approved.
Chairman’s Report: Peter Boyce reported that he had been phoned by Patty Roggeveen that
morning with the news that the BOS had voted the previous night to say that the HPIC should put
its work on hold and should not conduct any business until the BOS had had a chance to understand
the Committee’s priorities. He noted that, because of this call, he had not printed the posted agenda
to hand out. He then turned the floor over to Ms. Roggeveen.
Ms. Roggeveen repeated that the BOS, in a unanimous vote the previous night had put the work of
the HPIC on hold until they could understand the priorities of the Committee and could give it some
direction. She noted that Selectman Atherton was concerned about the whole water quality issue
and how the HPIC priorities fit into that issue. She also noted that it had been three (sic) years since
the HPIC had presented the priorities and that it was time for the whole BOS to tackle the issues
relating to the Harbor. Bam LaFarge noted that the Harbor Plan had a whole section on Water
Quality.
The Committee had a number of concerns dealing with being put on hold at this time as the summer
is approaching. Ms. Roggeveen said that the BOS would tackle this discussion immediately and that
only a few weeks would be lost.
Ms. Roggeveen said the Board would be appointing a Committee to work on the fertilizer home rule
petition at its meeting the following week, and that anyone who wanted to be on that committee had
to apply by 10:00 am next Wednesday, although the earlier the better. She also noted that the BOS
would be selecting the members and that recommendations of the HPIC would not automatically be
accepted.
After a short further discussion the meeting adjourned.
Old Business: No old business.
Adjournment: The meeting adjourned at 5:49 pm
Next Meetings:, May 13 and 27, 2010, 5:00pm at Nantucket Land Bank Meeting Room
Respectfully submitted by Peter Boyce, Secretary
