Nantucket Land Bank Commission
Regular Meeting of February 10, 2015
Land Bank Meeting Room, 22 Broad Street
Nantucket, Massachusetts
CALL TO ORDER: 4:00 p.m.
r
PRESENT: Paterson, Gardner, Reinhard, Stackpole. ABSENT: Bartlett.
STAFF PRESENT: Eric Savetsky, Executive Director; Jesse Bell, Assistant Director; Swan
Campese, Administrator/Finance Manager.
Weweeder Railroad Corridor abutters, Lou Borrelli, Michele Perry, Sean Perry, Andy Harris, Bo
Wilson, Orla Murphy, James Cabral, Mark Delay; Roads and Right of Way Committee Member,
Lee Saperstein; Inquirer & Mirror reporter, Lindsay Pykosz were also present at call to order.
A. CITIZEN BUSINESS /ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. Weweeder Railroad Corridor — Abutters concerns: Ms. Perry, Mr. Cabral, Mr. Wilson,
Mr. Borrelli and Mr. Delay spoke against the proposed trail system from Surfside Road to the beach
as they felt it impacted their properties in a negative way by bringing people, dogs and crime into
the neighborhood. Additionally, some abutters stated that they didn't want a trail going behind their
homes as it would also impact their privacy. Ms. Perry said people walking on a trail would upset
her horses and endanger the children she teaches riding to on her property. Mr. Cabral was further
concerned with the upkeep of the property. Commissioners Paterson and Gardner stated that
property staff works hard to ensure the maintenance and upkeep all Land Bank properties and if
anyone notices a problem on a property they should call the Land Bank and it will be dealt with as
soon as possible. Further, Chairman Reinhard indicated that the proposed trail would only be 6 feet
wide on a property that is 40 feet wide at its narrowest point, that the trail would be a great addition
for walkers to the beach. Mr. Savetsky said there are no plans for a parking area, so it would not
become a destination. After much discussion, the Commissioners thanked everyone for their
comments and they would be taken under advisement.
Mr. Borrelli, Ms. Perry, Mr. Perry, Mr. Harris, Mr. Wilson, Ms. Murphy, Mr. Cabral, Mr. Delay,
Mr. Saperstein and Ms. Pykosz departed the meeting at 4:38 p.m.
B. EXECUTIVE SESSION: Upon a motion made and duly seconded, it was unanimously VOTED
to go into executive session in order to discuss the purchase, exchange, lease or value of real
property, contract negotiations and review and approve executive session minutes. Each member
was polled individually. All members voted yes. The Chairman declared that discussion of these
matters in open session may be detrimental to the Land Bank's negotiating position and that the
Commission would reconvene in regular session following executive session.

1.2015 Golf Management Fees — Clarification and Approval: Mr. Savetsky asked for a vote
in open session of the 2015 annual Miacomet Golf Course and Sconset Golf Course management
fees which had not yet been established. Upon a motion made and duly seconded, it was
unanimously VOTED to increase Nantucket Golf Management's current fee by an additional 4.5%
for the coming year, bringing the total annual amount to $166,131.50, with the SGC management
fee for the coming year remaining the same ($15,000).
Superintendent of Miacomet Golf, Sean Oberly entered the meeting at 5:15 p. m.
D. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Upon a motion made and duly seconded, it was unanimously
VOTED to accept, approve and release the regular session minutes of January 29, 2015, as written.
E. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT:
1. Miacomet and Sconset Golf — Superintendent's Update: Mr. Oberly presented data on the
environmental impact quotient (EIQ) which is a system created by Cornell University that rates the
environmental and health impacts of commonly used pesticides. Mr. Oberly stated that both
Miacomet and Sconset Golf have extremely low EIGs and he feels that by continuing to adjust
some of the management practices the numbers could go even lower. The Commission thanked Mr.
Oberly for his hard work on the course.
Mr. Oberly departed the meeting at 5:31 p. m.

amendment for the Maria Mitchell Aquarium at 28 Washington to extend their lease until

2. 158 Orange Street Building Demolition — Execution of Contract: Upon a motion made
and duly seconded, it was unanimously VOTED to execute the demolition contract with P.M. Reis
Trucking who was the low bidder for the project.
3. 158 Orange Street — Dock Replacement Discussion: Mr. Savetsky told the Commission
that after discussions with members of the Conservation Commission he thinks it would be better to
file a permit to move and rebuild the dock further onto Land Bank property, rather than applying for
an elevated walkway.
4. Sconset Golf Course — Use Request: Ms. Bell presented a request from Kathi Loughlin,
President of On the Isle Community Theater to stage a historic reenactment photograph at the
clubhouse of the original Sconset Actor's Colony photographs (circa 1910) that Ms. Bell presented
at the Sconset History Night event. The consensus of the Commission was it would be fine,
depending on the timing and details.
5. Sconset Golf Clubhouse — Design Concept Discussion: Ms. Bell presented a design of the
bar back area that would have exposed lath covered by tempered glass. Ms. Bell felt it was in
keeping with the rustic funky feeling of the place. Commissioner Stackpole and Mr. Savetsky asked
if the glass was necessary. After some discussion, the consensus of the Commission was to see a
more detailed drawing, pictures of the lath and feasibility of executing the design detail without
