09:32:55 From Jennifer Carlino, Easton she/her to Everyone:
	If there can be a cheat sheet describing each one's pros/cons/eligible for IRS, in table form, that would be really helpful for municipalities, particularly if we can use with cluster development requirements. thanks!
09:33:39 From Carol Entin to Everyone:
	Ditto what Jennifer said.  A table would be a super helpful resource.
09:33:57 From Buzz Constable to Everyone:
	Do  you have any opinion of any counsel that a board resolution ensures perpetuity?  Notice of grant (federal or state)? The current form of tribal agreement ? How about zoning special permits for OSRD.

09:39:38 From Kathy Sferra to Everyone:
	need a quick summary of the question by mark...

09:45:18 From Carol Entin to Everyone:
	Where can we read more about Charitable Trusts as described by Mark?
09:46:28 From Stephen O'Grady, Orleans Conservation Trust to Everyone:
	Here's the link on the MLTC site: https://massland.org/resources/charitable-trusts-and-their-application
09:46:55 From Carol Entin to Everyone:
	Thanks!
09:52:44 From Stephen Small to Everyone:
	Mark Robinson - can you clarify - at this point are you talking about use of a charitable trust in a fee ownership case, in lieu of a 31-33 fully signed CR?  or is it a question of going through the 31-33 process AND using language in the CR to create a charitable trust in addition to the statutory protection, or something else?

09:57:21 From Stephen O'Grady, Orleans Conservation Trust to Everyone:
	To Steve Small: The Orleans experience working with Mark and the Compact has been either CR or charitable trust establishing the protective overlay. I don't think we've ever layered on both.
09:59:01 From Barbara Chrenko, MLTC to Everyone:
	If the presenters agree, all Retreat presentations will be posted to the MLTC website next week.

	thanks for that!  Lots of potential but lots of questions that have never been asked, or answered, before.  I"m all in favor of more tools, but "enforceability" in MA is of course critical.

10:05:08 From Stephen Small to Barbara Chrenko, MLTC(direct message):
	Replying to "Maybe a discussion f..."
	
	I think they are two separate issues (because they are) - we need to know more about charitable trusts before we talk about the intersection of that with 97.  too many hypotheticals right now.  Further discussion could answer/eliminate/etc. some of those hypos


10:16:51 From Buzz Constable to Everyone:
	Notice must be filed before thirty years, I believe, not “after”…
10:29:44 From Kathy Sferra to Everyone:
	If land is acquired for Conservation purposes with CPA a simpler restriction should be adequate.  It's no different from any other conservation land...
10:30:38 From Kathy Sferra to Everyone:
	… if needed under Chapter 40, Section 8C!
10:30:39 From Laura Mattei to Everyone:
	I agree with Kathy's opinion.  To avoid additional "bureaucracy."

10:32:50 From Buzz Constable to Everyone:
	But Article. 97 imposes a hurdle, not a barrier, to conversion.  That’s why 3rd party enforcement is needed if we care about Perpetuity….
10:33:45 From Kathy Sferra to Everyone:
	Buzz, I agree that we should not rely on just Article 97, but a full blown CR is overkill.  Is there a middle option?
10:37:53 From Buzz Constable to Everyone:
	How about a statutory confirmation that notice of grants, accepted by owner, is perpetual? Still leaves the 3rd party enforcement problem…..
10:46:22 From Megan Gordon to Everyone:
	I'd love to see better language for adaptability with climate change. ex. floating building envelopes (estabilshed area and then a back up area) in the event of sea level rise
10:52:20 From Megan Gordon to Everyone:
	Love the shirt, Dave

10:57:32 From Barbara Chrenko, MLTC to Everyone:
	Dave has a PPT which we can share next week.
10:57:40 From Jennifer Carlino, Easton she/her to Everyone:
	how would municipalities be notified of private deed restrictions or private APRs so that they are included in OSRP's matrix and on MassMapper? if there isn't a mechanism now, can we think about adding one?
10:58:09 From Barbara Chrenko, MLTC to Everyone:
	Rose Arruda.
10:59:22 From Megan Gordon to Everyone:
	Agree with Vanessa. The Protected Land Layer update needs to be prioritized

11:13:53 From Megan Gordon to Everyone:
	Having language options in the template is more helpful to drafters than having them hidden in a library. Especially since we don't know what the state will approve or not in this moment.

	Sheri Widdis, CR reviewer

	Or maybe we can link to that specific language library within the template


11:32:59 From Carol Entin to Everyone:

	Hi Janet, The Cranberry Bog Acquisition for Restoration Program is an EEA Grant Program. I believe it has been offered annually the past couple of years.
