APPOINTMENTS & HEARINGS:
Review of CPA Project Proposed for May 2016 Town Meeting - Great River Boat Ramp Improvement Project:
Catherine Laurent, Director of Public Works indicated she has been directed by the
Town Manager to defer any comments regarding the present application relative to the Great River Boat Ramp Improvement project at this time.
There are questions the Town Manager would like to address, and therefore it is requested the Community Preservation Committee postpone any consideration of this application to a subsequent meeting.
Motion made by Mr. Larkin to accept the request of the Town Manager, and postpone the consideration of the Great River Boat Ramp Improvement project application to a subsequent meeting.
Motion seconded by Ms. Waygan.
VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0.
Roll Call Vote:
Mr. Halpern, yes Mr. Larkin, yes
Ms. Waygan, yes Mr. Shaw, yes
Mrs. Sherman, yes Opposed, none
Ms. Laurent indicated that applications may be forthcoming for two additional boat ramps in town. This includes the replacement of the float structure at the Ockway Bay Landing and the float replacement at the Pirates Cove Landing.
With permitting that is almost always time consuming, it was recommended the CPC consider votes to set aside funds that would be anticipated in future years for the repair and upgrade of the Town’s boat ramp facilities. It was suggested the CPC consider bonding as a method to appropriate funding. With available free cash in the CPC reserves, it was advised this action may not be necessary. The matter was taken under advisement at this time.
It was noted that permitting and re-design for the proposed double ramp at the Great River boat ramp may take up to two years. This would include engineering, design and mitigation requirements.
