Facility Project("MGC SEAHSF")—Furnishing Discussion/Warrant: Ms. Bell said that
management at MGC had picked out furnishings and was working on additional pricing for
equipment for the building in preparation for spring occupancy. The cost of the furnishings was
approximately $25,000 and it was recommended that the Commission authorize some additional
funds for appliances. Upon a motion made by Commissioner Glidden and duly seconded by
Commissioner Jelleme, it was unanimously VOTED to execute the March 10, 2020 warrant
document for an amount not to exceed$28,000 to be provided to the county treasurer, on the
condition that MGC prepares and presents a proposal that provides details on how the facility would

what the payment schedule to the Land Bank would be.

March 10, 2020
Upon a motion made by Commissioner Glidden and duly seconded by Commissioner Jelleme, it
was unanimously VOTED to adopt the policy as written.
C. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT:
1. Easy Street Park—Construction Update: Mr. Tomaiolo said overall the project
was progressing well but there were anticipated change orders for the following: additional work
necessary to remove old steel which was blocking new steel from being driven on the west side;
additional work to remove timbers on the east end that were in the way of installing the new whales;
and cost overages for the landscaper to buy certain materials on-island and the need to replace some
bad fill with sand and new loam. Mr. Tomaiolo reported that the outflow from storm surges had
caused a large hole to form by the corner of the neighbor's property. He recommended replacing the
fence along the property line and driving the fence posts in eight to ten feet deep,then adding a
timber wall to fill the gap at the bottom and filling the area in front of the wall (parallel to the
boundary line)with stone rip rap. All this work fell outside the original scope of the project but was
deemed necessary by the project team.
2. Disposal of Surplus Property—Adoption of Revised Written Procedure: Ms. Bell
presented a revised procedure that specifically listed the disposal of watercraft through the take it
and leave it program at the landfill as recommended by the Department of Public Works Director
and implemented in January. Upon a motion made by Commissioner Glidden and duly seconded by
Commissioner Jelleme, it was unanimously VOTED to adopt the revised procedure as written.
3. Mt. Vernon Farrn/Sustainable Nantucket—Farmer Request: Ms. Freeman
presented a request from Dan Southey of Washashore Farm to add up to six caterpillar tents to his
plot to enable him to control moisture better and facilitate production year-round. Ms. Freeman said
Mr. Southey was a very dedicated farmer at the property. Further, if approved he would initially
only be adding two tunnels due to capital restraints. Upon a motion made Commissioner Jelleme
and duly seconded by Commissioner Glidden, it was unanimously VOTED to approve the request.
4. Mobile Vending Policy—Discussion: Ms. Bell reviewed the Town of Nantucket's
mobile vending guidelines and the Land Bank's prior policies. Discussion ensued regarding the
number of vendors, hours of operation and parking. Commissioner Jelleme said that if the
Commission was going to limit the number of vendors, the selected ones should be required to be
present at the property on a regular basis. Commissioner Glidden additionally requested that all
prospective vendors come to the meeting to answer questions. Upon a motion made by
Commissioner Glidden and duly seconded by Commissioner Jelleme, it was unanimously VOTED
to approve the 2020 policy limiting the vendors to three for a two hour duration per day,payment of
a$250 fee and requiring an in-person presentation and a commitment to vend on the property
regularly.
5. Francis Street Park—Nantucket Lightship Basket Art Sale Request: Ms. Bell
presented a request from the Nantucket Lightship Basket Museum to hold their annual art sale at the
Francis Street Park on August 22, 2020 from 9:00 a.m. to 12 p.m. Upon a motion made by

Land Bank's request the Finance Committee voted to take no action on Articles 93 and 95. Further,
