1. Nantucket Pond Coalition — Update on Proposed Work (Long, Miacomet &
Hummock Ponds): Mr. Williams reported on the successful results of various pilot programs to
eradicate aquatic invasive plants from in all three aforementioned ponds. He displayed photographs
and a video that showed the increased algae growth and aquatic plants over a period of 40 years.
Ms. Freeman reviewed and supported the proposal which called for removal of small patches of
Phragmites prior to becoming more established. Mr. Williams presented a list of ongoing and future
projects with the estimated costs. Upon a motion made by Commissioner Gardner and duly
seconded by Commissioner Paterson, it was unanimously VOTED to pledge $120,000 over a 3 -year
period as a demonstration of the Land Bank's willingness to partner with the Nantucket Pond
Coalition (NPC) in their efforts to clean up Nantucket's ponds, subject to the Commission's future
approval of specific projects brought forth by the NPC. Chairman Reinhard thanked Mr. and Mrs.
Williams for their hard work at the NPC and their dedication to land stewardship.
Mr. and Mrs. Williams and Ms. Freeman departed the meeting at 4:39 pm
2. Property Foreman - Summer Review: Mr. Pollock recapped the summer season
which went smoothly despite increased traffic on all properties, especially the South Shore beaches.
There was a five person crew that handled all operations and maintained the trail systems, pocket
parks and beaches seven days a week. Furthermore, he stated that placing all the port-a- potties in
one location at 40th Pole worked well; however, Commissioner Stackpole reported hearing

complaints from beachgoers that preferred them to be spread out rather than consolidated in one
location. The equipment used for maintenance of all properties was working well, although Mr.
Pollock noted that the UTV may need replacement next year. Mr. Paterson commented that all
properties looked good as a result of Mr. Pollock's team which has been very responsive to all
property needs. Mr. Pollock stated that Cisco Beach was heavily used this summer and the shore
has continued to erode at a dramatic rate and it is very likely that the parking lot will need to be
altered for next summer season as the front row of parking will deteriorate further over the winter.
3. Lily Pond Use Request - Haunted Hike 3: Ms. Bell presented a request from Laura
Byrnes, Chorus and Theatre Teacher at Cyrus Peirce Middle School, to utilize the Lily Pond park
for the third consecutive Haunted Hike production on Thursday, October 27, 2016, with a dress
rehearsal tentatively scheduled for the night before. The event involves bringing visitors on a tour of
middle school students stationed throughout the park doing dramatic readings of spooky - themed
poetry and /or stories in celebration of Halloween. Upon a motion made by Commissioner Stackpole
and duly seconded by Commissioner Paterson, it was unanimously VOTED to approve the request
for this event.
4. Properties Use Request — NHS Cross Country Team: Ms. Bell presented a request
from Gary Allen, the new high school cross country team coach asking permission to use various
Land Bank properties, for approximately 20 students, three times a week for running practices
throughout the season which was approved by Mr. Savetsky. Further, he requested three meets be
held on Land Bank properties with details to be worked out to the satisfaction of the Land Bank
staff. Upon a motion made by Commissioner Glidden and duly seconded by Commissioner
Paterson, it was unanimously VOTED to approve the request.

2. Land Bank Advertisement: Ms. Bell presented the third in a series of
