PlanningBoard | 2011-07-25 | 5 | President Ezzy-Ashcraft asked how local control will be maintained and she asked him to address the perceived concern that BCDC is expanding its jurisdiction. Mr. Travis explained that BCDC is not expanding its jurisdiction beyond the 100' shoreline boundary already established. Explicit policy language states the Plan's policies would not be applied to areas beyond the 100' jurisdiction area from the shoreline. Furthermore, the different policies are advisory, not intended to be used in a regulatory context. The main policy thrust is to ensure public access along the shoreline. President Ezzy-Ashcraft asked the Board was interested in developing a resolution or recommendation that would support the proposed Plan amendments. The Board discussed this and agreed to vote on a motion to support the amendments. Board member Burton commended City staff for proactively assessing the future sea level rises. He stated that the Planning Board should utilize the Stormdrain Master Plan to assess the future projects for their impacts from sea level rise. Board member Zuppan commended BCDC in working collaboratively with the community to develop support for the Plan. Vice-Chair Autorino supports the fact that BCDC has made a strong argument for the economic impacts of the Plan.
