January 9th, 1980 with all members being present.
'Mr. Yacus ~lade a motion to approve the minutes seconded by Mr. Eldridge,

~Ilr. Ri cha\~d Gl i dden, Atty. attended the meeting and showed the committee a
plot plan of Mr. Egan~ property on Cato Lane. He stated that he wants to
leave the way off the Land Court Plan. He also wants to relocate the existing
way to straighten out his lot lines and that he will give the Town an easement
across his property as well. Mr. Egan will turn over to the Town if the Town
wishes in the future that strip of land being \^elocated for $1.00 and pay for
the survey. (to be recorded on the deed) Mr. Eldridge indicated his objection
to the idea. This is the way we loose Town roads.
The committee will consider the matter.
Regarding Chapter 693, the committee voted to change from $1500 per road repair
costs to 5~ per foot on 6N-a.
t1r. Yacus made a motion to submit the proposals of 6N-a through !Lto the
Selectmen/County Commissioners for their consideration, seconded by ~1r. Eldridge
voted unanimously. If the Selectmen approve the proposal, request them to
submit an article in the Town Warrant.
The Committee received a letter from t~rs. ~1illy Taylor regarding the sand
across Massachusetts Ave. in Madaket. The committee also received a letter
from the County Commissioners regarding t,1ass. Ave. and the Sand problem.
The Committee recommends removal of the sand to keep the road accessible for
emergency vehicles and general public safety~ with Conservation Commission
approval as to what should be done with the sand upon the removal.
The committee discussed the budget for 1980-81 and voted to request $1,000.
Mr. Barrett said that Mr. Thurber will take care of it.
Mr. Eldridge asked if anyone of the members heard from the Boat Meadow Creek
Corp. regarding the other access to Polpis Harbor. Mr. Barrett reported to the
committee that Mr. Buckingham called him and invited him to attend a meeting
with himself, Mr. Young and Mr. Lentowski at the office of the Conservation
Foundation. This meeting will not be open to the public or the other members
of this committee.
Mrs. Marble said she would like to make a motion to investigate the opening
of the Polpis Harbor Access Road to its full width before the Town Warrant
closed and perhaps submit an Article in the Warrant for just that. After much
discussion and the present situation regarding the possible other access and
the lack of success in doing anything with the present access, there was no
second.
Mr. Eldridge made a motion to
Mr. Yacus, voted unanimously.
