HomeMy WebLinkAbout1982Annual Report Town of North Andover Massachusetts 1982 In these times of "Every Man for Himself" the Town of North Andover is indeed unique and fortunate. Unique for a Town of this size and in this day and age to conduct its business by the time-honored New England Town Meeting. Fortunate in the fact that we are able to find the best people for the many facets of serving the Town. Whether they are our department heads, elected officials or those who give innumerable hours to serve on the many appointed committees that make our Town run smoothly and efficiently. This year we have chosen to include pictures of some of the many people who serve you - the people of North Andover. These are the people who make North Andover "Our Town". The Town Report Committee is indebted to the Town department heads and deparmental employees for their cooperation in the work of compiling these reports and to Karen Robertson of the Selectmen's Office for her expert technical advise. We would also like to thank Raymond Maynard for supplying the photos in this year's report. TOWN REPORT COMMITTEE Raymond Maynard, Chairman Lois Cushing Ida E. Harwood Margaret P. Lawlor Daniel Long Martha Salisbury This Annual Report is dedicated to the memory of John Coady Gustave Weigel (1926-1982) (1929-1982) Both John Coady and Gus Weigel selected North Andover as the community in which to live and raise their families. Both exemplify the outstanding characteristic of many North Andover people, that is their dedication to become involved for the betterment of their neighbors and their community. John Coady served as a member of the Personnel Board and as a Selectman. His ability to reconcile conflicting opinions was a Steading and guiding influence for the Town during a period of significant change. Gus Weigel was a member and chairman of the Advisory Board where his dedication to his responsibilities provided direction and reassurance to his fellow Advisory Board members and to the community. The people of North Andover have been fortunate to have John Coady and Gustave Weigel as friends and neighbors. They join a long list of men and women dedicated to our Town. Board of Selectmen The Board started off 1982 with a reorganization meeting at which time Thomas J. McEvoy was elected Chairman, R. Louis DiFruscio was elected Chairman of the Licensing Commissioners, and Ralph R. Joyce, Esq. was elected Clerk of both Boards. During the year, the Selectmen made a number of appointments to various committees and positions in the Town. After several years of having an Acting Fire Chief, the Board finally received a list from Civil Service and was able to appoint William Dolan as Fire Chief. We wish to thank Dennis Currier for the excellent job he did as the Acting Fire Chief. It was a difficult job to fill the position on an acting basis, but Dennis accepted the responsibility and performed in a very professional and dedicated manner. The Board, along with all the Townspeople, were deeply saddened by the passing of John F. Coady. Jack served several years on the Board of Selectmen, as well as serving on several other Town boards. He was a dedicated Town official and had a sincere interest in the well being of the Town. Above all, however, he was a family man in the truest sense of the word. We all will miss him and our sincerest condolences are extended to the Coady family. The Selectmen have requested that our Administrator submit a report to the Town on our activities for the year. The Selectmen enjoyed participating in many Town activities such as parades, holiday celebrations, banquets, etc. As always, the Board would like to express its deep appreciation and thanks to our State officials, Town committees, department heads, and employees. We would also like to recognize the efforts of our administrator, Brian F. Sullivan and our secretaries, Alice M. Letarte and Karen A. Robertson, for their assistance during the year. Respectfully submitted, Thomas J. McEvoy, Chairman Charles A. Salisbury John W. Graham Ralph R. Joyce, Esq. R. Louis DiFruscio Board of Selectmen: Top: Ralph R. Joyce, Esq., Thomas J. McEvoy, Chm. Bottom: R. Louis DiFruscio, Charles A. Salisbury, John W. Graham Executive Secretary The year 1982 was an active one for this office. The increasing responsibilities placed upon the office of the Board of Selectmen through new federal, state, and local legislation has required a greater commitment of time and effort on the part of each Selectman and his Executive Secretary. In addition to regular weekly meetings, numerous work sessions were held during the year. Routine administration, which keeps this office busy, includes maintenance of Town buildings, awarding of contracts, approving payment of bills, issuing licenses, defending suites against the Town, administration of insurance programs, preparation of jury lists, appointments of committees, and processing citizen complaints. Other areas which required the time and attention of this office are listed below. Collective Bargaining In this area, the Executive Secretary conducted research and provided assistance to the Selectmen in negotiating contracts. Numerous negotiating sessions were held with the police, fire, and municipal employees unions. In · this period of high inflation and Proposition 2 1/2, our job of negotiating a fair agreement with our employees has become increasingly difficult. We were, however, successful in reaching agreements with all the unions. Town Meetinq As a result of a lot of hard work and cooperation among and between Town officials and department heads, the budget deliberations at Town Meeting went relatively smooth. Although the budgets were fairly restricted and the capital projects limited, service reductions and layoffs were minimal. This was due mainly to the actions taken by Town Meeting last year when it increased the free cash fund, thereby making additional funds available this year. This action had the added benefit of improving the Town's cash flow and reduced our borrowing costs. Because the revaluation program is not expected to be completed until some time after January, the final tax rate for fiscal year 1983 will not be set until then. As a result, estimated tax bills will be sent out in the fall of 1982. Adjustments for the new assessments will be made in the second half bills mailed out in the spring. When the final rate is set, it is expected to be in the $16.00 range, well below the 2 1/2 limit of $25.00. NESWC After several long years of hard work, it apears that the North East Resource Recovery Project is about set to go. Financing is expected to be completed after the first of the year, and construction will commence in mid summer. A major positive development related to this project was the passage of the legislation submitted by the Board to put a CPI escalator on our $1.00 per ton host community fee. As the host community for the plant, the Town receives $1.00 for every ton of refuse processed. Prior to passage of the legislation, the dollar was fixed with no provision to adjust it. Now the dollar is automatically adjusted with inflation retroactive to January, 1981. As a result, the host communitee fee is projected to be approximately $1.50 per ton three years from now when the plant starts operating. Before, over the 20 year life of the contract, we would have received approximately $10 million. With the CPI escalator, we will now receive in the neighborhood of $25 million. Clearly this will have a major impact on the Town's finances. We want to express our deep appreciation for all the efforts of our legislators, particularly Representative Hermann, in getting this legislation passed. Joe worked extremely hard and spent many hours guiding and debating this legislation through. His efforts certainly deserve the Town's highest praise. Senior Center and Municipal Parking Lot During the year, the Town received notice that its grant application of $154,000 for a municipal parking lot behind the Town Building was approved. This project will be incorporated with the Senior Center project, which will be located next to the present Council on Aging offices. Although we have experienced some time delays in attempting to convince the State to allow us to transfer some grant funds to construct the quality building we ought to have, we are confident that in the end, we will have a center which the Town can be proud of and will serve the needs of our elders for many years to come. Lower Main Street Urban Systems Project It appears at this time that the Urban Systems project involving the installation of traffic lights and other improvements to the Main-Sutton Street intersection will go out to bid this spring with construction commencing in early summer. This project will be funded by the federal and state . governments. Although the extension of the project up to Waverly Road delayed the project, the extension will save the Town several hundreds of thousands of dollars in future expenses. The main drainage system on lower Main Street, which is presently inadequate, will be completely replaced along with the reconstruction of the street and sidewalks. Also, the railroad tracks on lower Main Street will be removed. Cable TV At the time that the Board originally solicited proposals from cable television companies to wire the Town, the industry was really just emerging in eastern Massachusetts and there was very little competition. Continental Cablevision was the only firm to offer service and they offered to wire the downtown area only, indicating that the economics were just not there for the outlying areas of Town and probably would not be for many years. Since that time, the industry has been growing by leaps and bounds and the competition has become keen. With this new environment, the Selectmen and the Cable TV Advisory Committee have met with Continental to discuss expansion of the system. As a result, we are now confident that there will be a major expansion of the system in 1983 and much of the outlying areas of Town will receive service. parking. Fine Program The Legislature passed a new law delegating the responsibility for the collection of parking fines to the cities and towns. The legislation, which required Town Meeting acceptance, was approved at the Annual Town Meeting. With a new local collection system in place, we no longer have the backlog of tickets which was commonplace when the District Courts handled it. All tickets are processed up to date and unpaid tickets are referred to the Registrar of Motor Vehicles within a defined time period. Once the Registry receives this notice, it will not renew the license or registration of the offender until the fine, along with substantial penalities, is paid. The primary advantage of having an up-to-date efficient collection system is that we should be able to look forward to improved adherence to the parking laws of the Town and improved traffic safety. Insurance Coverage In an effort to cut down on the rising insurance cost to the Town, the Board joined the newly created Massachusetts Interlocal Insurance Association. This is a non-profit organization made up of cities and towns in the Commonwealth who have joined together to provide workmen's compensation coverage on a group basis. The dividends and interest earned go to reduce the premiums paid by the communities. In this first year of the program, over 70 communities have joined and this number is expected to expand significantly next year. The Board will be working with the MMA in looking at other areas of insurance coverage where communities can join together to save some money. Smolak Agricultural Preservation Restriction In a major step toward preserving the rural, country character of the Town, the State approved the joint application of the Town and Smolak family for an Agricultural Preservation Restriction grant. Under this program, the development rights to farm lands are purchased by the State so that the property will stay a farm and go undeveloped. The farmer, in turn, has the cash to work with and is able to continue farming his land. In our case, Town Meeting voted to appropriate $20,000 from the Town's Conservation Fund to assist the State with the purchase. As a result, the Town qualified for, and is now co-holder of, the agricultural restriction (development rights) on a major portion of the Smolak farm. In conclusion, the Executive Secretary would like to thank all department heads, boards, committees, and commissions for their willingness to work in conjunction with this office during the year. I am sincerely grateful to the Board of Selectmen for their cooperation and confidence throughout the year. Respectfully submitted, For the Board of Selectmen Brian F. Sullivan Executive Secretary Brian F. Sullivan, Executive Secretary 5 Advisory Board The North Andover Advisory Board, in some communities described as a Finance Committee, is a Board of nine volunteer men and women, citizens of the Town, appointed by the Town Moderator. The Advisory Board, according to the Town By-Laws, is authorized with the responsibility of reviewing all the budgets of all Town departments and of making recommendations at the Annual Town Meeting concerning department budgets and all articles placed on the Town Warrant. Various department heads made it known to your Advisory Board of the limitations that were being placed on their budgets because of the impact of Proposition 2 1/2. In spite of the impositions imposed by Proposition 2 1/2, the Advisory Board feels that it has treated all departments equally and fairly, and this assumption is atteste~ by the fact that the Advisory Board has not received one complaint from department heads concerning budgetary recommendations that were made. The Advisory Board manages a Reserve Fund, which is used to transfer money to departments for unforseen expenditures. Town Meeting authorized a Reserve Fund of $125,000 for fiscal 1982. On April 24, 1982, at a Special Town Meeting, $115,000 was voted by the citizens of the Town to be added to the Advisory Board Reserve Fund. Due to unforseen expenses and the impact of Proposition 2 1/2, the Advisory Board approved for fiscal 1982 requests for transfers totalling $239,619.33, leaving a balance of $380.67 at the end of fiscal 1982, which was turned over to the Town. The members of the Advisory Board receive no financial compensation for their services on the Board, and approximately 50 meetings of the Advisory Board were held concerning department budgetary hearings and transfer hearings.

Animal Inspector The report of the Animal Inspector is as follows: 46 farms and premises owning large animals inspected and health certificates issued. 7 dogs quarantined as rabies suspects. 3 certificates issued for importation of dairy cows. Respectfully submitted, Robert E. Atwood Animal Inspector Board of Appeals The Board of Appeals has again maintained a full schedule this year with regular meetings and 5 special meetings being conducted. 11 Petitions filed for variances and special permits numbered at 46, and following presentations to the Board at public hearings, 26 were granted, 14 were denied, and 6 were withdrawn. As in previous years, the majority of the requests were for setback and area variances. A variety of others were for conversions and additions. Public hearings were customarily held on the second Monday of each month in the Town Building Meeting Room unless otherwise advertised due to displacement by Monday holidays. The Board would like to express its thanks to the Building Inspector for his professional assistance provided both at our monthly meetings and on a day-to-day basis.

As a result of the 1982 Town Meeting, we have begun to retrofit and replace our self-contained breathing apparatus to meet the federal requirements. Lt. William Imlnski has been accepted as an instructor for the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy. Firefighters Mike Long and Bruce Allen completed the seven-week recruit training program at the academy in the fall of 1982, becoming the first two men on the department to attend this school. The department has had six additional CPR instructors certified to teach Cardio Pulmonary Resusitation. The department has become more active in the area of "in-service inspections", and with the aid of Firefighter Dennis Currier, we are mapping the Town for use in pre-fire planning. During the week of October 3, we sponsored a week of educational classes in fire prevention with the best showing at the course for baby sitters. That course was run in conjunction with the Police Department and Officer David Rand. One of our major concerns has been to conserve energy in the heating of the stations. The men of the department have weatherstripped doors, caulked windows, and dropped ceilings in the old station and tightened up the new station, as well as revamping the heating system in that station. We hope to see a considerable drop in fuel usage because of their efforts. We thank the men of the Fire Department for their cooperation and the cooperation we have received from the other Town departments. Especially, we are grateful to you, the Townspeople for your support. Respectfully submitted, William V. Dolan, Chief Dana N. Fisher, 1st Engineer John McGuire, 2nd Engineer 10 Board of Health Enforcement of the Sanitary Code of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts comprises the greater part of the Board of Health's duties. This Sanitary Code covers the minimum standards for all food service establishments, installation and maintenance of all septic tank installations, dwellings for human habitation, and public and semi-public bathing and swimming facilities. In several instances this Board prescribes stricter standards regulating these functions than those required by the State Codes. Community Health One of the Board's most successful programs continues to be the annual influenza immunization clinic for the Town's elderly and the chronically ill. Each spring the U.S. Public Health Services determines the makeup of the vaccine by estimating what viruses will be in circulation during the next influenza season. The vaccine is 60 to 90 percent effective, but not enough people in the high-risk category take advantage of it. Many of us remember the swine flu scare of 1976 when the government decided to inoculate the American populace. Luckily, the feared epidemic failed to materialize, and it is important that the swine flu fiasco not give vaccination a bad name because vaccination against the flu is strongly recommended annually as a preventive measure for high-risk patients. Hand in hand with flu prevention is pneumonia prevention. There is a vaccine available against pneumococcal pneumonia for the elderly and chronically ill through private physicians, and the immunization lasts for five years. The pneumonia vaccine can be given at the same time as the flu vaccine. Testing kits and vaccines are available to all local doctors, free of charge, for most all communicable diseases, and constant surveillance by the State Health Department and the local Board of Health have produced encouraging results. According to state statistics, there have been no reported cases of measles in fifteen months and only one case of rubella in fifteen months. Mumps still presents a problem, but the case load is gradually reducing. For chicken pox, there is a vaccine now being processed which will probably be available in 1985. There has been an increase in the number of tuberculosis cases in the 1981 period, partly explained by the increase in the number of immigrants. Our public health nurse keeps a monthly check on persons known to have the disease, persons with arrested cases, and anyone.with contacts in this or other towns. Ail of these persons must report on a regular basis to their private physician or the local clinic. Many take therapeutic drugs, and these drugs are administered by the pharmacy of the Lawrence General Hospital. These services are free of charge, and free x-rays are also provided by this board. Environmental Health Because of economic pressure, there has been a reduction in the amount of building construction and subsequently, in the number of septic tank installations in the unsewered areas of this Town. For this period, 126 new lots were tested, 72 permits were issued, and 122 installation permits were granted. Enforcement of the regulations of Title V of the Department of Quality Engineering accounts for the greater part of the time of this board. Practically all of the buildable land in this community is in the unsewered area. Construction is expected to increase this coming spring. 11 Plumbing permits are required by law for all new plumbing installations or any plumbing repairs. There were 171 permits issued this year. Any home owner using the services of a plumber should make sure that the proper permits have been issued by this office to be assured of proper work. Only a licensed plumber can perform any type of plumbing work. Our restaurants, markets, cafeterias, mobil units, and nursing homes are all inspected monthly by our registered sanitarian. Food storage areas are checked out thoroughly, and bacterial counts are taken on utensils. Diary products are checked each month in regard to expiration dates and quality of the product. Sample testing is done at random among the various stores. Housing complaints are handled as soon as possible after receiving the calls. Many times it is difficult to locate absentee landlords which presents a problem in quick solutions. Public and semi-pubic pools which are licensed by this board are on a cycle inspection program. Water samples are tested by the laboratory of the Dept. of Public Works. Private pools are not inspected or licensed by this Board. The public bathing area, Stevens Pond, is closely watched during the swimming period. Weekly water samples are taken for testing. The Food Service stand is checked during the season by our sanitarian. Permits relating to all the above activities are issued by this board, and during this period, receipts totalling $16,913.50 were deposited with the Treasurer. Respectfully submitted, Julius Kay, M.D., Chairman R. George Caron Edward J. Scanlon William V. Dolan, Fire Chief 12 Board of Public Works The Board of Public Works herewith submits its 75th report containing the 84th annual report of the Water Department, the 75th annual report of the Sewer Department, the 57th annual report of the Park Department, and the 28th annual report of the School Grounds Department for the year ending June 30, 1982. Respectfully submitted, John P. Thompson, Chairman James D. Noble, Jr., Clerk Raymond J. Canty Superintendent's Report There were installed in 1981 -.1982, 8,084 feet of eight-inch and 272.5 feet of six-inch ductile iron pipe, 15 eight-inch and 18 six-inch gate valves, and 18 fire hydrants. The water main distribution system now consists of 119.08 miles of main pipe; 2 twelve-inch check valves; 1 twelve-inch altitude valve; 144 twelve-inch, 18 ten-inch, 341 eight-inch, 1,385 six-inch, and 4 four-inch gate valves; with 809 public hydrants. Size of Pipe (Inches) 14 12 10 8 6 4 3 Length of Pipe (Feet) 788 146,544 9,930 167,820 292,778 1,262 160 There were installed in 1981 - 1982, either wholly or partially, 99 new water services. The new and renewed water services equalled 2.19 miles of type "K" copper service pipe. 74 new meters were installed, 46 old meters were repaired, and 2 fire hydrants broken off by cars were replaced. All hydrants were inspected, repaired, and painted where necessary. The annual inspection of the 1,500 gate valves and valve boxes in the system was completed. Floridation has been continually maintained by the Public Works Department and levels monitored by both ourselves and the State Department of Environmental Quality Engineering. By-weekly bacterial examinations of the water supplied the Town were made by this department at our new water testing laboratory. Check valves between the public water supply and other sources of supply for industrial and commercial uses have been made in cooperation with the Department of Environmental Engineering. Town Meeting appropriated $15,000 in May to be used for a ground water aquifer study. This is the first step to locating additional sources of water supplies to supplement Lake Cochichewick and the Clark Street well fields. Many areas of the Town were tested and several promising sites were. located. Additional testing will be made on these sites to further develop their potential. 19 sewer connections totalling 1,430 feet were laid between buildings and main sewers. Cleaned were 95 sewers, most of them blocked with roots. All main sewers were inspected, cleaned, and flushed in the spring as usual with the flexible seweroder. Manholes were raised to the proper grade before the following streets were reconstructed: Thorndike Road, Chestnut Street, Woodbridge Road, Lisa Lane, Kieran Road, Sandra Lane, and Pleasant Street. The cooperation of all other departments is gratefully acknowledged with particular thanks to Tree Warden Leo Lafond, and Highway Surveyor William A. Cyr. Respectfully submitted, Joseph J. Borgesi, Superintendent 13 Playgrounds Department The playground system now consists of Grogan's Field, 4.7 acres; Drummond Field, 5.0 acres; American Legion Beach, 1.4 acres; Carl A. Thomas Playground, 4.7 acres; Aplin Playground, 1.8 acres; Chadwick Street Playground, 4.1 acres; Reynolds Playground, 3.0 acres - a total of 24.7 acres. The following work was done at Grogan's Field: the baseball infield was regraded, stone dust was used to build up the pitcher's mound, the skinned area was rotortilled and trimmed back, the baseball diamond was laid out and maintained for the junior league, the intermediate league, and the police league. Four farm league diamonds were laid out at the Chadwick Street Playground for the Booster Club. The little league diamond at the Carl A. Thomas Playground was rebuilt and maintained for the teams of the Booster Club. The softball diamond at the Drummond Playground was maintained for the North Andover Softball League and other league teams using the field five evenings a week. The 32nd annual swimming meet, held in August and sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 2104, was the usual success. The beach season from June 22, 1982, to September 6, 1982, made it possible for over 6,000 men, women, and children to enjoy the fine recreational facilities. Over 4,000 swimming lessons were given by Beach Director Walter C. Roberts and the lifeguards. The playgrounds, swings, see-saws, and merry-go-rounds were removed, repaired, repainted, and reset by the department employees. The basketball courts on all playgrounds continually in use were kept clear of snow. Parks - School Ground Department The park system now 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 Ground; and 20 small plots at street intersections - a total of 15 acres. Rea's Pond, Steven's Pond, and Becky's Pond at the training ground were flooded and cleared of snow for skating. All park areas were fertilized, mowed, and maintained as usual. An ever-increasing demand for the use of the Center Common for civic and privately sponsored events has made the maintenance of this area more difficult than previous years. The Public Works Department has maintained the school grounds exclusive of the buildings since 1954. The areas involved are: Bradstreet School, 1.20 acres; Thomson School, 3.00 acres; Kittredge School, 6.57 acres; Franklin School, 8.77 acres; North Andover Middle School and Atkinson School, 38.34 acres; and the new Senior High School, 44.52 acres - a total of 102.40 acres. Varsity and junior varsity baseball fields and the track and field event facilities at the Middle School were marked out and prepared over thirty times from April to June for competitive school events with outside schools, as well as constantly maintained for practice. The varsity, junior varsity, and freshman field hockey and baseball fields were marked out and prepared and maintained at the new high school. The High School, Thomson, Kittredge, Franklin, Atkinson, and Middle School Grounds and athletic fields were fertilized, mowed, and maintained as usual. The football bleachers at the Middle School were repaired, scraped, and sanded where required and also painted. Snow pipes were placed along driveways at all the schools to prevent snow vehicles from damaging turf areas. 14 Statistics of Consumption of Water 1. Population 1980 Census - 18,138 2.

Thompson, Electrical Inspector 18 Civil Defense I am pleased to submit my eleventh annual report as Civil Defense Director of the Town of North Andover covering the period through June 30, 1982. The following are major events that transpired during this reporting period. The Mass. Civil Defense Agency approved our 1982 Program Paper continuing our eligibility to participate in surplus property programs and reimbursement by federal matching funds of one-half of all Civil Defense salaries and admini- strative expenses. We have continued the refurbishment of our Emergency Operating Center (EOC). Heat has been installed and installation of communications equipment continues. However, the addition to the Town Building of the Senior Citizen Center will impact portions of our existing EOC space, therefore, we have put our future efforts on hold until the building commences, and we explore the possibilities. Hence, we don't foresee full utilization of our command post until some time in the early spring of 1983. Our Radio Officer, Mr. Joseph Sullivan, deserves much credit for much of the work that has taken place to date in our EOC update. For a number of years, the North Andover Civil Defense Radio Amateur Communications Emergency Service (RACES) volunteers were allowed the use of the Salem, N.H., repeater to enhance our communications posture by allowing us a rapid and dependable radio system in the event of a local or a national emergency. Recently, however, this repeater has been modified for use as a "closed" repeater allowing access only to the Salem, N.H. communications group and precluding use by any others, including North Andover. A review of our communications assets indicates that our two- and six-meter band transceivers are woefully outdated and that we have no reliable base station assets to insure expeditious communications during emergencies. It is our intention to resolve this problem by procurement of a local repeater for use in our community only. However, mindful of the budgetary limitations imposed by Proposition 2 1/2, the climate is not conducive for additional budgetary requests. We have, therefore, taken the following actions to try to gain the use of a local repeater. It has come to our attention that on occasion, Western Electric has provided a monetary or equipment grant to worthly local causes. Since many of our Civil Defense volunteers and Auxiliary Police are Bell System employees, who annually provide thousands of hours of voluntary duty to the community in t~e conduct of communications support to local functions or crowd control and vandalism patrols, and since Western Electric is a member of the North Andovex community, it seemed that it would be mutually beneficial for both the Civil Defense group and the Western Electric plant and employees, especially in the event of local emergencies, that we have a modern expeditious method of communications. Therefore, in the interests of community relations, we have requested consideration from Western Electric for either a $3,000 grant or their procurement of a local repeater for our use. We are exploring various alternatives in the event that our request cannot be met. Our Auxiliary Police donated approximately 1,200 hours of voluntary service to the community during this period. Some of the highlights of their services are providing crowd and traffic control of the 4th of July, Santa Claus, and Memorial Day parades; 4th of July dances; picnic on the Old Common including several road races; weekly vandalism patrols of public schools, playgrounds, and other Town facilities including all public property that may be susceptible to vandalism. They participated in the drunk driving demonstration at the Lawrence Airport assisting the regular police force in traffic and crowd control. All of the above under the auspices of Chief Donnelly and the regular department. They continue training including the 1st responder course, first aid, water safety, extrication from motor vehicles during accidents, and firearms safety and training. 19 Our communicators have been operating fixed plant radio checks from home or mobile during this period due to the inaccessibility of the EOC during refurbishment. However, weekly checks have been conducted, and the State Civil Defense net has been exercised on a monthly basis. We continue to maintain our communications posture and proficiency. This group donates approximately 900 hours annually in the conduct of communications exercises and weekly checks. The following are the current members of the RACES Communications Communications Officer Ridgely B. Underwood, Radio Joseph Sullivan, Jr., William Sherlock, Carleton Wilson, Douglas Richard Slade, Leonard Somers, Gerald Rowen, Joseph Demers, and Edwin CB'ers Joseph Whitehead and Ernest Harvey. group: Officer Wilson, Adams. Our Auxiliary Police group members are: Commanding Officer R. Dennis Dionne, Executive Officer Ernest Harvey, Patrolmen Carl Wagoner, Michael J. Twomey, Jr., Hilton P. Cormey, John J. Zaccari, Joseph R. Hamman, Joseph Sullivan, Jr., Richard C. Boettcher, and Eileen Burns. We wish to welcome on board our newest recruit and first female member of our Auxiliary Police group, Eileen Burns. Eileen has acquitted herself well in the conduct of all the duties of the Auxiliary Police group. We continue to enjoy the services and experience of Michael Davis of the regular police department as training officer to the Auxiliary Police. As usual, we invite volunteers to serve their community either in communications, Auxiliary Police (must be over 21 years of age), or any other aspect of the Civil Defense staff. Communicators must possess a valid Radio Amateur F.C.C. License. Any individual willing to serve will be considered regardless of sex, race, or creed. Suggestions to enhance our operating capabilities will be welcomed. Contact either the undersigned or any other member of our group for information. We are privileged to enjoy the services provided by the Radio Emergency Associated Citizens Team (REACT) Methuen Team 2771. These dedicated volunteers are always rmady and able to participate in response to emergencies or other worthly local projects. It is a pleasure to be affiliated with this group. In summation, I realize that the above services would not be possible without the unwavering cooperation of a lot of people. In particular, I wish to single out some of the individuals who lent us extreme support during the reporting period. These names do not necessarily reflect all of the dedicated people who provide us with many services in our day-to-day activities: The Honorable Board of Selectmen, Executive Secretary Brian Sullivan, North Andover Advisory Board, Police Chief Russell Donnelly, Fire Chief William V. Dolan, their respective departments, and all Town department heads and staffs. Also, Communications Officer Ridgely B. Underwood, Radio Officer Joseph Sullivan, Jr., all members of the RACES group, Sgt. R. Dennis Dionne, the Auxiliary Policy group, and last but not least, Deputy Civil Defense Director John Lyons for his sterling support. Respectfully submitted, John J. Coco Civil Defense Director, North Andover 20 Office of Community Development The Office of Community Development was created by the Board of Selectmen in 1981. The office reports directly to the Board of Selectmen. The primary responsibility of the .office is to administer federal and state funded programs in the Town. The administrative and operating costs of the office are paid entirely with state and federal funds. The most significant work that the office has been involved in doing the past year has been the planning and design work for projects to be funded during the first year of a three-year 2.4 million dollar Community Develo~ment Block Grant. These projects include a new Senior Center to be located behind the Town Hall, a new municipal parking area, renovations to the Veterans Housing on Francis Street, renovations to Fidelity House on May Street, a new drainage system on Ashland Street and the purchase of a parcel of land on the Merrimack River for use as an emergency boat ramp. In addition, the housing rehabilitation project in the downtown area is continuing. Two major planning activities were undertaken during the year. A comprehensive market analysis of the downtown business area was completed and an anlysis of the impact of the development of the Davis and Furber Machine Shop pretty is underway. These studies will assist the Town Planning Department in their overall plans as well as providing valuable information to business people property owners who wish to invest in downtown North Andover. As part of an overall street improvement program for the downtown area, the Office of Community Development has expanded the scope of a project _to improve the intersection of Main and Sutton Streets to include the re.construction Main Street from Sutton Street to the Bradstreet School. This pro~ect will include new street drainage, new sidewalks and curbing, a new street surface, redesign of the Main Street - Waverly Road intersection and the addition of parking spaces on the old Boston and Maine Railroad right of way. Money the engineering of this project is provided from Community ~uelop~ent Block Grant funds, and construction funds of approximately $400,000 will be ~rovided by the Massachusetts Department of Public Works. During the year, the office received a special grant from the U. S. 'Department of Housing and Urban Development of $112,000 to create new apartment un,ts in existing buildings that will be available for rent to people of moderate income. Qualified property owners receive low-interest loans to create .new rental units, and in return for this loan they agree to a rent level that will assure that people of moderate income can afford to live ~n these new This program is being administered in cooperation with the Bank of ~ew E~land Bay State who process the loans and handle most of the paperwork funct{o~s associated with the program. The next two years will be years of change for downtown North Andover as the progress now in the planning stage gets underway. Respectfully, Gayton Osgood CommunityDevelopment Director 21 Conservation Commission The North Andover Conservation Commission, a voluntary board, reports a busy and lively year. As in years past, the greater percentage of our time has been spent in administering and enforcing the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act and the Town of North Andover's Wetland Protection By-Law. In fiscal year 1982, the Commission received 30 Notices of Intent and held as many public hearings on the notices, issued 10 determinations of wetlands, held 29 public meetings, held 35 site visits, and numerous sub-committee meetings and work sessions. In April, 1982, the Annual Town Meeting approved an article sponsored by the Commission which amended the Wetlands Protection By-Law. The main features of the amendments were to provide an increase in fees required to file Notice of Intent, and the granting of the authority to the Commission to require the posting of performance bonds when work is performed in or within 100' of a wetland. The increased fees will more nearly recompense the Town for the cost of maintaining the Commission, and the posting of performance bonds will insure that work required to protect wetlands will be performed. The Agricultural Preservation Restriction, which was applied for by the Smolak Farm, was granted by the state. This means that now the Town has guaranteed open space in the area of the farm. Much of this open space lies in the Lake Cochickewick watershed area. In summary, the Commission's year has been full and active. Attendance by the Commissioners at meetings, site visits, and work sessions has been consistent. The Commission thanks you for your support in the past year and looks forward to your continued support in the future.

Personal Contacts & By Telephone - 52,132 - These figures have been sent to the State Department of Elder Affairs and verfied. 23 The Council on Aging feels that the citizens of North Andover have never been informed of the full program of services and activities provided for the elderly of our Town. There is a chain of service through the Council on Aging, the Merrimack Valley Elder Services, the Senior Aides, Social Workers, Home Care Program, Meals on Wheels, and Health Clinics. Two buses for transportation, visiting nurses, and many seasonal social events. This is a wonderful program for less money than many other areas spend. The Council on Aging thanks the Town for insuring the well-being of its elderly population. Respectfully submitted, D.

The first time the dog is picked up there is a warning issued for the violation plus a boarding fee. The second offense there is a twenty-five dollar ($25) fine plus the boarding and administrative fees. The third offense is a thirty dollar ($30) fine. The fourth offense and thereafter is a fifty ($50) fine. May I remind you that I just have to see the dog to issue a citation of any type. All fines are payable to the Lawrence District Court. Respectfully submitted, Gene A. Northam Dog Officer 24 Greater Lawrence Sanitary District Introduction The Greater Lawrence Sanitary District Wastewater Treatment Facility continued to provide service to residential, commercial, and industrial users in 1981. Since its initial operation in April, 1977, the facility has treated more than 46 billion gallons of wastewater that was previously discharged, untreated, into the Merrimack River. During 1981, the average flow through the plant was 26.96 million gallons/day. Since each community pays for their proportionate share of the District's operating costs, it is necessary to measure the amount of wastewater from each. In 1981, Lawrence's average daily flow amounted to 14.67 million gallons per day (54.39%), Methuen's was 6.64 million gallons per day (24.62%), Andover's was 3.34 million gallons per day (12.39%), and North Andover's was 2.31 million gallons per day (8.60%). These percentages are used to establish the annual assessment for each community. The plant is currently staffed by 64 people. The operation is continuous 24 hours per day and 365 days per year. The District Commission meets monthly to address policy matters. Operations and Maintenance In 1981, the approximately 7,200 tons of solids were removed from the wastewater, dewatered, and incinerated to a sterile ash. The power requirement for pumping and treating the wastes amounted to 13.7 million KWH or $914,000. The plant effluent was treated with 110 tons of chlorine to kill any bacteria before discharging to the Merrimack River. The septage handling facility continued to have an impact on water quality in the northeast part of the state by providing an approved disposal site for handling residential septic tank wastes. The District expanded its policy to include septage from 21 communities. The additional waste load is assimilated into the existing reserve capacity included in the plant. This excess capacity also allows the District to receive wastewater sludge from the Towns of Maynard and Rockport. This service is extended until these communities complete expansion of their wastewater treatment facilities. The monies received from septic tank pumpers and the communities of Maynard and Rockport are used to reduce the operating budget and assessment to District member communities. Special Projects In an effort to reduce operating costs, two projects were underway in 1981 that will reduce future energy costs. A belt filter press was installed in August to remove more water from the sludge being fed to the incinerator. This reduces the amount of fuel required to burn the sludge. The performance of this equipment in 1981 demonstrated a yearly fuel savings of $150,000. The project cost was $140,000, and the payback of the equipment was less than one year. The second energy conservatiOn project of interest is the installation of a hydroelectric generator in the plant outfall. This hydroelectric generator will save the District approximately $70,000 per year in power costs by generating power when the treated plant effluent flows through a turbine on its way to the Merrimack River. The project is being funded by the District and~ a 50% matching grant from the State Energy Office. The total cost should be $540,000. The payback on District funds will be four years. 25 The turbine and generator was purchased from the James Leffel & Company. Delivery is scheduled for December of 1982. Construction of the powerhouse and appurtenant facilities is currently under way. The project should be completed and operational in early 1983. Budget The District has worked particularly hard over the past years to reduce costs and keep the expenditures in line. In fact, the annual budget has been reduced over the past three years. The following budget amounts demonstrate this: fiscal year 1981 - $3.42 million, fiscal year 1982 - $3.32 million, and fiscal year 1983 - $3.29 million. The reason for the reduction has been due to improved operation, energy conservation, and the creation of a retirement system for the District employees. The creation of a separate retirement system is noteworthy and is described below. The retirement system was originally part of the City of Lawrence system and was assessed at a rate that did not reflect the District's performance. The District was new and had no retirees, and the assessment from the City of Lawrence was too high. It was felt that the District was paying a dispropor- tionate share for the retirement system. Legislation was filed and passed to create a separate system for the District employees only. The savings resulting from this action was significant and helped to keep budget costs down. Hopefully, the fiscal year 1984 budget will reflect the District's continued effort to keep operating costs within the context of the public's desire to achieve cost-effective service. Respectfully submitted, John L. Finneran, Chairman Greater Lawrence Sanitary District William A. Cyr, Highway Surveyor 26 Highway Department New Drainage Approximately 1,000 1.f. of new drainage was installed on Thorndike Road and Troy Road. This includes 8 new catch basin units and 8 frames and grates. 2 new catch basins were built on Waverley Road between Sargent Street and Railroad Square. Also installed 160 1.f. of new 12" drain line. New drainage consisting of 2 basin units and 140 1.f. of pipe at the intersection of Chestnut Street and Longwood Avenue.

This should help prolong the life of street maintenance. Stone Bounds Set thirty stone bounds at various locations under the direction of the County Engineers on Salem Street, Forest Street, and Main Street. Painted all guard rails that needed painting. 27 Sidewalks Installed new Stevens Street. sidewalks along Pleasant Street from Osgood Street to Ail streets in Town were swept in the spring. Bulk leaves pick-up was provided during the last three weeks of October and the month of November. Brush and grass was cut at intersections and shoulders of all Town roads where needed. Put snow fencing at various locations throughout Town. I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the Highway Department staff and the Town boards and departments for their help and cooperation throughout the past year, and I would like to thank the people of North Andover for the privilege of serving as your Highway Surveyor. Respectfully submitted, William A. Cyr Highway Surveyor Historical Commission During the past year, the nomination of the Machine Shop Village District by the Historical Commission to the National Historic Register was finalized. Two local districts, the Old Center and the Machine Shop Village, are now listed in the National Register. The Town-wide historical inventory of architecturally notable structures has been enlarged. Additional structures will be analyzed throughout the coming year. The Commission has begun to evaluate the Town archives, currently located in the Town Building. The Commission also plans to publish a historical brochure of North Andover in the coming year. Respectfully submitted, Louisa King, Chairman Anna C. Howes Maria Ward Martha Larson Caroline Cole Kathleen Szyska Mary S. Hart 28 Housing Authority As Executive Director, I am pleased to submit, on behalf of the North Andover Housing Authority Board of Directors and its Chairman, Joseph J. Morkeski, the Authority's 34th Annual Report for fiscal year ending September 30, 1982. The report has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 12lB of the General Laws of Massachusetts, which governs housing authorities. During the year, the Authority has assisted and provided low-rent subsidized units for approximately 350 citizens of our Town. These low-rent units are distributed in five developments, which consist of 239 units of elderly and 24 units of veteran's housing. As well as our publicly-owned apartments, the Authority also administers, through the use of Pederal funds, a rental subsidy program. The program subsidizes tenants in existing housing that is funded pursuant to Section 8 of the United States Housing Act of 1937. An Annual Contribution Contract has been executed with the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This program is designed to provide a Federal subsidy for housing to eligible moderate- and low-income families, as well as to elderly individuals. The goal of the program is to coordinate both the private and public sector for the purpose of meeting the housing needs of our community. It offers North Andover resident families in need of housing or housing assistance a choice of residence among virtually every apartment that qualifies within the Housing Code Guidelines and Fair Market Rental guidelines. The success of this program is greatly dependent upon the support of our local landlords, which I am pleased to report have been very cooperative. The Authority is further committed to aid in remedying the financial burden of housing for our residents. As of the publication of this report, the Authority has a pending application with HUD for the financial resources to fund an additional 36 units of Section 8. This fall the Authority completed construction of its fifth elderly housing complex, 60 units awarded by HUD totalling $3,539,565, with an appropriate loan authority of $250,000 over a forty-year period. Construction of this development began on September 9, 1981, and the completion date was October 1, 1982. The specific housing objective of this development was founded on our basic philosphy that the overall housing development would achieve innovative and creative architectural treatment, with high quality construction techniques, to be located so as to enhance a particular neighborhood and provide a catalyst for neighborhood stabilazation. The 3.3 acre site, located at the corner of Greene Street and Waverly Road, chosen for this development allowed for an effective integration of location, site layout, and achitecture which provided for an innovative design solution, fulfilling the Authority's program requirements in terms of maintenance facilities, office facilities, open space, and most importantly, providing sixty successfully attractive apartments. The scale of this development is complimentary to the neighborhood and provides for the preservation of an 18th century farmhouse. The recycling of this older building is visually a factor for the architectural theme. The building was restored and serves as the Authority's central office facility. Presently, the farmhouse is in the final stages of being nominated for the National Register of Historic Places, a future asset to our community. The record to date of the Authority has been substantial, both by the number of housing units constructed, as well as the high caliber of the developments. To insure this continued high standard, the Housing Authority has actively pursued state and federal modernization funding. The Authority has been successful in obtaining $123,154 from the Executive Offices of Communities and Development for energy improvements. Additionally, the Authority will be receiving from the Town's Community Development Block Grant funds, $190,000. These funds will 29 be used to upgrade our existing older housing projects with the majority of the funds being used for insulation, storm windows, and storm doors. Grant monies spent in these areas will insure both the comfort of the tenant, as well as energy efficiency and cost savings to the Housing Authority. Listed below the reader will find a breakdown of funding to be received by each of the agencies: Modernization Funding Received - 1982 Project State C.D.

Install new storm windows, paint all wood trim, provide new boiler, water temperature regulator, and clock thermostats. Park: Develop new park at May Street, adjacent to McCabe Court. The Authority will continue to endeavor to maintain its housing developments which will insure the future integrity of its projects in ~ manner to which the Town has become accustomed as evidenced by the ambitious modernization program undertaken in the fiscal year 1982.

During the year, the Board held 21 public hearings, 15 of which were held prior to the Annual Town Meeting concerning changes to the Zoning By-Law and zoning map. In August of 1981, the Board adopted their new Rules and Regulations Governing the Subdivision of Land following many months of hard work. We wish to thank all those who contributed their time and effort to this project. During the year, 2 preliminary plans and 3 definitive plans were submitted to the Board for review and approval. All of the subdivision plans were eventually approved with strict conditions imposed by the Planning Board. In May of 1982, our Town Planner, Miss Susan M. St. Pierre, left us to accept a planning position in Juneau, Alaska. The Planning Board would like to take this opportunity to thank Susan for her dedicated years in North Andover resulting in a revitalization program for our downtown, a Condominium Conversion By-Law, a Planned Development District By-Law, and many more contributions she made in the three years she served as our full-time Planner. The Board would also like to welcome our new Town Planner, Miss Karen H. Pomroy. Karen joined us in June after being selected from a field of over 100 applicants. Our meetings continue to be well attended by citizens, and we thank them for their interest and input. We also thank Town officials, boards, Town Counsel, and especially the Highway Surveyor for their continued cooperation. Respectfully submitted, Paul A. Hedstrom, Esq., Chairman Michael P.

Respectfully submitted, Russell Donnelly, Chief North Andover Police Department 34 Recreation Department During January of 1982, skating on Sunday evenings at Brooks School for two hours provided many children and adults much enjoyment. This program continued every Sunday evening until the last Sunday in February. As in years past, the Sunday skating program along with the two weeks of skating during vacation proved very popular. During the February school vacation, five days of skating in the morning was provided. During the winter vacation, arts and crafts for the grammar school children were held at the Community Center. On June 28, the eight-week summer program started its 36th year. The program is held at seven playgrounds located around Town. Each playground is staffed with two instructors. The program consists of arts and crafts, field trips, softball, kick ball, basketball, field days, and many more interesting events held for the children of the Town. The program had a registration of 410 this year. Every week the program would consist of games in the various sports, arts and crafts such as pom pom animals the first week, tye dye the second week, Indian Day was the feature the third week, face painting kept the children happy the fourth week, the fifth week tissue paper flowers were made by all the children, the sixth week God's Eyes and spin art proved very popular, sand painting was the project in the seventh week, and basket weaving was the arts and crafts item the last week. Every week a field event or trip was held. The first week a Scavenger Hunt was held for all seven playgrounds on the Center Common. One of the highlights of the season was on the Friday of the first week when we took 212 children to the Muppet Show at the Children's Museum. On Wednesday of the second week, the field trip was to the Stone Zoo, and on Friday, we also bussed the children to Salem, NH to see the movie E.T. The third week the special event that the children loved was when we took the playgrounds to Hampton Beach for a day at the beach. A very successful sand sculpture contest was held. The next day we had our first movie at the community center and had an ice cream party following the movie. On Monday of the fourth week, the Boston Children's Theatre presented two plays on the Center Common, and in between the two plays we had Joe Carota, a magician, perform; Thursday, the playgrounds went to Golf land to play miniature golf; and on Friday, the movie program presented a Walt Disney film. During the fifth week for the first time, we presented a talent show. The show was held in the evening, and many parents attended. We awarded trophies to the winners. The Community Center Hall was filled, and a good time was had by all. On Friday, the movie Love Bug was shown and following that, Bob Alexander, a cartoonist, entertained the children. The sixth week was one to remember - on Monday, 103 children went on a whale watch out of Boston Harbor. We spotted seven whales, and the kids really got a big kick out of the show put on by the whales. The seventh week on the Friday morning before the movies, breakfast was served by the kids at the Community Center. The kids did the waiting on tables and cleaned up. The last week was filled with the following activities: we held a field day at the Middle School for all the playgrounds; on Wednesday all the children went to the Alpine Slide at Boston Hill; and on Friday, the instructors played the kids in a softball game and after, the children filled ballons with helium and attached a note and let them go. This ended our eight-week summer program. Much credit must go to our Supervisor, Lynn Evangelos, and her Assistant, Carla Polizotti, for the success of the program. Their hard work made the program as great as it was. The third segment of our playground program is our evening programs. They consist of: Pony Baseball League - six teams, total of fifteen boys, ages eight to thirteen, playing two or three times a week. This league runs from May until early August. Thanks must go to the managers, coaches, and umpires who worked hard to make the league successful. 35 Girls Softball League - this is for girls, ages eight to thirteen, everyone plays. We make up as many teams as we need and no one is cut from this program. The eight through eleven year olds play two nights a week as do the girls from twelve to thirteen years old. All games are played at the Chadwick Street playground. The directors of this league should be commended for their hard work - Lynn Evangelos, Kathy McEvoy, Rennee Schauldt, and Curt Niziak. A cookout was held for all the kids at the end of the season. 3o Womens Softball League - nine teams from twenty years old and up. The teams play starting in May and end near the end of August complete with playoffs. A party is held at the end of the season with trophies being awarded. 130 or more women take part in this league. This league is one of our more successful endeavors. 4e Mens Softball League - Sixteen teams make up this league playing at the Drummond Field and the Middle School. Two divisions make up the league with playoffs held at the end of the season. Close to 250 men play in this league. Games are played under the lights at Drummond. To help finance this league, a One Pitch Tourney is held during the summer with about forty teams taking part. Childrens Basketball - this year we held many clinics for youngsters in basketball. The clinics were held twice a week with both boys and girls attending. The Recreation Staff would like to thank the following for helping to make our 36th year a success: Lawrence Eagle-Tribune, North Andover Citizen, W.C.C.M., North Andover Police Department, North Andover Fire Department, Highway Department, Board of Public Works, the Trustees of the Community Center for supplying us with funds for the movies, and the North Andover Thrift Shop for their donation. Special thanks to the many people who helped us with the whale watch. Respectfully submitted, William McEvoy Recreation Director 36 School Department SCHOOL COHMI?TEE Members of the North Andover Community: Two issues dominated the activities of the School Committee: the selection of a new Superintendent and ~nsuff~cient funds in the annnal budget. In October of 1981, the School Committee began its search for a new Superintendent of Schools. The townspeople were encouraged to make suggestions as to the desirable qualities the new Superintendent should possess and the process to be followed for selecting a new person for the position. These discussions lead to the formation of a Citizens' Screening Committee in mid-November. Ten people were appointed by the School Committee and given the responsibility to aid in developing a useful application form and to screen all the returned responses. When the February 1st deadline for filing arrived, some eighty-five applications had been received. The Screening Committee went to work on reviewing the applications and by early March submitted the names of thirteen candidates to the School Committee for further consideration. By April 1st, the School Committee had interviewed all thirteen candidates at open public meetings and subsequently, selected six of these as finalists. During the month of April, the Committee visited the communities of each remaining finalist to obtain additional insight into their experience and talents. On May 5th, at an open public meeting, the School Committee selected Dr. Leslie C. Bernal to be North Andover's new Superintendent of Schools. We wish him good fortune in this new endeavor. We wish to express special thanks to the members of the Screening Committee for their invaluable contribution to this most important task. We must express our very special appreciation to Peter V. Garofoli, who retired as Superintendent of Schools on August 31, 1982. He served our town since 1966 and the thousands of students who attended school during those years are indebted to him for the excellent educational programs he created and maintained throughout his tenure. We wish him a healthy and active retirement. While the selection of a new Superintendent was an exciting, positive experience, the budget restrictions brought about by Proposition 2q were a disappointment to the School Committee. After eliminating eleven positions the previous year, we were able to operate this year without additional loss in personnel. However, this was achieved partially by severely curtailing the expense side of the budget. The long-term effects of such budget limits will result in a deterioration of facilities and equipment followed by cuts in the educational programs. In spite of the lack of sufficient money, there were some few bright spots. Among these are the following: Some members of the teaching staff were able to attend a Computer Literacy Program. This was the beginning of a commitment to computers in education for our students. An experimental program for the gifted and talented student was initiated. This program is intended to explore what commitment North Andover Schools should make to enrichment programs. 37 North Andover School's Channel 25 Cable T.V. was made available and a policy was adopted for the uses of this new educational medium. The content of Channel 25 will reflect the needs of the educational community and the Town. Specifically, the programs should provide information, instruction and stimulate interest in the arts. Freshman sports, which were cut due to Proposition 2~, were reinstituted because of financial help from a parent support group. The Saturday Morning Gym Program was also made possible through community support. The School Committee members look to next year with mixed emotions. The continued money restrictions are disturbing, but will challenge us to be creative in the use of our resources so that we may continue to provide our students with good educational oppor- tunities. We pledge our best efforts to meet this challenge. North Andover School Co~m~ittee Robert E. Mascola, Chairman James P. Gordon Mark S. DiSalvo John J. Gaffny, III Joseph A.

NORTH ANDOVER PUBLIC SCHOOLS NORTH ANDOVER, MASSACHUSETTS Report of Leslie C. Bernal, S~perintendent of Schools Dear Members of the School Committee and Citizens: Peter V. Garofoli, Superintendent of Schools in North Andover from January 15, 1967, retired effective August 31, 1982. As the newly elected Superintendent of Schools, it was my pleasure to read and review the program reports submitted to Superintendent Garofoli by the principals and supervisors. From this review, I respectfully present to the Town, the annual report of the Superintendent of Schools. Respectfully submitted, Leslie C. Bernal Superintendent of Schools were: School system goals as approved by the School Committee for the academic year 1981-82 1. To improve communication among teachers, students, parents, administrators and School Committee. 2. To evaluate and continue implementing Basic Minimum Competency. 3. To implement a gifted and talented program. 4. To teach respect for property and individuals. 5. To centinue the emphasis on reading, writing, listening and speaking, with particular emphasis on writing skills. These goals were accomplished for the most part. More information concerning these goals will be included in other sections of this ~eport. ENROLLMENT Enrollment figures for October 1, 1981 compared with figures for October 1, 1980 showed a decrease of fifty-four students. This decrease occurred principally at the primary grade levels. Present indications are that for the next few years enrollment in elementary schools will continue to decrease, while middle and high schools will remain at present levels. CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION On the following pages are highlights of program and instructional achievements as submitted by department personnel. DEPARTMENT OF SPECIAL NEEDS During 1981-82, four hundred eighty-three students with special needs were provided a variety of services. The services fall under five general categories: 39 I. Therapy Programs An excellent speech and language therapy program was provided for students with disorders in this area. Two and one-half therapists worked with children individually and in small groups. A standard testing report form was developed to assist parents' understanding of test results. Occupational Therapy was provided for children whose fine motor ability (writing for example) was severely impaired. A half-time Occupational Therapist was hired with funds provided under a federal grant. Physical Therapy was provided through the Greater Lawrence Educational Collaborative for students with an impaired ability to move effectively. Psychological treatment and diagnostic services for students and their families were provided by the Greater Lawrence Psychological Services and the Greater Lawrence Mental Health Center. Group therapy and individual treatment both in school and at the respective clinics allowed students to continue their education with a minimum of stress and disruption. II. Learning Centers Children with mild roadblocks to learning received tutoring in supplement to their regular class. Specially trained teachers assisted students with specialized materials in small group settings. III. Resource Rooms Children with moderate handicapping conditions received services through the resource room. Learning problems, as well as behavior difficulties, were met through specialized curricula. System-wide resource rooms were divided into three areas: Learning disabilities, Behavior disorders and Slow learners. This division allowed each~sability grouping to pursue appropriate learning activities. IV. Collaborative Programs Severely handicapped children received services through appropriate collaborative programs. These programs included a transitional employment program for high school age special needs .studemts, a program for emotionally involved adolescents, a preschool program and access to the many programs in each of the collaborative communities, which included Andover, Lawrence, Haverhill and Methuen. V. Private School Programs · If a local or collaborative program was not available to meet the needs of the special needs child, private school placement was utilized. The number of out-of-district place- ments in private programs has been reduced by 35% since September 1980. It is planned to continue this reduction as more local options are developed. SYSTEM-WIDE CURRICULUM PROGRAMS I. Audio/Visual De~a.rtment Mr. John R. Robinson, Audio/Visual and Data Processing Coordinator, reported high usage of audio/visual software and hardware in all schools. The circulation statistics strongly supported this statement. 4O II. Data Processing Terminals at the high and middle schools were "on line," Student data was fed directly to the computer located at the Greater Lawrence Technical High School. Atten- dance information was up-dated on a daily basis. Perhaps the greatest problem was in meeting the report card schedule. The problem was directly connected with the O?TISCAN reading machine. Because of the success of the "on line" attendance system, the grade reporting also went "on line." When this was accomplished, report cards were accurate and on schedule. III, Since March, 1982, Cablevision Channel 25 has been "on the air" broadcasting weekly school programs. PrO 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 The following programs were presented from March 1982 through June 1982: North Andover Town Elections 1982 Career Day at North Andover High School In-Service Cerriculum Day, What Is It? A Look At Our Community School A Visit'To The Textile Museum With Franklin Grade 5 A Video Tour of North Andover High School Drug Awareness for Parents "Anything Goes" .... North Andover High School Play "Shirley Holmes And The F.B.I." .... Kittredge Play A Look at Title I Channel 25--Four Months Later A four-page character generator broadcasted the school lunch menu, school department information and town announcements on a twenty-four hour basis. School related programs are televised on Tuesdays, at 7:00 p.m. and Thursdays, at 6:00 p.m. The same program was repeated both nights. IV. Art During the 1981-82 school year, the Art Department received both local and national recognition for its participation in design projects, community activities, (local and state level) and award programs. Students received awards from the Massachusetts Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons for their participation in a state-wide program promoting eye care awareness through the design of a logo. The Andover Artist's Guild awarded second and third prizes, two honorable mentions, plus two scholarships to high school students for their participation in a portfolio exhibit of secondary art work. Ail grade levels parti- cipated in submitting to the Town Report Committee scenes of North Andover, as well as illustrations of the functions of various town departments. Student art work was used on the cover, as well as inside pages, of the current Town Report. Elementary students developed posters promoting good safety habits at school, at home and at play. Secondary students executed a symbolic mural directory for the high school. The department once again received recognition in the National Scholastic Art Awards Exhibit, sponsored by the Boston Globe, and participated in by middle and secondary students. A series of art fairs and displays at all levels were held at individual schools, and musical programs were combined with art displays. V. Music 1981-82 was a successful year in music education. The string program, due to be eliminated because of budgetary constraints, was reinstated and primary classroom teachers implemented a revised curriculum, emphasizing Ella Jenkins (Dance and Song) methods. 41 Time allotments for all general music classes remained the same. Innovations in the General Music Program included: a. Introduction of drum techniques to children in grades 3 - 7. b. Introduction of movement and dance to grades 1 - 3. c. Introduction of musicals to grades 6 - 8. d. Introduction of historical background study to choral/band students in grades 9 - 12. Performin~ Arts Program ao The Summer Band Camp was held during the last week of August to prepare the half-time show for five home games. b. An evening program was held in September for all beginners in bands and strings. Three evening Christmas concerts were offered in December. d, Two Young Artists Concerts were offered: February and April. Middle and high school students participated in the Northeast District Festivals. fo The high school chorus performed at Merrimack College in December. g. High school chorus and band students took leading roles in the musical "Anything Goes." h. The high school band participated in an exchange concert with Amesbury High School. io The high school chorus participated in a Choral Festival at Haverhill. j. Three Spring Concerts were offered in May-June. k. Elementary choruses and bands participated in twelve PTO programs. 1. The grade six band performed at "Spring Thing," in May. m. The high school band marched in the local Veterans' Day Parade, Santa Parade, and Memorial Day Parade. VI. Communit~ Evening School The North Andover Community School was in session from the week of February 22nd, to the week of May 10, 1982. The program was run for ten weeks. The scheduled end of the program initially was the week of May 3rd. However, due to school cancellations for inclement weather the program ended the week of May 11, 1982. Due to Proposition 2½ the Community School operated only the one semester. Twenty-two courses were offered and 592 persons enrolled for the courses. VII. Alternative Evening High School The first semester of the Alternative Evening High School started on October 5, 1981 and ran through February 2, 1982. The second semester started on February 3, 1982 and ran through June 2, 1982. Both semesters ran for 60 days or 120 hours. Students were not in session during regular school holidays. The schedule of classes was as follows: Monday and Wednesday, 7:00--9:00 p.m., Math and Science; Tuesday and Thursday, 7:00--9:00 p.m., English and Social Studies. During the first semester, seventeen students were enrolled, and twenty students were enrolled during the second semester. VIII. Summer School This was the twenty-second annual session of the North Andover Summer School. Enroll- ment was 202 students in the strictly academic program necessitated by Proposition 2~. This enrollment represented a thirteen student increase over the 189 students who were enrolled in academic programs in 1980. Summer School cost the town $629.85, or $3.12 per student. Student .costs were down from $3.70 per student in 1980. Receipts of $4,187.50 were returned to the Town of North Andover to be deposited into the general fund to reduce taxes. IX. Physical Education Progra~ Each elementary class met twice a week. Classroom teachers in grades one and two taught forty minutes of physical education each week. Physical Education/Health teachers taught physical education twice a week in grades three, four and fivei once a week in grades one and two. Ail Middle School students (6 - 8) met twice a week. All freshmen took physical education two periods a week all year. Ail juniors and seniors had a half year of physical education with juniors taking the first half of the year and seniors the second half of the year. Sophomores took physical education three times a week for one semester and once a week during the semester that they took the required health education course. Ail class periods in grades 6 - 12 were forty-five minutes in length for a total of ninety minutes. A cumulative testing program (A.A.H.P.E.R.) was in full implementation for grades 3 - 12. In grades K - 2, students were administered a standard perceptual-motor test. The results, compared with national norms, were better than average. In addition, a Physical Fitness Testing Demonstration was conducted for the parents and students as part of the annual Middle School "Spring Thing" and field days were conducted at the elementary, middle and high school levels. Students at all three levels were screened for the adaptive physical education program. Over fifty boys and girls, K - 12, participated in the adaptive physical educa- tion program. X. Health Education Program Primary classroom teachers taught health education a minimum of twenty-five minutes per week. Health and physical education teachers provided the teaching in health educa- tion classes one period a week, for the entire year in grade eight, and two periods a week for a semester for all sophomores. Tenth graders had health education during the second and third ranking periods. Grades four and five bad a half-year of health education during Terms II and III. The Health Education Committee was reorganized this year and discussed the future direction of the Health Education Program. The Committee also presented a PTO Drug Awareness Program for parents. A two-day Alcohol and Drug Workshop was also offered. XI. Intramural Prosya_m Intramural activities, as a phase of the total health and physical education program, were offered to students in grades 4 - 12. Saturday Morning Basketball Program was offered to all boys and girls, grades 5 - 8, in the Town of North Andover. Over 100 boys and 100 girls participated in the program sponsored by the School Committee. An "Open Gym" program for high school boys and girls was offered two nights a week from 6:30 to 8:30, for a total of twelve sessions during the summer vacation. XII. Guidance a. Testing: The annual system-wide testing program assessing students and curri- culum was administered. Meetings were held with staff and administration reviewing the Stanford test results and their implications, individual student test results were disseminated to parents and results of the testing program were reviewed with the School Committee. Analysis revealed that the students were well above the National average. 43 The Minimum Competency - Basic Skills Tests were also instituted, according to Massachusetts State Board of Education regulations. A minimal number of students were identified as needing remedial work in basic skills. Those students were assigned tutorial help. Testing in Listening Skills will be introduced in the 1982-83 school year. b. Counselin$: Services in the areas of educational, social, and personal needs for students and parents were provided at all levels by the guidance counselors. Problems of complex nature extending beyond the school were referred for clinical evaluation. It was fortunate to have the in-house services of Greater Lawrence Mental Health Center and Greater Lawrence Psychological Center (formerly Outreach) for clinical counseling and crisis intervention. Referrals to private agencies/counselors were made for those who preferred that type of service. A first grade counseling program, "Project Good Start" was instituted in cooperation with Greater Lawrence Mental Health. c. Education/Career Counseling:~ In addition to individualized consultation with their counselor, all students had access to the GIS computerized program. Exploration of career interests, information of specific career choices, information on two and four year colleges are all available from this program. The annual Career Day program was also held giving students the opportunity to speak directly with experienced personnel in occupational fields of interest. d. Special Needs: Guidance counselors continued to be heavily involved with the evaluation and I.E.P. development for special needs students. Summary: Throughout the year, programs and meetings were held with student groups, parents, cooperative agencies, and others in the ongoing effort to provide services that come within the scope of "guidance." Plans for next year are to review those services in an effort to make them respon- sible to the needs of today's students and the community. Particular attention will be directed towards evaluating the testing program and developing a work-study program which can articulate with curriculum. XIII. Elementary Schools K - 8 A number of committees functioned effectively through 1981-82. The committees were: Computer Literacy, Health Education, Gifted and Talented, Spelling, Arithmetic, Goal No. 1, Kindergarten Study, Language Study, Middle School Science and Basic Skills Improvement. Each committee submitted comprehensive reports. Some of the highlights of these reports were: The Computer Study Committee was organized and began its investigation in mid-March. Approximately ten committee meetings were held, several with computer experts appearing as guest speakers. The membership reached the decision that in addition to the high school, computers should be introduced in the elementary and middle schools. Much work remained to be done in terms of selection of hardware, software, and program objectives. The Basic Skills Improvement Committees monitored the reading, arithmetic and writing testing program in grades three, six and nine. Also, they developed the proposals for evaluation of listening skills during the next school year. Statistical reports were prepared for presentation to the Citizen Advisory Committee, the School Committee and the State Department of Education and the general public. One of the most active Curriculum Committees was the Goal No. 1 Committee. System- wide, Goal No. 1 was "To improve communications among teachers, students, parents, administrators and the School Committee." This group met with administrators, teachers, parents, students and the School Committee in a serious effort to meet the intent of the goal. The Middle School Science Committee carefully examined the present science curriculum in the Middle School. The Committee reviewed course content, age of materials, cost, and lack of availability of material for various activity groups. The Arithmetic Study Committee continued to function on curriculum improvement. The math testing program was revamped and the arithmetic curriculum guide for K - 8 was up-dated. The Language Study Committee addressed itself to system~wide Goal No. 5, "To continue the emphasis on reading, writing, listening and speaking, with particular emphasis on writing skills." They submitted a recommendation for a new language textbook for grades 1 - 6, which was approved by the School Committee to be fully implemented beginning in September, 1982. The series title is "Language: Skills and Use," Scott, Foresman and Company, publishers. The Spelling Study Committee continued an on-going evaluation of the new spelling program. Experience with the new program was very satisfactory and represented a substantial improvement over the prior curriculum. The Kindergarten Study Committee met regularly during the 1981-82 school year. The majority of time was spent completing the revision of the kindergarten curriculum. Stated goals and suggested activities were written for each of the disciplines: math, science, social studies, developmental reading, music, language, arts and physical education. A complete list of basal materials was created. A Gifted and Talented Pilot Program was implemented for approximately thirty children from grade four. The program's thematic approach centered on oceans with four teachers getting the program under way in April, 1982. Under the Education Consolidation and Improvement Act Chapter II, a Block Grant Committee was formed. The Committee was made up of teachers, parents, administrators, representatives from private schools, Master Librarian and Audio/Visual Coordinator. The Committee recommended and received School Committee approval for expenditures in five areas: Computers, Library, Arts in Education, Audio/Visual and Gifted and Talented. Title I had another successful program year. The Evaluation Report from the evalua- tion contractor, Merrimack Education Center, contained the following commentary: "The substantial gains reflected by the pre/post test scores are a direct result of the fact that the North Andover Title I teaching team conducted an efficient, sophisticated, individualized program of instruction throughout the project year. The administrative and instructional staff are highly competent professionals who have developed positive relationships with the children served and have provided appropriate instructional activities." The Remedial Reading Department worked with diligence and effectiveness, and obtained good results. School 9 12 a. En~!~sh Department The final phase of the Honors English program became a reality during the past year with the introduction of an Honors course for students in grade 12. Already the impact of this program was noticed by the increase in the number of students who took the Advanced Placement Tests in English. Curriculum study by the department during the past year resulted in two changes that were incorporated within the curriculum for the 1982-83 school year. A new course, European Classics, will be introduced and the change in level for Science Fiction should strengthen the program and provide better options for the students. Due to the interest and enthusiasm of Mr. Edward Rudd, funds were placed in the budget for the introduction of a speech team. Seventy-four students indicated that they would try out for the team. Reading teacher, Martha Albondy used a program called "Degrees of Reading Power" that matched the students with the appropriate instructional reading materials that are designed to improve the students' reading skills. Students were quite active and successful in several outstanding endeavors. Foremost was the performance of "Anything Goes", directed by Theater Arts teacher, Patricia Maloney- Brown. The efforts of the students were simply electrifying and the cooperation from the staff was outstanding. Major contributions were made by Beth Graham, who directed the music, and Carolyn Sullivan, who headed up the wardrobe and costuming for the show. Paul Spadafore, Bert Noyes, Paul Gregoire, and Gerald Sanford all contributed their talent and many hours to the construction of the elaborate set for the play. Students in creative writing, under the direction of Mary Julie Connor, developed personal writing booklets as a project for the course in Journalism and Creative Writing. Seniors in the Honors program wrote, staged, and filmed a thirty-two page parody of Dante's Divine Comedy, entitled The Infernal Tra.g.edj! as a class project of their study of the medieval epic. This was an exciting, creative experience that indelibly etched The Divine~Comed¥ in their minds. Mildred Matasso provided the leadership and motivation for this worthwhile endeavor. Personal and professional activities of English teachers remained at a high level. b. Science Department: One of the department's goals was to have greater involvement with students, parents, and the community. The following methods were used to accomplish this goal. Letters were sent to the homes of students to encourage parents to sponsor and participate in field trips in science and technology. The response from parents was very encouraging, and those who became involved were most enthusiastic. This program will be expanded in the coming year. As part of a designed plan to become more active and interested in the study of sciences, a lab aide program was conducted by the science teachers under leadership of John Kappotis. Through this program students had an opportunity to apply the chemistry theory they had learned in class to practical situations. The science teachers were pleased with the results of this program and plan to expand it next year. 46 An analysis of testing scores revealed that the average for Physics was 678; sophomores and juniors scored in the 66th and 53rd percentiles respectively. These results reflected the many after-school hours science teachers spent with students to help them prepare for these tests. Through the efforts of our Department Head, Robert Bennett, a comprehensive program for the safety of the students was established. c. Vocational Education Department: Accounting courses have been modified to include hands on experiences for students in the application of computers. In addition, word processing techniques were taught in several other courses in business education, The staff submitted a federal proposal that, if approved, would expand the word processing program. Business teachers were involved in seminars and training programs. Nina Demeritt and Joseph Bevilacqua attended a training program for word processing. Helen Driscoll and Paul Spadafore were involved in a computer literacy seminar at Merrimack Education Center. Worthy of note was Nina Demeritt's election to the Board of Directors of the Massachusetts Business Educators Association. The MBEA is an organization dedicated to improving and promoting business education in the Commonwealth. One 'of the highlights of the year for the students in Home Economics was their attendance at the State Conference this spring. Two students, Kelly Anderson and Lisa Murabito, were elected state officers. The HERO Club wrote plays that focused on the nutritional value of foods. These plays were subsequently presented to the pediatric patients at the Lawrence General Hospital. d. Art Department: This year the Art Department was reduced to one teacher, Miriam Aubry. With her cooperation, the department was able to maintain course offerings and accommodate two hundred students. A number of students won honors, awards, and scholarships during the past year. Among them' were: Christine Hillner, Gold Key from the Boston Globe competition; Kathy Herrmann won second and third prizes and two honorable mentions from the Andover Artists Guild; the same organization awarded scholarships to Scott Houghton and Kathy Hermann; and Scott won one of ten prizes awarded by the Eye Physicians and Surgeons of Massachusetts for the logo he submitted. It should be noted that students contributed to the Town Report and painted a mural in the lobby. e. Mathematics D.epartment: No changes were made in the mathematics curriculum last year. However, teachers pursued courses in computer languages in order to keep abreast with the developments in the computer field. Programming in Basic was offered to the students and students who enroll in a second computer course work with PASCAL language. It is planned to provide additional micro- computers on a yearly basis to keep pace with the high interest of students in this area. f. Music Department: The activities of the marching band were somewhat less than in the past, as Proposition 2~ took a toll on the away football game appearances. Neverthe- less, the important responsibility of putting together a half-time show had to be accomplished. The High School Principal's impression of the band was that they performed at a higher level and maintained a greater sense of enthusiasm and pride over a longer period of time. The concert band expanded its repertoire to include music of the major periods and composers. The skill level of this group increased considerably. Students enjoyed the challenge and reacted most favorably. The final component of our music program at the high school level was the stage band. This organization had a degree of maturity and experiences that enabled them to develop into an outstanding performing group. g. Social Studies Department: Our American History courses were modified to: 1. Emphasize and remediate the imbalance in reporting the role of women in history. 2. Include a new unit that illustrates the changes in'legal and civil rights of minority groups over the last three hundred years. 3. Help students to become more aware of current affairs by utilizing contemporary sources and developing historical perspective. 4.Guide students in the development of elaborately constructed newspapers on topics both past and present. The department utilized community specialists as resource speakers for groups of students throughout the academic year. Several students had successful experiences working with young special needs students and in other types of volunteer work through the Community Involvement course. MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION I. Transportation a. 1981-82 was an unusual year for busing. At the start of the year, the School Committee voted to increase walking distances. One-half mile was added, making the walking distance for High School and Middle School two miles. Also, the elementary walking distance was increased to one and one-half miles. These increases permitted removal of two buses from the transportation program, saving an estimated $32,800, This was done to save money under Proposition 2%. b.

In 1980-81, approximately 60% were transported. 48 II. BuildingS 1. New windows have been installed in about two-tbirds of the Bradstreet School. The effectiveness of this program has been measured by examining oil consumption. a. Average oil consumption over the last three years before new windows was 360.8 barrels. b. Oil consumption the last three years after new windows was 276.5 barrels. The average saving was 84.3 barrels (or 23.4%~. Translated into dollars, this was slightly over $3,000 annually. 2. A rotary cup burner with an at6mizing burner for the Kittredge School was authorized at the end of the year. Ail remaining rotary cup burners should be replaced, and it was recommended to replace each year until all (five more) are replaced. 3. There was an increase of glass breakage each of the last two years. A five year table of glass breakage is given.

The annual report and legal notice were posted in compliance with Section 37, Chapter 98, of the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Sealer's report is relative to inspections, reweighting, and measuring devices of various types which were tested, adjusted, and sealed. Legal fees amounting to $662.20 were issued. $526.70 were turned in to the Town Treasurer. There were three outstanding fees amounting to $135.50 which have been collected and credited to the 1983 fiscal year. The department wished to thank all those concerned for their cooperation and courtesies during the past year. Respectfully submitted, Ernest J. Roberts Sealer of Weights and Measures Russell Donnelly, Police Chief 64 Stevens Memorial Library To the Citizens of North Andover, Massachusetts: The Trustees of the Stevens Memorial Library herewith present their 74th report which is for the twelve-month period, July 1, 1981, to June 30, 1982. To the Trustees of the Stevens Memorial Library: I hereby submit the 74th report of the Director. Library Statistics Fiscal Year 1982 Circulation Collection Adult 77,616 Juvenile 31,743 Inter-Library Loans 503 Museum Passes 171 Films 38 110,071 (1) Adult Materials Juvenile Materials Recordings 42,520 12,737 1,334 56,591 (2) (1) Does not include exhibits, programs, story hours, reference services, and in-house use. (2) Does not include magazines, pamphlets, maps, puzzles, art prints, and most paperbacks. The library continues to be open seven days per week - September through June - and five days a week in July and August. On average, we circulate over five books ~er capita, at an average value of over $100 per person. Despite the reduction of four hours Friday evenings, the Stevens Memorial Library has one of the lowest staff densities in the state (hour of operation divided by personnel hours). My deep appreciation goes to the dedicated staff who work hard to maintain our high standard of service. Adult programming this past year included a CPR program, craft courses, a medical issues series, investment workshops, and a class on macrobiotic food. Our displays were largely contributed by local artists and collectors. We are indebted to them for their generosity. The library was also the recipient of the Mass. Library Association Public Relations Award. The children's library was active this past year running a very original summer program, conducting pre-school story hours, showing films, hosting school visits, and providing attractive and timely displays. The meeting room, which is available free of charge to any non-profit group, was used an average of 20 times per month. Thanks to the Andover-North Andover Newcomer's Club and library trust funds, we were able to add a family pass to the Museum of Science. This pass was used extensively this past year, and we regret the lack of funding which would allow us to continue this service. However, we still have passes to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. During the year, the Trustees received many donations for memorial books. Many of these donations have helped build our collection of large-print books and have been marked with a suitable bookplate. 65 We continue to benefit from the services provided by the Eastern Regional Library System. Our ability to receive books and other materials through inter-library loan, to borrow films, and use other regional services helps us provide the best possible service. The emphasis of the library this past summer was to increase the number of paperbacks, to start a good collection of popular music cassettes, and to promote the use of microforms. Storage continues to be a problem with us, and the development and expansion of these services will help us to conserve space. It is with sadness that I accepted the retirement of Mrs. Elizabeth Allan. Her seventeen years of service to the library and rapport with the public are deeply appreciated. Russell J. Reeve, Director It is with regret that the Board accepted the resignation of Mrs. Joseph A. Maker who served on the Board for eleven years. We would also like to note the passing of Mr. A. Murray Howe who ~erved on the Board from 1943 to 1973, fourteen of these thirty years as Board Chairman. It was under his leadership when the two library wings were added in 1969. During the year, the Board approved the installation of a computer terminal to assist in the cataloging of books and the joining of the library into a shared automated circulation system. These two decisions will, in the long run, help the library staff provide better service by utilizing the computer to locate and track information and materials. The Board continued to guide the investment and expenditure of endowed funds and oversee the upkeep of the library building. We appreciate the inclusion of the library in the Community Development Block Grant for the improvement to be made for handicapped access. We extend our sincere thanks to the library staff for their faithful service and dedication. Respectfully submitted, William B. Dully, Chairman Mrs. Walter H.

This represents an increase of $547,455 over the previous fiscal year. Under Article 81 and 82, it was voted to use $337,000 from Revenue Sharing Funds and $1,167 from Anti Recession Funds as follows: $168,167 for Fire Department salaries and $170,000 for police Department salaries. Town Meeting also appropriated, under separate articles, $1,000,047. Of these articles, $7,932 was taken from a previous years article, and $20,000 was taken from the Conservation Commission. It was also voted under Article 84 to take $600,000 from available funds to reduce the tax rate. At a Special Town Meeting of October 5, 1981, it was voted to reduce the amount taken from Available Funds to $100,000. At the beginning of this fiscal year (July 1, 1981), the outstanding long-term debt was $4,426,000, and at the end of the fiscal year, it was $4,475,000.

Dewhirst, Town Treasurer 70 Tree Department Favorable spraying conditions, a normal Gypsy Moth egg hatch, and a virus disease which killed some egg clusters resulted in a dramatic decrease in the Gypsy Moth population over the past three years. Spraying operations started May 11 and ended June 25, 1982. The spray material used (Shade Tree Spray containing methoxychlor, malathion, and kelthane) gave very good results, and department employees covered about 95% of the Town roads. The Hemlock Street area was badly infested, and two spray applications were required. Defoliation from Gypsy Moths over the past three years has resulted in the death of a large number of oak trees in the outlying areas. A rainy June contributed to heavy foliage on trees and heavy growth of brush along Town roads requiring extensive brush cutting. The usual program of maintaining our public shade trees was carried out, and many diseased elms and dead maples were removed or trimmed during the year. Other requests for services such as removing low hanging limbs, tree planting, and brush cutting operations were carried out. The North Andover Improvement Society again deserves a vote of thanks for the contribution to the Arbor Day purchase of one thousand border pine seedlings which were packaged by the Tree Department and distributed to fourth and fifth grade students.
