequate public comment at one of the LCPC meetings.\n| asked that the Town Council President, the Chair of the\nLCPC, and the Director of Planning meeting to discuss\nthis concern. To my knowledge they did meet.\nSubsequently, the President of the Town Council\ncommented on the limited number of residents that\nattended one of the community meetings on a section of\nthe draft LCP. The combination of these two comments\nprompted me to ask during last Tuesday’s agenda\nmeeting and then again at Town Council on Thursday as\nto whether the Town Council is satisfied with public input\ninto the development of the draft LCPC.\nMy statement at Town Council was to prompt dialogue\nbetween Town Council and the LCPC to address any\nconcerns regarding public input into this process and\npreparation of a draft document. | do not direct the\nLCPC. The LCPC serve the Town Council and are\npreparing the draft LCP for Town Council. Upon receiving\nthe comments above | requested through the Town\nCouncil President that a review of the public comment\nprocess be undertaken to avoid the preparation of a draft\ndocument that does not satisfy the expectation of Town\nCouncil. My staff and | offer our support toward this end.\nRespecttully,\nMark Ells\nBarnstable Town Manager\nFrom: heather hunt 4 S\nSent: Friday, May 3, 2024 8:44 AM\nTo: Ells, Mark <Mark.Ells@town.barnstable.ma.us>\nCc: Felicia Penn < >\n— LCP process\nGood morning Mark.\n| appreciated your words to the Council to\nspeak up about the LCP and or its process\nnow rather than waiting until the\ndocument, and the public, get to the\nCouncil later.\nWhat | did not understand was the\ndisclaimer of responsibility - the 'I\nappointed the Committee and then | step\naway and It's yours.'\nThe Department that designed the\nprocess and executes the process reports\nto you. It's yours.\nThe ad for these meetings was false\nadvertising/bait and switch. The ads put\nout by your administration said Town\nStaff...invites you to a discussion....each\nmeeting will include a presentation with an\noverview of the draft chapters followed by\nan open house.\nThere was zero overview of any chapter.\nThe presentation was only about process -\nhow much listening has been going on and\n\"meeting people where they are\" buzz\nwords (all 10 of them in the case of\nHyannis). When the public and\neven Councilors tried to say something, it\nwas go get a 3x3 and a dot. Because the\nLibrary rather than the Town recorded the\nOsterville meeting, | was able to rewatch\nit. It was a stickies drumbeat (~16\nmentions). People literally said we want to\nuse our voices, not dots. The public refrain\nafter was that the process was designed\nfor grade schoolers. Wait now for this\nnon-substance followed by green v. red to\nbe trotted out to schools or other\naudiences to get more green than red\ndots....\nOn land use, there were no maps to show\nthe proposed areas of change. When |\nasked, Jenkins and Northcross sort of\ntripped over each other saying oh ya we\nhave them they're not up but will be.\nWhat, after the land use comment period?\n(I've seen this strategy before. Talk use\nand hold back maps. Crocker did exactly\nthat for months and months at the outset\nof the Zoning and Reg Subcommittee\nwhen he proposed to change zoning\nwhere he owned land - months of use talk\nand sprung the maps at the very last\nmeeting and said oh we've had such a\nlong process. One former Councilor with\nintegrity called foul.) Why were maps not\nput out with requests for feedback on land\nuse change proposals? You tell me. You\nactually are, respectfully, responsible for\nhow this is set up and playing out.\n| may have an unusual sensitivity to public\ninput processes having been an official in\na couple of states.

It was a challenge because so much of\nthe process happened in that ad hoc\nCommittee that did not put out meeting\nnotices, agendas or minutes. Awareness\nwas limited for years actually. We put the\nattached together as it seemed to be a\nreally big change, we recalled the\nconsultant saying you needed\nresident buy-in up front, and the resident\nengagement seemed pretty thin. Very few\npeople were at the few\nengagement opportunities, and only about\na dozen public questions went to Planning.\n| was probably 1/3 of those trying to\nunderstand It and the parking reductions.\nIn any case, it's not so clear that the people\nof Hyannis had the benefit of real\nawareness about this, and then it was\ndone. | thought it useful to pass this along\nto you for information. | include only the\nprocess pieces since that's what you spoke\nto and struck other concerns to keep it on\npoint to your remarks. Hope it is helpful to\nyou.\nHave a good weekend.\nHeather Hunt\nEXCERPT Zoning August\n2021.pdf\n1.1 MB\nLOOK & DENSITY (FORM-BASED) ZONING\nProposal for downtown Hyannis\n= Zone looks, not property use\n* Increase density, height\n= Reduce required parking\nTimeline:\n= 2019-2021 Planning Department works proposal with business interests through\nself-selected Economic Development Task Force\n= July 2021 Start the public process\nRR In 2018, Realtor Lobby urged Town to move to form-based zoning\nIn 2020, Realtor Lobby funded public officials’ training about it.\nForm-Based Zoning Code Follows Planning Dept Routine: |** business interests.

We\ngenuinely appreciate the effort and hard work you are putting in to make sure that the public\nis included in the process at this stage even if, as you may know, that wasn’t always the case.\nAs OVA meetings are monthly, we have had only one OVA meeting since the September 12th\nLCP meeting. While we did have some discussion at our October meeting on the 1st, the next\nOVA meeting is not until November 12th due to Election Day falling on the first Tuesday of the\nmonth. Village input was not limited to a sole meeting however, as the village is well aware of\nthe changes and plans created by the Cape Cod Commission (CCC) without our input and\nechoed in Town of Barnstable (TOB) proposals on housing, zoning and\ndevelopment. We basically have been talking generally about these\nfor several months.\nThe challenge is that the concerns and comments are so numerous\nand detailed that it is a daunting task to summarize them properly and\nmove them through our internal processes for voting and submission\nto you and the town. As our Board is comprised entirely of volunteers, scheduling,\ntravel and professional conflicts do not always allow for timely summaries of complex\nissues. As today is the deadline, we did want you to be aware that we indeed have much to\nsay but just did not have enough time to present it formally to you at this time. We hope to\nsend it to you after our next monthly meeting at the latest.\nWhile not speaking on behalf of the Board, in my personal opinion, it\nis obvious there are tremendous concerns and objections throughout\nthe village for both the CCC and TOB versions of proposed housing approaches,\nchanges to single family zoning, and potential plans for redevelopment of Osterville.\nFor example, in my ten years of service on the OVA, not once has a resident of Osterville ever\ncomplained about single family zoning. The top request in the Town’s own housing survey\nwas for more single-family homes, so the idea that current zoning is “a burden\" is\nludicrous. It is also disappointing when anyone who likes “single-family zoning”\nis painted as anti-housing, when these folks seem to be simply trying\nto preserve the neighborhood character they know and love.\nSingle-family zoning and the appeals process via the Zoning Board\nhas combined with other factors has helped create a desirable\ncommunity where | have lived my whole life. In general, it is hard for\nme to identify any community desire to change that with broad policy\nrevisions. | noted many objections to the easing of checks and balances for\ndevelopers. Those processes are in place so communities are notified about any pending\nchanges to their neighborhoods and can react if needed.\nMy concern is that CCC plans and TOB drafts seem to nearly eliminate the current way of\ndoing things in favor of streamlining the development process into a “free-for-all” as long as it\nresults in more housing for more people. No one in our village appears to be against housing,\nbut rather desires to maintain the current controlled approach which has worked fine for\n2\ndecades. Let the community play a role in its own future versus a policy that allows\ndevelopers to decide what is best for us.\nIn my view, the people of Osterville are trying to preserve and protect their way of life by\nkeeping zoning and development regulations in place as we work towards finding solutions\nthat work for everyone...those who may benefit, and those who call this home already.\nIt has been mentioned that the companies hired by the CCC to assist them with design\nguidelines were from Arkansas, Georgia and Philadelphia. My feeling is the reason that\npeople love New England so much is because it is unique, and doesn’t look like most of the\nrest of the USA. The last thing | want to see is homogenized plans that\nmimic parts of the country that are nothing like Cape Cod.\n| note that villagers are mystified by the CCC’s flawed process of favoring “stakeholders”\ninput over residents and taxpayers. A lot of those folks were getting paid to take part in CCC\nplanning meetings while the general public seemed almost completely left out. These plans\nthen wound up being Barnstable’s plans too but it seems many are grateful that individual\nsub-committees have been created to further examine each issue with a mix of Councilors\nand residents. This is a welcome change.\nOne comment | heard in LCP meetings was that the final results will be “different than\nperceived.” This sentiment is welcome but sadly irrelevant unless the Zoning and Housing\nDrafts are corrected to match the very real concerns of the public. It’s the paper that will\nmatter when push comes to shove, not what was said \"in passing\" to appease the\npublic. These documents must reflect the views of residents and the Future Land Use Maps\nmust also do the same.\nIn conclusion, formal OVA comments are pending and those above are my own brief\nsynopsis of many thoughts and opinions versus a Board document. The OVA version will\naddress the issues, identify problems, in some cases suggest solutions, and be submitted for\napproval by our Board before being forwarded. | do know that the OVA\nappreciates the opportunity to share the opinions we have gathered\nby cultivating community awareness and bringing all these issues into\nthe limelight for discussion in our village.\nAs an individual, | recognize your efforts and welcoming approach and\n| am cautiously optimistic you actually listen and care. Your job is\nincredibly challenging and | don’t mean to be negative in any way but\nrather just wanted share a bit of what | know to this point with hope\nthat it may help us both short and long term. Thank you for your\n3\npatience and please know we all appreciate your team approach here\nin our mutual effort to produce the best results for everyone.\nBest regards always,\nBruce Cole\nVice-President, Osterville Village Association\ni,\nCell:\nCROSBY YACHT\nCROSBY YACHT YARD.

However, as a business\nowner | am unable to scan the QR code with anything but my phone to make it interactive and\naccess the detailed information. Can this be made more searchable on a standard desktop\ncomputer?\nMy primary comment is to request more emphasis on the centrality of water dependent uses\nbeing maintained and enhanced for the character and economic health of our community (and\nthe region). Businesses such as Crosby Yacht Yard are already under extreme pressure to give\nup on the demanding work of marine service and the public access benefit of providing places\nto go boating and enjoy the water's edge\nWe are pressured to instead let non-water-dependent development take over to just look at\nthe water like a reflecting pond for residences or hotels or Airbnb’s. We all benefit from the\nhistory and traditions of actual work being done here along the waterfront and we would\nappreciate aggressive planning to this end\nThis approach has the additional benefit of being compatible with climate resiliency because\nwater dependent uses are highly adaptable to tidal surge and climate change impacts\nAt our property, Crosby Yacht Yard, the area looks on the map as though there is a “Maritime”\nicon without explanation of what that means. What does it mean?\nIt also looks as though there is a light blue underlay, which the map key says is “Light\nCommercial” identified as a corridor to study for traffic impacts and to analyze proper land\nuses. What does this mean; especially does this suggest there is something improper about\nwhat is happening at our 100-yr old boatyard currently?\nESTABLISHED 1850\n| also want to emphasize that the business of boating has changed enormously over the past\nmany decades, and the old-fashioned fear that marine servicing is a big pollution source just\nisn’t valid in modern times.\nWe manage materials and stormwater and waste products with sophistication that probably\nexceeds most other industries and surely exceeds that of households in this aquifer. Please do\nnot characterize the type of work we do as somehow by definition incompatible with\nenvironmental protection. We are proud to be responsible stewards of the water as well as the\nland\n| appreciate all the work and effort on behalf of the Town and fellow residents. The foregoing\ncomments intended in the spirit of helpfulness, cooperation and mutual appreciation for the\nconsideration of our future.\nMost’sincerely,\nGregory R.

Internet issues\nand consequent backed-up work prevented me from getting this to you yesterday, the\nrequested comment date. Apologies.\nThe LCP Committee's discussion at the early September 2024 meeting was welcome. | and | know others\nreally appreciated that the Committee shifted away from going to corners with flip charts to group\ndiscussion that was audible to the public. People hope for more of that.\n| support preserving and maintaining Village centers as discussed at the September 2024 meeting and as\nnoted on the future land use map. | strongly oppose the language in the draft chapter about \"developing\nand redeveloping\" village centers and doing analysis of the development every two years based on the\n“vision.” Itis, by the way, not clear whose “vision” is meant in that context in any case given the Town\nstaff decision in this cycle to do away with the very long-time tradition of vision-visioning and village\nplans. For example, when | listen to residents at public meetings, | appreciate so much hearing and\nlearning from people who live in Hyannis and their concerns and wishes for Hyannis that | can't imagine\nsomeone else imposing a vision on them. | believe their views for Hyannis should be captured and\nreflected in plans. The notion of developing and redeveloping village centers mirrors the Cape Cod\nCommission's computer-generated Community Activity Center construct. That exercise was\ndisconnected from local facts and locals’ preferences. Even putting that process aside, consider for\nexample, whether you've ever heard people clamor to “redevelop” the beautiful Main Street in\nCenterville? Have you ever heard local residents express a desire to change it through consultant-\ngenerated \"Design Guidelines\"? | encourage the marking of village centers as \"to be preserved\" to be\nadopted as final. In fact, village centers warrant investment in preservation to maintain them as the draw\nthat they have long been.\nSimilarly, | support preserving single-family zoning, including in the areas around village centers as well.\nConsider, for example, the current density in the area around Osterville Village, with more dense\ncondominium complexes than perhaps anywhere in Town, and property lots in the surrounding areas\nthat are generally 1/4 or 1/3 of an acre. | strongly oppose the proposal to allow conversion of single-\nfamily homes to duplexes and triplexes By Right, and the other dense development proposals that echo\nthe Cape Cod Commission's Regional Housing Strategy. If one were to pursue such dramatic change to\nneighborhoods, one would need to provide direct town mail notice to homeowners and do considerably\nmore intense public processes to even consider such a shift in our residential land use. There\nare many ways to meet locals’ housing needs without upending single-family zoning and the town should\npursue those that are able to be executed in the near term and that have community support. Chief\namong them is making use of town-owned property for small, accessible housing for young people and\nseniors. In addition, the town should prioritize affordability in the range of housing decisions -\naffordability requirements were raised and left to the side in the ADU regulation and in the density zoning\n1\nchange in Hyannis, where the town consultant told the town to expect new units made possible by Form\nBased Zoning (now called design driven zoning and other modified names) to be at the high end of the\nmarket rate. That does not ultimately serve the people who most need help.\nIn connection with land use and housing, short-term rental businesses - STRs operated by people who\nown homes and never live in them but rather use them as higher-profit mini-hotels -\ndo not belong in residential nieghborhoods. Massachusetts courts agree. To be clear, this is different\nfrom Cape Cod family rental traditions, people who rent their own homes for periods in the summer. The\nformer are commercial enterprises. It is well documented by independent institutions that allowing such\nuse of housing stock puts upward pressure on all housing prices (not just affordable housing) as local\nfamilies compete for housing with investors calculating the sizable STR revenue stream, and drives up\nthe price of housing rents for locals. We have all heard endlessly the very predictable and very sad\naccounts of locals getting kicked out of their “winter rentals\" to make way for much more profitable\nAirbnb use. Nearly all the great and thriving tourist-dependent communities across this country have\nmade a decision to prioritize locals' need for housing by restricting such use. There are myriad ways to do\nthat which have withstood legal challenges by STR operators and industry and which have not adversely\naffected tourism. The LCP recommendation to deal with the need for long-term rentals by paying people\nnot to STR - through a property tax exemption - should be rejected. You may know that public records\nshow it originated not from the years of public dialogue about innumerable means to return some homes\nused as Airbnb businesses to use as homes for locals, but rather from one chamber of commerce (which\nis on record opposing mainstream STR restrictions) email to a town consultant after the public housing\nsurveys and focus groups closed. Its origin was one community out west whose housing stock was\ndevastated by STRs; subsequent media reports that the Town leaders consider the program a flop,\nneeding to be restructured for any going forward purpose. In addition, the proposal shifts property tax\nburdens away from owners of housing stock not used as homes to people who live in the homes they\nown. By all accounts, extending the residential tax exemption would not in any case make up the revenue\nloss to incent one not to STR - analysis shows that one makes more in two months operating an Airbnb\nthan one could earn by renting the same property year round. Before looking to create new housing\nstock, consider what Town housing said to the Housing Committee in an early Airbnb conversation\nreported in meeting minutes: \"We have a lot of housing stock. It is just not being used to house locals.\"\nThis town can preserve rental traditions and prioritize locals in the use of existing housing stock. Finally,\nany LCP Committee member who owns a house in Barnstable they do not live in and instead monetizes\nhousing as a short-term rental business should not be participating in or influencing these land use and\nhousing discussions or any LCP recommendation. Recall the Planning Board debacle a few years back\nthat had to be \"redone\" due to an Airbnb financial interest and failure to recuse. By information and belief\nand vacation rental ads on-line, the LCP Committee has such an issue.\nThank you for the time you contribute to the town and consideration of these views.\nMaldonado, Kaitlyn\nFrom: oraine janes\nSent: Tuesday, October 22, 2024 3:40 PM\nTo: Barnstable LCP\nSubject: My Village and My Neighborhood\n| support preserving my Village of Osterville and my single family neighborhood in Osterville.

There are also many discussions in many public documents about how\nincreased water flowing to downgradient residents raises the ground level water for these residents which impacts these\nresident’s private land use. Several previous plans have proposed injecting treated sewer water into the ground around\nthe college. This will have a serious impact on the water ground level near the college, particularly at the lowest point at\n1780 Main Street (6A) West BARNSTABLE, which can be considered “ground zero” for this huge problem\nWith proposed plans to develop housing behind the Burger King parking lot comes an increase in population for this area\nwhich increases traffic which shed more oil, chemicals (battery acid for example) during storm events-all of which goes\ndownhill, goes into ground water and out to Cape Cod Bay - UNLESS MAJOR MITIGATING WATER CLEANING\nINFRASTRUCTURES ARE INSTALLED AT THE SITES AND SURROUNDING AREA BEFORE DEVELOPMENT.\nBefore ANY development is considered for the West Barnstable area at and near the Community College, a FULL STUDY\nof the impact on the downgradient residential area must be completed along with SOLUTIONS to any problems which\nwould be FURTHER WORSENED BY MORE UPGRADIENT DEVELOPMENT.\nSubmitted by\nJane Saunders and Patrick

This effort will be\nforward looking but it always seems\nhelpful to know the rationale and\nthought process at the time.\nAttached are two documents. One is\nquotes by staff and the consultant about\nform based code parking during one of the\npublic forums. Another is general quotes.\nBelow is an email Jenkins sent to someone\nactive in BarnstableWatch in reply to a\nquestion about parking in the form based\ncode context (the question posed is\nincluded in Jenkins reply.0.\n| know not even a small fraction of what\nyou know about parking. The reason we\nfocused on it was because the consultant\nstudied more parking spaces per unit than\nJenkins ended up proposing, parking\ndominated Q&A at the (lightly attended)\npublic sessions, and in every case,\nJenkins basically gave soft word salad\nanswers to people's straight up questions\nabout parking. All she could do was go on\nand on about hopes for sharing. There was\nnever a plan.\nAlso, the Town did a really bad resident\nsurvey at the time. It asked for\nimpressions of pictures of lovely dense\nhomes and cold sterile single family\nhomes. When people (1% of Hyannis) said\nthe warm houses were prettier, staff took\nthat as support for density. In the survey\nprocess, | do not believe the town ever\nasked people about parking views.\nSending this along in case any of the\nbackground is helpful as you move\nforward.\nHeather\nBEGIN EMAIL FROM JENKINS\nJenkins, Elizabeth\n4:10 PM\nHello Kris,\nlam responding to the questions you\nposed about parking on the Downtown\nHyannis rezoning website:\nThe proposal says it will reduce required\nparking spaces for residential properties.\nHow does the proposal change parking\nrequirements - from what to what? Where\ndid the proposal to reduce required\nparking spaces come from? Did residents\nask for less parking for residents? Did the\nSurvey ask residents about reducing\nparking for residential properties?\nThe proposal to reduce parking\nrequirements for residential development\nin Downtown Hyannis came from a\nnumber of sources. The Downtown\nHyannis Parking Study and Hyannis\nGrowth Incentive Zone study, both\nproduced with extensive community input,\nemphasize the importance of shared\nparking. When land uses with different\nparking demands share parking, it\nrequires less land be dedicated to parking,\nwhich allows for more housing and less\npaved surfaces — both benefits to a\nvibrant downtown. These factors are\nespecially important to consider when\ntrying to encourage top-of-shop housing\nand small scale infill development.\nReducing parking requirements for multi-\nfamily residential development is also\nconsistent with the Commonwealth's\nHousing Choice efforts that seek to\nencourage new housing production. Not\nrequiring more parking than is necessary\ncontributes to the development of housing\na sustainable densities, which also\nimproves Its affordability. Finally, it’s\nworth noting the proposed parking\nrequirements are minimums, not\nmaximums. If a developer or property\nowner finds the addition of parking spaces\nbeyond minimum requirements will make a\nunit more saleable, the code allows for\nthis.\nThank you for your question. If you have\nany other questions about the propsoed\nzoning, please don’t hestiate to reach out.\nKind regards,\nElizabeth\nEND EMAIL FROM JENKINS\n<Parking 2020 FBZ .docx>\n<Staff Form Base Code Quotes-2.pdf>\nes\nParking 2020 FBZ .docx ~\n(These are all quotes)\nJenkins welcome:\nRefresh to our zoning in downtown Hyannis\nInspiration came from the Planning Board...they have been\nwonderful partners in helping us permit a number of great\ndevelopments...been partners in what has really turned into a\nconversation about how we make that permit process easier,\nmore predictable...\nArden: planning process all began in summer of 2018...the\nCommunity Initiative by Design...worked with our partner the\nCape Cod Commission and consultant Union Studios to develop\nmodel housing designs that were appropriate for our\ncommunity...had a number of public meetings but most\nimportantly had an on line visual preference survey...to\ndetermine what the communities preferences were for buildings,\ntheir form, their scale, their height, their style and for density...\npreferences were translated into actual model housing designs...\nwe didn’t want to leave it at that..received grant...and with that\ngrant were able to hire Utile to actually create revisions to our\nzoning.\nThis is first draft.\nUtile: (they wrote this zoning ordinance)\nIt’s first draft... you are our focus group.\n(You'll see)...test fits that we’ve done, some existing conditions\nin the downtown and what development might look like if a\ndeveloper came in and tried to max out what they could do\nbased on our draft code. That’s usually what we do, we write a\nnice code and then we design the game and then we play the\ngame, seeking as much density as possible to see if our code 1s\nactually appropriately written because in a way we are designing\na game the market plays...\n...we want to as a next step encourage shared parking between\nproperty owners, you’ll get a little something extra if you make\na deal with your neighboring property, it works already behind\nMain Street but as this concept takes off we want other shared\nparking to happen.\n...We’ve tested these heights relative to the available surface\nparking in the back, so even with our new smart code parking\nwill occasionally be the tail that wags the dog.\n..Most of the very simple form based codes don’t regulate\ndensity with measure, like dwelling units per acre, thal’s a way\nof understanding what you have. But instead of regulating that\nway it just allows you to build whatever dwelling units you can\nif you can park it. So all of the very simplest bare bones codes\nwill say however many spaces per dwelling unit and then if you\ncan fit those parking spaces on your site then you can have that\nmany units.\n... Whatever the seasonality of the housing will be up to\nindividual property owners...the question about shared parking\nand municipal parking garages and those kinds of things aren’t\nreally zoning issues. Those are certainly issues we’ve discussed\nwith Elizabeth and team but those have to do with other\nprocesses and other kinds of planning decisions but we are really\nfocused on the rule book for private property owners and\ndevelopers to make non-public decisions.\nJenkins\n...separate out the seasonal demand that’s created by the ferries\nvs the demand for downtown and businesses. The idea being if\nwe can create sorta of a protocol of ferry parking outside of the\nmore downtown area...think about demand base pricing..\n..and the idea of where this shared parking comes in, if we can\nfind incentives, sort of land use base use incentives for\nindividual property owners to enter into these agreements that’s\nsort of better than we can compel from a public perspective.\nNote: Schanussay thinks can go higher to 3 4 stories for more\ndensity in the less desirable neighborhoods.\nUtile on parking requirements\nWe tested these, development tested at 1.3 parking spaces per\nunit. We support lower parking ratios up here so don’t ask us.\n...1 think on MA, it’s about right, it might be high, a little high,\nnot a lot high...but there really isn’t transit with a capital T here,\nbut any unit that has two people that are driving to work, so 1.3\nis probably right, it’s probably what the market is going to\nexpect...in Some communities we’ve convinced the\nmunicipalities to let the developer decide because they have to\nrent or sell the units. A developer will never develop a project\nthat they don’t think they can market the units.\nRob Brennan (developer?)\n(Young professionals, work from home or cafes, are within\nwalking distance, work life play her retirees, season parking\ncrunch, 9 months of the year fine, blah blah, I like developers\ngiving input on parking need....)\nFelicia Penn\n...we don’t know who is going to be In the housing, particularly\nin Hyannis. ...there is no legal way to have housing reserved\nfor year round people...so when we look at housing that’s here\nin relation to parking we don’t know who it is...it makes a big\ndifference for parking usage...if it’s Airbnb it’s additional\nspaces you’re going to need, people renting bedrooms and\nstuff...what I’ve noticed when there is new housing around, it’s\ninvestment or second homeowners...if parking isn’t planned to\ncover those, I don’t know if there’s something we can write it to\ncover those..,how do you plan for that?\nUtile\n...any near term development is going to be on the upper end of\nmarket rate...that means they are going to be expensive units.\nThe market will sort that out at least in the near term. These\naren’t really zoning tools. I don’t know what tools are available\nto municipalities to deal with the seasonal issue. I don’t know if\nthere are any actually for the reasons that you’ve cited. I mean\nAirbnb can be regulated of course but not in terms of ownership,\nhow long people decide to live in their unit...\n..this isn’t meant to sound Pollyanna-ish but this code does the\nkind of design repair we think it is and extends the character of\nthe Hyannis village and dovetails it into the existing\nneighborhoods. It'll make Hyannis a better place to live in terms\nof its character. Those new residents will support maybe more\nnew restaurants, retail that are open all year round...that\nhopefully will change the profile of the buyer or renter.\n...we’ve right sized parking so that surface parking works. The\nproblem might be that brokers have told the people who owns\nthose properties that it’s worth x based on a 4 or 5 story model\nwith podium parking and that’s where the construction costs, the\ndevelopment costs get out of wack relative to market...we’ve\nproven that at 2 ‘4 stories we can get surface parking to work.\nUtile Answer to a will this improve parking downtown question:\n..parking garages are impossible to finance now...we are fans\nof small parking lots...the problem is that 1f you have to much\nparking along frontages is it kills off the value of the street and\npeople don’t want to come to your downtown. The funny thing\nabout parking is that once you solve the parking problem,\nnobody wants to come to your downtown...1 think the really\nanswer is a consolidated on everybody’s GPS place where\npeople park to go to the ferry...that’s a policy issue that we’ve\nhelped Elizabeth with twice to look at potential solutions...I\nthink that at some point this decade Hyannis is going to have to\nfinally solve that problem but I don’t think the zoning code is\nthe answer...\nStaff Form Base Code Quote... v\nHousing Committee 2/19/19\nArden on Community Resiliency by Design\nMinute 25:17\nArden: “The goal of the project was to understand the preferences of the community as far as\ndensity, building mass, building design, building styles so that we could then take those\npreferences, turn them into zoning that we would assume would be acceptable to the\ncommunity. Turn it into by-right zoning so that when builders came forward if they followed the\nrules, if they followed the example that we put in there you should have a pretty easy path to\npermit these. And these are some solutions, some strategies that we've come to which we think\nwill work.\nHousing Committee Chair: When someone stands up at a town meeting or in any public forum\nand says | don't like that, we don't like that, we at least have an answer. We polled the\ncommunity and this is what they said.\nArden: We went through a really big outreach effort and this is what the majority of people do\nprefer. The second phase of this is a project that we received additional grant funding for. We\nare going to take these preferences and we are going to move them into zoning. So we are\ngoing to revise the zoning code in Hyannis so that these things can be done as of right in\nHyannis. I'll just say Hyannis, we haven't come up with a boundary yet.”\nHousing Committee 8/20/19\nMinute 30:15\nArden: “zoning is a really really important tool that we have here that can incentivize\ndevelopment. You know municipalities don't build housing. What we do is set the table, we\ncreate a good environment for housing to be built...what is zoning? It's a tool to help us\nimplement our policy objectives. It affects the location, the rates, and the character of new\ndevelopment. Zoning sets the rules for that and we hear over and over from developers is that\nunpredictable permitting is a barrier to development. They cannot take the risk of putting in\nhundreds of thousands of dollars potentially in planning a project that they are not sure will get\npermitted. They need as-of-right permitting. They need some predictability in their permitting.\nMinute 31:40\nArden: “...Resiliency by Design project with the Cape Cod Commission and Union Studios\nwhere we had some stakeholder meetings and the preference survey which determined what\nthe characteristics were of housing in the community, we focused that on Hyannis for this\nproject, and then we are going to take those characteristics and move them into changing\nzoning so that it will allow for creation of more housing options by-right.... project is focused\nright now in the Growth Incentive Zone, so the Growth Incentive Zone is a portion of downtown\nHyannis. That's the focus of this area however our goal has always been to be able to replicate\nthis in other areas. This is an initiative, it's a zoning, so the Planning Department is working with\na consultant who will be providing us as a product, draft changes to our zoning that will allow\nmore dense residential development by-right in our Zoning code.”\nMinute 33:20\n“Form Base Code is Zoning that determines what a structure should look like. There is design\nelements, setback requirements, height requirements and then after that they are not that\nconcerned about the use inside. There is a parking element that comes with it and after that\ndoes it matter if it is two units in there or four units in there?”\nCommittee Chair: “So how will this help increase affordable housing?”\nArden: “It will eliminate that unpredictability of the zoning, developers will not need to come to\nthe town to ask permission to create denser housing. It will be most likely as of-right.”\nMinute 36: 47\nArden “That would be our goal, we'd say, ok absolutely, now let's replicate this in the village\ncenter of Marstons Mills, in the village center of Osterville and Barnstable, we'll move it. So this\nwas the goal of the project is to modernize the zoning to achieve community supported\nincreased residential production. It's going to streamline the zoning, it's going to make it\npredictable and make it market responsive.”\nMinute 44:58\nArden: “initiative we haven't started yet but hope to is integrate those housing choices in other\nvillages as Hilda was mentioning as standardized allowances for top of the shop apartments in\nall the village zoning districts. So that will take a little bit of zoning effort but it's a smart growth\npractice, it’s what the market wants, people want to live in villages, they want to be able to walk\nso we need to standardize that zoning in those districts to make that more doable,”\nHousing Committee 2/18/2020\nMinute 17:33\nArden: “Planning has been working on a Hyannis zoning initiative so we are working to amend\nthe zoning in an area in Hyannis: Main Street, part of South Street, North Street, and up\nBarnstable Road. This is where we are going to try to incorporate Form Based Zoning into this\narea. So we've been working with a consultant, they have a first draft of some zoning changes\nand that meeting is on March 2nd. | think I’ve sent you all an invitation...so Form Base Code\nchanges the zoning so that the form of the building, the size, the height, the amount of lot\ncoverage, the amount of parking required that’s what the zoning dictates. What the use is inside\nis not dictated by zoning. So you could construct a three story building and you could put six\nlarge high end apartments in there or 15 one bedroom apartments in there. You know as long\nas you can meet the parking requirements. The form is about the appearance, it's how you\nwant your community to look. So we have to study that very carefully before we put those\nguidelines into place. You know you're looking, that’s why there is going to be two different\nlevels, I'll call itand Aand aB. You know South Street doesn’t look the same as Main Street so\nwe are going to make changes that are appropriate for South Street and then we'll make\nchanges that are appropriate for Main Street but those design guidelines will look slightly\ndifferent. Those forms will look slightly different.

You'll see Wendy telling\nthe room 15-20 times to get sticky notes\nafter she talked about how much listening\nthe LCP has been doing for years. It was\napproaching funny. This was a room of\nintelligent people who were not having the\nsticky notes foisted upon them. My favorite\nline was \"I can't write an essay ona\nsticky note\".\nThe thing is when the town does not take\npublic input processes seriously and this is\nnot serious it shows up later, as it has on\nother matters in the last year or so.

We did this because in all\nof BarnstableWatch volunteers' meeting-\nwatching and document-reading, we've\nnot seen it, so it was surprising to see it as\nAs is the norm, it took a series of\nquestions, follow-ups and then a\nrecords request to get to the bottom line.\nPeople shouldn't have to do that to know\nwhat's what.\nIn doing this, we learned alot about the\nprocess. | share that information as well\nlam not sending this to Mark Ells. | will if\nanyone suggests | do as | am comfortable\nwith the research and being candid. But in\nmy experience over time, he has\nrepeatedly demonstrated a complete lack\nof concern and implicit support for the\nways in which the Planning Department\nconducts the public business. In my view,\nand in my experience running public\nengagement processes, this Planning\nDepartment has no business doing the\npublic's business. The process on the\nHousing Production Plan is more of the\nsame.\n| appreciate your taking the time to read\nthis (as do the people who help track\nthings!)\nPay Not to Airbnb Strategy.... v\nThis document explains the source of the Planning Department’s Short-term Rental Strategy to Pay\nProperty Owners Not to STR in the draft LCP and Housing Production Plan, and its\nmischaracterization of that strategy as emerging from a public survey and community focus groups.\nThis document then looks at the Housing Production Plan public processes that drive its\nsubstance.\nThe draft Local Comprehensive Plan and the draft Housing Production Plan both recommend\nstrategies on short-term rentals (STR): effectively write property owners a check not to Airbnb their\nproperties. This followed zero public outreach on STR strategies.\nPaying landlords not to STR was never on the table during years of community discussion about STR\napproaches. Since then, BarstableWatch volunteers have watched public body meetings. None\nhave discussed any STR strategy. Indeed, during the time when this ‘pay landlords’ proposal was\nfloating inside the Planning Department, minutes show Planning Department staff telling the\nHousing Committee not to talk about STRs.\n| therefore asked the Planning Department what public body discussed this new ‘pay property\nowners’ Strategy to learn its origin.\nThe Planning Department replied as follows:\n“Regarding the STR recommendations in the plan, they were written by the consultant\nteam that drafted the original report. That team based those recommendations on input\nreceived from the public survey and a series of focus groups with community\nmembers.” '\n| therefore asked to see the survey data and focus group data purporting to show the public\ninput recommending paying landlords not to STR.\nAfter repeated requests, the Planning Department sent a Summary of the Public Survey and the\nCommunity Focus Groups.\n* The Public Survey Summary had no mention of paying property owners not to STR their\nhome via incentive or deed restriction.\n* The Community Focus Groups Summary had no mention either.\nRather, the Planning Department added the idea as a note to the Focus Group Summary as\nfollows:\n“Following this session, one participant reached out to provide an article covering a\nSedona, Arizona housing program that pays homeowners to rent their properties to year-\nround tenants rather than vacation rental sites like Airbnb.”\n\"Full email exchanges are provided separately, both on this issue and on how the Town populated its Focus\nGroups.\n| therefore asked to see who that participant was through a records request. Given the Planning\nDepartment's history of favoring financial interests over residents, | wondered whether the\nPlanning Department picked it up from a person or\nentity with an economic interest in not adopting ——--—4\nmainstream STR rules. It takes =\njust y\nThe Planning Director's characterization that the\nstrategy was from “input received from the public\nsurvey and a series of focus groups with community\nmembers” was untrue.\nfor average short-term rental\nincome to exceed average\nThe origin? The Hyannis Chamber of Commerce sent Source: Cape Cod Commission\nan article about Sedona, AZ paying people not to\nAirbnb.\nThe Hyannis Chamber has opposed mainstream STR restrictions and favors nuisance/noise\nregulation only.\nDuring the STR debate, the Hyannis Chamber letter to the Council called people who buy\nhomes, do not live here, and Airbnb them “our economic model”:\n“,..We have heard from businesses and homeowners that the civic associations'\nproposal will cause significant sell off properties from people who are unable to bear the\nentire cost of the property and are equally unable to live here for 3 months per year.\nRequiring an owner to live in the house that he is renting is not workable in the least\nsense. The civic associations’ ideas will result in fewer people in our area during the\nimportant business season, lower housing costs and increased tax rates to make up the\ndifference... You cannot tax people back into hotels and you should not enact\nordinances that upend our economic model...”.\nThe full letter obtained through public records request is attached below.\nThe Planning Department takes one Chamber email about one town that does not restrict the\nuse of homes as Airbnb — consistent with the Chamber’s prior advocacy - and makes it the\nrecommended STR strategy in two draft Plans without any discussion by any town body, without\nany agenda item on STR approaches, or any request to the public for STR proposals and then\ndescribes it as having roots in the HPP Public Survey and Community Focus Groups.*\nWhy did the Planning Department Want to Follow Sedona?\n= Sedona does not share Barnstable’s summer seasonal community profile and\ntraditions.\n=\" Sedona is in one of the only states that has banned municipalities from restricting\nSTRs. When Sedona’s housing stock was decimated by Airbnb, Sedona turned to\n? Contrast that to not a word in response to significant research BarnstableWatch provided to the Town\nabout myriad diverse ways communities across the country have approached STR regulation. And not a\nword in response to Civic Associations’ and BarnstableWatch model STR regulations that started with the\nHamptons’ STR approach as a base — a seaside summer seasonal and tourist destination proximate to\nan east coast city — modified to reflect Cape rental traditions.\npayments. In Massachusetts, as in almost all states, communities restrict or limit\nSTRs in any number of ways.\n=\" Sedona town officials declared this program a flop.\n=\" Sedona is consistent with the Planning Department's prior recommendations - and\nwith the preferences of the Chambers, CCAIOR and the Builders - to allow unlimited\nSTRs.\nCape Cod Commission Mirrors the Planning Department's Pay Landlords Strategy\nThe Cape Cod Commission picked up the ‘write a check to landlords’ approach to STRs in\nits Regional Housing Strategy. We don't know how that came to pass, but we know this:\n=\" The CCC never sought public input on STR approaches.\n= The CCC never met to discuss public comment or to deliberate how the draft\nRegional Housing Strategy should be modified to reflect public feedback. It never\nadopted the plan at all — it’s a staff plan.\n=» AProvidence newspaper quoted the Commission's Executive Director saying it was\nhaving “stakeholder” discussions about STR approaches.\n* Planning Department staff is among CCC stakeholders, along with people on various\nentities’ payrolls, per the CCC website.\n« | wrote to the CCC Executive Director to ask where | could find information about its\nSTR stakeholder discussion on its website (there was none). | asked if\nBarnstableWatch could contribute given its massive research. No reply.\nPROCESS DRIVES OUTCOMES:\nTHE PLANNING DEPARTMENT’S “PUBLIC” PROCESSES\nThis Planning Director has showed time and again that she has no business doing public\nbusiness.\nIn the HPP, the Planning Department points to a “Public Survey” and “Community Focus\nGroups,” and 1:1 Interviews following the Focus Groups, and Community Forums as the\nbasis of its strategies. Let’s look at those.\n1. Surveys\n« The Planning Department's surveys have no controls to fairly measure resident\nviews: live anywhere, vote often, that kind of thing. In every survey, it's easy to find\nvarious business and paid interest representatives pushing Planning Department\nsurveys out to members on social media. Why wouldn't they?\n= Records show a week before the survey was to close, less than 300 residents\nresponded. Assuming the response rate doubled or tripled in the final days, it's ~1% -\n2% of the public. This is the same as the form-based codes “pretty picture visual\nimage” survey”, where ~1% of Hyannis or .003% of Barnstable participated and was\nlater declared terrific public input.\n« |Inarecent housing survey (for the LCP, which is mirroring the HPP and has the\nsame consultant), the Planning Department published the names of residents with\ntheir answers. The American Association for Public Opinion Research counts that as\none of four “condemned survey practices.” Moreover, the Planning Department didn't\ntell people it was going to do that highly unusual, condemned thing.\nThe survey questions are often guided to an end. Example: The Planning\nDepartment's STR survey omitted any question about the key issue of people who\nnever live here but buy and commoditize our homes as STRs v. Cape families who\nlive here and rent for some period time in the summer. We saw that omission in a\ndraft and asked for such questions to be included. They were not.\n2. Focus Groups\nThe Planning Department list of who it invited to Community Focus Groups was not\nthe actual public. (It said it didn’t have the list of who actually participated — that was\nin the records of a consultant, which is a separate problem discussed below.) Many\nwere people whose job it is to listen to the public and reflect public sentiment in the\nHPP and who had roles that gave them influence in the HPP outside of the\nCommunity Focus Groups.\no The vast majority were as follows: Ells, Cylburn, Norcross, Shufelt, the Town\nCouncil, multiple people from HAC (even more piled into one Focus Group),\nthe Housing Committee, people from county government, people from\nHabitat, Rob Brennan/CapeBuilt, Telman/850 Main developer, Jake\nDewey/developer, BID founder Young, someone from Yarmouth government.\nThe Planning Department told the Housing Committee (at a meeting with little to no\npublic attendance) that it was putting together Focus Groups. It said it had an “A list”\nand “B list\". | wrote for help getting on the A list. The Planning Department replied\nthat there was no Alist and B list and said | could get on the list. (Records showed\nthe Planning Department and consultant later referring to the B List, so the answer\nto me was also untrue.) | then let other citizens know to ask to get in a Focus\nGroup.\nThe Planning Department selects people who have other influence opportunities,\npeople whose job it is to listen to the public, people with financial interests in\noutcomes, people who are paid to influence outcomes by their employer and then\nblends those with a few members of the public and calls it “Community Input.” All\ninterests need to be heard, but they should not be blended with residents’ views.\nThe way this is run, there is no uninfected measure of resident views.\n3. 1:1 Interviews\nThe Planning Department said some Focus Group participants would be\ninterviewed 1:1 afterwards. It told me that the consultant would select people for this\nincremental input and that would depend on “affiliations” and “ideas.”\nRecords show the Planning Department gave the consultant a list for 1:1 interviews.\nlt included: Matt Levesque, a HAC employee, a HAC Board member, CCAIOR CEO\nCastle, Cape Chamber CEO Niedzwicki, Cape Cod Young Professionals, Habitat for\nHumanity, Shufelt, Carey (the former Housing Committee chair after he left),\npossibly someone from Yarmouth interested in homesharing. The consultant then\nasked for others, particularly on homelessness, and the Planning Department\nswapped some names. This is not a measure of the actual public.\n4. HPP “Community Forums”\nOne sign in sheet showed ~17 people. Some were town employees and officials.\n5. Scrubbing “Public Facing” Documents for Vagueness\nRecords from 2022 show the Planning Department scrubbing “Goals and\nStrategies” — “Elizabeth has a lot of concern with the wording of several of the Goals\nand Strategies being public facing in their current format’. Another document\nreferenced sensitivity in several villages about zoning changes. The actual goals\nand strategies were not a concern — just the wording in documents the public would\nsee. Staff then produced redlines which it gave to the consultant. When | asked for\nthose, the town told me it needed to get those from the consultant.\nSame thing, another year. The Planning Department changed the January 2023\nHPP draft (never made public) when it issued the May 2024 HPP plan. It overhauled\nthe section about changing zoning in specific villages to remove which villages, and\nto delete the reference to changing single-family zoning % mile around those\nvillages. Staff did not issue a redline; we created one to see what was changed. It\naccomplishes the Planning Department's goal of being vague to avoid public\nreaction while maintaining meaning. If the Planning Department was instead straight\nwith the public, it would dramatically increase public participation, but its point is to\navoid that. See one example | created comparing the 2023 (never public) and 2024\nplans.\n43.

The Consultants’ Role in Public Business\n= The consultant has public records that the Town does not. Examples: When | asked\nfor the Town's redlines of draft strategies, | was told they needed to get that\ndocument from the consultant. Another email showed staff asking the consultant to\ngive Jenkins access to a file with draft documents.\no Why does the Planning Department allow a consultant to control and, in\nsome cases, exclusive possession of public records?\no Does the Planning Department require the consultant to follow document\nretention requirements?\no Are the consultant records included in FOlA/records requests since it\npossesses public documents that the town does not have? And since the\nconsultant has communications from stakeholders about the HPP that go\nonly to the consultant? (The question is rhetorical; this is a records problem.)\n« Why does the Planning Department allow advocates such as the Chamber direct\naccess to a publicly funded town consultant without town staff even being in the\ncommunication chain as records show?\nThese Planning Department public process approaches are not new. Mark Ells has been aware\nof it all over many years and in many cases has been asked for help. Nothing changes.

This was right before he stepped down after the public questioned his making\nproposals that would financially benefit his business.\nHYANNIS CHAMBER STR POSITION\nFrom: Todd Deluca [mailto\nSent: Thursday, February 27, 2020 5:00 PM\nTo: Town Council Mailbox; Walsh, Bronwen\nSubject: Short Term Housing\nDear Council President Hebert,\n| am writing today because I am unable to attend tonight's meeting. ‘The purpose of my correspondence is to\nrespond to the proposed ordinance changes circulated by the Hyannis, Centerville and Osterville Civic\nAssociations that I expect will be presented to you tonight.\nWhile we understand and agree with these organizations that no one wants raucous parties next door, we have\nordinances regarding noise and occupancy levels in place that if enforced should take care of the problems. The\ncivic associations’ proposal that I reviewed included significunt overreach. ‘They included rules that did not\nexist when people purchased these properties and it is unthinkable that they would propose such extreme\nchanges after the fact. Furthermore, their solutions will ea!\nhomeowner, and the renters, Their propos\nignificant increase in costs al the Town, to the\nail ix like cutting off one's arm to treat u hangnail\nWe have heard from businesses and homeowners that the civic associations’ proposal will cause significant sell\noff of properties from people who are unable to bear the entire cost of the property and are equally unable to\nlive here for 3 months per year. Requiring an owner to live in the house that he is renting is not workable in the\nleast sense, The civic associations’ ideas will result in fewer people in our area during the important business\nseason, lower housing costs and increased lax rales to make up the difference, No doubt, second homeowners\nlooking for property will look beyond Barnstable and buy in communities without such draconian ordinances\nand where they can fund the property in party by rental when they are not in the arca\nAlthough the second homeowners are not here year around, they ure taxpayers and deserve to be represented in\nthis decision.

This plan will cause financial havoc Jor the town, our\nbusinesses, and our residents\nI urge you and the other councilors to create a plan for effective enforcement of the ordinances for noise and\ndensity already in place and not to add any of the recommended changes proposed by the civic\nassociations.

It sat\nin a drawer for over a year. When a\nrevised version to what had been shared\nwith the Housing Committee in January\n2023 came out in the spring of 2024, not\none person showed up at the Housing\nCommittee to comment on it. (I sent in\ncomments but in Jenkins's fashion, she\nlater said she \"didn't know\" the\ncomments were comments for the\nCommittee, despite the clear title on the\npage and my request to share them with\nthe Committee...). Similarly, not one\nperson showed up to comment on the\nHPP at the Planning Board. The current\nHPP is a public input problem to solve.\nNot a draft to shove along.\nI've redlined the 2023 to the 2024\nversion. Jenkins did what she said she\nwould do in an internal email - scrub the\n\"public facing\" documents due to\nanticipated public reaction. She didn't\nchange the meaning, just the clarity of\nthe words to defer public reaction.\nOn public process on the CCC Regional\nHousing Plan, which the HPP parrots in\nevery material way? The CCC contracted\nfor outside consultants and lawyers to\ndraft Model Bylaws for the CCC's staff's\nfavorite recommendations 6 months\nbefore a RHS draft was issued for public\ncomment. That is a public input problem\nto solve. Do you know how many times\nthe CCC talked about public input? Zero.\nIn fact, it never met to discuss public\ncomment or to decide to adopt the RHS\nas final. Staff simply issued it stamped\nfinal - it's an unelected Commission's\nunadopted staff plan. That is a public\ninput process to solve as well. This Is not\nhow the government works. In this\ncountry anywav.\nOn your comment on Hyannis. You, as a\nCouncilor, with other Councilors, are the\npeople who have chosen to shove things\nat Hyannis. Turn back yards into parking\nlots. Move 35 Scudder into the regulatory\ndevelopment map without noticing\nabutters or pausing when not one person\nshowed up to comment on the agenda -\nthat listed map numbers as \"notice.\" A\nForm Based Zoning process that was a\nmindless image survey followed by\nforums with 10 and 30 people. It's been\ndisgraceful. The people who don't live in\nHyannis see what you do, and then try to\nblame others. Let's ask the people of\nHyannis for a Village Plan for the new\nLCP and see what comes back. It will\nlook nothing like what prior Councils\nhave shoved at Hyannis and nothing\nlike the HPP or LCP drafts.\nBy the way, if you didn't try to disrupt\nprogress under President Penn and went\nby the Code for ad hoc Committee\nappointments, work would be well down\nthe road. That it's not is on you. What an\nirony coming from Councilors who\nflounced ad hoc Committee rules for\nyears on end.

They are a\nconstructive means to make progress, for\nthe Council's further consideration, on\nimportant issues and in a way that\nbrings public awareness and visibility to\nthem, with comparable awareness and\naccess for all.\nThe current proposal seeks to do public\nbusiness in the way the Town Code\nintends: defined committee scopes,\ncommunicated to the Council and the\npublic to enable participation by all at the\nSame time and in the same way, with a\n\"complete by\" date for the work,\nfollowed by Council deliberation of any\nrecommendations.\nThe last several ad hoc subcommittees\ndeparted from this required process in\nnearly all ways. It gave business interests\nearlier and more significant input\nopportunities than residents. This is not a\npoint of view: it is evidenced by facts\nrecorded in minutes and on video.\nGiven some misstatements of facts\nabout them by Councilor Levesque at the\nlast meeting (perhaps attributable to the\npassage of time as this went on for years), |\nset forward facts from Town records and\nvideos below. The reason for sharing this\ncommittee history is to illustrate the\ncontrast in the way the Town Council had\ndone business and the way it is now\nproposing to do business. The way it had\ndone business caused hundreds of\nresidents to petition for a Resident Zoning\nAdvisory Committee to level the uneven\nplaying field between business interests\nand residents that became\ninstitutionalized. In my view, the\nIn my view, it is ultimately the job of\npublicly-funded professional staff, and\nultimately the Town Manager, to see to it\nthat public business is done in a way that\ncomplies with the Code. The Council is, as\nyou know well, effectively a volunteer\nposition; each of you should not have to\ncontinuously review the Code, and\nwebsites, and notices and everything else\nto confirm business Is done properly. That\ndidn't happen. Citizen inquiries about this\nwere ignored.\nThe best substantive outcomes result from\ndiverse points of view, which requires\ncomparable access and opportunity for all.\nThe Town Code sets out processes to\nachieve that end, and to my read, the\nproposed committees are structured in\nconformance.\nFurther, it would be great to hear you all\ndiscuss possible zoning and housing\napproaches that may emerge from such\ncommittee(s) work - a move beyond\nreacting to proposals for waivers and the\nlike, and beyond the .76 of a minute each\nCouncilor was given on housing at the last\nStrategic Planning event (90 minutes for 13\nCouncilors to talk about 9 major issues...),\nwith follow-up in emails that no one saw.\nThank you for taking the time to read this.\nThe Economic Development Task Force\ne No scope, as required, to the Council\nby its creator, former President\nSteinhilber.\nInstead, the former\nCouncilor Steinhilber announced the\nscope to the Task Force at Its first\nmeeting.\nNo Council vote to create it.\nNo sunset date as required.\nNo web presence at all, unlike all\nother public bodies.\nThe Town could not produce\nappointment records when asked\nyears later; minutes the public asked\nfor years later show members self-\nselecting.\ne Some folks who spoke at the last\nCouncil meeting were on this\nCommittee. (I'll inject an opinion\nhere to this list of facts: It was\nunsurprising to observers that those\nwith an early seat at the table out of\npublic view are reacting with\napparent anxiety at proposals to do\npublic business according to Code.)\ne The Committee went on to ignore the\nimproperly announced scope.\nInstead, they took up housing,\nzoning, parking and even Hyannis\nwater. Senior town staff were there\nand aware. Attached is a summary\nfrom minutes prepared by a citizen\nthat show the disconnect between\nthe improperly announced scope\nand what the Committee worked on.\nPlease refer to the full minutes as\nwell; this summary is intended as a\nsnapshot.\nThe members formed\nHousing, Inclusionary Housing, and\nParking Subcommittees. No records,\nno visibility, nothing. Members\nappointed themselves to that.

There\nare no records to substantiate that.)\nwell: this summary is intended as a\nsnapshot.\ne The members formed\nHousing, Inclusionary Housing, and\nParking Subcommittees.

There\nare no records to substantiate that.)\nThe Task Force minutes are on town\nletterhead. Town staff supported its\nwork at every meeting.\nMinutes show the Planning\nDepartment asking this Committee\nto \"champion\" its form-based zoning\ncode. It worked on that for ~18\nmonths before Elizabeth Jenkins\nannounced to the Council that the\npublic process on that proposal\nwould begin. The public process was\ncalled \"terrific\". By way of public\nprocess, only 1% of Hyannis\nresidents responded to a Town\nsurvey on form based zoning. At\nforums, ~10 and ~30 people showed\nup, including town staff and officials.\nPublic questions and concerns about\nthe parking component proposal\nwere answered with \"hopes\" about\nshared parking. This is on video and\nIn writing.\nMinutes show the members of the\npublic that knew to show up included\na representative from the Hyannis\nBusiness Improvement District and\nthe Chamber, and someone named\nCarey.\nThe Zoning and Regulatory\nSubcommittee\ne Formed in 2017.\ne A former Town Council leader made\nhimself that Subcommittee's leader,\nin violation of TC rules prohibiting\nthat.\ne No sunset as required by the Code.\ne Over the years, it moved from zoning\nissue to zoning issue despite the\nTown Code's provision for a defined\nscope and a time certain. Illustrative\nof the lack of defined scope was, at\nits last meeting in 2021, a solicitation\nof ideas about what zoning matters\nto take up next.\nWhen asked, Councilor Steinhilber\ncalled it an extra \"rung in the ladder\"\nof public process. In fact, outside of\nSTRs, only a dozen people showed\nup between 2017 - 2021. No\nsurprise. This was not a place the\nCouncil told the public would\nbecome the place zoning happened.\ne See an exchange | had with\nSteinhilber here at minute 52 where\nhe talked around the lack of\nconformance to required processes.\nHe was wrong.\ne An illustration of how this process\nworked in practice. When it worked\non ADUs, the Subcommittee met for\n5-6 months with nothing at all on its\nweb page. Citizens looked weekly for\nactivity; the Subcommittee\npresented to the public as dormant.\nThe Subcommittee chair welcomed a\nrepresentative of the builders,\nrealtors, chamber and HAC to\npresent a proposed ordinance and\ninteract with the committee over the\ncourse of a meeting (no 3 minute\nlimit like that given to residents).\nIndeed, when residents and Civic\nAssociations presented a model\nordinance on a prior matter in public,\nthe same leaders ridiculed them for\ndoing so on the public record. The\nlack of public presence during this\ntime period caused former\nCouncilor Culllum and Councilor\nSchnepp to chuckle over the lack of\npublic comment, and Councilor\nLevesque to thank the one member\nof the public for showing up.\n(Someone sent me that audio clip\nfrom Channel 18 which I can send\nalong). That was a public official/\ndeveloper who had expressed\ninterest in multi-family by right on\nthe public record. Town staff replied\nto that by asking if the ADU proposal\nas presented (which departed from\nADU rules adopted by nearly all Cape\ntowns...) got him close enough. He\nsaid it depended on whether it\nstayed in the form as the builder/\nrealtors/chamber/hac proposed.\nSomehow, he knew to show up. That\nwas not the only time this committee\ndid business with a website that\nmade it look dormant.\nThank you for endeavoring to do business\nconsistent with the Town Code provisions\nthat are designed to be fair and equitable\nto all.\nHeather Hunt\nECO DEV TASK FORCE Minut... » Done\nMeeting Agenda Minutes\nDate\n12/07/18 | link populates 01/08/21 agenda \"The charge of this committee is to identify\ncompetitive advantages as well as internal\nto the Town and external market challenges\nto doing business in Barnstable.

The CCC did not reply to that.\n| therefore submit this request for all\ncommunications and records.\n2) 1am interested in reading all public\ncomments on the CCC Draft Regional\nHousing Strategy. | should not have to ask\nchoses to post all the public comments on\nits website that would satisfy this request.\nIf it chooses to keep public comment\ninternal, | would like to receive it all via this\nrecords request.\n3) |see the CCC has published Model\nBylaws associated with recommendations\nin a Draft Regional Housing Strategy that\nhas not been adopted. That was super\ncurious as the CCC has not responded to\npublic comment, discussed the Draft or\nadopted the Draft.

It is not comprehensive and may\nmiss things so view it critically, but\neverything is cut and paste from the LCP\nChapters and CCC document. It is\nadequate to allow you to assess the\nmirroring or to ask questions.\nThe public comment to the CCC reflected a\nlot of concern. The CCC has not yet\ndiscussed that or changed or adopted the\ndraft as final. Yet, the CCC issued Model\nBylaws that would execute some of Its\nrecommendations before it even posted\nthe public's input or talked about public\nopinion.

This program\nprovides a nearly instant addition to the\nyear-round rental market by turning an\nexisting structure into a year-round\nrental.\n*The CCC was quoted in an outer Cape\npaper saying it was working with\nstakeholders on STRs. | wrote to the CCC\nExecutive Director and asked if it could\npoint to where on its website such\ninformation was located and asked if\nBarnstableWatch could be sucha\nstakeholder since we had done massive\nresearch about SIR regs all over the\ncountry and since we have ~800\nfollowers. No reply.\nStrategy:\nPursue the extension of Barnstable’s\nresidential property tax exemption to\nBarnstable property owners that provide\nyear-round rentals to income-eligible\ntenants with incentives for local preference.\n*When asked for the source of this\nrecommendation, the Planning Dept. said it\nwas from Citizen Survey and Focus Groups.\nWe asked for that data. This and the\nrecommendation below were not mentioned\nin the summary of the survey or focus\ngroups. A footnote said one person from one\nfocus group sent it to the Planning Dept after\nthe fact. Please ask for data sources when\ninquiring from where proposals came.\nNote these focus groups included\nrepresentatives of advocacy organizations\nand others who are not residents. The report\nout does not distinguish between resident\nviews and those of paid advocates.\nSame as above via\ndeed restrictions\nRECOMMENDATION\nProvide Financial Incentives to Convert\nand Preserve Year-round Housing.\nTwo model programs exist to help do\nthis.... The second is a program providing\ndeed-restrictions for year-round\noccupancy of units.\nStrategy:\nDevelop strategies that will address the\nseasonal housing challenges unique to the\nregion, including pursuing the ability to\nplace year-round deed-restrictions on\nresidential units, ensuring that the seasonal\nunits are tailored for J-1 and H-2B programs.\nChange zoning to\nallow mixed use by\nright in village\ncenters\nBarnstable-specific Recommendation:\nAllow mixed use by-right with design\nguidelines in village centers and Route 28\ncommercial nodes.\nStrategy:\nSupport contextual, village-scaled mixed-\nuse and multi-unit development and\nredevelopment, enabling better use of\nexisting development by implementing\ncommunity- supported planning initiatives\nand zoning amendments, and studying what\ndesign, scale, and type of housing may be\nappropriate in commercial corridors and\npedestrian-oriented village centers.\n* The Planning Department first spoke\npublicly about its intention to move form-\nbased zoning to other villages in 2021. From\nInclusionary Bylaw\nBarnstable-specific Recommendation:\nConsider revising inclusionary bylaw.\nStrategy:\nStrengthen the inclusionary affordable\nhousing ordinance by requiring a higher\npercentage of affordable units at a variety of\nincome levels, and making the required\npercentage proportionate to the size of the\ndevelopment.\n= Look for opportunities to provide\nexpedited permitting, zoning relief, density\nbonuses, and financial subsidy for\ndevelopments that provide affordable\nhousing beyond what is required....\nUnderutilized\nproperties\nEach of these placetypes provide unique\nopportunities to support multi-family\nhousing, redevelop underutilized areas\ninto mixed-use or multi-family housing...\nDormitory housing may also be a good\ncandidate for underutilized hotels or\nmotels and the reuse of existing\nbuildings.\nStrategy:\nConsider a zoning amendment to define\n“underutilized properties\" in locations\nconsistent with the Local Comprehensive\nPlan to allow redevelopment and re-use for\nmulti-unit housing through expedited\npermitting, zoning relief, and density\nbonuses.\nStrategy: Pursue the creation of affordable\nyear-round housing on vacant and/or\nunderutilized land or properties as\nconsistent with the Local Comprehensive\nPlan.\nChange zoning for\nmulti-family by right\nconversions of single\nfamily homes\nDRAFT\nAllow by-right single-family to\nduplex/triplex conversions with design\nguidelines in residential districts.\n“Consider adopting cottage court zoning\nin residential districts.”\n“Recommendation: Change Zoning.\nCape communities must change zoning\nto allow for multi-family housing and\nmore diverse housing types by-right in\nappropriate locations.”\nStrategy:\nConduct a study of Residential Areas within\na walkable distance of mixed-use and\ncommercial zoning districts in relation to\nthe Town's CWMP. Where future sewer\ncapacity exists, nitrogen sensitive\nembayments will not be negatively\nimpacted, and the required parking per unit\ncan be accommodated on site, consider\nallowing and adopting design standards for:\n* Two- or three-family dwellings (new\nconstruction or conversions) so long as the\nunderlying dimensional standards and\nmassing for a single-family home are\nmaintained.\n= Clusters of small-scale single-family or\ntwo-family “cottages” designed around\ncommon open space on a single lot.\n* Townhouse communities integrated into\nneighborhood and providing attainable\nhousing opportunities for families.\n* The intent is to provide more housing\ndiversity within walking distance of shops,\nservices, and facilities.\nChange zoning to\nallow multi-family by\nright in village\ncenters (andin\nundefined\n“neighboring\nresidential areas”)\nAllow small scale multi-family by-right\nwith design guidelines in village centers\nCCC contracted for such design\nguideline Model Bylaws in 2023,\nmonths before it issued its draft\nfor public comment, and posted\nthe Model Bylaws for municipality\nuse before posting or considering\npublic feedback and before\nadopting its draft as a final.\nStrategy:\nDevelop and adopt standards, including\ndesign standards or guidelines, for\nadditional housing types at a scale between\ntwo-family dwellings and multi-family\ndwellings. This could include 3- and 4-family\ndwellings, townhouses, small apartments of\nup to 6 dwelling units designed to look like\nlarge houses, or small-scale apartment\nbuildings of up to 12 units. Such housing\ntypologies may be most beneficial as a\ntransition from the Economic Center to\nneighboring residential areas. Smaller multi-\nfamily options may also be easier for local\ndevelopers to design and build, with less\ncompetition from larger national firms.\nChange zoning to\ndevelop or redevelop\nVillage Centers\nBarnstable-specific Recommendations:\nAllow small scale multi-family by-right\nwith design guidelines in village centers\nand Route 28 commercial nodes.\nAllow mixed use by-right with design\nguidelines in village centers and Route\n28 commercial nodes.\nStrategy:\nConduct an analysis, at least once every\ntwo years, of development and\nredevelopment in each of the Village\nCenters, compared with the planned vision\nfor each village and the stated purposes of\nany village zoning districts. Identify any\nDRAFT\ndevelopment/redevelopment outcomes that\nare inconsistent with the vision/purposes\nand explore options for regulatory\namendments to address them. In particular,\nexplore a prohibition on use variances for\nVillage Centers where this is not already in\nplace.\nDesign Guidelines Strategy:\nfor changed Village\nCenters Adopt design guidelines for residential, non-\nresidential and mixed-use development and\nredevelopment for each Village Center\nSee below - Guidelines commissioned lacking them.

Internet issues and consequent\nbacked-up work prevented me from\ngetting this to you yesterday, the\nrequested comment date. Apologies.\nThe LCP Committee's discussion at the\nearly September 2024 meeting was\nwelcome. | and I know others really\nappreciated that the Committee shifted\naway from going to corners with flip charts\nto group discussion that was audible to the\npublic. People hope for more of that.\n| support preserving and maintaining\nVillage centers as discussed at the\nSeptember 2024 meeting and as noted on\nthe future land use map. | strongly oppose\nthe language in the draft chapter about\n\"developing and redeveloping\" village\ncenters and doing analysis of the\ndevelopment every two years based on the\n\"vision.\" Itis, by the way, not clear whose\n\"vision\" is meant in that context in any\ncase given the Town staff decision in this\ncycle to do away with the very long-time\ntradition of vision-visioning and village\nplans. For example, when | listen to\nresidents at public meetings, | appreciate\nso much hearing and learning from people\nwho live in Hyannis and their concerns and\nwishes for Hyannis that | can't imagine\nsomeone else imposing a vision on them. |\nbelieve their views for Hyannis should be\ncaptured and reflected in plans. The notion\nof developing and redeveloping\nvillage centers mirrors the Cape Cod\nCommission's computer-generated\nCommunity Activity Center construct. That\nexercise was disconnected from local facts\nand locals' preferences. Even putting that\nprocess aside, consider for example,\nwhether you've ever heard people clamor\nto \"redevelop\" the beautiful Main Street in\nCenterville? Have you ever heard\nlocal residents express a desire to change\nit through consultant-generated \"Design\nGuidelines\"? | encourage the marking of\nvillage centers as \"to be preserved\" to be\nadopted as final. In fact, village centers\nwarrant investment in preservation to\nmaintain them as the draw that they have\nlong been.\nSimilarly, | support preserving single-\nfamily zoning, including in the areas around\nvillage centers as well. Consider, for\nexample, the current density in the area\naround Osterville Village, with more dense\ncondominium complexes than perhaps\nanywhere in Town, and property lots in the\nSurrounding areas that are qenerallv 1/4 or\n1/3 of an acre. | strongly oppose the\nproposal to allow conversion of single-\nfamily homes to duplexes and triplexes By\nRight, and the other dense development\nproposals that echo the Cape Cod\nCommission's Regional Housing Strategy.\nlf one were to pursue such dramatic\nchange to neighborhoods, one would need\nto provide direct town mail notice to\nhomeowners and do considerably more\nintense public processes to even consider\nsuch a shift in our residential land use.\nThere are many ways to meet locals'\nhousing needs without upending single-\nfamily zoning and the town should pursue\nthose that are able to be executed in the\nsupport. Chief among them is making use\nof town-owned property for small,\naccessible housing for young people and\nseniors. In addition, the town should\nprioritize affordability in the range of\nhousing decisions - affordability\nrequirements were raised and left to the\nside in the ADU regulation and in the\ndensity zoning change in Hyannis, where\nthe town consultant told the town to\nexpect new units made possible by Form\nBased Zoning (now called design driven\nzoning and other modified names) to be at\nthe high end of the market rate. That does\nnot ultimately serve the people who most\nneed help.\nIn connection with land use and housing,\nshort-term rental businesses - STRs\noperated by people who own homes and\nnever live in them but rather use them as\nhigher-profit mini-hotels -\ndo not belong in residential\nnieghborhoods. Massachusetts courts\nagree. To be clear, this Is different from\nCape Cod family rental traditions, people\nwho rent their own homes for periods in\nthe summer. The former are commercial\nenterprises. It is well documented by\nindependent institutions that allowing such\nuse of housing stock puts upward pressure\non all housing prices (not just affordable\nhousing) as local families compete for\nhousing with investors calculating the\nsizable STR revenue stream, and drives up\nthe price of housing rents for locals. We\nhave all heard endlessly the very\npredictable and very sad accounts of locals\ngetting kicked out of their \"winter rentals\"\nto make way for much more profitable\nAirbnb use. Nearly all the great and thriving\ntourist-dependent communities across this\ncountry have made a decision to prioritize\nlocals' need for housing by restricting such\nuse. There are myriad ways to do that\nwhich have withstood legal challenges by\nSTR operators and industry and which\nhave not adversely affected tourism. The\nLCP recommendation to deal with the need\nfor long-term rentals by paying people not\nto STR - through a property tax exemption\n- should be rejected. You may know that\npublic records show it originated not from\nthe years of public dialogue about\ninnumerable means to return some homes\nused as Airbnb businesses to use as\nhomes for locals, but rather from one\nchamber of commerce (which is on record\nopposing mainstream STR restrictions)\nemail to a town consultant after the public\nhousing surveys and focus groups closed.\nIts origin was one community out west\nwhose housing stock was devastated by\nSTRs; subsequent media reports that the\nTown leaders consider the program a flop,\nneeding to be restructured for any going\nforward purpose. In addition, the proposal\nshifts property tax burdens away from\nowners of housing stock not used as\nhomes to people who live in the homes\nthey own. By all accounts, extending the\nresidential tax exemption would not in any\ncase make up the revenue loss to incent\none not to STR - analysis shows that one\nmakes more in two months operating an\nAirbnb than one could earn by renting the\nsame property year round. Before looking\nto create new housing stock, consider\nwhat Town housing said to the Housing\nCommittee in an early Aironb conversation\nreported in meeting minutes: \"We have a\nlot of housing stock. It is just not being\nused to house locals.\" This town can\npreserve rental traditions and prioritize\nlocals in the use of existing housing stock.\nFinally, any LCP Committee member who\nowns a house in Barnstable they do not live\nin and instead monetizes housing as a\nshort-term rental business should not be\nparticipating in or influencing these land\nuse and housing discussions or any LCP\nrecommendation. Recall the Planning\nBoard debacle a few years back that had to\nbe \"redone\" due to an Airbnb financial\ninterest and failure to recuse. By\ninformation and belief and vacation rental\nads on-line, the LCP Committee has such\nan issue.\nThank you for the time you contribute to\nthe town and consideration of these views.\nHeather Hunt\nBarnstable resident\nCB\nVa\nCB\nCharles Bloom 10/24/24\nTo: Heather Hunt >\nHeather....EXCELLENT letter!!! @ @& @ @\nseees Charlie\nSent from my iPhone\nCharles Bloom 10/25/24\nTo: Larry Morin >\nSent from my iPhone\nBegin forwarded message:\nFrom: Charles Bloom\n< >\nDate: October 24, 2024 at 9:48:11AM\nEDT\nTo: heather hunt\n.

P\nGood evening -\nThis is a follow up to the LCP update to the\nCouncil last week. | am passing along two\nreactions for consideration, particularly in\nlight of the LCP public outreach that is\nsoon to follow. (Il was an LCP Committee\napplicant. All of those were told they would\nbe on an LCP Advisory Committee that\nwould be convened...Had there been follow\nthrough on that, | would have offered the\nfollowing in that forum. | appreciate\nconsideration in any case.) Could you be so\nkind as to share this with the LCP Vice\nChair as well?\nFirst, the summary said the LCP \"should\nalign with the Cape Cod Comission\nRegional Plan.\" As the LCP is explained to\nthe public in upcoming listening sessions,\nit would seem helpful to public\nunderstanding if it was clear that alignment\nwith the Cape Cod Commission Regional\nPolicy Plan is an option available to the\ntown at its discretion.

For example, do you know how\nmany businesses are operating in\nresidential neighborhoods by business\ntype? Do you know which type of business\nproduces the most complaints. Do you\nknow if complaints are trending up or\ndown? Do you know which neighborhoods\nhave the most complaints? Do we know\nhow many home occupations have required\nspecial permits in the past? If not, we'll\nprepare these reports for you.\nBetty is particularily interested in tracking\nhow much heavy equipment is being\nparked in residential neighborhoods. Do\nyou track equipment being used by\nbusinesses operating in the\nneighborhoods? Can you coordinate with\nthe RMV or the BPD acquire a vehicle\nregistration inventory by business owner?\nOn a more granular level, can you provide\nthe address for the house for which you\nprovided photographs. And, can you\nprovide a record of the case you pursued\nagainst this property owner? We're trying\nto understand why the Town is losing\nenforcement cases in the courts especially\nin watershed protection zones.\nlf there are other cases that you would like\nto highlight, we're very interested in\nreviewing cases in which a judge ruled that\nzoning as written is unenforceable.

Ells, Chair\nTo: Rob Brennan & Adam Stein, for Winn Companies\nFrom: Jillian Douglass, Trust Administrator\nDate: May 15, 2024\nRE: Winn Companies’ Development Funding Application to Trust for Harbor Vue at 307\nMain Street, Hyannis — ‘Trust Request for Additional Information\nThank you for your follow-up presentation to the Trust Board on May 13\". Overall, it\nwould appear that the Board is looking favorably on Winn’s Harbor Vue project, particularly in\nlight of your acknowledgement that the 12 permanently deed-restricted units that will be required\nby the ‘Town’s “inclusionary” ordinance to be Affordable to households of up to 65% AMI, will\nneed to be further subsidized as Affordable to households of 60% AMI, in order to meet the\nrequirements of your Tax Credit application. With that in mind, the Board is not inclined to\nconsider the 5% AMI differential as an additional project benefit. In addition, as you heard, the\nBoard members and our community seek to leverage the ‘Trust’s community investments to yield\nthe greatest degree of protected Affordability as we can, Winn’s offer to increase the number of\nprotected units from 19 to 25 is greatly appreciated and will expand the long-term affordability\nbenefits of this project.\nPlease accept the following as a formal request for written response by 3:30 pm on Friday\nMay 24\" to, among other things expressed via citizen comment, the following requests from the\nBoard:\n1. Please provide the slides deck that was presented at the Trust’s 5/3/24 meeting\n2. Please review the project's ability to maximize the number of affordable units, as much as\npossible, and provide an updated pro-forma reflecting your best proposal,\n3. Please provide updated income-tax based 2023 audited financial statements and audited\n2023 financial statements in accordance with GAAP for WinnCredit LLC and\nWinnDeveloment Company LLC, If there is information that you do not wish to be\ndisclosed beyond the members of the Board or that you seek to be kept confidential,\nplease know that all information, once conveyed to the Board, will become public\ninformation,\n4, Please include additional detail on the funding sources for which the project has and is\nexpected to apply.\n5. Please further explain specific uses of each funding line-item and request.\n6. Please explain any anticipated funding shortfalls or gaps.\n7. Please indicate any additional site concessions that your design teams may have\nconsidered or suggested to address the public comments expressed at the 5/13/24\nmeeting.\nWe look forward to receiving your updated submissions and continuing our discussions at the\nTrust’s next zoom meeting, which is currently scheduled for 2:00pm on Monday June 3“, If\nyou have questions or need clarifications, please feel free to e-mail or call me, Thank you\nvery much,\nSincerely,\n, Silber Douglass\nJillian Douglass\nTrust Administrator | Planning & Development\n‘Town of Barnstable | 367 Main Street] Hyannis, MA 02601\nJillian. douglass@town. barnstable.ma.us| 508-776-2162\nPlease provide the slides deck that was presented at the Trust's 5/3/24 meeting.\nPlease find attached the slide deck presented at the 5/3/24 meeting.\nPlease review the project's ability to maximize the number of affordable units, as much\nas possible, and provide an updated pro-forma reflecting your best proposal.\nAfter several meetings and discussions with the BAHGDT board, we have revised our\nperpetuity goals to better align with the program's expectations and the constructive\nfeedback from the board. We have increased the number of units in perpetuity by\napproximately 60%, resulting in a per unit cost closer to the desired $100,000 per unit for\nhigh impact/high-cost projects such as Harbor Vue. We trust that this third adjustment is\nviewed as meaningful and serves as a path forward.\nRequest: $2MM in AHT funds\nUnits in Perpetuity: 30 units\n= 12 units at 60% AMI\n= 18 units at 80% AMI (approx. $110k / unit)\nThis represents 25% of the total units and allows for 100% of the total units (120) to remain\non the SHI in perpetuity.\nPlease provide updated income-tax based 2023 audited financial statements and\naudited 2023 financial statements in accordance with GAAP for WinnCredit LLC and\nWinnDevelopment Company LLC. If there is information that you do not wish to be\ndisclosed beyond the members of the Board or that you seek to be kept confidential,\nplease know that allinformation, once conveyed to the Board, will become public\ninformation.\nAs outlined in Exhibit 10 of the application, for-profit developers are required to provide\nthree lender references, a requirement that Winn has fulfilled. The application does not\nrequire audited financial statements from for-profit developers. The relevant language from\nthe application is as follows:\n“Exhibit 10: Letters of interest from construction and/or permanent lenders; For-profit\ndevelopment, provide three lender references. For non-profit developers, provide current\nyear's operating budget and most recent audited financial statements.”\n4, Please include additional detail on the funding sources for which the project has and is\nexpected to apply.\nPlease find attached an updated sources and uses, pro-forma, and development budget.\nNote that funding sources are subject to change pending further discussions with federal\nand state agencies.\n5. Please further explain specific uses of each funding line-item and request.\nFunding sources, when capitalized, will be allocated to each line item outlined in the\ndevelopment budget. Note that funding sources and uses are subject to change pending\nfurther discussions with federal and state agencies.\n6. Please explain any anticipated funding shortfalls or gaps.\nThe current budget balances and adheres to programmatic funding limits set by each\nspecified source. Among the proposed sources is $2MM In matching funds from the Town of\nBarnstable, which is crucial to strengthening our application for competitive federal and\nState resources,\n7. Please indicate any additional site concessions that your design teams may have\nconsidered or suggested to address the public comments expressed at the 5/13/24\nmeeting.\nWe kindly suggest reviewing the Hyannis Main Street Historic District Commission video\nrecordings and meeting minutes (August 30, September 20, October 18) to gain insight into\nthe many adjustments and accommodations Winn has made in response to both the public\nand the board’s concerns. We hope our request for AHT funds is based on the mission and\nobjectives of the Affordable Housing Trust, whichis to create affordable housing in\nBarnstable for the benefit of low and moderate-income households, Harbor Vue meets and\nexceeds these criteria.\nHarbor Vue - Preliminary Sources & Uses - May, 2024\nSummary of Funding Sources\nPermanent Permanent\nSource of Funds Amount Amount/Unit\nFederal & State LIHTC Syndication Proceeds 44,637,000 371,975\nist Mortgage 9,030,831 75,257\nDeveloper Contributed Equity 1,100,342 9.170\nSubtotal (before Grants/Subordinate Debt) $ 54,768,173 $ 456,401\nInitial Funding (Gap) / Surplus $ (25, 130,660)\nMassHousing Workforce Housing Funds 3,200,000 26,667\nEOHLC Soft Sources & State Funding Resources 19,930,661 166,089\nBAHGDT 2,000,000 16,667\nTOTAL SOURCES $ 79,898,833 665,823\nFunding (Gap) / Surplus $ -\nConstruction Cost\nSource of Funds Amount /Unit\nAcquisition 5,695,170 47,460\nDirect Construction 51,287,307 427,393\nGeneral Development Costs 15,611,262 130,094\nTotal Developer Overhead & Fees/Reserves 7,305,094 60,876\nTOTAL SOURCES $ 79,898,833 $ 665,823\n“Anticipated sources subject to change\nHarbor Vue - Preliminary Development Budget - May, 2024\nTotal Development Budget |\nTotal $/Unit\nAcquisition\nPurchase Price $ 5,695,170 4 47,460\nAcquisition $ 5,695,170 §$ 47,460\nBuilding Architecture $ 2,185,271 3 18,211\nCivil Engineer 300,000 2,500\nEnergy Consultant 300,000 2,500\nGeotech Testing 75,000 625\nSurvey 25,000 208\nDesign $ 2,885,271 $ 24,044\n[Construction Oe\nBuilding Construction - Structures. $ 41,738,736 $ 347,823\nHard Construction Subtotal $ 41,738,736 $ 347,823\nGeneral Conditions/Contractor Contingency 4,497 349 37,478\nSubtotal $ 46,236,085 §$ 385,301\nContractor Overhead/Profit 1,252,162 10,435\nConstruction Subtotal (excl, Contingency) $ 47 488,247 § 395,735\nHard Cost Contingency 3,799,060 31,659\nConstruction $ 51,287,307 § 427,394\nInspecting Engineer $ 40,000 4§ 333\nEnvironmental Reports 40,000 417\nLegal: Organization 425,000 3,542\nTitle & Recording 90,000 750\nAccounting & Cost Cert. 75,000 625\nAppraisal & Market Study 45,333 a78\nSidewalk Improvements for Town of Barnstable 250,000 2,083\nAdministrative Expenses § 975,333 _ § 8,128\nFinancing OOO\nConstruction Loan Interest $ 6,324,566 4 52,705\nTE Bridge Loan Interest 597,681 4,981\nCarry Cost 241,500 2,013\nLender Legal Fees 450,000 417\nFinancing Fees 1,802,192 15,018\nSyndicator Due Diligence Costs/Fees 40,000 333\nFinancing 9,055,939\nTaxes & Insurance\nReal Estate Taxes $ 188,703 §$ 1,573\nP&P Bond Premium 393,130 3,276\nBuilders Risk Insurance 650,000 5417\nTaxes & Insurance $ 1,231,832 $ 10,265\nMiscellaneous/Other Costs\nFFRE $ 350,000 § 2,917\nSecurity 100,000 833\nOperating Loss 134,167 1,118\nFiber/TelData 250,000 2,083\nInitial Lease-up/Marketing 240,000 2,000\nMiscellaneous/Other Costs $ 1,074,167 § 6,951\nContingency\nSoft Cost Contingency i 388,719 $ 3,239\nContingency 388,719\nDeveloper Fee & Overhead\nDeveloper Fee and Overhead/Reserves 7,305,094 60,876\nDeveloper Fee & Overhead 7,305,094\n[Foetal Development Cost/ Eligible Basis $ 79,808,803 9 ~(665,023_\n“Anticipated development budget subject to change","text_sha256":"1bf32e36e602c3175b449d38d7027322c090d56f05321f06a5dc08cfe6402e8c","review_status":"Machine transcription;

The dealation after the\nposition name is again just a suggestion of the Code and\nthe position, but not a requirement if there are no\napplications on file. The Code does not say has to be a\nresident of Hyannis, but where possible would be\npreferred. To remove him from that position has to be at\nthe Appointments Committee level.\n| do not move people out of positions that the\nAppointments Committee voted on at the Council level,\nthis needs to come from the Appointments Committee\nmembers as a recommendation from them to the full\nCouncil. | do not and will not arbitrarily remove someone\nfrom a position that was voted on by all 13 members with\nonly 1 no vote and that was because he was on more\nthan 1 committee, not because of his address. There was\nno objection from the Public (including yourself at the time\nof the vote) The Appointments Committee was well aware\nof his address, he did not hide it on his application, but\nthe members still choose to put him there.\n| can’t change the makeup of the Committee by removing\nthe designation after his name, as that is the position. If\nthe Appointment Committee current members decide to\nmove him into the business owner spot, then that takes\nmotion made by a member of the Appointments\nCommittee and a vote of the Appointments Committee to\nthe full Council.\nThe Code CLEARLY states that if there are no\napplications on file to fit the criteria that is open (yours\nwas submitted 10 months later with no others submitted\neven though the vacancy occurred in April of 2023), then\nthey have the authority to place them in the position of\ntheir choice according to the Code as it states WHERE\nPOSSIBLE, at the time of his application, and the fact\nthere was no others and they had cases back logged, the\nAppointments Committee made the choice they did. In\norder to remove him from that position, it takes a vote of\nthe Appointments Committee and then 2 readings at the\nCouncil level.\n| have not been made aware of by any members of the\nAppointments Committee that this is what they would like\nto do, if | do hear from the Chair and Vice Chair that they\nare going to take this up at the meeting on March 29,\n2024 then that will also be included on the Agenda of the\nAppointments Committee on March 29.

Here are some of my\nInitial thoughts based on our site walk that\nmight be helpful to you as you start to think\nabout your bourgeoning project:\n1. The bogs appear (from afar) to have\nsucceeded to a forested red maple\nswamp. Eric S. and | observed one\nremnant earthen berm, but the\nassociated water control structure had\nbeen removed long ago. Given the\ncurrent condition of the bogs and\nproximity to head of tide, I'm not sure\nif there is a need to intervene there. It\nmay all be salt marsh one day (and\nthat's ok). That being said it might be\nworth it to conduct a recon to identify\nother areas of berms and water\ncontrol structures. Those structures\nand berms could be removed to allow\nunimpeded access by the tides over\ntime. It's unclear how Stewart's Creek\nhas been manipulated in that reach of\nthe system (the early aerials and topo\nmaps don’t provide significant help in\ndetermining a baseline condition), but\nthe channel appears to be\nstraightened, over-widened and\nshallow. It’s also pushed up against\nthe western valley wall (golf course\nside), which isn’t typical\ngeomorphology, especially when we\nsee a Straight channel reach\nassociated with it.\n. Both Stewart's and Joshua’s Creek\nhave culverted sections from their\nheadwater ponds under W. Main\nStreet and Scudder Ave. These would\nbe incredibly expensive to daylight. As\n| mentioned, it would be worth\nspeaking with Brad Chase, who is with\nMA Division of Marine Fisheries. He\nwould be able to provide (or point to)\nsome historical fisheries resources,\ndiscuss the current state of the\nresource, and what would potentially\nneed to be done to improve it (if\nanything). He lives in Harwich, so he\nmight even be willing to swing by at\nsome point.\n. Visually, it’s unclear if the southern\nend of the peninsula has been filled.\nEric S. mentioned there had been\nsome on site soil sampling conducted\nwhich could help answer that\nquestion. Even if there was fill placed\nhere, it would be incredibly expensive\n(and possibly cost-prohibitive) to\nremove.\n4. Anecdotally, the estuary appears to be\ntidally restricted. Very little Spartina —\nmostly phragmites, areas of die-off,\netc. | haven‘t read the Woods Hole\nGroup post-restoration monitoring\nreport for the Corps culvert, but my\nunderstanding is that there hasn't\nbeen significant ecological\nimprovement (if any) in the system\nsince the culvert was installed. | think\nits critical for you to better understand\nthe design and function of the Corps’\ncontrol structure — What Is the O-+M\nfor the structure? How was It\ndesigned? What constraints are\npresent (e.g., flood risk to low-lying\ninfrastructure) that may have\nimpacted the ability of the Corps to\nfully restore tidal exchange? The\nSurrounding upland areas are heavily\ndeveloped, and | imagine there might\nbe a flood risk if no restriction was\npresent.\nRelative to DER, | mentioned that this\nproject isn’t quite ready for “prime time”\nyet. Below are some general suggestions\nthat will help you move your ideas into a\nmore formal project:\n1. The issues within the estuary/bog/\npeninsula need to be clearly\nunderstood. There appears to be\nsomething wrong, but what Is it? Do\nyou have data or evidence to support\nit? Do you need more information?\nThink about symptoms vs. cause. You\nshould be focusing more on the cause.\n. Once you understand what's wrong,\nyou can more clearly define the initial\nproject scope. What are the key (and\nfeasible) changes you can undertake\nto create real change?\n. A project sponsor needs to be defined.\nThat could be the Town, NGO, etc. The\nsponsor needs to be engaged and\nsupportive.\n. All landowners within the project area\nof impact (at least the ones that are\nknown) should be identified and you'll\nneed to gain their support. In some\ncases, if work is to occur on their\nproperty, you'll need their signature on\npermit applications.\nGood luck, and let me know If you have any\nquestions!\nEric C.

The\nArmy Corp. may have a copy on file.\nIf it is decided that a larger culvert is\nappropriate, do abutters to the Creek\nunderstand that increased tidal flows\nmight expose their properties to an\nincreased chance of flooding?

No need for a reply. |am\nwriting to flag some issues following\nMonday's Planning Board meeting about\nthe HPP.\n1. Public Presentation and Comment on\nMajor Plans. The Planning Department put\nout a revised draft Housing Production\nPlan this spring. It had not been talked\nabout for over a year, and the new draft has\nnot been presented substantively\nanywhere to my knowledge. Why is the\nsubstance of major plans presented to\nencourage public awareness\nand engagement?\nThe HPP was first on a Housing Committee\nagenda. No public showed up. It was then\non two Planning Board agendas. No public\nshowed up at either meeting. No member\nof either committee said why is no one\nhere? What was done to get public input?\nHas it been presented to civic\nassociations? Should we do something?\n| sent the Planning Department 2 pages of\npublic comment before the Housing\nCommittee. | said | could not be there, and\nplease record it as if | was. When | later\nwatched and saw no mention, | followed\nup. The staff reply was we didn't know you\nmeant it for the Housing Committee. They\nsaid it would be sent to the Planning Board.\nThe only mention of any public comment at\nthe Planning Board was my subsequent\nverbal request for maps to accompany land\nuse changes, which the Planning Board\nChair said that was up to the LCP.\nIn the April 25th Town Manager Report,\nMark Ells said public comment on the HPP\nwould be gathered and posted. That did\nnot happen. Was there really no verbal or\nwritten comment? If | was literally the only\nperson to send in comments, is that not a\nflag that there is a problem with public\nawareness efforts? Or is no public\nengagement a goal because that is what it\nlooks like to observers.\nCould you consider encouraging Town\nstaff to give substantive presentations\nto the public on key draft plans that\naffect nearly all residents? Take\nadvantage of the fact that we have\ncivic associations where residents\nmeet, have other community groups\nand gatherings, and so on? These\ndocuments sit on the town website\npage 3 layers deep, easily available to\nthose who know to look, and how to\nlook. That's almost no one.\nSimilarly, the LCP draft chapters on\nland use and housing were put out for\n2. Maps with Proposed Land Use\nChanges. On Monday, | asked the Planning\nDepartment for maps that correspond with\nthe land use changes in the HPP. Staff said\nthey would check in with the LCP\nleadership about maps. The Planning\nBoard Chair's verbal response to the map\nrequest was to say the HPP sets out\nstrategies and the LCP would determine\nthe locations of zoning changes. Well, the\nLCP already put out land use and housing\nchapters for feedback without maps (and\nwithout any substantive presentation at\nvillage meetings) and since April has\nignored requests for maps corresponding\nto proposed land use changes\nIt is unreasonable and pointless to ask for\npublic comment on land use changes\nwithout maps. Withholding maps is not\nnew. The first time | tracked a Zoning issue\nhere it as a former Councilor leading a land\nuse change proposal at an ad hoc\ncommittee for ~6 months. He withheld\nmaps until the very last meeting. The maps\nshowed he owned land where the land\nuse changes - what's called the strategy,\nnow - were being proposed. This\nseparating of land use change proposals\nand maps/locations is a learned tactic to\nminimize reactions, in my view....\n| redlined the prior HPP draft and the\nrevised version issued for comment. The\nPlanning Dept scrubbed out reference to\nchanging zoning 1/2 mile around certain\nvillages - which language Ells was asked\nabout last year and met with a really\nvigorous denial of any such proposal.\nThat's on video. In this version issued for\ncomment, the village names are gone as is\nthe reference to 1/2 mile circumference\naround them where the prior draft said\nchange zoning here.\nEarlier records, back in 2022, show the\nPlanning Department telling the consultant\nit \"had a lot of concern with the wording of\nthe Goals and Strategies being public\nfacing in the current format.\" The land use\nchange was not a concern - being direct\nwith the public was.\nSo today, we have a scrubbed document to\nmitigate public reaction and no maps.\nSee images below that show the editing\nout of the specific zoning change\nproposals that Mark Ells publicly and\nrepeatedly denied existed when asked\nabout the prior draft.\n3. Planning Board members publicly\nquestion the validity of the new Ad Hoc\nSubcommittees (audio from Channel 18\nattached) and it reserved acting on the\nHPP until after the Ad Hocs review\nit. One member also expressed concern\nabout hoops the Ad Hoc Committees\nrepresent to get anything done. Not one\nmember of the Planning Board ever raised\na concern about the prior improperly\nformed and operated Ad Hoc Committees\nthat completely took over zoning without\ntelling the public about that up front for\nyears and years. The Planning Board\ndecided to have the HPP come back to it\nafter the Ad Hoc Committees review.\nThanks for taking the time to read.\nHeather Hunt\n2024 changes to 2023 Draft Plan #1\n3.

Too strident but please.\n---------- Forwarded message ---------\nFrom: heather hunt\n< =\nDate: Wed, Feb 26, 2025 at 6:10AM\nSubject: LCP reset?\nTo: Kupfer, James\n<james.kupfer@town.barnstable.ma.us>,\nElls, Mark\n<mark.ells@town.barnstable.ma.us>\nCc: Craig Tamash\n<craig.tamash@town.barnstable.ma.us>,\nKris Clark\n<kris.clark@town.barnstable.ma.us>\nGood morning -\n| had a chance to watch the last few LCP\nmeetings. | am again out of town and could\nnot be there.\nThe last meeting seemed to proceed\nwithout a quorum. Five members to my\nrecollection. My belief is the Chair knows\nthis is a problem and rather than be\nstraight about it, she chooses to skip doing\nroll call, and to skip announcing a quorum.\nLast night was also thin member\nattendance.\n| was initially selected for the LCP and then\nLevesque, Steinhilber, Cullum and those\nthat follow them sliced me off the slate and\nput on a member who Is a no show. | would\nbe there and contributing as the\ncommitment called for. Someone else\nwhose interview was basically one word\nanswers was selected. It was stunning. The\nguy didn't have to display thought or even\nstring words together and got on. He has\nsince dropped away. The LCP first\nchair was selected after willfully violating\nethics (twice in one matter). He was\nrewarded with an LCP seat. Another\nmember | believe sat on my ZBA hearing\nwhile conflicted and participated in\nhanding me an adverse ruling. He only\nstepped off later after my lawyer asked for\na conflict check before a second matter.\nThat was known to all in Town Hall. The\ncurrent Chair also chose not to disclose a\nfinancial interest in her application that\ncaused her to recuse from housing only\nafter participating for two years.\nMy point is perhaps the vetting and\nselection process had issues from the get\ngo, and it's time to adjust.\nRecall Jenkins sent a written\ncommunications to all who applied, were\ninterviewed and were not selected by Mark\nElls. Those included people like Betty\nLudke, Bob Schulte, etc. They were told in\nthat letter that they would be convened\nregularly as a member of the Advisory\nCommittee. That never happened. Not\nonce. When | asked Jenkins about that, she\ndenied the stated representation about\nconvening the Advisory Committee. That\nwas unsurprising. So | sent her her own\nletter saying what | said it said about\nconvening. She then went silent of course.\nShe had her outcome all set up - after\nsingle-handedly without any Council\ndiscussion announcing an end to\nvillage engagement and planning - and did\nnot want the CCC-oriented outcome she\nput to paper disrupted. Still others\nactive citizens applied who did not even\nget an interview.\nThe point is there are lots of interested\ncitizens who were turned away who now\nlook up at a bench of only 5. | look up and\nsee 2/5 up there having had conflict\nissues.\nThe Chair last night told the room she\ndidn't need to listen to the people. This\nwas in line with the series of village\nmeetings in April '24 where she asked\npeople not to discuss the issues, but to\ngrab dots and stick them on pre-\nprepared statements. One of those\nmeetings is on video. If it wasn't so awful it\nwould be funny, | actually counted the\nnumber of times she asked people not to\ndiscuss the issues. She would make a\nfunny college drinking game - a drink every\ntime Northcross says we didn't come to\nlisten to what people have to say, please\nstop.\nlam writing because bad processes make\nbad outcomes. | hope you can find a way to\ncourse correct.\nA lot of citizens have appreciated watching\nJim Kupfer lead in a new way, with plain\nEnglish and respect. So refreshing. People\ntext me during meetings all the time about\nhow wonderful it is to see and hear a\nstraight-shooter.\nIt would be excellent if there was a reset\nwith his leadership and new members to\ntake the place of those who have left their\nseats empty and a new public process\nthat does what's always resulted in good\npublic input - ask the villages to put their\nthoughts to paper. When you ask that, you\nget engagement. When you have a Chair\nasking people not to talk and saying there\nis no need to listen, it is utterly predictable\nthat no one shows up. |am a good\nexample. | don't show up for comment and\n| know lots of people who similarly choose\nto stay away from this Committee. The\nChair gives a no listen message, cuts\ncomment to 2 minutes because 180\nseconds is too much, and 2/3 of the LCP\nchairs waited for residents to call out\nconflicts. Who would really show up for\nthat?\nThe worst outcome is a return of people\nwho chose to step away and come back\nonly after being called out for that. This\nrequests a broader reset.\nThanks for considering my views.\nApologies if this sounds strident. This\ntroubled public process stuff gets really\nold.\nHeather Hunt\nFrom: Heather Hunt\nTo: Betty Ludtke\nDr. Kristin Terkelsen\nCharlie Bloom\nFebruary 26, 2025 at 9:30AM\n| followed with this -\nBy the way, the person who was selected\nafter giving one word answers to interview\nquestions took 4 homes off the market and\nconverted them to full time Airbnbs.

May 24 Draft .docx\nPlease find attached a version of the\nrecently released Housing Production Plan\nDraft redlined against the January 2023\nversion, which was to be finalized in March\n2023 per the schedule on the Planning\nDept's website.\n| had the January 2023 version\nbecause the Planning Dept scrolled\nthrough it at the Jan 2023 Housing\nCommittee meeting and so | asked for it. |\ndon't have time to read another 130+\npages so | did a doc compare that just\nshows the changes. It's a useful look.\nSome notable changes, among others you\nmay see:\n1. Redeveloping/rezoning Villages. p.\n55 The 2023 version proposed to move\nformed based code from Hyannis to the\nCCC Community Activity Centers\nOsterville and Barnstable Village, and\nJenkins added Centerville with no\nexplanation. The CCC called for multi-\nfamily by right 1/4 mile around village\ncenters. Jenkins grew that in the\n2023 version to 1/2 mile.\nFrom the Channel 18 video of the 2023\npresentations, | took images and out them\ninto a presentation to the OVA and this\nzoning change proposal is in the\nworks, it's a big deal. etc. This was\nconsistent with Planning's 2020\nannouncement to Housing that\nthey planned to move form based code to\nother villages, which statement in minutes\nthey've denied over and over. Ells came to\na later OVA meeting and was asked about\nthis image showing his staff saying move\nthis to those 3 villages. He said over and\nover there is no proposal to change zoning\nin the other villages. | said Mark we are\nliterally looking at your staff's work, not an\ninterpretation of it. It is in writing on the\nscreen you are looking at (and it was well\ndown the road - on the way to Planning\nand then TC for March adoption.) He stuck\nto his script that there is no proposal. He\nlater called it misinformation. This is all on\nYou Tube.\nThe 2024 version has deleted the\nreference to zoning that was implemented\nin the Hyannis and also deleted the\nspecific villages to where it would be\nmoved. It deletes the reference to 1/2 mile\naround the 3 villages and changes to\n\"around villages\" or something like that.\nIt's now a vague passage that goes to the\nsame place but in such an unclear way\nthat no one knows what it means and thus,\npeople will not react as they would if this\nwas plainly stated as It was in 2023. This\nsame vague strategy is in the draft LCP as\nwell.\n2. Affordable Housing %. The # slipped\ndown from April 2023 to now from 7.23 to\n6.78. Of course It did. It will keep doing\nthat with the build build model.\n3. Accessory Affordable Apartment\nProgram. When the ADU ordinance was\nunder consideration, Jenkins reported at a\nmeeting that the Accessory Affordable\nApartment Program (a deed restriction)\nwould stay on the books but was expected\nto diminish by attrition. That program is an\naccessory dwelling unit permit program\nfor unit rental to tenants below a certain\nincome level. My sister watched the ZBA\nagendas and did see that unit after unit\nwere dropping out, as predicted after the\nADU ordinance passed. In the ADU matter,\nthe Council did not even talk about\nFelicia's suggestion to include an\naffordability component in the rule. Mort\nand others strongly opposed Felicia's\nsuggestion for that in public comment.\nNow, the Planning Dept is saying let's\nfinancially incent this program that they\nknew would suffer from attrition and did\nnot want to track. On tracking the\naffordability apartments they now want to\nincent, the former Housing staff literally\nsaid no one has been tracking these units\nanyway. We can find that. It was flippant.\n4. Planning Assumptions based on\npeople who buy homes with a guest\nbedroom or office. The plan leaps to\nlabel a \"mismatch\" between how many\npeople live in a home and how many\nbedrooms a home has means there Is a\nneed for more studios and one bedrooms.\nPretending to mind read homeowners and\nmake assumptions about people's choices\nis not the way to justify converting single\nfamilies to multi-families or to let\ndevelopers cram units into Main St.\nHyannis.\nHope this is helpful.\nHeather Hunt","text_sha256":"096e33bd05e687238d922b2809780ac8e0337df864c4170317e0e98fc1511a0a","review_status":"Machine transcription; not independently verified","flags":[],"images":[{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-18/0060-01.webp","sha256":"9f4e3ffbe8be3d3918cacfbe7e325edaebec4c85af136ce93adf82781b6286a4","width":1613,"height":2000,"crop_points":[0,0,967.5,1200],"bytes":62926},{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-18/0060-02.webp","sha256":"cd045f8b2b81f2775a1418fcf9283dcfcd0f77d0bd42e7de314ebb803b2f50b4","width":1613,"height":2000,"crop_points":[0,1200,967.5,2400],"bytes":90772},{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-18/0060-03.webp","sha256":"a0b43c852979a9fad4c5cddd792be7708dbc90a81891c4f941d39d867d7642c2","width":1613,"height":2000,"crop_points":[0,2400,967.5,3600],"bytes":113660},{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-18/0060-04.webp","sha256":"36c3dc1fe816c8b948f2ae922db343c42854caf0614f5b2b7234d82efaf8c92b","width":1613,"height":2000,"crop_points":[0,3600,967.5,4800],"bytes":94440},{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-18/0060-05.webp","sha256":"0c9e222f2c15c8e11c6074b85566a6f0e9949091d3b3c12adc13d2877f3bc5df","width":1613,"height":2000,"crop_points":[0,4800,967.5,6000],"bytes":111102},{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-18/0060-06.webp","sha256":"d30fae27af3e00079ae0bef7a88269bb9ade743c425bc05535f76a10ff4859e4","width":1613,"height":2000,"crop_points":[0,6000,967.5,7200],"bytes":97256},{"url":"documents/TBR-0472-18/0060-07.webp","sha256":"6210db66c3f29a1b5ab41cbbf5331f4ada0b1953aa20236e53f26f40ae23d77a","width":1613,"height":1070,"crop_points":[0,7200,967.5,7842.0],"bytes":9524}]}]}
