In return, the Town of Barnstable should expect more affordable units from the process than the results from the existing 40B pro- cess. It is very easy to talk about meeting the needs of our communities and resi- dents; it is now time for us to take a positive position on the AHOD and demon- strate that commitment is a real way. Surrounding communities on the Cape have initiated similar ac- tion with positive results. I hope this Council will carry this forward as it is simply another tool for us to use to meet your needs. I'm getting ready for a family visit from our Southern children with all the rest to join us over the weekend, so this is a little short. Hope you are all well and I look forward to hearingfrom you with your ideas and comments. Mills'hills... CONTINUED FROM PAGE B:1 for propagation of hard shell clams, or quahogs. The upwellers, known by the acronym FLUPSY (FLoating UPweller SYs- tem) is a floating, controlled nursery system that forces nutrient-rich water to the infant shellfish. Welling, as it is called, allows the clams to grow more quickly, enjoy a higher survival rate, and conditions the seed to be in a constant state of wanting to eat. Wa- ter is continuously fed into and through the weller by a small electric pump, Shufelt said. "When we update the docks some day we could probably add more upwellers, Youknow Kris (Clark, the town's hard shell clam propa- gation technician).She's a firebrand. I tellher we'll go along with that as long as she doesn't get into the way of marina clients." The upwellers must be cleaned sporadically and take some maintenance. He said comments from marina users have been good. "They seem to be pleased with the service," he said, and complemented the two dockmasters, Jon Snyder and Ann Pacino, for keeping the marina clean and their friendly interac- , tion with slip owners. The town did not pur- chase the mooring field from the previous owner but allowed individualmooring holders to buy them. The Mills may not have much salt waterfront, but a comment by Shufelt under- scores the importance of Prince Cove Marina to boat owners: "This is a great hur- ricane hole," he said. "Hills and trees - 360 degrees." JL||KkV " 1C Barnstable Patriot is pleased to honor ¦ ^.
