RE: Afternoon Shuttle Service
DATE: September 21, 2011
Working with various Town residents a shuttle service was developed and deployed last spring at
no cost to the Town of North Andover. The shuttle service will continue again this year and will
operate in the afternoon. The shuttle will primarily serve the high school and middle school, and
will provide service between the high school, middle school, library, youth center and YMCA.
Attached is a map showing the route and schedule. The service began on September 6.
As a member of the Merrimack Valley Regional Transit Authority (MVRTA) the regional transit
authority provides public transportation services to the Town of North Andover. The MVRTA
is part of the State's entire public transportation network. As part of the network, the Town is
assessed by the MBTA using a funding formula that is shown as part of the State aid the Town
receives each year. Because North Andover remains under the assessment, which is based on
miles served, we have been able to add this service at no charge to the Town.
The cost for one way travel would be $1.25 for a full fare and $0.60 for students, seniors and
disabled.

SUBJ: Machine Shop Village Improvements
Our office is seeking an easement acceptance by the Board of Selectmen for the Elm Street roadway
improvement project.
The effort to implement projects identified in the Machine Shop Village Master Plan is underway with the
road work being done along Elm Street. As pant of the improvements new sidewalks are being installed
along Elm Street. New curbing and crosswalks will be installed as well as the roadway being ground
down and repaved. Driveway aprons will be installed and will be constructed out of concrete to blend
with the sidewalks.
As the plans were reviewed and finalized by the Department of Public Works a portion of the sidewalk
that needed to be replaced was restricted by a very large Elm tree. The replacement of the sidewalk had
two alternatives. The first would involve cutting one of the only Elm trees on Elm Street down. The
other option was to go around the Elm tree. This could be accomplished if the property owners signed an
easement allowing the Town to place the sidewalk across a portion of their property and go around the
Elm tree.
Fortunately both neighbors agreed to endorse the easement at no cost to the Town. Attached are the two
easements that were drafted by Town Counsel and signed by the Elm Street residents.
Our office is looking to have the Board of Selectmen accept and sign the easements so that we can record
them at the Registry of Deeds.
Our office will be present to answer any questions you may have regarding this project.

Green Projects Appropriation Request—Need for Special Town Meeting
Request To schedule a Special Town Meeting prior to December 28,2011 to request the appropriation
of$692,479 in additional funds for the three Green Projects for the School Department.
Background Three projects;the Atkinson Elementary Windows,Sargent Elementary Roof, and Middle
School Roof were part of the School Department's Capital Improvement requests over the
next three years. The initial estimated costs to replace in-kind totaled$2,941,000 for the
three projects. Prior to final decisions for the FY12 CIP process we became aware of the
Massachusetts School Building Authority's(MSBA)"Green Repair Program." We
submitted these three projects since they met the necessary criteria,and received initial
approval. Based on the reimbursement rate of 47.42%the Board of Selectmen and FINCOM
supported moving these projects up to FY12 to meet the MSBA's timetable. An estimate was
done based on the fact that the MSBA required these projects be completed per the"stretch
code."The stretch code deals with a higher standard of energy performance than the base
code. The MSBA criteria use the Stretch Energy Code regardless of whether the individual
towns have adopted the code or not. The new total,and the amount that was requested at
Town Meeting,was$3,880,000. During the process to prepare for final approval by the
MSBA it became clear that the estimates were going to exceed appropriations. As soon as
this became evident the Town Manager was advised we may need to request a Special Town
Meeting.The estimates for the cost of these projects had to be adjusted due to the reasons
outlined below. The final estimates going to the MSBA for approval on September 28,2011
total$4,572,479. This requires an additional$693,169 be appropriated for these three
projects,and necessitates a Special Town Meeting to appropriate these funds.
Reasons (For increase in estimates)
1. The MSBA requires more Project Management oversight, and more Architectural
Design services than was anticipated for these projects.
2. In order to ensure full reimbursement for all eligible expenses they must be included
within the specifics of the project,not as contingency.
3. Extensive testing was done by engineers on behalf of the Architect to give them a
better understanding of the scope of the project and the true costs associated with
each project.
4. Work will be performed during the summer of 2012 instead of 2011 resulting in
possible inflation costs.
Justification
1. The MSBA requires that communities appropriate the full estimated cost of the
projects within 90 days of final SBA approval
2. The total cost after reimbursement,even if the final cost is$4,572,479,will be at
least$536,791 less than the cost of the projects if we had done them outside of the
Green Repair Program.
3. The final product will be much better than if we had merely replaced in-kind.
Reasons-Expanded
I. Project Management and Design Services—Being unfamiliar with the MSBA process I did not "!
anticipate the requirements associated with an independent firm for Project Management and the
multi-level submission process for design drawings. We actually anticipated,with the hiring of a
Facilities Manager, being able to do some of these functions on our own. This is not allowable
and,as can be seen from the attached cost analysis,added X265;225 to the total cost.
2. Full-Reimbursement--Normally a 10%contingency is included in the estimates of the cost of
projects like these. The MSBA does not allow,as a reimbursable expense,a contingency amount.
This required that we include possible additional costs as specific items within the construction
budget for each project. This added about 2%more to the total cost of the budget than if we had
done a straight 10% contingency,but it will ensure we maximize our reimbursement eligibility.
3. Engineering Testing—As part of the MSBA process the Architect has to submit schematic
drawings to the MSBA before final approval is granted. These also have to uiclude estimates
based on these schematic drawings. The architect hired engineers to do invasive testing(actually
cutting out samples of our roofs and then patching where they cut)to gather the necessary
information to provide these estimates. In addition,structural evaluations were performed to
determine compliance with the new State Building Code relative to snow loads. This is of
particular concern at flat roofs where improved insulation results in less heat loss that may have
melted snow drifts in the past. This makes the architect aware of conditions and needs that an
estimator would not be privy to. This resulted in a lower estimate for the window project,but
higher estimates for the two roof projects. The total variance due to this factor,as seen from the
attached cost analysis,makes tip the majority of the r#27 in that category. Examples of
conditions leading to higher costs include increased insulation requiring the build-up of walls to
allow the proper through-wall flashing and the lifting of mechanical equipment(with duct work
to accommodate the new height); and the presence of hazardous materials that will have to be
remediated.
4, Inflation Factor-It became clear the timetable did not allow for us to,complete these projects
during the summer of 2011. (Trying to do so also may have resulted in higher bids being
received because there was a glut of this type of work done this past summer.) We requested, and
were granted permission to complete the work during the summer of 2012. We are hopeful that
this will result in lower costs than if we had bid the work out for 2011, but we have to include an
escalation factor in our estimates.
Conclusion
Since the work on these projects will not be started until the summer of 2012 we would normally wait
until the May Town Meeting to request, if necessary,any additional appropriations,but the MSBA
requires that all necessary appropriations be approved within 90 days of the final approval of the projects.
North Andover would not be eligible for reimbursements for these projects unless we comply with this
requirement. For this reason,and due to the fact that our final estimates are$693,169 more than what has
already been appropriated,we are requesting the scheduling of a Special Town Meeting prior to
December 28,2011.
In the meantime,we will be going out to bid on these projects,and are hopeful that the bids come in
lower than the estimates. If this is the case,then we will lower the request for additional appropriations
accordingly. In addition, we are estimating a remaining balance in two school projects(Kittredge
Modulars and Kittredge Sprinklers)of$265,214 which could be used to offset the Town's portion of the
additional costs, Given the reimbursement rate of 47.42%,the additional costs for the Town if we had to
appropriate the full$693,169,would be$364,468. If the remaining balance of$265,214 was used to
offset this,then the additional cost to the Town would be$99,254.
There will also be savings in energy costs due to the tighter envelope created for each building due to
compliance with the stretch code. An"Energy Balance Evaluation"was modeled for each project. The
estimated energy consumption savings from these models is 21%for the window project and 3-5%for the
roof projects,resulting in an annual energy cost savings of$25,000 to$30,000. When combined with the
annual maintenance costs of$25,000 per year we have been spending on these items,they total an
estimated annual savings of$50,000 to$55,000 in operating costs.

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: James Purcell DATE: September 15, 2011
Interim Town Manager
FROM: Bruce Thibodeau
Director of Public Works
SUBJ: Disposition of Surplus Vehicle
I am recommending a trade-in on the existing Catch Basin Cleaning Truck#27. We have
procured a new Catch Basin Cleaner that was approved for purchase at the last Annual Town
Meeting. The new truck was purchased from Minuteman Trucks, Inc under the Greater Boston
Police Council Cooperative Procurement. As part of the process of purchasing the new truck, I
received a quote for the trade-in of the old truck from Minuteman Trucks which is attached.
Since the purchase of the new truck was done under a cooperative procurement process of which
the Town is a participant, the process was done under a Chapter 30B process and therefore meets
the requirement in the Town's `Policy/Procedure on the Disposition of Surplus Items' for trade-
ins. As a result, I am recommending the Town accept Minuteman Trucks' offer of$5,500 for the
trade-in.
