CONTINUED FROM PAGE A:8 What's more, the town will control assessment of impact fees and will ensure that the funds received are applied in or near the proj- ect area. Weil said there are four exceptions under which the Commission would be back in the picture: any proj ect large enough to trigger state environmentalreview (more than 100 housing units, for example), aproposal to pro- vide transportation to and from Barnstable County,ac- tion on a structure listed on the NationalRegisterunless it's already in the Hyannis Main Street Waterfront Historic District, and Cape Cod Hospital projects. Town Council President Hank Farnham, a former bank executive who served as BEDC's chairman, had a question about timing. "We're kind of on the cusp of going into a slowdown." he said of the economy in asking what would happen if the town were unable to develop to the agreed threshold in the next five years. Weilsaid she believed the Commission would ex- tend the time frame. Early Files CONTINUED FROM PAGE A:6 ment opposing the practice.

Commission staff believe these offset credits are ap- propriate, as they are the types of actions that would be sought of towns to sup- port GIZ applications. As the GIZ concept is new, it is felt that Barnstable should not be penalized for actions takenpriorto the implemen- tation of the regulation. Commission Executive Director Margo Fenn told the subcommitteethat it was "very much appropriate" to credit the town'spast efforts because they were all aimed at the same goal. While the town has ample credit on the residential side to meet offsets in the first five years, past actions only account for enough offset credits on the commercial side to support the first two years of the GIZ. Within its Feb. 24 recom- mendation , staff suggests a number of measures to limit development outside of the GIZ. These include down-zoning in other com- mercial corridors and/or Independence Park, allow- ing transfer of development rights outside of the GIZ and givingpriority for sewer, wastewaterandbuildingper- mits to those located within the GIZ. "Staff recommends that these measures ... be pro- vided prior to the issuance of any commercial develop- ment permits for develop- ment inyears 2-5,"the report reads. Other options discussed at the meeting were the adop- tion of impact fees outside the GIZ to guide develop- ment inside. "So if you develop outside the GIZ,you essentiallyhave to pay your own way," staff economic development offi- cer Leslie Richardson said. The commission subcom- mittee will next meet on March 23 to review the fi- nal recommendations and conditions for the GIZ ap- plication. Barnstable falls to Wellesley MIAA semifinal loss marks end of season By Kathleen Manwaring kmanwaring@barnstablepatriot.com DAVID STILL II PHOTO PERSONAL BEST - Interim Superintendent Thomas McDonald presents BHS Winter Track star Michael Burke with an award celebrating his individual school record, one of two honors Burke received at Winter Awards Night for Winter Athletics at BHS. During the Winter Track season, Burke broke the school record inthe hurdle with a time of 8.02 automatic. During Wednesday evening'sceremony,manyother honorswere presented. A full story and a complete list of awards and recipients will appear in next Friday's Patriot. The BHS girls hockey sea- son came to abittersweet end March 9when the Raiders fell to second-seed Wellesleydur- ing the Division 2 semifinals in Walpole. After a tremendous 16-6-1 run, the sixth-seed Raiders proved to be no match for the Wellesley team in spite of great defense. Natalie Cohen in goal managed to keep the game scoreless during the first period through anumber of impressive stops. "Natalie made some excellent saves," said Kim Sullivan,the team's head coach. While offensive players Mi- chelle Manning,Katie Kirwan and Stephanie Scarpato of- fered numerous challenges, theywereunsuccessfulagainst the strong Wellesley defense particularly from goalie Dani- elle Murmes. Nonetheless , Sullivan acknowledged her team's efforts. "It was a great game," she said. Scoring Barnstable's only goal was Scarpato, who came in just under the wire with a mere 3.3 seconds left in the game, taking the puck the length of the ice and catching Murmes off guard. Wellesley coach George Campbellnoted that Scarpato, Manning and Kirwan are players to be watched next season. Sullivan is pleased at the level of play her team exhib- ited throughout the season. "We're disappointed that we lost,"she said, "but we're cer- tainly not disappointed in our season or our team." Broadway comes to Hyannis Skaters to demonstrate talent in Broadway on Ice By Kathleen Manwaring kmanwaring@barnstablepatriot.com Tomorrow night, the Ken- nedy Memorial skating rink will come alive with an eve- ning of Broadway on Ice. Local skaters of all ages will perform self-choreo- graphed routines to popu- lar Broadway tunes from well-known movies and musicals. "This is an annual event," said Patti Machado of the Barnstable Recreation Department. "The kids in our figure skating clinics will demonstrate to family and friends all they have learned." With nearly 300 children from first grade through high school participating, the show promises to be exciting. "There are skill levels of all kinds," said Machado. "From the kids learning to fall down and stand back up to the girls doing waltz jumps and lutzes." Through the skating clin- ics students are taught in the same styles as Olympic figure skaters, building a series of skills over time. In this show skaters will highlight those skills as they skate to the well-known mu- sic of shows such as Annie, Seussical, A Chorus Line, Hairspray, and Grease. While much of the show features group skating, there will be seven older solo- ists performing. "The girls have to earn their solos," said Machado. "They have to make sure they show up on time to help teach the younger kids, as well as pass all the previous programs." Working with the younger skaters is a boost for advanc- ing skaters as it gives them a chance to demonstrate their own successes. Together the children form quite a bond. "The younger kids really lift up the older kids," said Machado. "This is their own special community." Kara McDonald, a senior at BHS, will offer her fare- well skate as she performs for the final time before heading off to college in the fall. "She is the final soloist in the show," said Machado. "She is an unbelievable skater." A special aspect of the show is that the students do much of the work them- selves, beyond learning their routines. "The kids do all the decorating and promotion," Machado said. "They choreo- graph the routines, choose the theme and the music. It's their show." This year's show will be especially poignant as it is dedicated to a fellow skater who is battling cancer. Caroline Fries was diagnosed several months ago and has been doing her best to fight her illness, which has prevented her from taking part in many of her favorite activities, including figure skating. "The kids thought it was really important to dedicate this show to her," Machado said. The show begins at 6:30 tomorrow evening and is expected to draw a sizeable crowd. A $1 donation is re- quested but not required to help defray the costs of sets and props. For more information,call 508-790-6345.
