D. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT:
1.Cisco Beach—Mobile Food Vendor Proposal: Ms. Bell presented a proposal from
Lemon Press to operate an ice cream cart for the upcoming season at Cisco Beach. Ms. Bell
recommended that the Commission approve the proposal as only two mobile food unit had been
approved at Cisco this year with one of them (Nantucket Poke)recently deciding to forego the
opportunity. The Nantucket Conservation Foundation who had restricted commercial use of the
property had voted to allow up to three food vendors and one surfing vendor. Upon a motion made
by Commissioner Stackpole and duly seconded by Commissioner Donato, it was unanimously
VOTED to approve the Lemon Press request to provide an additional food service for beachgoers at
Cisco.
2. Larrabee Farm/101 Hummock Pond Rd - Greenhouses Request: Ms. Freeman
reviewed a request from the Larrabees to add five (5) additional greenhouses and three(3)
additional caterpillar hoops. Further, she indicated she had been working with an agricultural
consulting group, American Farmland Trust,to define a scope of services aimed at assisting the
Land Bank in the management and growth of its agricultural holdings. She requested feedback from
the Commission to assist her with developing a conceptual plan to display the agricultural ground
cover percentage options to determine future boundaries for guidelines for the agricultural policies.
Discussion followed and options were suggested. The Commission recommended reviewing the
lease for specifications and favored the idea of Ms. Freeman creating a plan for them to visualize
agricultural ground cover.
3. Cisco Beach Parking — Road Relocation: Ms. Freeman informed the Commission
that due to erosion the parking lot will need to be relocated and she had begun the permitting process
for a winter 2022 project. She reviewed a GIS map of the Cisco beach property and pointed out that

erosion is inevitable. She reviewed the conceptual plan and explained plans to relocate the front

section to the back of the lot. The Commission favored the plan and Ms. Freeman thanked them for
their feedback.
4. Miacomet Bridge—Discussion: Ms. Freeman informed the Commission that Paul
Santos had surveyed the topography, suggested potential bridge designs and cited an appropriate
location for the bridge over Miacomet Pond. The conceptual design entailed a pedestrian bridge
suitable for fishing, hiking and walking dogs thereby connecting trails from Land Bank properties
on both sides of Miacomet pond and would allow kayaks to pass through underneath as well. The
Commission favored the idea of moving forward with plans and permitting of the bridge.
5. Leash Dogs Signs at Beach Accesses -Discussion: Ms. Bell reported that in a
recent beach management meeting the Town Manager explained that due to a recent incident
involving an unleashed dog on the beach,the Town was planning on posting signage at all beach
access points about the leash law to raise awareness and inform visitors that dogs are required to be
leashed. Discussion followed and due to an abundance of signage posted all around the island,the
Commission did not favor the idea of posting additional signage on beach access points at Land
Bank properties. Upon a motion made by Commissioner Jelleme and duly seconded by
Commissioner Stackpole,the commission unanimously VOTED to deny the request to post leash
law signage at all Land Bank beach access points.
