Purchase, exchange, lease or value of real property
Interim Town Manager James Purcell informed the Board of a Mass Works Infrastructure Program that
provides grant funding for publicly owned infrastructure including, but not limited to sewers, utility extensions,
streets, roads, curb-cuts, parking facilities, site preparation, demolition, pedestrian walkways, streetscape,
and water treatment systems. The Mass Works Infrastructure Program will reduce the burden on
municipalities and streamlining will reduce municipal grant management burdens as well.
Public Works Director Bruce Thibodeau says that this grant program will cover 100%of the Osgood Street
sewer project including design, construction and betterments. This is a win, win situation for the Town and for
the Orit Goldstein, owner of Osgood Landing. The Town needs the cooperation of Orit Goldstein on this
project and Bruce believes that she will want to cooperate which will also enhance development and
expansion of her property.
This Grant needs to be submitted by September 8, 2011 and from that date the Town has 120 days for plan
designs.
Bruce will set up a meeting with Orit Goldstein to inform her of the program and to acquire a small portion of
property. The Town also needs a 2/3 vote at a Town Meeting.
The Board needs to make two motions and vote to move forward with this grant program.

Purcell to submit a grant application to the Massworks Infrastructure Program for the Osgood Street Sewer
and Pump Station Project. Roll Call vote: William Gordon yes, Rosemary Smedile yes, Donald Stewart yes,

Litigation

Pumper Engine 2. When he appraised the fire truck he was not aware of the extra options that were added to
the truck. His appraisal was based on the base price at$430,000 not counting extras.

appraisal including the extra bells and whistles.

Certificate of Commendation
Presented to
Christopher Spanks
For your actions on August 12, 2019, while on vacation, you assisted a woman and child injured in a
car crash in Oxford, Maine. Your immediate response, knowledge and willingness to assist people in
distress brings great credit upon yourself, the Division of Public Works and the Town of North Andover.
Thank you on behalf of the Town of North Andover.
Presented by the
North Andover Board of Selectmen

Tracy M. Watson, Chairman
Chris is the one who put the fire out and gave medical aid
OXFORD, Maine —A woman and child were injured Friday when their car crashed into a utility pole on
Route 26 and continued several hundred feet before the car split a tree and burst into flames.
Police said the car was airborne several times before landing in the front yard at 518 Main St.,near the intersection
of Routes 26 and 121.
Jessica Thurston, 28, of Bethel was taken by ambulance to Central Maine Medical Center where she was listed in
good condition Friday night, according to a nursing supervisor. Her 8-year-old son,who was in the back seat of the
car,was taken by medical helicopter to Maine Medical Center,where he was in serious condition,Police Chief Jon
Tibbetts said.The boy's name was not available.
Tibbetts said Thurston was driving south in a 1996 Jeep Cherokee about 11:3o a.m.when the car went off the road,
striking and breaking a telephone pole and sending wires across Route 26.The car traveled off-road several hundred
feet over neighborhood lawns before striking a 40400t maple tree,splitting it about 4 feet from the roots,which
were partially pulled from the ground by the impact.
Tibbetts said the accident was still under investigation,but it appeared the woman fell asleep while driving. Both
were wearing seat belts and the driver's air bag deployed.
Witnesses in two of the three houses that the airborne car passed said the vehicle was"flying."
"I heard a whoosh. It sure made a lot of noise,"Alberta Keene of 550 Main St.said. She was in the kitchen when her
husband yelled to her,"They were flying."
Another neighbor heard a racket and ran to see what happened.
"I stood up and looked and I saw this vehicle flying by,"said Bill Begio of 554 Main St.,who was sitting at his kitchen
table at the time of the crash. Begio said the car went over and destroyed at least one flower bed container on his
front lawn before crashing into two saw horses and a windmill he had placed on the side of the road for sale.
"I saw my windmill flying by,"he said. "It's all piled on back of my four-wheeler now. Usually,they take out my
mailbox."
A witness at the scene who was driving north on Route 26 from Massachusetts to his summer home in Bethel said he
saw a huge cloud of dust and the engine compartment of the car was in flames.A witness said someone with a fire
extinguisher put out the flames that were contained to the front of the Jeep.The two victims were still in the car. He
said he was able to speak briefly to

To members of the Board of Selectmen,
This letter is to provide an update on the Committee's efforts thus far. There were approximately 60 applicants
for the position of Town Manager. We've reviewed all resumes and narrowed down the field to those we'd like
to interview. Due to conflicting schedules and the upcoming ICMA conference, we will be conducting
interviews later this month. We expect to deliberate and vote by the first week of October. The pool of
applicants was very strong and we expect there to be several highly qualified individuals to present to the Board
in a few weeks. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have further questions.
