Members of the CPC described broad support for the Juro (Warner's Pond) phase‑2 design during Nov. 19 deliberations, citing letters of support and a unanimous recommendation from the Warner's Pond Task Force that the project provide public water access.

Bill Kameza, cochair of the Warner's Pond Task Force, said the project drew near‑unanimous support across work groups: "Because regardless of what work group you were in, whether you're for dam removal or for we all agreed that there should be access." The committee noted improved oversight and clarified that the proposed dock location sits at the same deep‑hole area in front of the property regardless of whether future actions change the pond profile.

Committee members also discussed maintenance and programming responsibilities; Paul Boehm and others confirmed that public‑works budgeting and recreation revolving funds have been coordinated so maintenance uncertainties that complicated the first phase have been addressed. Members characterized the Juro phase‑2 design as a "slam dunk" given the level of public support and clearer management plans.

Next steps: The CPC recorded informal consensus support for funding the design phase and advised staff to reflect the committee's support in the recommended package to the Select Board and at Town Meeting.
