I have been a member of Town Meeting and have been awaiting a level of stabilization in the household before undertaking to get more actively involved in the matters of the community. Consequently, please accept this letter and attached resume for the purpose of applying for volunteer service on a committee/commission. Although I have perused the Committee Vacancies on the Town's website, I am relatively new to the workings of North Andover and have not shopped the opportunities.

House 1972 which is pending in the Joint Committee'on Election Laws. This bill would combine the presidential and state primaries to June 5, 2012. Currently, the State Primary date has been changed from September 18, 2011 to Thursday September 6, 2012. There is serious discussion to changing that date because of convention conflicts and other issues. I bring this forward for discussion with the Board. Mr. Campbell requests that"at this point, it could be something as simple as voting to support passage of H1972 and directing that a letter communicating the support be sent to the Joint Committee on Election Laws and to your State Representatives and State Senators." I and my Board of Registrars concur that this is worthy of consideration. We share the concern that proper time be allowed to send proper absentee ballots to our military and their families as well as other overseas voters. Veteran's Agent Ed Mitchell also agrees that we must do whatever is necessary to facilitate this. I will be at your meeting Monday December 5,2011 to discuss. on City of Woburn, Massachusetts v Q' 'y�OBPOflP'��`6 OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK WILLIAM C.CAMPBELL City Hall j City Clerk 10 Common Street Woburn, MA 01801 November 30,2011 His Excellency the Governor Devel L. Patrick State House—Room 280 Boston,MA 02133 Re: 2012 State Primary Dear Governor Patrick: This is to bring to your attention H1972"An Act Regulating State Primaries"that is pending in the Joint Committee on Election Laws. The bill has the support of communities by affirmative votes of Boards of Selectmen and City Councils across the Commonwealth—from Mount Washington to Amesbury and from Cheshire to Provincetown,Northampton,Amherst,Fall River and Gloucester,to name a few. H1972 would combine the presidential and state primaries to.June 5,2012. The bill will increase voter turnout,reduce costs of elections by at least$8 million,reduce voter fatigue,reduce security issues in schools by using the buildings less for elections, ensure that Massachusetts residents including military personnel residing overseas`receive a ballot and the ballot is counted, and eliminate any voter being required to waive their right to a secret ballot. Both California and New Jersey recently took the same action, combining their presidential primary and state primary to June 5, 2012. There is no question that the proposal is bold. However,these times call for bold action and new solutions to problems facing the residents and businesses of the Commonwealth. Rather than tinker at the edges and move the state primary forward or back a few days, with.all due respect for your office,I urge that you call for the adoption of H1972 swiftly so that communities can take action to implement the bill. The one objection that will be offered is that it is too late to act. In 2008,the Presidential Primary was moved forward from March 4, 2008 to February 5,2008. The act that allowed that change was approved on November 26,2007—just 71 days before the February 2008 primary. H1972 is pushing the election further out and therefore gives election officials more time to prepare than in 2008 where the calendar was shortened. It is never too late to act. His Excellency the Governor Devel L. Patrick Re: 2012 State Primary November 30,2011 Page Two Finally, it is clear that due to a number of Massachusetts statutory provisions which impact the printing of ballots, any date later than August will place Massachusetts out of compliance with the federal MOVE Act. The New York state primary is currently scheduled for September 11, 2012, The Department of Justice asked a federal judge to issue an order compelling the state of New York to hold the state primary no later than August 2012 as the state will not be in compliance with the MOVE Act. I am available to meet at any time with you or your aides to discuss the particulars of the proposal. Thank you for your kind attention and consideration of this important matter.

As you know,the economic climate continues to be difficult for many businesses within the nation,state,region and of course the Town of North Andover. Not only are the "big"companies impacted,but many of the smaller commercial interests in North Andover,are struggling to make ends meet. Additional tax burden from higher property taxes,will only serve to increase their burden to survive these difficult economic times. As such,) respectfully request that the Town of North Andover,not increase the rate for commercial/industrial property,and if possible ,reduce the c/i rate. Thank you for this opportunity to present the view of the Chamber. I expect to be present at your hearing of December 5.
