RECONVENE AND PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
NEW BUSINESS:
Recruitment of Town Manager
Chairman Daniel Lanen asked the Board to refer to the Massachusetts Recruitment Guidelines Handbook and the
Town Charter Chapter 4 titled "The Town Manager"for various resources for recruiting an Interim Town Manager
and a search for a new Town Manager to replace Mark Rees who has accepted a position in Portland, Maine.
The Board referred to a Suggested Administrator Profile describing the background, skills, and qualities that the
Board feels the community needs in an administrator. The Board reviewed the skills and past performance and
rated them in importance of high, medium, low.
Selectman Smedile stated that this would be the most important decision this Board would make and lobbied
strongly for hiring an outside consultant that would expedite the process and make sure the town gets a solid
replacement. An outside consultant that handles searches on a regular basis would be more professional than
conducting the search without a consultant. This Board is not in the personnel business and we run the risk of
make a serious mistake.
Selectman Donald Stewart said that back in 2000, which he was initially against spending the money using a
consultant for the Town Manager search proved to be the best decision.
Assistant Town Manager said there were advantages of a consultant in maintaining confidentiality for applicants
and screening candidates. They will interview and screen and bring forward the cream of the crop. The Board has
the option of limiting their spending by prioritizing their scope of services which would allow them to use a quicker
procurement process for finding a consultant.
Board members also referred to the Town Charter and discussed the appointing of a citizen search committee.
Selectmen would choose one committee member each to do the final interviews recommended by the consultant
firm and bring their recommendations to the Board of Selectmen.
Rosemary Smedile made a MOTION, seconded by Donald Stewart, to do an RFP for a professional recruiter to
assist the Town in the hiring of Chief Administrator Officer for the Town of North Andover. Vote approved 5-0.
Tracy Watson made a MOTION, seconded by William Gordon, for each selectman to choose one person each for a
Town Manager search committee and the Human Resources Director should be part of this committee. Vote
approved 5-0.

Facilities Master Planning Committee Update
Richard Nardella gave a report informing the Board that about 30 people attended their meeting and
discussion was basically finding solutions and the best options on using Town owned buildings. That
discussion brought forward the fact that the Emergency Management Agency does not have a home and
it was not in the original scope of the Charge of the Facilities Master Plan. Right now the Emergency
Management Agency works out of the Fire Station basement which is not adequate for their needs. If a
major disaster hit North Andover, the Emergency Management Center would work out of the new Police
Station, but this is just a temporary fix.
Nardella asked the Board if they would authorize the Committee to include finding a home for the
Emergency Management Agency in the plan.
William Gordon made a MOTION, seconded by Tracy Watson, to add the Emergency Management
Agency in the study for the Facilities Master Plan. Vote 5-0
Once the best plan is presented then the Committee would meet with the Town Manager and present the
options for the use of the existing buildings.
Selectman Gordon asked if a two level parking garage can be included in the study if all of the Town
office departments are located in the downtown.
If the Senior Center moved that would free up plenty of parking.
Wheelabrator Settlement
Town Counsel Thomas Urbelis informed the Board that he received letters from Assistant Attorney Betsy
Harper and so far 10 communities have returned the signed release. She said that the documented
history of the lengthy negotiations between Wheelabrator and the Attorney General's Office is indicative
that the parties intended that the Release does not cover all contract disputes that have arisen or may
arise between the municipality and Wheelabrator-only those connected to environmental compliance as
contained in the Consent Judgment. Attorney Urbelis he comfortable and is recommended that the Town
of North Andover sign the Release.
If at any time Wheelabrator should take the position that the Release extends beyond the Covered
Matters in the Consent Judgment, the Town should contact her office because her office would take the
position that Wheelabrator would then be in violation of the Consent Judgment which was entered as an
Order of the Court.
Selectman Gordon was concerned about a future problem because of the vague wording of the Release
document and what if Wheelabrator was in violation on other environmental issues.
Town Counsel said the Board could hold off on this or sign the Release tonight.
Donald Stewart made a MOTION, seconded by Tracy Watson, to authorize the Town Manager to sign the
Wheelabrator Settlement Release. Vote approved 4-1. William Gordon opposed.

each candidate for a finalist interview by the Board of Selectmen. The results would be available by July
19, 2011.
Selectmen requested Human Resources Director Cathy Darby contact the consultant Mark Morse to give
them finalist candidates in alphabetical order and unranked so they would not be influenced or persuaded
to a certain candidate.
Because the results of the Assessment Center would not be available before the Board's next meeting
Selectmen decided to cancel their scheduled meeting for next Monday, July 18, 2011 and reschedule that
meeting to Monday, July 25, 2011. Selectmen also decided to schedule a special meeting on Tuesday,
July 26, 2011, to interview the finalist and a possible announcement of the new Police Chief.
Note: Daniel Lanen and Rosemary Smedile returned.

Dear Mr. Santilli:
This letter is in response to the posted position for Facilities Director. Enclosed you will find my
resume. I believe that my extensive experience in the design, construction and maintenance of building
facilities is a perfect match for this position.
I was forwarded information on the Facilities Director position by Mr. Bruce Thibodeau, DPW Director
with whom I have worked on the North Andover Sustainable Committee.
My experience includes all phases of the building project including the preparation of design &
specifications, budgeting, planning, construction and maintenance for a wide range of facilities.
As a construction supervisor I have provided field leadership to include the scheduling and
coordination of all construction activities, quality control inspections and enforcement of safety policy.
My duties as a design-build project manager have required interaction with all stakeholders including
public approval agencies, citizen groups and building occupants. This collaborative effort along with
my ability to conceptualize the final product has enabled me to produce cost effective, energy efficient
and functional facilities.
As a lifelong citizen of North Andover I have had the pleasure of participating in numerous town
projects as part of"give back to the community"and look forward to an opportunity to further enhance
the public building infrastructure.
Thank you for considering me for this position. I welcome the opportunity to further discuss this with
you at your convenience.

Email: sdibacco @communityvoices.net
My name is Sandra DiBacco. I live in Norfolk, Massachusetts,with my husband and
d two children. I work part-time as a legal assistant for a law firm in Boston.
t 5 In March of 2004 Delta Projects, Inc. (under the auspice of the Department of Mental
Board of Directors 2009 Retardation)purchased a home with our taxpayers'dollars to be used as a group
home to house four mentally retarded men. Two of those men are level two sex
offenders. One was convicted of molesting a child under the age of fourteen; the other
was convicted of rape and aggravated assault. This group home is two doors away
from my home and children. It is located in a secluded,wooded area with 25 children
within %2 a mile radius.
This prompted people in my community, as well as myself,to investigate further into
the placement of sex offenders in group homes in neighborhoods. What we found out
was that there were no guidelines for placing sex offenders in group homes in
Massachusetts, and that the laws in this state are very lenient towards sex offenders.
Outraged by this notion, I began working with our local State Senator to get laws
changed in the state. I was interviewed for various newspapers and news broadcasts
including Channel 4,38 and 56. Two wonderful women,who have been active in
helping rape victims and exploited and missing children for over nine years,contacted
me. We are now forming this group to help other people understand the laws in
Massachusetts,or should I say lack of laws in Massachusetts regarding the placement
of sex offenders in group homes,the placement of sex offenders near schools,
licensed davcare centers and olavarounds, leaislation regardina the riahts of sex

offenders versus victims' rights,we also want to inform people on ways to find out who
the sex offenders are in their cities and towns,etc.
I have never before been involved in anything like this, but what I have found since I
have been involved is that everybody can make a difference. People need to help
each other to protect us and our children from these sex offenders and the judges and
lawyers that protect them rather than our children.
I am pleased to say that we have been successful in our campaign, showing that a few
people CAN make a difference.

I am a very proud working mom of four children. My children and my family are the
center of my world. However,in 2007, someone very close to me was raped, my
entire world was turned upside down. I struggled to find my way through the emotions
and confusion of it all.
Sexual assault is still such a taboo subject in our society. Although there are daily new
stories of assaults, nobody wants to talk about it or admit that it occurs, but everybody
knows someone who has been a victim.
After months of searching for answers and guidance, I happened upon Community
VOICES while reading an article that Laurie had written in the Lowell Sun. While the
details of the article escape me, I remember how she touched me through her words.
Before long, I found myself attending rallies and different events in support stricter
sentencing for sex offenders.
When I was asked to join the Board as Secretary in early 2009, 1 didn't hesitate for a
moment. I knew this was the path I was meant to travel. It's been a long road
tremendous learning process,and I've met many amazing and inspiring people
through being a part of Voices.
Being a part of an organization that is so dedicated and strong has been the best
healing process for me. I am committed spending the rest of my life working to protect
our children from sexual predators and will use my voice to make a difference.
