Nine Pearl Harbor survivors and over three hundred veterans and friends braved a cold, damp day to hear of the heroism and sacrifices of the American servicemen and women on that fateful day fifty-four years ago that brought the United States into World War II. The Cape's first monument of remembrance of "A date which will live in infamy", was the result of many months of work by the Yarmouth American Legion Post 197 and Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6293, the Town of Yarmouth, veterans and friends. The dedication ceremony included uniformed Army, Navy, Marine and Coast Guard retirees, Cape Cod Veteran Organizations, the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School Band, a Marine Corp firing squad, repre- sentatives from the Board of Selectmen and a Coast Guard search and rescue boat sail -by, as the annual memorial wreath was cast upon the waters of Bass River.

The Commit- tee is charged with providing oversight and advice on the town's financial matters. The Committee meets through- out the year, although more concentrated work, typically involving a two -per -week meeting schedule, is required as the proposed budget for the coming fiscal year is reviewed prior to the Annual Town Meeting. The Committee reviews in detail all monetary proposals to be brought forward at Town Meetings, and provides recommendations on each article for the benefit of the voters. Since the establishment of the limitation on total taxes ("Proposition 2 1/2") in the Massachusetts General Laws, it continues to be difficult to maintain the desired level of town services while staying within the Prop. 2 1 /2 limits on taxation. Unfunded or partially funded state mandates for local support of education, landfill closure, etc., apply con- stant pressure on other services—administration, police, fire, public works, etc.—expected of town government by Yarmouth taxpayers. The percentage of our budget which is subject to the Finance Committee's discretionary analy- sis has shrunk in recent years, and stands at approximately 30%. 5 The budgeting system installed by the Town Admin- istrator four years ago continues to hold budget requests of town departments to approximately one percent above the previous year (with the exception of negotiated wage and salary increases). Each year the effects of budgetary discipline resulting from the process become more appar- ent. The department managers and staff continue to main- tain the delivery of services to the taxpayer at essentially level funding. However, as the demands beyond the con- trol of town management increase, we fear that additional overrides and debt exclusions are in our future, despite our best efforts in the interests of Yarmouth taxpayers. Respectfully submitted: Roy J. Morton, Chairman Michael Castelone, Vice -Chairman William Principe, Clerk Betty -Jane Burkhardt Barrie Cliff Anne Seeley Donald Tuers Margaret Woods MISSION STATEMENT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN THE MISSION OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN IS TO PROVIDE LEADERSHIP TO CITIZENS AND EMPLOYEES IN ACHIEVING THE GOALS OF THE TOWN AND TO ENSURE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY IS PROVIDED TO RESIDENTS, BUSINESSES AND VISITORS TO THE TOWN OF YARMOUTH. Report of the Board of Selectmen The Board of Selectmen began 1995 with the addi- tion of Maureen Rischitelli who was elected during the Annual Town Election in April. She joins Selectmen Chris- topher Bowman, Herbert Schnitzer, John Howard and Charlotte Striebel. The Board quickly began its annual goal -setting pro- cess allowing the Town Administration and Yarmouth resi- dents to review the priorities of the Board of Selectmen. The following are some of the goals established and the progress that has been made on them thus far: 1. Economic Development and Revitalization Understanding the immediate need to expand Yarmouth's tax base to avoid overburdening current residential and commercial taxpayers, the Board of Selectmen has taken several steps to promote eco- nomic development and revitalization. The Board earmarked $10,000 in funds to complete a study on streamlining the Town's permit process and another $15,000 for a special project to upgrade targeted parcels on Route 28. The Board also agreed on four economic opportunity areas for Yarmouth which will be brought to both Town Meeting and State Officials for approval. The goal of these opportunity areas is to explore the option of tax incentives which will allow ust o expand Yarmouth's tax base and bring much needed jobs to our residents. The Board of Selectmen would like to thank the Yarmouth Area Chamber of Commerce for their co- operative efforts to promote business in our commu- nity. We look forward to building on this relationship as Yarmouth competes with surrounding Towns to attract capital. 2. Landfill Closure and Re -use Thanks to the efforts of Selectman, Herbert Schnitzer, Town Administrator Robert Lawton, and DPW Direc- tor George Allaire, Yarmouth finally reached an agree- ment with the state DEP regarding the closure and capping of our Landfill. The next step in the process is to review design plans for a dual recreational and golf facility which will maximize the use of the parcel and produce much needed revenue. Yarmouth vot- ers exempted the cost of this project from the con- straints of Proposition 21 /2 at the Annual Town Elec- tion in April. 7 3. Fiscal Responsibility Despite the ever-increasing demand for municipal services, Yarmouth once again managed to live within the constraints of Proposition 2 1/2 and maintain its Al Bond Rating. Much of the credit for these ac- complishments goes to Yarmouth Town Administra- tor Robert Lawton, Assistant Iown Administrator Joellen Daley, Director of Municipal Finance Sue Milne as well as the Yarmouth Finance Committee and all Department Heads who continue to maintain services with level -funded budgets that are not keep- ing pace with inflation. 4. Management -Employee relations The Board of Selectmen signed 3 -year contracts with five of the six employee bargaining units in Yarmouth this year and hope to settle with the remaining unit early in 1996. After an exhaustive search process led by our Town Administrator, the Board of Selectmen hired both a new Police Chief as well as a new Fire Chief. Peter Games of Wenham replaced retiring Police Chief Robert Chapman who served Yarmouth well for over two decades. Chief Games has hit the ground running implementing one of the more aggressive community -policing programs in the region. Chief Carnes has also joined with the Handicapped Affairs Committee to implement a volunteer group of citi- zens to enforce Yarmouth's Handicap parking by- laws. He has the full support of the Board of Select- men, his employees and the community. Dennis Brown of Ohio replaced retiring Fire Chief David Akin who led the Yarmouth Fire Depart- ment over the last decade with a high degree of pro- fessionalism. Chief Brown is currently evaluating the services provided by his department and how they can continue to effectively serve the people of Yarmouth. In addition to the hiring of Chiefs Carnes and Brown, the Board of Selectmen selected Karl von Hone to replace outgoing Natural Resources Supervisor Morris Johnson and Wally Lundstrom to replace out- going Treasurer Karen Hourihan. Both individuals bring a great deal of experience and energy to their respective positions. 5. Public Outreach In an effort to increase public awareness and encour- age participation, Yarmouth Selectmen meetings are now televised live each week on Government access Channel 19. The Board is deeply grateful to volun- teers Bibe Schnitzer, Bruce Millen, Kathleen Kemmeally, Jeff Peden, Dana Arnold, Sheryl Thibodeau, John Ustas, and Mary Alexander for the hundreds of hours they have volunteered to make this effort a success. The Board of Selectmen would like to thank the em- ployees of the Town of Yarmouth for their hard work, dedi- cation, and commitment they show to this community each' and every day. Looking towards 1996, the Boards's greatest chal- lenge continues to be the daunting financial pressures fac- ing Yarmouth including: the capping, closure and reuse of the landfill; unprecedented increases in Yarmouth's assess- ment to the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District; fi- nancing the continuation of a much-needed pavement management program; and the immediate need to increase' funding for public safety. Financial pressures and unan- ticipated competition will also force difficult decisions to be made regarding the Yarmouth -Dennis Septage Treatment Plant. It is becoming increasingly difficult to operate this Plant at the break-even point and the Board of Selectmen will be weighing various options in regard to this facility in 1996. We encourage all residents to join us in the decision- making process by watching our meetings each Tuesday at 7:00 P.M. on Channel 19, voicing your opinions, and ideally, filling out the talent bank form located in the back of this Town Report indicating your interest in joining a particular Town Committee. Respectfully submitted, Christopher Bowman, Chairman Board of Selectmen 8 Report of the Town Administrator 1995 was the year we reorganized the structure of town government and added a number of new department heads to our staff. We consolidated departments into seven groupings, Police, Fire, Department of Public Works, De- partment of Community Services, Municipal Inspections, Community Development and Municipal Finance. Several of these departments pre-existed the reorganization or were created by prior town meeting votes. The Commu- nity services and Community development placed Golf, Recreation, Natural Resources, Libraries, Council on ag- ing as one unit and Planning, Board of Appeals, Old Kings Highway, Conservation in another unit respectively. In this way like departments can work together as a unit, develop mission statements and the departments can be viewed both operationally and for budget purposes as one entity. The reorganization occurred in the spring of 1995 and I feel has worked well in providing a focus for like divisions and departments and ultimately better ser- vice for residents. During the early part of 1995 the Board of Selectmen and I reviewed over one hundred applicants for the posi- tions of Police and Fire Chief. The Board of Selectmen appointed Peter Carnes and Dennis Brown, who both rose to the top of the group of applicants, to become our police chief and fire chief. Both of these men have already exhib- ited initiative and innovative thinking which will take these two departments into the 21st Century. We have also hired a new treasurer, Mr. Walfred Lundstrom. Mr. Lundstrom come to us with a strong financial background and experi- ence in local government. A major concern this past year has been a lack of support from state government for our school system, the landfill closure and roadwork. In each of these areas, while the courts have ruled they are not state mandates as de- fined under Proposition 21/2, the State of Massachusetts, in the case of schools and landfill closures, are requiring towns throughout the Commonwealth to expend signifi- cant amounts of money to support these two activities. The State has provided some funding for education that is well below what it should provide in order to fund high quality education without reducing other existing services. The funding of our landfill closure has been partially offset by funds we have received by accepting construction debris from outside of the Town of Yarmouth. We will, however, have to borrow significant amounts of money to close our landfill to state standard. Fortunately, our plan to reuse the landfill by adding nine holes of golf and creating a recre- ational area will provide us with income to offset a portion of these closure costs. We have also been notified, that because of our need, we may be eligible for grants or low interest loans from the State to partially offset this cost. With regard to roadways, it is my feeling, that the gasoline tax, which was imposed upon residents of Massachusetts several years ago, is not being directed towards city and town roads but it is primarily funding the third harbor tun- nel and the depression. of the Central Artery in Boston. These may be worthwhile projects but local roadway sys- tems are suffering as a result of the tremendous cost of those projects. On.a regional basis Yarmouth has been working with our partners in Dennis and Barnstable on our septage plant and solid waste transfer station. With the hiring of a new firm to operate our septage plant, innovative ideas have been brought forward for consideration by the Board of Managers at the plant. New ideas regarding the disposal of sludge and an aggressive cost saving program by our contractor resulted in the lowering of our fee to users from eleven cents to eight cents per gallon and the possibility of developing a usable product from the sludge in future years. Rob Angell, our solid waste transfer station manager, and George Allaire, DPW Director, have presented several ideas, which would save money for the transfer station and in the long run stabilize the cost of trash removal in Yarmouth and Barnstable. We are considering changing equipment which will make the transfer station operation more efficient as well as the purchasing railroad cars which will eliminate an ever escalating maintenance fee charged by the railroad. It is also interesting that the Yarmouth - Barnstable transfer station has been the subject of visits by transfer station operators in Massachusetts, people from other parts of the United States and as far away as Japan to learn what Yarmouth and Barnstable are doing to'effec- tively and efficiently process solid waste. k I would also like to note that Yarmouth employees through the town safety committee, staffed by employees, did an excellent job this past year and saved town approxi- mately $50,000 in workers compensation costs of which $25,000 could be directly attributed to actions taken by the safety committee to make a safer workplace. A portion of the total savings was returned to employees through an incentive program which rewarded employees who had outstanding safety records over a three year period. Em- ployees also should be congratulated as the FY '95 audit of our financial condition was again outstanding. Our audi- tors have stated that the town is in a solid financial condi- tion for a town of our size and through conservative finan- cial management I feel we should be able to maintain our Al bond rating next year. The audit also made a number of suggestions, which are now being acted upon by vari- ous departments to improve our financial management. We anticipate the suggestions will be implemented early in 1996. I would like to specifically thank the staff in my office, Judy Daigneault and Pam Barnes who continue to provide 9 Joellen Daley and me with the support we need to be ef- fective while handling inquiries from residents and visitors in a timely, professional and courteous manner. This past summer, with the help of a part time intern student, they reorganized policies adopted by the Board of Selectmen, legal opinions we have received from town counsel and kept our office on track with the ever changing federal regu- lations regarding our housing and Urban Development Grants Funds. I would also like to give special recognition to Joellen Daley who, along with the safety committee, spearheaded the significant savings in workers compen- sation as well as other insurance related items which saved the town just under $100,000 on all insurance accounts during 1995. Mrs. Daley also was the lead person in a five town effort to revise job classification and personnel rules and regulations on Cape Cod. This has been a very time consuming effort spanning the course of over a year and we are hopeful that in 1996 we will be able to implement many of the items in that study. I look forward to 1996 as a year in which the town will be able to start to use our expanded computer capabilities. The libraries have already accessed the Internet and are working, through grants, to provide training to citizens in the Town of Yarmouth to use this new technology. Other departments in town are working to upgrade their computer systems and to,implement the GIS Mapping System so that the system can become user friendly and available to more departments. Also in 1996, we will continue to work on our landfill re -use project, improving operations at our septage plant and transfer station as well as attempt to operate as efficiently as possible within the financial constraints we all face. We are, however, reaching the point in Yarmouth where serious consideration needs to be given to expanding our tax base and expenditures for most of the departments within the town if we are to keep up with the ever in- creasing demands placed upon us by the citizens, the state and changing technology. Through the cooperation of the excellent employees_ we have in the Town of Yarmouth, the taxpayers, and State and Federal agen- cies, I am confident we can cope with all of these changes in the upcoming year.

Troy EMT Report of the Town Clerk and Board of Registrars Activity continues to increase in the town clerks of- fice. All of our statistical information, such as births, deaths and marriages showed an increase over 1994. Applica- tions for golf memberships reached nearly 1,500. The Town Election was held on April 10th, with Town Meeting on April 11th. In addition to the Annual Town Meet- ing, there were two Special Town Meetings, one on April 12th, and one on August 29th. In addition to the Town Election, there was an election recount held on April 29th. We anticipate 1996 to be an extremely busy year. There will be the Presidential Primary on March 5th, Town Election on April 8th, State Primary on September 17th, and the State Election on November 5th. In addition to the Annual Town Meeting, we anticipate several Special Town Meetings. Census forms were mailed December 29th, and now are being promptly returned. The census showed an in- crease in the Town's population but a decrease in voters. The count of the Annual Census was as follows: Prec. 1 Prec. 2 Prec. 3 Prec. 4 Prec. 5 Prec. 6 Total Voters 2,939 2,686 2,011 2,252 2,101 2,217 14,206 Non Voters 1,222 1,236 1,318 1,034 - 1,270 1,099 7,179 Residents 4,161 3,922 3,329 3,286 3,371 3,316 21,385 To repeat ourselves, we wish to remind you of the importance of listing all members of the household each and every year. The Town's population is important when we are involved in borrowing, receiving grants or federal and state aid. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all de- partment heads, elected officials, election workers, town employees, and especially my staff for their co-operation in making the year an especially successful one for our office. 19 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TOWN CLERK FOR THE YEAR 1995 Street Listing Books & Voting List 610.00 Raffle/Bazaar Permits 140.00 Miscellaneous Licenses and Permits 2,485.00 Business Certificates & Withdrawals 1,880.00 Certified Copies of Births, Marriages and 10,403.00 Deaths Marriage Intentions 2,310.00 Miscellaneous Town Clerk 3,544.51 Photo Copies 3,143.05 Uniform Commercial Code Filings & Releases2,855.00 Golf Memberships 525,380.00 Court Fines 2,975.00 Sub -Total 553,999.24 Issued 150 Female Dog Licenses at $10.00 1,500.00 Issued 419 Male Dog Licenses at $10.00 4,190.00 Issued 897 Spayed Female Dog Licenses at $4.00 3,548.00 Issued 450 Neutered Male Dog Licenses at $4.00 1,800.00 Issued 2 Kennel License & Multi Pet Permit at $50.00 100.00 Issued 37 Duplicate Dog Tags at $1.00 37.00 Issued 1 Transfer License at $1.00 1.00 Late Fees on Dog Licenses 2,270.00 Issued 102 Resident Citizen Fishing Licenses at $12.50 1,535.00 Issued 17 Resident Citizen Hunting Licenses at $12.50 242.50 Issued 40 Resident Citizen Sporting Licenses at $19.50 923.50 Issued 12 Resident Citizen Minor Fishing Licenses at $6.50 78.00 Issued 9 Non -Resident Citizen/Alien Fishing Licenses at $17.50 235.50 Issued 5 Non -Resident Citizen/Alien 7 -day Fishing License at $11.50 57.50 Issued 2 Non -Resident Citizen/Alien (Small Game) Hunting Licenses at $60.50 121.00 Issued 2 Resident Citizen Trapping 51.00 Issued 1 Resident Citizen Minor Trapping 20.50 Issued Duplicate Licenses at $2.00 0 Issued 32 Resident Citizen Sporting License (over 70) Free 0 Issued 3 Resident Citizen Hunting/Fishing Paraplegic Free 0 Issued 21 Resident Citizen Fishing Licenses (65-69) at $6.25 146.25 Issued 2 Resident Citizen Hunting Licenses (65-69) at $6.25 12.50 Issued 6 Resident Citizen Sporting Licenses (65- 69) at $9.75 68.75 Issued 14 Archery/Primitive Firearms Stamps at $5.10 71.50 Issued 18 Waterfowl Stamps at $5.00 90.00 Total Monies Collected $571,108.64 FEES Sporting Licenses Fees at $.50 48.00 Archery Stamp Fees at $0.10 1.40 Waterfowl Stamp Fees $0.25 4.50 Issued 225 Resident Wildland Conservation Stamp 1,080.00 Total Paid to Commonwealth of Massachusetts for Sporting 3,840.25 Total Fees turned over to the Town 146.05 Total Amount turned over to the Town $570,304.66 BIRTHS Births will no longer be published in the Town Report due to the passing of Acts & Resolves of Massachusetts 1991 which prohibits the sale or distribution of names of children under the age of seventeen.

Striebel Maureen Rischitelli 58 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Report of the Community Development Department On May 1, 1995 the staffs of the Planning Depart- ment, the Board of appeals, and the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District Committee were reformed as di- visions of a newly created Community Development De- partment. The staff of the Conservation Commission was separated from the Natural Resources Department and also joined the new department. The Community Devel- opment Department is headed by David Kellogg, Town Planner, who also continues in his capacity as the head of the Planning Division. The roles of the individual divisions remain unchanged and staffs will carry on their duties as before, but will now be under the direction of Mr. Kellogg. The following are the annual reports of the division staffs and the boards and committees served by staff: Report of the Planning Division The Yarmouth Planning Division continued its busy schedule in 1995. David Kellogg served as Town Planner and Director of the Community Development Department. Terry Sylvia served as Assistant Town Planner and Jeanne Bullock as Administrative Assistant. Planning staff continued to provide technical support to the Planning Board, Fair Housing Committee, Route 28 Task Force, and the Growth Policy Advisory Council. Staff also continued to assist other town departments, boards, and committees as well as the general public. The Assistant Town Planner continued to serve as a member of the Site Plan Review Team and as the town's Geographic Information Systems administrator. The continuing preparation of the Yarmouth Compre- hensive Plan took large blocks of staff time during 1995. In the 1994-1995 period approximately 85% of the plan's first phase was completed. Consultant services were used for three elements in the program. The Coastal Resources Element was pre- pared by consultant Martha Horn between July and No- vember. A very detailed draft was prepared and the Plan element completed. The Barnstable -Yarmouth Transpor- tation Study's consultant, McDonough -Scully, continued work on the transportation study for the three mid -cape towns of Barnstable, Yarmouth, and Dennis, completing Phase I and most of Phase II, covering all of the western Yarmouth area and advancing the study into the eastern 59 part of Yarmouth. This part of the Paan, due to its subject matter, is being done cooperatively. At the 1995 Annual Town Meeting, a status report on the Plan was presented; a similar document had been pre- sented at the start of the program in April 1993. In addi- tion, two industrial zone changes were presented that were part of the Land Use Plan. These were adopted. The staff continued to work upon two of the Plan ele- ments, namely the Economic Development Inventory and the Land Use/Growth Management Elements. The latter is a major portion of the program's first phase. In late November, representatives of the Yarmouth Local Planning Committee met with the Cape Cod Commission's Planning Committee to develop a presen- tation method for the Comprehensive Plan. As a result of this, it was decided to present groups of Plan elements to Town Meeting for their "endorsement" during both Phases I and II of the Plan and a summary document for Town Meeting "approval" at the end of the program. A "long sum- mary" for each of the elements would be prepared as com- pleted for the public's information. During the interim, a "Study Plan" would be presented to various town groups to gather their comments on an on-going advisory basis. Report of the Planning Board Over the past year the Planning Board has held 35 business and workshop meetings.' Officers of the board through August of 1995 were: Michael Strobl, Chairper- son; Gabrielle Ramsauer; Vice -Chairperson, and; Gloria Smith, Clerk. In September, Mr. Strobl was reappointed as Chairperson, Ms Ramsauer as Vice -Chairperson, and Ms Smith as Clerk. In 1995 Ms Patricia Kane joined the Planning Board, filling a vacancy made by Mr. Seymour Engel. The Planning Board held 35 business meetings and 23 workshops in 1995. Action was taken on 2 preliminary subdivision plans, 2 definitive subdivision plans, 15 Ap- proval Not Required (ANR) plans, 3 requests for lot re- leases, 5 subdivision rescissions/modifications,1 subdivi- sion name change and 1 road name change. The Board also held 1 Scenic Road Public Hearing. The Board sponsored 4 articles to revise the Zoning Bylaw at the Annual Town Meeting in April, 1994 and 2 articles for the Special Town Meeting in August 1994. The Planning Board continues to act as the Town's Local Planning Committee under the Cape Cod Commis- sion Act and remains active in the preparation of a local Comprehensive Plan. Members look forward to another active year in 1996. Respectfully submitted, Michael Strobl, Chairperson Gabrielle Ramsauer, Vice -Chairperson Gloria Smith,Clerk Patricia Kane Brad Goodwin John Shannon Lawrence Barber Former Member: Seymour Engel Report of the Route 28 Task Force The Route 28 Task Force completed another busy year in 1995, having met over 20 times. The Task Force also contributed by holding joint meetings with the Board of Selectmen, Growth Policy Advisory Committee, Plan- ning Board, Waterways Committee, and the Cape Cod Commission. Meetings with representatives from the Cape Cod Commission have led to an ongoing joint effort to- wards solving a number of problems besetting Route 28 and toward the possibility of obtaining funding. The Task Force has completed a new draft Design Review Bylaw. The proposed design review would be in- cluded in the existing site plan process. This article will be voted on at Annual Town Meeting in 1996. The Task Force will continue to work on new zoning and other proposals which should balance the redevelopment of Route 28. We have assisted with the designation of new Economic Op- portunity Areas, which will be eligible for incentives grants. The Task Force has developed and completed a substan- tial grant application for ISTEA transportation funding to- ward improvements to the "four corners" area of South Yarmouth. Improvements would include brick sidewalks, colonial lighting, removal of overhead power lines, and the purchase of an important parcel adjacent to Packets Land- ing for historic restoration, drainage improvements, and park development. The Task Force has commented on all applicable petitions to the Board of Appeals and has been instrumental in making improvements to many proposals. Unfortunately the Task Force's Chairman, Daniel Mullaney, and Vice -Chairman, Barbara Carey moved off Cape in 1995. Dick Martin, the groups first chairman has renewed his position as Chairman with the able assistance of Lillian Orr as Co -Chairman. , 60 The Task Force awarded Certificates of Merit to the following businesses on Route 28 for improvements to their properties in 1995: The Yarmouth House Restaurant The Mobil West Yarmouth Service Center The Factory Outlet Center As 1996 begins, the Task Force is adding new mem- bers and reorganizing to make a significant impact on the continued revitalization of Route 28. Respectfully submitted, Richard Martin, Chairman Lillian Orr, Vice -Chairman Paul Harrop Andrea McGee Lorens Persson Virginia Persson Bibe Schnitzer Daniel Mullaney, Resigned Barbara Carey, Resigned Report of the Fair Housing Committee INTRODUCTION The Yarmouth Fair Housing Committee (FHC) is re- sponsible for the oversight and coordination of initiatives and projects that will increase both the availability of, and the access to, affordable housing in Yarmouth. In pursuit of these objectives, it is important to note that in 1995, the Committee deliberately sought out cooperative working arrangements with two other like-minded organizations, the Yarmouth Housing Authority (YHA) and Habitat for Humanity. ACTIVITIES 1. The Committee applied for and received a share of Yarmouth's Federal Community Development - Block Grants, in the amount of $28,000. These funds will be used on a joint project with the Yarmouth Housing Authority to upgrade and make handicapped -acces- sible the elderly housing complex at Long Pond Vil- lage. Members of the FHC have been working on the details of the plan with the Executive Director of the YHA, Penny Tanner, and construction work on the project should start in the spring of 1996. There is also a possibility that additional grant funds will be available to the FHC for use in helping eligible homeowners to rehabilitate their existing properties . for affordable housing purposes. 2. The FHC worked closely with "Habitat for Humanity" during 1995. Bob Pike of the Committee is also a member of the Habitat Board, and FHC members, Betty Monroe and Pat Sinclair, served on their Fam- ily Selection Committee for a Yarmouth Habitat home. This house, which was constructed on Rose Road, South Yarmouth was turned over to its owners on November 4. In addition, the process of transferring town land on Old Town House Road to Habitat through the Yarmouth Housing Authority was nearly completed in December, and Habitat hopefully will start building its second Yarmouth house this com- ing spring. The house will have an affordability deed restriction in its purchase contract. 3. Three houses at German Hill were put on the mar- ket, and the FHC, working with the owners and the state's Executive Office of Community Development, helped to facilitate the sales, which included a lottery process. The houses will remain affordable, as man- dated under the LIP program. 4. Headwaters Drive: Joseph Dugas' original proposal for a LIP program condominium development was brought to the Committee in 1993. The Committee prevailed upon him to cut the number of units from 36 to 18, which he did. The revised proposal was approved by the Board of Selectmen, but turned down by the Board of Appeals, which wanted the number of units to be further cut to 6. Mr. Dugas appealed to the State Housing Appeals Board, which overruled the local Zoning Board of Appeals and granted him the 18 units requested, 5 of which would be afford- able. 5. A questionnaire concerning affordable housing needs was placed in the local newspapers. There were 16 responses, but of those a majority wanted a house with 3 or 4 bedrooms and considered that for them monthly mortgage payments between $500 to $600 would be "affordable." 6. In June, representatives of the Cape Cod Five Cents Savings Bank and the Sandwich Cooperative Bank spoke to the Committee regarding financing for af- fordable housing projects. Both were most coopera- tive and willing to bring to their banks boards any proposals the FHC might have should we decide in the future to take up again the idea of forming a non- profit corporation. This was a proposition that had been considered in 1994 but which was subsequently tabled by the Committee. 61 7. As mandated, a new revised charge for the Fair Hous- ing Committee was written by the Committee mem- bers and adopted by the Board of Selectmen in July. 8. Nancy Davison, Housing Assistance Corporation Pro- gram Director for Permanent Housing, met with the committee in August to discuss the Cape Cod Clear- inghouse program for first-time buyers. The FHC has tried to publicize this program, but advertising costs are a barrier. Notices have been put on Channel 19, and a packet of information subsequently sent the Committee by Ms Davison is in the Planning Office. 9. FHC voted to subscribe to the CHAPA (Citizens Hous- ing & Planning Association) a publication which de- scribes and updates information regarding sources for affordable housing funds, plus relevant housing legislative news. This publication is also available in the Planning Office for those who are interested. 10. In November three members of the Committee joined the Town Planner at a Regional Policy Plan meeting in Sandwich dealing with the affordable housing ele- ment of the RPP. 11. Several proposals by citizens were heard concern- ing possible development or rehabilitation plans; some of these were rejected as unfeasible; two, pos- sibly three, are still pending. 12. In the late fall, a letter was written by the Committee to the Executive Office of Community Development concerning the possibility of including property not now considered part of the affordable housing inven- tory to be counted as such toward the town's 10% quota. This would include Habitat houses plus other long-time affordable units not covered by the LIP pro- gram. 13. Setucket Pines: The residents were advised to form a homeowners' association. Both the Committee and the Town Administrator feel strongly that the town should support the homeowners as much as pos- sible. MEETING AND MEMBERSHIP The Fair Housing Committee met 24 times in 1995 and met with the Board of Selectmen twice. Elizabeth Monroe was reappointed by the Selectmen to the Advisory Council of the Barnstable County HOME Consortium. The HOME program administered by the Housing Assistance Corporation, distributes, county -wide, approximately $600,000 in Federal funds each year for first-time homeowner down payments and closing costs assistance; for homeowner re-hab; for rental re-hab, and for rental assistance. It also oversees the Soft Second mortgage program. No complaints of discrimination were brought before the FHC in 1995. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We wish to thank the following town officials and staff members for their support and assistance during 1995. David H. Kellogg, Town Planner Terry N. Sylvia, Assistant Town Planner Jeanne Bullock, Administrative Assistant Mary Ellen Hautanen, Committee Secretary Robert C. Lawton, Town Administrator MEMBERSHIP Elizabeth Monroe, Chairman Madeline Manchuk, Vice -Chairman Ann McCorkle, Historian Charles Bergstrom Robert Pike Patricia Sinclair Roger Tuttle William Wood Gwen Gilbert, YHA Representative Gabriele Ramsauer, 1995 Planning Board Represen- tative Gloria Smith, 1996 Planning Board Representative Wayne Price, Resigned Paula MacLelland, Resigned The FHC wishes to thank Paula MacLelland for her outstanding service to the cause of affordable housing. Paula served on the Committee for 8 years, with two terms as Chairman. In May, she stepped down as Chairman and dropped off the FHC at the end of October; her efforts will be greatly missed. The Committee deeply regrets that Wayne Price, who started out as our Chairman in 1995, was forced by illness to resign from the Committee. Following his resignation, Elizabeth Monroe was elected Chairman and Madeline Manchuk Vice -Chairman. New elections will take place in May 1996. The Committee continues to advertise on Chan- nel 19 and in local newspapers for prospective new mem- bers; so far we have one, and we would welcome more. 62 Report of the Growth Policy Advisory Council Development of the Local Comprehensive Plan con- tinues to be the top priority of the Growth Policy Advisory Council (GPAC); 1995 was a year in which much of the technical background for the Plan, such as compiling de- mographic data, was accomplished through the work of the Planning Division staff. There is still much work to be done, however. As stated in previous annual reports, it is important to develop this Plan with a high degree of public input and aware- ness. For 1996, efforts must be re -doubled along these lines to inform the people of Yarmouth of some of the policy choices facing the Town, and to maintain the momentum of the planning effort. The task is to take the broad policy statements of the Vision Statement and bring them into reality. Along this theme of implementation of the Vision Statement, GPAC was asked to examine the potential for revitalization of the Route 28 corridor, as several planning issues to be incorporated in the Local Comprehensive Plan can be found in that conspicuous part of town. These is- sues include transportation management, land use, open space, recreation, waterfront development, community character, historical identity, and economic development. GPAC has worked very cooperatively with a number of town agencies and groups in examining this issue, and by the time this annual report is printed, GPAC will have pre- sented its report to the Selectmen showing not only the potential that can be achieved for the corridor, but also possible funding sources. This can also serve as an early demonstration of what can be achieved through a fully developed Local Comprehensive Plan. 1996 will also see a revised charge of GPAC, as it has been more than ten years since the original charge has been reviewed. Among the issues in the charge to be reexamined are council membership, refined definition of "growth policy," and the integration of GPAC deliberations into matters facing the Town. Gratitude is extended to Gloria Smith, who completed her term as Planning Board representative to GPAC. Wel- come is extended to the new representative, John Shan- non, and to new member Myra Suchenicz. An invitation is extended to interested individuals to take part in the work of the Growth Policy Advisory Council. In 1995, GPAC held 13 regular meetings and four other meetings with other groups and committees. The support and assistance of the following staff members is greatly appreciated: -r. David H. Kellogg, Town Planner Terry Sylvia, Assistant Town Planner Pamela Barnes, Committee Secretary Jeanne Bullock, Administrative Assistant Harris Contos, Chairman Bibe Schnitzer Myra Suchenicz 2 . Bruce Millen John Shannon, Planning Board Representative Charlotte Streibel, Selectmen's Representative Report of the Old King's Highway Committee In 1995, the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District Committee for the Town of Yarmouth held 24 pub- lic hearings during which it acted on 218 Certificates of Appropriateness (denying 7), 58 Exemptions and 21 re- quests for minor changes to previously approved plans. The applications included approvals for 24 sheds, 15 signs and 35 new houses in addition to 8 new buildings (59 resi- dential units) at King's Way. 15 informational hearings were also helpful to persons processing applications. 31 requests were approved for repainting when changing exterior colors. This is the area which requires the most interpretation to owners within the historic district and painting violations are particularly difficult to monitor. Structures may be repainted existing colors without prior approval; however, when changing colors the owner must file and receive prior approval. In accordance with Chap. 470 of the Acts of 1973, which govern the local committee and regional commission, white is to only color which does not require the filing of an application. Appreciation is expressed to Alternate Deborah Gray for her research into 18th & 19th century exterior and inte- rior historic colors, samples of which are now available at the OKHC office During 1995 the committee reaffirmed its policy of not having a list of "approved colors" exempt from filing. It also agreed that the 7/12 roof pitch for sheds could be waived on the basis of location and visibility from a public way. Following through on the 50 reported violations cre- ated an extra work load for committee members, the sec- retary, and the Building Inspectors. In accordance with the regulations of the Act, violations must be backed up by photographs before being reported to the Building Depart - 63 ment, which is responsible for enforcing the Act. The OKHC secretary now assists the Building Inspector by sending out citation letters to owners of properties on which there are reported violations. The boundaries of Yarmouth's Old King's Highway Historic District are the Mid -Cape Highway north to the bay, border to border towns of Barnstable and Dennis. In an effort to inform owners as to exterior structural changes requiring OKHC approval, i.e., new construction, alter- ations, additions, demolitions, repainting changing the col- ors, 2,000 flyers were printed and, thanks to the Water Department's cooperation, copies included in a July '95 mailing. The flyer is also available at the Building Depart- ment and on the Information Table at Town Hall. During 1995, committee members and the staff sec- retary participated in the regional commissions workshops to revise and update the guidelines. Long overdue, the revised guidelines will be presented for approval by towns in a regional public hearing in 1996. 1995 changes in membership included the reappoint- ment of Deborah Gray as Alternate, the resignation of Mark Gonsalves after four years as Building Consultant and the appointment of his successor, Richard Gegenwarth. The committee expresses its appreciation to "out -going" co - chairpersons Betsy Antonellis and David Moeller and to its staff secretary, Connie Lodody. Respectfully submitted, Elizabeth Antonellis, Member & Co-chair David Moeller, Member & Co-chair Gordon Clark, Member Robert Miller, Member Richard Gegenwarth, Building Consultant Deborah Gray, Alternate Report of the Historical Commission The Yarmouth Historical Commission is established by Chapter 40, Section 8.D of the Massachusetts General Laws for the purpose of preservation, protection, and de- velopment of the historical or archeological assets of the town. It may also recommend to the Massachusetts His- torical Commission places to be certified as historical or archeological landmarks. Members' terms are 4 years; Associates are appointed annually to provide specific ex- pertise. In 1995, the Commission held 11 meetings, one of which was a site visit to Great Island to determine, in ac- cordance with Town Code, Chapter 92, Historic Properties (Demolition Delay Ordinance), whether the property to be demolished was a "significant building." Although the 1746 Corey House was reported to be the oldest house on Great Island, it was, unfortunately, not in salvageable condition. Alterations made over the years had eliminated most of its historic structural features. In 1995, the Commission signed off on a total of 3 demolitions and 1 partial demolition. Highlights of the year included: BAXTER GRIST MILL, WEST YARMOUTH: The Parks Department budget again provided for a part-time seasonal attendant (Herb Stone, a West Yarmouth resident), en- abling the mill to be open to the public 1-5 p.m. on week- ends - Memorial & Columbus Day holidays and mid-June through Labor Day. The Commission continues to pursue the possibility of securing permission to grind corn for dem- onstration purposes at this 1710 mill. TAYLOR -BRAY FARM,. YARMOUTH PORT: Resident Managers Ellen & Tom Sheret reported an increase in visi- tors, including field trips sponsored by local school and scouting groups and the Museum of Natural History. Over 900 visitors toured the farm and trails during 1995. In ad- dition to maintenance work on the farmhouse and barn, new fencing was installed, land cleared and a trail to the marsh opened, a garden and a cornfield planted. The farm population increased with the birth of 2 goats and 1 sheep! The Sheep also participated in an embryology science project for the 5th graders of the John Simpkins School. A sheep herding demonstration took place during Cape Heri- tage Week and Member Polly Hardy and staff secretary Connie Lobody designed and printed a tri -fold brochure for visitors, which includes a map and history of the farm. The Bray Farm Oversight Subcommittee and the Com- mission extends its appreciation to the. Sheret family for their continued efforts in the maintenance and preserva- tion of this circa 1640 National Register site. JUDAH BAKER WINDMILL, SOUTH YARMOUTH: Un- der the supervision of the Parks Department and Member John Richards, efforts continue to preserve, protect, and restore this 1791 windmill, which is within the South Yarmouth/Bass River Historic District. The windmill was included in the December tour sponsored by the "Friends of DY Strings."

Joly for the rehabilitation of a late 19th circa struc- ture to a new use at 194 Route 6A, Yarmouth Port. 64 EDUCATIONAL PROJECTS: In an effort to involve Yarmouth elementary school children in the history of their town, one of the highlights of 1995 was the Commission's contest to "Name the Baxter Mill Swan." Under the lead- ership of Member Beth Hodson, over 500 entries of names and art work were submitted by grades K-4 from the John Simpkins School and the Marguerite E. Small School. The winning name "Baxter' was submitted by 8 children, each one of whom received a prize. Thanks to Channel 19, a video of the winners was taped and aired, and a copy given to the Commission for viewing at the mill. NATIVE AMERICAN RESEARCH: With the assistance of Associate Mark Horvath, the Commission endorsed a project to research Yarmouth's Native American history. The project will attempt to identify, document, and record Native American sites and artifacts in particular areas of the town.

Report of the Conservation Commission During the 1995 calendar year, the Yarmouth Con- servation Commission conducted 97 Public Hearings pur- suant to the Mass. Wetland Protection Act and the Town of Yarmouth Wetland By -Law. 1995 was a productive year. The Commission, with the help of the Natural Resources Department, was able to enhance some of the entrances to our conservation ar- eas. Flowering fruit trees, various shrubs, and hundreds of bulbs were planted. Particular attention was given to the Raymond J. Syrjala Conservation Area in West Yarmouth. The Commission looks forward to continuing this effort during 1996. The Commission, through their administrator, is play- ing the lead role in the development of the Town's "Open Space and Recreation Plan." The plan should be finished by June of 1996 and will enable the town to be eligible for a variety of grants available from the state. The Planning, Recreation, and Park Divisions are also participating ac- tively. In addition, the Commission will be participating in the continuing development of the Town's Comprehensive Plan. The Commission reviewed many storm drainage projects as a result of petitions from the Department of Public Works. The Long Pond Herring Run and Long Pond itself were beneficiaries of many projects that eliminated direct discharge of harmful stormwater. The shellfish ar- eas of Swan Pond, Parker's River, and Lewis Pond will all benefit from less bacteria and excessive nutrients. The Commission's administrator is chairman of the Stormwater Committee. As in past years, the Commission wishes to thank the Department of Natural Resources and the Engineer- ing Division for their help throughout 1995. We depend on their expertise. Regretfully, James H. Quirk, our chairman for many years, was not re -appointed after his last term. The Com- mission wishes to express their heartfelt thanks for Jim's vision throughout the years. Jim will always be a "corner- stone" in the eyes of the Commission and the public he served.

The new de- partment commenced its work in December of 1995 when the new Natural Resources Director came on board. Pres- ently, the department is defining its mission and hopes to publish a brochure outlining all services offered and other related information by the Summer of 1996. We would like to welcome Karl von Hone as our new Natural Resources Supervisor and look forward to work- ing with him on our group projects. We would also like to thank Mo Johnson for his hard work and dedication to the Town of Yarmouth and his contribution as the previous Di- rector of Natural Resources to this newly formed group. The members of the Department of Community Ser- vices look forward to continuing to provide the services that make Yarmouth such a desirable place to live, work and vacation. Report of the Council on Aging The year 1995 was another productive year involv- ing the seniors in the Town of Yarmouth. New support groups initiated this year include the Chronically III and Breast Cancer. Both groups meet twice a month. A new low cost pedi-cure service was made avail- able and an amazing number of seniors immediately be- came involved in this program. Along with the many programs and services offered, which include health, educational and recreational, cur- rent movies are offered twice a month on a new 32 inch video screen. Two new classes are offered once again. These in- clude Yoga and Graphology which seemed to have stimu- lated a great interest to the seniors. The Council on Aging is extremely fortunate to have been awarded $25,242 in Formula Grant funds to help defray expenses and to make necessary improvements in the building. An Incentive Grant was also awarded in the amount of $3,000 to seek out the seniors in the town that 67 are not registered with the Council and apprise them of their benefits and services that are available" to them through the Council on Aging. This past year there were 350 seniors that registered with the Council office. They were then placed on our mail- ing list and received our Newsletter each month informing them of the services and programs offered to them. This year welcomes 2 new board members that have been appointed by the Selectmen. Catherine Crowley of Yarmouth Port and James Brown of West Yarmouth will be attending our monthly board meetings and will be offer- ing their input in governing the duties of the Council on Aging.

Brown John Faldetta Leila J. Kiely Barbara A. Wilson Catherine Crowley Report of the Yarmouth Golf Commission The Yarmouth Golf Commission is happy to report that we had another successful year in FY95. Financial Results Comparison: Total Revenue Total Expenditures Budget Surplus Debt & Interest Surplus to Town FY94 $1,894,080 837,154 1,056,935 579,609 477,326 FY95 1,979,730 852,383 1,127, 347 553,142 574,205 Excellent golf weather attributed increased green fee rounds and golf cart rounds over FY94 to all time highs. The Revenue increase was also assisted by the $2 in- crease in green fees which went towards our new offset receipt account. The golf membership (Town Residents and Taxpay- ers) experienced a 4% increase over 1994 (1395 vs. 1451). This increase also contributed to the increased revenue. The Golf Commission feels optimum playing condi- tions at both golf courses are essential if we are to con- tinue to realize the financial benefits. New equipment, ap- propriate materials, adequate irrigation and additional la- bor are necessities to accomplish this. The offset receipt account is the avenue the golf com- mission has taken to fund the needed items to maintain the playability of our town's two golf courses. We will also use this account to further implement our 5 -year plan. Superintendent Ed Nash and his crews have done a great job maintaining our golf courses considering the lim- ited resources he has to work with. The architect firm of Ault, Clark & Assoc. were hired to draw up plans for a 9 hole golf course on the landfill. Committee members working with the architect are Donald Deay, Ed Nash, Wafter Hewins, Anne Grazewski and Chair- man Paul Robinson. We are looking for an opening in the year 2000 if town meeting approves the project. The Golf Commission continues to support Youth Golf Programs and tournaments in the Town of Yarmouth. Un- der the capable direction of Ron Hewins and his staff, many youngsters are given a professional introduction to the game of golf. As in the past, a highlight of the program was an exhibition given by Jim Hallet, a former member of the PGA Tour and D -Y graduate. Two tournaments are held yearly - The Cape Cod Schoolboy Championship (Walter Hewins Trophy) is held at Bayberry Hills and the Cape Cod Chapter of the NEPGA ran a tournament at both courses which attracted 160 kids. In October 1994, Don Deay was hired to serve as Golf Director. He has been a wonderful addition to our staff and has brought some new ideas to the operation. Thanks to Walter Hewins and Ed Nash for their con- tributions while the golf director's position was vacant. We are looking forward to another profitable and suc- cessful season in fiscal year 1996.

The Selectmen -appointed board met for the first time in March and deserves high marks for its achievements: the creation of a set of Library Board by-laws, goals and objectives for improvement of library service, and a proposed budget which would help the Yarmouth Library System to take its place among other Cape libraries in the provision of quality library service. Best of all, there is unanimity among library board mem- bers in terms of the course they have charted for the fu- ture of library service in Yarmouth. In August, the ad hoc Library Review Commission presented its official report to the Selectmen. The Com- mission found Yarmouth Libraries wanting in hours of ser- vice, breadth and number of library books and other re- sources and equipment, and professional staff to deliver services appropriate for contemporary life. The report set forth recommendations for improvement that were em- braced by the new Town Library Board and incorporated into goals and objectives and a proposed budget for the development of Yarmouth Town Libraries. At the same time, the South Yarmouth Library Board voted unanimously to present its building and contents to the Town for its con- tinued use as a library. We welcomed our first-ever children's services spe- cialist in January as a result of a grant received from the Massachusetts Department of Education's Community Partnership Program through the Dennis -Yarmouth Early Childhood Program. Children's programming became a reality system -wide. Library attendance rose dramatically at the South Yarmouth Library, as evidenced by the steep incline of circulation figures, increasing by 20%. We were fortunate enough to have this grant, totalling $10,500, re- newed for another year. Other competitive grants received include $8,000 for science reference kits, $2,700 for con- sultant support, $6,000 to hire high school students as computer tutors, and Internet support from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. Grants received total more than $30,000. The overall circulation of Yarmouth Libraries has in- creased significantly over the past year as a result of staff focus on the delivery of service to Yarmouth citizens. We look to the coming year anticipating the expansion of li- brary services according to the Library Board's Long Range Plan, currently under development. Respectfully submitted, Marcia Shannon Director of Libraries 69 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE YARMOUTH PORT LIBRARY FOR FY 1995 The Yarmouth Port Library had a generally satisfac- tory year in FY 1994-95, finishing without any fiscal disas- ters and within its budget of $70,880. The $70,880 total of course continues to be shored up by expenditures of sev- eral tens of thousands by the Yarmouth Library Associa- tion, both on materials (book, periodicals, videos, etc.) and on maintenance and operation of the building, which it owns. The Yarmouth Port Library brought its total collec- tions to 18,667 volumes and other items. This is a June '95 figure, as derived from the CLAMS automated statisti- cal system; this collection total is still somewhat low, and the collections need considerable strengthening, especially in circulating non-fiction books (less than 40% of the col- lection, where 60% would meet a better library standard). A table of key statistics follows at foot. The reference collection, essential to quick answer- ing of the thousand urgent questions which come from users, is also very weak; the library did not possess an adult encyclopedia when the librarian writing this report put on the harness of the work in October 1995. The state of reference collection of course reflects directly the very thin past performance of reference work in the library. It is likely that the progress of the library over the next several years in reference work will be stronger and will make meaningless the data counts of reference work for previ- ous years. On the other hand, the fiction collections, while weeded vigorously a few years ago, are in generally good condition, although not sufficiently consistent in holdings of older standard works, even ones from respected writ- ers. During the summer and fall of 1995, the flow of cur- rent fiction and popular non-fiction also slowed markedly because of the need to replace several staff. This prob- lem, like the weakness of the Reference collection, is one which of course cannot be helped by the CLAMS system, which helps extensively almost everywhere else. Some stafftime reinforcements were made available from the small central staff of the Yarmouth system during this pe- riod of difficulty, to good effect. Its immediate staff rebuilt, the Yarmouth Port Library has now returned to a normal pattern of ordering and processing, within the constraints of its budget. Circulation remained strong throughout this period, and from October 1995 the library is offering fully professional reference service. The library continues to meet an open schedule of 25 hours a week, with Saturday hours and one evening (Wednesday), but no opening on Monday or Sunday. The latter day is of course a highly popular day among library users in many towns. In the judgement of the librarian, the collection of the library is as yet too weak to justify now the staffing and operations costs of longer hours; and systematic attention is being given to all the means of public information and service shaping to help Yarmouth Port users see the avail- ability of the two other Yarmouth Libraries. The old library facility in Yarmouth Port, with its 1871 central hall and many later additions (six or seven total, some of them quite minimal in structure), on a curve and a difficult hill, continues to be a problem for good library ser- vices. The new librarian is working vigorously and directly with the officers of the Association to make the facility im- provements which are within reach, and the Association has been raising.funds vigorously to address problems of disability access and related matters. During 1995 the Association at its own cost made major revisions of the septic system and parking facilities, improving the driveway system and doubling the capacity of the parking lot. Major alterations to entries and internal layouts are pending in the near future, when apparent con- flicts between the historical district and disability authori- ties can be resolved in an economic and legal design which also makes good library sense.

"Murder at the Library", an evening of dinner the- ater, was staged in February and featured many local stars: Bob Lawton, Michael McCaffrey, Bev Capers, Priscilla Gre- gory, Walter Curley, and Yarmouth Library Director, Marcia Shannon, who "gave her life" for the cause. It was a most entertaining evening and so well received, it was reprised in July. The event raised $2,500 with which we purchased a CD-ROM workstation for the children's room. Another theatrical performance presented by the li- brary trustees starred Mary Fickett, star of Broadway and television, who gave two one -woman performances as Eleanor Roosevelt. Each performance was followed by a delicious high tea. During the summer, the three Yarmouth libraries put on an old-fashioned ice cream social at the West Yarmouth Library, complete with a Bavarian band, ice cream sundaes and balloons for the children.Our trust- ees worked very hard for the library in 1995 and we are very grateful to them, and all the other volunteers and busi- nesses who contributed to the success of all these fundraising events. The library staff has been busy, too...all the new tech- nology we have acquired has required learning new skills as we begin to navigate the information highway. During the fall, our staff has been augmented by three "computer tutors", high school students who were selected for their computer knowledge and their ability to pass that knowl- edge on to our patrons — young and old. We have been delighted to see so many people taking advantage of this service. The funds to pay our computer tutors were ob- tained by Mrs. Shannon through a grant and another grant — obtained by Mrs. Shannon through the regional school system — has provided us with a children's librarian. The position was first filled by Noelle Young and later, when Noelle left the Cape, by Kristen Boyd. Both Noelle and Kristen have been responsible for many improvements in children's services at the library and a 23% increase in the circulation of children's materials. There were many pro- grams and workshops presented over the year for the chil- dren, including some scavenger hunts in which students from the Mattacheese School searched for answers to questions in the books and computer resources available at the library. In addition to many CD-ROMS for both chil- dren and adults acquired during the year, the Yarmouth libraries also subscribe to Newsbank, through which we receive monthly updated CD-ROMS giving full text articles from many newspapers and magazines. This has proven to be a very useful resource for everyone. In December, we gained access to the Internet; and we look forward to providing yet another valuable and up-to-date resource for the citizens of Yarmouth.

Currently totaling $5,100, their contributions are buying the library a second computer system for public use, and Internet account, and lighting which enables customers to read more easily in circula- tion, stack and periodical areas. Additional fund-raising events spearheaded by the trustees included the Annual Book and Yard Sale, the Christmas Bazaar, and the first Ice Cream Social. The latter, a joint effort by the Associa- tions of all three Yarmouth libraries, occurred at the West Yarmouth Library on a cool August evening. While a Ba- varian band oompahed and young tumblers cartwheeled across the lawn, ice cream lovers sprawled on the grass 'or in chairs under the tent while others waited in line to collect scoops and toppings, then nipped inside to warm up and tour the facilities. A Norman Rockwell scene in -1990's costume, the social proved a top-notch public rela- tions effort. Kudos to all who worked to effect these events and to manage the money thus raised — notable trustees Richard Zitola, Ann Baker, Pete Briggs, Edith Cavander, Anita Choi, Arlene Cole, Phyllis Cornforth, Carol Forest, .Ed Hanlon, Josephine Henderson, Gail Laflash, Olive ,March, Peg Whitney, Marilyn Peterson, Jack Silver, and Frank Daley, and to Friends of the Library, among them Mary Kimball, Louise Knight, and Louise Robsham. 71 The Yarmouth Maintenance Department directed the removal of the underground oil tank and the rewiring of faulty interior lights and installed an alarm on the rear exit. The Association purchased an answering machine which reports hours of service to those who telephone when the building is closed. The Friends bought the printer used with the computers and a paperback rack for the children's area. Public programs featuring poet Donald Baker, who performed Shakespeare's sonnets and poems by Emily Dickinson, elicited generous audience donations, which enabled the library to purchase several of the BBC's pro- ductions of Shakespeare's plays on video. Additional events hosted Robert Pease reading from his books and David Simser lecturing on whale strandings and the mon- arch butterfly. Two popular series, Bernice Todres' on health and Ted Paul's on astronomy, enlightened many. We thank Cape Groceries and West Yarmouth 7 - Eleven who continue to give THE BOSTON GLOBE and THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, as well as the library pa- trons who donate periodicals which enrich the collection at no additional cost to the taxpayers. A special thank -you goes this year to the Mid Cape Lions Club, which recently presented a check for the purchase of large -print books. Gratitude is extended to the Yarmouth Garden Clubfor seasonal arrangements and to Josephine Henderson for flowers from her home nursery. The Friends of the Library are recognized and thanked for the holiday teas and cof- fee hours which warm the atmosphere for all. Local artist Betty Clark designed and produced library notecards. Af- ter slight modification her design was used on library tote bags and on the Annual Appeal letters. The committed volunteers and staff members Susan Parker and Janet DeFulvio served more than 60,000 people in 1995. The younger users in that number welcomed the children's services given by Virginia Haskell, Noelle Young and Kristen Boyd. Respectfully submitted, Carol Devir Head Librarian Report of the Natural ResourcesDepartment A new year also brought a new face at the Depart- ment of Natural Resources. Karl vonHone, who left the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries and 6 years previously as a Natural Resource Officer in Dennis to be- come the new Director of Natural Resources. Karl vonHone brings to the department knowledge, experience and the desire to bring the department into the 21st century. Karl has replaced Morris I. Johnson, Jr., who retired after 30 years of dedicated service. Mo brought this department a long way from a one-man operation out of his garage to the dedicated department we have today. Mo will be missed greatly by his fellow employees and throughout the town. Thanks Mo, from all of us. For the year 1995, the Department of Natural Re- sources checked a total of 318 sportsmen while on patrol. Of that number, 130 were hunting, 188 were fishing on fresh water ponds and the saltwater shoreline throughout the Town of Yarmouth. There were 21 violation notices written for hunting and fishing infractions. In addition there were 3 unrelated violations issued by Natural Resource Officers in 1995. In the area of shellfish, our Department conducted 62 shellfish investigations and wrote 19 violation notices. In 1995, the Department of Natural Resources re- sponded to a total of 1,110 calls. Once again an extensive amount of time has been spent on maintenance and upgrade to the Conservation Areas and Anadromous fish runs. We should keep in mind that although rabies has not hit Cape Cod and the Islands, it has spread throughout Eastern Massachusetts, and we should prepare for it. Pre- cautions we can take would be to vaccinate cats and dogs for rabies. Do not approach or handle wild animals. Do not feed wild animals. Secure trash containers and garbage. Cap chimneys and seal openings to attics. We should also remember, trapping and moving wild animals is against the law. We do not want to relocate a possibly diseased animal. The department has acquired permits to reestablish the artificial fish reef (tire reef) which had been established in 1978. The reef is approximately 2 miles off the South Shore of Yarmouth in Nantucket Sound. The permits will allow us to sink 1000 tire units. Each tire unit consists of 3 cement filled tires bound together. This tire reef will pro - 72 vide habitat to fish and crustacians and will benefit fisher men as a whole. Many thanks to the Cape Cod Salties and the JTEC students for their help in constructing 310 tire units for the Artificial Fish reef in Nantucket Sound.

Bass River between the Rte. 6 and Rte. 28 Bridges were open from December 1st to Decem- ber 31st of this year. This past Spring saw a continued harvest of Bay Scallops, but very few were harvested in the fall. 125,000 6mm quahog seed were planted in Pine Island Cove under a County Grant for Commercial Shell - 318 fish Bed Enhancement. Windmill Beach in Bass River was 130 planted with 16 bushels of contaminated soft shell clams 188 in an effort to reestablish the area by providing parent stock. 24 10 11 3 . Water quality testing of shellfish growing areas con- tinued this year with triennial sanitary survey reviews of Bass River South SC:33, Lewis Pond SC:30, and Chase Garden Creek CCB:27, as well as monthly testing of ar- eas classified as approved or seasonally approved status: Open, in cooperation with the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF). Additional testing was carried out by this department and volunteers from the Environmental Problem Solvers Group at Mattacheese Middle School. Slowly, we are seeing improvements to our marine water quality, thanks to the cooperative efforts of the Engineer- ing Dept., Health Dept., Conservation Dept., Natural Re- sources Dept., and concerned citizens.

ANIIMAL CONTROL REPORT FOR 1995 Rabies crossed the Massachusetts border in Sep- tember of 1992. Since that time 4,536 cats from through- out the Commonwealth have been euthanized and sub- mitted to the state laboratory to be tested for rabies. Had these cats been vaccinated and tagged as required by law their lives could have been saved. The Animal Control Department has no record of cat collars causing injury or death. We have however, taken thousands of reports on lost and found cats, many that were never reunited with their owner simply because the owner failed to collar and tag their pet. In 1995, our de- partment responded to 64 calls of cats that had been hit by vehicles. Sadly, only one of these cats wore identifica- tion. PLEASE COLLAR AND TAG YOUR CAT AND LI- CENSE YOUR DOG. IT CAN SAVE THEIR LIFE. An information board pertaining to rabies prevention specifically targeting cats was displayed at Town Hall, re- inforcing the need for cats to be vaccinated and tagged. The Pet Food Donation Box located at the A&P and established and distributed through the Animal Control Department has enjoyed continued success and has helped many families and their pets in need of assistance. Thanks to all that contributed throughout 1995. The Animal Control Department again organized a Christmas food drive at Town Hall with proceeds donated to the Cape Cod Council of Churches Food Pantry, rein- forcing our belief that kindness to animals and kindness to your neighbor go hand in hand. The 8th Annual Blessing of the Animals, held each year at the West Yarmouth Congregational Church, was attended by the largest crowd to date. Hundreds of pet owners turned out for this special event. Much thanks to our sponsors, Salty's Diner and Kaleidoscope Imprints for their support. This years Blessing of the Animals was dedi- cated to our local animal shelters, the Animal Rescue League of Brewster and the Massachusetts S.P.C.A. lo- cated in Centerville. These kind souls are truly the "Guard- ian Angels" of the unwanted. Congratulations to Assistant Aniimal Control Officer, Richard Nelson for completing the Animal Control Certifi- cation course at the Massachusetts Criminal Justice Train- ing Council in Plymouth. 74 1995 ended on a very happy note. Gracie, a dog a local citizen was kind enough to take in off a busy street before she was injured, gave birth to a litter of puppies at the Animal Inn, where the Town of Yarmouth shelters their dogs. Our most heartfelt thanks to the Animal Inn and staff, who lavished love and attention on Gracie and her pups and made them feel at home. Gracie, as well as her 7 puppies, were brought to the MSPCA in Centerville where they all found loving and exceptionally special homes. Special thanks to the International Fund for Animals for their incredibly generous donation of $500.00 to be used towards the board fees and care for Gracie and her pup- pies. Thanks also to ALL the animal lovers from on and off Cape that mailed in donations. Your kindness was greatly appreciated and made a difference! Our local media was a tremendous help. A million thanks to writers, John Basile of the Register; Mark Merchant of the Cape Cod Times and Chris Barnes of PIXY 103 radio. The Animal Control staff would like to thank our retir- ing supervisor, Morris I. Johnson, who has always sup- ported the Animal Control Departments programs and dreams. We wish him well. We look forward to serving you and hope that 1996 will be a safe year for you and your pets!

HARBORMASTER REPORT FOR 1995 We have seen an increase in mooring and slip rent- als since Hurricane Bob. It was a pleasure to have the boaters return, which assists in revenues for the Town of Yarmouth. This was the first year in many that all slips were leased in every town owned marina. Patrol boats J48 & J49 spent much of the 1995 boat- ing season dealing with the increase in boating traffic and jet skis in all water bodies throughout the boating season. We almost doubled our numbers for beach assistance calls and also had a large increase in boats stopped, with a significant increase in safety checks. We are looking forward to another good season in 1996 and welcome all boaters to return.

This facility, owned and maintained by the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, has a full-sized gymnasium, similar in size and design to the gym at the Mattacheese Middle School. The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, continues to work cooperatively with our Recreation Department. Without the School District's cooperation, none of our in- door programs would be possible, as the Town does not own any indoor Recreational Facilities. Currently, our indoor winter programs make full utili- zation of all available space at the Dennis -Yarmouth High School, the Mattacheese Middle School, the John Simpkins School, as well as the New Station Avenue Elementary School. Once again, we wish to thank the Administration and staff of the DY School District for their continual coop- eration and support. Because of the dramatic expansion and growth of our Department (as discussed in the 1994-95 Annual Town Report), we have continued to focus on "quality control" of existing programs rather than the expansion of our pro- gram offerings. The hiring of part-time program leaders to supervise the operational details of certain programs, has added stability where it was needed and has resulted in smoother and more effective management. This has en- abled our Director to concentrate on the broader Recre- ational picture. This includes planning for the projected Department needs, in areas such as equipment, program structuring and restructuring, coaches training, and facility acquisition and development. This past year, a number of significant things occurred in the area of facility development. The installation of a modernized, handicapped accessible playground at the John Simpkins School was realized through the availabil- ity of a Hud Grant. Older, obsolete, unsafe playground equipment was replaced. The installation of the new Play- ground Equipment was made possible by the collective efforts of many community volunteers who donated their time, equipment and materials to this project. The Town, School District, parents and especially the children are deeply indebted to these workers for their generosity. Facility improvements also include the re -designing and construction at Flax Pond which has allowed for Handi- cap Accessibility to the waterfront. This new walk -way should provide the general public as well as our Flax Pond Adventure Program participants complete access to the water and the beach front. 76 Irrigation was finally installed at the multi-purpose fields at the Sandy Pond Recreational Facility. These fields had been previously closed by the Recreation Department due to perceived unsafe conditions. Irrigation was needed to keep these fields in a healthy and safe condition. Through the cooperation of the Department of Public Works (Parks Department), the Town Administration, the Recre- ation Department and the Community Youth Soccer Pro- gram this very important work was accomplished. Through the joint efforts of the Recreation Depart- ment and Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, irri- gation will also be installed at the fields behind the John Simpkins School where two full-sized Soccer Fields will be designed and installed. With more than 500 children participating in this sport in the fall, as well as a Spring Travel Program, additional Soccer fields are needed. The use of School District and Municipal fields is intensive. The fields require a great deal of care, maintenance, and re- pair. Ideally, we would like to have a sufficient number of fields to rotate them, so that some fields are at rest while others are in use. In the long run, we believe this would be cost effective from a maintenance standpoint. Facility acquisition and development is critical in terms of our ability to meet the needs of our Community for qual- ity, leisure -time opportunities for all age groups. Enroll- ments in established programs have grown geometrically over the last several years. We envision significant in- creases in the future as well, and are looking forward to- wards meeting these demands. The input of the Recre- ation Department into the utilization of the landfill, after closure, should provide an important opportunity for both the Town Administration, our elected officials, and our citi- zens to accommodate the projected facility requirements of the Recreation Department. We view this as a great opportunity to combine a revenue generating enterprise (golf course) with facility and financial support for our de- partment - one dedicated to providing quality, leisure -time programs and activities to as many of our citizens as pos- sible, as an enhancement to the quality of their lives. We have always operated on a modest budget. The vast majority of the funds used to support our programs are generated through user fees. Unfortunately, many fami- lies cannot afford to pay these fees and we do what we can to include them, either by reducing the fee or by waiv- ing it. However, we must pursue our goal of being as "all inclusive" as possible with a look at the overall economic viability of the particular program. It is a difficult and some- times impossible balance to achieve. In addition to the program directors who are hired by the Recreation Department, there are many non -paid vol- unteer program administrators who do an excellent job running town -sponsored programs. These volunteers make an essential and valuable contribution to our youth and adult populations. Without them, many of our programs would simply not exist. A highlight of some of the programs that we offer are as follows: • Flax Pond Summer Adventure Programs - Full day and Half day, which are enjoyed by more than 500 children. This is a self-supporting program which is financed through user fees. It includes swim- ming, tennis, arts and crafts, music and drama, as well as many other fun-packed activities. The chil- dren love it! • Sailing - The summer is also the time for our very popular, filled -to -capacity sailing program run by our Sailing Coordinator, Jim Hoar. Jim has done an outstanding job providing excellent sailing in- struction to children and adults alike. • Swimming Program - The summer also is the time when our beaches and ponds are the site of our many swimming programs which continue to be among our most popular summer activities with more than 350 participants. • Tennis Program - Our instructional tennis program continues to grow every year and draws partici- pants from all age groups. The Courts at Flax Pond, Sandy Pond and the Dennis -Yarmouth High School are where this program takes place. • The Beaches - The Recreation Department is re- sponsible for staffing 13 beaches and ponds from late May until Labor Day. Approximately 46 life- guards staff these beaches and respond to a vari- ety of situations, including emergency rescues, heat stroke, cardiac arrest, lacerations, and crowd control. A contingency with our lifeguard staff are certified Water Safety Instructors who teach the various levels of our swimming classes • Fall Soccer - More than 500 children, boys and girls, ages six through fourteen, participate in Youth Soccer at municipal and school district fields. • Basketball - Late fall and winter our youth basket- ball program is in full swing. This program is for boys and girls in grades 3 through 8. The 3rd & 4th grade program is co-educational. The 5th and 6th, and 7th and 8th grade programs are separate for boys and girls. We are using all of the gym time that has been made available to us at all of the area elementary, middle, and high schools. The separate girl's program started in 1994 and 77 continues to show substantial growth in participa- tion. In addition to the Youth Basketball, we offer adult basketball and volleyball programs. • Springtime - We have 325 -plus boys and girls play- ing baseball. Participants range in age from 51/2 to 9 years old. Additionally, there is a girls' softball program which runs from the late Spring through early Summer. The Yarmouth Recreation Commission and Director would like to express their deep appreciation to Mary Lou Lapsley, Commissioner, who completed her service as a member after 10 consecutive years. Mrs Lapsley served faithfully and diligently and contributed invaluable exper- tise, input, and dedication to the youth and adults of our Town. The Yarmouth Recreation Commission also accepted with regret the resignation of Stephanie Wright. Mrs. Wright contributed unflagging energy, and ongoing support for all recreational programs and will be truly missed. The Yarmouth Recreation Commission would also like to welcome new members to the Board: John McLoughlin, Peter Adanti, Dianne Duffy, Sandy Cashen and John Ustas. In conclusion, 1995 was a year of program stabiliza- tion and an emphases on facility access and development. To move forward, additional physical facilities will be re- quired. It is time to anticipate and accommodate the con- tinual expansion of already established programs, let alone those that have been conceptualized but not yet imple- mented. We stand prepared to be as responsive to the many and diverse needs of our citizens as we possible can. Respectfully submitted, Chairman, Michael F.

Yarmouth 173 281 534 944 1 Station 2 Station 3 473 36 871 1 33 9 0 1 The method of counting emergency responses has been modified. The previous method merged incidents and responses. The new method accounts separately for both the number of incidents and the number of responses to those incidents. An incident is defined as a single event and a response is the total number of properly staffed fire/ EMS apparatus (pumpers, ladders or ambulances) sent to mitigate the emergency. The number of responses reported in 1994 was 4,651. Using the previous method of accounting, the num- ber of responses reported in 1995 would have been 5,190. The 9% increase highlights the increased activity level of the Yarmouth Fire Department. The Town of Yarmouth received $390,061.01 in fis- cal year 1995 through ambulance billing. Chief David P. Akin retired after serving as Chief of the Yarmouth Fire Department for 12 years. Dennis Brown was appointed as his successor.

The total capacity of those tanks was 17,080 gallons. The department participated in the Fire Prevention Activities at Cape Cod Mall again this year. This event, the largest fire prevention event on Cape Cod, was supported by the Yarmouth Fire Prevention Bureau, members of Firefighters Local 2122 and call firefighters. The program at Cape Cod Mall was the first opportunity to show off the new stage set that Lt. Raiskio had accepted from the Bos- ton Ballet Company. The new set was used in the fire pre- vention education program that Lt. Raiskio and Captain Phillips conducted in Dennis and Yarmouth elementary schools. The Yarmouth and Dennis Fire Departments made a joint application to the State for a SAFE (Student Aware- ness Fire Education) grant and were awarded $18,000 for fire prevention and anti-smoking education in the schools. Lt. Raiskio served as President of the Cape and Is- lands Fire Prevention Association and was recognized as a "Firefighter of the Year" by the State because of the ac- complishments of the Cape and Islands Fire Prevention Association. In addition, he has been instrumental in de- veloping a regional approach to addressing the problem of juvenile fire setters. I have enjoyed my first six months as Chief of the Yarmouth Fire Department. The members of the fire de- partment have impressed me with their positive attitude and technical competence. They are aggressive firefighters and compassionate medics. They provide an excellent level of service to the Town of Yarmouth. I wish to thank the Yarmouth Firefighters, former Chief Akin, the Town Administrator and his staff, Board of Se- lectmen, other municipal departments and their employ- ees, and the people of Yarmouth who have made me feel so welcome in this community.

Ambulance billing continues to provide significant revenue to the community. Receipts in FY 95 totaled $390,061.01. The Committee recommends increasing bill- ing to coincide with the allowable rates recognized by Medicare and other major carriers. Chairman George Shirley maintains a spreadsheet on this account and re- views the monthly reports to ensure that the account is accurate. Respectfully submitted, George C. Shirley Robert Tucker Thomas Carr MUNICIPAL FINANCE Municipal Finance Department The Town of Yarmouth was able to negate borrowing money in the anticipation of the new tax rate being set and approved by the State Department of Revenue. This was accomplished by the work of Matt Zurowick's assessing department providing the necessary information to the Fi- nance Director. Early and correct completion of the as- sessing figures gives Yarmouth a jump start on the rest of the state. With timely completion of the tax rate our tax bills were mailed and Fran Wood's Town Collector Department was able to collect taxes in a timely manner -thus no bor- rowing of money. This enables the Town to keep its cur- rent "Al" bond rating. The Town Treasurer resigned in May to relocate to New Hampshire. The search committee held interviews with many candidates. A new Treasurer was appointed by the Selectmen in December. Walfred Lundstrom comes to us from the City of West Hartford, CT, where he was employed in the Municipal Finance Department. The Finance Department wishes to express its thanks to Department Heads and Town employees for their co- operation in making this year a successful one.

The study indicated that the real estate values were holding steady. The Board of Assessors decided to hold the values on real estate the same as rast year. The Assessors Office has completed the second phase of the three (3) year reinspection of all real estate in the Town of Yarmouth. When the project is completed next year, it will satisfy the state mandated reinspection pro- gram. I would like to thank my staff, Carole, Marty, Cheryl, Jen, Janice and Nancy for all the effort they put into this project to make it a success. The Assessors Office has installed a new appraisal system. We now have a computer terminal on the front counter, the taxpayer may look up any real estate parcel in Town and have all the information right in front of them. Mr. Alfred Calabrese retired this year form the Board of Assessors. The Board of Assessors and the Assessors Office staff would like to thank Mr. Alfred Calabrese for his dedicated service as Chairman of the Board of Assessors for the last ten (10) years. He was one of the original Board members when the Town created a separate Board of As- sessors. His guidance and direction allowed the Town of Yarmouth to achieve fair and equitable assessment. Mr. Calabrese will surely be missed and we wish him well. Mr. Frank Hitchcock has joined the Board of Asses- sors this year, replacing Mr. Calabrese. He has brought over twenty-five (25) years experience as an Assessor to the Board. We are looking forward to his future contribu- tions to the Board of Assessors. Our other new member, who started in June 1995, is Mr. James Saben. He brings over fourteen (14) years of appraisal experience to the Board of Assessors. The Classification report that the Board of Assessors turned over to the Selectmen this year showed very little change from last year. It showed Residential 72.65%, Commercial 27.35% in Revenues. The Residential share of the appropriations is 78.34%, Commercial share 21.66%. This shows that Commercial is paying their fair share. The Board of Assessors recommended the factor of one. 116 CLASSIFICATION FISCAL YEAR 1996 Class 1 Residential 2 Open Space 3 Commercial 4 Industrial Exempt Total Parcel Personal Property Total Valuation Parcel Count 16,089 19 712 104 735 17,659 5,537 23,196 Valuation 1,784,918,800 1,303,400 213,229,700 15,009,200 174,129,900 2,188,603,700 65,679,109 2,254,282,809 As always, the Board of Assessors and the Asses- sors!

This year continued to bring many new exciting changes to the Treasurer's Office. During the year we reviewed the banking procedures, and went out to bid to various banks. Subsequently, there have been changes enhancing services and curtailing costs. We also did a bond issue in April 1995 for $3,150,000.00. A positive note, the Town did not need to borrow in anticipation of tax rev- enue. The office has continued to computerize additional tasks and looks forward to continuing in this effort in the new year. The tax title payments have increased, but so have the additions to the collections. The Treasurer's Office will be taking a more aggressive approach to the collection of tax titles. Thank you to all who have taken advantage of a payment plan, and anyone interested, please contact the office. .9 The former Treasurer resigned in May of 1995. :I would like to thank the staff for their dedication and hard work, especially in the transition period. I appreciate the opportunity to work for the Finance Director and the Se lectmen of the Town, and anticipate a successful new year Thank you for your support. ,1 ,C FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE TREASURER FISCAL 1995 $17,249,014.58 $57,702,108.65 Cash Summary Balance June 30, 1994 Revenue & Non -Revenue Cash Total Receipts July 1, 1994 - June 30, 1995 Revenue & Non -Revenue Cash Total Total Cash Balance & Cash Receipts Warrants Drawn June 1, 1994 - June 30, 1995 Vendor Bills Payroll Total Balance as of June 30, 1995 Invested Cash - June 30, 1995 Revenue Non -Revenue Unfunded Pension Stabilization Trust & Miscellaneous Total Total Cash and Investments June 30, 1995 $46,431,990.16 $9,968,122.78 -r _3 $74,951,123.23 $56,400,112.94 $18,551,010.29 $30,211.71 l -0- $538,188.41 '. $677,150.09 ) $1,245,550.21, J 19,796,560.50 Walf red E.

Other ongoing programs include inspections, conducted by the Health Department's staff, of restaurants, retail food stores, mo- tels, cabins, camps, public and semipublic swimming pools and whirlpools, and rental/lease housing units, along with responding to various complaints received by the depart- ment involving trash, overflowing sewage, rodents, and housing complaints of overcrowding, noise, no heat or no water, etc. The department also performed soil analyses to determine suitability of building lots.

HEALTH FAIRS AND CLINICS The Board of Health offers monthly Health Preven- tive Programs, such as Preschool Immunizations, Diabetic Screenings, Nutritional and Adult Health Counseling Clin- ics, New Mothers Group, Breathing Workshop, along with Blood Pressure and Hearing Tests on a bimonthly basis at Town Hall. Additional or expanded services are continu- ally under review by the Board. Again planned for the up- coming year are the annual Flu Clinics (1,546 people), multiple educational programs, Skin Saver, Breast Mammography, Cholesterol Screening and Glaucoma Clin- ics. The Health Department staff, in conjunction with the Red Cross, held two Heimlich Anti -Choking Clinics for food service personnel. The Health Department also held two series of pool safety certification courses consisting of 6-8 classes, for motel personnel, which included CPR, Standard First Aid, and Basic Water Safety. RABIES CONTROL PROGRAM Rabies is a disease caused by a virus which attacks the central nervous system and the brain. This disease can infect all warm-blooded animals including humans. Wildlife that most commonly carry the disease are rac- coons, skunks, foxes, and bats. However, the disease can be transmitted to petsincluding cats and dogs, and to hu- mans. Because the virus concentrates in the saliva of the infected animal, the disease is usually transmitted by a TOBACCO CONTROL PROGRAM bite or scratch, or by contact with the infected saliva. Massachusetts has been infected by the Mid -Atlan- tic strain of raccoon rabies since September, 1992. Over the course of this year, the remaining Massachusetts towns, except for Cape Cod and the Islands, have become in- fected with a total of 1, 817 animals testing positive for the disease. Yarmouth, over the course of 1995, has tested a total of 14 animals, none of which have been positive for rabies. 1995 Tallies: 14 Animals Total: Raccoon 9 Chipmunk 1 Cat 1 Bat 2 Skunk 1 To aid in the prevention of rabies crossing the Cape Cod Canal and infecting the surrounding Cape towns, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health in conjunc- tion with Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine has initiated a pilot project to create a "vaccine barrier" to control the spread of rabies in the raccoon population. Bait containing oral raccoon rabies vaccine has been periodi- cally distributed along both sides of the Cape Cod Canal since the Fall, 1993. The area of distribution is approxi- mately 80 square miles that stretches five miles south and 3 miles north of the canal. To date, the "vaccine barrier" has proven successful, keeping the rabies epidemic at bay. However, the threat of an infected animal being transported across the barrier by way of a garbage truck or other means of transportation still exists so that precautionary measures must still be taken to protect both humans and pets. The Health Department continues to work very closely with the Department of Natural Resources and Animal Control in coordinating the capture and testing of all sus- pect animals as outlined in the Town Policy developed by the Health Department in response to the rabies epidemic. The Health Department currently coordinates testing of all suspect animals which is performed by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, in addition to relaying perti- nent information and data to all affected parties of the ra- bies incident. The Health Department continues to be avail- able for town personnel training, and has numerous infor- mational pamphlets and brochures available to the public. As always, the Health Department emphasizes the importance of vaccinating all cats and dogs, as required by law, to prevent the spread of rabies. Because house- hold pets, especially cats, are the common link between infected wildlife and humans, pets must be properly re- strained and identified. Humans should avoid contact with all stray animals and wildlife and should notify the Health Department or Department of Natural Resources immedi- ately in the event of a potential rabid exposure (human or Pet) or the sighting of a strangely acting animal. 133 In 1993, the Board of Health formed an Ad-hoc Tocacco Control Sub -Committee comprised of several concerned citizens and local restaurant owners. This com- mittee met to discuss the current State and local regula- tions on tobacco control and the dangers of second-hand smoke, primarily in restaurants and other public establish- ments. In 1994, Yarmouth became one of seventeen Cape towns participating in the Regional Tobacco Control Grant, which is administered by the County Health Department. This grant is funded by the State through the cigarette tax. The proposed county wide tobacco control program will include public eduction, as well as formation and adoption of town regulations and policies that will prohibit smoking in indoor public places, such as restaurants, retail stores, office buildings, along with banning cigarette vending ma- chines to prevent under age access. LONG POND STUDY PROGRAM The State has funded a grant for the Water Quality Diagnostic/Feasibility Study of Long Pond. The first phase of the study (Diagnostic) encompassed 18 months. The conclusions were presented at a public meeting by the consultant firm of Metcalf & Eddy, Inc. Despite problems, the conclusions indicated that, if the recommendations presented are carried out, the water quality will be improved and preserved to make the pond a healthy and viable re- source for the town. Some of the recommendations are as follows: outlet structure modification, localized dredg- ing of lily pads and aquatic plants, restructure or installa- tion of catch basins so that road run off flows will not be directly discharged into the pond, inlet modification, septic tank phosphorus reduction, and a public education pro- gram. The department is presently in the process of imple- menting the Phase II of the State Grant. This fall nine drainage systems were constructed on the south side of the Pond roadways. The remaining drainage construction will be undertaken as funds become available. The Health Department staff is also participating with the Storm Water Runoff Committee in planning and imple- menting improvements to road water run off in other areas of town. THE SEPTIC MANAGEMENT PROGRAM This program, which is administered by the Health Department, was responsible for many of the town's fail- ing septic systems being upgraded. Continuing implemen- tation of this program includes: septic system maintenance pamphlets, consultations, written and audio-visual materi- als, along with sewage system location cards that are pro- vided by the Health Office staff to assist homeowners in locating their septic system for routine maintenance pump- ing. As required by state law, the Health Department re- views all Building Permits to determine the adequacy of the septic system for all projects involving building alter- ations and/or renovations, and requires upgrading of all cesspools to a new septic system, which is helping to en- sure protection of the town's groundwater quality. As a condition of receiving Federal and State assis- tance for the construction of the new septage treatment facility, the Board of Health was required to adopt a septic system inspection and maintenance regulation, to protect the public health and our vital sole -source water supply. The services of Weston & Sampson Consultants were obtained to work under the Director of Health to imple- ment the Inspection and Maintenance Program for the towns of Yarmouth and Dennis. The Town of Yarmouth statistics are as follows: Total # Inspections Acceptable Pump Recommended >20 Liquid Level Over Pipes Pump Required > Install Tee Raise Cover Other Cover Not Exposed 1st Notification Letters 2nd Notification Letters 3rd Notification Letters Total # Letters Sent Extensions Granted Septic Pumping Grants Issued 982 754 53 30 34 4 21 3 47 4,514 1,858 848 7,220 750 2 In order to ensure that a septic system continues proper operation, it is necessary from time to time to re- move the accumulated solids and sludge from the bottom of the septic tank or cesspool. It is particularly important to keep the solids from being carried over into and clog- ging the leaching system. The rate of accumulation of solids is primarily related to the intensity of use (i.e., how many people are using the septic system, is the septic system used all year or only seasonally, is a garbage grinder used), so the time interval between pumpings will vary for each home. Therefore, the regulation will require that all systems be pumped every four years or have a NO FEE inspection by town agents to determine if a pumpout is needed. PRIVATE TREATMENT PLANTS The Board of Health and the Health Department, in conjunction with Board's consultant, Wright -Pierce Engi- neers, continued to monitor and review engineered plans, and monthly operational and maintenance reports, along 134 with the Department of Environmental Protection (D.E.P.), for private sewage treatment facilities. Several meetings with D.E.P. were held for review of the treatment plants' groundwater discharge permits along with hydrological and environmental reports. There are presently operating within the Town, the following private treatment plants: 1. Buck Island Condominium 2. Cove Motel 3. King's Way 4. Mayflower Place 5.

HAZARDOUS WASTE ACTIVITY Darren Meyer, is the town's Hazardous Waste Inspec- tor. Mr. Meyer's duties include administering the Board of Health regulation, "Handling & Storage of Toxic or Haz- ardous Materials," to approximately 300 businesses within the town, to ensure all businesses are handling and stor- ing hazardous or toxic materials properly, for the protec- tion of the environment and public health. The regulation was adopted by the Board of Health on March 26, 1990 and requires annual registration and licensure for those businesses handling or storing toxic or hazardous materi- als or generating hazardous waste in the Town of Yarmouth.

Other 386 clean-up methods involved the removal of contaminated soils and the installation of ground water monitoring wells. 0 1 4 10 5 3 16 93 9 5 11 33 63 24 4 8 16 39 2 468 2,016 $18,375 33 (18,205 gallons) 2 (2,775 gallons) 0 Mr. Meyer also oversees the Annual Collection of Household Hazardous Materials, which in 1995 saw 341 households participate. The licensed hazardous waste firm of Clean Venture/Cycle Chem, collected 41 drums con- taining 2,255 gallons of paints, thinners, pesticides, and miscellaneous chemicals that were removed off -Cape to a licensed hazardous waste facility. The 1996 Collection is planned for June 29th. Mr. Meyer is also responsible for monitoring those sites listed as Confirmed Hazardous Waste Sites by the Department of Environmental Protection. The year 1995 saw nine (9) sites in the Town of Yarmouth listed as Con - 135 The Health Department is also participating with the County Health Department in offering Radon Sampling Kits at Town Hall at a discount rate. The results from all ten homes sampled, all showed the radon levels to be below the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standard of 4 picocuries per liter of air. OTHER ACTIVITIES The Health Department continues to add and main- tain many of its administrative functions for monitoring the public health and environment on the Health Department computer, with the following programs: underground gaso- line storage tanks, hazardous waste, right to know, septage pumping data for all residential and commercial buildings, nitrate loading restrictions, complaints, housing rentals, dog bite reports, food service, swimming pools, well water analysis, along with pond, river, and coastal water analy- sis. As in prior years, 1995 saw the Health Agents con- tinue to work toward a more harmonious environment and public health standards through their attendance of, and their involvement in, meetings, seminars, conferences, sponsored by the State Department of Public Health, the Massachusetts Environmental Health Association, the Mas- sachusetts Health Officers Association, Barnstable County Health Department Seminars and by serving on various state, town and county committees. Also, the Health Agent served as a member of the Barnstable County Hospital Trustees (16 yrs.), as a mem- ber of the Barnstable County Hospital's long-range Plan- ning Committee (16 yrs.), and as a member of the Visiting Nurse Association Advisory Board, all of which he is still currently involved in. The Health Agent was re-elected (for the ninth year) to the Executive Board for the Massachu- setts Health Officers Association for Health Service Area 5 (Cape Cod and Southern Massachusetts). The Health Agent's appointment by the Governors Dukasis & Weld continues, for the eighth year, on the State Board of Reg- istration for Certified Health Officers, of which he is Chair- man. The Board of Health held eighteen (18) meetings during 1995. A total of 50 Hearings or variance requests were brought before the Board as follows: a. 25 Variance requests from Town or State Sew- age Regulations for septic system repair; b. 5 Variance requests from Town or State Sewage Regulations for construction of a new septic sys- tem for new homes; c. 26 Variance requests from the Board's Nitrate - Nitrogen Loading Regulation; d. 3 Massage License requests; e. 12 Meetings with the Human Service Agencies; f. 35 Miscellaneous Hearings.

Robert Brown, Ph.D. 138 POLICE DEPARTMENT Report of the Police Department To the Honorable Board of Selectmen; I herewith submit my Annual Report for the activities of the Yarmouth Police Department. For the entire Depart- ment, 1995 has been a year of transition with the retire- ment of Chief Robert Chapman in May, after serving the citizens of Yarmouth since 1956. As the new Chief of Po- lice, I feel most fortunate to be associated with the dedi- cated professionals that comprise the Yarmouth Police Department. I also appreciate their positive attitudes and their willingness to work together in a variety of new Polic- ing Programs for our Community. Overall, each of our per- sonnel has made a commitment to work closer with the community which they serve, by contributing to our Com- munity Policing philosophy. These contributions included the development of a motto for the Department "Commit- ted to our Community". To enhance our Community Polic- ing efforts the Executive Office of Public Safety awarded the Department $30,000. to establish a Citizen's Police Academy, a Bicycle Patrol, and a Senior Services Divi- sion. These Programs were greatly extended by the dona- tion of our Officers' time in many of these Programs. I cer- tainly appreciate their generosity and the constant willing- ness to demonstrate a positive image of the Yarmouth Police Department. We have also expanded our School Resource Officer Program by the implementation of an "Adopt a School" Program in which a Patrol Officer is as- signed to each Elementary School. This Program has been exciting for the Department, the School Staff and the stu- dents. We are pleased with the results and the positive impressions that are presented by our Adopt -a -School Li- aisons. During 1995 through the assistance of funding from the State, we expanded our Drug Abuse Resistance Edu- cation Program to include a second Officer to work with the Mattacheese Middle School. In response to many citizen complaints our Officers increased our Highway Safety Program with a focus on speeding and drunk driving enforcement. The Governor's Highway Safety Bureau awarded our Department funds to purchase an advanced lidar laser unit for speed detection and $5,000.00 to use for accident prevention. Thirty Offic- ers participated in an advanced training to improve our ability to detect and prosecute alleged drunk drivers through recognition of eye movements. As a result, more than 200 arrests were made for operating under the influence of al- cohol. During 1995 we used our Department members to survey various options on improving our firearms and pro- moting Officer safety. As a result of the work of this 'Fire- arms Committee a specific firearm was recommended and 139 a training program initiated. The new weapons were pur- chased without cost to the Town by using funds that had been seized from Drug Enforcement efforts. Each officer was equipped with the state of the art firearm, holster and training. I commend the work of the Firearms Committee on this project. We also incorporated the firearms training with our annual in-service program which included the use of our staff in lieu of sending Officers to the Plymouth Acad- emy for the forty -hour In-service. In closing, I would like to inform our residents of two areas of concern within the Yarmouth Police Department as we go into the future. The first being an immediate need for improvement of our present facility, we are currently lacking work space in a building with many deficiencies. The second is the steady rate of increase in our calls for service. The demands on our Officers have increased dra- matically over the past three years. In 1993 we received 20,327 calls for service, 1994 23,662 calls for service, and in 1995 28,575 calls for service. Due to the current rate of activity and increase, I have suggested to the Board of Selectmen that we consider the need for increasing the current staffing level of the Yarmouth Police Department. I thank each of you for the continued support of the efforts of the men and women of the Yarmouth Police. Respectfully Submitted; Chief Peter L.

Chapman Chief of Police 38 Years of Service Morris I. Johnson Director of Natural Resources 30 Years of Service David P. Akin Fire Chief 12 Years of Service a PUBLIC WORKS Annual Town Report , Department of Public Works Two of the most pressing issues throughout the year involved both the Landfill Closure and Septage Treatment Plant operations. Negotiations with Department of Envi- ronmental Management on Landfill Closure were consum- mated with a signed Consent Order Agreement dated July 21, 1995. With this agreement, the Town agreed to stop burying waste by December 31, 1995 and to place a cap of synthetic fabric over the 57 acres of the active Landfill in two phases. Once the cap is in place we then plan to build a 9 hole addition to Bayberry Hills Golf Course on the closed and capped Landfill. The DPW has been working with Golf Commissioners, Golf Superintendent and Greenskeeper along with Camp, Dresser & McKee and Golf Course Ar- chitect, Ault, Clark & Associates on the golf course plan- ning for the additional 9 holes. You will probably hear some- one yelling "fore" on the new nine in 1999 or 2000, if all goes as planned. The revenue generated on the expanded golf course should pay for all monitoring costs required by D.E.P. for the next thirty years. Our water supply consultants, Whitman & Howard, working with our Landfill Risk Assessment Consultant, SEA Consultants, completed a required Comprehensive Site Assessment of the Yarmouth Landfill and submitted the document to D.E.P. for the review. Fortunately for the Town, the assessment predicts the Town's water supply wells will not be threatened by any contamination of the groundwa- ter originating from the Landfill. The Landfill will be capped entirely by the end of 1997 which should eliminate any further groundwater contamination leaving the Landfill site. We are in negotiations with D.E.P. on the limits which have to be capped in each phase. The Consent Order calls for using official Zone II water supply limits established in 1985 and 1992. These limits are very conservative and do not reflect every day real world conditions. The Town's re- quest for changing the limits is based on the new informa- tion generated during the Comprehensive Site Assessment conducted specifically for the Landfill site and surrounding areas. The matter is complicated by the fact that ground- water flows both north and south from under the Landfill. We have met several times with D.E.P. Southeast Regional Office and feel we have reached agreement to cap 8+ acres in the first phase and the balance of the 57 acres in the second phase. We will be seeking funding for the first phase closure at ATM April 96. In order to remove all operations off the area where we bury waste at the Landfill site, we have started modify- 148 ing the Residential Drop Off Area. DPW, working with it's consultants and the Recycling and Solid Waste Advisory Committee, have developed a Master Plan to allow all ac- tivities to take place to the right of the Landfill entrance, once you pass through the gates. We will relocate the Compost Area first, to the north of the Landfill building and present Recycling Area into the former septage lagoons area. We must also establish an area to accept construc- tion and demolition (C & D) debris and non-SEMASS Waste. Construction and demolition debris will be loaded into a contractor's trailer and hauled away for disposal. When the residential yard waste Compost Drop Off area is moved to the north, we plan to build a new Resi- : dential Household Refuse Drop Off in the vacated Com- post Drop Off Area. This new residential drop off area will house the co -mingled recycling, paper and cardboard re- cycling containers, depressed as the refuse containers are now. When this new residential household refuse drop off area is completed, the old residential drop off area will be converted to the brush disposal and metals disposal ar- eas. You will be able to dispose of all material presently disposed of at the landfill albeit the cost for disposal will increase. We reduced Landfill tip fees two years ago to attract revenue generating waste to the Landfill in hopes of meet= ing D.E.P. top slope closure grades with said waste in lieu of having to truck in fill. It looks like we accomplished this goal. In anticipation of no longer being permitted to bury waste, the Board of Selectmen increased the disposal fee to $65.00 per ton up from the low of $40.00 per ton. On January 1, 1996, we will incur the cost of trucking all the formerly buried waste off site for disposal, the disposal tip fee will increase to $90.00 per ton. With this new fee, we hope to cover the contractor's cost for hauling and dis- posal ($64.49/ton) and our handling cost for loading the contractor's trailers with C & D debris. In any event, the Landfill area will see many changes over the next year or two, all of which should help to im- prove operations and hopefully be more convenient for our customers. The Septage Treatment Plant has proven to be a persistent challenge since the Plant opened in July 1992: While the plant flows have increased, we have found it necessary to reduce our tip fee to $.08 per gallon due to competition from other septage disposal facilities both on and off Cape.This is an amzazingly low disposal fee con- sidering the Town charged $.05 per gallon when they dis- posed of septage in the septage lagoons at the Landfill site. We now process septage at the Yarmouth -Dennis Septage Treatment Plant and produce an excellent quality . effluent while disposing of all sludge off Cape. Despite low- ering our fees, we project revenue to exceed expenses in EY96 and FY97 based on market conditions at the end of 1995. As we plan for closure of the Landfill we will be in- vestigating means of utilizing the Septage Treatment Plant effluent to irrigate the additional 9 holes at Bayberry Hills Golf Course. We hope this will be allowed by the D.E.P. since the good quality of the effluent has exceeded all ex- pectations and D.E.P. discharge permit requirements. If this method of irrigation can be instituted, we could signifi- cantly reduce costs at the Golf Course for irrigation and generate additional revenue at the Septage Treatment Plant. -•r Septage Treatment Plant History of Yearly Quantities Treated FY93 (July 92 - June 93) Total Gallons 7,008,000 FY94 (July 93 - June 94) Total Gallons 9,074,773 FY95 (July 94 - June 95) Total Gallons 11,648,862 In July 1995, the Town selected Weston & Sampson Services, Inc (WSS) to replace Operations Management International, Inc. (OMI) as the contract operators of the Yarmouth -Dennis Septage Treatment Plant. WSS has stopped compost operations on the site and is trucking sludge off Cape for disposal to save on operational costs. This lack of compost on site should eliminate the compost odors which were problematic in the summer months. By shutting down the odor control equipment in the compost building, we hope to save $66,000 in electrical charges. We are continuing to search for ways to reduce costs or improve efficiency to remain competitive in this ever chang- ing market. To improve our efficiency in utilizing personnel at the Septage Treatment Plant, we upgraded the computer hard-, ware and networked the computers. This coupled with improved computer software, allows plant personnel and the Inspection and Maintenance personnel to maintain files and communications on a common computer system. The fact that WSS is the contractor for both plant operations and the Inspection and Maintenance contractor for the Board of Health, has allowed us to reduce the overall num- ber of staff required, thereby reducing operating costs. cl . We are communicating with other septage facilities on Cape to develop a more cooperative approach to septage disposal and pricing. The present approach is dangerous for all who are trying to provide a public. service at the lowest possible cost. All facilities need to generate enough capital to allow for periodic replacement of Septage 149 Treatment Plant equipment. The present system of lower- ing prices to attract more septage is a dangerous practice in the long term. On the Highway front we started out the year with a bang! Actually it was a truck fire in one of our large six wheel dump trucks early in the snow -ice season. We suc- cessfully replaced the truck in February following a bid opening in January. We completed the construction of Wood Road which included the connection of a sidewalk link from Route 28 to Station Avenue in the spring. The work was done under contract with Robert B.Our Company and every one was extremely pleased with the end results. Following water service replacement and storm drain- age improvements, (under separate contracts), we recycled pavement and resurfaced South Street, South Shore Drive, and Seaview Avenue. Our original plans were to complete all major work in this area on or before June 30, but the project dragged on through August, much to everyone's chagrin. The final results however, were a marked improve- ment on these roadways. We began discussion with residents abutting Buck Island 'Road' and -Town Brook Road on safety and pave- ment improvements. The overall objective is to make Buck Island Road more user friendly for pedestrians and bicy- clists. It appears that a separated six foot wide sidewalk with slightly higher roadway pavement can satisfy this ob- jective on Buck Island Road with a four foot wide sidewalk on Town Brook Road. We will be working through the Mas- sachusetts Highway Department, who will fund the con- struction improvements once the Town completes design work. Due to right of way restrictions, Town Brook Road will have a sidewalk and curbing adjacent to the pavement. We are currently planning storm drainage improve- ments on Old Town House Road between Station Avenue and Forest Road. Apparently the existing catch basins on this roadway were never interconnected with a piped storm drainage system, nor were any leaching facilities connected to the existing catch basins. No wonder Old Town House Road i s a river in any substantial rainfall. We hope to con- struct a piped system leading to a leaching area sometime this spring of 1996. Additionally we are planning improvements on (Old) Main Street, South Yarmouth and Pleasant Street in con- junction with water main and service replacement planned by the Water Division. This work will take place in the spring and fall with a construction shut down in July and August. The DPW office, through the diligent work of Admin- istrative Assistant, Barbara Benoit, has secured private road petitions for more than 1/3 of the Town's 90 miles of pri- vate roads in the Town. We plan to obtain petitions for all private roads in Town so that we can include them in our Pavement Management activities under the Roadway Management Program. Continued funding by means of borrowing $5 million this coming April will be critical in the continuation of the Pavement Management Program. Un- der the program we are scheduling the elimination of storm drainage problems and preserving or improving pavement surfaces through a computerized inventory of all pavement surfaces. The objective is to preserve the $75 million dol- lars in value the 225 miles of the Town's roadways repre- sent. We continue to work at the Highway Division to ad- dress soil and groundwater contaminations resulting from the fuel and gasoline tanks removed from the site last year. We recently removed the drywell serving the floor drain in the Highway Garage, and replaced it with a 5,000 gallon tight tank with an upper level alarm. The pile of soil is await- ing disposal at a licensed facility. We hope this final action will close the chapter on this work which has proven to be costly and time consuming to address. Early last year, Parks and Cemetery personnel cleared the extension of the existing bikepath in Bayberry Hills Golf Course. The trail previously dead ended but when paved this coming spring, will link between West Yarmouth Road and Higgins Crowell Road. We are awaiting the Golf Course personnel to clear another access road so they no longer use the bike trail for their maintenance equipment before we complete this link. This portion of the bike trail will hopefully be further linked to the Cape Cod Rail Trail in Dennis in the next few years. The bike trail extension will be extended through the Landfill as part of the Landfill Clo- sure and Re -Use, which includes a 10 acre recreational complex on the east end of the site (at the former composting area). The Fishing Deck at Sea Holly Park at Parker's River and Route 28 was finally completed with help from fund- ing through the State Public Access Board. A small park- ing area, for those wishing to use the deck, is on the other side of the river. The' Parks and Cemeteries staff, along with John Sears of the Yarmouth Conservation Trust, fin- ished the deck, access ramp, and landscaping on the site. To cap an exciting and very busy year, a memorial stone was dedicated at Bass River Beach commemorat- ing the 50th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor which launched the U.S. into World War II. Hundreds attended the dedication on December 7, 1995. The memorial was created through the efforts of the Parks and Cemeteries personnel, who relocated the flag pole and the Veteran's organization which supplied a memorial stone. 150 ENGINEERING DIVISION Richard P. DeMello, Town Engineer During 1995, the Engineering Division forged ahead in a series of dynamic steps toward greater use of tech- nology and greater productivity. The increasing demands on the division were again met as we continue to grow professionally. We are proud to report that the Division's computer system became fully integrated this year. With the purchase of a Novell Network in June, combined with the purchase of an Electronic Data Collector last year, all our field data can now be handled electronically. Data col- lected in the field can be stored on the network, enabling more than one person at a time to create a plan, edit a an existing plan, or create a paper copy. Plans are currently under way to also integrate the Geographic Information System (GIS) and to make the GIS more user friendly. The Enhanced 911 Project was implemented in the Town of Yarmouth in July 1995. Although the database was substantially completed at the end of 1994, Bob Garcia (Town Surveyor) continues to work closely with NYNEX and the Police and Fire Departments updating records to insure accuracy. We would like to thank him for his contin- ued dedication to this very important project. As in 1994, drainage improvements (design and con- struction) under the Roadway Management Program (RMP) were a priority for the Engineering Division in 1995 because poor drainage leads to accelerated pavement deterioration, increased maintenance cost, and poor driv- ing conditions. With the assistance from engineering con- sultants, contractors, and the Highway Division, and as a result of increased funding under the RMP, the number of drainage improvements completed this year surpassed all previous years. Drainage systems were installed on the following roads: Abells Road (2 locations), Appleby Road, Ash Lane, Augusta Way (2), Baker's Path, Baxter Avenue (2), Bray Farm Road North, Brush Hill Road, Burning Tree Lane, Carter Road, Carver Road (2), Coolidge Road, Cot- tonwood Street, Country Club Drive (2), Cranberry Lane (S.Y.), Davis Road (2), Ellis Circle, Francis Helen Road, Geneva Road (2), Glenwood Road, Golden Road Lane, Harbor Road (2), Hemlock Path, Highbank Road, Hope Road (2), Ice House Road, Indian Memorial Drive (4),Jacqueline Circle, Lakeland Avenue (2), Lakewood Road, Liverpool Drive, Longfellow Drive, Long Pond Drive (6), Mattakese Road (2), Mattis Drive, Nantucket Avenue (4), Nauhaught Road, Old Church Street, Oyster Cove Road (3), Pamet Road, Pebble Beach Way, Pine Street (Ypt.) (3), Pine Grove Road, Run Pond Road, Salt Box Lane, South Street, South Shore Drive, St. Andrews Way (2), Tam-O-Shanter Way (3), Town Hall Avenue, Viking Rock Road, Wadsworth Lane, Walnut Street, Webfoot Way, West Yarmouth Road (15), White's Path, Wilfin Road, Wing Grove Park, Winslow Gray Road and Witchwood Road. Several of the above systems were installed for the Storm water Runoff Committee as part of their surface water qual- ity improvements program. The following drainage construction projects are scheduled to be installed in the Spring: Baxter Avenue (2), Blue Rock Road, Curve Hill Road, Eldridge Road (2), North Dennis Road (2), (Old) Main Street, Old Town House Road, Pleasant Street (12), Reflection Way, Wampanoag Road (3), and Winter Street. In addition to the numerous drainage improvements, many pavement improvements were made under the RMP to many Town and Private Roads. These improvements included crackfilling, full depth patching, chip sealing, pave- ment overlays and pavement recycling. Special focus was placed on repairing roads that experienced significant ic- ing problems and/or significant maintenance (pothole patching) efforts. The process called "cold -in-place recy- cling" was utilized to reconstruct South Street, South Shore Drive, and Seaview Avenue. This process is significantly less expensive and less intrusive than total reconstruction thereby saving significant tax dollars while minimizing im- pacts on the abutters and the driving public. Other major roads that were improved under the RMP included all or portions of: Baker's Path, Camp Street, Fesseden Street, Indian Memorial Drive, Long Pond Drive, Mulford Street, Springer Lane, Strawberry Lane, West Yarmouth Road (north of Route 6), and Wood Road. Ma- jor improvements planned for next year include work on all or portions of: Abell's Road, Baxter Avenue, Glenwood Street, Harbor Road, (Old) Main Street, Old Town House Road, Park Avenue, Pleasant Street, Somerset Street, West Yarmouth Road, and Winter Street. Other major roads will be considered at a later date should the RMP be funded again in April. We will also continue to update the roadway condition computer data base and to evaluate future phases of the RMP. All Town owned and operated traffic signals were evaluated and improvements made as warranted. We con- tinue to evaluate possible improvements to the Old Town House Road/Forest Road intersection. Plan reviews, field inspections, surveys, designs and/ or plan preparations were completed for other Depart- ments, Boards and Commissions. Specific projects in- cluded: topographic details and plan preparation for the Landfill capping and residential dropoff/recycling area evaluation and redesign; miscellaneous road sideline defi- iitions for residents, the Sign Inspector and the Highway Division in regard to encroachments, sign locations, brush ;learing and fence locations; survey/design/bid for new Title ✓: Septic Systems installed at the Bass River Beach Con- ;ession stand and the Yarmouth Library; survey plan and 151 assistance/review for above ground fuel storage tanks at the Bayberry Hills Golf Course; complete set of composite plans (entire Town) for Growth Policy Advisory Council as well as Planning Department; set elevations behind John Simpkins School for Recreation Department in order to set new playground equipment; survey/design/bid new Title V Septic System to be installed at Sea Gull Beach; repav- ing of Bass River Beach parking lot and Bass River Golf Course cart paths; worked with DNR in preparation/sub- mittal of grant application to State for drainage improve- ments to Bass River; coordinate/review consultant plans for drainage improvements to Route 28 and parking lot improvements to Mill Lane/Route 28 lot; bid/oversight of fishing deck installation and other improvements at the Sea Holly Park; preparation of specifications for and bidding of roadway construction and materials (67 items) for use by all Town Departments; revision of bid documents/design plans for above noted drainage projects; easement plan finalizing/recording for off-site parking at Sea Holly Park; Conservation Commission permitting for all drainage re- moved from wetlands; Barnstable/Yarmouth Transporta- tion Study participation; and, field locations for booths at the Yarmouth Seaside Festival. The Engineering Division was honored during 1995 at an awards ceremony by the Police Department in rec- ognition of the surveying and plan information provided to them regarding traffic accidents and court cases. Bob Garcia, our Town Surveyor, was given additional recogni- tion for his efforts. In June we were sad to say goodbye to Pamela Howard, who had been a great asset to our division. We wish her well as she continues her career. In order to more. efficiently utilize our computerized drafting network, we reconstructed her position prior to filling it. After much con- sideration, we hired Bruce Barrow as our new GIS/CAD technician. We heartily welcome him to the Engineering Division. Throughout the year, daily assistance was also pro- vided to many other Town departments, Boards, Commit- tees, as well as the many citizens whQ visited or telephoned our office with information requests and questions. HIGHWAY DIVISION William E. Nixon, Superintendent/Tree Warden The Highway Division of the Department of Public Works is responsible for the maintenance of 224 miles of roadway and 21 miles of sidewalks. Maintenance consists of patching roadways; installing and repairing bituminous aprons and berms; installing, repairing, and cleaning of catch basins; roadside clean-up of litter; roadside mowing of grass; resolving encroachments and roadway obstruc- tions (sight distance); cutting roadside brush, limbs and shrubs, making, installing and repairing metal and con- Contract and Town Sweeping crete traffic signs. Resurfacing/Overlays Single and Double Stone Roadway Sealcoating completed: 157,029 square yards Machine and Handwork In -Place Bituminous Concrete: 1,760 tons Infra -Red Asphalt Repair Patching: 19,019 square feet Crack filler hot applied: 1,202 gallons Miscellaneous Pavement Patches In -Place: 393 tons 3" Cold Binder Pavement (Oyster Cove Road): 407 tons Repairs/Maintenance/Installation on Catch Basins We repaired 41 collapsed/failed catch basins this year, cleaned 950 and several were installed. Catch Basin Pipe Cleaning was done by private contract services on 53 roads and 160 basins serviced. Roadside Maintenance Roadside Brush Removal (Town and Private): Roadside mowing/shoulders: Dead animals picked up: Gravel roads graded: Road (dirt) grading material: Tons of hot mix applied to potholes/small projects: Tons of cold patch for winter months for potholes and patching: 155 streets 29 miles of road 4-5 times a year 204 75+ new petitions filed (twice annually) 304 yards Hardening 1,870 tons 3/4 Processed Stone 501 tons All 224 miles of Town and private roads were swept during April and May. A total of 60 additional roadways were swept prior to and after chip sealing was completed. All 21 miles of sidewalks were swept. All Town parking lots (33) were swept annually. Traffic Signs and Markings The Highway Sign Department replaced 277 various traffic signs including Street Name, Stop, No Parking, Dead End, School Crossing and sign posts. Various specialized signs for Parks, DNR, Harbormaster, Golf Course, Sanita- tion, Police, Fire, Recreation, Health and other Town de- partments were also manufactured and installed. All Stop Bars (225), Crosswalks (9), Railroad Cross- ing (8), Centerlines and fog lines (portions), Turn Arrows (8), and Stop Ahead (2) traffic markings were painted throughout the Town. Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance On going repairs and maintenance were done on Highway vehicles and equipment and other department's vehicles upon request. Highway Division mechanics also do annual safety inspections. Snow and Ice Removal This past winter of 1994-1995 was quite mild with only 11 call outs for sanding and one call out for plowing. Tree Department Under the direction of William E. Nixon, Tree War- den, the maintenance and removal of trees is assigned to Highway Division personnel and outside services with spe- 23 tons cialized equipment. Chapter 90 State Aid Projects Two projects were completed with 100% reimburse- ment from the State for a total of $350,000 in 1995. The State's allotment of new funding for 1995 is $687,078. Fortunately a portion of this funding can be used for road- way building equipment and will save the Town capital budget expenditures for the Highway Division. 152 Maintenance of Massachusetts Relief Tree Grants (2) continues annually, over -lapping the next fiscal year. Nine trees had to be replaced out of the tree budget as part of the maintenance program. A Town -wide maintenance survey was completed on all scenic roads in the Town to determine their maintenance needs in 1994. In 1995, trees were trimmed, pruned and removed for obstructions and safety on 7 scenic roads: Weir Road, Thacher Shore Road, Summer Street, Straw- berry Lane, all in Yarmouthport, Main Street, River Street and Pleasant Street in South Yarmouth. Spraying for insect control was not required in 1995. Other Department Work Requests Assistance to other Town departments included: Fire, Police, Park, Cemetery, Landfill, Housing Authority, School (5), Golf Course (2), Engineering, Water, DNR, Harbormaster, Recreation Departments, arid Senior Citi- zen Center. We would like to thank other Town departments and boards for their assistance and support throughout the year. A "special thank you to the Highway Staff for their continu- ing efforts and good work. PARK & CEMETERY DIVISION Philip L. Whitten, Director The Park and Cemetery Division is staffed by eleven full time year round employees who are dedicated to pro- vide quality service and recreational facilities for public use. This work force is augmented, on a seasonal basis, by 35- 37 seasonal employees. It is this team that works to main- tain, improve, repair and operate the many diverse facili- ties that we provide. These facilities include recreational parks, cemeteries, beaches, playgrounds, landscaped is- lands, memorials and historical grounds. The Cemetery Division preserves and operates the seven municipal cemeteries within the Town of Yarmouth. We are committed to a quality design and development of the Chandler Gray Cemetery over the next few years which will become the primary Yarmouth Cemetery. There were 109 burials in the cemeteries during 1995. Forty lots were sold, 8 -one grave lots, 25 -two grave lots, 4 -four grave lots, and 1 cremation lot. One grave was pro- vided to a veteran and two spouses purchased adjacent graves. The cemetery fees were reviewed and were in- creased for the 1995 year. The fee schedule is presently: Single lots: 2 Grave lots: 3 Grave lots: 4 Grave lots: 2 Grave Cremation lots Recording Fee: $300.00 600.00 900.00 1,200.00 125.00 10.00 The total revenue taken in from the sale of cemetery ots was $18,650.00. This was received as $4,670.00 for ots, $13,650.00 for perpetual care and $330.00 was turned 153 over to the Town for recording deeds. There was one single grave lot sold back to the Town for $250.00. All sales of lots are within the Chandler Gray Cem- etery located off Higgins Crowell Road in West Yarmouth. We have accomplished a number of improvements during 1995: The historical burial stones which were deteriorated and broken were repaired within the Baptist Cem- etery. We have completed transferring all of the burial records of our seven cemeteries to our computer. We also have records of the burials in the two private cemeteries in Yarmouth; Woodside Cemetery in Yarmouthport and the Quaker Cemetery in South Yarmouth. We still have numerous requests from families all over the country to find burial places of their ancestors going back to the 1600's and 1700's. We have purchased several books regarding vital records and the history of Yarmouth which helps in our pursuit to locate burial sites of ancestors. We are still working on entering maps of our cem- eteries into the computer which will help people lo- cate gravesites in the various cemeteries. We will be working toward installing a new water ser- vice at Ancient Cemetery in 1996. The Park Division concentrates on the recreational parks, beaches and open space operations as well as the care and maintenance of all facilities. The resident beach sticker fees were increased for the 1995 beach season in order to produce monies for the improvements and repairs to the many beach facilities. The resident beach sticker is $15.00 for the first, $8.00 for the second to the same household and $15.00 for any subse- quent one./ Some of the beach fees will increase for 1996, as the charge for parking will increase one dollar at Sea Gull and Bass River Beaches from $7.00 to $8.00 per day. The fee for Parkers River Beach and Sea View Beach will remain at $7.00. The $30.00 weekly pass and the $75.00 seasonal pass will remain as they were in 1995. The beach revenue from all sources for the 1995 season was $326,142.00. This is an increase of $20,142.00 over the 1994 season. The public access boat ramp at Bass River Beach operated its first season with the $6.00 daily or $30.00 seasonal sticker launch and park fee program. We will make some improvements on seasonal sticker use of 1996. The hospitality providers weekday beach pass pro- gram was successful for the third year. During 1995, we were able to complete the following projects, improvements and repairs: Designed, bid and installed an irrigation system and constructed a control system shelter at Sandy Pond. This was done through the cooperative efforts of the Park, D -Y School Grounds Department and the Yarmouth Youth Soccer Association Programs. The two new bathhouses at Parkers River Beach and Flax Pond Recreational Facility were completed and opened for the 1995 summer season. The new concession stand at Parkers River Beach was completed in time for the summer of 1995. Repaired, replaced or installed numerous gates and fences at the public beaches. The wooden guard- rails at Parkers River Beach and Bass River Beach are an excellent improvement to those facilities. Instituted some innovative solutions to provide ven- dor services at Judan Way and at Packets Landing. Converted almost all islands and memorials to pe- rennial gardens and contributed to the development of the large perennial garden at Buck Island and West Yarmouth Roads. The Bass River Beach parking lot was paved to im- prove the overall quality of the facility. We participated in the design, permitting, bidding, awarding and construction of the handicapped and public improvements at Bass River and Parkers River Beaches. These improvements included decks for the concession stands, walkway to bathhouse at Bass River Beach and a handicapped bathroom at Bass River Beach. We have participated in the development of a sum- mer police review and evaluation program. This on- going program will improve service and help develop an improved job description. The Division's goals for 1996 include the following: Installation of a new septic system at Sea Gull Beach. Work (combined efforts) with the Public Access Board to repair the boat parking lot at Bass River Beach. 154 Restripe the Bass River Beach parking lot and install new gates. Bid and award the railing repairs and replacement on the jetty at Englewood Beach. Complete the erosion control and drainage project at Dennis Pond Beach as modified by working with the abutters. Develop a plan for recreational facilities on the Land- fill. The Park and Cemetery Division is a very dynamic agency of the Town of Yarmouth. We are primarily a ser- vice division that functions by providing facilities and op- portunities for recreation. In Yarmouth, this is wide ranging from Bass Hole in Yarmouthport to the beach at Sea Gull and from the Baxter Grist Mill to Packets Landing and Wilbur Park. The value of the visit is often dependent on the qual- ity of the service. We attempt, as professional employees, to provide that level of service. We often rely on assis- tance from other departments and divisions within the town to complete our service program. We appreciate the co- operation and help. WASTE MANAGEMENT DIVISION SOLID WASTE AND RECYCLING Peter G. Homer, Superintendent Effective January 1, 1996 we will no longer be landfilling materials. Any construction and demolition, or SEMASS unacceptable waste will be shipped to another Landfill, probably off Cape. We are in the process of con- structing a pad to ship this type of material, and to remove the brush and metal piles from the Landfill, so the Landfill can be capped. In December we started co -mingled recycling, where bottles, cans, aluminum, and plastics can be placed in the same rolloff container. These recyclables are then being shipped to a processing plant in Brockton. We are also recycling newsprint, corrugated cardboard, magazines, used motor oil, oil filters, metals, and car batteries. We have composted yard waste into approximately 3,000 yards of finished product that will be used as top soil for the Land- fill Closure. There were a total of 26,240.99 tons of construction and demolition debris landfilled, of which 15,185.26 tons came from out of Town. The revenue from out of Town tonnage has helped to cut down the cost of capping the Landfill. There were 6,540.55 tons of household refuse that went through our rolloff area to the Transfer Station. The Landfill was open 362 days in 1995, closing for New Years Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. STRUCTURES Thomas Butkowsky Structures, a division of DPW, was formerly known as the Town Hall and Other Properties. Its primary con- cerns deal with building maintenance and repairs along with more specialized improvements to various facilities. Structures, at this time, consists of one individual, carrying out routine maintenance needs and repairs of several build- ings. These repairs include changing of lights, painting, (interior and exterior), replacing blown off shingles, win- dow and door repair, shrub trimming at Town Hall and the Police Department, snow removal from sidewalks at Town Hall, maintenance of cooling tower and heating system, ordering supplies, and numerous other duties associated with facilities maintenance. Through a grant from HUD, the following projects were completed in 1995: 1. At Town Hall there were improvements made to the restrooms and the east side entrance. These improvements were made to better serve the needs of handicapped persons. 2. Assistance was given to Recreation and Park Departments by designing and drawing the plans for accessible ramps and deck areas at Bass River and Parkers River Beaches. Also at Bass River, plans were drawn up for the creation of a single user ADA accessible bathroom. Other in-house projects completed this year by this department are as follows: 1. At the Police Station the old unused dark room was dismantled and remodeled into an officer work room. This included installation of a win- dow, covering the block wall with plaster, and con- structing 28' of desk -high counter space for work stations. 2. The back stairway entrance at the Police Station was expanded and completely enclosed to allow room for a gun loading barrel. This allows for safe loading and unloading of the officer's firearms and a covered entrance during bad weather. 3. At Town Hall, the Accounting office was expanded to include an office for the Director of Finance. This was accomplished by remodeling part of the computer room and the back part of the Account- ing Office. This allowed the new office to be eas- ily accessible to both the computer room and the Accounting Office while maintaining its own pri- vacy. Other small projects this year included: 1. Underground oil tank removal at West Yarmouth Library and the installation of several recessed lights. 2. Concrete block enclosure built at Sandy Pond to house irrigation controls and backflow preventor. 3. Storage compartment built at Englewood Beach for Recreation Department. 4. Owner annual tests were completed on town - owned backflow devices, including Dennis - Yarmouth School District. 5. Many repairs made to the barn apartment at Bray Farm. This year at the request of the DPW Director, a re- view of some 50 town -owned structures was compiled. This review included what maintenance and repairs are needed for each structure. This list was then prioritized, and cost estimates were done. This list will be helpful in trying to bring all the buildings up to good repair in the coming years. In 1995, as in past years, proved to be quite busy in trying to meet the various needs. I am sure in 1996 this will not change. Only the continued cooperation and support of the various departments will make next year as con- structive as 1995. 155 TRANSFER STATION Robert B. Angell, Superintendent The Transfer Station accepts solid waste from the towns of Barnstable, Yarmouth, Orleans, and Wellfleet. Waste is delivered by commercial and municipal vehicles, and inspected for unacceptable material, then loaded into rail cars for shipment to SEMASS, waste to energy plant, in Rochester. The station operates six days per week, clos- ing only on Sundays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day. The station runs with a staff of four full time and two part time employees. In 1995, the Transfer Station had many waste pro- fessionals from Europe and Japan visit and observe the operation. The Japanese are interested in how we ship waste by rail as they would like to accomplish the same task. Included in this group were the public works director of Tokyo, and a consultant to the Japanese parliament on environmental affairs. Sea gulls were a problem in 1994 and the beginning of 1995. In March, a low cost, sea gull deterrent was in- stalled. It is constructed of telephone poles and guy wires, with heavy fish line strung from the building out to the poles. This disturbs the flight pattern of the gulls without causing any harm to wildlife. After seeing how the deterrent works, other Transfer Stations and Landfills have installed the same system. Cape Cod enjoyed another good year of weather, bringing the tourists. This resulted in an increase in total tons of waste over 1994. The following tonnage was shipped in 2,011 rail cars: Barnstable Yarmouth Orleans Wellfleet Total Tons 46,049.04 24, 367.19 2,820.38 86.62 73,323.23 I would personally like to thank the Transfer Station staff for a job well done handling this amount of waste in 1995. The Transfer Station thanks the municipal and com- mercial customers for a successful year and the municipal departments that help the station run smoothly. WATER DIVISION Richard A.

The peak day was July 7, 1995, when 8,803,000 gallons were pumped, which is 1,310,000 less than the peak day of 1994: The peak week occurred between the 4th and 10th of July when 58,863,000 gallons were pumped, which is 2,105,000 less than 1994. The peak month was July when 230,161,000 gallons were pumped, which is 9,946,000 gallons less than 1994. During 1995, our pumps recorded 3,772 run days and logged 57,738 run hours. 29,913.79 pounds of Sodium Hexametaphosphate was added to the water as a sequestering agent to prevent iron and manga- nese staining. Rainfall for the year, as recorded at the main pumping station, located at 102 Union Street, was 34.71", which was 14.39" less than 1994 and 10.41" below the average rainfall of 45.12". On April 1, 1995, 17 Corrison Control facilities went on line. These facilities are designed to treat the natural corrosivity of the water by raising the pH, thus making the water less acidic. This brings the Department into compli- ance with the USEPA's requirements, under the Safe Drink- ing Water Act, that the pH of the water as delivered to our customers must be between 7.0 and 7.5. The average pH of the rainfall for 1995, which is the source of all of Yarmouth's water was 4.45. The pH of the water is raised by injecting Potassium Hydroxide into the water distribu- tion system. Since April, the Department has added 643,861.4 pounds of Potassium Hydroxide to the water as it is pumped. During 1995, we repaired 88 water main and water service leaks. This represents a 50% reduction in leaks from the previous two years.During the past six years we have pumped more than 8.8 million gallons per day on average of six times during our peak demand times. For 1995 we exceeded 8.8 million gallons on only one occa- sion when we pumped 8.803 million gallons on July 6, 1995. This is a direct result of the reduction in the number of leaks in that less water is pumped to waste. Department personnel participated in extensive train= ing during 1995, which consisted of Confined Space Safety, Hydrant Maintenance, Road Safety, Excavation Safety, External Corrosion Control for water mains and Water Utility Operational Safety. This training is especially developed for water suppliers by the New England Water Works As- sociation. The Department continues with it many programs, which include Geographic Information System (GIS) map- ping of the distribution system; inspection and test of cross connection control devices; annual inspection and main- tenance of all hydrants; regular equipment maintenance and pumping station performance testing to ensure effi- ciency. Some 1,300 water meters have been replaced under our meter replacement program which replaces older, less accurate meters with electronically read meters. This is done to reduce reading errors and reading time. As of 7/1/95, the Board of Selectmen formally adopted new water rates. The new rates reflect a 45% reduction in the quarterly charge to the average customer. The new rates also eliminate the 40,000 gallon water allowance. This means that all water consumed will be billed from the first 1,000 gallons. The reasons for eliminating the 40,000- gallonallowance are twofold. First to promote water con- servation and secondly to establish a fair and equitable rate whereby our customers are billed only for the water they use. The new water rates were implemented to more accurately reflect the actual operating costs of the Depart- ment. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the professionalism, dedication and hard work by the employ- ees of the Yarmouth Water Department. I would also like to thank all Departments and Agencies of the Town and the citizens of Yarmouth for their support and assistance during 1995. Yarmouth Water Department Relocation Committee members who served during 1995 are Jack Rhynd, Chair-, man, Richard A. Crowley, Arthur Connelly, Margaret Woods, A and Mark Galkowski. Their terms expire upon completion of.. their charge from the Board of Selectmen to find a site for new Water Department facility. 157 OTHER COMMITTEES AND DEPARTMENTS Report of the Department of the Barnstable County Health and the Environment This past fiscal year has been a busy and productive year for the Barnstable County Department of Health & the Environment. A new Prostate Cancer Screening Pro- gram was funded by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to address the high cancer rates which con- tinue to affect Cape Cod residents. Of the 10 towns with the highest prostate cancer rates in Massachusetts, 7 of those towns are on Cape Cod. Ongoing programs in the areas of Environmental Health, Water Quality Testing Laboratory, Tobacco Con- trol and Wampanoag Chronic Disease Prevention Program are directed towards protecting public health from envi- ronmental and lifestyle risk factors. A new trend in envi- ronmental health services has been the unexpected in- crease in town requests for assistance in administering state and local sanitary codes, particularly subsurface sew- age disposal systems (Title 5). Dramatic changes in the Title 5 sanitary code along with high profile media atten- tion has created intense demands by the public for soil percolation tests and Title 5 site plan review. Environmen- tal staff have responded well to these increased service demands while maintaining regional environmental pro- grams such as management of underground fuel tanks, groundwater impact surveillance at landfills, hazardous materials management, research on alternative septic sys- tems, Wellfleet Harbor water quality protection,etc. The Cape Cod Regional Tobacco Control Program is now in its second year of operation through a grant from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. Under the effective leadership of Program Director Holly O'Brien, the program has evolved from start-up to a high profile regional organization overseen by 17 Town Boards of Health on Cape Cod, Wareham and Nantucket. Staff have been kept exceptionally busy this past year attending Board of Health hearings on proposed Tobacco Control regula- tions as well as offering health education and cessation programs to the general public. Cigarette smoking is the leading cause of preventable death and disease in Mas- sachusetts accounting for over 11,000 deaths among resi- dents aged 35 and over in 1988. The Department continues to be active with efforts to study the high cancer rates on Cape Cod, serving on the Cape Breast Cancer (Silent Spring) Committee, Agency for Toxic Substance Disease Registry Upper Cape Can - 158 cer Incidence Study and as new member of the Massa- chusetts Cancer Registry Board of Directors. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH As the population of Barnstable County continues to grow, the role of the Department continues to change to meet shifting needs of local Boards of Health. Each of the staff has developed specialized services in response to the local and regional needs. Public health issues, such as the spread of rabies, environmental exposure of chil- dren to lead through lead paint, environmental exposure to hazardous materials in the home and work place are being addressed in specific programs described below. In addition, the Department supplies technical expertise in environmental areas such as underground fuel storage tanks, hazardous materials management, marine pollution, on site septic systems and their alternative technologies, groundwater monitoring near landfills, protection of water supplies and others. The overall goal of the environmen- tal programs of the department is pollution prevention. As the years pass, our primary emphasis will remain on pro- viding hands-on assistance to local Boards of Health deal- ing with the myriad of public health and environmental is- sues. TITLE 5 AND ALTERNATIVE SEPTIC SYSTEMS Onsite sewage disposal remains a key issue for lo- cal boards of health. As noted, revisions to the regulation ("Title 5") have challenged many local boards to review and permit septic systems in an environmentally respon- sible manner. BCDHE has two initiatives that assist local Boards in this area. The Alternative Septic System Initia- tive, funded in part by the Massachusetts Bays Program, continues to supply Boards of Health with the most up-to- date information on septic systems that provide better treat- ment than the standard Title 5 system. By publishing regu- lar newsletters and performance ratings of various sys- tems, local Boards are able to find the best fit for various situations. This effort has been supplemented by our abil• ity to install and monitor a variety of alternative septic sys• tems and report on their performance. This past year, the Department has entered a partnership with Dr. Brian HoweE of Woods Hole Oceanographic and the Buzzards Ba} Project to secure funding for an Environmental Technol ogy Initiative project. This project, funded at over $450,000 will be to design, construct and operate a testing facility for alternative onsite septic systems. LEAD POISONING PREVENTION PROGRAM The Cape and Islands Lead Poisoning Prevention Program continued to serve Barnstable, Nantucket and Dukes Counties with environmental and educational ac- tivities during fiscal year 1995. Early in the fiscal year much time was spent conducting environmental follow up for lead poisoned children. This past fiscal year saw the number sof lead poisonings in Barnstable County rise from 5 to 6 as ,compared to fiscal year 1994. This year also saw one lead poisoning in Dukes County. It was the first case iden- tified there since the inception of this program in 1991. d:• Fiscal Year 1995 also saw an increase in the number 'of investigations into improper inspections by lead paint inspectors in the private sector. Follow-up action resulted in this department and the Massachusetts Department of Public Health auditing these individuals to assist them with correction if necessary in their inspection technique. C RABIES PREVENTION The Mid Atlantic Strain of Raccoon Rabies has been creating havoc with public health departments across Mas- sachusetts. By the end of Fiscal Year 1995 all counties in the Commonwealth with the exception of Barnstable, Nan- tucket and Dukes have had animals test positive for the rabies virus. With this epizootic moving closer to Cape Cod, this department and the Rabies Task Force of Cape Cod have increased their efforts to provide information to the community about protecting themselves, their families, and their pets from this dreaded disease. Public service announcements, interviews with the local press and re- gional health fairs have been used to explain to Cape Dodders how important it is to have their dogs and cats iaccinated against rabies; to avoid wildlife; to avoid feed - ng pets outside; to seal areas on houses where wildlife nay enter; and to secure lids on trash cans as ways to )revent rabies from affecting them. With the proximity of his outbreak to the bridges, these efforts can only increase n FY 1996. The best way to protect Cape Codders from rabies vould be to prevent it from coming on to Cape Cod in the first place. The Barnstable County Department of Health tnd the Environment along with Tufts University School of oeterinary Medicine and the Massachusetts Department ,f Public Health are attempting to do just that by using an ral vaccine barrier. Since the fall of 1993, the Oral Vac- ine Project has distributed vaccine laden baits by car, foot nd helicopter over an extensive area around the Cape ;od Canal. The purpose of this project is to immunize the rildlife in this area to form a barrier of vaccinated animals 'hich will be used in conjunction with the limited access rildlife has over the Cape Cod Canal to prevent the dis- ase from making it on to Cape Cod. Four baitings have taken place in the towns of Bourne and Sandwich. The two most recent baitings have also included parts of Wareham and Plymouth. Statistics to date show over 60% of the wild animals trapped in the baiting zone have eaten this vaccine. LANDFILL PROGRAM Fiscal Year 1995 was the first full fiscal year where all fifteen towns in Barnstable County have used some or all of the services of the Barnstable County Department of Health and the Environment's Landfill Water Quality Moni- toring Program. The purpose of thisiprogram is to assist the towns with comprehensive environmental monitoring around their municipal landfill through groundwater sample collection, sample analyses, data interpolation, and data management. Each town involved with the program re- quests a varying degree of services. The one service that all fifteen of the towns heavily utilize is the laboratory analy- sis. 159 MERCURY RECYCLING PROGRAM The Department applied for and received initial and extension grants from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to design, develop and imple- ment a community-based mercury thermostats recycling program. The program will be launched prior to Decem- ber 1995 as a model pilot project, operating under the di- rection of the Massachusetts Department of Environmen- tal Protection (DEP). HVAC contractors, electricians and homeowners will be able to bring used thermostats to vari- ous wholesale suppliers, retail points -of -purchase and household hazardous waste collection sites to be tempo- rarily stored, consolidates and then transported off Cape to a recycling facility. Officials at the Executive Office of Environmental Affairs (EOEA) have requested we expand the program to include batteries and fluorescent bulbs. If funded, the Barnstable County Department of Health & the Environment would operate the first comprehensive mercury -containing waste product recycling system imple- mented on a regional basis in Massachusetts. WATER QUALITY TESTING LABORATORY The laboratory has been working with the Cape Wa- ter Departments to try and find a solution to the seemingly more frequent occurrences of coliform bacteria in their dis- tribution systems. In conjunction with the environmental staff, on-site inspections of water storage tanks, bacterial analysis of sediments within the tanks, and testing of wa- ter pH levels for bacterial survivability were performed to answer some of the questions. Beyond the special coliform analyses, the laboratory continued to support the water departments by analyzing as much of their routine moni- toring requirements as possible. These analyses include monthly and bi-weekly bacteriological sampling, the yearly volatile organic analysis, lead and copper analysis, and the annual general chemistry analysis. NATIVE AMERICAN WAMPANOAG PROSTATE CANCER SCREENING PROGRAM Funded late in FY 95 by the Massachusetts Depart- ment of Public Health, the Prostate Cancer Screening Pro- gram will be managed by Wampanoag Chronic Disease Prevention Program Director, Emma-jo Mills Brennan. The program will target men at highest risk for prostate cancer including Native Americans, African Americans and other men of color over the age of 40, low-income men and those with no insurance, men with a family history of prostate cancer, and men over the age of 50. Medical screening for up to 150 eligible men will be provided through a con- tract with the Cape Cod Hospital, and coordination of case management and referral by Wampanoag Chronic Disease Prevention staff. It is anticipated that this grant will be funded over a 5 year period. CAPE COD REGIONAL TOBACCO CONTROL PROGRAM The Cape Cod Regional Tobacco Control Program (CCRTCP) began its second year as a grant under the Barnstable County Department of Health & the Environ- ment (BCDHE) on July 1, 1994. The CCRTCP is part of a statewide effort to develop an aggressive educational and regulatory program to decrease the use of the tobacco products. The grant was funded at $264,811 for FY 95, a 12% reduction from FY 94. The reduction in funds re- sulted from actions by the State Legislature to allocate ciga- rette tax revenues to other areas of prevention, resulting in decreased funds available to the Massachusetts De- partment of Public Health (MDPH) Tobacco Control Pro- gram. The grant provides funding to conduct a highly vis- ible health education program on the hazards of tobacco use, through the establishment of community programs and policies. The funds enable staff (a Program Director, three Health Educators and a Program Secretary) to reach as many residents of the 17 towns as possible through direct contact with all segments of the community as well as through media coverage, with the assistance of a pro- fessional advertising agency. CCRTCP sponsored various activities for youth dur- ing FY 95. Several programs were provided at Camp 132 (Hyannis), Camp Lyndon (Sandwich), The Children's Mu- seum (Falmouth) and at Cape Cod Child Development (Hyannis). Bob Bigelow, a former Celtics player who rep- resents the MDPH and the Massachusetts Interscholastic 160 Athletic Association, spoke to children at eight schools Capewide about the dangers of smokeless tobacco. In January 1995, CCRTCP sponsored a general fo- rum called "Clean the Air". The forum presented Patrick Reynolds, grandson of R.J. Reynolds. and founder of Citi- zens for a Smokefree America. Mr. Reynolds explained what he knows about the multi -billion dollar tobacco in- dustry that has made him angry enough to speak out pub- licly and his personal history of how his family feels about his work. In April, David Goerlitz, former Winston model, spoke to over 200 students at the Nauset Middle School about how tobacco companies advertise to young people to encourage them to begin smoking. Also, in conjunction with the Cape & Islands Partnership to Reduce Substance Abuse and the Cape Cod Crusaders Soccer Team, CCRTCP sponsored "The Crusade for Health", a campaign aimed at stopping the use of tobacco products and inhal- ants. The program is emceed by Chris Barnes, News Di- rector of PIXY - 103 FM. To date, it has successfully been presented to over 2,800 Middle School children on Cape Cod and the program will continue into Fall and Winter 1995. Dr. Gregory Connolly, Director of the MTCP was the guest speaker at the Barnstable County Associated Boards of Health Meeting, and Dr. Connolly reviewed the dangers of tobacco and how the industry markets to children. In conjunction with the Boards of Health Annual Meeting and celebration of the Great American Smokeout, a press con- ference was held the evening of November 16 to intro- duce the first draft of the Proposed Regulations on Prohi- bition of Smoking in Public Places. Developed by a Sub- committee of the Advisory Panel, the Proposed Regula- tions were distributed to the public for review and com- ment. Multiple discussions/meetings were held with mem- bers of local Chambers of Commerce, the Cape Cod Char- ter of the Massachusetts Restaurant Association, Boards of Health, representatives of business affected by the pro- posed regulations and other community leaders. Since tourism is the major industry on Cape Cod, all food ser- vice establishments and bars on Cape Cod, Nantucket and Wareham received an information packet regarding sec- ondhand smoke, litigation and environmental tobacco smoke, and the economic impact of going smoke-free. Public hearings were held in 12 of the 17 towns in the region by March 1995, to receive input on the proposed regulations. The majority of those from the general corn- munity who spoke at the public hearings expressed sup- port for 100% smoke-free public places, removal of vend- ing machines, restrictions on self-service tobacco displays and the initiation of smoke-free workplaces. However, many food service establishments and bars expressed feat that these Proposed Regulations would result in loss 01 business and requested that a compromise position or variance procedure be included. Smoke-free workplaces, removal of vending machines and restrictions on self-ser- vice tobacco displays had little or no resistance from the business community. During March and early April 1995, the Subcommit- tee met to review suggestions received at public hearings over the previous five months. Proposed changes were reviewed and a second draft of the Proposed Regulations were completed and released to the public in mid-April. The major change to the original draft was the inclusion of a variance procedure for restaurants and bars, through the year 2000. At that time, all variances would be void and all enclosed public places would be smoke-free. After further review by the Committee, establishments that in- stalled ventilation would be considered in compliance with the regulations. On January 1, 1995, the CCRTCP staff introduced a smoking cessation curriculum to the public. The curricu- lum, "No Butts About It", which helps smokers to quit smok- ing while monitoring weight gains and dealing with stress levels, was developed by the CCRTCP staff and is free of charge to all residents of Cape Cod, Nantucket, and Wareham. This program is offered in conjunction with other programs on Cape Cod to provide alternatives to residents needing assistance when trying to quit smoking. Staff have also been working with local tobacco re- tailers and D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) programs. Merchant education packets have been pro- vided to many retailers, in conjunction with some formal instruction, outlining State laws regarding tobacco sales to minors and how to educate and monitor employees. I wish to thank the employees of the Barnstable County Department of Health & the Environment for their excellent performance in making FY 95 a very productive year Respectfully submitted, Stetson R. Hall County Health Officer 161 Report of the Cablevision Advisory Committee During the last three months of 1995 Yarmouth Se- lectmen made six new appointments to the Cablevision Advisory Committee. The new members are: Lawrence Camerlengo, Gerald Garnick, Louis Grimaldi, Bruce Millen, Jeffrey Peden, Donald Thompson. The Committee has had two meetings, with another scheduled for January 8. Additional meetings are planned for April, August and December. At one or more of these meetings the general public will be invited, as publicity will be generated for same. The purpose of the Committee will be to interact with TCI Cablevision of Cape Cod (or successor) on behalf of Cablevision subscribers in Yarmouth. The Committtee welcomes suggestions and com- ments from Cablevision subscribers, and they are asked to direct them to the Committee, in care of Town Hall. The current contract between the Town and TCI is scheduled to expire October 23, 1999. The "window" for discussion for consideration of a new, or renewed, con- tract begins October 1996. Respectfully submitted, Donald W. Thompson, Chairman Report of the Yarmouth Representative to the Cape Cod Commission -The Cape Cod Commission is a regional land use planning and regulatory agency created by an Act of the Massachusetts General Court in 1990. The Commission reviews projects which present regional issues identified in the Act, including water quality traffic flow, historic val- ues, affordable housing, open space, natural resources and economic development. 'The Cape Cod Commission consists of 19 members, 1 from each of the 15 towns in Barnstable County, plus a minority member, a native American member, a County Commissioner, and a non-voting member named by the Governor. A brief summary of the Commission's activity on be- half of Yarmouth during 1995 follows: Regional efforts of benefit to Yarmouth The County HOME Consortium received $619,000 in affordable housing funds from the Department of Hous- ing and Urban Development. First-time homebuyers are receiving down payment/closing cost assistance; low-in- come existing homeowners are being provided with rehab loans, and very -low-income tenants at risk of becoming homeless are receiving rental assistance. The Consortium provided rental rehabilitation loans to special needs de- velopment projects in Yarmouth, Provincetown. Falmouth, Barnstable and Dennis. To date, these funds have assisted approximately 66 households and by project completion, an anticipated 120 households will be served. As part of the Sagamore Lens Project, which relates land use to water supply protection for six towns, including Yarmouth, the Commission created an educational ground- water poster highlighting land use in the towns of Bourne, Falmouth, Mashpee, Sandwich, Barnstable, and Yarmouth. Other Water Resources efforts included monitoring the MWRA outfall project, mapping coastal embayments and identifying potential water resource areas. Under the category of growth management is a docu- ment in progress which will guide towns wishing to use impact fees - contributions from new development which go to pay for new or expanded facilities such as schools or sewers. Cape Cod Pathways had another successful year, forging links to connect all 15 towns and conducting a Walking Weekend in the fall and CapeWalk in June. 162 The Commission began working with the Town of Yarmouth on revitalization of a 5.5 -mile corridor along Route 28 in Yarmouth. The Commission is providing as- sistance with design issues, open space protection, land use, zoning, and transportation improvements. Transportation programs in 1995 also include bicycle, path planning and identifying local road projects for fund- ing through the Transportation Improvement Programa Waste Management initiatives included helping Towns and the state Department of Environmental Protection in the areas of marketing recyclables, construction and demoli- tion waste, landfill capping and household hazardous waste collections. Staff also created a national -award-winning. Corridor Management Plan for Route 6A. Helping to promote tourism which complements the Cape's best features were the Second Annual Cape Cod. Maritime Week and Third Annual Cape Cod Heritage Week. During 1995 a Heritage Discovery Network database of attractions and events was created and set up at cham- bers of commerce. Special efforts within Yarmouth The Commission helped with the town's Local Com- prehensive Plan, conducting a land use/design and trans- portation analysis of the Route 28 corridor. The Commis- sion also provided technical assistance to the Yarmouth Fair Housing Committee in its efforts to create a non-profit, corporation. The Commission provided funds for a flushing study of the Upper Bass River and also helped the town obtain, funds for a summer trolley service and develop alterna- tives for better parking. Respectfully submitted, Thomas J. Broidrick, Jr. Yarmouth Representative Cape Cod Commission ��i Report of the Cape Cod Regional Technical High School District June 1995 marked the completion of twenty years of vocationial technical education at Cape Cod Regional Tech- nical High School. We would like to express our gratitude to the consortium members representing the towns in the district, District Superintendents and their staff members, School Committee members, and our faculty and staff, for their dedication and expertise during our first twenty years. We also extend the appreciation of Cape Cod Tech to the members of the communitites in our district who afforded us the opportunity to be of service. Many major projects were completed for towns in the district saving the taxpayers many thousands of dollars, providing our students the opportunity to refine their skills, and ultimately instilling pride in their accomplishments. In keeping with our objective to research and offer outstanding educational programs to our school popula- tion, a new Dental Assistant Program has been established and opened in September 1995 for eleventh and twelfth grade students. We are excited about this new venture and students in the program began their training in a new dental lab which was completed during the summer. Our Distributive Education Program has been relo- cated and the new store is in operation and open to the public during certain school hours. Another major project was relocating our library, and our students are now af- forded a new library media center equipped with the latest. technology, enabling them to both increase their knowl- edge and advance their computer skills. Cape Cod Tech was pleased to enter into a license agreement with Cape Cod Child Development Program, Inc., to use a portion of the school facilities for a Head Start Program. The Head Start Program is also used as a training tool for students in our Early Childhood Develop- ment Program, thus expanding their education in this area. Community Education and Training Programs devel- oped and managed in excess of $635,000 derived from Grants, Tuitions, and Fees, which was expanded in ser- vices, equipment, and resources for the students of Cape Cod Tech and the youth and adult members of our send- ing towns, including summer programs. Cape Cod Tech continues to remain open on a year-round basis to serve the community. This summer more than 320 children and adults from the District towns attended programs includ- ing Summer Youth Employment Training, Exploratory Pro- gram for 6th - 8th graders, County Life Skills, Adult Educa- tion, and Pregnant and Parenting Teens. 163 Ten (10) Cape Cod Tech students were honored for their academic achievements by the National Vocationial- Technical Honor Society. Scholarships and toolships amounting to $79,501 were awarded to our graduates. Seventeen (17) students received "on-the-job" training through our Cooperative Education Program which is spon- sored jointly between Cape Cod Tech and employers Capewide. Those employers who hired our students were generally pleased and praised their abilities and skills. Fif- teen (15) adults coompleted their education in our day school during the 1994-95 school year which is offered on a space -availability basis. Several students were recipients of gold, silver and bronze medals at both state and national competitions sponsored by both VICA (Vocatioinal Industrial Schools of America), and DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America). We thank you for your support of vocational techni- cal education which is a vital commitment, teaching stu- dents a good work ethic and a valuable vocation enabling them to become contributing members of society. Robert Farson Jerome M.

Respectfully submitted, Kathy Cronin, Co -chairperson Valerie Mitchell, Co -chairperson Lucille Murphy, Treasurer Barbara Monteiro, Secretary Francine Allanbrook Pamela Skirvan Suzanne Packer Mary McDonough Barbara Rockefeller �r Report of the PO+Handicapped Affairs Commission To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the citizens of the Town of Yarmouth: The Commission was contacted by a group of stu- dents from Cape Cod Community College. They put to- gether a team to make a Handicapped Access Pamphlet of Yarmouth. Their booklet is available at the Chamber of Commerce. The Yarmouth Library has requested assistance to make the Library accessible for handicapped residents. Mr. Trevor Goodell met with ADA Monitor Chairman to in- spect blueprints of the historical building for compliance with the limits to what could be done, the most practical adaptation was implemented. It would have to be approved by the Historical Society for aesthetic appearance on Rt. 6A. Lillian Morris went to presentations of the adaptations of historical sites in different states of the country. It has been in discussion that the commission is in need of a larger more practical accessible resource cen- ter. The Commission would be easily available for our citi- zens. A twenty year projected plan called "Visions" spear- headed by Gloria Smith and David Kellog sought out ideas from Yarmouth residents to visualize what Yarmouth should be like in twenty years. Lillian Morris submitted her ideas of what the town should be like as a disabled resident. A severe shortage of subsidized housing for disabled residents is an ongoing problem. There is a company called the "Home Store" that specifically builds a wide variety of homes specifically designed for people with a disability seeking to build their own home at affordable prices. Also, several devices are available from different companies to adapt existing homes. For more information, contact Lillian Morris. AT95'EXPO in Boston was attended by Ms. Morris and is recommended for anyone interested in the latest technological devices. Bob Goodek of the pennysaver newspaper helped design the evacuation flyer that was distributed to every home the last week in May. Please keep this paper for emergencies. 165 We wish to commend the town administration and its agencies for the commitment to meeting the needs of our handicapped citizens. Respectfully submitted, Lillian A. Morris - Chairman Lillian Morris — Since Beginning Mary Collard — Since 1993 Mary Zepernick — Since 1995 Bruce Millen — Since 1995 Lydia Pender — Since 1995 Report of the Housing Authority To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and The Citizens of Yarmouth: The Yarmouth Housing Authority is a corporate body politic authorized by and operated under Chapter 121B of the Massachusetts General Laws as amended, known as the Housing and Urban Renewal Law. It was incorporated in 1960 and is governed by a five -member Board of Com- missioners. Marilyn E. Tanner is the Executive Director and is responsible for the daily administration of the Au- thority. The Authority's office is located at Long Pond Plaza, South Yarmouth. Regular meetings of the Board of Com- missioners are held the first Monday of the month at 7:30 A.M. at the office. The Authority was organized at its An- nual Meeting in May 1995 as follows: Name David L. Hautanen Allison Cook Maureen C. Allen Robert H. Lindquist Gwendolyn L. Gilbert Title Chairman Vice -Chairman Treasurer Ass't. Treasurer State Appointee Term Expires April, 1997 April, 1996 April, 1999 April, 1996 May, 1998 The Agency served more than five hundred low in- come families, elderly and special needs clients and their dependents during 1995. Two developments are owned by the Authority: Long Pond Plaza, 40 apartments prima- rily for clients 60 and older; and Visions, a partnership home for teen mothers. The home is operated by a non-profit organization under contract to the Massachusetts Depart- ment of Social Services. As so few units of housing stock are set aside for low income individuals, the community is far short of its statutory obligation to provide a reserve of permanent, affordable housing units for lower income in- dividuals. Programmatic changes to federal tenant -based rental assistance were regulated in 1995. As a result of Con- gressional purging, the Section 8 Certificate and Voucher Programs are expected to merge and to sustain deep fund- ing cuts within fiscal '96. It is anticipated that fair market rents (FMR's) will decline from the 45th to the 40th per- centile which will further limit housing accessibility to pro- gram participants. In spite of the modifications to Section 8 the programs remain a stable housing resource. On May 1, 1995, Yarmouth Housing Authority opened its Section 8 wait lists for the first time in several years. Four other Cape Cod authorities opened list simultaneously. In an overwhelming demonstration of the need for local affordable housing, Yarmouth received the record number 166 of 1,450 applications within one week, although only three Certificates were available. The agency was forced to close its lists May 22, 1995. The Massachusetts Rental Voucher Program (MRVP state rental assistance) provided assistance to nearly 200 elderly, families and disabled individuals in Yarmouth dur- ing 1995. The total number of Vouchers continued to de- cline as they are a non-renewable resource. There is a growing belief that this once effective program will be phased out by the legislature within a few years. Of great significance to Yarmouth and all other hous- ing authorities in the Commonwealth was the passage of the Elderly/Disabled Housing Bill late in 1995. Among its other provisions the bill lowers the age of (senior) eligibil- ity to 60 which parallels federal regulations. It restricts the number of non -elderly disabled parties in c.667 develop- ment to 13.5 per cent at our site and legislates strict eligi- bility regulations which were formerly prohibited. The Housing Authority was awarded a moderniza- tion grant in 1994 to assist us in making safety improve- ments and to comply with ADA regulations. To date no funds have been released. The state has re-evaluated our need and now proposes that our office addition planned for 1991 should be constructed. With the assistance of Town Ad- ministrator Robert Lawton, Jr., Town Planner David Kellogg, a generous and far-sighted Fair Housing Committee and an infusion of block grant funding, this may become a re- ality next year. The Authority gratefully acknowledges the many cour- tesies afforded us by members of many Town departments. Special thanks to Town Administrator Bob Lawton, Judy Daigneault and support staff; Town Planner Dave Kellogg and Jeanne Bullock; Health Officer Bruce Murphy and Housing Inspector Brian Heaslip; Deputy Fire Chief Bill Greene; Assistant Town Clerk Jane Hasting; and Sanita- tion Chief Peter Homer. Their assistance contributes to a smoother course for all at Long Pond Plaza. Although construction funds for our approved new developments continue frozen, our dedicated Commission- ers are to be commended. They continue to investigate other avenues to provide the community with an increased affordable housing supply. A sincere thank you to housing authority staff members Lois Steele, Lynn Taylor, Jacqueline Caldwell, Dawn Bono, and Ralph Lovejoy. They really can do "more with less." Respectfully submitted, Marilyn E. Tanner, Executive Director 92r Bruce D. Norling, CPA, P.C. INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT - To the School Committee Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District I have audited the general purpose financial statements of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, as of June 30, 1995, and for the year then ended. These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District's management. My responsibility is to express and opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the provisions of Office of Management and Budget Circular A-128, Audits of State and Local Governments. Those standards and OMB Circular A-128 require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. The District prepares its general purpose financial statements using accounting principles which are in conformity with the Uniform Municipal Accounting System promulgated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of. Revenue. As described in Note 2, these accounting principles differ in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the area of accounting for fixed assets. The effects of this difference on the accompanying general purpose financial statements have not been quantified. In my opinion, except for the effects on the general purpose financial statements of the item described in the third paragraph, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,' the financial position of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, as of June 30, 1995, and the result of its operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accounting policies of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District (the School District) as reflected in the accompanying financial statements for the year ended June 30, 1995 conform to generally accepted accounting principles for local government units except as indicated hereinafter. The more significant accounting policies of the School District are summarized below: Fund Accounting For reporting purposes, the financial activities of the School District are accounted for through the use of various funds. Each fund is a separate accounting entity with self -balancing accounts. The following types of funds are used by the School District: General Fund - to account for all financial activities of the School District, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Most revenues and expenditures of a general operational nature are accounted for in this fund. Special Revenue Funds - to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. Trust Funds - to account for assets held by the School District in a trustee capacity. Trust funds are classified as expendable or nonexpendable depending on whether the principal portion of the fund balance may be expended, or whether only investment income may be used. Capital Protects - These funds account for major capital improvements which are finanded from the School District's general obligation bond issues or through other special sources. B) Basis of Accounting The modified accrual method of accounting is used for all of the School District's funds. Under the modified accrual method, revenues are recorded when susceptible to accrual (i.e., measurable and available to finance the School District's operations) and expenditures are recorded when the liability is incurred. 172 C) Fixed Assets Property, plant and equipment acquired or constructed for general operational services are recorded as expenditures. Generally accepted accounting principles require that such assets be accounted for in a "general fixed assets group of accounts". The School District does not maintain such an account group. D) Budgetary Data General Budget Policies The Regional District School Committee annually determines the amount to be raised (after deducting the amount of anticipated revenue the district expects to receive) to maintain and operate the School District during the next fiscal year and apportions the amount among the member towns in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The amounts apportioned to each town is certified by the regional school district treasurer to the treasurers of the towns. Each town appropriates the amounts so certified at the next annual meeting. E) Assets, Liabilities, and Fund Equity Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash balances from all funds, except those required to be segregated by law, are combined to form a consolidation of cash. Cash balances are invested to the extent available and interest earnings are recognized in the General Fund. Certain special revenue funds and fiduciary funds cash are segregated and investment earnings become part of those funds. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first -in, first -out) or market. Inventories in the Special Revenue Funds consist of expendable supplies of the food service program. Cost is recorded as an expenditure at the time of purchase. Inventories are offset by a reserve since they do not constitute available spendable resources. Warrants and Salaries Payable - This represents Fiscal Year 1995 bills/salaries owed by the District and paid during the first 15 days of Fiscal Year 1996. Fund Balance Reserve for Encumbrances - Appropriations that are carried over into the next fiscal year and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities are reported as reservations of fund equity. Fund Balance Reserved for Expenditures - This represents amounts reserved from undesignated fund balance to be reapportioned to reduce the Fiscal Year 1996 assessments to the member Towns. 173 F) Total Columns On Combined Statements - Overview Total columns on the Combined Statements - Overview are captioned "Memorandum Only" to facilitate financial analysis. Data in these columns do not present financial position, results of operations, or changes in financial position in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Neither is such data comparable to consolidation. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of this data. G) Financial Reporting Entity The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, for financial reporting purposes, includes all funds and account groups relevant to the operations of its Schools. The financial statements presented herein do not include agencies which have been formed under applicable state laws as separate and distinct units of government apart from the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. The following governmental units are specifically excluded from the School District's financial statements: Town of Dennis Town of Yarmouth Barnstable County Also, several student activity funds belonging to various student functions and activities have not been included in the accompanying financial statements. At June 30, 1995, these student activity funds comprised of approximately $110,000 maintained in several checking accounts controlled by the School District. 2. Departures From Generally Accepted Accounting Principles The significant departure of the School District's financial statements from generally accepted accounting principles is as follows: - General fixed asset acquisitions are recorded as expenditures and not capitalized in a general fixed asset group of account. 174 3. School District Assessments Under terms of the agreement, as amended, establishing the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, the School District's costs are apportioned and assessments are levied against the towns forming the District. The School District's costs are apportioned as follows: Costs to be Apportioned Basis of Apportionment Principal and interest relating to debt issued subsequent to .July 1, 1975 Special operating costs, princi- pally related to providing evening educational programs Operating costs, by facility, other than Central Office costs Central Office costs 4. Employee Benefit Plans Enrollment of the respective towns Pupil hours of the respective towns relating to such pro- grams Enrollment of the respective towns Total enrollment of the re- spective towns A) Teachers, certain administrative personnel and other professional employees are covered by and must participate in the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement System (MTRS). The School District is not required to contribute to MTRS. MTRS is fully funded by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and by contributions from covered employees. The Commonwealth is required to make acturarially determined contributions that maintain the financial integrity of the System. The amount of the current funding by the Commonwealth is not available. All persons employed on at least a half-time basis, who are covered under a contractual agreement requiring certification by the Board of Education, are eligible and must participate in the MTRS. Under the pension plan, benefits are vested immediately if the employee is under 55 years of age. Participants are eligible to receive a retirement allowance once they have completed 20 years of service or have reached age fifty-five. If participants joined the system after January 1, 1978, they must complete ten years of service before receiving a retirement allowance. 175 Based on the Commonwealth of Massachusetts retirement laws, employees covered by the pension plan must contribute a percentage of their gross earnings up to $30,000, into the pension fund. The percentage is determined by the participants date of entry into the system and their total gross earnings up to $30,000 as follows: Before January 1, 1975 5% January 1, 1975 -December 31, 1983 7% After January 1, 1984 8% Effective January 1, 1989, all participants hired after January 1, 1979 must pay their regular contribution percentage, as outlined above, plus 2% of salary in excess of $30,000. The payroll for teaching staff covered by MTRS for the year ended June 30, 1995 was approximately $13,547,706. B) Non -teaching employees: Substantially all of the School District's non -teaching employees participate in the Barnstable County Retirement Association (the "System"), a multiple -employer public employee retirement system. The payroll for employees covered by the System for the year ended June 30, 1995 was $3,428,658. Substantially all non -teaching employees of the School District not covered by the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement System (see above) are eligible to participate in the System. Under the provisions of this retirement plan, employees contribute certain percentages of their pay: 5% if hired prior to 1975, 7% if hired in 1975 through 1983, and 8% if hired in 1984 and later, and are eligible for retirement benefits after meeting the required age -in-service criteria. Annual retirement benefits, generally, range up to 2.5 times average pay, as defined, times years of creditable service. For employees hired after January 1, 1979, pay in excess of $30,000 a year is not included in arriving at average pay used in determining the amount of the employee's pension, but is included in determining the amount of the employee's required contribution to the plan. In fiscal 1992, the $30,000 salary cap was removed and an additional 2% employee contribution was added on regular pay over $30,000 to employees hired after January 1, 1979. The School District's annual contribution is determined by the State Division of Public Employee Retirement Administration. The System requires funding of accrued pension liabilities actuarially in order to pay the employer normal cost plus amortize the original unfunded actuarial accrued liability by 2027. The contribution requirement for the year ended June 30, 1993 was $656,090 which consisted of $397,254 from the School District and $258,836 from employees. 176 The pension benefit obligation is a standardized disclosure measure of the present value of pension benefits, adjusted for the effects of projected salary increases and step -rate benefits estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date. The measure, which is the actuarial present value of credited projected benefits, is intended to help users assess the System's funding status on a going -concern basis, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when,due, and make comparisons among public employee retirement systems and employers. The System makes separate measurements of assets and pension benefit obligations for individual employers. A summary of the actuarial valuation for the latest date for which information is available follows: Pension benefit obligation Net assets available for benefits (valued at market) Unfunded pension benefit obligation $ Millions (1/1/93) (1/1/93) System as a the School Whole District $217.4 88.2 $129.2 6.4 2.6 3.8 Ten year historical trend information showing the System's progress in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due is not available. In fiscal 1992, the School District elected to establish a funding schedule to amortize the School District's unfunded actuarial liabilities plus normal cost. The normal cost and unfunded actuarial liability are calculated in accordance with the entry age normal actuarial cost method. Amortization of the unfunded actuarial liability is based on a 40 year schedule for unfunded liabilities prior to removal of the $30,000 salary cap, and 15 year amortization of the additional unfunded liability for removal of the salary cap. The annual amortization for each liability is allowed to increase each year by no more than 4.5%. Payments determined under this funding schedule totaled $107,683 for fiscal 1995. Sick Leave Benefit Under terms of the contracts covering employees of the School District, certified employees are entitled to fifteen days of paid sick leave, annually. Unused sick leave may be accumulated indefinitely up to a specified maximum. In the event of death, separation, or retirement of an employee having completed ten years of service, such employee or "the 177 employee's estate" shall be compensated at one-half the current daily short term substitute rate for accumulated sick leave. In the case of those who commenced employment on or after September 1, 1975, accumulated sick leave, subject to such payment, is limited to 135 days. Certain other employees are entitled to similar benefits but shall be compensated at a rate ranging from $2.15 to $2.20 per hour for such accumulated sick leave based on average daily hours worked and are limited to 135 days for payment purposes. Principals and non-union administrative personnel are entitled to 400 days (regardless of employment commencement date) and compensated at 12% of their current daily wage. Such accumulated vested sick leave has been recognized in the accounts of the School District as to the liability at June 30, 1995. Deferred Compensation All permanent School District Employees, either full or part-time, may participate in a deferred Compensation plan. The Plan is a supplemental, long-term retirement savings program for public employees. An insurance company administers the program. The School District does not contribute to the Plan. An employee can defer up to 25% of his/her pre-tax gross pay, not to exceed $7,500, annually, Each employee dictates how his/her deferred wages are invested. An employee cannot withdraw contributions until he/she has attained the age of 59 1/2 years, has terminated employment, or can provide economic hardship The School District is the contractual and beneficial holder of the Plan's assets, but has no authority over how the funds are invested. Deposits and Investments The School District maintains cash deposits that are available for use by all funds. Each fund type's portion of these deposits is reflected on the combined financial statements under the caption "cash" and the interest earnings attributable to each fund type is included under "investment income". State and local statutes place certain limitations on the nature of deposits and investments available to the School District. Deposits (including demand deposits, term deposits and certificates of deposit) in any one financial institution may not exceed certain levels without collateralization by the financial institutions involved. Investments can also be made in securities issued by or unconditionally guaranteed by the U.S. Government or Agencies that have a maturity of less than one year from date of purchase, and repurchase agreements guaranteed by such securities with maturity dates of no more than 90 days from date of purchase. 178 Summary of Deposits with Financial Institutions Deposit Carrying Market Category Category Category Category type value value 1 2 3 4 Bank Accounts $2,852,806 $2,852,806 $ 300,000 $ 2,000 $ - $2,550,806 Category 1 Deposits that are fully insured by FDIC or the Depositors Insurance Fund (DIF); deposits fully collateralized by securities held by the School District or School District's agent and registered in the name of the School District; securities held by the School District or School District's agent and registered in the School District's name.

Long -Term Debt The Schools District's long-term debt issues constitute a pledge of the School District's full faith and credit. Payment is not limited to a particular revenue source. Changes in General Obligation Bonds Payable The following is a summary of bond principal transactions of the School District for the year ended June 30, 1995: Long-term debt, July 1, 1994 $9,154,000 Bonds retired: Station Ave. Elementary Sch (394,000) Wixon (260,000) Notes retired: General Obligation Notes (120,000) Long-term debt, June 30, 1995 $8,380,000 179 The School District's outstanding indebtedness following at June 30, 1995: Fiscal Year Interest of Maturity Rate Bonds: Station Ave. Elementary School Wixon Addition consists of the Principal Outstanding June 30, 1995 2009 4.699%(avg) 2005 7.240%(avg) Notes: Renovations-Erza Baker School 1998 3.66%(avg) Total Long -Term Debt Debt principal and Fiscal Year 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000-2009 interest are payable as follows Bonds 1,096,962 1,054,842 1,012,722 972,942 6,814,797 Notes 133,500 129,300 124,800 $ 5,420,000 2,600,000 8,020,000 360,000 $ 8,380,000 Total 1,230,462 1,184,142 1,137,522 972,942 6,814,797 Total $10,952,265 $387,600 $11,339,865 7. Leased Commitments The School District leases four elementary and two middle schools within the towns of Dennis and Yarmouth, whereby the School District has the use of these facilities through June 30, 2015. Under the terms of the agreements, the School District is responsible for the cost of operation, including utilities and insurance, and maintenance of these facilities. Future minimum rental payments required under operating leases that have remaining noncancellable lease terms in excess of one year as of June 30, 1995, follows: 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 $ 97,170 60,628 60,628 56,760 56,760 $ 31,946 ______ The lease term commitments are dependent upon an annual budget appropriation by the School District. 8. Education Reform Act of 1993 MGL Chapter 70, as amended by the Education Reform Act of 1993, specifically states that local and regional school districts must meet their net school spending. Net school spending is made up of the minimum local contribution and Chapter 70 state aid. The School District appropriated sufficient funds in FY '95 and met the net school spending requirements. 180 The minimum local contribution is computed by the state. The following are the FY '95 Minimum Local Contributions for the School District. Dennis $ 7,586,374 Yarmouth 10,572,313 $18,158,687 This is the minimum each community must contribute to support the net school spending at the School District. Net school spending includes all spending except transportation, debt service, capital and fixed costs. 9. 1996 Budget The School District has authorized a fiscal 1996 operating and debt retirement budget totaling $27,362,155 which will be financed from the following sources: Assessments to member towns Anticipated aid from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Other local sources Utilization of available funds 181 $20,580,531 5,678,764 508,925 593,935 $27,362,155 Report of the License and Permits Office The License & Permits Office issues resident beach and landfill stickers, shellfish licenses, and also renews and issues liquor, entertainment, amusement, Class I and II car dealers licenses and other miscellaneous licenses and permits.

It is composed of five members, one of whom is appointed by the Finance committee. The Board's duties are to review and recommend to the Board of Selectmen: 1. The establishment of policies, procedures and regulations, as it deems necessary for non-union personnel; 2. The appropriate content and format of all exist- ing job descriptions, as well as all new positions based on job content; 3. Suggested changes in the compensation sched- ule for seasonal positions; and, 4. Other related duties as assigned by the Board of Selectmen. Each year the Personnel Board reviews several po- sition reclassification requests, either initiated by the em- ployee of the department manager. In 1995, the Board reviewed the Parks/Cemeteries Foreman's position, reclas- sified a vacant Assistant Health Agent's position to Health Inspector I, classified a new position of Assistant Superin- tendent in the Water Department, reclassified a vacant Engineering Aide I position to a CAD/GIS Technician for the Engineering Department, and classified the position of Police Department Mechanic. Lastly, as directed at the Annual Town Meeting, the position of Town Clerk was also reviewed. In 1995 the Board also reviewed the Miscellaneous Compensation Schedule, which covers seasonal employ- ees, as well as the Personnel Policy Guidelines. After being unsuccessful for four years to obtain the funding necessary for a new Personnel Study (the original one having been written in 1985), this past year saw the much-needed town -wide Personnel Study become a real- ity. This is a Regional Personnel Study developed with the Towns of Brewster, Dennis and Orleans, with the ma- jority of funding coming from an Executive Office of Com- munities and Development grant. The Personnel Boards from the four towns met on two occasions to review docu- ments related to the study, and we were kept abreast of the progress and provided relevant input to the study work- ing group through Joellen Daley. A great deal of thanks goes to Joellen Daley, for dis- covering a funding source, suggesting a regional approach and contacting other towns, writing the lengthy grant ap- plication, developing the specifications, working with the consultant, and devoting numerous hours to this project. The Board feels it now has an up-to-date document and is looking forward to the full implementation of the. Study. b. The Personnel Board meets on the third Wednesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. at the Town Hall. The public is invited to attend the meetings. t,. Respectfully submitted, Betty -Jane Burkhardt, Chairman Paul Cahill Richard Orrin Dee Andrew Hillier John Mullen 9': C" -C 183 Report of the Recycling and Solid Waste Advisory Committee During 1995 the focus of the Recycling and Solid Waste Advisory Committee (RASWAC) was in three ar- eas: (1) Closure of the town landfill, particularly in matters of timing and reuse, (2) Implementation of the state man- dated recycling of plastic materials. (3) The need to pro- vide information and education on recycling and solid waste disposal. RASWAC took an active part in studies of the landfill closure and subsequent reuse. RASWAC evaluated the plans submitted by Camp, Dresser and McKee on the re- arrangement of the solid waste disposal area and made suggestions and comments on matters of traffic flow, drop off accessibility and pay and non -pay areas in the facility. RASWAC has maintained an awareness of the terms and conditions of the consent order developed between the Town of Yarmouth and the State Department Of Environ- mental Protection (DEP) on landfill closure. The Town has agreed to cap the "significant threat" portion of the landfill by October, 1996 and to a final full closure by October, 1988. At the present time the town i9 on schedule but the DEP has not responded to key issues defining the scope of the initial closures, but communications continue. RASWAC is represented on the Landfill Reuse Com- mittee which is monitoring plans for the nine hole golf course and recreation fields. RASWAC has been involved in establishing a means for disposal of Construction and Demolition (C&D) mate- rial. This C&/D has been used to partially fill the areas to be capped but can no longer be used by terms of the con- sent order. This C&D material will now be shipped to a DEP approved disposal site. RASWAC has assisted in establishing a plastics re- cycling program. The DEP has required the recycling of one form of plastic material by the end of 1995. RASWAC met with sources which handle all recycled materials in a co -mingled mode and in December the Town drop area stated accepting metal, glass and all plastic material in a single container. It is then shipped to a private contractor for separation and reuse. The members of RASWAC as- sisted in this initial effort by providing handouts and infor- mation at the drop off area. There is a need for better education in matters of recycling and solid waste disposal. RASWAC has tried to encourage greater recycling in meetings with the Cham- ber of Commerce and Restaurant Association leaders and plans to continue efforts to encourage recycling in the com- mercial area. RASWAC has prepared material describing recycled material and disposable solid waste for handout at the drop off area in order to promote a better under- standing of these matters. RASWAC has also been active in trying to promote a more active recycling program in the D -Y school system. The educational area is one that will have to get more emphasis in the coming year. RASWAC was represented on the Barnstable County Waste Management Committee by Joseph Sarnosky and Leslie Petrie, the Council of SEMASS Communities had Joseph Sarnosky and Robert Angell as representatives. The committee accepted with regret the resignation of Sara Jane Porter and George Morgenroth was appointed as a replacement. Respectfully submitted, Joseph R.

Funds are raised via a voluntary check -off which is enclosed in the Fall property tax bills and, in the past two years, by a Charity Golf Tournament organized by the Green Company of Yarmouthport. This civic -minded Yarmouth company contributed $11,000 to the fund in 1995 and has pledged to match that figure in 1996. We are ex- tremely grateful for their generosity. Applications are completed by any college -bound Yarmouth student who is in need of financial assistance. These applications are reviewed by the five -member Schol- arship Committee which screens the applications for fi- nancial need, academic ahievement, involvement in schooV community activities and any other factors deemed rel- evant by the Committee. The Committee selected the following Yarmouth stu- dents for scholarships in 1995: $500: Beth Kellogg, Rebecca Baum, David Svoboda, Michelle Rebello, Mat- thew Strobl, Derrick Rheaume, Courtney Camerlango; $1,000: Kieran Brenner, Wesley Allanbrook, Karen Phillips, Courtney Garcia, Sarah Wilson, Alex Pendleton, Lindsay Phillbrick, Kathryn Nugent; $1,500: Nicholas Mitrokostas, Melissa Murphy, and Kathryn Tierney. All students displayed a commitment to both their school and community. We wish them well in pursuing their goals. On behalf of all the deserving students who receive these scholarships each year, the Committee wishes to thank each Yarmouth taxpayer who contributed to the Fund as well as the Green Company for their continued gener- osity.

The dis- trict is comprised of four elementary schools, two middle schools and one regional high school. The Regional Committee welcomes all residents to their meetings, held on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month.The Committee is comprised of seven members, four elected from Yarmouth and three elected from Dennis.This year Kenneth Mcguire was elected to serve a three year term from the town of Yarmouth replacing Dr. James Collins. I was re-elected to serve a three year term from the town of Dennis Members serve without monetary compensation, and sub -committees meet regularly to con- sider issues such as curriculum, collective bargaining, safety and transportation. Relieving the pressure of overcrowding in Yarmouth, the new Station Avenue School opened its door in Sep- tember. This school offers state of the art facilities and technological advances that challenge our entire school district. The development of a regional technology plan has provided a vision for all of our schools, preparing D -Y students for the future. Financial pressures have loomed heavily this year as the school committee strives to balance the needs of our children with available resources. Significantly effect- ing the budget are the increase in mandated special edu- cation services for students requiring 1:1 aides, special placements and increased services. We are also now educating children who have survived infancy due to ad- vances in medical technology and children of crack ad- dicted mothers. Social services are in high demand dis- trict -wide as children attempt to cope with societal and fam- ily issues which would be devastating to any of us. In- creased costs are causing the school committee to look at our philosophy and balance it with available resources. Implementation of the Education Reform Act has con- tinued to challenge staff and administration. Fundamental changes are ongoing in curriculum, performance standards for students, elimination of "general tracks",and additional responsibilities for principals as we move toward site-based management. The"foundation budget" for each town re- quires a minimum spending level, or "local effort". The financial commitment of the state is conditioned on this local effort. The school committee wishes to thank the hundreds of volunteers who work within the schools to assist profes- sional staff and provide individual assistance to children. The role of volunteers in the district is invaluable and es- sential to the operation of our schools. We thank the com- munities for their support, and will continue to provide the young people of our communities with the education they need to excel in our changing world. Respectfully submitted, Alice Boyd, Chair REPORT OF DR. MICHAEL D. McCAFFREY SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS October 1, 1995, enrollments showed a minimal change in the number of students compared to a year ago. In Dennis the number declined from 1869 to 1858 students. Yarmouth reflectedan increase from 2683 students to 2689 students. The future, however, would appear to carry en - 186 rollment growth for our towns. Our entering kindergarten class contains 410 students while our grade 12 class con- tains 193 students. Several significant administrative changes have oc- curred in the district. Laurence C. MacArthur, long time principal of the South Yarmouth Elementary School died in August after a lengthy illness. The school committee memorialized him by renaming the South Yarmouth El- ementary School the Laurence C. MacArthur School. Jeanne Carrick, a teacher at the John Simpkins School, was named to succeed Mr. MacArthur. At the Wixon Middle School principal Richard Colby stepped down to return to a teaching position at the high school. Mr. Colby's assis- tant principal, Patricia Fitzimmons, was appointed princi- pal. Frances Meyer retired as principal of the Ezra H. Baker School, and Kevin Depin, assistant principal there, was named to the principalship. In the high school, principal Curtis S. Collins Jr. resigned in June to accept a position as principal of Cohasset High School. His position is be- ing filled temporarily by high school assistant principal Thomas Lemond while a search for a new principal is un- derway. The district has been served well by Laurence MacArthur, Richard Colby, Curtis Collins Jr. and Frances Meyer. Their contributions as thoughtful and visionary lead- ers will be felt for a long time. One of the priorities of the school committee has been improving public relations. Toward that end, school com- mittee meetings are broadcast by volunteers on commu- nity access cable television, a regular newsletter to the community has been started and a resource directory of faculty members willing to speak to local clubs and organi- zations has been developed. In September, 1995 the Station Avenue Elementary School opened its doors for the first time. Enrolling 421 students in kindergarten through grade 5, this facility was built for $6,000,000. It is located at 276 Station Avenue, South Yarmouth on the parcel containing Dennis -Yarmouth High School. We are grateful to the voters of Yarmouth for this modern school which has greatly alleviated the crowd- ing of the other Yarmouth elementary schools. As the population of Dennis and Yarmouth increases, we are slowly becoming a small city rather than the rural communities more often associated with Cape Cod. With these population changes, the schools are changing. There is greater poverty, mobility and diversity. Because of this, educational costs are increasing and our annual budget reflects that growth. We hope that the voters of the district understand our situation and will continue to support the important work of educating the children of our two com- munities. REPORT OF DAVID W. CRELLIN DIRECTOR OF INSTRUCTION This has been a year of intense curriculum review and development in virtually every area of the school pro- gram, grades Pre -K-12. Each monthly meeting of the School Committee's Curriculum Sub -committee features a review of one of the seven frameworks and our response to it. The public is always welcomed at these second Thurs- day of the month meetings, which provide opportunities for questions and answers from all those in attendance. While it is impossible within the compass of this re- port to do justice to all the curriculum initiatives presently underway some of the highlights are as follows. In Math we are in the second year of piloting the Ev- eryday Math program at grades K-5. Last year's six class- room pilot was expanded to thirty classrooms this year. The results so far strongly support adoption of the pro- gram for all classrooms next year though a final decision will not be made until May. In Science, the first eighteen of fifty-four new units are presently being pilot tested and revised for implemen- tation next year. During the summer another third of the units will be written for pilot testing in the second year of a three year program to revise the K-8 science program in accordance with the state frameworks and national stan- dards projects. In Health we are similarly pilot testing two new highly acclaimed curricula, "Actions for Health" and "The Great Body Shop," for prospective use in grades K-5 class- rooms. Plans are to select one of the programs for district wide implementation next year. The Social Studies curriculum is also under intense review. In this case the state frameworks are being used to provide a conceptual approach as opposed to our present topic centered approach to social studies. The frameworks presents a series of six basic concepts, for example "people and environments" and "power and par- ticipation" to be used with all topics in the curriculum. Whether students are studying the Civil War, ancient Egypt, or present day Mexico they would use the concepts to understand their topic more fully. World Languages is the name given by the state frameworks to what was once called "foreign language." More significant than this name change, however, is the framework's mandate for instruction in a second language to begin in the earliest grade levels. We are presently offering instruction to classroom teachers who have vol- unteered, on how to introduce instruction in either French, 187 Spanish or Portuguese to children in all elementary grades. Thirty teachers have chosen to participate in this program. A group of Language Arts teachers is working inten- sively on two important topics. The first is that of teaching children the skills of decoding words and constructing meaning from text as readers and the second is that of assessing and reporting children's growth in literacy, es- pecially reading. Both are efforts to assure that our pro- grams make the very best use of current theory and re- search into reading instruction. As many people know, there are sometimes strong differences among authorities in reading instruction about these issues. At the same time, there is clarity about many aspects of what instruc- tional practice works best for most children. Disentangling the disputed areas from those where there is agreement, and then applying the resulting insights, is a long, involved process. It is an undertaking in which we, like every other school district, will be engaged for a very long time. Finally a team studying the Arts framework has pre- pared a series of recommendations for presentation to the Curriculum Sub -committee regarding both the role of the arts as subjects taught separately during "related arts" blocks and the integration of arts into the regular class- room curriculum. These recommendations have a num- ber of implications for scheduling and resources. As we enter further into the era of state Curriculum Frameworks it is clear that change will be only as effective as local districts make it. We are working very diligently in this district to make the best use possible of the frame- works as resources to help refine and fulfill our vision of an appropriate school program. REPORT OF J. PETER REGAN DIRECTOR OF SPECIAL SERVICES On December 1, 1995, Dennis Yarmouth Regional School District had a total student enrollment of 4,555. On the same date, 505, or 11% of our total student body, were enrolled in some form of special education programming. These figures do not, however, tell the story of the spiral- ing costs of special education today. State and Federal mandates require that special edu- cation students receive their services in inclusive class- rooms with regular education students as much as pos- sible. This means that the population of special education students must be spread out throughout the schools and grades, requiring the assistance of special education aides, teachers, and tutors to deal with the increased variables. The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District agrees with the policy of inclusion and heterogeneity in our classrooms but we also must worry about the increased cost this re- quires. There are a greater number of children enrolled in our schools with serious, even profound, special educa- tion needs. Some of these are children who are surviving the early days of life because of the excellent medical care available in hospital nurseries today. There is also an in- crease in children who have been born with pre -natal ad- diction to harmful drugs. These children require intense special education services, and some, even individual spe- cial education teacher aides. Other costs are seen in an increase in the need of alternative day and residential placements for youngsters, usually of middle or high school age, who are seriously emotionally disturbed. These students are generally in- volved with social service agencies such as the depart- ment of social services, the department of mental health, or the department of youth services. The district is acting responsibly in an attempt to con- trol these spiraling costs by reviewing eligibility guidelines for special education placement with staff and working harder at developing programs of pre -referral intervention. The increased costs we are experiencing here in Dennis - Yarmouth reflect a trend on the Cape, in Massachusetts, and on a national level. This year, as part of our on-going self evaluation policy, our early childhood programs were evaluated. Early childhood refers to programs for 3 and 4 year old, at risk, children. Shirley Smith, our early childhood coordinator, de- serves a commendation for the excellence of this program as do the directors of our private nursery schools who work in cooperation with us. The independent evaluator (who evaluated the District program) notes that, "The program as an entity should be considered a model for early child- hood education...The school committee should be com- mended for their support of this fine program." Programs in speech/language pathology, occupational and physical therapy, and other specialist services will be evaluated next year. As always, we invite community participation through our Parents Advisory Council. Please call 398-7624 for more information. REPORT OF DONALD D. JOHNSON DIRECTOR OF FISCAL AFFAIRS Station Avenue Elementary School The successful opening of the Station Avenue El- ementary School in September 1995 was the single most gratifying achievement of the year. This enormous under- taking, which took 18 months to bring to substantial comple- tion, involved the combined efforts of the staff from the business office, the maintenance department, the food service department, and many others. The school offers the latest in technological develop- ment for instruction and operations. Technology design, specifications and supervision was overseen almost en- tirely by Beverly Capers, District Computer Department Head. This project is not yet to contract specifications. There are still some final construction details to be completed by the architect and the contractor. On December 1, 1995 one sprinkler head in room 106 failed resulting in water damage to equipment and supplies of about $5,200. The district will recover these costs from the contractor since the building is under warranty for one year from July 8, 1995. Completion of public works projects is an extremely time consuming and frustrating experience for the award- ing authorities in this state. We are hopeful that this project will be complete and submitted for audit to the state De- partment of Education by June 1996. The project's overall budget of $6,069,000 has al- most been completely expended. Unfortunately, there are still some needs. The largest and most important is the installation of an underground fuel storage tank which will make the school dual fuel capable. 188 I would like to express my appreciation to all who worked so diligently to bring this project to successful completion. Technology The advent of the "information age" has brought with it an insatiable appetite for technology in education and educational administration. Station Avenue Elementary School is our first attempt to integrate telephone, televi- sion, computer networks with student, teacher and clerical work stations. The district now operates an "on line" li- brary catalogue systems in all schools, administrative net- works in the two middle schools, a large student instruc- tional network in the high school, two mini computer sys- tems for administrative functions and a host of individual Apple computers and personal computers for both instruc- tional and administrative purposes. Each school has at least one instructional computer laboratory. The total num- ber of computers operating in the district exceeds 786 and grows daily. Every school has requested significant expansion of technology in the fiscal 1997 budget. In this light it ap- pears very important that each building develop full time technically proficient staff to maintain installed networks and software. Without "on site" help, technology expan- sion in the district will be extremely slow and ineffective. l� A district wide network to link all buildings would serve the educational and administrative needs of the district well. How this is to be accomplished needs to be studied and a plan needs to be developed to implement such a network. In an attempt to proceed with this development the district became one of 12 school systems in the state involved in a technical assistance pilot program known as Massachu- setts Tech Corp which is supported by the technology in- dustry of our state. Finances Half way through the 1996 fiscal year the district is still facing a budget deficit of about $160,000. This deficit which was over $550,000 at the beginning of the fiscal year has been reduced through the significant efforts of the building principals and department heads. Contrac- tual salary settlements, increased special education costs and new personnel to maintain pupil teacher ratios have all contributed to the creation of this deficit. The current excess and deficiency account of $210,010 will have to be used to offset this deficit unless further savings can be found. Facilities Two exciting cooperative school and town projects started this year. The town of Yarmouth applied for and was granted a Housing and Community Development Act grant for handicapped access to John Simkins School and Laurence C. MacArthur School. This grant will fund the first phase of making these currently inaccessible town fa- cilities accessible to both parent and students. We are grateful to Robert Lawton for his foresight and initiative in securing funding for this important project. However, it needs to be noted that these buildings along with other district buildings need extensive work to make them fully compliant with the American Disabilities Act. Also, through the efforts of the John Simkins School Parent Council and Linda Sears, Recreation Director for the Town of Yarmouth, a new handicapped accessible play- ground facility at the John Simkins School was purchased and erected using grant funds. The district has been awarded a 50% federal energy grant for burner replacements at the Margaret E. Small School and the Laurence C. MacArthur School. The burn- ers in these buildings are the oldest in the district and the least efficient. We hope to combine the grant money with bond improvement money to be able to replace the boilers at the MacArthur school. Personnel The opening of Station Avenue Elementary School and budget constraints caused the district custodial staff- ing to be evaluated. The evaluation was done with the assistance of a consultant from the CO/OP. The net result 189 of this study was the transferring to food service depart- ment the equivalent of two positions and the reduction of one half of a position each at Simpkins school and Station Avenue school. Total savings to the district exceeded $60,000 annually. It is with sadness that I report the passing of John Slattery, payroll clerk for the district. John worked for the district for eight years and provided invaluable stability to the complex district payroll process. Benefits After careful consideration the district decided to self insure its Workers' Compensation program effective July 1, .1995. Administration of the program is done by Cook & Company of Marshfield and Great American Insurance Company reinsures the program to limit the district's liabil- ity. This change resulted in $31,000 savings in fiscal 1996 budget and the potential of even greater savings exists if the safety and awareness programs are well implemented. On May 23, 1995 the district conducted a well at- tended Wellness Fair in the D -Y Regional High School. This effort which was lead by Beverly Haley is an attempt to assist employees in understanding their benefits but also improving the quality of life and lessening the risk of health related problems. Over 200 staff participated in 40 exhib- its, demonstrations and tests. The Cape Cod Municipal Health Group, of which I am now chairman, was able to grant a "premium holiday" to all its members for the third year in a row. Therefore health insurance costs to employees and the district re- mained the same for three consecutive years. The sur- pluses generated in previous years have now been sub- stantially returned to participants and the likelihood of an- other premium holiday is very slim. Future The following are a few of the significant objectives and projects which the business office will be dealing with in 1996. In the area of personnel, the D -Y Secretaries and Aides Association contract expires June 30, 1996. Nego- tiations with this unit are scheduled to commence in Janu- ary 1996. Baker bond projects were put on hold last year as we focused our efforts to opening the new school. This summer should produce, gymnasium renovations, carpet replacements, water pipe replacement and more painting for the Baker school bringing to substantial completion the $600,000 bond issue project started in 1994. We must find ways to improve the technology com- petencies of both teaching and support staff. Computer technology has become an integral part of the work day. Developing and conducting training for staff in technology should be a major effort next year. In October 1995 the school committee took prelimi- nary steps toward approval of $2,250,000 for a renova- tions and improvement bond issue. These funds which would be bonded over five or ten years will provide money to accomplish much needed improvements for district fa- cilities. The planning and approval of this bond issue will occupy a significant portion of this next year. Further refinement and training is needed in site based budgeting and financial management of our schools. Developing and providing training for key administrators and support staff should be done this coming year. Dental insurance claims appear to have stabilized and it may be cost effective to enter into a self insured program. This could be done by the district alone or in cooperation with the CCMHG. We expect to investigate this possibility in 1996. Deregulation of the sale and transportation of elec- tricity and natural gas may provide the district with some opportunities to save some heating costs in the future years. We have just begun to investigate these possibili- ties and will be working with other Cape Cod school dis- tricts to understand the process and study the pros and cons of purchasing natural gas direct from a major gas supplier. Summation Change is constant. My report reflects significant changes in the past year and suggests continued changes in the future. My hope is that we in the business office will be able to provide thoughtful, productive means by which Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District may continue to meet the demands of our evolving community. REPORT OF JOANNE S. LEE FOOD SERVICE COORDINATOR The Food Service Program continued to be self-sup- porting during the 1994-1995 school year. Labor hours remained stable at approximately 150 hours daily with 17 meals being produced per labor hour. The lunch prices remained the same at $1.30 for elementary students and $1.40 for middle school students and $1.50 for high school students. Throughout the 1994-1995 school year, the Food Service Program served an average of 2429 lunches and 202 breakfasts per day with an average 58.4% yearly par- ticipation rate. The average number of students eligible for free or reduced lunch during the 1994-95 school year was 1077 which represents 25.2% of the entire enrollment. Currently the number of eligible students is 1045 (24.7%). The cost of operating the Food Service Program dur- ing the 1994-1995 school year were distributed as follows: payroll was 45.8% of the budget; food purchases accounted for 35.3%; paper supplies were 2.2%; cleaning supplies were .5%; U.S.D.A Commodities were 5.8%; and all other expenses accounted for 7.9%. The program made a net profit of 2.5%. We continued our food service satellite program in which bulk hot lunches are prepared at the Mattacheese Middle School and are distributed to the M.E. Small, John Simpkins, L.C. MacArthur and Station Avenue elementary schools. I would like to thank our food service staff through whose efforts we have been able to provide our students with healthy satisfying meals while maintaining costs at a reasonable level. REPORT OF THOMAS A. LEMOND, JR., PRINCIPAL DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL During 1995, students at Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School continued to enjoy academic success. Eighty percent of the senior class entered college: fifty-eight per- cent will attend four year colleges, twenty percent two year colleges; three percent entered the military; fourteen per- cent joined the work force and seven percent were unde- cided regarding future plans. Eighty-six percent of the class of 1995 took the SAT, an increase of twelve percent over the class of 1994 and fourteen percent over the class of 1993. After several years of declining enrollment, the high school population stabilized at circa 1,100. Beginning in the 1996-97 school year enrollment will steadily increase, a trend that will continue into the twenty-first century. 190 The new semester -based extended period schedule in grades 10-12 continued to provide myriad opportunities for student acceleration in specific academic disciplines with approximately 130 students completing more than one course, in mathematics and foreign language, respectively. Grade nine teams provided incoming freshmen with a per- sonalized experience as they made the transition from middle to high school. The success and uniqueness of D - Y's structure continued to attract interest throughout New England as forty -plus schools sent representatives to learn about D -Y programs. In addition, D -Y staff shared their expertise by conducting workshops at state and regional professional conferences. Beginning in September, the school day was length- ened in preparation for the time and learning requirements accompanying the Massachusetts Education Reform Act of. 1993. These additional minutes for instruction and the requirements of D -Y's new schedule have resulted in quali- tatively stronger academic schedules for students. Con- comitantly, more students are challenging themselves by selecting the school's most rigorous courses. In particu- lar, this is reflected in a significant increase in enrollment in advanced placement courses. Successful completion of AP courses, as measured by a national exam, enable students either to earn college credit or to achieve ad- vanced standing. More computer-based learning was incorporated into classroom instruction thus continuing the expansion and integration of technology. The library and media center also extended its technological capabilities as well as its services to students. Most departments acquired a data line and established an Internet account this year. Finally, hardware and software in the school's two computer labs were upgraded thereby enabling the Information Systems Management department to enlarge its program through development of the Computer Art and Design course. Curriculum and instruction endeavors focused on the Massachusetts curriculum frameworks and professional development. The latter was characterized by staff par- ticipation in a broad variety of growth and improvement experiences. D - Y staff not only participated in profes- sional development; in many instances they led the way for their state and regional peers. Each department be- gan an examination of the draft curriculum frameworks that are an integral part of the 1993 Education Reform Act. This process will require considerable time for the school to modify and adapt its curricula to the frameworks. D -Y continued to provide students with multifarious opportunities for co -curricular and extra -curricular involve- ment. Our interscholastic athletic teams enjoyed much success. In addition, numerous students participated in a varied intramural athletic program. The Dolphins won At- lantic Coast League championships in field hockey, girls' track and girls' cross-country. In addition to league cham- pions, teams that participated in post -season tournament competition included the following: baseball, boys' bas- ketball, boys' golf and girls' basketball. Both boys' and girls' cross-country qualified for the All -State meet. The baseball team reached the south sectional semifinals, the field hockey team was a south sectional finalist. The foot- ball team enjoyed a second consecutive Thanksgiving morning game with Plymouth North and concluded its sea- son with a victory. Student activities and government enjoyed a success- ful year. The D -Y student council was selected by its peers 191 for the Excellence Award as the outstanding student council in the Commonwealth. During the fall semester D -Y's stu- dent council hosted the Southeastern Massachusetts As- sociation of Student Councils conference - an event at- tended by approximately 600 students from twenty-six schools. The Horatio Alger Foundation selected D -Y as one of only two schools in the Commonwealth to partici- pate in its scholarship and career day program. As a re- sult, D -Y senior Paula Santos has been awarded a $5,000 scholarship and the school will hold a career day in March, 1996. The various departments continue to adapt their cur- ricula and instructional practices in light of the new sched- ule and graduation requirements. Two departments under- went name changes. The foreign language department henceforth will be called world languages while home eco- nomics will be known as family and consumer sciences. The English and social studies departments, respectively, began a broader basis of evaluating student performance especially through the use of portfolio assessment. Both departments are involved with Facing History and Our- selves and through a stipend from the Coalition of Essen- tial Schools grant will develop integrated concepts for class- room instruction. The entire mathematical sciences de- partment attended the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics National Convention in Boston. In addition, D -Y's twelve math teachers attended over 250 hours of workshops on curriculum, instructional strategies and tech- nology. In the past year the science department has un- dertaken many changes that begin to align the department curriculum with the new state curriculum frameworks, newly released national science education standards, and the recommendations of national science organizations such as the National Science Teachers Association and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. New science courses have been implemented in grades 9 and 10 which tie together the major disciplines of science such as biology, chemistry and physics. A third course, Research in Science, has been instituted which enables students to do authentic science research under the guid- ance of a faculty advisor. Students in this course present their work in the form of a computer generated paper that represents their laboratory, field and library work associ- ated with the experimentation. Greater emphasis through- out the department has been placed on students learning how to investigate topics of science and how to use the processes of science in everyday activities. Work is cur- rently underway on the development and implementation of additional course changes which will complete the revi- sion of the science curriculum. The newly organized electives department completed its initial year. Instructional emphasis in all elective areas continues to be exploratory and hands-on. All students must complete successfully two courses in both the fine and applied arts as part of the new (1993) graduation re- quirement. Students in the visual arts and music programs con- tinued to excel in their respective endeavors. Visual arts students participated in many competitions and exhibitions and, as per usual, garnered their fair share of awards and accolades. D - Y students received recognition at the Bos- ton Globe Scholastic Art Show, the Cape Cod Art Associa- tion Exhibition and by the Massachusetts Cultural Coun- cil. The music department had another successful year. Students were selected to Regional, District and All -State Honors Ensembles in numbers that are far above the state average. The marching band won numerous competitions and specialty captions and represented the school through- out New England. D -Y's vocal music program continued to grow and expand its repertoire. Several members of the concert chorale performed in the drama club's produc- tion, Oklahoma. All three ensembles performed numer- ous times for the community's entertainment and enjoy- ment. Like its electives counterpart, the newly organized student services department concluded its initial year. This department includes guidance counselors, special needs staff, psychologist, social worker and student assistance personnel. This reorganization has enabled guidance counselors to work more closely with assistant principals to oversee student academic performance and behavior. In addition, the department has established a separate career -college center to provide students and parents with information regarding post -secondary education, the mili- tary and the world of work. Finally, three school -to -career programs currently are being developed and will be avail- able for students during the 1996-97 academic year. Numerous faculty members have distinguished them- selves this past year through their leadership and partici- pation in regional, state and national educational ventures. Over one-third of the faculty organized and presented work- shops relating to curriculum, instruction, scheduling or stu- dent activities to their colleagues throughout the Common- wealth, New England and the nation. After eleven years as D -Y's principal, Curtis S. Collins, Jr., resigned to accept the principalship of Cohasset Jun- ior -Senior High School. The D -Y school community is deeply indebted to Curt for steadfast and enthusiastic lead- ership. We all wish him the very best. Finally, no school can provide an appropriate learn- ing environment without commitment from support person- nel. During 1995 D -Y's custodial, maintenance, grounds, secretarial and cafeteria staffs, respectively, contributed immeasurably to the year's success. Their daily dedica- tion and loyalty are central to the D -Y school community. REPORT OF CHARLES T. ORLOFF, PRINCIPAL MATTACHEESE MIDDLE SCHOOL The challenges in education are seldom small or few. 1995 presented no exception. Whether a year's tasks in- volve implementing new programs or planning a fiscally responsible budget while maintaining a diligent focus on quality, the work of the Mattacheese Middle School staff is never complete. I am pleased to report that with guid- ance, support, and many hours of hard work from the Mattacheese School Council members, the professional staff of our school have made progress toward our estab- lished goals. As mentioned in previous yearly reports, middle level education integrates academic growth with the social, emotional, and physical development of early adolescents. This past year saw few changes in our academic offer- ings. The world language initiative which calls for foreign language instruction for all students is progressing nicely. The language arts vision of concentrating reading and writ- ing instruction in one eighty minute block has been ex- panded to include over half of our eighth grade students. It is our wish to expand this program further so, eventually, all Mattacheese students will receive language arts instruc- tion within this format. In the mathematics area all seventh grade students are now offered the University of Chicago transition math. The number of students involved in Algebra I at the eighth grade level has increased steadily, and we will soon pilot an exciting and challenging math program for our sixth graders. The district has also seen great progress in its middle level science offerings. New and inspiring units of instruction were written during the summer months, and they are being piloted throughout the school year. With the loss of over 110 fifth grade students to Simpkins, Small, and the new Station Avenue school, we opened in September to just over 660 students in grades six through eight. Due to the large number of students in our incoming sixth grade class, the total number of chil- dren enrolled at Mattacheese decreased by only sixty. While this population change did provide us with some tem- porary breathing room, current elementary enrollments predict continued middle level growth in the next few years. In addition to their noted absence, the loss of the fifth graders has caused us to change the immensely success- ful peer education program called Kids to Kids. This year our eighth grade volunteers were trained as peer tutors whose focus is to assist sixth grade students with aca- demic, organizational, and transitional conflicts. Mrs. But- ler and Mrs. Martin have provided spirited leadership to this program, and the students involved have performed beautifully. 192 As in previous years, the eighth grade Adopt -A - Grandparent program has continued to be a shining light in our efforts to reach out to the community. More stu- dents than ever are involved in weekly visits to patients at the Mayflower Nursing Home in which the students strive to provide companionship and fun. As program advisors Mrs. Beless and Mr. Zopatti are again directing the stu- dents' efforts. Their work, in addition to the students' ex- ceptional grace and altruism, is greatly appreciated. To maintain programs such as those outlined in this report requires both commitment and resources. Many of the professionals working at Mattacheese Middle School display their commitment to children and quality program- ming on a daily basis. This year, however, once the school year began we were asked to cut our financial resources by over $44,000. Cutting a figure this size from a building budget which could already be considered conservative was no easy task. It stymies progress and, ultimately, its effects are witnessed by everyone. Before closing I would like to give a brief report on the vision of the Mattacheese School Council. As you may remember, our goals involved communication, inclusion, and gifted and talented education. During the past year we ran three sub -committees to address each of the iden- tified goals. One of the direct results of the communica- tion sub -committee was the start of the Mattacheese weekly newsletter called "News in the Middle". The newsletter is passed out to every student on the first day of each school week. Additional copies are always available in our main office. The sub -committee dealing with the special needs issue of inclusion generated a direct action plan and pre- sented it to the Council. Some of the scheduling and class placement requests in this plan have already been imple- mented, while others have been put on hold due to their direct financial implication for future budgets. The sub- committee dealing with the issue of gifted and talented education in our school also produced an explicit plan of action for the Council to consider. A few of the specific goals in this plan call for curriculum compacting for those students who display mastery of grade level objectives, a focus on providing challenging activities within the regular classroom for all students, and a flexible grouping plan which allows gifted and talented students the experience of a variety of academic groupings. In closing, I would like to thank the many people who have worked so hard this year for our students. This list must include all of the members of the Mattacheese School Council, with special thanks to my Co -Chair, Mrs. Marcia Nugent. Thank you also to Mrs. Dolly Vera and the offic- ers of the Parent's Advisory Council for their continued hard work and support. All of the teachers and parents who 193 served on the varied sub -committees deserve a special thanks, as do the parents who offered their time and sup- port during special school activities and during parent/ teacher conferences. The job of educating early adoles- cents is an exciting adventure, and I thank all of you who have helped us along the way. REPORT OF PATRICIA A. FITZSIMMONS, PRINCIPAL NATHANIEL H. WIXON MIDDLE SCHOOL The 1995-96 school year began in September with a new, innovative administrative team for Wixon. As I as- sumed the awesome responsibilities of Principal, joining me was Mr. Mark R. Mason as Assistant Principal. Mr. Mason was formerly the Dean of Students at Cape Cod Regional Vocational Technical School, and brings to Wixon a deep sense of commitment to education and a wealth of experience in scheduling and curriculum development. A new Assistant Principal/Social Worker position for the fourth and fifth grades was created at the suggestion of the Wixon School Council and approved by the Dennis -Yarmouth School Committee. Ms. Marjorie L. Cook comes to this position with experience as an elementary school princi- pal as well as a private counsellor. The Wixon Community is well served by the addition of Mr. Mason and Ms. Cook, and the new administrative team looks forward to leading Wixon into the twenty-first century. Joining the staff were: Mrs. Linda Shrake, grade five; Mrs. Sophia Sarhanis, grade seven mathematics/social studies; Mrs. Susan Coppelman, grade eight language arts/ mathematics; Mrs. Ann Mach, behavior specialist for grades four and five; Officer Carole Johnson, Dennis Police De- partment D.A.R.E. instructor, and Mr. Alan Hunter, behav- ior program aide. As we continue with our five year technology plan, fifteen new state-of-the-art computers were added to our computer lab and the computers from the lab were as- signed to the classrooms. Mrs. Kathleen Schrock, our li- brarian, received national recognition for her creation of our Wixon Homepage on the Internet. The Wixon community consists of seven hundred ninety-one students in grades four through eight, sixty full- time professional staff members, three administrators, and an energetic secretarial, custodial, and cafeteria support staff. The Dennis -Yarmouth School Committee, in re- sponse to parental concerns, established a Dennis Build- ing Needs Committee to study the use of space and pos- sible overcrowding in the two Dennis schools as well as the dynamics of the fourth and fifth graders being in a Middle School environment. This committee is expected to present its report by the spring to the School Commit- tee. The Wixon Middle School Council continues to be hard at work implementing the School Improvement Plan, focusing on the core value of Respect, Personal Respon- sibility, and Achievement of Academic Potential. The Coun- cil is also studying the changes that will be necessary at Wixon so that the school will be in line with the Time and Learning mandate of the Educational Reform Act which will require nine hundred hours of direct instruction per year at this level. I would like to thank the people of the Town of Den- nis for their continued strong support of education and es- pecially the education of the Wixon Middle School students. We will strive to offer forward thinking and challenging cur- riculum as we prepare our students for what lies ahead. REPORT OF RANDALL W. WALLIN PRINCIPAL, MARGUERITE E. SMALL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Again, it is a privilege to submit this Annual Report of the Marguerite E. Small Elementary School. We have all experienced two years of the Educational Reform Bill, which has changed our collective roles as partners in educating the children of Yarmouth. It is vitally important to continue to strengthen our partnership; so we will be successful in meeting the challenges that are before us. During the 1994-95 school year, our enrollment reached 501 students. This placed us slightly over the recommended building capacity, which is 428 students. The individual breakdown was as follows: Kindergarten, 94; Grade one, 97; Grade two, 112; Grade three, 86; Grade four, 112. I would like to congratulate the professional teaching staff for their dedication in educating the children in their charge. Their efforts do not go unnoticed and many times extend beyond expectations. This year marked the sec- ond year of a two year grade one-two "looping" pilot. This is a program that enables the grade one teacher to keep her students for a second year. It has been very success- ful and has generated many commitments from the par- ents of the children enrolled in this program. Additionally, this has been the third year that the teachers have held parent curriculum nights. I cannot impress how important it is for the parents to attend their child's curriculum night. This is a key factor in learning first hand what your child will be experiencing in their individual classrooms. This marked the first year of Curriculum Lead Teachers, through the efforts of Dr. David Crellin, Director of Instruction. These lead teachers have been charged with the development of curriculum in each of the disciplines as well as reviewing the Curriculum Frameworks. Our district's curriculum will be undergoing much needed reform as a result of the teams' efforts. 194 I would like to thank the parents, community mem- bers and staff, that took the time to complete the Needs Assessment distributed to them. This tool allowed the School Council to look at the strengths and weaknesses of our school, and develop a School Improvement Plan that reflected the desires of all of the above mentioned groups. This plan was then presented to the School Com-, mittee for their approval. I am very pleased to report that the plan has been implemented with much success. A copy of this plan is available here at the school, and in your local public library as well as in the D -Y Administra- tion Office. In order to insure the smooth transition of the stu- dents scheduled to attend the Station Avenue Elementary School (SAE) for the 95-96 school year, much planning and preparation was needed. As a result of the opening of SAE, it eased the overcrowding, and allowed music classes to be held in a classroom rather than the cafeteria and Large Group Area. Also, Art classes are no longer being taught in the LGA simultaneously with Music classes. As we said good-bye to many students, we also said good- bye to a number of staff members as they transferred to the district's newest elementary school. I wish the follow- ing teachers all the best in their new assignments: Mrs. Kathy Frostholm; Mr. Paul Leofanti; Mrs. Sandra Saben (Deemer) and Mrs. Tracey Seigal. I would like to thank our ever active Parents Advisory Council (PAC) for the tireless volunteer hours. Through our PAC we have offered an extensive Author in Our Schools Program featuring authors such as Richard Wain- wright. PAC has also contracted for special assembly pro- grams to further enrich our students educational experi- ence. In addition the secretaries, aides, cafeteria person- nel and custodial workers are to be commended for their "behind the scenes" dedication and commitment to the smooth building operation. We also say good-bye to two very familiar staff mem- bers, as they have retired after many years of service to the children of Yarmouth. I would like to wish Mrs. Roberta Kinkead and Mrs. Marilyn Burke a much deserved long and happy retirement. We will miss the many ways that you have brought smiles to our school. I would like to thank the Fire and Police Departments for the continued involvement and support in the educa- tional process of the children. The safety programs play a very important part in the children's lives. It is with great sadness that as a school, we lost one of our third grade students, Allen Cobb, who perished in.a tragic house fire. In Allen's memory, a handcrafted light- house has been placed in one of our library showcases, entitled "Cobb's Light." JEANNE M. CARRICK, PRINCIPAL LAURENCE C. MACARTHUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL It is a privilege to write this annual report for the newly named Laurence C. MacArthur Elementary School, for- merly the South Yarmouth Elementary School. I would like to thank the present school committee for recognizing the outpouring of community support to change the name of our school in honor of Mr. MacArthur. Larry MacArthur was a visible force in the town of Yarmouth. He left his mark in many ways on the schoolchildren, parents, fami- lies, and every member of our community. He fought a courageous battle with cancer and died on August 24, 1995. Mr. MacArthur worked in the district since 1968 in various capacities, and served as principal in South Yarmouth from 1982 until his death last summer. Students and staff alike remember his many contributions in the field of education, especially his constant motto: "We're here for the chil- dren." We are saddened by his loss and will miss his quick wit and ready smile. With the opening of the new Station Avenue Elemen- tary School, our facility has been able to house our stu- dent population without having to use closets, cafeteria, and stage areas for instructional purposes. We are grate- ful to the citizens of Yarmouth for their financial support. In order to continually upgrade our facilities, programming, and equipment, we ask again for your vote in favor of the school children of Yarmouth. Our students need to be pre- pared for life in the twenty-first century! The varied programs implemented under Mr. MacArthur's direction continue to provide quality educa- tion and support services for the students of our district. A large number of professional staff members are involved in professional development endeavors in the areas of tech- nology, inclusion, and curriculum. This year, the day care program has been expanded to provide kindergarten care for students who need supervision for the other half of the school day. Mr. MacArthur was always very proud of the outstanding program offered at a very affordable cost, so that parents could feel secure in their day care arrange- ments. This program is completely self-supporting. Al- though our school has always maintained a cooperative effort with the Yarmouth Police Department, the establish- ment of the Youth Services Unit is a new program imple- mented this year. We welcome Officer Ray Scichilone, who will help our staff to provide support for each child and family with whom we interact. The Education Reform Act Council presented its school improvement plan to the school committee in Octo- ber after months of research, hard work, and collabora- tion. Our thanks to Mrs. Mary Knowland, former art teacher, for the use of her original artwork on our cover. The efforts 195 of Mrs. Susan Connor and Mrs. Sharon McCorkle, two dedicated staff members, are to be commended, along with Mrs. Anne Seeley, our community representative, and Mrs. Elena Ghioto, our parent member. Newly elected staff members are Mrs. Barbara Cole and Mrs. Virginia Conefrey, along with parent representatives Mrs. Linda Tucker and Mrs. Kerry Lotti. Welcome also to Mrs. Willow Brown, our new community member. The council is cur- rently developing our final two core values, which will be presented in June to the school committee. The number of volunteers who enrich our program daily are an invaluable resource. We are truly indebted to members of the VIPS (Volunteers in Public Schools) and TIE (Teen in Education) programs, who are a welcome addition to our school community. The Laurence C. MacArthur/John Simpkins Parent Teacher Organization provides a number of enrichment experiences for our stu- dents. Their fund raising efforts for the benefit of our stu- dents in the areas of computer equipment and software, playground and physical education supplies save thou- sands of dollars for the school district. Current officers include Laure Home, Lisa Switzer, Audrey Lee, and Karen Scichilone. Their efforts are enhanced by a growing num- ber of parent volunteers. Such energy and dedication are commendable. Just as our school population changes and grows, our staff will strive to meet the needs of each student and the demands of society. I am impressed with the exper- tise, compassion, and dedication of this very professional and loyal faculty. A caring, supportive link to the commu- nity is the vision that Mr. MacArthur had for our school, and each staff member is committed to that ideal, to cre- ate an educational atmosphere "where excellence begins". REPORT OF NANCY C. MELIA, PRINCIPAL JOHN SIMPKINS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL 1995 was a year of great change at the John Simpkins School. Most of this change was triggered by the opening of the Station Avenue Elementary School in South Yarmouth. Over 100 students were reassigned to the new school, dropping our enrollment to about 280 students, the lowest figure in over a decade. The Simpkins School began the calendar year with Mrs. Jeanne Carrick serving as Acting Principal. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to her for the fine job she did in this regard. With her assistance, four class- rooms of students were moved to the new building, open- ing up much needed space for those who remained. The Parent Teacher Organization continued to sup- port special projects and activities for students. A P.T.O. Playground Committee was formed to work in conjunction with Linda Sears, Director of the Yarmouth Recreation De- partment. Through the efforts of many people, an impres- sive structure was erected behind the school. It is the first major upgrade of playground equipment at the Simpkins School in over twenty years. In particular, the work of Jack Ashley, volunteer general contractor and clerk -of -the -works should be acknowledged. Linda Sears, Susan Colton and Gail Staff also played critical roles in seeing this project through to completion. A special memory for all of us this past year was the commemorative event held in honor of Larry MacArthur. Bill Jacques, our music teacher, wrote an original song in Mr. MacArthur's memory and it was sung by Simpkins stu- dents at a special tree planting ceremony in October. The Yarmouth Police Department continues to work with us in a supporting role. Students were given an op- portunity to become acquainted with Officer Richard White through the "Adopt A School Program". His expertise has proven invaluable to the school on a number of occasions. In summary, the cliche that "it takes a village to raise a child" is a truism born out by the involvement of so many segments of the community in the daily operation of the John Simpkins School. REPORT OF FRANCES H. MEYER, PRINCIPAL EZRA H. BAKER SCHOOL The new class of kndergarteners at Ezra H. Baker exceeded expectations. The number of entering kinder- garten students totaled 160, 88 boys and 72 girls. Distrib- uting these children into seven classes gave Kindergarten classes of twenty three. Total enrollment is now at 637 including thirty-one children in the Pre-school program. The recommended capacity of the school is 550 students. Staff has again been augmented by the addition of a .5 aide, Carol Gonsalves and a full time sped aide, Mersh Lubel Kanis filling the vacancy left by the move of an aide to the Station Avenue school. A first grade teacher and a .5 kindergarten teacher also moved to Station Avenue. The first grade position was filled by the transfer of Maggie Donovan from South Yarmouth Elementary and the .5 kin- dergarten position by a transfer of Jennifer Lindberg from an aide's position. All of these people bring great strengths and talents to Ezra H. Baker and we are fortunate to have them as replacements for the very strong teachers and aide who transferred to Station Avenue, Susan Ferguson, Carol Markham, and Eileen McCarthy respectively. We feel very fortunate to have been able to provide two Macintosh computers and a printer to every classroom, kindergarten through third grade. Children and teachers are exploring and learning the wonderful ways in which 196 these tools can augment instruction. Every class in grades one through three now enjoys a 50 minute computer pe-' hod a week either in the computer room or their classroom during which Heather Hinckley, the knowledgeable com- puter aide, and the teacher cooperate to ensure whole class progress in computer literacy for the students. The Parent Teacher Advisory Council continues to support us in all our endeavors, from play equipment for recess, and support of teacher projects to a much needed sign soon to be installed at the driveway entrance, and as members of the school council. They continue to supply the manpower for the Attendance Safety Line and the money to pay for the telephone and its use. We rely heavily on PTAC for their support of enrichment activities and family social opportunities. The School Council continues its work of evaluating and facilitating progress on the goals presented in the School Improvement Plan. A survey has been completed to determine the areas of most interest to parents. A se- ries of teacher presented workshops on these topics is presently being planned. The council will be asked to par- ticipate in the budget cuts necessary in our proposed 1997 budget. The outstanding group of teachers at Ezra H. Baker continue to study and grow in their professional compe- tence as new research makes clearer the way in which children learn. The changes in our world recommended changes in our teaching. Teachers have adjusted their routines and instruction to accommodate these changes while continuing to provide a sound foundation in the ba- sic skills which underlie the abilities needed to solve fu- ture problems. All the staff at Ezra H. Baker, custodial, food service, secretarial and instructional contribute to the warm, nur- turing, and accepting environment which allows children to take risks and grow in their understanding and learning. Our sincere thanks go to the people of the Town of Dennis for their support of our work with the children of Dennis at Ezra H. Baker School. REPORT OF SHARON L. HARTLEY, PRINCIPAL STATION AVENUE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL On September 5, 1995, with banners flying, Station Avenue Elementary School doors opened to welcome our first students in kindergarten through fifth grades. On this date we officially took our place as the newest school in the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. The smooth opening of this school must be attributed to the efforts and teamwork of the entire school community: parents, dis- trict administrators, teachers, custodial staff, food service staff, support staff, bus drivers, students and community members. f,'. During this past year we have completed the tasks required by the construction of a new school: selecting the staff, purchasing and adapting materials and equip- ment to meet the needs of our students, organizing open houses, inducting students, developing school procedures, and establishing our identity as a school community. This summer a committee of teachers collaborated to capture a vision for Station Avenue School. In the hand- book they state, " It is our sincerest goal to create a com- munity of learners - readers and writers, mathematicians, artists, musicians, lovers of science and world language, children who share a love for learning." This committee also adopted the following goals for the 1995-96 school year: To bring together students, staff parents and com- munity members to build a cooperative and caring school climate; To foster a nurturing and safe environment charac- terized by recognition and respect for all members of the school community; To provide a child -centered, inclusive curriculum that celebrates individual development, achievements and . talents; To sustain high standards, provide individual chal- lenges, motivate and inspire our students; and To create a community of learners. The core educational program at StationAvenue School features extensive and challenging opportunities for our Kindergarten through Grade 5 students. All stu- dents explore and gain skills in Communicative Arts, Math- ematics, Social Studies, Science as well as Art, Music, Physical Education, Computer Science and Library Skills. In addition students in Grades 4 and 5 participate in Health Education classes once each week and have the opportu- nity to enroll in the instrumental music program. Our Mu- sic Department also offers a Choral Music program for fifth graders. Before the school year even began Station Avenue Elementary School had registered more students than the anticipated 380 students. As this report goes to press our total enrollment is 432 students with the following grade level breakdown: Kindergarten, 81; Grade One, 77; Grade two, 72; Grade Three, 82; Grade Four, 59; and Grade Five, 61. 197 If the strength of a school lies in its faculty, then Sta- tion Avenue School is fortunate indeed. We have an en- thusiastic and dedicated faculty, most of whom transferred from the other excellent schools in the district. Full time staff members who are new to the district include: the School Psychologist, Sherianna Zradi; the School Nurse, Rosemarie Dykeman; the Secretary, Kathy Parkes; the Receptionist, Suzie Meyer; as well as Michele Colley, Patricia MacArthur and Patricia Watson, Teacher Aides. Other members of our staff who are new to the district include Denise Chausse, Valerie Cameron, Janet Economidy, Holly Knepper, Doris McGuire, and Patricia Grabowski. Eileen McCarthy, formally an Aide at the Ezra Baker School, joined our staff this year as a long term sub- stitute teacher for Susan Ferguson who was on a Leave of Absence until February. In accordance with the Educational Reform Act we established our school council during the first few months of the school year. The membership of the Station Av- enue Elementary School Council include parent represen- tatives Amy Almonte, Karen Butler, Sandra Femino, and Brenda Martinez (co-chair); teacher representative Pam Hill, Kathy Kenyon, and Paul Leofanti; and community rep- resentative, Francis Worrell. The Station Avenue Elemen- tary School Council meets regularly with the principal to provide advice and guidance and to develop a school im- provement plan. This year we have received strong support and much appreciated assistance from the police and fire depart- ments. Representatives from these departments have provided excellent safety programs for our staff and stu- dents regarding a variety of pertinent topics including ice safety procedures, fire prevention, emergency and evacu- ation drills. We are particularly grateful for the new pro- gram, Youth Services Unit, initiated by Chief Carnes of the Yarmouth Police Department. Officer Chris Kent, assigned as a special officer to our school, has been a regular and welcome visitor at Station Avenue School and has pro- vided significant support for our students. We are grateful to the dedicated members of the police and fire depart- ments for their efforts and enthusiasm for working with our students. The parents of our students provide valuable assis- tance for our school. During a single weekend this sum- mer a corps of parents and other community volunteers, led by Tom Howes and Terry Deveau, constructed the new playground at the south end of the school. In September a formal parent group formed as the Station Avenue Elemen- tary School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). This or- ganization provides active and positive support for Station Avenue School. Already this year they have sponsored the After School Activity Program, a Holiday Event and Family Breakfast, and many other special programs for our stu- dents. We extend our sincere appreciation for their contri- butions to the PTO members and their officers: Sandra Femino, President; Sandi Nagle and Ellen Sheret, Co -Vice Presidents; Evie Barbo, Treasurer; and Secretary, Kim Clark. Our students also benefit on a daily basis from the tremendous support provided by the volunteers in Public Schools (VIPS) program coordinated by Ellen Barber. Se- nior volunteers are teamed with teachers to assist in many ways: direct work with students, oral reading, tutoring, cleri- cal support, assisting with special events and leading spe- cial projects. We are grateful for the tireless efforts and dedication of these vital members of our school community. In addition, we have reaped benefits from our prox- imity to the high school. In a program called Education Engineers, organized by teacher, Mary Nelson, D -Y stu- dents assist our youngsters in a variety of ways including teaching World Languages, tutoring individual and small groups of students, and serving as mentors and coaches for our youngsters. Faculty members at the Station Avenue Elementary School are committed to continuous learning and profes- sional development . This school has been the center of constant professional activity since it opened. In the spring, staff members came together for a two-day professional development experience in team -building. During the sum- mer many faculty members attended a week-long program introducing the building technology and computer systems. This fall and winter staff members have participated in courses in World Languages, Inclusion Classroom, and Understanding Teaching and have been actively involved in curriculum development. The town of Yarmouth has achieved a significant mile- stone with the construction and operation of the Station Avenue Elementary School. I extend the appreciation of the school community to all who made this school pos- sible especially the members of the Building Committee, Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Michael McCaffrey and Mr. Donald Johnson, the Director of Fiscal Affairs. In conclusion, I submit this report with great pride and confidence in the future of this new school. I feel privi- leged to serve a community with such commitment to edu- cation and dedication to its children.

Woodward Kevin Koski Chris Ricciardi (Alternate) Report of the Waterfront Planning Group Our Planning Group was established by the Board of Selectmen to develop short and long term initiatives rela- tive to our coastal resources. The intent was to incorpo- rate some or all of our recommendations into the Local Master Plan that is being developed. To this end, we submitted our final report to the Se- lectmen in early September of 1995. This report contained in excess of 60 specific recommendations designed to enhance Yarmouth's waterfront. Our final recommenda- tion to the Selectmen was to disband the Waterfront Plan- ning Group as we had completed the task we were charged with. We are mindful of the ever increasing tax burden of the Town's taxpayers and attempted to avoid recommen- dations that would increase this tax burden. Among the recommendations were a number of public and/or public/ private development concepts that are designed to pay most of the costs of implementing our recommendations. Our belief is that if the general public is made fully aware of these conceptual plans, there would be a great deal of support for some of the concepts. How and when this pub- lic awareness is created remains unanswered. In late September of 1995 the Selectmen requested that we provide copies of the report to those who would be impacted by the recommendations, to include neighbor- hood associations and to hold public hearings on the is- sues. Our Group has never been funded by the Town and many of the Groups members generously provided most the money necessary to complete the report. Copies of our report may be seen in the Office of the Town Administrator. Respectfully submitted, Thomas J.

OFFICE USE ONLY Contact Date Committee Result Status Update I 219 On December 7 of each year, the American Legion Post 197 and Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6293, take the time to remember the events of December 7th, 1941. American servicemen and women, while aware of the war being fought in Europe and of the Japanese conquests and aggression against China, were in the peace time mode of training and readiness. Emissaries from Imperial Japan were meeting with State Department officials discussing trade and areas of influence in the Far East while their fleet was moving into position to launch an attack on Pearl Harbor and installations in the Philippines. Our fleet, Army Air Corp and other military units were unaware of the seriousness of the talks in Washing- ton and were not alerted to the potential of a surprise or "sneak" attack. Our service personnel, who bore the brunt of the attack on that Sunday morning, were the unsung heros of World War II. They tended their wounds and buried their dead in the sands along the beaches or as they lay in the sunken ships. Using many antiquated weapons and munitions, they picked up the pieces and moved on to hold off superior numbers of enemy forces throughout the Far East until the overwhelming might of the United States was mobilized to win the final victory in 1945. We gathered at Bass River Beach at the Veterans Memorial Park to "Remember" and to honor those among us who survived the horrendous events that began on December 7, 1941.

FOR THE YEAR 1096 nor tc "- The facilities depicted' throughout this year's town report have been funded through an entitlement grant to the town: All these facilities are handicapped accessible. Meadowbrook Road Coii_nserpation Walkway The 1996 Town Report highlights the work which has been completed under the direction of Linda Sears, Recreation Director, and Phil Whitten, Parks/ Cemetery Director, the staff in the Town Engineering Department, Conservation Department, and the Handicapped Affairs Commission. The wording on the sign which you see on this page recognizes the fact that all of the projects highlighted in the 1996 Annual Town Report were funded through the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development through a Handicapped Access Grant awarded by the Town Administrator as part of the five year comprehensive plan submitted to HUD. These projects have been developed by town staff and show the level of expertise and innovation in improving the handicapped accessibility to our many recreational and beach areas while improving the visual aspect of these natural resources. This Project has been Funded by The U.S. Dept. of Housing and Urban Development Through an Entitlement Grant to the Town of Yarmouth This sign is posted at each of our facilities.

The committee reports to the Town Moderator, and is charged with providing oversight and advice on the town's financial matters. The committee meets ;throughout the year. More concentrated work, typi- cally involving a two -per -week meeting schedule, is required as the proposed budget for the coming fiscal year is reviewed prior to the Annual Town Meeting. The committee reviews in detail all monetary propos- als to be brought forward at town meetings, and pro- vides recommendations on each article for the ben- efit of the voters. Funding of the town's portion of the Dennis - Yarmouth Regional School District represents approxi- mately half of Yarmouth's annual budget. Due to the laws governing regional school districts, the authority and responsibility for the establishment of district bud- gets lie not with town government, but with elected regional school committees. Nevertheless, FinCom and selectmen do recommend a school budget figure at town meeting, and the Finance Committee is fre- quently urged to "become involved" with school bud- get development, despite the lack of authority. In Fis- cal Year 1998 budget development, we are attempt- ing to assign FinCom resources to analyze school budget proposals more thoroughly and, with excel- lent current cooperation from D -Y Administration and the D -Y School Committee, to provide relevant input to the process. 5 As described in previous town reports, the bud- geting system installed by the Town Administrator some five years ago continues to be more effective as computerized history becomes available for an- nual comparison and analysis. Our municipal depart- ment managers continue to demonstrate budgetary discipline, especially with respect to providing quality services to residents while generally holding the line on requests for personnel increases. The terms of three FinCom members expire in May 1997, and Yarmouth residents who can contrib- ute to the work described above are encouraged to submit Talent Bank forms at Town Hall, and to respond to membership solicitations later in 1997. Respectfully submitted, Roy J. Morton, Chairman James Peters, Vice -Chairman James Collins, Clerk Betty -Jane Burkhardt Barrie Cliff Fritz Lindquist John McCarthy Donald Tuers Margaret Woods Mission Statement of the Board of Selectmen: The Mission of the Board of Selectmen is to provide leadership to citizens and employees in achieving the goals of the Town and to ensure that effective service of the highest quality is provided to residents, businesses, and visitors to the Town of Yarmouth. Report of the Board of Selectmen The Board of Selectmen completed its annual reorganization and goal -setting exercise in the spring of 1996. Selectmen held the following positions: Chris Bowman: Chairman John Howard: Vice Chairman, Growth Policy Rep., County Finance Board Rep. Herbert Schnitzer: School Corn. Liaison & Bargaining Rep., Ambulance Fee Admin. Charlotte Striebel: Licensing Chairman, Clerk Maureen Rischitelli: Appointments Chairman Progress Toward Goal Implementation Economic Revitalization. Recognizing the need to expand the tax base and reduce the burden on residential taxpayers, the Board of Selectmen con- tinued its aggressive economic revitalization plans. Town Meeting accepted the Board's recommendation to establish eight economic opportunity areas that will enable Yarmouth to offer targeted tax incentives to , new and existing businesses. It is the first time in Yarmouth's history that such tax incentives will be available. The Board also established the Economic Revi- talization Committee that is charged with business re- cruitment and retainment in Yarmouth. The commit- tee is off to a fast start under the leadership of Chair- man Ed Sweeney already approaching existing busi- nesses interested in expansion, forming recommen- dations to streamline the town's permit process and developing a job description for a new Economic De- velopment Specialist to be proposed at the Annual Town MeEting in 1997. Yarmouth is also fortunate to have a strong and growing Chamber of Commerce that is lead by Presi- dent Dick St. George and Executive Director Robert Dubois. The town is well -served by this civic -minded group. Management/Employee Relations. Both the Fire and Police union contracts were settled in early 1996 resulting in contracts for all Town employees through June 30, 1997. The Board is hopeful that new contracts for all 6 bargaining units will be settled well before the new fiscal year begins. The Board also hopes to implement a new classification study com- pleted by Assistant Town Administrator Joellen Daley. 7 The residents of Yarmouth are well served by a dedicated group of town employees. While it doesn't get said enough, the Board of Selectmen is sincerely grateful for their hard work and commitment. Landfill Capping/Re-Use Plan. The Board unanimously endorsed a $17.5 million plan to cap the Yarmouth landfill and re -use the area as a multi -fac- eted recreation facility which will include a 9 -hole ex- tension of Bayberry Hills Golf Course, new ball fields, walking trails and an extension of the Cape Cod Rail Trail. This plan will mEet the ever-increasing demand for new recreational fields and help defray the cost of the project through the generation of golf fees. The cost of this project has already been reduced by $1 million thanks to a successful state grant prepared by Yarmouth Town employees.

After several months of research by the Yarmouth Senior Center Transition Committee, Town Meeting accepted the Committee's report to purchased the Center from the Friends of Yarmouth Seniors (FOYS). The town had leased the facility from the FOYS since 1986 and the Transition Committee's report concluded that Yarmouth taxpay- ers would recognize a financial savings as owners. A ceremony was held in September 1996 to formally thank the Friends of Yarmouth Seniors for construct- ing and maintaining the most beautiful Senior center in the region. Their hard work will benefit several gen- erations of Yarmouth seniors. Formation of D -Y Study Committee. Yarmouth voters experienced what can only be described as a tumultuous year in regard to funding Yarmouth's as- sessment to the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. With original requests for increase topping 17% over the previous fiscal year, voters turned down three Proposition 2-1/2 override requests and opted to increase Yarmouth's assessment by 3% resulting in a total assessment of $12.514 million for FY97. Hoping to avoid a repeat of this process during the FY98 process, selectmen in Dennis and Yarmouth appointed residents to a joint D -Y Study Committee to review modifications to the funding process. The committee will present its recommendations in early 1997. Town Finances. Thanks to the leadership of Town Administrator Robert Lawton, Municipal Finance Director Sue Milne, Town Collector Fran Wood, and Treasurer Wally Lundstrom, Yarmouth maintained a strong Al bond rating. The taxpayers are fortunate to have .a superior .financial- management team safe- guarding town funds and planning for our town's fu- ture needs. All five members of the Board consider the op- portunity to serve the residents of Yarmouth a privi- lege. Yarmouth is a wonderful place to call home and we hope to keep it that way. Respectfully submitted, Christopher C. Bowman, Chairman 8 REPORT OF THE TOWN ADMINISTRATOR In 1996 the Town focussed its attention on town finances. The voters were faced with three override votes to determine the final budget for the regional school district and the town. These choices were made more difficult by the continued underfunding of our regional school district as well as the other school departments on Cape Cod. On a positive financial note we asked Moody's Bond Rating Service to meet with us during the summer of 1996. During that meeting the financial managers of the town including the Fi- nance Director, the Town Treasurer, and Town Admin- istrator made a detailed presentation to Moody's, along with our landfill consultant from the engineering firm of CDM, on the landfill closure and how that major project will be funded. At the end of the meeting, the representative from Moody's and our certifying bank, Bay Bank, Inc., were pleased with our presentation and the sound financial structure of the Town of Yarmouth. Based upon that presentation, the town was recertified at an A-1 Bond Rating and a tentative agree- ment that a twenty-year bond would be appropriate for our landfill closure. The landfill closure itself started in 1996. The area of the landfill within the zone of contribution has been closed and capped. In addition, a new commer- cial drop off area and yard waste recycling area was opened. The yard waste recycling area was con- structed, to a great degree, with existing staff which saved the town significant dollars. They should be commended for their hard work on this project. We also received a one million -dollar grant from the State , of Massachusetts for the construction of the recre- ation areas at the landfill. A number of town employ- ees worked very hard in developing the grant and then taking the time to meet with state officials to explain the project and the benefits to our citizens. Other grants received by various town departments included a $375,000 three year grant for five new police offic- ers that was received from the federal government. Through the leadership of Chief Carnes, a number of grants for community policing, improving the computer system at the police station and purchasing of new equipment were also received. Our Housing and Ur- ban Development Grants continued to make major improvements in handicapped access at Parkers River Beach, Flax Pond, Seagull Beach and providing handi- capped access to some of our conservation areas along Parkers River. We also completed a facade renovation project along Route 28 in cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce. The town faced a series of natural disasters during the year and I feel town employees came through in an outstanding matter coping with the weather of 1996. During the winter months the em- ployees of the highway department as well as our contractors did a stellar job in keeping roads open and cleared. We were also faced with Hurricane Edouard in September 1996 which did not devastate the town but caused significant damage to various areas of our community. We are still waiting for the Governor and legislature to reimburse the town for expenses which were incurred during the hurricane. Fortunately, the Cape damage was minor in Yarmouth and our recovery went smoothly. We have had a number of personnel changes in 1996 and I would like to recognize the good work by those employees. Connie Lobody, who was our Old Kings Highway Historical and Water Quality Advi- sory Committee Secretary, retired in 1996. Connie was a person who spent the necessary time with citizens to guide them through what can be a complicated pro- cess in receiving permits from the town. Her humor and hard work will certainly be missed. Tom Butkowsky, our maintenance person, has done an outstanding job this year working on town buildings. He has saved significant money for the town in the renovation of buildings at Flax Pond, the police station and at town hall. Tom has been an asset to the community and the projects he is thinking of for 1997 will be providing a safer and a more pleasant workplace for employees. Our new Treasurer Wally Lundstrom has made significant improvements in computerizing the Treasurer's Office as well as working on our tax titles and foreclosures. Mr. Lundstrom has made significant progress in the payment of past due taxes to the town and for those properties where the taxes are not paid he has moved swiftly towards foreclosure and even- tual sale of the properties. Joellen Daley, Assistant Town Administrator has overseen major computer upgrades in most town de- partments. The police department, the fire department as well as the town offices have seen improvements which have increased the speed of the machines and increased our efficiency. The libraries and natural re- sources have also had computer upgrades which are necessary as we reach towards the 21st century. Mrs. Daley has also coordinated training for prevention of sexual harassment and has continued to work to save money in the area of our general insurance cover - 9 ages. Pam Barnes and Judy Daigneault have contin- ued to provide excellent service to Joellen, me, the Board of Selectmen and to the public. They have both taken on additionalresponsibilities• in°solving citizen problems and shortening response times to issues raised by our taxpayers. As we look forward to 1997, we have several major projects which will occupy our attention.'The continued landfill closure and re -use will demand a major portion of our time in coordinating not only the work to be done but the financing of that work to have the least impact on the tax rate. A new landfill drop off area and recycling area will be open making it easier for residents to drop off their trash and recyclables. We are working towards a regional approach to disposal of septage waste in 1997. The Yarmouth - Dennis septage plant board of managers are starting to work with the Orleans Tri -Town Plant and others to stabilize the rates charged and to lessen our compe- tition which will, in our opinion, promote efficiencies and allow towns to dispose of septage waste in a cost effective and environmentally sound manner. We are also, in 1997, looking for our first economic opportu- nity area project. In the 1996 annual town meeting authorization was given to designate areas of town for economic development. We now have a strong committee on board to assist new businesses who wish to come into our community and to assist exist- ing businesses in their expansion efforts. While the Board of Selectmen, the Finance Com- mittee, and I are committed to stabilizing the financial health of the community, there are many areas in town government which need to expand as the population, demand for services increases, and regulations from the state and federal governments continue to in- crease. I am optimistic that with the excellent employ- ees and staff in Yarmouth, we will continue to be lead- ers on Cape Cod in finding innovative solutions to problems which face our community. .

McPherson 19 REPORT OF THE TOWN CLERK AND BOARD OF REGISTRARS Another very active year for the Town Clerks office. Each succeeding year shows increases in nearly every category such as births, deaths, and marriages. Golf memberships, once again, increased over the previous year. The Annual Town Election was held April 8th. with Town Meeting on April 9th. In addition to the Annual Meeting, a Special Town meeting was held on April 10th, with Special Town Elections held on May 21st. and July 16th. The Presidential Primary was held on March 5th; State Primary on September 17th; and the State Election on November 5th. The Old King's Highway Regional Historical District Election was held on November 26th. Census forms were mailed December 30th, and are now being returned in droves. Residents are realizing the importance of returning the census forms promptly in order to establish the Town's population that greatly affects our ability in receiving grants or federal and state aid, as well as borrowing.

Christopher Bowman, Chairman Herbert Schnitzer John Howard Charlotte B. Striebel Maureen Rischitelli Board of Selectmen COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT REPORT OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT On May 1, 1995 the staffs of the Planning De- partment, the Board of Appeals, and the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District Committee were reformed as divisions of a newly created Community Development Department. Later the staffof the Con- servation Commission was separated from the Natu- ral Resources Department and now has also joined the new department. The Community Development Department is headed by David Kellogg, who also continues in his capacity as Town Planner. The roles of the individual divisions remain unchanged and their staffs will carry on the duties as before, but will now be under the direction of Mr. Kellogg. The following are the annual reports of the divisions staff and the boards and committees served by that staff: _, REPORT OF THE PLANNING DIVISION The Yarmouth Planning Division continued its busy schedule in 1996. David Kellogg served as Town Planner and Director of the Community Develop- ment Department. Terry Sylvia served as Assistant Town Planner and Jeanne Bullock as Administrative Assistant. Planning Staff continued to provide technical support to the Planning Board, Fair Housing Commit- tee, Route 28 Task Force, and the Growth Policy Ad- visory Council. Staff also continued to assist other town departments, boards, and committees as well as the general public. Throughout the calendar year the Town Planner was assigned the responsibility of coordinating the production of the Town Comprehensive Plan, and with the preparation of the various elements not being pre- pared by consultants. The Assistant Town Planner continued to serve as Planning's designee on the Site Plan Review Team and its vice-chairman. The continuing preparation of the Yarmouth Comprehensive Plan took large blocks of staff time during 1996. By the end of that year approximately 93% of the Plan's first phase was completed, and at- tention was being turned to the second phase and completion of the program. 96 Consultant services had also previously been used to assist in the completion of the Outreach, Coastal Resources, and Recreation and Open Space Elements. In order to expedite the completion of Phase II, work was started at the end of October on the three environmental elements. Nancy Swift was retained as intern to work on them through a program supported by the Cape Cod Community College. Work is under- way on Wetlands, Water Resources, and Wildlife/Plant Habitat Elements. The Recreation and Open Space Element was endorsed by the Conservation Commission, Recre- ation Commission, Planning Board and Board of Se- lectmen after its completion. The Coastal Resources element was completed ,and endorsed by the Plan- ning Board in 1996. At the 1996 Annual Town Meeting a status re- port on the Plan was presented in handout form; a similar document had been presented the previous year, 1995. Over 1500 copies were distributed. The staff continued to work on six plan elements. Five of them, the reference chapters dealing with the Introduction, Outreach, Population Study, Economic Development- Inventory, and Inter -Municipal Coordi- nation had their text and tabular materials completed. The Town Planner continued to prepare and write the Land Use and Growth Management Element, which is the largest and most important chapter, and by the end of the year it was about half completed. During the year the Planning Board (the Local Planning Committee) continued to work cooperatively with Growth Policy Advisory Council on the presenta- tion of the Plan. The Planning Board met with the Harwich Planning Board to discuss the techniques they used in presenting their local Comprehensive Plan. They also attend a workshop sponsored by the Cape Cod Commission to discuss the same matters. In addition the Town Planners of both Falmouth and Dennis met with the Planning Board to discuss their preparation and presentation techniques. The Planning Board and GPAC sponsored a workshop in August on social services planning needs in Yarmouth, and the possibility of adding it to the Comprehensive Plan program. There was only a mini- mal response. It is expected that at least two elements, prob- ably Recreation and Open Space and Coastal Re- sources will be presented to Town Meeting this year seeking its endorsement. The five reference chapters may or may not need similar approvals, but are also ready. Other chapters will be presented to various town meetings as they become available. • REPORT OF THE PLANNING BOARD This past year has been an extremely busy and productive year for the Planning Board. There have been 43 business and workshop meeting. In addition to these regularly scheduled meetings we have at- tended DRI meetings with the Cape Cod Commis- sion, Training Workshops, and meetings with other Yarmouth Town Boards and Committees. The Yarmouth Planning Board also acts as the Local Plan- ning Committee for the Comprehensive Plan. It is with great regret that Michael Strobl, who was a Planning Board member for six years and its Chairman for one year, declined reappointment at the end of his term in July. William Marasco, M.D. was appointed to the Planning Board filling the vacancy left by Mr. Strobl. In December Gabrielle Ramsauer, Vice -Chairperson resigned due to health reasons. She has been a valued member of this Board for four years. The Planning Board held 43 meeting in 1996. Action was taken on 5 Approval Not Required (ANR) Plans, 1 Preliminary Plan, 5 Definitive Subdivision Plans, 1 Confirmatory Release, 2 requests for Lot Releases (17 lots total), and 1 Road Name Change. Planning Board members served on other com- mittees as well: John Shannon, Growth Policy Advi- sory Council, Gloria Smith, Fair Housing Committee, Laurence Barber, Capital Budget Committee. With suggestions from the Zoning Board of Ap- peals we are currently working on clarifying and up- dating the zoning by-laws. We have met with the Route 28 Task Force, GPAC, the Economic Development Committee, the Water Dept., Health and Building In- spector all to deal with zoning issues of an immediate nature to aid in long term planning also to further the progress, of the Comprehensive Plan. As a result of the fall discretionary DRI hearing with the Cape Cod Commission regarding the Exxon Station in South Yarmouth, the station has been up - 97 graded to meet current standards of the zoning by laws, as much as possible which resulted in an improved design for the new station. Given the traffic problems that are beginning to escalate on Station Avenue the Planning Board along with several other boards made several traffic mitiga- tion suggestion to the Zoning Board of Appeals re- garding the variance that was requested for a new Burger King on Station Avenue across from the A&P Plaza. Respectfully submitted, Gloria Smith, Chairman John Shannon, Clerk Laurence Barber Brad Goodwin Patricia Kane William Marasco REPORT OF THE FAIR HOUSING COMMITTEE The Yarmouth Fair Housing Committee is re- sponsible for the oversight and coordination of initia- tives and projects that will increase both the availabil- ity of and the access to affordable housing in Yarmouth. To this end, the Committee continues to work closely with the Yarmouth Housing Authority and Habitat for Humanity. A representative from the Hous- ing Authority sits on our Committee, and one of our FHC members is on Habitat's Board of Directors. ACTIVITIES: Setucket Pines - In response to complaints from residents at Setucket Pines, the Com- mittee met with the residents twice and contacted, on their behalf, the Bay State Construction Company, developers of Setucket Pines. When response to the letters both from the FHC and from the homeowners was unsatisfactory, relevant material was turned over to Town Counsel John Creney for possible action. German Hill - We have been instrumental in facilitating the resale of two homes at German Hill in 1996. Habitat for Humanity - As a result of negotia- tions among all the parties involved, including the Fair Housing Committee, The Town Administrator, and rep- resehtatives of Habitat for Humanity, a landmark agreement was reached, namely that Habitat houses now may be counted in the town's 10% affordable housing inventory. A town -owned lot on Old Townhouse Road previously turned over by Town Meeting vote to the Yarmouth Housing Authority was transferred to Habitat, and a "blitz" house built there in September was turned over to the Robinson family of Yarmouth. Three FHC members took part in the family selection process. Headwaters Drive - The long pending proposal for a Local Initiative Project on Headwaters Drive by Mr. Joseph Dugas was finally, after being radically al- tered and transferred to the control of LIFE, Inc., ap- proved by both the Fair Housing Committee and the Board of Selectmen; and the necessary regulatory agreement was signed. LIFE, Inc., a non-profit cor- poration serving learning disabled young adults, plans to build 12 units (one an administration building), three of which will be affordable housing. Yarmouth Housing Authority - $8800 of a Fed- eral Community Block Development Grant, applied for by the FHC in 1995, was used to improve walk- ways and handicap access at the Long Pond Village Housing for the Elderly Complex. Other - Paul McCracken of Cape Cod 5 Cent Savings Bank met with the FHC on February 26 to discuss possibilities for the rehabilitation of existing run-down housing stock. He indicated that the bank would support such efforts. Television notices and flyers were distributed throughout town, advertising Homebuyer Workshops sponsored by the Cape Cod Clearinghouse. The Town's agreement with the Barnstable County HOME Consortium was renewed in April. Elizabeth Monroe was reappointed representative to the HOME Advisory Council. From 1992-1995, Yarmouth received, for the first-time homeowner down payments, for re-hab programs, and for rental assis- tance, $126,000; 1996 figures are still being tabulated. A notice was put on Channel 19, and flyers were placed_throughouttown, encouraging eligible homeowners to apply to HOME for low-cost rehabili- tation funds. In preparation for consideration of the LIFE pro- posal at Headwaters Drive, members of the FHC met with LIFE's representatives three times and also vis- ited their project in Hyannis. The FHC also met with Headwaters Drive neighbors. FHC met with members of the Route 28 Task Force in October for a productive meeting in which the combining of commercial developments and af- fordable housing was discussed. 98 A representative from the Housing Assistance Corporation met with the FHC in December to dis- cuss ways in which their organization could help us with future projects. In 1997 the FHC will review specific priority projects for which the Committee will seek CDBG and other available funding. HAC or the Yarmouth Hous- ing Authority could act as non -profits in applying for and administering funds. In October the Fair Housing Committee suffered a devastating loss with the death of Bill Wood. Bill Wood, one of the early "founding fathers" of the Fair Housing Committee, was both knowledgeable and committed in his advocacy for affordable housing. Even when very ill towards the end of his life, he kept coming to meetings, and when he couldn't, he was constantly on the phone, giving his advice and ex- pressing concern for our different projects. We will miss him terribly — we do already, and the town can ill afford to lose what he had to offer both in his exper- tise and in his dedication. Meeting and Membership The Fair Housing Committee met 28 times in 1996 and met with the Selectmen twice. No complaints of discrimination were brought before the FHC in 1996. Acknowledgements We wish to thank the following town officials and staff members for their support and assistance dur- ing 1996: David H. Kellogg, Town Planner; Terry N. Sylvia, Assistant Town Planner; Jeanne Bullock, Ad- ministrative Assistant; Mary Ellen Hautanen, Commit- tee Secretary; Robert C. Lawton, Town Administrator Respectfully submitted, Elizabeth Monroe, Chairman Madeline Manchuk, Vice -Chairman Patricia Sinclair, Historian Charles Bergstrom Robert Pike Gwen Gilbert, YHA Representative Gloria Smith, Planning Board Representative Ann McCorkle, Resigned, 1996 Lorraine Wilson -Hendrickson Roger Tuttle, Resigned, 1996 GROWTH POLICY ADVISORY COUNCIL The principal focus of GPAC in 1996 remained the Yarmouth comprehensive plan. This focus has been in two areas: the Planning Department has col- lected much of the data and completed much of the outline of goals and policies for the several compo- nents of the overall plan; and GPAC and the Planning Board have begun disseminating information on the plan through meetings with town departments and committees. The emphasis for 1997 will be further contact with towns people and department heads in order to provide information and obtain feedback on the plan. As of this writing (early January) a townwide meeting is planned for mid- to late- March for an overall pre- sentation and question and answer session on the plan to date. The desire is to have this plan reflect the needs of Yarmouth, and this goal can best be achieved by keeping the people of Yarmouth well informed. The hope is that large numbers of people will show their interest by attending this and other meetings. Other activities of GPAC of the past year have been the beginning of a "quality of life" profile of the town, and updating and revision of the councils charge. We welcome Evelyn Hayes, Pat Sinclair, and Anne Bonacci to the membership, and David Lillie for his time with us. Respectfully submitted, Harris Contos, Chairman Myra Suchenicz, Vice -Chairman Bibe Schnitzer John Shannon Evelyn Hayes Alice Bonacci Patricia Sinclair Jack Howard, Selectmen Representative CONSERVATION COMMISSION During the 1996 calendar year, The Yarmouth Conservation Commission conducted 80 Public Hear- ings pursuant to The Mass. Wetland Protection Act and The Town of Yarmouth Wetland By -Law. The Commission, with the help of the Natural Resources Dept. was able to continue enhancing the entrances to our Conservation areas. Flowering fruit 99 trees, various shrubs and hundreds of bulbs were planted. The Commission looks forward to continuing this effort during 1996. The Commission, through their Administrator, has played a key role in the development of the Town's "Open Space and Recreation Plan." The plan was finished in June of 1996 by our consultant, Mr. Mark Robinson. The plan enabled Yarmouth to be eligible for a variety of grants available from the state. As a direct result, the Town of Yarmouth was awarded 1 million dollars for the development of a "premier" rec- reation facility at the town's landfill. The facility will include new multi -use athletic fields, walking trails, bicycle trails, exercise areas, children's playground, basketball courts, volleyball court, bocci courts and an additional nine hole golf course to Bayberry Hills. The Recreation, Planning and Park Departments also participated by providing countless hours of research and design in the park's and Open Space Plan devel- opment. Through 1996, The Commission's Administra- tor has assisted in the development of the Town's Comprehensive Plan in both the Coastal Resources and Natural Resources elements. He is now, with the help of an intern, overseeing additional environmen- tal plan elements. As in the past years, the Commission wishes to thank the Department of Natural Resources and the Engineering Department for their help throughout 1996. We depend on their expertise. Regretfully, Evelyn McNealy resigned from the Commission in the summer of 1996. Evelyn was a commissioner for several years and was employed as our office secretary from the late 1970's to the early 1990's. Her dedication was outstanding. Evelyn will always be known as "Mother Conservation." Respectfully submitted, William Prinz, Chairman Philip Magnuson, Vice Chairman Evelyn McNealy, Treasurer Mike Hayes, Secretary Bill Fenton Bud Nugent Leo LaBossiere Sandi Clark, Office Secretary Bradford Hall, Administrator REPORT OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS The Board of Appeals operates under the Yarmouth Zoning By-law as well as the Massachu- setts General Laws Chapters 40A and 40B. The re- sponsibilities of the Board of Appeals are to hear and decide petitions/appeals for Special Permits, Vari- ances from the terms of the By-law, and Appeals from the decision of the Building Inspector. The Board con- sists of five regular members, plus alternates, all of whom are appointed by the Selectmen. The Board is scheduled to meet on the second and fourth Thurs- days of each month, at 7:00 p.m. The Zoning Administrators are an arm of the Board of Appeals and are appointed by the Board of Appeals subject to confirmation by the Selectmen. The Zoning Administrators carry out the same functions of the Board of Appeals generally in the less contro- versial or less complex cases. The Board's Zoning Administrators are currently Mr. Les Campbell and Mr. James Robertson. During the year of 1996 the Board of Appeals heard a total of 96 petitions. Of these, 79 were granted (in whole or in part) while 10 were denied. The re- maining 7 were either withdrawn or are still pending. In November, our Public Access Television Sta- tion (Channel 19) began live broadcasting of our meet- ings. They intend to continue to broadcast some, but not all, of our regularly scheduled meetings. We look forward to this opportunity, and hope that this will help more of the Town residents to be more fully informed of these and other important Town meetings. The Board members wish to express their ap- preciation to Mrs. Lorraine Harrington for her dedi- cated service to the Board as our secretary, and wish her the best in her new job, and to welcome our new secretary, Rhonda LaFrance, who comes from the Licensing & Permits Office to be the Board of Appeals new secretary. We do wish to acknowledge the dedicated ser- vice of our Regular and Alternate members, who vol- unteer their time to serve on the Board. All of the Board members also wish to express their respect and grati- tude to Mr. Fritz Lindquist, who retired this year from the Board of Appeals, after many years of dedicated service. The Board members also wish to acknowl- edge the years of service to the Board by Mrs. Joyce Sears, both as the Secretary and as a member of the Board of Appeals, and to express our sincerest con - 100 dolences to the Sears family for Joyce's untimely passing. Respectfully submitted, Regular Members: David S. Reid, Chairman Jerome Sullivan, Vice Chairman Leslie Campbell John Richards James Robertson Alternate Members: Richard Neitz Roger Tuttle Andrew Ryan Joseph Sarnosky Michael O'Loughlin Audrey Miller OLD KING'S HIGHWAY REGIONAL HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMITTEE In 1996, the Old King's Highway Regional His- toric District Committee for the Town of Yarmouth held 24 public hearings during which it acted on 224 Cer- tificates of Appropriateness (denying 12), 60 Exemp- tions and 29 requests for minor changes to previously approved plans. The applications included approvals for 22 sheds, 24 signs and 29 new houses in addition to 7 new buildings (8 residential units) at King's Way. The Old King's Highway Committee had 1 appeal which was rendered in favor of the Committee. 6 in- formational hearings were also helpful in informing the committee on forth coming applications. 26 requests were approved for repainting when changing exterior colors. This is the area which re- quires the most interpretation; owners within the his- toric district with painting violations are particularly difficult to monitor. Structures may be repainted with existing colors without prior approval; however, when changing colors, the owner must file and receive prior approval. In accordance with Chap. 470 of the Acts of 1973, which govern the local committee and regional commission, white is the only color which does not require filing of an application. Following through on the 8 reported violations created some extra work for the committee members, the secretary, and the Building Inspectors. In accor- dance with the regulations of the Act, violations must be backed up by photographs before being reported to the Building Department, which is responsible for enforcing the Act. The OKHC secretary now assists the Building Inspector by sending out citation letters to owners of properties on which there are reported violations. The boundaries of Yarmouth's Old King's High- way Historic District are from the Mid -Cape Highway north to the bay and border to border from the towns of Barnstable and Dennis. There is a continuing effort to inform owners as to exterior structural changes re- quiring OKHC approval, i.e., new construction, alter- ations, additions, demolitions, repainting and chang- ing the colors. After 8 years of excellence Constance Lobody, Old King's Highway Secretary, has retired. Many thanks to Grace Parisi who did a wonderful job of fill- ing in until a permanent secretary was hired. Tammy Jones has been hired as half time Old King's High- way Secretary. Respectfully submitted, Robert N. Miller, Chairman David Moeller, Co -Chair Betsy Antonellis, Member Gordon Clark, Member Richard Gegenwarth, Building Contractor Deborah Gray, Alternate REPORT OF THE HISTORICAL COMMISSION The Yarmouth Historical Commission is estab- lished by Chapter 40, Section 8.D of the Massachu- setts General Laws for the purpose of preservation, protection, and development of the historical and ar- chaeological assets of the town. It may also recom- mend to the Massachusetts Historical Commission, places to be certified as historical or archaeological landmarks. Members terms are 4 years and Associ- ates are appointed annually to provide -specific ex- pertise. In 1996, the Commission held 7 meetings and in accordance to Town Code, Chapter 92, Historic Properties (Demolition Delay Ordinance) the Commis- sion signed off on a total of two demolitions. Baxter Grist Mill, West Yarmouth The Parks Department provided the funds for a part-time seasonal attendant (once again Herb Stone, a resident of Yarmouth), this enabled the mill to open for admission from 1-4 p.m. on weekends, Memorial & Columbus Day, and mid - June through Labor Day. This year dirt filled planters have been placed on the grounds of the mill and the Garden Club of Yarmouth filled them with the appropriate plantings. There has 101 also been an addition of a bench at the Mill. The Mill has been repaired and Stone has been able to dem- onstrate to visitors how the grinding process works. There is also the addition of cornbread recipe cards designed by Wayne Goodwin that are given to the visitors at the Mill and available at Town Hall. Taylor -Bray Farm, Yarmouthport Resident Managers Ellen and Tom Sheret re- ported an increase in visitors, including field trips spon- sors by the local schools. Over 1,000 visitors toured the farm and trails during 1996. The farm population was increased by four new sheep. The farm once again participated in an embryonic science project with John Simpkins and Station Avenue Elementary. The Historical Commission extends its appreciation to the Sheret family for their continued efforts in maintenance and preservation of this circa National Register Site. Judah Baker Windmill, South Yarmouth Under the supervision of the Parks Department and the Commission, efforts continue to try to pre- serve, protect, and restore this 1971 windmill, which is within the South Yarmouth/Bass River Historic Dis- trict. The windmill was open during "Heritage Week 1996" and 50 visitors were enthusiastic about the tour.

Respectfully submitted, Thomas J. Broidrick, Jr. REPORT OF ROUTE 28 TASK FORCE 1996 was another successful year for the Route 28 Task Force with a number of accomplishments. The Task Force met twice monthly during the year, plus contributed to joint meetings with the Board of Selectmen, Planning Board, Growth Policy Advisory Committee, Cape Cod Commission, and Fair Hous- ing Committee. During the annual town meeting a Design Re- view Representative was approved to become a mem- ber of the Site Plan Review Team. Much work and cooperation with other committees and the Chamber of Commerce was involved to allow this new bylaw to be adopted. While our committee's ISTEA grant ap- plication did not make the final cut of refunding ap- proval for South Yarmouth's Village revitalization project, the Task Force continues to search for other funding and donations to incorporate improvements into the proposed state upgrades to the intersection. The Task Force continues to review and com- ment on all applicable Board of Appeals applications and has succeeded in convincing the Board of Ap- peals to require changes in many developments to reduce impact on residential abutters, to improve buff- ers and design and improve the visual impacts on Route 28. The New Design Review representative (Bob Savage, with alternate Dick Martin and Lorens Persson) has been very successful in giving advice to developers making new commercial development attributes to our community. Plans to convert the Bass River Exxon Station to a self serve gas station and convenience store with essentially no site improvements was met with oppo- sition from our committee, the Planning Board, and other committees and residents. An unprecedented, cooperative, movement allowed referral of the pro- posal to the Cape Cod Commission as a D.R.I. which allowed negotiation of a much better and attractive development for the town. The 1997 town meeting will see new zoning ar- ticles which will redefine "problem" areas in the by- laws and ease certain zoning requirements in the His- toric Village of South and West Yarmouth under the new "Village Center District" (VCD) zone. 103 The Task Force continues to work on other cre- ative zoning proposals to improve the looks of Route 28. We also plan some additional tree plantings dur- ing the Spring of 1997. The Task force awarded Certificates of Merit to the following businesses on Route 28 for improve- ments to their properties during 1996: Christy's Colonial Candy Park Inn International Friendly's Restaurant - S. Yarmouth The Black Rock Grille Cape Sojourn Motel Bass River Liquor Store 6 East Main St. (Sousa) Yarmouth Garden Club Massachusetts State Police Michael Ulrich (618 Route 28 ) The Task Force looks forward to a busy sched- ule during 1997 of advancements towards the contin- ued revitalization of Route 28. Respectfully submitted, Richard Martin, Co -Chairman Lillian Orr, Co -Chairman Paul Harrop Lorens Perrson Virginia Persson Robert Savage Bibe Schnitzer COMMUNITY SERVICES REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY SERVICES 1996 was an exciting year for the Department of Community Services. Initially, in an attempt to de- termine who we were, the Division Heads, with input from staff, developed the following Mission Statement: The Department of Community Services strives to develop and promote a variety of ser- vices that enhance quality of life for citizens of all ages and attract visitors year after year. Using our diverse resources, services are provided on an equal basis in the form of recreation, information, education and environmental management and conservation. Second, the department experienced a period of transition. One portion of the transition related to the override for the Libraries and the town assuming ownership of the Senior Center, which will be dis- cussed later. The other portion related to the five divi- sions becoming one department. With regard this portion, the Division Heads took some time to define the Department's strengths and weaknesses. Our strengths included our personnel, diversity, creativity and flexibility. Conversely, our weaknesses included our physical separation, lack of understanding of each others organizations, our competition for resources and our fear of being perceived as a "fluffy" depart- ment. By understanding our opportunities; which in- clude, grants, new technologies, sharing resources and public communication and involvement, and, by understanding our threats; which include, weather, state and federal mandates and fiscal restraints, the Division Heads plan to overcome the weaknesses defined in the transition process. With a Mission Statement developed and the transition underway, the third area of concentration for the Department was the coordination of activities within the five divisions. A summary of the main projects is provided below. Additional detail is provided in each division's individual report. Council on Aging - Many of the Seniors fre- quenting the Senior Center may not have been aware of the fact that the Town took ownership of the build- ing at the beginning of FY97. The wonderful programs continued and several familiar faces remained to pro- vide services and assist the Town's Senior popula- 104 tion. The Senior Center Transition Committee, The Friends of Yarmouth Seniors, Inc., and many volun- teers and employees, worked diligently to prepare the Town to take ownership of the building. The under- taking was enormous but in the end, was executed very smoothly. A dedication of the building was held on September 9, at which time all those who were instrumental during the original constructed of the fa- cility and those who assisted with the transition to Town ownership, were honored and thanked by the Board of Selectmen. For the remainder of 1996, the process of ana- lyzing what was projected as opposed to what was actually happening at the Senior Center commenced. The Transition Committee's report was an excellent guide as the projections contained within were almost always accurate. Golf - The revenue generated by the Golf Divi- sion is in the form of user fees. In 1996, the fees for greens as well as memberships were increased in an effort to offset the costs of some necessary projects. The Golf Division spends and enormous amount of time tracking its costs, both direct and indirect, to be certain the general taxpayers are not subsidizing the division. If the division completes the fiscal year with an ending balance, the funds can be used to offset general municipal operations. So far, there has always been a positive ending balance. The major project in the Golf Division this year has been the landfill closure. Many hours were spent with consultants on the design of the nine holes that will be constructed at the landfill site, along with other much needed recreational facilities. The additional nine holes will expand the playability of Bayberry Hills Golf Course and generate additional revenue for the Town. Both the Golf and Recreation Divisions have worked together in planning for the new facility as well as on determining how to best notify the residents of the proposed project. Libraries - As a result of the hard work of Li- brary staff and volunteers, the request for a general override of approximately $178,000 passed at the ballot in 1996. The Town Library Board developed a five year plan which was presented and approved by the voters. Some highlights included converting the South Yarmouth Library into a full-service Library while maintaining the West Yarmouth and Yarmouthport Libraries as village libraries. New employees were hired, some with specialized skills, and a computer lab was installed for public access as well as a train- ing center for town employees at South Yarmouth lo- cation. Natural Resources - Law Enforcement, Shell- fish, Animal Control and Harbormaster/Waterways are the components that make up this diverse division. On a given afternoon, the Director can be served with an injunction to stop a dredging project, have an of- ficer responding to an illegal hunting call and another transporting a loose dog to an animal shelter, as well as posting a rain closure for a shellfish area. Along with the normal, diverse activities of the division, projects were commenced in 1996: Public Education - The Hyannis Park and Pine Acres Civic Associations, the Dennis Men's Forum, the Horatio Alger Career Day, as well as the Boy and Girls Scouts of America, were visited by division staff and discussions on various issues were held. Waterways - The new Barnstable County dredge became operational and will be completing work in Yarmouth depending on its schedule in 1997. A de- sign of a beach nourishment program was initiated in the Hyannis Park area of Yarmouth this year, as a result of dredging of Hyannis Harbor. Finally, the Pump Out Boat, which was funded through a grant, arrived and was operational in 1996. Upweller unit - Along with members of the J -Tech Fishermen retaining program, the division constructed an upweller.unit. The unit will allow the Town to stretch the propagation funds and provide more shellfish to replenish the stock being harvested. In addition, the Town will receive shellfish seed as payment for over- seeing the program. Recreation - Handicapped accessibility and planning for the landfill reuse were the main projects addressed by the Recreation Division in 1996. With regard to handicapped accessibility, the Town used a portion of its Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funds to continue with the improvements to make our recreation facilities handicapped accessible. Improve- ments were made at the Flax Pond recreation area, Parkers, Sea Gull and Bass River beaches and the Meadowbrook conservation area. The landfill reuse was the other major project the Recreation Division dealt with in 1996. Numerous 105 hours were spent with consultants designing the rec- reation section of the site. Soccer and baseball fields, a playground and walking trails are some of the com- ponents that will be contained within the facility. Along with the Golf Commission, the Recreation Commis- sion will continue to work to educate the public about all of the components of the proposed facility. In summary, the Department of Community Ser- vices developed a mission statement, moved through a transition period and coordinated a host of activities within the five divisions in 1996. Appreciation is ex- tended to all of the employees and volunteers that worked together to make the Department successful. 1997 is certain to be another exceptional year! Respectfully submitted, Joellen J. Daley, Director REPORT OF THE COUNCIL ON AGING The Yarmouth Council on Aging (town sponsored and funded) is in its 29th year of service to the se- niors in the town of Yarmouth. The growth and ex- pansion of its services have been equaled by the in- crease of the senior population in the community. The Council on Aging is pleased to be able to serve these seniors with the many programs and services offered. Basically, our health services include Blood Pres- sure, Diabetic, Audiometric and Glaucoma screening clinics throughout the year. Along with these services, we have a volunteer Psychotherapist and a Nutrition- ist who will meet with individuals on a one to one ba- sis to treat and advise. Our Shine Health Insurance Counselor and her assistant meet weekly by appoint- ment to advise and assist seniors with medical bills or to offer information in selecting supplemental health insurance plans. This has proven to be a most valu- able service to seniors who all experience some prob- lem one time or another in this area. Other services pertinent to one's health are Re- flexology and Pedicare. These, along with Aerobics and Yoga classes are all geared to act as preventive medicine in a senior's life. Along with health amenities the seniors have re- quests for legal, financial and income tax assistance. These services are all offered on a one to one basis and offered to all seniors in the town of Yarmouth. There are many support groups who choose to convene at the center at various times, however, Ar- thritis -Self -Help, Laryngectomy and Alcoholics Anony- mous meet on a regular basis. Many seniors enjoy the educational classes of- fered which include contract and duplicate bridge, men's cooking, needlepoint, quilting, wood carving, low -relief carving, oil painting, stenciling, astrology, chair caning, porcelain dolls, knitting, ballroom and line dancing and Romance languages (Spanish, French, Italian). The recreational activities offered include: bridge, cribbage, movies, poker, bingo, pool, chess, solos group, Seashell quilters group, Wisdom Institute lec- tures, golf clinic, walking group and fun luncheons. A manicurist is available weekly and took sharpening and screen repair services are also available at the center to accommodate seniors. 106 "Senior Dining" is offered three days a week for anyone wishing to have a nourishing lunch and pleas- ant company at noon preceded by a bingo game on Wednesdays. An "Outreach" person is at the center to call on any senior who is homebound and wishes assistance with any needed service. She also enlists persons for telephone lifeline, companionship program, S.S.I. and Fuel Assistance. A monthly newsletter announcing all activities and services is sent to all registered seniors in the town of Yarmouth. Any person 59 years of age or older may stop by the senior center on Forest Road and register and they will receive the newsletter entitling them to all services. The staff for the Council on Aging includes one full time and three part time personnel with approxi- mately fifty volunteers offering various types of nec- essary service.

Wilson John Faldetta Simon Coren, M.D. Margaret Matson George Shirley Nancy D. Cross, Director REPORT OF THE YARMOUTH GOLF COMMISSION The Yarmouth Golf Commission is happy to re- port that we had another successful year in FY96. Financial Results Comparison_ Total Revenue Total Expenditures Budget Surplus FY95 FY96 $1,979,730 $2,060,082 $852,383 $1,039,954 $1,127,347 $1,020,128 Increases in revenue were attributed to an in- crease in membership fees and partially to an increase in green fees the first of the year. An uncontrollable factor — weather — was a factor that would have re- sulted in a more significant increase. The increase in fees revenue was added to the offset receipt account. This account is the avenue the Golf Department uses to implement programs that otherwise wouldn't be done through the regular operational budget. Two of the larger projects — cart path maintenance and sand trap renovations — have greatly enhanced the play - ability and aesthetics of the golf courses. Superintendent Ed Nash and his crews have, once again, done yeomen jobs in maintaining our golf courses in such conditions that warrant visitors re- turning to Yarmouth to play our courses. Feedback from both residents and visitors regarding course con- ditions were very positive: reinforcing that our invest- ment and efforts to improve our courses are working. Work on the landfill project has been ongoing with many meetings every month throughout the year. The architect firm of Ault, Clark & Assoc. are continu- ally refining the layout to comply with the capping re- quirements. The building architect, Brown & Lindquist, Inc., was brought on board to draw up plans for build- ing renovations and new buildings associated with the project. The Golf Commission continues to support youth golf programs and tournaments in the Town of Yarmouth. Under the capable direction of Ron Hewins and his staff, many youngsters are given a profes- sional introduction to the game of golf. The highlight of this year's program was the clinic given by Jim Hallet, a former member of the PGA tour, and Jason Caron, a participant of the Hurricane mini -tour. Both Jim and Jason are D -Y graduates and played golf throughout high school. The Cape Cod Schoolboy 107 Championship (Walter Hewins Trophy) and a Cape Cod NEPGA junior tournament were also held at Bay- berry Hills. Plans for a caddy program are under way and an after-school program has been started by Don Deay. Chairman Irwin (Red) Grange has moved to Florida and Bob Sullivan has also resigned. We ap- preciate all their hard work and wish them well in the future. George Morgenroth and Ed Moreschi have moved up from their alternates positions to replace Red and Bob. Bob Lovely and Michael Duffy were appointed to alternate positions. .. Don Deay has added personnel to his staff in his continuing effort to offer more service to the golf- ing public. His recommendations have been well re- ceived by the commission and the changes have been in the best interests of the Town. The commission is working diligently to support the Town's vision of bal- ancing quality of golf for our residents while support- ing local businesses with a quality of golf that will en- courage tourists to come to Yarmouth's golf courses. We are looking forward to another profitable and successful year in FY97. We are also working very hard with the Recreation Department on the landfill golf/recreation project and hope you all vote yes on this proposal.

At the request of the Board of Select- men, the Town Library Board developed a five year plan of service which was endorsed by the Select- men, and approved at town meeting and in a proposi- tion 2 1/2 override. The plan called for maintaining West Yarmouth and Yarmouth Port libraries at cur- rent levels of service and the creation of a full-service library et South Yarmouth. The goals of the plan in- clude increased hours, more staff, improved children's and information service, computer technology and more books and other library resources. Since July 1, 1996, we have hired children's and "reference specialists as well as other support staff; created a warm and inviting area in the lower level of the South Yarmouth Library to expand children's ser- vices; extended the hours of the South Yarmouth Li- brary by 13 each week, including Sundays; and opened a computer resource center on the first floor, complete with six public access computers. A unique feature of the computer center is that it doubles as a training center for municipal employees when the li- brary is closed and at other scheduled times, thereby stretching municipal tax dollars. Volunteer computer tutors are also available for scheduled sessions with interested citizens to teach beginning computer and Internet skills. Newly acquired information data bases for investors and small businesses; subscriptions to the Boston Globe, Sunday New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Investors Business Daily and local newspapers, have brought new faces to the library. Telephone requests for information from municipal department heads and officials, and even the U.S. Post Office staff, indicate an awareness of growing resources and improved information services. An ex- panding clientele keeps us all on our toes. Building renovations and new furnishings at the South Yarmouth Library have accompanied many of these changes, thanks to the support of the South Yarmouth Library Association. In Yarmouth Port, Library Association trustees completed a new and enlarged parking facility and refurbished the exterior of the Yarmouth Port Library. They also installed a new circulation desk and rede- signed the interior space. Library Association trust- ees in West Yarmouth continue to actively supplement and enrich the library program, having contributed a 108 second computer and Internet access, among other more traditional library resources. Special projects this year have included a com- puter -tutor program in cooperation with the Dennis - Yarmouth High School made possible through a Mas- sachusetts Cultural Council grant; a Cycles and Sea- sons program that allowed us to build a life-sized ado- lescent finback whale, develop a science collection and create seven science kits for use with middle- schoolers through a Library Services and Construc- tion Act grant; an old-fashioned ice cream social at the West Yarmouth Library sponsored by the trustees of all three libraries; annual book and bake sales at each of the libraries; and monthly programs at each of the libraries sponsored by library Friends organi- zations. In appreciation for all the good work of the many volunteers and supporters of our libraries, the library staff held an informal Christmas supper at the South Yarmouth Library that was attended by representa- tives from all three libraries. We wish to emphasize the importance of community support and gratefully acknowledge the spirit of cooperation and goodwill that have characterized the growth and development of libraries in Yarmouth throughout the year. Circulation and Reference Transactions: Books Periodicals Audio -Visual Reference Questions Total Transactions Respectfully submitted, Marcia Shannon Director of Libraries 149,487 8,620 32,122 5,790 196,019 REPORT OF THE NATURAL RESOURCES DEPARTMENT Law Enforcement For the year 1996, the Department of Natural Resources checked a total of 361 sportsmen and sports women while on patrol. Of that number 148 were hunting, 213 were fishing on fresh water ponds and the salt water shoreline throughout the Town of Yarmouth. There were 24 violation notices written in addi- tion there were 73 unrelated actions taken by Natural Resource Officers. In the area of shellfish, our department con- ducted 213 shellfish investigations and wrote 22 vio- lation notices. In 1996, the Department of Natural Resources responded to a total of 1,983 calls. During the year of 1996 there was an increase in the amount of wildlife sightings throughout the town. The population of coy- otes has increased. Coyotes feed primarily on small rodents such as mice, moles and rabbits. This de- partment responded to over 500 calls for injured rac- coons and skunks. This year most of these animals were suffering from distemper. There were 203 con- firmed cases of distemper in raccoons and 78 skunks confirmed. This disease is natures way of managing wildlife population. These animals should not be ap- proached by the public as they can be aggressive at times. Although distemper is not hazardous to hu- mans, the public should be cautious and contact the proper authorities such as Natural Resources for a prompt recovery of these animals. The Department of Natural Resources has placed another 298 tire units on the offshore tire reef bringing the total to 599. The beneficial effects from the tires placed on the reef could be seen this sum- mer by the increased number of recreational fishing boats as well as a number of Charter boats fishing over or near the reef. Special thanks and apprecia- tion to the Cape Cod Salty's and the J -Tech program for all their help. This department proposes to con- tinue to add to the reef. A new Osprey nesting pole was erected on Parker's River near the Sea Holly Fishing Pier on Route 28. The nesting pole was occupied within weeks and two young birds were fledged. This brings the number of nests poles in the Town of Yarmouth to 10. 109 The Long Pond Herring Run was very produc- tive this year. Major improvements have been done to improve water levels and water controls. The wet spring did also help with this success. Trail maintenance improvements to Conserva- tion areas have been conducted. Management plans are in place to complete land management and wild- life habitat improvements to most Conservation ar- eas. The department monitors and maintains streams and clears them of obstructions. This proved to be crucial during the fall of 1996. Several significant rain events occurred and levels of ponds as well as ground water rose and inundated a number of homes as well as .threatening many more. Maintaining and releas- ing water levels helped alleviating some problems as fast as nature would allow.

Conrad brings ex- tensive knowledge in the field of shellfish and has new innovative ideas to improve shellfish habitat and shell- fish populations. Starting this year, the Town of Yarmouth has a Shellfish Advisory board that will be assisting the Shellfish Constable and working on vari- ous projects to improve the resources in town. This committee may be involved in writing grant propos- als, coordinating volunteer water quality testing and is presently involved with assisting the Shellfish De- partment in revisions of the Town's Aquaculture Lease Regulations. Many areas in the town continue to be classi- fied as seasonally approved for the harvest of shell- fish by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (D.M.F.). Water quality monitor- ing continues to be a top priority of this department and D.M.F. Through hard work and dedication, an additional 12,000 acres of possible shellfish habitat has been taken out of a management closure and reclassified to an approved status. We are slowly seeing improvements to our ma- rine water quality and we are greatful to all those in- volved with this process. Most of Yarmouth's shellfish beds are at least seasonally approved for the harvest of shellfish, with the exception of Hallets Mill Pond, • Lone Tree Creek and Bass Creek in Yarmouthport. 110 Recreational (Family) shellfishing was open in Follins Pond, Bass Hole, Mill Creek, Lewis Bay from New Hampshire Street to Colonial Acres, Pine Island and Uncle Roberts Cove. In 1996 a total of 12,000 bushels of adult quahogs were planted in Lewis Pond and approximately 400 bushels of adult quahogs were planted at Georgetown Flats. 60,000 3mm seed qua- hogs were purchased and raised in cages in Pine Is- land or the towns upweller located on Parkers River. 32,000 quahog seed measuring 15mm were planted in Lewis Pond. 20,000 seed quahogs measuring 10mm were planted in Pine Island Cove and 8,000 6 - 8mm seed were wintered over at the Environmental Systems Laboratory at Woods Hole, Massachusetts to be planted in the spring of 1997. The Yarmouth Shellfish Department has worked with the J -Tech Fish- ermen Retraining Program. The department con- structed an upweller unit. This upweller unit was used for department shellfish as well as with two J -Tech students. The upweller unit will allow the town to stretch the propagation funds and provide more shell- fish to replenish the stock being harvested. The town will receive a determined amount of shellfish seed as payment for time and effort put into the training pe- riod. Commercial harvest of soft shell clams was opened in Follins Pond and Bass River North of the route 6 bridge area. This area was opened for a total of 56 fishing days from May 15th to October 31st un- der the conditionally approved status based on rain- fall. The fall of 1996 has been a good scallop sea- son for Recreational and Commercial fishermen. This may be a direct result in the shellfish propagation scal- lop program. To date, 905 bushels of scallops have been harvested and an estimation of 1100 bushels total for the 1996/97 scallop season. 1996 SHELLFISH STATISTICS PERMITS Recreational 890 @ $10/each Non -Resident 8 @ $50/each Non -Resident 1 day 0 @ $20/each Commercial 46 @ $150/each Commercial Eel 5 @ $25/each TOTAL PERMIT SALES: $8,900.00 $ 400.00 $ 0.00 $6,900.00 $125.00 $16,325.00 PRIVATELY LEASED SHELLFISH AREAS $181.25 $250.00 $75.00 $125.00 Great Island Oyster Co.

Yarmouth residents are reminded the law requires both dogs and cats to be vaccinated against rabies and that dogs must be licensed yearly while cats are re- quired to wear their rabies tag on their collar. In Massachusetts, 1,266 cats were submitted to the state lab to be tested for rabies in 1996. Most of these cats were owned but untagged cats that had been involved in bites. Had these cats been wearing identification, their lives could have been saved. The 9th Annual Blessing of the Animals contin- ues to be a favorite event of both young and old, pet owner and non pet owner alike and was attended by well over 200 animal lovers. Special thanks to Salty's Diner and Kaleidoscope Imprints for sponsoring the event. This year's Blessing was dedicated to Laurence C. MacArthur, who was the principal of South Yarmouth Elementary School for 14 years. Laurence MacArthur was a humane educator in the true sense of the word, being a model of kindness and compas- sion to his 350 some odd children. He understood teaching kindness to animals, encouraged kindness to your classmate and to your neighbor. Larry wel- comed the Animal Control Department's Humane Education classes yearly. He died in his home in Au- gust of 1995 and will be dearly missed. Those attending this years Blessing of the Ani- mals witnessed the 1 year reunion of Gracie and her puppies. Gracie had been picked up in violation of Yarmouth's leash law and gave birth to 9 puppies at the Animal Inn in Forestdale, where the Town of Yarmouth shelters their impounded dogs. The Animal Inn's staff lavished love and attention on Gracie and her puppies until they were adopted through the help of the MSPCA. Thanks also to photographers Steve 111 Heaslip of the Cape Cod Times and Sherry Pires of Cape Cod Community Newspapers, for capturing the essence of the Blessing of the Animals on film with both humor and compassion. The Pet Food Donation Program, which Yarmouth Animal Control introduced in 1993, has en- joyed continued success. The program has grown tre- mendously and now provides assistance to senior citi- zens in cooperation with elder services. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the program, a donation box is located at the Station Avenue A&P . Pet food is collected and made available to fixed income families and pet owners facing difficult financial times. A mass mailing was sent to all dog owners in May inviting pet owners to attend our annual rabies clinic as well as reminding dog owners of the need to license their dog each year by June 30th to avoid late fees and fines. 186 pet owners attended the rabies clinic. Thanks Veterinary Associates of Cape Cod! We continued our Humane Education classes at the elementary school level and Officers Schiller and Farmer participated in library hour at the Mattacheese Middle School in honor of National Woman's Month. Our heartfelt thanks to the volunteers and staff of both local animal shelters, the Animal Rescue League in Brewster and the Massachusetts Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals located in Centerville. Thank you for sheltering Yarmouth's strays and giving them a second chance. You truly are the "Guardian Angels of the Unwanted". If our department could have one wish granted in the upcoming year, it would be that all pet owners would keep identification on both their dog and their cat. It's their ticket home if they're ever lost, injured or in need. We sincerely hope that 1997 is a safe and happy year for both you and your pet.

Minor improve- ments have been made to all town owned marinas. Waiting lists still exist for all town owned facilities. Moderate damage was sustained to most town facili- ties due to Hurricane Eduardo. We would like to thank all boaters in the Town of Yarmouth that abided by the 112 early warnings from the Department of Natural Re- sources to remove boats from moorings and slips. This minimized all damages that may have occurred if boats were not removed or secured with hurricane moor- ings in safe harbors. We hope in the future that all boaters abide by these warnings. Boating activities in 1996 increased by 25% over 1995. In 1996 the Harbormaster Department had a dramatic increase in problems with personal water crafts (jet skis and jet boats). These personal water crafts must abide by all boating laws. The department focused on boating safety and conducted 228 safety checks at sea and 138 safety checks at boat ramps. The Town of Yarmouth, through a grant under the Clean Vessels Act, has been able to acquire a Pump Out Boat which has been used to pump out 900 boats. This boat will pump out the septic storage tanks of recreational boaters at no cost. Evidence of the success of this program has been proven through water quality testing. Marine waste has diminished and this has been documented through comments of beach goers and waterfront property owners. We are looking forward to another good season in 1997.

Mark Robinson our consultant. This valuable and 0 workable tool for planning and preserving Yarmouth's Open Space also served as a major component in the application for an Open Space and Recreation Grant. This One Million Dollar Grant was received and will be used to help off -set costs for the reuse of the Landfill upon closure. *'"****GRAND TOTAL HARBORMASTER****** *J48* = 643 *J49* = 468 Respectfully submitted, Karl W. von Hone Natural Resource Director 113 Diversity within the Recreation Department has allowed for several other projects to become reality. Handicapped improvements for recreation facility ac- cessibility has been the major focus for several years. Yarmouth now has a newly constructed fully acces- sible Conservation Walk -way at Meadowbrook Road to Swan Pond. This beautiful structure spans 350' through the marsh to a deck and sitting area on the water. Along with this structure another walk -way and deck have been completed at our Flax Pond Recre- ation Area. This new facility will allow full access to the Pond as well as provide a wonderful sitting area. In the Spring of 1997 two more major structures will be constructed. One a Bass River Beach where two decks and walk -ways with ramps will be installed. The second walk -way will be constructed at Seagull Beach. This new walk -way will allow full access to the high water mark where a portable walk -way will then be placed to allow full access into the water. Yarmouth has been diligently addressing A.D.A. issues and is proud to be a leader in providing our total community with these wonderful new facilities. The funding for all of these project has been made available through the Housing and Urban Development Entitlement Grant. Landfill Closure and Reuse potential has con- sumed a tremendous amount of time. However, this time has been well invested for the future planning of this State of the Art Multi -use Recreation Facility as well as a 9 hole extension to the Bayberry Golf Course. As we all approach Town Meeting, our hope is that the community will seize the moment and vote to approve funding so that the landfill reuse component can become reality. Now to the core of Recreation. Our Youth programs continue to grow in size, improve in quality and mature in philosophy. Recreation's primary goal is to provide fun and mean- ingful activities for ALL participants of any and all abili- ties. In order to accomplish these goals we must rely on many non -paid volunteer program leaders. These volunteers make an essential and valuable contribu- tion to our youth and adult populations. Without them, many of our programs would simply not exist. A high- light of some of the recreation programs that we offer are as follows: • Flax Pond Summer Adventure Activities Pro- grams - Full day and Half day, which are enjoyed by more than 500 children. This is a self-supporting pro- gram which is financed through user fees. It includes swimming, tennis, arts and crafts, music and drama, as well as many other fun-packed activities. The chil- dren love it! • Sailing - The summer is also the time for our very popular filled -to -capacity sailing program run by our Sailing Coordinator, Jim Hoar. Jim has done an outstanding job providing excellent sailing instruction to children and adults alike. • Swimming Program - The summer also is the time when are beaches and ponds are the site of our many swimming programs which continue to be among our most popular Summer activities with more than 350 participants. • Tennis Program - Our instructional tennis pro- gram continues to grow every year and draws partici- pants from all age groups. The Courts at Flax Pond, Sandy Pond and the Dennis -Yarmouth High School are where this program takes place. • The Beaches - The Recreation Department is responsible for staffing 13 beaches and ponds from late May until Labor Day. Approximately 46 lifeguards staff these beaches and respond to a variety of situa- tions, including emergency rescues, heat stroke, car- diac arrest, lacerations, and crowd control. A contin- gency within our lifeguard staff are certified Water Safety Instructors who teach the various levels in our swimming classes. • Fall Soccer - More than 500 children, boys and girls, ages six through fourteen, participate in Youth Soccer at municipal and school district fields. 114 • Basketball - Late fall and winter our youth bas- ketball program is in full swing. This program is for boys and girls in grades 3 through 8. The 3rd & 4th grade program is now divided into a girl's league & a separate boy's league. The 5th through 8th grade programs are separate for boys and girls. We are us- ing all of the gym time that has been made available to us at all of the area elementary, middle, and high schools. The separate girl's program started in 1994 and continues to show substantial growth in partici- pation. In addition to the Youth Basketball, we offer adult basketball and volleyball programs. • Springtime - We have 325+ boys and girls play- ing baseball. Participants range in age from 5 to 9 years old. Additionally, there is a girls' softball pro- gram which runs from the late Spring through early Summer. The Recreation Commission would like to thank the Recreation Director for her hard work within our community and for her energy, enthusiasm and com- mitment to our programs which enhance the lives of those who live here.

FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT "We will do our best with our capabilities and resources to protect people and property in Yarmouth from harm." Activity Levels 6098 Responses to 4329 Emergency Incidents Emergencies by Location: S. Yarmouth Yarmouthport W. Yarmouth Fire and Related: Emergency Medical 500 174 320 1,643 517 1,095 The Yarmouth Fire Department also responded to 89 mutual aid incidents in 1996. The 4329 emer- gency incidents in 1996 were an increase of 113 over the previous year. Improvements: The Fire Department received a new Emergency One rescue pumper with increased capacity to com- bat fires. The pumper is equipped with two foam sys- tems. The class "A" foam system provides improved efficiency in fighting fires in ordinary combustibles and the class "B" foam system supplies foam for fighting flammable liquid fires. The Town of Yarmouth received $398,008.43 from ambulance billing. This is an increase of $7,939.42 over fiscal year 1995. Ambulance billing rates have been increased to the Medicare allowable rates for basic and advanced life support effective January 1, 1997. The anticipated increase in revenue will be used to hire additional firefighter/medics, do preventive maintenance on the EMS vehicles, and purchase medical supplies. Fire Prevention Bureau: The Fire Prevention Bureau identified children playing with matches/lighters and cooking accidents as the two primary causes for fires in Yarmouth. Lt. Raiskio was one of the founders of the Barnstable County Juvenile Fire Setters Intervention Program established to reduce the number of fires started by juveniles. 116 The Fire Prevention Bureau also increased the number of public awareness programs targeted at reducing the incidence of fires caused by cooking accidents. The Fire Prevention Education Program that had been presented in the schools for the past 16 years was reviewed and updated. The program was im- proved by making the curriculum grade specific for each year. Three additional firefighters joined the team presenting the program to the schools, and four mem- bers of the team attended the State Fire Educators Seminar for the latest training and materials. The Yarmouth Fire Department Fire Prevention Bureau was awarded its second SAFE (Student Awareness Fire Education) grant by the State. The funds will be used to support the Fire Prevention Edu- cation Program presented in the schools.

Richard Carroll is an experi- enced Police and Fire Dispatcher and Dr. James Clayton is a retired Emergency Room Physician. Both of the new members are bringing valuable knowledge and experience to the Committee. The Committee wishes to thank Tom Carr for his service since the inception of the committee. The committee met 14 times in 1996. Several selectmen met with the Committee during the course of the year and the Committee was active in following Fire Department issues by attendance at Selectmen and Town Meetings. Major items discussed at Committee meetings included: 1. The outside audit report as it related to ambu- lance billing, and suggestions on methods of comply- ing with the audit report's recommendations. 2. Methods of staffing an ambulance at the Yarmouthport Fire Station 3. Billing of ancillary fees and billing at Medi- care allowable rates. 4. Billing for mutual aid responses. 5. Continued use by the public of the old 7 digit emergency telephone number. Chairman George Shirley continued to review the ambulance billing receipts and the monthly reports to ensure that the account is accurate. Respectfully submitted, George Shirley Robert Tucker Dr. James Clayton Richard Carroll MUNICIPAL FINANCE MUNICIPAL FINANCE DEPARTMENT Yarmouth's Finance Department is comprised of several divisions, including Accounting, Assessing, Collector and Treasurer. The department's focus is customer oriented, with a commitment to improved quality of service. Efforts continue toward improving systems and performances, while encouraging a cli- mate of teamwork within the organization. The main objective for 1996 was improving cash and receivable management. In order to meet the Fi- nance Department's objective, the division heads met weekly and analyzed the tax title receivable. All prop- erty owners were contacted that owed outstanding taxes. This effort produced payments and payment plans which reduced the receivables, thus increasing the cash flow. In July, Yarmouth was reviewed by Moody. Moody's rating committee assigned the rating of A-1 which maintained Yarmouth's high bond rating. One key credit factor was Yarmouth's favorable financial operations and strong liquidity. Another key to finan- cial performance is collection rates which have re- mained strong because the town aggressively places delinquent properties into tax title. The high bond rat- ing will reduce costs associated with the debt needed to convert the closed landfill to a golf/park facility. In order to improve cash flow, Deputy Assessor Matt Zurowick was able to set Yarmouth's tax rate earlier this year enabling Collector Fran Wood, to send out tax bills before October 1. Treasurer Wally Lundstrom states this was advantageous to Yarmouth since he did not need to borrow any money to pay warrants. The team did a great job in order to meet their goals. The Finance Department wishes to express its thanks to department heads and town employees for their cooperation in making this year a successful one.

These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the Town of Yarmouth, Massachusetts' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditina Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. The Town of Yarmouth does not maintain records of the historical cost of its general fixed assets. Accordingly, a Statement of General Fixed Assets has not been provided as required by generally accepted accounting principles. In our opinion, except for the effects of the matters described in paragraph three of this report, the general purpose financial statements referred to in the first paragraph present fairly in all material respects, the financial position of the Town of Yarmouth, MassachGsetts as of June 30, 1996, and the results of its operations and cash flows of its proprietary fund types and nonexpendable trust funds for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In accordance with Government Auditina Standards, we have also issued reports dated September 24, 1996 on our consideration of the Town of Yarmouth's internal control structure and on its compliance with laws and regulations.

the data will be utilized in the upcoming revaluation of all properties next year. The task was an enormous undertaking and without the dedication of the Assessor's Office staff it could not have been completed. I would like to thank Carole, Marty, Cheryl, Jen, and Nancy for their hard work on this project. The Assessor's Office would like to offer a special note of gratitude to Joan Desloges who volunteered her time on this project and helped make it a success. This was the first year that the tax rate was set before October 1st, which ensured that the Town would not have to borrow monies in anticipation of taxes. The Classification Report, which the Board of Assessors submitted to the Selectmen this year, re- flected little change from the previous year. The rev- enue figures stated residential at 73.80% and com- mercial at 26.20%. The residential share of the ap- propriations calculation was 73.45% and the commer- cial share was 26.55%. This indicates that commer- cial is paying their fair share. The tax rate was set at $12.00 per $1,000 of value.

With the former Treasurer resigning, it proved to be a challenging and changing time. The appointment of new treasurer in December has gone smoothly. The Town continues to maintain a conservative investment practice, yet it has developed new ideas for invest- ing, such as consolidating its Trust and Escrow ac- counts into a municipal concentration account pro- viding a more favorable rate of interest. Good news, the Town did not need to borrow in anticipation of tax revenue. During the year most of the day to day tasks have been computerized and look forward to new enhancement in the new year. The Treasurer has been very aggressive in col- lection of tax title accounts with payments continuing to increase, but so have additions to the collections. Thank you to all who have taken advantage of a pay- ment plan and/or paying their accounts in full. Any- one interested, please contact the office. I would like to thank the staff for their dedication and hard work, especially in the transition period.

White Inspector of Buildings REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH overflowing sewage, rodents, and housing complaints of overcrowding, noise, no heat or no water, etc. The 59 department also performed soil analyses to determine 47 suitability of building lots. The Health Department staff 17 reviewed all Building Department permit applications 36 to ensure adequacy of the septic system as required 7 by State law, prior to the issuance of any building per - 28 mit. The staff also attended weekly Commercial Site 39 Plan Review meetings to ensure that all new construe - 9 tion and renovations met with all health codes, i.e., 15 septic systems, groundwater protection, etc. The 28 Board of Health continued implementation of the 9 town's Water Resources Protection Study (I.E.P.- 24 1988) recommendations through inspections and ad - 18 ministration of the Underground Gasoline Storage 15 Tank Regulation, Hazardous Waste Regulation, Sub- surface Sewage Regulations, and the Nitrate -Nitro- gen Loading Regulations. The department offered public assistance, as related to septic system main- tenance and location, along with requiring develop- ers of large scale projects to submit Environmental Impact Reports to ensure protection to the town's public water supply wells. The year 1996 again witnessed the continua - 'tion of many Board of Health programs designed for protection of the environment and public health, in addition to implementing several new programs. The new State Title V Septic Regulations took effect March 31,1995 and continues to inundate the :department with inquiries, requests for permits and final septic inspections. The new Title V Regulations also require the department to review and comment on septic system evaluation reports on every Real Estate sales transaction. The Health Department continued to oversee 'three grants during 1996. The first grant was from the State Department of Public Health for the department to discuss tobacco control and smoking in public places indoors. The second grant was from the Cape Cod Commission to study the flushing rate for upper Bass River. The third grant was assistance to moder- ate income families for pumping their septic systems. Other ongoing programs include inspections conducted by the Health Department staff of restau- rants, retail food stores, motels, cabins, camps, pub- lic and semipublic swimming pools and whirlpools, and rental housing units, along with responding to various complaints received by the department involving trash, 157 The Board of Health continues to monitor the first approvals in the State, from the Department of Environmental Protection, to allow an alternative septic technology installation. A Bioclere Self -Contained Waste Water Treatment Plant that provides additional treatment was installed at a residential location on Mercury Drive and at the Super Stop & Shop. The new veterinarian on Ansel Hallet Road, along with 15 private residents, also have Bioclere septic systems. The alternate technology Biocleres or F.A.S.T. Sys- tems are required to protect the drinking water supply from nitrates on lots of inadequate zoning size. Among other ongoing programs was the Sur- face Water Monitoring Program of all public swimming areas, with all analyses being performed by Barnstable County Laboratory personnel. Also, the department was involved in research, planning and implementa- tions of matters concerning solid waste, water quality and quantity, herbicide and pesticide usage, Gypsy Moth spraying, sub -surface sewage disposal issues, enforcement of the town's Rental Housing Program, monitoring the Lyme Disease Tick Research Program, and encouraging homeowners to have their potable well water tested. PREVENTIVE HEALTH PROGRAMS Additional ongoing Board of Health preventive health programs included monitoring the eleven Hu- man Service agencies, with a total budget of $76,030.00, that provide various community health services to the townspeople.

HEALTH FAIRS AND CLINICS The Board of Health offers monthly health pre- ventive programs, such as Preschool Immunizations, Diabetic Screenings, Nutritional and Adult Health Counseling Clinics, New Mothers Group, Breathing Workshop, along with Blood Pressure and Hearing Tests on a bimonthly basis at Town Hall. Additional or expanded services are continually under review by the Board.

The Health Department staff, in conjunction with the Red Cross, held one Heimlich Anti -Choking Clinic for food service personnel. The. Health Department also held two series of pool safety certification courses consisting of 6-8 classes, for motel personnel, which included C.P.R., Standard First Aid, and Basic Water Safety. RABIES CONTROL PROGRAM Rabies is a disease caused by a virus which at- tacks the central nervous system and the brain. This disease can infect all warm-blooded animals includ- ing humans. Wildlife that most commonly carry the disease are raccoons, skunks, foxes, and bats. How- ever, the disease can be transmitted to pets including cats and dogs, and to humans. Because the virus concentrates in the saliva of the infected animal, the disease is usually transmitted by a bite or scratch, or by contact with the infected saliva. Massachusetts has been infected by the Mid - Atlantic strain of raccoon rabies since September, 1992. Over the course of this year, the remaining Massachusetts towns, except for Cape Cod and the Islands, have become infected with a total of 2,035 animals testing positive for the disease. Yarmouth, over the course of 1996, has tested a total of 61 ani- mals, none of which have been positive for rabies. 1996 Tallies: 61 Animals Total: Raccoons Cats Dogs Skunks 50 3 4 4 To aid in the prevention of rabies crossing the Cape Cod Canal and infecting the surrounding Cape towns, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health in conjunction with Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine has initiated a pilot project to cre- ate a "vaccine barrier" to control the spread of rabies in the raccoon population. Bait containing oral rac- coon rabies vaccine has been periodically distributed along both sides of the Cape Cod Canal since the Fall, 1993. The area of distribution is approximately 80 square miles that stretches five miles south and 3 miles north of the canal. To date, the "vaccine barrier" has proven successful, keeping the rabies epidemic at bay. However, the threat of an infected animal be- ing transported across the barrier by way of a gar- bage truck or other means of transportation still ex- ists so that precautionary measures must still be taken to protect both humans and pets. The Health Department continues to work very closely with the Department of Natural Resources and Animal Control in coordinating the capture and testing of all suspect animals as outlined in the Town Policy developed by the Health Department in response to the rabies epidemic. The Health Department currently coordinates testing of all suspect animals which is per- formed by the Massachusetts Department of Public 161 Health, in addition to relaying pertinent information and data to all affected parties of the rabies incident. The Health Department continues to be available for town personnel training, and has numerous informational pamphlets and brochures available to the public. As always, the Health Department emphasizes the importance of vaccinating all cats and dogs, as required by law, to prevent the spread of rabies. Be- cause household pets, especially cats, are the com- mon link between infected wildlife and humans, pets must be properly restrained and identified. Humans should avoid contact with all stray animals and wild- life and should notify the Health Department of De- partment of Natural Resources immediately in the event of a potential rabid exposure (human or pet) or the sighting of a strangely acting animal. TOBACCO CONTROL PROGRAM In 1993 the Board of Health formed an Ad-hoc Tobacco Control Sub -Committee comprised of several concerned citizens and local restaurant owners. This committee met to discuss the current State and local regulations on tobacco control and the dangers of sec- ond-hand smoke, primarily in restaurants and other public establishments. In 1994 Yarmouth became one of seventeen Cape towns participating in the Regional Tobacco Control Grant, which is administered by the County Health Department. This grant is funded by the State through the cigarette tax. After several pub- lic meetings, the Board approved regulations that pro- hibit smoking in indoor public places, such as retail stores, office buildings; ban cigarette vending ma- chines to prevent under age access; and require a license to sell tobacco products. The issue of smoking in restaurants will be further discussed in 1997. LONG POND STUDY PROGRAM The State has funded a grant for the Water Qual- ity Diagnostic/Feasibility Study of Long Pond. The first phase of the study (Diagnostic) encompassed 18 months. The conclusions were presented at a public meeting by the consultant firm of Metcalf & Eddy, Inc. Despite problems, the conclusions indicated that, if the recommendations presented are carried out, the water quality will be improved and preserved to make the pond a healthy and viable resource for the town. Some of the recommendations are as follows: outlet structure modi- fication, localized dredging of lily pads and aquatic plants, restructure or installation of catch basins so that road run off flows will not be directly discharged into the pond, inlet modification, septic tank phosphorus reduction, and a public education program. The depart- ment is presently in the process of implementing the Phase II of the State Grant. In 1995 nine drainage sys- tems were constructed on the south side of the pond roadways. The remaining drainage construction will be undertaken as funds become available. The Health Department staff is also participat- ing with the Storm Water Runoff Committee in plan- ning and implementing improvements to road water runoff in other areas of town. THE SEPTIC MANAGEMENT PROGRAM This program, which is administered by the Health Department, was responsible for many of the town's failing septic systems being upgraded. Con- tinuing implementation of this program includes: sep- tic system maintenance pamphlets, consultations, written and audio-visual materials, along with sew- age system location cards that are provided by the Health Department staff to assist homeowners in lo- cating their septic system for routine maintenance pumping. As required by State law, the Health De- partment reviews all Building Permits to determine the adequacy of the septic system for all projects involv- ing building alterations and/or renovations, and re- quires upgrading of all cesspools to a new septic sys- tem, which is helping to ensure protection of the town's groundwater quality. As a condition of receiving Federal and State assistance for the construction of the new septage treatment facility, the Board of Health was required to adopt a septic system inspection and maintenance regulation, to protect the public health and our vital sole -source water supply. The services of Weston & Sampson Consult- ants were obtained to work under the Director of Health to implement the Inspection and Maintenance Program for the towns of Yarmouth and Dennis. The Town of Yarmouth statistics are as follows: Total # Inspections Acceptable Pump Recommended >20% Liquid Level Over Pipes Pump Required > 33% Install Tee Raise Cover Other Cover Not Exposed 1st Notification Letters 2nd Notification Letters 3rd Notification Letters 534 360 78 19 31 3 21 5 29 2,575 635 496 162 Total # Letters Sent Extensions Granted Septic Pumping Grants Issued 3,706 479 2 In order to ensure that a septic system contin- ues proper operation, it is necessary from time to time to remove the accumulated solids and sludge from the bottom of the septic tank or cesspool. It is particu- larly important to keep the solids from being carried over into and clogging the leaching system. The rate of accumulation of solids is primarily related to the intensity of use (i.e., how many people are using the septic system; is the septic system used all year or only seasonally; is a garbage grinder used - not rec- ommended), so the time interval between pumpings will vary for each home. Therefore, the regulation will require that all systems be pumped every four` years or have a NO FEE inspection by town agents to de- termine if a septic pumpout is needed. THE SEPTIC PUMPING GRANT PROGRAM The Yarmouth Board of Health was required to adopt regulations requiring the pumping of septic tanks once every four years with certain waiver provisions. This requirement was a result of an E.P.A./Massa- chusetts Department of Environmental Protection grant of monies to the town for construction of the Septage Treatment Plant. The grant encourages as- sistance to low and moderate income residents in complying with the regulation. The statistics for grant awards are as follows: Low Income Moderate Income Denied 1 PRIVATE TREATMENT PLANTS The Board of Health and the Health Department, in conjunction with the Board's consultant, Wright - Pierce Engineers, continued to monitor and review engineered plans, and monthly operational and main- tenance reports, along with the Department of Envi- ronmental Protection (D.E.P.), for private sewage treat- ment facilities. Several meetings with D.E.P. were held for review of the treatment plant's groundwater dis- charge permits along with hydrological and environ- mental reports. There are presently operating within the town the following private treatment plants: 1. Buck Island Condominium: 94 Living Units: 50,000 GPD on 32 acres, 1978 2. Cove Motel: Route 28 - 229 Time Sharing Units, 194 Seat Res- taurant, and Health Facility: 39,900 GPD on 23.6 acres, 1986 3.

The li- censed hazardous waste firm of CARE Environmen- tal collected 86 drums containing 4,675 gallons of paints, thinners, pesticides, and miscellaneous chemi- cals that were removed off -Cape to a licensed haz- ardous waste facility. The 1997 Collection is planned for June 28th. Mr. Meyer is also responsible for monitoring those sites listed as Confirmed Hazardous Waste Sites by the Department of Environmental Protection (D.E.P.). The year 1996 saw twenty-one (21) sites in the Town of Yarmouth listed as Confirmed Hazardous Waste Sites by the D.E.P. Three (3) sites were listed as Locations to be Investigated, two (2) other sites were listed as Remedial Sites, and zero (0) site were wavered. Mr. Meyer's duties also include monitoring the clean-up actions of these sites. In five cases these clean-up actions included the use of soil vapor ex- traction systems, which involved the use of air strip- ping towers. Other clean-up methods involved the removal of contaminated soils and the installation of ground water monitoring wells. The Health Department is also participating with the County Health Department in offering radon sam- pling kits at Town Hall at a discount rate. The results from all ten homes sampled all showed the radon lev- els to be below the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standard of 4 picocuries per liter of air. OTHER ACTIVITIES The Health Department continues to add and maintain many of its administrative functions for moni- toring the public health and environment on the Health Department computer, with the following programs: un- derground gasoline storage tanks, hazardous waste, right to know, septage pumping data for all residential and commercial buildings, nitrate loading restrictions, complaints, housing rentals, dog bite reports,, food service, swimming pools, well water analysis, along with pond, river, and coastal water analysis. As in prior years, 1996 saw the Health Agents continue to work toward a more harmonious environ- ment and public health standards through their atten- dance of, and their involvement in, meetings, seminars, conferences, sponsored by the State De- partment of Public Health, the Massachusetts Envi- ronmental Health Association, the Massachusetts Health Officers Association, Barnstable County Health Department Seminars and by serving on various state, town and county committees. Also, the Director of Health served as a mem- ber of Visiting Nurse Association Advisory Board.

Throughout the year the men and women of the Yarmouth Police Department worked diligently to deliver a very effective Community Orientated Polic- ing Program for the Town. As Chief of Police, I was impressed with both the enthusiasm and the constant professional attitude that our staff displayed in meeting the many challenges that confronted our Department throughout 1996. We did respond to 29,059 calls for Police service and certainly have noted that the calls for our services are increasing at an alarming rate. To meet the goals of our Department our Offic- ers participated in a proactive Highway Safety Pro- gram throughout the entire Town. The focus of this Program was to reduce accidents and to provide a visible deterrent to traffic violations, specifically speed- ing, use of child restraints, and operating under the influence of alcohol. Our statistics have proven the success of this Program, by noting a decrease in traf- fic deaths from five in 1995, to none in 1996. Overall this decline is the result of our staff work- ing effectively to monitor locations within the Town where serious accidents have resulted in the past. We have also expanded our Patrols through grant awards from both the Governor's Highway Safety Bureau and the Keeping Cape Cod Alive Program. We appreciate the support of these agencies in as- sisting us in promoting Highway Safety. Our Citizen Police Academy graduated its third class during 1996 and now has an alumni of over sev- enty graduates. Each session of this Academy in- volves approximately thirty hours of classroom and field "ride -along" experience for the participants. I am extremely pleased that this Program has not only opened the door of our Department to the Commu- nity but has also built a better understanding amongst our Residents of the Police role in Society. Since the start of the Citizen's Academy our Of- ficers have donated their off-duty time to this effort. After the Academy experience we allow the citizen to continue to work with us in our Citizen Volunteer Pro - 167 gram. This Program is designed to have the Citizen volunteer at the Station in a variety of capacities. These duties include giving directions, light clerical work , and answering questions for the Public. Our Adopt -a School Program continues to be very effective and I am pleased with the commitment of our Officers that work with our young people in Yarmouth. Their work includes the D -Y High School Resource Officer, the Middle School Drug Abuse Re- sistance Education Program and the highly success- ful "Cop -Card" Program. In working with our young- sters it is apparent that we should be providing addi- tional resources to them such as an area for skate- boarding or in-line skating within the Town of Yarmouth. Our Department continued throughout 1996 to improve our Department without impacting our own budget. In doing so, we were successful in obtaining funding assistance from several sources to not only expand but also improve the quality of our services. The U. S. Department of Justice awarded us a Tech- nology Grant of $184,300 to upgrade our report writ- ing, records systems and dispatching capabilities. We also received a Universal Hiring Grant which would pay the salaries of five officers for three years. This particular grant, if the voters approve, will allow the Department to expand the staff for the first time since 1979. Since 1979 the demands on our Agency has increased in a variety of ways. The Executive Office of Public Safety once again funded our Community Policing Program which provided the Citizen's Academy, Mountain Bike Patrols, and our Adopt -a -School Program. The same agency also funded the DARE Officers participation in the School District. Our Drug Enforcement participation in a Regional Task Force was also in part funded with a State grant. Late in 1996, we were very pleased that the Board of Selectmen appointed a Building Committee for our Police Station needs. This capable Commit- tee will study various options of improving our facility which is in need of major repair or replacement. We invite the Public to come in and see the facility at any- time. Tours can be arranged by calling my Office or the Officer in charge of the shift. In closing, as I complete my second Annual Re- port, I would like to express my appreciation to our Citizens who place tremendous confidence in their Police Department. I would also like to thank the busi- ness community, the Chamber of Commerce, The Yarmouth Restaurant Association and our other Town agencies that assist us throughout the year. And fi- nally, I would like to express thanks to our Staff who everyday serve the residents in a caring manner. Respectfully submitted, Chief Peter L.

We stopped burying waste on January 1, 1996 at the Landfill so that now it is strictly 'a transfer station and recycling center. With their ingenuity and hard work, the Sanitation and Engineering staffs; pri- marily Dave Santos, Dean Conklin and John Brady, under the guidance of John Kuchinski, constructed new facilities in the drop off areas. Funding for these new improvements was from revenue generated from out of Town construction and demolition debris bur- ied in the Landfill to reach the top of Landfill grades required by the MA Department of Environmental Pro- tection (D.E.P.). We expect to open the residential household refuse drop off area shortly into the new year (1997). The new construction and demolition de- bris drop off area was opened with a formal ribbon cutting ceremony by the Board of Selectmen. All con- struction and demolition debris is now placed in a contractor's truck and hauled off site for disposal. Robert Childs, Inc. is under contract to provide this disposal service. Planning for the re -use of the closed Landfill has proven to be a regulatory challenge, since a golf course on a recently closed Landfill has never been undertaken in Massachusetts. This coupled with the fact that we propose to use the final effluent from the Yarmouth -Dennis Septage Treatment Facility to irri- gate the golf holes located on the Landfill (another first in this State), complicates the regulatory process. The fact that 15 other states already allow this type of irrigation bodes well for our garnering approval from MA-D.E.P. In March we opened bids for the first phase of closure of the Landfill which includes 11 of the total 57 acres of the footprint of the Landfill. Robert B. Our Company, Inc. was the lowest of ten bids the DPW received, with a bid of $1,896,461. This contract in- cluded the placement of preload sand on the proposed greens and tees of the proposed golf holes located on the Landfill. This preload material will be spread and utilized in the second phase of closure sched- uled to be bid in the spring of 1997 before April An- nual Town Meeting where funding will be requested 173 for the second phase of closure and the golf course addition. The expansion of the Bayberry Hills Golf Course from 18 to 27 holes led to the need to expand parking facilities, as well as building renovations. These build- ing requirements coupled with the need for a new building for the Sanitation Division and a restroom/ concession stand at the proposed Old Town House Road Park led to the need to solicit proposals from architects for the building improvements. We also in- cluded the new Water Division building in the proposed architectural work for a total of five new buildings and three building renovations. Following interviews, a Selection Committee chose the following architects: Buildings Golf Buildings Sanitation Building Concession Stand/ Restrooms Architects Brown & Lindquist, Yarmouthport SEA Consultants, Cambridge Fenuccio & Peel, Yarmouthport Also on the solid waste front we have been ne- gotiating with Bay Colony Railroad to reduce its fee for hauling household and commercial refuse to the Resource Recovery Facility in Rochester, MA. We even solicited bids to purchase railroad cars in an at- tempt to lower our long term costs. We are finding that an escalating clause in the contract with Bay Colony Railroad, based on a percentage of the Bos- ton CPI, is making the railroad more expensive than trucking. Our negotiations have been successful since Bay Colony Railroad reduced its fee by $ .90 per ton temporarily. Further negotiations will be required to make this arrangement more permanent. We are also working with Bay Colony Railroad and the Executive Office of Transportation and Con- struction (State agency responsible for the railroad Right of Way) to abandon the railroad tracks east of the Transfer Station and former dump in hopes of uti- lizing the Right of Way, currently occupied by the rail- road, to extend the Rail Trail through Yarmouth to Barnstable. In order to do so, we have proposed an area adjacent to the Transfer Station as an off load- ing facility at the end of the rail to accommodate any Cape rail customers. The real plus to the rail aban- donment will be the use of the existing railroad bridge over Bass River. Bay Colony Railroad currently deliv- ers no more than 30 railroad cars per year beyond the Transfer Station. Additionally the tracks beyond the Transfer Station are in need of substantial invest- ment to make the tracks and road crossing safe and usable. The extension of the Rail Trail is envisioned to terminate at the new Intermodal Center to be built in Hyannis along the railroad spur that services the Cape Cod Dinner Train which runs along Willow Street at Exit 7 off the Mid -Cape Highway. On the roadway projects, I am pleased to report that Barbara A. Benoit, Administrative Assistant, has been working diligently on obtaining signatures on Private Road Petitions. The Town bylaws require a petition be signed by 60% of the residents abutting a private roadway before the DPW can provide any maintenance on such a roadway. Of the 90 miles of private roads in the Town of Yarmouth, Barbara has signed petitions covering over 59 miles of those pri- vate roads on file in the DPW office. This petition, once on file, not only allows us to maintain the paved sur- faces, but also to rectify any drainage problems. We continued design of improvements planned for Buck Island Road which includes a six foot wide sidewalk along its entire length. The project was fi- nally approved by the Massachusetts Highway De- partment with a project expediter assigned to the project which also includes Town Brook Road. Inter- sections will be improved at Town Brook Road and Higgins, Crowell Road where they intersect Buck Is- land Road. This project is slated for construction in the next two years with funding provided by the Mas- sachusetts Highway Department. Also under design are the intersection improve- ments at Forest Road and Old Town House Road. The Board of Selectmen chose an offset intersection as the most cost effective solution to improve the safety at this intersection. The project is currently un- der design by an engineering consultant with work to be undertaken next year. New final pavement will be placed along Old Town House Road where new drain- age facilities were installed along with the modifica- tion to this busy intersection. We are also starting the public participation phase of several roadway improvement projects. We have hired Earth Tech (formerly Whitman & Howard, Inc.) to investigate Station Avenue and McDonough and Scully, Inc. to investigate Willow Street (begin- ning at Exit 7 to the Barnstable town line), Higgins 174 Crowell Road, and Camp Street. The DPW goal for all these roadways is to improve the paved surfaces and make the roadways safer for pedestrians, bicy- clists and motorists alike. These companies will be working with the schools, businesses and residences on these roadways to determine what improvements the neighborhoods feel need to be designed, before the design process begins. Again we anticipate fund- ing from the Massachusetts Highway Department to pay for all the construction of improvements. This last year, following a number of public hear- ings with the neighborhood, the DPW undertook a substantial water main replacement and storm drain- age improvement project on Pleasant Street in the Bass River area. The bids were opened in early Au- gust and the Notice to Proceed was given to the con tractor in mid-August. While the neighborhood resi- dents were very patient, the project was not completed until late December. We appreciate your tolerance and patience. The final paving will take place late spring or early summer of next construction season. The Board of Selectmen approved the reloca- tion of the Water Division to the Spray Irrigation Site off Buck Island Road following a year or more of dis- cussions on possible sites. The Water Division head- quarters is currently situated on a wellfield with build- ings suffering from termite infestation which cannot be treated because of their location. Earth Tech has been selected as the architect for a new Water Divi- sion building which, pending approval of funding at the next April Annual Town Meeting, could be under construction in the spring or summer next year. Since we are anticipating the State's approval to utilize the effluent from the Septage Treatment Facility on the expanded golf course, there will be more than enough room at the Spray Irrigation site to accommodate the Water Division's needs. The latter part of the year saw incredible amounts of rainfall and a record high water table which caused water to appear in many basements of Yarmouth resi- dents. The Water Division noted in their records the groundwater table was nearly three feet higher than last year at the same time and 2.3 feet above the av- erage water table. The result was flooding of road- ways in Captains Village and the Ocean Avenue area where the water table was above the road levels in several locations. With the aid of the Metropolitan Dis-, trict Commission in Boston, pumps and tanker trucks were made available to attempt to relieve the flood- ing situations. Thanks to the DPW employees in High- way and Parks and Cemeteries for the work through- out the night to relieve the roadway flooding. The En- gineering Division is reviewing options to relieve the problem in these two areas but none are inexpensive or without risk of transferring the problem somewhere else. At the Septage Treatment Plant flows for the fis- cal year 96 declined slightly to 11,295,799 gallons when compared to the 11,648,862 gallons received and treated in FY95, a.3% decrease. We received a preliminary proposal from Waste Stream Environmen- tal, Inc. to renovate the former compost building and convert the sludges produced at the Yarmouth -Den- nis Septage Treatment Plant and other, plants into a usable product called N-Viro Soil. This proposal was, made possible after Annual Town Meeting -April 96 authorized agreements up to ten years in length at the Septage Treatment Plant. Consequently the DPW Administration is pre- paring a Request for Proposals to determine if any other firms may also be interested in processing sludge into a usable product at the Septage Treat- ment Plant. The product presumably can be sold to generate additional revenue for the Septage Treat- ment Plant to enhance the plant's financial outlook. Fortunately shutting down the compost operations and hauling sludge off Cape for disposal has saved over $100,000 annually in electrical operating costs which has also enhanced the financial outlook at the facility. This savings was critical since we reduced our tip fee for incoming septage to $ .08 per gallon in order to remain competitive with other septage treatment fa- cilities. With the possibility of additional revenue from N-Viro Soil production at the plant, the future financial, stability of the plant looks optimistic. We thank all the DPW employees who worked long and hard during the winter snow season last year especially during the blizzard of '96. We look forward to a productive year ahead with the potential for ma- jor roadway improvement projects and the Landfill clo- sure and re -use. ENGINEERING DIVISION Richard P. deMello, Town Engineer 1996 proved to be yet another progressive year for the Engineering Division. We purchased Kruse Control, a computer filing system for''plans, and, we now have the ability to locate and edit plans more efficiently than ever before. Most of the several thou- sand plans in our possession are now logged and easily accessible. A volunteer, Mr. Harris Weston, donated several hundred hours of his time sorting and 175 inputting the data. Without his invaluable assistance, this project would not have been completed in as timely a fashion. Thank -you Wes. The Enhanced 911 Project was utilized through its first full year and proved to be very effective. The database is continually updated through the coopera- tion of the Fire and Police Departments, NYNEX, and our. Town Surveyor, Bob Garcia. We give special thanks to Bob for his dedication to this important, on- going project. Drainage improvements through the Roadway Management Program (RMP) in 1996 once again surpassed many previous years. This program has proved to be a tremendous success because poor drainage leads to accelerated pavement deterioration, increased maintenance costs, and poor driving con- ditions. This significant improvement would not be possible without the assistance from Ahe Highway Di- vision, engineering, consultants, inspectors and con- tractors, and as a result from the funding approved at the April 1996 Annual Town Meeting. Drainage sys- tems were installed on the following roads: Baxter Avenue (3 locations), Bayview Beach parking area, Blue Rock Road, Breezy Point Road, Centerboard Lane (2), Cottage Drive, Cranberry Lane (Ypt), Curve Hill Road, Forest Road (south of Route 28), Harbor Road, Highbank Road (at No. Main St.), Holly Lane, Hudson Road, No. Cove Landing, No. Dennis Road (2), Old Main St. (west end), Old Town House Road (east end), Oyster Cove Road, Pleasant Street (32), Rowley Lane, Stratford Lane (at Oxford Rd.), Wendward Way (at Second Rd.), and Winter Street. Not yet completely installed but in progress are Center Street (12 locations) and Pine Grove Road (16). The following drainage systems have been de- signed and are scheduled to be installed in the Spring: Aft Road, Boxberry Lane, Bradford Road, Checker - berry Lane, Gardiner Lane, Green Way (3 locations), and Jacqueline Circle. As part of many of the above drainage improvements, we were able to work ami- cably with many cooperative residents to obtain drain- age easements. We are extremely grateful to these residents for their timely assistance on resolving many drainage problems. As noted above by DPW Director Allaire, the record rainfalls of this past Fall reeked havoc with resi- dents Townwide, especially the residents of the Cap- tains Village and the Ocean Avenue areas. Employ- ees of the Engineering Division responded profession- ally and patiently to the hundreds of phone calls and visits from many residents requesting our help. Sev- eral employees received Certificates of Appreciation from the Selectmen for their extra effort during this difficult time. We would like to thank Richard Anctil, Civil Engineer, for his dedication and long hours throughout this ordeal. He has made every possible attempt to obtain assistance from MEMA and FEMA to help those residents who incurred personal prop- erty damage during the flooding. The division has completed level runs and test pits at several locations to determine groundwater surface elevations in a quest to find a workable solution to the groundwater problems in these areas. As important as the numerous drainage improve- ments, there were also many pavement improvements made throughout Town under the RMP. Both Town and Private Roads were included in crackfilling, full depth patching, chip sealing and pavement overlays. All or portions of the following roads were included in this work: Setucket Rd., Old Town House Rd. (east end), Pleasant St., East Main St., Center St. (north end), Abell's Rd., Baxter Ave., Glenwood St., Harbor Rd., Park Ave., Somerset St., Winter St., Long Pond Dr. (west end), West Yarmouth Rd. (south end), Bray Farm Rd. North, Davis Rd., Country Club Dr., Reflec- tion Way, Mid Iron Dr., Ellis Circle, Frances Helen Rd., Highbank Rd., Lakeland Ave., Ice House Rd., Town Hall Ave., Lakewood Rd., Maths Dr., Oyster Cove Rd., Viking Rock Dr., Zephyr Dr., Railway Bluffs, Saltmarsh Lane, Samoset Rd., Sharon- Rd., Monterey Lane, Newfield Lane, Geneva Rd., Great Pond Dr., Cypress Point Way, Brush Hill Rd., Burning Tree Lane, Capt. Daniel Rd., Capt. Dore Rd., Cobb Ave. and Appleby Rd. Setucket Rd., Old Town House Rd. and Pleasant St. are planned to receive a final course of pavement in the Spring. We also continue to update the roadway condi- tion computer data base and to evaluate future phases of the AMP. As noted above in the DPW report, the Landfill closure project and improvements to the composting, demolition debris, recycling, and residential drop-off areas has occupied much of our time. We would like to extend special recognition to John Kuchinski, Civil Engineer, for his dedication to these important, ongo- ing projects. As a result of a poll conducted through the En- gineering Division to the residents on Main Street in South Yarmouth, approval was granted by the Board 176 of Selectmen to officially change the name of Main Street to Old Main Street. Field inspections, plan reviews, surveys, designs and/or plan preparations were completed for other Departments, Boards and Commissions. Specific projects included: miscellaneous road sideline defini- tions for residents, the Sign Inspector and the High- way Division in regard to encroachments, sign loca- tions, brush clearing and fence locations; plan prepa- ration, bidding and construction inspection for the Landfill capping, and composting, demolition debris, recycling and residential dropoff areas; plan prepara- tion for the Police Dept. for two proposed skateboard/ rollerblade areas (D -Y High School and Sandy Pond area); field work and plan preparation for proposed handicap access improvements at Sea Gull and Bass River Beaches; field work and plan preparation for reconstruction design of the Old Town House Road/ Forest Road intersection; bidding assistance to the Recreation Department for the Flax Pond deck and Meadowbrook Road Boardwalk projects; presentation plan preparation for the Station Avenue Improvement Project; topographic plan preparation for relocation of the Water Division; field, plan and paper work for numerous Conservation Commission filings; bidding assistance to the Golf Department for the Aboveground Fuel Storage Tanks at Bayberry Hills Golf Course; preparation of specifications for and bid- ding of Bikepath/Golf Cart Paths at Bayberry Hills Golf Course; field locations for booths at the Yarmouth Seaside festival; drainage and pavement improvement designs at Ancient Cemetery; septic system inspec- tion and certification at Sea Gull Beach; bid evalua- tions and extensions for roadway construction and materials items; Street Sweeping bidding; Pleasant Street (and abutting roads) water main and drainage improvement plans, specifications and bidding in co- operation with Water Division; Townwide crackfilling bidding; design/oversight/permitting of Bass Hole im- provements; confined space entry procedure prepa- ration and equipment bidding/purchase; Bay View Beach parking area improvements design and per- mitting; Old Main Street pipe cleaning and television inspection; and, fatality accident plan preparation for Police Department. Throughout the year, daily assistance was also provided to many other Town departments, Boards, Committees as well as the many citizens who visited or telephoned our office with information requests and questions. HIGHWAY DIVISION William E. Nixon, Highway Superintendent and Tree Warden Management of roadway maintenance is the responsibility of the Highway Division. There are many types of requests and concerns received from the citi- zens of Yarmouth with regards to roadway mainte- nance. Approximately 2,800 requests were received by the department this past year. Requests for ser- vice and the highway departments general mainte- nance work are: patching roadways (hot and cold), installing and repairing bituminous aprons and berms, installing -repairing -cleaning of catch basins, roadside clean-up/litter, roadside mowing of grass, resolving encroachments and roadway obstructions (sight dis- tance), brush cutting of trees, limbs and shrubs, mak- ing -installing -repairing metal and concrete traffic signs, and special projects for other town departments.

Stop Bars (225), Crosswalks (9), Railroad Cross- ings (8), School Crossings (6), 245,631 linear feet of center lines, 309,942 linear feet of fog lines, and Stop Ahead traffic markings were painted via a private con- tractor. Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance Highway mechanics performed general repairs and maintenance (some major repairs) on highway vehicles and equipment. The mechanics also did an- nual safety inspections on town vehicles. Resurfacing/Overlays Miscellaneous Pavement Patching was com- pleted on several roads; Centerboard Lane, North Dennis Road, Standish Way, Cottage Drive, Station Ave., Bayview Street and Reflection Way, totaling (266) Tons Bituminous Concrete. Chapter 90 State Aid Projects Four new pieces of Road Building Equipment were purchased, (Loader/Backhoe, 20 -Ton Trailer, Loader/Grader Maintainer, Spreader -Dump Truck) through State Aid. Seven roadway projects for 1996- 97 have been earmarked for a total of $837,100 and additional Road Building Equipment is anticipated to be purchased. All State Aid Funding is 100% reimbursable. Snow and Ice Removal The winter of 1995 was very active with inclem- ent weather as we recorded (27) call outs for sanding and (15) call out for plowing. Tree Department Under the direction of William E. Nixon, Tree Warden, the maintenance and removal of trees are assigned to highway personnel and outside services with specialized equipment. Maintenance of two Mass. Relief Tree Grants continues annually and will continue until fiscal year 1997. Highway personnel and contract services trimmed and pruned trees throughout the town upon observation and citizens request. Six trees were re- moved by contract services; 2 -Maples, 1 -Locust, 2 - Pines, 1 -Oak. Fortunately, only minimal cleanup was required after Hurricane Edouard. Shade tree spraying for insect control was not required in 1996. Contract and Town Sweeping All (224) miles of town and private road- ways were swept during April and May by private contractor. All (21) miles of sidewalks were swept by Town personnel. All (33) town parking lots are swept annually. A total of (90) additional roadways were swept prior to and after chip sealing. Request From Other Departments Assistance to other town departments included: Park, Cemetery, Landfill, Engineering, D.N.R., Water, Fire, Police, Harbor Master, Golf Courses (2), Recre- ation Dept., Schools (5), Housing Authority, and Se- nior Citizen Center. We want to thank other town departments and boards for their assistance and support throughout the year. Thanks to the highway department personnel for their cooperative effort this past year. { PARK AND CEMETERY DIVISION Philip L. Whitten, Director The Park and Cemetery Division continued to take major steps forward in facility improvements and providing service to the public. There are eleven full time staff that work as a team to meet the needs of the residents and tourists at all our various recreational and cemetery locations. The Park Division has the responsibility to man- age and maintain the multitude of beach, park, ma- rina and other facilities which the public uses. The seven Parks employees are joined by a seasonal staff of 28-30 to complete this effort. The primary source of income is from beach rev- enues which include the resident beach stickers, the sale of beach tickets and stickers and various vendor fees. The resident beach stickers remained at $15.00 178 for the first auto, $8.00 for the second at the same household, and $15.00 for any subsequent sticker. The daily beach fees increased one dollar at Sea Gull and Bass River Beaches to $8.00 which generates monies which are used at the beaches for repairs and improvements. The $7.00 fee remained the same at Parkers River and Sea View Beaches. The $30.00 weekly pass and the seasonal pass for $75.00 re- mained the same. The boat ramp parking fees at Bass River Beach remained constant at $6.00 per day to launch and park and $30.00 for a seasonal pass. The weekday Hospitality Beach Pass Program through hotels and motels continued to work well during the summer of 1996 improving our weekday attendance. The 1996 season and the year was highlighted by the following accomplishments: • Beverage service was provided during the sum- mer at Packets Landing, Flax Pond Recreation Area, and the Bass Hole Picnic Area by awarding a vend- ing service in sheltered structures. • The erosion control and drainage project at the Dennis Pond parking area worked very well during the rains and controlled the runoff into the pond elimi- nating the beach erosion. • The Bass Hole parking lot and access road to the boardwalk were improved dramatically to provide better, safer, public access and enhance environmen- tal protection. • The large new permitted septic system at Sea Gull Beach worked very well eliminating the need for service pumping and problems within the system. We were able to permit and construct the system behind the dune and not in the parking lot. • The dredging of the Parkers River Channel with placement of dredged material at Sea View and Parkers River Beaches improved the size of these beaches. • The Flax Pond Recreation Area was the re- cipient of improvements to the beach area with a new walkway, sitting area and handicapped access to both the beach and pond. • The soccer field at Sandy Pond responded well to the irrigation and lawn care program even with a full schedule of fall soccer played on it. Park Division goals for 1997 are not limited to: • The repaving and relining of the Bayview Beach parking lot with the inclusion of improved drainage. • Replacement of the post fences at Bayview, Colonial and Sea View Beaches. • Construction of a large dune at Sea Gull Beach to protect the beach, parking lot, and facilities from being washed away or damaged during severe ocean storms or hurricanes. '- • The design, permitting and installation of a HUD funded handicapped accessible walkway to Sea Gull Beach. This is a cooperative project with Recreation, Natural Resources and Conservation. • The funding, design, permitting and construc- tion of a new bathhouse/concession facility at Sea Gull Beach to serve all beach users including handicapped access. • The installation of drainage and new paving at Sea Gull Beach to eliminate the flooding and water related pavement damage. This will improve parking and beach access. • The cutting of the bicycle trail segment from Higgins Crowell Road to Willow Street to continue the bike and pedestrian pathway through the Town of Yarmouth. • • The design, bidding and contracting for replace- ment of the Englewood jetty hand railing system. The year 1996 would not be complete without a note about the piping plover, an endangered wildlife bird, which is fond of nesting on some of our beaches. This is a problem which will have to be managed in a cooperative way between the Town and the advocates of their protection to find a balance between protec- tion and the right of the public use on recreational beaches which are community assets and revenue generators. The four year round Cemetery Division employ- ees manage, maintain and operate the seven cem- eteries with a land area of over 44 acres. The care of this cemetery land is difficult because of the slow speed at which grounds care can be done with all the plantings and monumentation. The Chandler Gray Cemetery is coming along well as we develop more and more of the available land. This is the only cem- etery with lots available for sale. 179 There were 101 burials in the Town -owned cem- eteries during 1996. Thirty-one cemetery lots were sold, 2 one -grave lots; 23 two -grave lots; 1 three -grave lot; 2 cremation lots; and 3 graves were sold to spouses of Veterans. Six graves were given to Veterans. The cemetery lots remained at the same price as last year: Single Grave Double Grave Three Grave Four Graves Cremation Lot for two burials Spouse of Veteran Recording Fee $300.00 $600.00 $900.00 $1,200.00 $125.00 $25.00 $10.00 The total revenue from the sale of cemetery lots was $15,855.00. This amount was distributed as fol- lows: $3,150.00 for the lots, $12,425.00 for perpetual care and $280.00 for recording of deeds to these lots. The amount of $22,208.86 was received from the Walter Gifford Trust to subsidize cemetery operations in Pine Grove Cemetery. On June 1, 1996, we initiated an $80.00 call • - back fee for weekend or holiday services or burials. For that seven month period we collected $1,280.00 for this off hour service. The Cemetery Division office continues to be a center for genealogy. It has become very popular to trace the roots and ancestors of families and much time is spent in the office researching families and the location of their graves in Yarmouth. As there were many duplicate names among the early settlers, many generations have to be researched in order to get the correct individual. Some of these individuals were married two or three times and then the tracing gets very complicated. We also get many requests to see if there is room left in some of the old graves for de- scendants. During 1996 we accomplished the following: • The partial installation of a new water distribu- tion system in the Ancient Cemetery to better service all sections of the cemetery. • The paving of certain roads within the Ancient Cemetery to allow better public access, control traffic flow and stop some erosion. • A major pruning and thinning in the rear sec- tion of the Ancient Cemetery to improve the setting around the gravesites and make maintenance easier. • We accepted a preliminary master plan design for the future development and expansion of the Chan- dler Gray Cemetery. • The first stage thinning of the woodlands at Chandler Gray has begun to allow for cemetery ex- pansion and the addition of service roads. • Computerization of all cemetery lot maps which improve records, service, public information and al- low us to speed up our identification and marking of lots in the field. The Park and Cemetery Division is one of the active staffs within the DPW and Town Department structure. The impact and influence of this division can be seen from the care of Anniversary Park to the flowers planted at Baker Square, from the Memorial at Bass River Beach to the sitting area at the end of the boardwalk at Bass Hole, from the beach cleaning at Dennis Pond to the sale of a cemetery lot at Chan- dler Gray Cemetery. We all attempt to serve the resi- dents and tourist to the best level possible and with your continued support we will continue to do so. WASTE MANAGEMENT DIVISION SOLID WASTE AND RECYCLING Peter G. Homer, Superintendent There have been many changes and improve- ments at the Landfill this year. We stopped burying all wastes on January 1, 1996. Now all materials brought into the Landfill are either recycled, processed to be shipped out of town, or in the case of brush, chipped. In order to process the construction and demo- lition debris a new shipping pad was constructed. A new drop off area for grass clippings and leaves was constructed and opened this spring. During the summer we began constructing a new drop off area for household rubbish and recyclables. This new area will be opened some time this winter, when construction has been completed. Phase One of the Landfill closure plan was com- pleted, before the end of the year. We are now recycling bottles, cans, aluminum, and plastics in a commingled recycling container. These materials are shipped off Cape for recycling. 180 The Landfill also recycles newsprint, corrugated, card- board, magazines, used motor oil and filters, metals, and car batteries. The Landfill has processed and composted 4,000 cubic yards of leaves and grass clippings. The resulting compost will be used in the closure of the Landfill. A total of 13,010.56 tons of construction and demolition debris, metal, brush, and recyclables were processed by the Sanitation Department. A total of 6,886.57 tons of household rubbish were hauled to the Transfer Station, for shipment to SEMASS. The Landfill is open 362 days a year, closing for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years day. STRUCTURES DIVISION Tom Butkowsky Structures, a division of DPW, primarily deals with Building maintenance and repairs along with more specialized improvements to various facilities. Struc- tures, at this time, consists of one individual, carrying out routine maintenance needs and repairs of sev- eral buildings. These tasks include, interior and exte- rior painting, roof shingle replacement, window & door repairs, repairs to desks, chairs, file cabinets, chang- ing of burned out lights, snow removal of sidewalks at Town Hall, trimming of shrubs at Town Hall & Police Station, maintaining of cooling and heating systems, changing of air filters. The owner annual testing of reduced pressure backflow devices, along with nu- merous other duties associated with facilities mainte- nance are also accomplished by this division. There were several repairs and improvements to various facilities accomplished in-house by this department this year. They included the following at these locations: Town Hall 1. An office for the staff and a work station was built for the equipment of Channel 19 near the Hear- ing Room. 2. A storage/break room was emptied of stor- age and repaired to be better used as a much needed Conference Room (B) 3. The Clerk/Treasurer Office was re -arranged to better serve the needs of the Departments. 4. The need for additional office space was ac- complished by building a large secured storage area in the basement of the Senior Center and transferred all back files to this area. This out of the way storage area at Town Hall was then re -modeled into the em- ployee breakroom/kitchen. This will allow the old kitchen area to become useful multiple office space. Police Station: 1. In the Detective Office area an interview/stor- ,age room was re -constructed into a small interview room and a small office for the School Officer. 2. An enclosed area in the evidence room was „constructed to securely house various guns. 3. A storage closet was built under the stairway area. 4. The rolled roofing on the dormer section was removed and re -roofed along with a large - cricket built to divert water from the breezeway roof. 5. Storage shelving built for record archives. Flax Pond Recreational Area: 1. A section of rotten sills were removed and re- built on the (Motel) building. Also at the same build- _ ing the entire 3,000 sq. ft. roof was re -shingled and some trim and soffit repairs were made. 2. Other items for the Recreation Department _-included repairs and moving boat racks for the Sail- ing Program and building a second lock-up for sailing equipment. Fire Department - Station #1: 1. Pull down attic stairway installed. 2. Carpet installed in the dispatch and adjoining office. 3. For security, expanded metal was installed over the window in the back ambulance bay. 4. A small closet was expanded and finished off with ventilation to house the department compute r system and main server. 181 Miscellaneous Repairs: 1. Natural Resource Department 2. Bayberry Hills Golf Course 3. West/South Yarmouth Libraries Other improvements made by outside contractors; these were: 1. Rubber membrane roof installed on the flat roof of the garage at the Police Station. 2. A 3 inch reduced pressure backflow device was installed in the attic of Town Hall to protect the anti -freeze section of the Fire Sprinkler System. 3. Some outside lighting as well as installing a new outlet in the front lawn section of the West Yarmouth Library. Many of the repairs and improvements this year were funded through the capital budget article, "Fa- cilities Repairs and Improvements", which was new this year. This budget article allows for some of the many repairs and improvements needed each year on the structures the Town has. This coming year is shaping up to be just as busy, if not busier than last year. As you can see in this report, this Department tries to do as many in- house repairs as possible. This allows us to get more repairs/improvements completed with limited funding. Many of the larger projects couldn't be done without the help and cooperation of the various departments.

The peak day was June 15, 1996, when 9,130,000 gallons were pumped. The peak week oc- curred between the 11th and 17th of June when 48,120,000 gallons were pumped, which is 10,743,000 less than 1995. The peak month was July when 187,200,000 gallons were pumped, which is 42,961,000 gallons less than 1996. During 1996, our pumps recorded 3,417 run days and logged 52,198 run hours. 20,749 pounds of Sodium Hexametaphos- phate was added to the water as a sequestering agent to prevent iron and manganese staining. 693,784.30 pounds of Potassium Hydroxide was added to the water to raise the pH to an average of 7.10, thus mak- ing the water less corrosive, as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act. Rainfall for the year, as recorded at the main pumping station, located at 102 Union 182 Street, was 56.41", which was 21.70" more than 1995 and 11.00" above the average rainfall of 45.41". The average pH of the rainfall, which is the sole source of Yarmouth's water, was 4.52. Since 1976 the department has been monitor- ing ground water elevations at seven locations throughout the Town. On October 29, 1996, water lev- els at these seven sites showed a record high water table. This is most notable because typically the low- est water table occurs in the fall and the highest wa- ter table during the spring. During 1996 we repaired 94 water main and water service leaks. This represents two consecutive years where water leaks showed a dramatic decrease in numbers from previous years. Department personnel participated in extensive training during 1996, which consisted of Confined Space Safety, Hydrant Maintenance, Road Safety, Excavation Safety, External Corrosion Control for water mains and Water Utility Operational Safety. This training is especially developed for water suppliers by the New England Water Works Association. The Department continues with its many pro- grams, some of which are the inspection and testing of cross connection control devices, water meter re- placement, annual inspection and maintenance of all hydrants, regular equipment maintenance and pump- ing station performance testing to ensure efficiency. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the professionalism, dedication and hard work by the employees of the Yarmouth Water Department. I would also like to thank all the Departments and Agencies of the town and the citizens of Yarmouth for their support and assistance during 1996. TRANSFER STATION Robert B. Angell, Superintendent In 1996 the Yarmouth/Barnstable Regional Transfer Station, in its fifth year of operation, saw sev- eral minor operational changes. The Station ships the Towns of Barnstable, Or- leans and Yarmouth's solid waste, by rail, to SEMASS Partnership, a waste to energy facility, in Rochester. The SEMASS Partnership was sold this year to Ameri- can Refuel. The transition of ownership was smooth, due to the efforts of both firms. In a continuing effort to reduce operational costs the Station's rail car mover was sold. The rail cars are now moved by the Station's front end loader with a special railroad coupling attachment. The proceeds of the sale of the rail car mover were used to pur- chase a backhoe. The backhoe is being used to pack the rail cars more efficiently with increased tonnage in each railroad car. With the successful use of the backhoe the Town was able to renegotiate its con- tract with Bay Colony Railroad Corporation for a re- duction of the per ton hauling costs, basically elimi- nating the expected 1997 increase. Japan's interest in our methods of solid waste rail transportation continued this year, with visits from many city officials from different Japanese communi- ties, and varying Japanese commercial endeavors. The Station saw a minor failure this past winter in its seagull deterrent. The heavy snows weighed down the overhead lines and many lines broke under the strain. The system has since been upgraded to incorporate a more durable and resilient stainless steel line. The Station saw a slight increase in the total amount of refuse shipped this year, over 1995. The tonnage report for 1996 is as follows: Barnstable 46,079.05 tons Orleans 24,909.25 tons Yarmouth 3.340.08 tons Total Shipped 74,328.38 tons in 1840 rail cars The Transfer Station is open six days a week, closing Sundays, New Years Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day. The Station operates with a full time staff of four people. I would personally like to thank my staff, full and part time; all Town Departments; the commercial waste haulers; and the Yarmouth/Barnstable Regional Trans- fer Station's Board of Managers, for their support. Respectfully submitted, George R. Allaire Director 183 OTHER COMMITTEES AND DEPARTMENTS REPORT OF THE CABLE ADVISORY COMMITTEE The committee had four meetings during 1996, with an average attendance of almost 75% by the members. The agendas included discussions con- cerning complaints from cablevision subscribers, the transfers of the cablevision license, results of the committee's survey which was mailed with all tax bills, and what the plans should be for requesting new and/ or altered items in the current cablevision contract when it comes up for renewal. At the present time (early 1997) we are awaiting word regarding the possibility of a new contract with the Continental Cablevision Co. In the meantime we will continue to address whatever questions or prob- lems come before the committee, and work for the best possible answers and/or solutions. Respectfully submitted, Lawrence Camerlengo Gerald Garnick Louis Grimaldi Bruce Millen Jeffrey Peden Donald Thompson 184 REPORT OF THE CAPE COD REGIONAL TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT Again we extend our gratitude to the mem- bers of the communities in our district who have afforded us the opportunity to be of service. Several major projects were completed for district towns sav-:, ing the taxpayers many thousands of dollars. We were. privileged to serve a multitude of district residents by providing services ,in Culinary Arts, Cosmetology, Carpentry, Electrical, Plumbing, Marine Mechanics, Masonry, Marine Mechanics, Auto Technology, Auto Collision Technology, Horticulture, Graphic Arts, HeatingNentilation/Air Conditioning, Electronics, and Welding, enabling our students to refine their skills while instilling pride in their accomplishments which is the ultimate goal of vocational technical education. Additionally, we maintain an excellent Co -Operative Program with local businesses. Eleventh graders were the first students to be enrolled in the new two-year Dental Assisting Program and their learning experience took place within a new well-equipped dental lab. Also initiated was a CAD (Computer Aided Design) Program which provides support services and training to our vocational technical programs. Our new Library has become the Technological Center of Cape Cod Tech. As is our usual practice, we will have a very busy summer at the school, providing academic makeup and enrichment classes for high school and middle school students in the Lower Cape Creative Enrichment Program in conjunction with Chatham, Nauset, and Harwich. Additionally, there will be ap- proximately 90 students in the Job Training and Employment Corporation Program, 50 students from grades 5, 6, and 7 in the Summer Exploratory Pro- gram vocational venture, 12 students in the Work Experience Program, a Life Skills Program, an Adult Evening Program, a Soccer Camp, and the annual Quilt Show. An Admissions Policy, Affirmative Action Policy, Five Year Technology Plan, Acceptable Use Policy for On -Line Services, and a Time and Learning Plan were approved and adopted by the School Committee to further enhance the education and opportunities of staff and students. Cape Cod Tech was given a prestigious training award from Simmons College for the infusion of computers in the classroom. Community Education and Training Programs developed and managed funds derived from Grants, Tuition, and Fees, which were expended in services, equipment, and resources for the students of Cape Cod Tech and the youth and adult members of our sending towns. Cape Cod Tech has the distinction of being one of only seven Technical Academic Assess- ment Centers in Massachusetts offering services to students and adults in all public and private schools and agencies in Southeastern Massachusetts which include comprehensive vocational and academic assessments, learning style profiles, and academic and vocational instructional strategies. Cape Cod Tech is also involved in a School -to Careers Partner- ship for Cape Cod and the Islands. Several students were awarded gold medals in the VICA State Competitions and one student placed fourth in National Competition. On behalf of the School Committee, our twenty- first graduating class, and the students, faculty and staff of Cape Cod Tech, we thank you for your sup- port of vocational technical education. Respectfully submitted, Robert Farson Current School Committee Member from the Town of Yarmouth 185 REPORT OF THE CULTURAL COUNCIL The Yarmouth Cultural Council is a local agency supported by monies from the Massachusetts Cul- tural Council for the purpose of financial encourage- ment to those individuals and/or organizations involved in the arts and humanities on Cape Cod, and particu- larly in the Town of Yarmouth. Each summer, grant applications are made available at Town Hall together with instructions on what types of projects are funded, deadline dates, and other pertinent information regarding the application process. We encourage the residents of Yarmouth to apply for these grants. Since the Council does not meet on a regular basis, please leave requests for further information with the receptionist at Town Hall. The grant applications that have been ap- proved by the Yarmouth Cultural Council for the 1997 season are as follows: • Cub Scout Pack 59 will attend a performance of the Cape Cod Symphony . • Laurence C. MacArthur students will attend a performance of the Zeiterion Theater. • An educational program on Native American Research will be held at local schools and libraries. • "In Depth Visual Arts" program will be spon- sored for the Cape Museum of Fine Arts. • A concert by the Quintessential Brass at the Mattacheese Middle • Partial support of Painting Demonstrations and Gallery Talks at the Cape Cod Art Association. • Art exhibit by Women Creating at the Higgins Gallery of Cape Cod Community College. • A program of Scottish music and dance at the Yarmouth Senior Center. • Dennis Yarmouth High School string students for assisting Dennis Yarmouth Elementary School music teachers in the instruction of 160 elementary students enrolled in the Dennis Yarmouth string pro- gram. • Cape Cod Chamber Music Festival will con- duct a symposium featuring the Borromeo String Quar- tet to work with middle and high school string students from Cape Cod and the Islands in a workshop and master class setting. • Partial funding of an Arts in Education Program by the Academy of Performing Arts bring actors, danc- ers and musicians to Yarmouth schools to emphasize and enhance the study of literature, history, art and music. • Partial funding to establish a resource center for Cape Artists and Arts Organizations. • Partial funding for two separate programs shown on C3TV. Last year the Yarmouth Cultural Council took a booth at the Yarmouth Seaside Festival for the pur- pose of publicizing our grant program. It is our hope to make our residents aware of our efforts to support the arts and humanities in Yarmouth.

In addition to continued service to Yarmouth's disabled persons, this year the Commission focused on educating the public. The Handicapped Patrol, with the guidance of Yarmouth Police Officer Chris Kent, has begun moni- toring handicapped parking compliance. Members of this patrol are taught the procedural issues of Massa- chusetts law and then instructed so those volunteers are able to assist in monitoring and ticketing parking offenders. The Commission is planning to enhance this work with an educational component and work coop- eratively with local businesses in educating custom- ers on accessibility rights of the disabled. The Com- mission is planning a "mock ticketing" this spring to raise the level of public awareness, prior to the com- pliance ticketing campaign. A plan is being developed to assist business awareness on handicapped parking signage and ef- forts to help businesses adapt their operations towards more accessibility in efforts to serve both the disabled community and the business. Our goal for next year is to have increased par- ticipation from citizen's and businesses as well as stay- ing focused on education, awareness and accessibil- ity for all. Respectfully submitted, Selectmen Chairman Maureen Rischitelli Lillian Morris Mary Collard Lydia Pender Bruce Millen Anthony O'Loughlin Mary Zepernick, resigned REPORT OF THE YARMOUTH HOUSING AUTHORITY The Yarmouth Housing Authority is a corporate body politic authorized by and operated under Chap- ter 121B of the Massachusetts General Laws as amended, known as the Housing and Urban Renewal Law. It was incorporated in 1960 and is governed by a five -member Board of Commissioners. Marilyn E. Tanner is the Executive Director and is responsible for the daily administration of the Authority. The Authority's office is located at Long Pond Plaza,South Yarmouth. Regular meetings of the Board ..of Commissioners are held the first Monday of the :month at 7:30 a.m. at the office site. The Authority . was organized at its Annual Meeting in May 1996 as follows: Name David L. Hautanen Jeanne V. Bullock .Maureen C. Allen Gwendolyn L. Gilbert Allison Cook Title Chairman Vice -Chairman Treasurer Asst. Treasurer State Appointee Asst. Secretary Term Expires April 1997 April 2001 April 1999 May 1998 May 1998 The agency served more than five hundred low income families, elderly and special needs clients and their dependents through its rental assistance and other programs during 1996. Two developments are owned by the Authority: Long Pond Plaza, 40 apart- ments primarily for clients 60 and older; and Visions, a partnership home for teen mothers. The home is operated by a non-profit organization under contract to the Massachusetts Department of Social Services. Long Pond Plaza operated without need for state sub- sidy in 1996. As so few units of housing stock are set aside for low income individuals, the community is still far short of its statutory obligation to provide a reserve of permanent, affordable housing units for lower in- come individuals. Several program changes to federal tenant - based rental assistance were realized in 1996. Va- cated Section 8 Certificates and Vouchers are frozen for ninety days before they can be re -issued to any- one on waiting lists. Fair market rents (FMR's) which are higher in Barnstable County than other areas of the Commonwealth will be lowered to the 40th per- centile. This change decreases the number of units available to program participants. Program income for administrative purposes cannot be earned for vacated 187 CertificatesNouchers. Staff cuts have been necessi- tated as a result. Nearly 1000 families, elderly and disabled, remain on the waiting lists which have been closed since May 1995. During 1996 the agency joined other Cape Cod housing authorities in promoting the Section 8 Family Self -Sufficiency Program. Dennis Housing Authority was instrumental in securing a federal grant for a co- ordinator who provides counseling for educational and employment opportunities to participants. Various in- centives are offered to this hard-working group whose goal is to become independent from rental assistance. The majority of eager applicants are Yarmouth Hous- ing Authority clients. The Massachusetts Rental Voucher Program (MRVP state rental assistance) still provides assis- tance to nearly 150 elderly, families and disabled in- dividuals in Yarmouth during 1996. The total number of Vouchers continued to decline as they are a non- renewable resource. Although the Legislature in- creased administrative fees to a 1980's level, there is little doubt that the Program will continue to be phased out. The modernization grant "awarded" in 1994 to assist us in making safety improvements and to com- ply with ADA regulations, is still alive. Construction funds are now expected to be released in July 1997. With the assistance of a dedicated Fair Housing Com- mittee, CDBG funds were secured. These provided additional and improved handicapped parking to Plaza residents. A dearth of available state funds has pro- vided the incentive for the Authority to continue to apply for Block Grant Funding in 1997. The Authority gratefully acknowledges the cour- tesies afforded us by so many members of Town de- partments. Special thanks to Town Administrator Bob Lawton, Judy Daigneault and support staff; Town Plan- ner Dave Kellogg and Jeanne Bullock; Health Officer Bruce Murphy and Housing Inspector Brian Heaslip; Deputy Fire Chief Bill Greene and a marvelous YFD; Assistant Town Clerk Jane Hastings; and Sanitation Chief Peter Homer. The Highway Department receives our gratitude for the outstanding service it provided during the extraordinary winter of 1996. The Conser- vation Commission and the Zoning Board of Appeals were particularly helpful in 1996 as the agency sought to extend construction permits for the Plaza. The com- mitment of Yarmouth town employees certainly made a substantial contribution to improving the quality of life at the Plaza. In 1996 a diligent Board of Commissioners con- tinued to explore alternative resources to increase the supply of much needed affordable housing. Commis- sioner Robert Lindquist retired with regret after many years of dedicated service to the Authority. Jeanne Bullock was elected to the vacated position. Her en- ergy and positive attitude are a great asset to us all. Staff members Lois Steele, Lynn Taylor, Jacqueline Caldwell and Ralph Lovejoy are to be commended for their efforts in the face of declining resources in a sensitive industry. Their continuing efforts are truly appreciated. We all look forward to better days in 1997. Respectfully submitted, Marilyn E. Tanner, Executive Director' 188 Bruce D. Norling, CPA, P.C. INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT To the School Committee - Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District I have audited the general purpose financial statements of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, as of June 30, 1996, and for the year then ended. These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the provisions of Office of Management and Budget Circular A-128, Audits of State and Local Governments. Those standards and OMB Circular A-128 require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. The District prepares its general purpose. financial statements using accounting principles which are in conformity with the Uniform Municipal Accounting System promulgated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Revenue. As described in Note 2, these accounting principles differ in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the area of accounting for fixed assets. The effects of this difference on the accompanying general purpose financial statements have not been quantified. In accordance with Government Auditing Standard, I have also issued a report dated August 9, 1996 on my consideration of the School District's internal control structure and a report dated August 9, 1996 on its compliance with laws and regulations. In my opinion, except for the effects on the general purpose financial statements of the item described in the third paragraph, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, as of June 30, 1996, and the result of its operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles..

DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Financial Statements 1 S9mmary of Significant Accounting Policies The accounting policies of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District (the School District) as reflected in the accompanying financial statements for the year ended June 30, 1996 conform to generally accepted accounting principles for local government units except as indicated hereinafter. The more significant accounting policies of the School District are summarized below: A) Fund Accounting . For reporting purposes, the financial activities of the School District are accounted forthrough the use of various funds. Each fund is a separate accounting entity with self -balancing accounts. The following types of funds are used by the School District: General Fund - to account for all financial activities of the School District, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Most revenues and expenditures of a general operational nature are accounted for in this fund. Special Revenue Funds - to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. Trust Funds - to account for assets held by the School District in a trustee capacity. Trust funds are classified as expendable or nonexpendable depending on whether the principal portion of the fund balance may be expended, or whether only investment income may be used. The District presently has no nonexpendable trust fund balances. In 1996, the District .created 'a workers' compensation trust fund as provided by Chapter 40 Section 13C of Massachusetts General Laws. This trust fund receives an annually established amount from the general fund. Capital Projects - These funds account for major capital improvements which are financed from the School District's general obligation bond issues or through other special sources. B) Basis of Accounting The modified accrual method of accounting is used for all of the School District's funds. Under the modified accrual method, revenues are recorded when susceptible to accrual (i.e., measurable and available to finance the School District's operations) and expenditures are recorded when the liability is incurred. 194 C) Fixed Assets Property, plant and equipment acquired or constructed for general operational services are recorded as expenditures. Generally accepted accounting principles require that such assets be accounted for in a "general fixed assets group of accounts". The School District does not maintain such an account group. D) Budgetary Data General Budget Policies The Regional District School Committee annually determines the amount to be raised (after deducting the amount of anticipated revenue the district expects to receive) to maintain and operate the School District during the next fiscal year and apportions the amount among the member towns in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The amounts apportioned to each town are certified by the regional school district treasurer to the treasurers of the towns. Each town appropriates the amounts so certified at the next annual meeting. E) Assets, Liabilities, and Fund Equity Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash balances from all funds, except those required to be segregated by law, are combined to form a consolidation of cash. Cash balances are invested to the extent available and interest earnings are recognized in the General Fund. Certain special revenue funds and fiduciary funds cash are segregated and investment earnings become part of those funds. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first -in, first -out) or market. Inventories in the Special Revenue Funds consist of expendable supplies of the food service program. Cost is recorded as an expenditure at the time of purchase. Inventories are offset by a reserve since they do not constitute available spendable resources. • Warrants and Salaries Payable - This represents Fiscal Year 1996 bills/salaries owed by the District and paid during the first 15 days of Fiscal Year 1997. Fund Balance Reserve for Encumb Inces - Appropriations that are carried over into the next fiscal year and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities are reported as reservations of fund. equity. Fund Balance Reserved for Eicnenditures - This represents amounts reserved from undesignated fund balance to be reapportioned to reduce the Fiscal Year 1997 assessments to the member towns. 195 3. School District Assessments Under terms of the agreement, as amended, establishing the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, the School District's costs are apportioned and assessments are levied against the towns forming the District. The School District's costs are apportioned as follows: Costs to be Apportioned Principal and interest relating to debt issued subsequent to July 1, 1975 Special operating costs, princi- pally related to providing evening educational programs Operating costs, by facility, other than Central Office costs Central Office costs Basis of Apportionment Enrollment of the respective towns Pupil hours of the respective towns relating to such pro- grams Enrollment of the respective towns Total enrollment of the re- spective towns 4. Employee Benefit Plans A) Teachers, certain administrative personnel and other professional employees are covered by and must participate in the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement System (MTRS). The School District is not required to contribute to MTRS. MTRS is fully funded by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and by contributions from covered employees. The Commonwealth is required to make actuarially determined contributions that maintain the financial integrity of the System. The amount of the current funding by the Commonwealth is not available. All persons employed on at least a half-time basis, who are covered under a contractual agreement requiring certification by the Board of Education, are eligible and must participate in the MTRS. Under the pension plan, benefits are vested immediately if the employee is under 55 years of age. Participants are eligible to receive a retirement allowance once they have completed 20 years of service or have reached age fifty-five. If participants joined the system after January 1, 1978, they must complete ten years of service before receiving a retirement allowance. 196 F) Total Columns On Combined Statements - Overview Total columns on the Combined Statements - Overview are captioned "Memorandum Only" to facilitate financial analysis. Data in these columns do not present financial position, results of operations, or changes in financial position in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Neither is such data comparable to consolidation. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of this data. G) Financial Reporting Entity The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, for financial reporting purposes, includes all funds and account groups relevant to the operations of its schools. The financial statements presented herein do not include agencies which have been formed under applicable state laws as separate and distinct units of government apart from the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. The following governmental units are specifically excluded from the School District's financial statements: Town of Dennis Town of Yarmouth Barnstable County Also, several student, activity funds belonging to various student functions and activities have not been included in the accompanying financial statements. At June 30, 1996, these student activity funds comprised approximately $110,000 maintained in several checking accounts controlled by the School District. H) The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Departures From Generally Accepted Accounting Principles The significant departure of the School District's financial statements from generally accepted accounting principles is as follows: General fixed asset acquisitions are recorded as expenditures and not capitalized in a general fixed asset group of accounts. 197 Based on. the Commonwealth of Massachusetts retirement laws, employees covered by the pension plan must contribute a percentage of their gross earnings up to $30,000, into the pension fund. The percentage is determined by the participant's date of entry into the system and his/her total gross earnings up to $30,000 as follows: Before January 1, 1975 5% January 1, 1975 -December 31, 1983 7% After January 1, 1984 8% Effective January 1, 1989, all participants hired after January 1, 1979 must pay their regular contribution percentage, as outlined above, plus 2% of salary in excess of $30,000. The payroll for teaching staff covered by MTRS for the year ended June 30, 1996 was approximately $15,215,618. B) Non -teaching employees: Substantially all of the School District's non -teaching employees participate in the Barnstable County Retirement Association (the "System"), a multiple -employer public employee retirement system. The payroll for employees covered by the System for the year ended June 30, 1996 was $3,603,674. Substantially all non -teaching employees of the School District not covered by the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement System (see above) are eligible to participate in the System. Under the provisions of this retirement plan, employees contribute certain percentages of their pay: 5% if hired prior to 1975, 7% if hired in 1975 through 1983, and 8% if hired in 1984 and later, and are eligible for retirement benefits after meeting the required age -in-service criteria. Annual retirement benefits, generally, range up to 2.5 times average pay, as defined, times years of creditable service. For employees hired after January 1, 1979, pay in excess of $30,000 a year is not included in arriving at average pay used in determining the amount of the employee's pension, but is included in determining the amount of the employee's required contribution to the plan. In fiscal 1992, the $30,000 salary cap wasremoved and an additional 2% employee contribution was added on regular pay over $30,000 to employees hired after January 1, 1979. The School District's annual contribution is determined by the State Division of Public Employees Retirement Administration. The System requires funding of accrued pension liabilities actuarially in order to pay the employer normal cost plus amortization of the original unfunded actuarial accrued liability by 2027. The contribution requirement for the year ended June 30, 1996 was $716,786 which consisted of $428,019 from the School District and $288,767 from employees. 198 The pension benefit obligation is a standardized disclosure measure of the present value of pension benefits, adjusted for the effects of projected salary increases and'step-rate benefits estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date. The measure, which is the actuarial present value of credited projected benefits, is intended to help users assess the System's funding status on a going -concern basis, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due, and make comparisons among public employee retirement systems and employers. The System makes separate measurements of assets and pension benefit obligations for individual employers. A summary of the actuarial valuation for the latest date for which information is available follows: Pension benefit obligation, Net assets available for benefits (valued at market) Unfunded pension benefit obligation $ Millions (1/1/96) (1/1/93) System as a the School Whole District $250.7 159.2 $ 91.5 6.4. 2.6 3.8 Significant actuarial assumptions used in the valuation include: 1. Rate of investment return of 896 per year. 2. Projected salary increase -of -5.5% per year. 3. No cost -of -living increases have been assumed as these benefits are the responsibility of.the state. 4.. Assets held are valued,at market value as reported to the Public Employees'. Retirement Administration (PERA). The three year and ten year historical trend information showing the System's progress in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due is not available. In fiscal 1992, the School District elected to establish a funding schedule to amortize the School District's unfunded actuarial liabilities plus normal cost. The normal cost and unfunded actuarial liability are calculated in accordance with the entry age normal actuarial cost method. Amortization of the unfunded actuarial liability is based on a 40 year schedule for unfunded liabilities prior to removal of the $30,000 salary cap, and 15 year amortization of the additional unfunded liability for removal of the salary cap. The annual amortization for each liability is allowed to increase each year by no more than 4.5%. Payments determined under this funding schedule totaled $131,898 for fiscal 1996. 199 Sick Leave Benefit Under terms of the contracts covering teaching employees of the School District, certified employees are entitled to fifteen days of paid sick leave, annually. Unused sick leave may be accumulated indefinitely up to a specified maximum. In the event of death, separation, or retirement of an employee having completed ten years of service, such employee or "the employee's estate" shall be compensated at one-half the current daily short term substitute rate for accumulated sick leave. In the case of those who commenced employment on or after September 1, 1975, accumulated sick leave, subject to such payment, is limited to 200 days. Certain other employees are entitled to similar benefits but shall be compensated at a rate of $2.47 per hour (or normal hourly rate for 25% of days accrued for secretaries and aides) for such accumulated sick leave based on average daily hours worked and are limited to 135 days for payment purposes. Principals and non-union administrative personnel are entitled to 400 days (regardless of employment commencement date) and compensated at 12% of their current daily wage. Such accumulated vested sick leave has been recognized in the accounts of the School District as to the liability at June 30, 1996. Deferred Compensation All permanent School District Employees, either full or part-time, may participate in a deferred compensation plan. The deferred compensation plan is a supplemental, long-term retirement retirement savings program for public employees. An insurance company administers the program. The School District does not contribute to the deferred compensation plan. An employee can defer up to 25% of his/her pre-tax gross pay, not to exceed $7,500, annually. Each employee dictateshow his/her deferred wages are invested. An employee cannot withdraw contributions until he/she has attained the age of 59 1/2 years, has terminated employment, or can demonstrate economic hardship. The School District is the contractual and beneficial holder of the deferred compensation plan's assets, but has no authority over how the funds are invested. 5. Deposits and Investments The School District maintains cash deposits that are available for use by all funds. Each fund type's portion of these deposits, is reflected on the combined financial statements under the caption "cash" and the interest earnings attributable to each fund type is included under "investment income". State and local statutes place certain limitations on the nature of deposits and investments available to the School District. Deposits (including demand deposits, term deposits and 200 certificates of deposit) in any one financial institution may not exceed certain levels without collateralization by the financial institutions involved. Investments can also be made in securities issued by or unconditionally guaranteed by the U.S. Government or Agencies that have a maturity of less than one year from date of purchase, and repurchase agreements guaranteed by such securities with maturity dates of no more than 90 days from date of purchase.

In addition,the bank balance at June 30, 1996 was approximately $1,000,000 greater than the book balance above primarily due to check disbursements issued but not presented for payment at the bank. Substantially all these checks subsequently cleared the bank. 6. Long -Term Debt The Schools District's long-term debt issues constitute a pledge of the School District's full faith and credit. Payment is not limited to a particular revenue source. 201 Changes in General Obligation Bonds Payable The following is a summary of bond principal transactions School District for the year ended June 30, 1996: Long-term debt, July 1, 1995 $8,380,000 Bond anticipate notes issued 300,000 Bonds retired: Station Ave. Wixon Notes retired: General Obligation Elementary Sch (390,000) (260,000) Notes (120,000) Long-term debt, June 30, 1996 $7,910,000 The School District's outstanding indebtedness following at June 30, 1996: Fiscal Year Interest Bonds: of Maturity Rate Station Ave. Elementary School 2009 Wixon Addition 2005 Notes: Renovations-Erza Baker School 1998 Temporary financing- Mattacheese School Total Long -Term Debt principal and interest Fiscal Year 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001-2009 Total Bonds 1,054,842 1,012,722 972,942 938,622 5,876,175 Debt of the consists of the Principal Outstanding June 30, 1996 4.699% (avg) 7.240%(avg) 3.66*(avg) $ 5,030,000 2,340,000 7,370,000 240,000 300,000 $ 7,910,000 are payable as follows: Temp Notes Financing Total 129,300 300,000 1,484,142 124,800 1,137,522 972,942 938,622 5,876,175 $ 9,855,303 $254,000 $300,000 $10,409,403 ====-=====_ =======_ 7. Leased Commitments The School District leases four elementary and two middle schools within the towns of Dennis and Yarmouth, whereby the School District has the use of these facilities through June 30, 2015. Under the terms of the agreements, the School District is responsible for the cost of operation, including utilities and insurance, and maintenance of these facilities. 202 Future minimum rental payments required under operating leases that have remaining noncancellable lease terms in excess of one year as of June 30, 1996, are as follows: 1997 $161,935, 1998 141,500 1999 74,723 2000 68,723 2001 11,963 $458,844 _______ The lease term commitments are dependent upon an annual budget appropriation by the School District. 8. Education Reform Act of 1993 MGL Chapter 70, as amended by the Education Reform Act of 1993, specifically states that local and regional school districts must meet their net school spending. Net school spending is made up of the minimum local contribution and Chapter 70 state aid. The School District appropriated sufficient funds in FY '96 and met the net school spending requirements. The minimum local contribution is computed by the state. The following are the FY '96 Minimum Local Contributions for the School District. Dennis $ 7,807,549 Yarmouth 10,770,827 $18,578,376 This is the minimum each community must contribute to support the net school spending at the School District. Net school spending includes all spending except transportation, debt service, capital costs. 9. 1997 Budget The School District has authorized a fiscal 1997 operating and debt retirement budget totaling $27,835,131 which will be financed from the following sources: Assessments to member towns Anticipated aid from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Other local sources Utilization of available funds $21,154,960 6,198,113 382,058 100,000 $27,835,131 10. Workers' Compensation Trust Fund Payments of Claims $ 2,935 Reinsurance Premium, Loss Control Services and Claims Administration. 23,036 TOTAL EXPENDITURES 25,971 _______ In addition, the estimated future liability for claims that existed at June 30, 1996 is not considered significant. 203 REPORT OF THE LICENSE & PERMITS OFFICE The License & Permits office issues resident beach and landfill stickers, shellfish licenses, and also renews and Issues liquor, entertainment, amusement, Class I and II car dealers licenses and other miscella- neous licenses and permits. Among other duties, we compile data for budget purposes of annual consump- tion and cost of energy, telephone, central purchas- ing and town hall and other properties.

It is comprised of five mem- bers, one of whom is recommended by the Finance Committee. The Board's duties are to review and rec- ommend the following to the Board of Selectmen: 1. The establishment of policies, procedures and regulations as it deems necessary for non-union per- sonnel; 2. The appropriate content and format of all ex- isting job descriptions, as well as all new positions 8,960 based on job content; 897 8 47 74 34 38 13 4 14 204 3. Suggested changes in the Miscellaneous Compensation Schedule for seasonal positions; and 4. Other related duties as assigned by the Board of Selectmen. The Personnel Board completed the following projects during 1996. It should be noted that many of these projects were discussed at more than one meet- ing, as additional information was sometimes needed before the board took action. 1. Discussed, over three meetings, the position description of an Assistant Town Treasurer, which in- cluded the duties of the Payroll Clerk. 2. Ratified the position of Office Assistant in the Town Clerk's office, as a result of a prolonged vacancy. 3. Modified the position of Natural Resources Supervisor. 4. Reviewed and amended the position descrip- tion of Librarian. 5. Reviewed and graded the position descrip- tion of HUD Grand Coordinator/Economic Develop- ment Assistant. 6. Eliminated the position of Building and Grounds Maintenance Worker from the Park/Cem- etery Department. 7. Amended the pay rates of the following posi- tions on the Miscellaneous Compensation Schedule: Call Firefighters, including stipends for command staff; Deputy Shellfish Constable; Beach Coordinator; Head Guard; Lifeguard; Swim Instructor; Senior and Junior Counselors; and Program Coordinators. The Personnel Board looks forward to the imple- mentation of the new Personnel Study during 1997. The Study is important as it updates the job descrip- tions for Town personnel as a result of the 1995 reor- ganization. In addition, it provides a new tool to mea- sure employee productivity and performance. The Personnel Board meets on the fourth Tues- day of each month at 7:00 p.m. at Town Hall. The public is invited to attend the meetings.

The committee reviewed the Land- fill Closure Consent Order and also were kept advised of progress made in this activity on a monthly basis. The first phase was completed in 1996 and phase two is scheduled for completion in 1997. RASWAC was also involved in reviewing plans for the reconfiguration of the residential drop off area. Plans of the new residential drop off area for solid waste and recyclables were reviewed. The commit- tee was represented on the group studying the layout proposed for the nine hole golf course addition to the Bayberry Hills Golf Club and recreation facilities through member George Morgenroth. RASWAC kept in touch with activities at the Town Transfer Station by reviewing monthly reports on ton- nage handled at this facility. The committee reviewed the contract with the waste to energy facility at SEMASS and felt the contract was secure for at least another decade, even though there has been a change in ownership at SEMASS. Recycling activities involved a visit to the off-site co -mingled recycling center utilized by the contractor for the Town. RASWAC prepared an alphabetical list- ing of proper disposal of various materials at the Town drop off area. Efforts to increase recycling activity in the Town commercial facilities, like restaurants, met with little success although efforts to do so will continue. Simi- larly efforts in the D -Y School District were also un- successful. The market for recyclables took a severe down turn in 1996 and it now costs the Town to dispose of these materials. This will lead to a review of the eco- nomics of an aggressive recycling program. RASWAC reviewed the D.E.P. report card on recycling percentages and commented through the press on the inequities of the methods of reporting. RASWAC provided input to the Growth Policy Committee on what the future activities of the com- mittee will be for the Comprehensive Plan. RASWAC worked with the County in setting up collection sites for Nickel Cadmium batteries for recy- cling. RASWAC was represented on the Barnstable County Solid Waste Management Committee by Jo- seph Sarnosky and the Council of SEMASS Commu- nities by Joseph Sarnosky and Robert B. Angell, Transfer Station Superintendent. The committee accepted with regret the resig- nation of David Lillie and Leslie Petrie. Replacements are needed. We also report with sadness the pass- ing of Charles Carosso. Respectfully submitted, Joseph R. Sarnosky James Carlaw Peter Homer George Morgenroth 206 REPORT OF THE YARMOUTH SCHOLARSHIP FUND COMMITTEE 1996 Pursuant to Section 3 of Chapter 712 of Massa- chusetts General Laws, the Yarmouth Board of Se- lectmen voted to create a Scholarship Fund to ben- efit college -bound Yarmouth students. Funds are raised via a voluntary check -off which is enclosed in the Fall property tax and water bills and by a Charity Golf Tournament organized by the Green Company of Yarmouthport. This civic -minded Yarmouth company contributed $7,000 to the fund in 1996. We are extremely grateful for their continued generosity. Applications are completed by any college - bound Yarmouth student who is in need of financial assistance. These applications are reviewed by the five -member Scholarship Fund Committee which screens the applications for financial need, academic achievement, involvement in school/community ac- tivities and any other factors deemed relevant by the committee. The Committee selected the following Yarmouth residents for scholarships in 1996: $500.00: Geoffrey Allanbrook, Adrian Bogle, Jeremy Bogle; $750.00: Wylder Klein, Erin Casey, Patrick Hinds, Gerald Shaw; $1,000: Sarah Anne Wilson, Kurt Svoboda, David Svoboda; $1,500: Nancy Callahan, Valerie Grassetti, and Dawn Linda Schimmrich. All students displayed a commitment to both their school and community. We wish them well in pursu- ing their goals. On behalf of the deserving students who receive these scholarships each year, the Committee wishes to thank each Yarmouth taxpayer who contributed to the Fund as well as the Green Company for their con- tinued generosity. Respectfully submitted, Christopher C. Bowman Dr. Michael McCaffrey Lucia Barber Sandra Femino Marcia Nugent REPORT OF THE D -Y STUDY COMMITTEE The D -Y Study Committee was formed in July of 1996. Its mission was to prepare "policies and spe- cial'legislation to reform the budget process of the two -town Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District? Its membership was to be four citizens to be appointed by each of the Boards of Selectmen. In its organizational meeting, the Committee voted to request that the Selectmen permit additional committee membership to come from recommenda- tions from the D -Y School Committee. One additional member from each Town was thus added. The Committee, mostly on a weekly basis, has held fact-finding meetings with the citizens of each Town, the Selectmen of each Town, the Finance Com- mittees of each Town, the D -Y School Committee, the Superintendent of Schools together with the Town Administrators, and, finally, with our State legislators. Good and diverse input was received from all of these sources and several areas of misunderstand- ing, or poor or outdated procedures were identified. Your Committee is optimistic that it will be able 'xo offer some recommendations for improvement 'which will be acceptable to those involved. Hopefully, more amicable relationships among the entities will be forthcoming as a result. Respectfully submitted, I.

Small Elem. School Beverly Capers, Computer 12 years Dept. Head, District Report of Carol C. McGuire, Chair Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District Committee The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District is made up of 4,542 students, 570 employees, 9 build- ings, 255 acres of grounds and playing fields, as well as all of the books and equipment necessary to pro- vide an education for the children of Dennis and Yarmouth. The District is governed by a school com- mittee consisting of 7 members, 3 elected by Dennis voters and 4 elected by Yarmouth voters. In April of 1996 Yarmouth voters filled the 2 available positions by re-electing E. Suzanne McAuliffe to a 3rd term and by electing Bradford Egan to a 1st term. In Dennis the vacancy created by the retirement of Frederick W. Johnson was filled by Carolyn C. Young. On behalf of the committee I would take this opportunity to thank both Dr. Johnson and Elizabeth 0. Flanagan of Yarmouth for their contributions and service to the children and citizens of our towns. The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District Committee meets in open session on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of each month, at 7 p.m. at the Station Av- enue Elementary School in Yarmouth. The meetings are televised on Ch. 21. Sub -committees meet to con- sider such items as curriculum, collective bargaining, transportation and school building needs. This year we established a Fiscal Planning Committee which has redefined the way our budget is considered and presented in order to make it more uniform and more easily understood. In addition we are in the process of developing a Long Range Planning Committee which will make suggestions about the future direc- tion of our school district. All sub -committee recom- mendations are brought to the full school committee for consideration. The primary responsibilities of a Massachusetts school committee are to employ a superintendent to manage the district, to establish policies which the superintendent and administrators will use in carry- ing out their day-to-day responsibilities, and to approve the budget. Your school committee is responding to these responsibilities in the following ways: 1. We have evaluated the performance of the superintendent and reported on the results of that evaluation. In addition, we have adopted the recently promulgated MA De- partment of Education Administrative Performance Standards for future annual evaluations of the super- intendent. 2. We have undertaken a complete review and updating of our policy manual. This is important and time-consuming work which requires input from our staff and would benefit from public input as well. All policy adoptions and changes are considered in open meetings. 3. The consideration of our budget has always taken place in open session, at meetings running from September through the town meetings This year the committee adopted the recommenda- tions of its Fiscal Planning Committee and improved the methods for presentation, consideration and ap- proval of the District budget. In addition, the committee participated in a self- evaluation, facilitated by a consultant from the Mass. Association of School Committees, has reported its findings to the community, and is making changes based on the results of that effort. Citizens elected to serve as members of school committees are not required to be educators or even to be familiar with education issues. Our responsibil- ity is to listen and learn more about the accomplish- ments of our children and the needs of our schools, and then to establish policies and make decisions which reflect your values, your concerns and your goals and expectations for the children in our towns. We understand the need for increased accountability from all, higher standards for all, and more efficient and effective use of resources. It is my hope, and I believe that of all members of your school committee, that we can respond to local concerns, as well as to the Massachusetts Education Reform Act in an atmo- sphere of trust, cooperation and collaboration, and at a pace that will not be harmful to our district or to our students. We cannot do the job you elected us to do without your trust and support. Finally, on behalf of the entire committee, I would like to acknowledge the contributions of time and equipment made to the District by many of our citi- zens and businesses. The schools of Dennis and Yarmouth would be different places without your on- going assistance, and we sincerely thank you. 209 Respectfully submitted, Carol C. McGuire, Chair Report of Dr. Michael D. McCaffrey Superintendent of Schools October 1, 1996 enrollments show minimal changes compared to a year ago. In Dennis the num- ber has declined from 1858 students to 1828. Yarmouth shows a decrease from 2689 students to 2681 students. While declines have occurred in the past two years, this is probably a temporary phenom- enon. The entering kindergarten is at 365 students and the exiting grade 12 is at 220 students. While many school districts are experiencing an increase of state aid due to the Massachusetts Edu- cational Reform Law, this district is not. Ten years ago we received about 26% of our budget from state aid. Today, that has dropped to 21%, a loss of almost $1.5 million dollars. In 1996, five Proposition 2 1/2 override elections have failed to increase local revenue for edu- cational expenses. It was necessary to cut $2.4 mil- lion dollars from the 95-96 budget including 43 posi- tions. If increased state or local aid is not forthcoming in the near future, the district will be forced to continue to compromise programs through budget cuts. While the financial parts of the Massachusetts Educational Reform Law leave the district in serious financial straits, there are positive accomplishments that have come with the legislation: • Professional standards for teachers and ad- ministrators have been adopted. • General level high school courses have been discontinued in order to promote a more challenging program of studies. • The district has produced a comprehensive new curriculum in math, science and technology which has been guided by frameworks issued by the state. • Comprehensive planning guides for profes- sional development and technology have been de- veloped. • A community-based health advisory commit- tee has been formed. • Students are able to enroll in college credits at Cape Cod Community College while attending high school. • The district has joined the school choice pro- gram which opens enrollments to students in other communities and will bring in additional state aid. • Test scores of Dennis -Yarmouth students in the Massachusetts Educational Assessment program have remained stable and have again exceeded state averages. In the principalships of the eight schools in the district, there has been one change in 1996. Patrick Schettini, formerly the assistant principal at Reading, MA. High School has been appointed principal of Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School, replacing Thomas Lemond who had served for a year while a search was being conducted for the principal.. The continuing efforts of volunteer citizens have made possible the wide array of services we offer stu- dents. These volunteers, ranging from policy makers on the elected school committee, to an assistant coach, to a chaperone on a field trip are all essential participants in the work of the district. Their efforts are most appreciated. Report of David W. Crellin Director of Instruction The Education Reform Act of 1993, now in its third year, continues to influence curriculum develop- ment in this as in every other district in the common- wealth. Among its many features, the Act provided for the establishment of Curriculum Frameworks in seven areas of instruction: Mathematics, Science/Technol- ogy, History and Social Science, Language Arts, Health, World Languages, and the Arts. This is the first time in the history of education in Massachusetts that the state has attempted to determine the content of individual districts' curricula. Until now local districts have had absolute authority to determine what stu- dents will learn in each subject area. To assure that individual districts are complying with the education reform initiative, the state will begin administering tests to students in grades 4, 8, and 10 in the spring of 1998. The tests will be based on only 210 four of the frameworks: Mathematics, Science/Tech- nology, History and Social Science, and Language Arts. Districts will be obliged to devise their own assessments to measure student progress in the other three areas and will be audited to make sure they do so. The tests will be called the Massachusetts Com- prehensive Assessment System or "MCAS." They will be different from any other statewide tests, such as the MEAP, ever administered. The first difference is that they will be based on specific curriculum frame- works rather than on arbitrarily chosen content. The second is that they will yield individual student results as opposed to the merely school and district results we have received in the past. These results will en- able us, for the first time, to know which students are making sufficient progress and which are not. The third difference is that the MCAS test will have conse- quences attached to student performance. Students will have to pass this test in order to receive a diploma from a Massachusetts high school. Because they will take it initially in their sophomore year, and may re- take it in each succeeding year, they will have at least three chances to pass. As the frameworks have been published, we have used them to review our present curricula and make modifications where necessary to assure that our instruction will prepare students for the tests. At present only two of the seven Frameworks, Mathemat- ics and Science/Technology, have been adopted by vote of the State Board of Education. This year we have fully implemented a new math program, Every Day Mathematics, in grades K-5, which is based ex- plicitly on the Mathematics framework. Next year we will extend that program to grade 6 for all students after having conducted a pilot test of it this year. In science we are completing year three of a five year project to revise our grades K-8 science program based on the Science/Technology Frame- work. When the project is completed we will have a series of six science units for each grade level based on students' inquiry and manipulation of materials in the areas of biology, physics, and earth and space sciences. Each monthly meeting of the Curriculum Sub - Committee of the School Committee features a sta- tus report on one curriculum area. The public is wel- come at our meetings and encouraged to call the In- struction Office for a schedule or meeting dates, times, and topics. Report of the J. Peter Regan Director of Special Services The special education staff and the programs they serve are under increasing stress due to costs associated with the education of our disabled popula- tion. This is not the result of more children being en- rolled in special education but rather the result of greater levels of need than was apparent only a few years ago. As noted in previous reports, we continue to maintain a percentage of special education enroll- ment that is well below state and local averages. In Dennis -Yarmouth we have large numbers of children with multiple disabilities including significant intellectual limitations, pervasive developmental dis- order, attention deficit disorder and obsessive/com- pulsive behavior. These students often need close supervision and small group instruction. Special Edu- cation Law requires that educational plans be written to afford "maximum feasible benefit in the least re- strictive educational environment." This sometimes requires additional special education aides to moni- tor and assist significantly impaired students in the classroom. A re-evaluation of some of the requirements of the special education law is being undertaken at both the federal and state level. Unintended consequences of a very good law have caused an increase in litiga- tion. This is expensive, time consuming, and leads to an adversarial process which may not benefit the chil- dren involved. The schools are being asked more and more to become partners in expensive medical or paramedical interventions. This adds enormously to the serious financial burdens we are experiencing. We are making every effort to supplement our costs through creative grant writing. We now receive $294,000 in grant funds in the early childhood area. Our early childhood grants have been instrumental in providing children's librarians in Dennis and Yarmouth. We have received grants this year to assist in the education of limited English proficient children. We have written a joint grant with Cape Cod Community College to provide adult ESL and literacy programs. We appreciate the support of our school com- mittee and the willingness of the communities of Den- nis and Yarmouth to encourage excellent program- ming for our most needy students. Our staff will con- tinue to work well beyond contractual obligations to provide the best service possible given the current state of educational funding. 211 Report of Donald D. Johnson Director of Fiscal Affairs The business management team for the district is responsible for the following functions: financial plan- ning and analysis, transportation, building operation and maintenance, purchasing, fringe benefits, insur- ance, payroll, accounts payable, treasury functions, food service, and non -certified personnel. The focus of the business services for 1996 included two signifi- cant themes, financial reporting and building renova- tion projects. The 1996 fiscal year closed on a positive finan- cial note because the district instituted a series of budget cuts amounting to more than $500,000 early in the year. The lack of support for Proposition 2 1/2 override ballots in both towns required the district to cut the 1997 fiscal year budget by $2,500,000. This office had direct responsibility for planning and imple- menting reductions in custodial, clerical, and aide positions; school transportation; and energy consump- tion. A personnel policy change requiring mandatory vacation periods for custodial and clerical staff should result in savings in energy and substitute expense ac- counts. As we prepare the fiscal year 1998 budget we are working closely with the school committee fiscal planning subcommittee to develop new budget pre- sentation and reporting procedures. The district was able to use bond funds, a fed- eral energy grant and a federal Economic Develop- ment grant to complete several major renovation projects in 1996. We installed a handicapped access ramp at the MacArthur School. At the Station Avenue School we installed an oil tank and we replaced the oil burners at the Small School. Mattacheese Middle School gained a new roof and a walk-in freezer and the Baker School had the interior painted and carpets replaced and we refurbished the gymnasium. We welcomed Joan Harvey who joins the dis- trict after many years of service for New England School Supply Company as the district payroll clerk. Looking forward to the challenges of 1997 we see our efforts directed toward completing negotia- tions with the secretaries and aides association that started last year as well as negotiating a new contract for the custodial, driver, and cafeteria employees. Other significant items to be dealt with include bid- ding for a new five year transportation contract; fur- ther building renovations funded by bond funds; and development of a district -wide technology network. Report of Joanne S. Lee Food Service Coordinator The food service program continued to be self- supporting during the 1995- 1996 school year. Labor hours increased slightly to approximately 153 hours daily with 16.1 meals being produced per labor hour. Overall production increased in fiscal year 1996. The program served an average of 2470 lunches per day with a yearly participation rate of 60.4 %. This is a slight increase over the previous year. The breakfast program increased 11 % over the year before with a daily average of 224 breakfasts served. The lunch prices remained the same: $1.30 for elementary students; $1.40 for middle school students; $1.50 for high school students. The average number of students eligible for free or reduced lunch was 1045 that represents 25.6% of the entire enrollment. Cur- rently the number of eligible students as of Novem- ber 1996 is 10.70 (25.7%). Payroll made up 46.8% of the food service bud- get for fiscal year 1996 while food purchases ac- counted for 36.1%. U.S.D.A. commodities accounted for 4.4% of the budget and the remaining 12.7% went to paper supplies, cleaning supplies and other mis- cellaneous expenses. The increase in payroll is due to an increase in overall man hours and not due to hourly rate increases. The current contract with the cafeteria workers froze wages at the fiscal year 1994 rates that will continue through June 1997 when the agreement expires. One major maintenance expense was the cost of converting the walk-in freezer and refrigerator from water to air-cooled units and the installation of a new freezer box at Mattacheese Middle School, our main base of operations. The food service program continued the prac- tice of reimbursing the general fund for a portion of its fringe benefits cost by transferring $25,000 to the general fund. 212 Report of Patrick A. Schettini, Principal Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School stu- dent enrollment is 1,152 for the school year 1996- 1997 and is projected to increase slightly next year. During 1996, our students continued to enjoy aca- demic success. Eighty-two percent of the senior class planned to enter college: fifty-eight percent to attend four-year colleges or universities, twenty-four percent two-year colleges; seven percent intended to further their education at other post -secondary schools; two percent entered the military; eight percent joined the work force and one percent was undecided at gradu- ation of their future plans. The class of 1996 collec- tively received over $193,000 in scholarships at the annual Scholarship Ceremony held at the high school. Mr. Thomas A. Lemond, Jr. was appointed act- ing principal for the 1995-1996 school year and Mr. Kenneth Jenks was appointed acting assistant princi- pal. In July of 1996 a new principal was appointed, Mr. Patrick A. Schettini, Jr., who had been assistant principal at Reading Memorial High School for many years before coming to D -Y. The semester based extended period schedule continues to offer many advantages to our students and provides the opportunity for our teachers to in- corporate student centered activities into their classes more effectively and efficiently. Curriculum develop- ment focused on the Massachusetts curriculum frame- works. Student and school assessment are key ar- eas of interest and research for our faculty. Many of our teachers participated in Massachusetts Depart- ment of Education training in portfolio assessment . One of our teachers is a portfolio assessment trainer for the state. In an ambitious and unique effort to set our high school on a course for success, our school commu- nity will develop, over the next year, a Statement of Purpose that will be the guiding force behind our de- cision-making processes. The process to create this document is intended to unite our school community and provide a forum for communication among all con- stituencies of our school. The Dennis -Yarmouth Re- gional High School council will serve as the "keeper" of our Statement of Purpose. They will develop a school portfolio that will serve to assess and docu- ment our journey. Our Student Council received the Excellence Award for the second straight year as the outstanding student council in the Commonwealth. The D -Y The- ater Company reached the finals of the State Drama Festival. Our art and music students continue to re- ceive recognition for their fine accomplishments. The Horatio Alger Foundation selected D -Y as one of only two schools in the Commonwealth to participate in its scholarship and career day program. As a result, Paula Santos, a 1996 D -Y graduate, was awarded a $5,000 scholarship. Our school will hold another career day during the 1996-1997 school year. The theme of the 1996-1997 school year's Spirit Rally was "Respect." Ms. Kate Philla, president of our student council, and Mr. Robert Haff, our athletic director, led the rally. By all accounts it was an overwhelming success. Ian Cadillac, David Dykeman and Michael Walsh, students of the class of 1997, stood up and mobilized other students to promote school spirit and school pride. They identified the problem that many of their fellow students needed motivation to become more active and successful in school. These thoughtful and en- terprising students had the idea that tangible benefits such as fast food discounts, free health club mem- berships, and the opportunity to leave the school cam- pus during lunch would provide the needed motiva- tion. Their hard work and dedication resulted in the Reinventing Pride Program or RIP Program. This pro- gram has proved very successful. Our athletes continue to strive for success. D -Y was awarded the Sportsmanship Award from the At- lantic Coast League. Of particular note is the fact that no student -athlete in the class of 1996 was ejected from an interscholastic event in their entire four years of competition. The Girl's Track, Field Hockey and Girl's Cross Country teams displayed their winning ways as they clinched league titles and the Baseball, Boy's Tennis, Boy's Soccer and Golf Teams qualified for the state tournaments. Thanksgiving Day 1996 will forever be remembered for the first annual Chowder Bowl football game between Dennis -Yarmouth and Nauset High Schools. The Dolphins of Dennis - Yarmouth keep the bowl beating Nauset by a score of 34 - 0. This game will be remembered by all that at- tended for the sportsmanlike conduct of the partici- pants and fans. Both schools look forward to many years of a healthy sports rivalry. In all, the students, parents, faculty, staff, ad- ministration and others that comprise our school com- munity truly work in the best interest of the young people of Dennis and Yarmouth. The caring and dedi- cation exuded regularly contribute to an environment that promotes learning, success, and achievement of everyone. 213 Report of Charles T. Orloff, Principal Mattacheese Middle School The education reform movement that has been so evident in this state during the last five years is at a critical turning point How we define the issues and establish fiscal priorities for the children of Dennis and Yarmouth will determine if the movement toward stron- ger schools meets with success. During the last school year the number of stu- dents at Mattacheese Middle School has increased slightly to the current enrollment of 677 students in grades six, seven, and eight. The number of class- room teachers has actually decreased during that same period from twenty-nine to twenty-eight. This means that the average class size is now 25.4 at the eighth grade level, 24.2 at the seventh grade level, and 23.2 at the sixth grade level. In the last year we have witnessed the elimi- nation of the entire industrial arts and home econom- ics programs, the closing down of the school's tennis courts, the serious deterioration of the track, the down sizing of the athletic program, and the elimination of the community resource officer and two teacher aides. In addition, there has been little money allocated to address the glaring needs of under staffing in special education, replacing damaged windows, repairing and repainting lockers, and upgrading the alarm system to mention only a few. These issues, and the lack of any serious fiscal initiative to address the deficits in technology, the need for comprehensive programs for talented and gifted students, and the growing demand for student assistance programs, should raise con- cerns in every part of our community. Despite the down sizing of many critical parts of the school's program Mattacheese students con- tinue to excel academically. Last year, for the fourth time in a row, reading scores, as measured by the Massachusetts Educational Assessment Program, continued to rise. The fact that reading scores have risen over 120 points since the tests were first given in 1988 is clear indication of the high quality of teach- ing in Dennis -Yarmouth, and the dedication of our staff. As we approach the critical time of year when funding for the schools is appropriated, we ask that every ciffzen of this town support the quality of edu- cation that we have come to expect in this district. We ask for your commitment to appropriate class size, to restoring our athletic program, funding basic curricu- lum needs, and upgrading the computer program. Here at Mattacheese we will continue to do the very best job that we can to serve the children of this town. We sincerely thank Dr. Michael McCaffrey, Su- perintendent of Schools, and the entire Dennis- Yannouth Regional School District Committee for their continued support. Report of Patricia A. Fitzsimmons, Principal Nathaniel H. Wixon Middle School The 1996-97 school year began in September with seven hundred fifty-five students in grades four through eight, fifty three full-time professional staff members, three administrators, and a supportive and competent secretarial, custodial and cafeteria staff. Joining our special needs staff at the eighth grade level was Mrs. Mary Lou Dunbar. In the spring of 1996 the Dennis Building Needs Committee, created in response to parental concerns regarding the use of space and possible overcrowd- ing in the two Dennis schools, as well as the feasibil- ity of physically housing the fourth and fifth grades in the Middle School, presented their findings to the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School Committee and the Town. This report stated that due to stabilizing enroll- ments in the town and the present efficient use of space, a new school building program would not have to be considered. In conjunction with this committee, a town -wide information gathering meeting was held at the school to ascertain the concerns and recom- mendations. of the townspeople. As a result of this meeting and the work of the Dennis Building Needs Committee, it was determined that continued positive communication between parents and staff of both schools would be an appropriate and effective rem- edy at this time. The Wixon Middle School Council consisting of staff members, parents and community members con- tinues to study the changes that will be necessary to implement the Curriculum Frameworks and Time and Learning mandates of the Educational Reform Act which will take effect in September of 1997. This year has seen a welcomed increase in parental involvement in the Wixon Middle School, in the Parent Council, in the newly formed Athletic Boosters Club, and in day to day interaction with administrators and teachers. As a result of the abstemious budget funding for the 1996-97 school year, the most noticeable losses were I ) a teacher at grade levels 4, 6, 7 & 8 resulting 214 in increased class sizes; 2) the termination of the In- dustrial Arts Program; 3) the elimination of the House- hold Arts Program; 4) the reduction by one-third of the Physical Education Program for every student; 5) the substitution of a fee-based after-school program to replace intramurals and activities; 6) the institution of an equipment fee for each participant in our re- duced interscholastic athletic programs; and 7) the cutback of one daily bus resulting in no bus service for any child who lives within a mile and one half of school. Positive innovations at the Wixon Middle School continue to be piloted and implemented, including an emphasis on achievement of the highest potential for all members of the Wixon Community, recognition of positive demeanor of students both in school and in the community, a flexible block scheduling model for students in grades six through eight, as well as an extraordinary commitment to a program which navi- gates students to accept personal responsibility for their actions. The Wixon Middle School Community continues its commitment to the Town of Dennis to offer the high- est quality education to our students as we prepare them for the future. Report of Randall W. Wallin M. Ed., Principal Marguerite E. Small Elementary School Again, it is a privilege to submit this Annual Re- port of the Marguerite E. Small Elementary School. We are in the third year of the Educational Reform Bill, which continues to challenge the professional staff to meet its demands. Educational Reform clearly fo- cuses on the community as a whole to work collec- tively, as partners, in educating the children of Yarmouth. Through this collective effort, we will find success in educating our Yarmouth students. During the 1995-96 school year, our enrollment reached 393 students. The individual breakdown was as follows: Kindergarten 65; Grade one 80; Grade two 59; Grade three 64; Grade four 69; Grade five 56. I would like to congratulate the professional teaching staff for their dedication in educating the chil- dren in their charge. Their efforts do not go unnoticed and many times extend beyond expectations. This year the grade four and five report card was revised to better reflect the changes in the curriculum and in- volve both the students and parents in setting educa- tional semester goals. I am happy to report parents have become enthusiastically involved in helping their child set these goals. This marked the fourth year that the teachers have held parent curriculum nights. I cannot impress how important it is for the parents to attend their child's curriculum night. This is a key fac- tor in learning first hand what your child will be expe- riencing in their individual classrooms. The Dennis - Yarmouth Regional School District, through the office of the Director of Instruction and the Curriculum Lead Teachers continues to develop its curriculum to align with the Commonwealth's Curriculum Frameworks. We have fully implemented the Everyday Math pro- gram Kindergarten (K) through grade five. We have also incorporated additional science units by way of "hands-on kits" in K through grade five. The members of the School Improvement Coun- cil, as well as the entire staff, continue to respond to the Needs Survey of 1995 and plan to focus on the theme of respect for the upcoming school year. This plan was presented to the school committee for their approval in the spring and we are eager to implement it. A copy of this plan is available here at the school, and in your local public library, as well as in the D -Y Administration Office. I would like thank our ever active Parents Advi- sory Council (PAC) for the tireless volunteer hours. Through our PAC we have offered an extensive After School Program offering children to enroll in varied activities from chess to outside sports. PAC has also contracted for special assembly programs to further enrich our students' educational experience. In addi- tion, the secretaries, aides, cafeteria personnel and custodial workers are to be commended for their "be- hind the scenes" dedication and commitment to the smooth building operation. We say good-bye to Sumner (Skip) Campell, our home to school counselor. Skip retired after many years of service to the children of Dennis and Yarmouth; as a result of fiscal cut backs. I would like to wish Skip a much deserved, long and happy retire- ment. We will miss the many ways that you have brought smiles to the children, parents and staff of our school. I would like to thank the Police Chief Carnes and the efforts of Officer Walter (Rob) Warren for recog- nizing the need for the continued involvement and 215 support in the educational process of the children. The Adopt -A-School Program has been extremely suc- cessful and the safety programs play a very impor- tant part in the children's lives. Report of Nancy C. Melia, Principal John Simpkins School 1996 was a year characterized by marked con- trasts between the opening and closing days. As the financial picture for the D -Y School System unfolded over the late spring months, it became clear that the Simpkins School would be required to make signifi- cant cuts in the operating budget between the first half of 1996 and the last. Between June and September, the fifth grade class was transformed from 5 sections to 3; the health aide and the library aide positions were abolished; secretarial and computer aide positions were cut from full-time to part-time and both service and supply ac- counts suffered some losses. The summer of '96 rep- resented a traumatic period for all D -Y schools, but the JSE staff, students and parents did their best to cope with the changing circumstances. The school continues to benefit from a cadre of community volunteers who are generous with their time and talents. Both the Yarmouth Fire Department and the Police Department offer important prevention programs and important role models for our students. The PTO, under the capable leadership of Linda Tucker and Kerri Lotti, sponsored numerous fund rais- ers to support field trips, cultural enrichment programs and special purchases. School Council members, in- cluding Parent Representatives Karen Games, Elena Ghioto and Mary Jo Govoni, Teacher Representatives Pamela Hollingsworth and Mara Van Duizend, and Community Representative Rockwell Ludden con- ferred over many months to devise a school improve- ment plan that focused on students. As 1996 draws to a conclusion, it is important to recognize employees who have retired or moved on to new challenges. I would like to extend to Gloria Krawczynski, Cafeteria Manager, Peter Miller, Direc- tor of the DY Strings Program, Margot Robert, Grade 5 Teacher, Louisa MacPherson, Grade 3 Teacher, Vicki Hart, SPED Aide and Marleigh Jacques, ESLTeacher our fondest wishes for their future good health and happiness. Report of Jeanne M. Carrick, Principal Laurence C. MacArthur Elementary School The Laurence C. MacArthur Elementary School opened its doors in September with a student popu- lation of 248. The enrollment figure is about twenty less than anticipated, and we lost one kindergarten section due to the lower number. We provide before and after school daycare and a kindergarten care pro- gram for the many families who need to use these services. Also, there are an additional fifteen students enrolled in our early childhood program, which is funded by a federal grant. Through this grant, an age- appropriate play structure was constructed in our play area. We hope to increase the opportunities for all our students by eventually adding more pieces to the existing ones and replacing those out-of-date pieces. Our School Improvement Plan was completed and submitted to the school committee in July. Our goals focus on providing a safe and challenging envi- ronment for our students, along with utilizing volun- teers from the community to provide additional ser- vices and programs for both students and staff. We have also received grants from the Yarmouth Cultural Council and other organizations that allow our stu- dents to benefit from the programs that additional funds provide. The MacArthur school continues to implement curriculum initiatives and educational programs. The high degree of professional development and enthu- siasm of our staff ensure the achievement of our stu- dents. Two dedicated staff members have chosen to retire after many years of service to the school dis- trict. Mr. Henry St. Cyr and Mrs. Doris Kelley have contributed greatly to the education of many Yarmouth students. We wish them good health and a well de- served retirement. Our school program benefits and improves due to the support of our town residents, district staff, and many community efforts. In particular, our relationship with both the police and fire departments has been a positive one. The fire education program, under the direction of Lt. Raiskio, and our police liaison officer, Patrolman Scichilone, provide an important service to our entire student body. The implementation of the "Cop Cards" program initiated by Police Chief Carnes has created a positive link between the police depart- ment and the schools. Our Education Reform Act Council and PTO continue to support our goals by volunteering their time and donating funds to the MacArthur school. We are grateful to our entire com- munity for the support our school receives. 216 Report of Sharon L. Hartley, Principal Station Avenue Elementary School The Station Avenue Elementary School's first full year of operation was distinguished by growth - the academic and interpersonal growth of the school com- munity as well as the physical increase in our student population. This first year also tested our strength as we persevered through the final stages of the con- struction process. On October 28, 1996, the Station Avenue School (SAE) Building Committee completed its task by accepting the facility on behalf of the town of Yarmouth. We extend our gratitude to the mem- bers of the Building Committee, the Dennis -Yarmouth School Committee, Dr. Michael McCaffrey, and Mr. Donald Johnson for their support and assistance. This year was also marked by budget constraints which brought about changes in personnel, a change in the computer instruction, a reduction in bus service for our students and a reduction in the school nurse's assignment to half time. Our enrollment has steadily increased since the school opened in September, 1995. We ended the '95-96 school year with 426 students and reopened in September, 1996 with 455 students. Our students and staff now occupy every classroom and office space. We are fortunate to have an active School Coun- cil that includes the following members: parent repre- sentatives Amy Almonte, Karen Butler, Sandra Femino, and Brenda Martinez (co-chair); teacher rep- resentatives Pam Hill, Kathy Kenyon, and Paul Leofanti; and community representative, Francis Worrell. The SAE School Council meets regularly with me to provide advice and guidance regarding school programs and policy and to develop a school improve- ment plan. Our school handbook states, "It is our sincerest goal to create a community of learners - readers and writers, mathematicians, artists, musicians, lovers of science and world language, children who share a love for learning." We pursue this vision through aca- demic, athletic and social programs and opportuni- ties for our students. The core educational program continues to fea- ture challenging opportunities for our Kindergarten through Grade 5 students. All students explore and gain skills in Communicative Arts, Mathematics, So- cial Studies, Science as well as Art, Music, Physical Education, Computer Science and Library Skills. Stu- dents in grades 4 and 5 participate in Health Educa- tion classes once each week and have the opportu- nity to enroll in the instrumental music program. Our Music Department also offers an optional Choral Mu- sic program for fifth graders. This year SAE students participated in the Jump For Heart Program, spon- sored by the Heart Fund; a Math Fair, highlighting the new Everyday Math Curriculum; the LACE Poetry Celebration; the Odyssey of the Mind Program, send- ing four teams to the local competition; an outdoor Flag Day Program and field days for all students. Our students continue to benefit from our tal- ented and dedicated faculty. Staff members who are new to the district include: Nancy Potter, kindergar- ten teacher; Charlene Foley, Special Education Teacher; and Denise Stanley, Special Education Aide. Joining our staff this year from other schools within the district are Betsy Pontius, First Grade Teacher; Ellen Sheret, Instructional Aide; Marilyn Martin, School Nurse, shared with M.E. Small School; and Kathy Malkasian, Physical Education Teacher. We are grateful to the members of the police and fire departments for their strong support and en- thusiasm for working with our students. Representa- tives from these departments have provided excel- lent safety programs for our staff and students regard- ing a variety of pertinent topics including bus and bi- cycle safety, fire prevention, emergency and evacua- tion drills. Officer Lou Nickinello, assigned to our school through the Police Department's Youth Ser- vices Unit, has provided consistent support and con- cern for Station Avenue School students. The SAE School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) continues to provide active, positive support for Station Avenue School through programs such as the After School Activity Program, a Holiday Fair and Family Breakfast, Spring Flea Market, Book Fair and the Landscaping Project. The PTO turns these projects into dividends for our students in the form of support for field trips, cultural arts programs and classroom activities. We extend our sincere appreciation for their contributions to PTO members and their officers: Ellen Sheret, President; Mary Ellen Carter and Ginette Morrissey Co -Vice Presidents; Carol King, Treasurer; and Secretary, Kim Clark. Our students also benefit on a daily basis from the tremendous work of our volunteers. Ellen Barber coordinates the Volunteers in the Public Schools (VIPS) program in which senior volunteers are teamed with teachers to provide assistance through direct work 217 with students as well as support for projects and spe- cial events. The Education Engineers Program, orga- nized by teacher Mary Nelson, encourages D -Y High School students to assist our youngsters in a variety of ways including teaching World Languages, tutor- ing individual and small groups of students, and serv- ing as mentors and coaches. We submit this report with great pride in the ac- complishments of our students and with appreciation for the ongoing support and good will of our school community. Report of Kevin F. Depin, Principal Ezra H. Baker School It is an honor to present this report of the Ezra H. Baker School for the first time as its principal. The Baker School employs 78 full and part time employ- ees who work in different capacities but share the same goal of providing children in the Town of Dennis with the very best educational opportunities. We are a large school with seven sections at each grade level, Kindergarten through Grade Three, a grant funded, integrated pre-school, and a self supporting extended daycare program. During the past year, there have been monu- mental changes at the Baker School. In February, Principal Frances Meyer retired. In her leadership roles at the Baker School, Mrs. Meyer was known for her support and encouragement of teachers in their pro- fessional growth. She was in every sense of the word an instructional leader. Three long time staff mem- bers, Sumner Campbell, Denise Carloni, and Thomas Griffin, also left Baker in 1996. We recognize the con- tributions each of these fine professionals has made to countless Dennis children and wish them health and happiness in all of their future endeavors. At the Baker School, and indeed throughout the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, we con- tinue to refine and improve our curriculum. This year we are incorporating science units based upon the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks for Science and Technology, two at each grade level. We have also fully implemented a very rigorous math curricu- lum that not only demands basic knowledge but en- courages mathematical thinking. We are currently pi- loting a health education program in two classrooms at each grade level. Teachers continue to study and refine their approach to reading instruction, which is best described as a holistic, literature based method that instructs children to use phonics, context, gram- mar, and picture clues to help them unlock the mean- ing of print. The related arts, physical education, mu- sic, library, and art, strive to connect their domains to more traditional areas of study. Each student at the Baker School has frequent access to computers and other technologies to enhance his or her learning. Fi- nally, we have endeavored this year to improve our progress reporting procedures by redesigning our report card. Recognizing that children learn from a variety of experiences, we reinstituted, with the support of our parent council, an after school activities program which allows children to pursue other areas of interest out- side of traditional school time. In May, we held a week long celebration of the accomplishments of all of our students in reading, writing, math, science, and the arts. Highlights of the week included a school wide talent show, a family reading night, and a visit by local celebrity Johnny Kelley. Students also benefit from the partnerships between the school and the Dennis Police Department, Fire Department, Recreation De- partment, Town Libraries, Recycling Commission, and Historical Society. We at the Ezra H. Baker School continue with our mission to prepare today's children for tomorrow's challenges. On behalf of the over 600 students, Pre Kindergarten through Grade Three, the faculty and the staff of the Ezra H. Baker School, I thank the citizens of the Town of Dennis for their continued support. 218 Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District Enrollment Chart K-12 Enrollments as of 10/1/96 W U {(pp fp cNp O N f�f t!1 N F v N - eyp O, d er N N N -.
