Subject: Old Kings Highway
Good morning John,
Twice in one week you hear from me. We met last night with two items on the agenda. After
completing our business we had a discussion about Orleans being in the District. This was
prompted by our honesty admitting that Paul did not want to stay on the committee and that I am
leaving in May of June and that it is so difficult to add new members.
By a vote of 3-0-0 the Orleans OKHRHD committee voted in favor of moving to begin the
process forward to remove us from the District. As Vice Chairman I have drafted an Article for
the ATM to begin discussions. I offered as none of the other members are familiar with the
process.
I am available to assist if needed to bring this to town meeting. 508-255-4321 is my cell phone
number and I am in Orleans most weekdays and can stop at town hall.
Bill Quinn Jr.
Article for ATM
Removal of Orleans from Old Kings Highway Regional
Historic District.
Article: Propose to authorize the Board of Selectmen to direct Town Council to
begin the process to remove the Town of Orleans from the requirements and
governance of the Old Kings Highway Regional Historic District. In addition, if
passed, the Board of Selectmen are authorized to place a ballot question on the
Town’s annual election to petition the legislature of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts for this purpose.
Summary: For the past few years the local committee has had problems finding
members willing to serve and operates short staffed. At its January meeting the
committee voted to begin the process for removing Orleans from the District.
The committee feels that with the high percentage of build out in our area that
applications have reduced and this impact will be minimal. If there is opposition
to our removal for concerns of historical values not being represented, there is
time in the process to assign the requirements of the committee to another
board within the town by bylaw.

Kent’s Point Questions
In advance of the public hearing on the Kent’s Point Conservation Area Management Plan
(1995) you have asked for my insight on five questions. The questions and my responses are as
follows:
Question No. 1: It appears no State funds (re-imbursement) were ever taken for the
acquisition. Can the Commission restrict access to residents only? Is this consistent with
any deed language or other restrictions?
Response:
If the property had been acquired with State funds under the Self-Help Program, the provisions
of 301 CMR 5.08 would prohibit discrimination on the basis of residence. Specifically, 301
CMR 5.08 provides, in pertinent part, that:
(1) Operation, Maintenance, and Reasonable Use Limitations. Property acquired or developed
with Program assistance shall be operated and maintained in accordance with standards and
guidelines of the Division. In accordance with the applicable program contract, participants may
impose reasonable limits on the type and extent of use of areas and facilities acquired or
developed with Program assistance as necessary for maintenance or preservation.
(2) Nondiscrimination. Property acquired or developed with Program assistance will be open to
entry and use by all persons who are otherwise eligible regardless of race, color, national origin,
sex, sexual preference, age or disability.
(3) Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Residence.
(a) Discrimination on the basis of residence, including preferential reservation, membership or
annual permit systems, or user fees is prohibited on the Project site unless this provision is
waived by the Secretary.
(b) The Secretary will approve or deny all proposed fee or access limiting systems. Waivers will
not be granted which are inconsistent with the Federal Land and Water Conservation Fund Act,
P.L. 88-578, Section 6(f)(8), 16 USC s.4601-4 . et seq.
1
According to the Kent’s Point Management Plan no state or federal funds were used for the
acquisition of the property (Plan, page 2). Thus, there does not appear to be an express State
prohibition on restricting access to town residents.
The deed from Charlotte Kent conveyed the property to the Town of Orleans, acting through its
conservation commission, under G.L. c. 40, §8C, IN TRUST … “upon the express public trust
by the grantee for open-space-conservation purposes (including the use of the land for a Town
shellfish laboratory and a lease back to the grantor). When a grant of a parcel of land is
impressed with a charitable trust, the grantor expresses an intent in plain words to create a trust
in perpetuity in the subject parcel. The municipal acceptance of the grant creates a contract that
neither the heirs of the grantor, municipality, nor legislature may impair. Opinion of the Justices,
369 Mass. 979 (1975). Clearly, per the deed the property is subject to an express public trust and
can only be used for open, space and conservation purposes. However, the deed does not,
however, specifically require that the property be open to use by both residents and nonresidents.
In Bedell v. Town of Otis (Mass Land Ct. 2005), the Land Court held that a Town could open a
public beach area (acquired by the Town together with other lots through tax takings) to the
public provided measures were taken to mitigate the effects of a public beach on the plaintiffs'
(other owners in the subdivision) easement rights, including among other things, that the beach
be limited to Town residents and their guests and that parking be restricted to Town residents,
whose vehicles must be denoted by a Town sticker. The restrictions were deemed reasonably
necessary to protect the plaintiffs’ express easement rights to the roads and the beach. In Bedell,
the Town acquired title to the property pursuant to tax takings and not pursuant to a deed
providing that the property be used in perpetuity for conservation and open space. However, the
case indicates that access restrictions based on residency are not prohibited with respect to
Town-owned property. As noted in Bedell, the restrictions were deemed reasonable to protect
the easement rights of the other lot owners.
Under M.G.L. c. 40, §8C, a conservation commission may be established for the promotion and
development of the natural resources and for the protection of watershed resources of the town.
The conservation commission may develop a conservation and passive outdoor recreation plan
which shall be, as far as possible, consistent with the town master plan and with any regional
plans. The commission shall manage and control conservation land and may adopt rules and
regulations governing the use of land and waters under its control, and prescribe penalties for any
violations. The general rules of the Conservation Commission (applicable to use of lands under
management of the Conservation Commission) and attached as Appendix F to the Management
Plan provides under Number 1 that “[c]onservation lands shall be open for enjoyment by the
general public…” – there is no discrimination on the basis of residency. The Kent’s Point
Management Plan states (p.1) that the plan is intended to develop and promote Kent’s Point for
quiet public enjoyment. Again there is no discrimination on the basis of residency. It is not clear
if the authority of the Commission under G.L. c. 40, §8C to manage and control property under
its jurisdiction includes the right to discriminate against non-residents. The question to be
addressed is how such a residency requirements relates to management and control of
2
conservation land. To the extent such discrimination is allowed, it may be that such an action
must be undertaken by the Board of Selectmen or Town Meeting. 1
Another factor to consider might be whether the restriction is to apply to just parking or does it
also apply to foot traffic. For example, some towns provide for resident only parking at certain
beaches. It is my understanding that in Chilmark on Martha’s Vineyard, two town beaches are
restricted to residents only of the Town of Chilmark, or their guests or tenants and this restriction
also applies to foot traffic. 2
There is a possibility that a non-resident only rule could be challenged as unconstitutional under
the State and Federal Constitution. In Leydon v. Town of Greenwich, 257 Conn. 318 (2001), the
Connecticut Supreme Court affirmed a lower court decision that an ordinance restricting access
to non-residents to a municipally owned park was unenforceable. The ordinance allowed only
town residents access to beach-park areas. The Court affirmed the decision on the federal and
state constitutional principles of the First Amendment (the lower court had decided the case on
the basis of a common law public trust doctrine). The Court concluded that nonresident access
to the beach was protected by the right of freedom of expression given to all citizens. Under
freedom of expression protections provided by the First Amendment and the Connecticut State
Constitution, citizens are allowed to freely gather and conduct activities such as political debate
and recreation. A "traditional public forum" is a place where the government customarily allows
assembly and free debate of ideas, and includes areas such as streets and parks where the
government holds title to the land but allows these areas to be used by its citizens. The United
States Supreme Court has held that the government may only limit expression in these areas
based on time, place, and manner of the expression but not its content. The regulation must not
restrict specific types of expression and must be made so specific as to help further an important
governmental interest. In other words, the government must have some very important reason,
like public safety, in order to limit the use of these public areas. The Connecticut Court found
Greenwich Point to be a traditional public forum because it had the characteristics of a public
park, including, the presence of shelters, ponds, a marina, a parking lot, and picnic areas. The
Court found that the ordinance restricting access to only town residents violated the rights of
nonresidents to participate in expressive activities, and that the town failed to show why the
ordinance protected an important town interest. Here, the Kent’s Point Conservation Area does
not appear to be a “traditional public forum,” however, in discussing property security the
Management Plan refers to the area as “the development of a town park in the area,” so perhaps
there is a possibility that any resident only rule could be challenged under the State and Federal
Constitution
1
By way of example, management and control of conservation land, does not does not include, in the
absence of town meeting vote authorizing the transaction, the authority of a conservation commission to
lease premises under its charge, even if the lease restricts the use of premises to conservation purposes.
Statute authorizing formation of conservation commissions and defining their powers and duties neither
explicitly nor implicitly authorizes conservation commission, on its own, to lease land for conservation
purposes. Cranberry Growers Service, Inc. v. Town of Duxbury , 415 Mass. 354 (1993).
2
Caselaw indicates that resident parking restrictions should be upheld if they are rationally related to a
legitimate government objective. Commonwealth v. Petralia, 372 Mass. 452 (1977).
3
In summary, based on the above review, I would caution the Conservation Commission
that they may not have the power to restrict the property to residents-only and that such an action
per Footnote 1 may be within the province of the Town Meeting which authorized the purchase
of the property from Miss Kent for conservation and open space purposes.
Question No. 2: If the Conservation Area was restricted to Residents how would this
typically be enforced?
Response:
The enforcement of resident-only restriction would be problematic. Residents would probably
have to obtain a sticker for their cars. If the restriction applied to walkers, then walkers would
also need some type of sticker or access permits. Stickers/permits would have to be obtained at
certain designated town offices. Information as to the access restrictions would have to be
posted on the website, Town Hall, and posted on signs at Kent’s Point and the access thereto.
Since there is no attendant on duty at Kent’s Point, it would appear that enforcement would
probably be by the police, checking the cars/visitors for proper access stickers/permits.
With respect to enforcement, the Town Code, Article 1, section 1-1 provides that:
“Any bylaw of the Town of Orleans or rule or regulation of its boards, commissions
and committees, the violation of which is subject to a specific penalty, may, in the
discretion of the town official who is the appropriate enforcing person, be enforced
in the method provided in MGL C. 40, § 21D.”
Section 1-2, defines “enforcing person” to be:
“Any Selectman or any police officer of the Town of Orleans, with respect to any
offense, and such other officials as the Board of Selectmen may from time to time
designate, each with respect to violation of bylaws and rules and regulations within
his respective jurisdiction. If more than one (1) official has jurisdiction in a given
case, any such official may be an "enforcing person" with respect thereto.”
G.L. c. 40, §21D provides in pertinent part that “[a]ny city or town may by ordinance or by-law
not inconsistent with this section provide for non-criminal disposition of violations of any
ordinance or by-law or any rule or regulation of any municipal officer, board or department the
violation of which is subject to a specific penalty.”
Question No. 3: Is it the Commission’s responsibility to keep the public from using
Keziah’s Lane (private)? Do the owners of Keziahs Lane have the right to block the public
from the use of this way to access Kent’s Point.
4
Response:
Assuming that the general public does not have a right to use Keziah’s Lane, neither the Town or
the Commission is responsible from keeping the public from using the Keziah’s Lane. (This
would be the case with other private ways in Town.) However, per the Management Plan (p.11)
legal access to Kent’s Point is over private Frost Fish Lane and the Management Plan evidences
the intent of the Commission to work with the neighbors on any and all issues arising from the
Kent’s Point Conservation Area. Per the Management Plan, the Town provides maintenance for
Frost Fish Lane and signs have been posted indicating the access to Kent’s Point. The
Commission could certainly review the placement of the signs and perhaps the need for more
signs or additional information on the Town website with respect to the access route.
Assuming that Keziah’s Lane is private, it does not appear that the owners of Keziah’s Lane
could simply block off the road. They could most likely put up no-trespassing signs, however,
additional information would be necessary to determine if they could, for example, put up gates.
Clearly, they could not block the overlapping portions of Keziah’s Lane and Frost Fish Lane.
Private ways must be open to police and emergency vehicles. Keziah’s Lane provides access to
many homes, and a portion of Keziah’s Lane provides access to Kent’s Point, so public safety
reasons would certainly be a factor to consider with respect to any proposed blocking of the road.
Question No. 4: Is it the Commission’s responsibility to limit the number of car trips over
Frost Fist Lane or somehow manage the frequency of the use of the area?
Response:
I did not find any requirement for the Commission to limit the number of car trips over Frost
Fish Lane or to somehow manage the frequency of the use of the area [Frost Fish Lane]. The
Town has a right of way over Frost Fish Lane. The Town’s use of Frost Fish Lane is subject to
the terms of the Agreement for Judgment filed in the Superior Court Case No. 95-420. The
Agreement provides that:
1. The Defendants [Town] have a right of way over Frost Fish Lane for ingress and egress to the
Kent's Point Conservation Area.
2. The Defendants [Town] may allow the public to use Frost Fish Lane for all purposes for which
ways are commonly used in the Town of Orleans for access to Kent's Point Conservation Area for
conservation and passive recreation purposes in accordance with the Kent's Point Conservation
Area Management Plan dated March, 1995. The Defendants acknowledge that the current right of
access does not include access for passenger buses or passenger vans for hirer.
3. The Defendants [Town] may construct and maintain a twenty car public parking area together
with a two car handicapped parking area within the Kent's Point Conservation Area.
4. The Defendants [Town] may from time to time perform maintenance on and make improvements
to Frost Fish Lane for the purpose of maintaining said road in a safe and passable condition
provided, however, that the width of said road shall not be increased. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Defendants [Town] agree to maintain the existing improvements,
including, the existing speed bumps, speed limit signs and drainage facilities.
5. Neither the Plaintiffs nor the Defendants [Town] waive any rights that they may have with
respect to any changes in the use of Frost Fish Lane and the Kent's Point Conservation Area for
any additional purposes or to any greater extent other than as set forth herein.
5
Per the Agreement for Judgment the use of Frost Fish Lane will necessarily be limited by the
size of the parking area (as well as the limitation on passenger vans and buses).
Question No. 6: The area is currently posted, “Prohibited uses: Un-restrained Dogs”. Is
the current posting consistent with the allowed and prohibited uses described in the 1995
Plan? Does the Commission reserve the right to modify “allowed” and “prohibited” uses
if new management challenges arise?
Response:
The current posting would appear to be consistent with the 1995 Plan except for the fact that
dogs whether restrained or unrestrained are not allowed along the beach path (and perhaps the
beach area).
It would appear that the Commission has the right to modify allowed and prohibited uses if new
challenges arise. The Update and Review provisions of the Plan (p. 30) provide that the
“Commission should update the plan as necessary” and that “new or modified components to the
management plan can be adopted by the Commission at any time after a publicly-advertised
public meeting.” These provisions would allow modifications to the allowed and prohibited uses
if management challenges arise.
However, any changes to the Plan would have to consistent with the terms of the Agreement for
Judgment. The Agreement authorized the Town to “allow the public to use Frost Fish Lane for
all purposes for which ways are commonly used in the Town of Orleans for access to Kent's
Point Conservation Area for conservation and passive recreation purposes in accordance with the
Kent's Point Conservation Area Management Plan dated March, 1995.” For example if
restrained dogs are a problem then that use could be changed; or, if restrained dogs on the beach
path are not a problem, then changes could be made to that rule. However, the Town could not
allow the use of Frost Fish Lane for passenger buses or passenger vans for hire. Further, the
Town could not construct a larger parking area (per the Agreement for Judgment the Town is
limited to a “twenty car public parking area together with a two car handicapped parking area”).
Any changes would be subject to the Agreement for Judgment provision which provides that the
parties do not “waive any rights that they may have with respect to any changes in the use of
Frost Fish Lane and the Kent's Point Conservation Area for any additional purposes or to any
greater extent other than as set forth herein.” Kent’s Point is limited to conservation and passive
recreation purposes, so the area could not be used for any additional purposes. Likewise the use
of the area is limited by the size of the parking area so it does not appear that that the area would
be used to any greater extent. At the time of the Plan, the lease area was not part of the area open
to the public, however, the Plan contemplated such use, so the use of the former lease area for
conservation and passive recreation would not be the use of the area to a greater extent. In any
event it would be necessary to evaluate any proposed changes to make sure that any changes are
consistent with the Agreement for Judgment.

Dear Sirs,
Several questions came up at the January 7th Board of Selectmen meeting about a Gazebo the Orleans
Improvement Association (OIA) has been considering. The OIA is exploring the design and construction of a
Gazebo for the Village Green for the purposes of performance and recreational use on the Village Green. We
feel that it would be visually attractive and contribute to the economic health of Orleans. Performances at the
Gazebo would benefit all segments of the Orleans population.
We are in the very preliminary stages of developing our plan but we thought it might be an opportune moment
to give you an overview of the steps taken. It is our intent to gift the Gazebo to the Town.
Some of the initial steps we have taken include:
 Determining that there are no deed restrictions on the property to inhibit construction
 Determining that, if approved, irrigation and electrical modifications will be necessary and
completed at our expense
 Engaging Greg DeLory, a local designer, to create an architecturally appropriate design. (attached
find a copy of the preliminary design)
 Working with three vendors to determine material and cost. Long term maintenance is a
consideration
Several other community groups have been very supportive of the Gazebo concept. We have socialized the
concept with several local musicians who perform in the park; with the Chamber of Commerce which would
like to hold performances there; with Sandra Rhodes and Tavi Prugno of the Snow Library; with the Orleans
Community Partnership and Jeff Kobold of Prospect Mortgage which underwrites concerts.
We intend to keep the Board of Selectman informed of our progress and welcome any comments. We plan to
hold public presentations when our plan is more fully developed. The OIA wants to be sure that, as a
community, we see this as an asset to our Town.
Please let me know if we can provide any other detail that you may need.
Respectfully
Pat Perry/President OIA

SUMMARY
In accordance with Chapter 8-5-1 of the Charter, the Town Administrator shall prepare
a five year Capital Improvements Plan (CIP), which is designed to deal with the unmet
long-range needs, and to implement the goals and objectives of the official town plan.
The purpose of the CIP is to systematically plan, schedule, and finance capital projects
over a five-year period. The plan is to include, but not necessarily be limited to, major
infrastructure projects involving roads, storm drainage, water and sidewalks; public
building or facility renovation or replacement; and property acquisitions.
Wherever possible, to emphasize project planning, the CIP will incorporate the progression
of a project through the various phases, beginning first with a feasibility study, after
which final design plans and specifications are developed, followed by construction to
complete the project.
Proposed CIP project financing may include bonding, stabilization or reserve funds, or
other available funds. Proposed capital expenditures in excess of $10,000 for motor
vehicles, equipment, building/facility maintenance and repairs are included in the CIP
summarized by department and funding source.
As presented, the CIP includes all proposed projects for the period beginning July 1,
2016 (FY17) through June 30, 2021 (FY21).
Projects that are proposed for funding in FY16 make up the Capital Budget and will be
presented as separate article(s) in the town meeting warrant for funding consideration.
The Capital Budget projects were either “Adopted” in the CIP at the May 2014 town
meeting or are new and being “Budgeted” for the first time in FY16. In accordance with
the Orleans Home Rule Charter, any project that did not appear in the CIP in the prior
year or exceeds the estimated cost by ten percent (10%) must receive a favorable
three-fourths majority vote of the town meeting to be approved.
