in the State. Consequently, there is a lot of land development with high
value, high demand, and the choice views that create real property wealth.
There is a lot of very attractive
development in the community, because people have the money to invest in
those waterfront or water-view properties At the same time, Falmouth has
a lot of agencies that are very attentive to the environmental demands
of that coastline, whether it be the Planning Board, the Zoning Board of
Appeals, the Conservation Commission, the Department of Natural Resources,
Shellfish Warden, Harbormaster and the Board of Selectmen.
Large geographical tracts of land
have been set aside for public conservation, not necessarily exclusively
waterfront, but some of the woodland and back land areas that are the natural
habitat for wildlife and are locations that also serve to enhance the attractiveness
of the community. Falmouth, like every community tries to retain attractiveness
in the face of growth pressure.
