President, Alan Costa; Brown, Lindquist, Fenuccio & Raber Architects, Kurt Raber; Architectural Consulting Group ("ACG') & Owners Project Managers ("OPM'), Donald Velozo and Michael Josefek; Resident, Jesse Dutra; were also present at call to order. Club Consultant Group Managing Director, Christopher Calvert joined the meeting via video conference. A. CONVENE IN OPEN SESSION: PUBLIC COMMENTS/STAFF ANNOUNCEMENTS: a. Chairman Paterson announced that Land Bank Property Foreman, Jeff Pollock, was working with the National Park Service to assist with wild fires out west for the next two weeks and wished him well. b. Chairman Paterson reminded the Commission that Miacomet Golf Course was hosting a scramble tournament and members appreciation reception to celebrate the grand reopening of the clubhouse on Wednesday, August 15, 2018 and all Commissioners and Land Bank staff were invited. c. Mr. Dutra addressed the Commission regarding a notice of lien which was reinstated against his property at 46 Vesper Lane on July 25, 2018 in the amount of $12,762. Mr. Dutra claimed that he effectively lost the first-time home buyer's exemption because it was not transferred to his second home purchase. Commissioner Glidden recused himself from the discussion and departed the meeting at 4:04 p. m. Ms. Campese explained that the original lien for $4,000 had been placed on his property when he claimed the first-time home buyer's "M" exemption on March 14, 2005. In 2006, he purchased and immediately moved into his current residence at 76 Hummock Pond Road, which triggered his noncompliance with the "actual domicile" requirement of the "M" exemption. In 2010, he attended a Land Bank meeting and requested that the Commission waive the fee plus penalty and interest Land Bank Commission Page 2 August 14, 2018 that accumulated on his 46 Vesper Lane property. The Commission voted to waive the accrued interest, contingent upon the $4,000 fee and $1,000 penalty being paid within 60 days. Mr. Dutra did not submit payment, and therefore the interest was reinstated and an unsubordinated lien was placed against the property for the fee, penalty and interest on February 24, 2010. Commissioner Jelleme asked Mr. Dutra what he thought would be a fair and Mr. Dutra suggested that transferring the exemption to his current home, or at least waiving the interest, would be fair. Chairman Paterson thanked Mr. Dutra for his comments, indicating that the Commission would take it under advisement. Mr. Dutra departed the meeting at 4:15 p.m. Commissioner Glidden reentered the meeting at 4.-16p. m. 2. GOLF BUSINESS: a. Miacomet Golf Course — Manager's Report of Temporary Facilities Update: Mr. Costa displayed interior photographs of the restaurant and bar areas and informed the Commission that the restaurant was open for limited breakfast and lunch items, with an expanded menu starting this week. Commissioner Paterson thanked ACG, Mr. Costa and Dane DeCarlo for their hard work in getting the clubhouse open for business. b. Miacomet Golf Course — Clubhouse Design Update: Mr. Velozo stated that the project is currently on budget and on schedule, and that they would work diligently to contain the costs going through the final design phase. He reiterated how important it was for the architect to stay on schedule, recognizing that seasonal conditions on Nantucket can be challenging. Mr. Velozo's main concern was the potential for delays during the bidding phase of the project. He also noted that an increase in tariffs after September 1st may affect the price of raw materials needed for construction. Mr. Raber informed the Commission that his team was working on the kitchen and the pro shop design elements and preparing the technical drawings for the final bid package. The plan is to issue the Invitation for Bids in the first two weeks of September to meet the target date for a contract award on October 31, 2018. Mr. Raber, Mr. Costa, Mr. Velozo, Mr. Josefek and Mr. Calvert departed the meeting at 4:38 p. m. 3.

Therefore, she was selling her home to buy a larger space and planned to pay the fee with the proceeds of the sale but was requesting a waiver of penalty and interest.
