The Hearing notice was read aloud in accordance with posting requirements. The Hearing begins the second part of the road taking process. The May 2007 Town Meeting approved the first petition submission to expend $5,000 for the referenced roads within Quashnet Valley Estates to provide interest and debt issuance expense estimates.
The cost estimate prepared by the DPW including legal and engineering fees amounts to $264,171.70. The actual cost to be borne by 112 property owners is $2,358.68. This is the maximum allowable charge by the Town of Mashpee for this betterment. It was disclosed the betterment can be spread over a twenty year period. A second petition is required by 51% of the property owners to allow the petition to move forward to Town Meeting.
A legal issue has arisen regarding the ownership of the roads with the layout of the Quashnet Valley Estates. A project developer, Anthony LaCava maintains the association easements of the subject roads. Before the Town is able consider the acceptance of the road conversion, it is necessary for the easement rights to be relinquished. To move the process forward, the association must respond to the legal matter.
Many concerned residents were in attendance, and the Selectmen agreed to discuss the road conversion in the normal hearing sequence. To answer past questions regarding the process, it was noted the Town does not take the initiative to take over roads. The process involves a majority of the homeowners who are in favor of a private to public road conversion.
The Selectmen opened the Hearing to solicit comment.
Anthony Cocuzzo resident of Snead Drive and Board of Directors member stated that he was not aware of the legal issue. He stated the matter has not been discussed by the association.
Mr. Cocuzzo asked of the obligation relative to the betterment assessment payment. In response, it was stated the obligation is reflected on the tax bill or it is shown as a lien on the property. Mr. Cocuzzo also asked about the 20 year process and if interest is accrued. It was disclosed the annual interest payment is spread over a twenty year period if that is the desired method of payment. The homeowner has the option to pay the betterment in full or spread the cost over a twenty year period. The maximum interest payment is 5%. If the petition moves forward at Town Meeting, a letter would be issued to the residents outlining the payment process.
Mr. Cocuzzo indicated the Quashnet Valley Estates Association does not want any signage to be removed if the conversion moves forward.
If a legal problem arises, Mr. Cocuzzo asked if the association is able to re-petition the Town for the conversion. For an example, Mr. Cocuzzo asked if in three years, is it possible for the association to re-petition.
In response, the Selectmen indicated that if the petition is deferred, the process may have to start from the beginning or the Town may take the option to close the door on the petition. At this time, the Town is considering a moratorium for the taking of roads. The decision is expected to be made in July based on budgetary constraints and the need to maintain the existing Town roads.
The timeframe to petition the Town for the warrant was explained. In accordance with the Town bylaw petitions must be received by the second Monday in July and/or the second Monday in February to allow for advertisement of the warrant 30 days prior to Town Meeting.
For clarification, the Town Manager indicated the legal issue was raised by members of the association.
Robert Crowley Snead Drive stated that presently, Anthony LaCava owns the roads. Therefore, the association cannot give up roads they do not own. Mr. Crowley asked if vacant lots are charged a betterment assessment. The answer was affirmative. All properties are assessed a betterment assessment.
The following information was disclosed. Of the 112 property owners, 70 signed the initial petition five years ago.
Snead Drive resident Michael Drummey stated the he is mortified and if it is not known who owns the roads, maybe they need a different association board.
The Selectmen explained that it is necessary for 51% of the residents to petition the Town in the two step process. The Selectmen do not partake or initiate the taking. The road conversion process is strictly a decision of the residents petitioning the Town.
Mr. Winn of Miller Circle asked why the residents are in attendance if they do not have ownership of the roads.
The Town Manager clarified the decision rests upon Mr. LaCava. To date, there is no action on record with the Registry of Deeds.
It was agreed the legal question is very important.
Mr. Cocuzzo stated that he has been a member of the board for the past four years and never once has there been an issue of ownership. He assumed the residents owned the roads, they are private. Also there was never a question with the petition. Mr. Cocuzzo indicated the Town spent $5,000 of taxpayers money without telling them there is a legal issue regarding ownership of the roads.
In response, the Town Manager indicated the question was raised by the abutters of the roadways of Quashnet Valley Estates. Since the question arose, Mrs. Mason stated she felt this was important to notify the Selectmen.
Brian Sullivan Hogan Drive stated that he is opposed to the takeover. He enjoys the quality of life and has fear of the unknown costs associated to the repair of the roads. Mr. Sullivan also related concern with respect to the use of the roadways as possible short-cut routes. For this reason, he is opposed to the road conversion.
It was noted the association only maintains the roads and common areas.
A resident proposed the association hire an attorney to research the deeds and notify the homeowners. It was stated the cost of $2,358.68 is appealing, but the residents need to be careful of what they are giving away.
Albert Peterson asked if there is a difference in the responsibility of public safety as it pertains to the police and fire department with a conversion from private to public. He also asked if plowing would continue. In response, the Selectmen indicated there is no change in the Town responsibilities.
For clarification purposes, Rodney Collins, Chief of Police indicated the association has the ability to petition the Board of Selectmen to allow for the enforcement of speeding zones and other enforceable traffic regulations under MGL Chapter 90, Section 18. This can be done on a private and/or public roadway.
It was noted the association members should be aware if the Town takes over the roadways, the Town would maintain a 10’ easement on each side of the road. If it is deemed necessary, a sidewalk could be constructed. Presently, Mr. LaCava owns the 10’ easement.
Mr. Drummey indicated he was aware the roads were Mr. LaCava’s property three years ago.

Tom Mayo outlined the progress coordinated by the staff level Energy Committee. The alternative energy development status is presently split between two categories, Wind and Solar.
It was noted an October 2008 petition article was approved by Town Meeting to authorize the Town to borrow up to $50,000 for the installation of solar panels for the roof of the Mashpee Council on Aging building.
Upon detailed review, the committee has recommended the Town consider gaining Town Meeting approval in October 2009 to allow for the modification of the article to include additional municipal properties.
Additional research has found the Town could apply for new state and federal grant opportunities including tax incentives. An amendment of the October 2008 article to expand the use of the funding would allow for more flexibility, and most likely reduced bid quotations. In addition to the Council on Aging solar panels, the committee has recommended to expand the project to include the Town Hall and possibly other municipal buildings. A draft RFP for the solar photovoltaic project to include the Town Hall was presented to the Selectmen. The Board was also in receipt of a draft RFP for the installation of a solar photovoltaic system on the roof of the Council on Aging building.
After continued discussion, the Selectmen agreed to seek support from the Cape & Vineyard Electric Cooperative. It was agreed the matter would be re-visited in late July or early August. With respect to the amendment of the proposed article, the Board asked if the original petitioner would be required to amend the motion.

Ms. Bradshaw indicated the current phone system is not reliable and sometimes not operational. There is a health and safety concern for parents and others unable to reach the school. Replacement is unavailable and maintenance costs are high.
With careful financial management and planning, funds from this year’s school budget would support the new purchase. Ms. Bradshaw explained that installation in the summer months is more favorable than disruption during the school year.
