Boundary - Steve suggested we change the boundary to run west along
the railroad tracks to a point west of Ackerly Pond Road,
and then south to the Main Road. He suggested it because
of the run-off problems affecting the creeks in the area.
I. Development
Recommend all previously stated requirements.
For the area between Rt 25 and North Road, east and west of
Albertson Lane, where large fresh water wetlands exist, we suggest
upzoning, cluster development, positive declaration, state or
local purchase of the sites between Chapel & Albertson. On the
east side of Albertson, duplicate the Hallock's Bay area recommenda-
tions.
Valerie suggested we assemble a list of ' sites for the open space
committee to investigate. Prime area might be the 200= acres in
this area. Should also be suggested to Nature Conservancy and
other groups for consideratibn.
Question was asked how the D.E.C. and other groups, specifically
Nature Conservancy, manage the lands they acquire?
On the Sage property, suggested we duplicate. the Hallock's Bay
recommendations. 2/88 the developers proposed a change of zone
to build 40 townhouses on the high ground, and donate the wetlands
to the Town.
Parcel east of Beixidon is zoned'~R, resort residential, which
will allow motel or restaurant construction. Some members are
opposed to this use, some support it as one of the few sites
on open Bay zoned for this much needed tourist industry facility.
Suggested that we recommend the parcels on the west side of
Arshamomaque Pond be acquired as open space; recommend we consider
Sage property for significant habitat designation.

4. Flooding & Erosion
Steve suggested we recommend that the barrier island south of
Port of Egypt be protected and rebuilt. Perhaps it should be
tied to the mainland east of the marinas, to protect the entrance
to Arshamomaque Pond. Don asked why the island changed: Steve
outlined the most popular Lheory that the owner moored a barge
on the westerly end of the island, and the tides etc. did the rest.
If the island were tied to the mainland, the area west of POE
could be a mooring area or marina site. The entrance to Arshamomaque
would be protected from the marina pollution now carried into the
Pond by the tide, a significant habitat area would be more protected,
and the large eel grass bed at the mouth of the channel would be
protected and could be enlarged.
