    Context and Chronology

    In spring 2006, the Barnstable County Commissioners appointed the 21st Century Task Force on the Cape Cod Commission to evaluate the Commission's operations and make recommendations to improve the agency's effectiveness and relationships with towns. The Task Force met for about six months and conducted a thorough review of the Commission's planning, regulatory, and technical assistance functions. In December 2006, the Task Force delivered its final report with more than 35 recommendations for improvements.

    In early 2007, representatives of the Cape Cod Commission met with the Barnstable County Commissioners to share their thoughts on how the Commission can proceed with an implementation plan for Task Force recommendations. They also met with the Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates and many Cape Cod town boards and civic groups to gain their perspectives. The County Commissioners identified their own priorities in late April.

    In July 2007, the Cape Cod Commission's executive director presented a six-month progress report to the Barnstable County Commissioners.

    In January 2008, new Executive Director Paul Niedzwiecki made a presentation to update the Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates on progress (see slide show link to the right). The major activities were planned for completion by the end of the year.
