“Ms. Anderson moved that they accept the proposal from John W. Carey for the purchase of 5 Bells Neck Road, West Harwich in the amount of $175,000 and execute a purchase and sales agreement. Seconded by Mr. Ballantine. Mr. Ballantine said that he is very pleasantly surprised and that they have been worried about this for years, and they finally got one that seems to give them some money, and guaranteed the historical preservation of the building and housing. Ms. Kavanagh said she is over the moon. Ms. Anderson agreed, and said that it hits all of the buttons. Mr. Howell said that he is pleased that he is willing to keep the historic envelope of the building, with the historic preservation restriction on it. However, he said that there is nothing in a purchase and sale that survives the purchase and sale, and asked how they will administer the actual imposition of that onto the title? Mr. Powers said that he would need direction from the Board, as to whether they want that to be a deed restriction, and they can move forward in such a manner. Mr. MacAskill said that for him it was a preference for the historical preservation and he does not want to tie anyone's hands behind their back. He said that it was a preference of the board, not a requirement and they should not be tied to it. Ms. Anderson said that he spoke of being third generation from Harwich and already has two other multi-family homes. She said she does not have any reason to distrust him. Mr. Howell said that is one of the dilemmas they had in the Planning Board, someone would be third of fourth generation, but then they pass away and all of a sudden someone from Off-Cape comes in. He said unless it is in writing there is no enforceability, whatsoever, in the future. Ms. Kavanagh asked if they could just ask him if he is willing to do that, to protect it? Mr. Powers said that they could do that and would in fact be the next step in finalizing arrangements, after their vote. Roll Call Vote: Mr. Ballantine - Aye, Ms. Kavanagh - Aye, Ms. Anderson - Aye, Mr. Howell - No, Mr. MacAskill - Aye. Motion carried at a vote of 4-1-0, with Mr. Howell against.” (Motion: Anderson, second: Ballantine)
