The Town's Sewer Consultant, Woodard& Curran, investigated several miles of sewer lines and manholes as part of the long term plan to reduce inflow and infiltration, I/I. Repairs to the sewer system are planned for FY20 and beyond. SEWER PUMP STATIONS (SPS) The Town has the responsibility of maintaining twenty-two sewer pump stations (SPS). These stations are scattered throughout the town and assist the low lying areas in pumping the sewerage to a higher location so that it will eventually reach the Greater Lawrence Sanitary District for treatment. As with anything mechanical,repairs were made to the stations throughout the year. The following is a few projects that occurred during the year. • New pump installed at the Johnson Circle pumping station. • New VFD installed at the Dale Street pumping station • New motor installed at the Winter Street pumping station SOLID WASTE COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL SOLID WASTE AND RECYCLING Northside Carting of North Andover continued with contract collection and transportation of solid waste. A total of 8,482 tons of solid waste was delivered to the Wheelabrator facility on Holt Road. The division also coordinated removal of the Earth Day clean-up that was conducted by volunteers and two household hazardous waste collection days. Fall leaf pickup, spring brush cleanup and Christmas tree pickup were also conducted in this fiscal year. To help decrease the amount of solid waste, Simply Recycling began curbside collection of textiles in May. The Sustainability Committee's (formally Solid Waste Advisory Committee) efforts to promote and enhance recycling continued to be very successful in the past fiscal year. Programs to improve education and outreach, increase school recycling volumes, collect all numbered plastic curbside, and not allow visible cardboard and paper to be placed in the trash have appreciably decreased solid waste tonnage and increased recycling tonnage. Weekly collection of single stream recyclables, which means that all recycling materials may be put out for collection into one covered container marked as recyclables,has been very successful and continues to increase recycling participation. Appliance pick-up and operation of a drop off center for recycling at the TBI Facility, 210 Holt Road by our contractor, Northside Carting continues. Further, the DPW continues to provide drop off three days per week for yard waste at the Cyr Recycling Facility on Sharpeners Pond Road. A total of 2,477 tons of yard waste, paper, glass, tin, aluminum and plastic were recycled in this fiscal year. HIGHWAY & ENGINEERING The roads program continued this year, in part, with approximately $800,000 funding from the State's Chapter 90 program and supplemental local funds. Prioritization of the improvements continued with the use of an outside consultant that prepared a pavement management plan which investigated all roads in Town, rated condition of roads, identified repair methods, and costs. Using the pavement Management process we have been following a program that establishes a priority for how funds are directed to types of roads. The arterial and collector roads are improved with Chapter 90 money and then local funding is directed to the local streets such as neighborhood streets that never seem to get improved. Below is a list of the streets improved in FY 2019 which amounted to approximately 3.7 miles of improvements. PAVED ROADWAYS FY 2019 STREET LOCATION Longwood Ave Rosedale Avenue to Chestnut Street Hollow Tree Lane Winter Street to Cul-de-Sac Peters Street Andover Street to Turnpike Street Crossbow Lane Ingalls Street to Laconia Circle Boxford Street Candlestick Road to Salem Street Mount Vernon Street Prescott street to End Brentwood Circle Entire length Boxford Street Duncan Drive to Stonecleave Road Monteiro Way Quail Run to Cul-De-Sac In addition to road paving, safety and sidewalk repairs were constructed to portions of the intersection of Abbott Street and Johnson Street, Bradstreet Road, Sargent Street, and Ashland Street. In addition, construction of a new paved section of sidewalk was completed on Peters Street and the High-Water-Elm Street intersection realignment was completed and included making repairs to the deteriorating drainage system located on those streets and updating the sidewalks within the intersection. The Engineering Department is involved in major endeavors, along with the day-to-day requests for information from town boards,businesses, developers, and residents. The Department provided reviews, comments, and engineering input on various projects before the Planning Board, Board of Appeals, and Conservation Commission and worked on compliance with the Environmental Pollution Agency storm-water permit. The Department is continuing with its efforts to convert paper plans to electronic format and file them within its database. Some of these plans have been imported into our GIS. We are also working on increasing the functionality of GIS for the management and record keeping needs of the DPW. The Engineering Department also assisted the Planning Department and Conservation Commission with the permitting of a Multi-Use Trail that connects the Mills District to the Weir Hill trails on Stevens Street including coordinating the construction and site work of the new trail. The Department also completed upgrade of town-wide street lights to LED. FORESTRY & TREE MAINTENANCE Our skyworker bucket truck was active in this fiscal year including pruning, removal and planting trees throughout Town. Christmas trees were chipped in January and a large amount of brush was chipped during the curbside spring cleanup conducted in April. Our tree department crews again worked with the various Committees in many ways throughout the year: Christmas lights were put up in the Old Center Common as well as the downtown area which made for a wonderful and festive display, flags were put up along Mass. Ave and Main Street for the 4th of July celebration and veterans day, and wreaths were hung along these same streets for the Christmas holiday. PLAYGROUND MAINTENANCE The playground system consists of Grogan's Field, 4.7 acres; Drummond Field, 5.0 acres; American Legion Beach, 1.4 acres; Carl Thomas Playground, 4.7 acres; Aplin Playground, 1.8 acres; McEvoy Playground, 4.1 acres, Reynolds Playground 3.0 acres; the Gallagher Field at the Town Farm 2.5 acres, the Cyr Recreation Area, 10.3 acres and the new Foster Farm Fields 6.0 acres. This brings the total number of acres to 43.5. During the Columbia Gas crisis, Grogan's Field was used as a temporary shelter for residents and recreation vehicles(RV). With the removal of the RV's the existing ballfield area was disturbed and required rebuilding. A consultant was contracted to develop a design including plans and specifications, for the restoration of the ball field area funded by the Columbia Gas settlement. In addition to this project, the Carl Thomas Playground was removed and replaced with new equipment. RONa av,,, PARKS & SCHOOL GROUNDS MAINTENANCE The parks area consists of the Center Common, 8.1 acres; training grounds, 1.9 acres; Memorial Park,2.7 acres; Old Burying Ground, 1 acre;Historical Society Plot;Farrington Burying Grounds; and 20 small plots at street intersections—a total of 15 acres.

Architecture should demonstrate the cohesive planning of the development and present a clearly identifiable design feature throughout. Applicants are encouraged to use traditional New England architectural elements in the design. It is not intended that buildings be totally uniform in appearance or that designers and developers be restricted in their creativity. Rather, cohesion and identity can be demonstrated in similar building scale or•mass; consistent use of facade materials; similar ground-level detailing, color or signage; consistency in functional systems such as roadway or pedestrianway surfaces, signage, or landscaping; the framing of outdoor open space and linkages, or a clear conveyance in the importance of various buildings and features on the site.

For that reason, all site plans shall show reasonable plans for interior roadways linking neighboring parcels presently developed or which could be developed as fixture site development to a common access point. (b) The Planning Board may approve provisions for interior roadways utilizing joint access and/or egress, recognizing that the final design and permitting of access to the primary corridors is to be accomplished only through the access permit process of the Massachusetts Highway Department. The Planning Board shall have the authority to authorize the following density bonuses for abutting owners who develop interior roadways or feeder streets utilizing a common drive and curb cuts, thereby eliminating per-parcel access/egress points on the highway: [1] An additional S% in the amount of lot coverage allowed by the requirements of the bylaw for an existing or proposed use; and [2] An increase of one dwelling unit per acre for an existing or proposed residential use. (c) Applicants should notify the Massachusetts Highway Department as soon as possible of their . intent to utilize the provisions of this bylaw in order to facilitate an orderly and cooperative permitting process between the Planning Board and the State Highway Department. 1. The design should preserve and enhance natural features such as topography, waterways, vegetation, and drainageways. J. The design should minimize impervious surfaces and incorporate other design features to minimize stornnwater runoff. K. Mixed-use developments should maximize pedestrian transit-oriented development. Specifically, they should use "traffic-calming" techniques liberally; provide networks for pedestrians as good as the networks for motorists; provide pedestrians and bicycles with shortcuts as alternatives to travel along high-volume streets; and emphasize safe and direct pedestrian connections to transit stops and other commercial and/or employment nodes; provide long-term, covered bicycle parking areas; provide well-lit transit shelters; incorporate transit-oriented design features; and establish travel demand management programs at employment centers. § 195-16.7 Screening and landscaping requirements.

The 10 feet nearest the rear lot lines must be landscaped. D. Side and rear yards. Where a lot abuts a residential zoning district, the 15 feet nearest the side and rear lot lines must be landscaped. In addition, within 10 feet of the side and rear lot line, a buffer of at least eight-foot-high trees or shrubs must be planted and maintained in a healthy condition by the owner of the property in perpetuity. A six-foot stockade fence must be erected along the side and rear property lines to physically separate the residential zone from the Corridor Development District areas. The Planning Board may specify the type and species of natural buffering required. E. Building foundation. A minimum three-foot-wide landscaping strip must be installed along the entire length of each building foundation wall, except at points of entry/exit, lawfully required fire access points, loading/receiving bay areas, and any other structural amenities necessary and ordinary to the use of the building.

The Veterans Services Department is to advocate on behalf of all the Commonwealth's Veterans and their family members in providing them with quality support services and to manage an emergency, as well as a static financial assistance program for those Veterans and their dependents that are in need of benefits and services as outlined in the provisions of Chapter 115 of the General Laws. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES On August 8, 2018, Governor Baker signed into law "The Brave Act", introducing another set of improvements, which strengthen services and supports for veterans, their families. The legislation includes changes to existing law to include bonuses paid to the families of deceased Veterans. The Brave Act also closes many loopholes in The Valor Act diversion program that was meant to help our Veterans who are dealing with PTSD and other issues from their service to our country. All Veterans or the widow of a Veteran who is rated at 100% Service Connected Disabled are entitled to a Massachusetts Annuity of $2,000 per year payable biannually. The eligibility of each Veteran or widow must be verified annually. $199 Million Dollars from the BRAVE Act are being allocated for a 154-bed renovation of the Chelsea Soldiers Home. The Brave Act also allows for increases the Veterans tax write off program from $1,000 to $1,500Veterans Services of North Andover and Boxford has initiated steps to implement these changes. HIGHLIGHTS FROM 2019 • This office established a Veterans database enabling the office to track services provided. With this enhancement, the office is able to track federal, state, municipal, and non-profit services. The office created through partnerships with the North Andover Merchants Association and the North Andover Farmers Market, the Veterans Food Security Program. Through this program $7,000. of donations were raised by local merchants. These funds were then disseminated by this office in the form of tokens in $5.00 increments to Veterans and surviving spouses of low socio-economic status. Administrative Assistant Crystal Clunie was recognized by State Representative Christina Minicucci and the Massachusetts House of Representatives for her hard work and dedication to this collaboration. Because of the remaining fund raising efforts there is a surplus moving forward for next season. The Lawrence Exchange Club conducts philanthropy through causes in the towns Lawrence, Andover, and North Andover and have chosen North Andover again to host the site in 2020. In collaboration with the Lawrence Exchange Club North Andover hosted the "Field of Honor" in the Old Common. Family members of the surrounding community were able to purchase large flags, which were placed in the Old Common with the name of the family member being honored. After a week, the massive display ended in a culminating ceremony which was attended by hundreds. • This past year we secured a SHRAB (State Historical Records Advisory Board) Grant though State Secretary Galvin's Office in the amount of $11,090, which combined with another $11,090 from the Town of North Andover. The $22,180 was used to completely revamp the Vietnam Veterans Memorial at North Andover High School. The memorial is dedicated to the six brave service men who paid the ultimate price and lost their lives during the Vietnam War. • Veterans Services of Not Andover and Boxford was presented the Peter J. Gomes Award for servitude to the Sixth Congressional District by Congressman Seth Moulton in 2019. This office was also recognized by State Senator Bruce Tarr, and the Massachusetts State Senate, and by Representative Tram Nguyen and the Massachusetts House of Representatives. • This office has continued to improve our website through I.T. The social media coordinator has launched and helped to maintain our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts. These enhancements have contributed the Veterans Services of North Andover and Boxford having the most comprehensive website in the state. • The office has established a relationship with the Career Resource Center (CRC), who have placed 3 Veterans, of North Andover in a new career, complete with needed training for the position. This has taken some of the younger Chapter 115 recipients off of state benefits, paid through the Town and helped these Veterans to become self-sufficient. • Received requests from one homeless Veteran for aid. Also assisted 2 Veterans who were in danger of becoming homeless. This office was able to collaborate with the Veterans Administrations S.A.V.E. team to coordinated services for this homeless Veteran. This office was also able to collaborate with the Veterans Northeast Outreach program located in Haverhill to assist these Veterans in financial stability. This office was also able to coordinate clinical services through the Lowell Vet Center to these Veterans. Through these collaborations this office was able to foster positive relationships with these community partners. • Created a flag retirement box for citizens to respectfully retire The American Flag. The Flag retirement box is located in the lobby of town hall.
