The Board of Selectmen is very pleased with the work of our town counsel who, in 2005 with our and the administration's full support, was able to have all 35 land damage cases dismissed in the Town's favor. The specter of these cases hung over us for ten years and we are pleased that we now can move on with a clean slate for land acquisition. Our relations with our two neighboring towns have generally been positive. We have had issues with Barnstable Municipal Airport and our goal of hav- ing a full voting member on the Airport Commis- sion. We believe that the airport is a regional facility and, as we in Yarmouth are the most affected Town, other than Barnstable, we believe we should have one vote on this seven member board. Our request is not unusual as the Town of Barnstable has a member on the Steamship Authority. Thru the ef- forts of our non-voting appointee to the commis- sion, Robert Howard, we have developed a good working relationship with the Airport Commission and with the Town Counsel. We are hopeful that in the coming year we will receive a full voting posi- tion on the Airport Commission. We have been working with the Town of Barnstable on water qual- ity issues, wastewater issues and shared public safety concerns. We look forward to continuing to work with our neighbors to the west on these and other matters of mutual interest. The Town of Den- nis continues to be our partner in issues involving Bass River, the Septage Plant and numerous envi- ronmental concerns. We continue to discuss the allocation of State Aid to Schools. This item has recently become a difficult topic with the State Law offering two alternatives, the staying with the cur- rent district formula or defaulting to the State For- mula. There is a significant difference between how funding is allocated and currently the State formula is to the benefit of the Town of Yarmouth as op- posed to the District Formula which we have used in the years past. There will be a required vote at our upcoming Annual Town Meeting on this issue. The Yarmouth Board of Selectmen is working hard to develop information for you as voters to deter- mine how we will proceed with our partnership in the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. This past year the Board of Selectmen set very ambitious goals for itself using a new goal setting format. We have developed goals which do not end with one year but continue on and provide us with an outline to report progress to you on improve- ments to our community. We are meeting regularly with our committees to make sure they are focused on the goals we have set, so together we can make changes to improve the Town of Yarmouth. would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. William- Marasco for his service on the Board of Selectmen. Bill looked at the big picture and was an asset on the Board of Selectmen keeping us fo- - cused on where we are going and not dwell on where we have been. I also want to welcome Bud Groskopf as the newest member of the Board of Selectmen. Bud comes with a wealth of new ideas and new ways of looking at old problems. Bud is very entre- preneurial in his thinking and we are looking at things in different ways as a result of his important input into problems. On behalf of the Board of Selectmen I want to congratulate. Karl vonHone and Amy vonHone for the recent town -wide and state-wide awards they have received for the work they have completed on rabies education. Karl and Amy were nominated by the Town for the Yarmouth Area Chamber of Com- merce Public Service Award which they were pre- sented at the Chamber's Annual Meeting in Octo- ber of 2005. The Board of Selectmen was also no- tified in December that the Massachusetts Munici- pal Association was award the Pickering Municipal Innovation Award to Karl vonHone and Amy vonHone for their work on rabies education. It was with great pleasure and pride that I stood with them at the annual meeting of the MMA in Boston in early January of 2006 when they received their awards. This award is another example of the outstanding men and women we have working for all of us in town government. In that same category, I want to honor Mr. Tom Broidrickwho stepped down in 2005 as Yarmouth's representative to the Cape Cod Com- mission. Tom was the longest serving member on the Cape Cod Commission and his wealth of knowl- edge and analysis of issues brought before the Cape Cod Commission will be greatly missed. Tom is re- ducing his activity level but is still a valuable resource for all of us to draw upon in the coming years. In 2006, the Board of Selectmen is facing many important issues. We will be addressing the long term Library needs in the town by looking beyond the short term solution of repairs to the South Yarmouth Library and studying, along with the Li- brary Board, the future of library services in Yarmouth. We have some exciting possibilities for expanding library service in Fiscal 2007. One of our biggest challenges this coming year will be resolv- ing issues concerning the Dennis Yarmouth School assessments. As stated above we are going to work diligently to bring to the voters at the Annual Town Meeting in 2006 firm options for you to consider to keep the Dennis -Yarmouth School District together and provide the highest quality education to our stu- dents. We will also continue our studies of waste- water needs within the Town including the estuary study to maintain a high water quality in one of our most valuable assets, our rivers, the bay and the sound. As important, are the new directions we are taking as a result of the Branding Study and the Blue Stone Group Study which are offering us op- portunities to change and improve Route 28 and surrounding areas. The Village concept for business and residential areas along Route 28 is an exciting opportunity that we have set as one of our top pri- orities for 2006 and beyond. In closing, I would like to thank all of the em- ployees of the Town for their continued dedication and hard work for us and the citizens of the Town of Yarmouth. I want to especially thank Town Admin- istrator Bob Lawton and Assistant Town Adminis- trator Peter Johnson -Staub for their dedication to the high standards of public service and for keep- ing our community in the lead for innovative ideas and service. I also want to recognize the special assistance we receive from Judy Daigneault, Pam Barnes and Grace Parisi who keep our liquor licens- ing, appointments and correspondence timely and accurate. The Board of Selectmen welcomes your ideas as we move forward. We are going to provide op- portunities for you to give us input into the changes we are contemplating in the upcoming years. We urge you to attend public meetings and especially fill out talent bank forms so you can be part of the solution and part of the positive changes we hope to be able to make in the coming year.

The mem- bers are appointed by the Town Moderator and Chairs of the Finance Committee and Selectmen. The committee meets regularly throughout the year with the Town Administrator to review and to pro- vide advice and oversight on the town's finances. The committee meets much more frequently dur- ing the months of January and February to review the budgets of all town departments for the upcom- ing fiscal year and to make recommendations on the annual town meeting warrant articles. Our mem- bers come from the pool of interested citizens who have filled out a town talent bank form expressing an interest in serving on the Finance Committee. During the budget review period, December through February; the Finance committee usually meets twice a week to review, line by line, the bud- get of each town department. This year each de- partment submitted two budgets, one under the proposition 21 /2 limit, as specified by the Town Ad- ministrator and one that details requests to be in- cluded in a possible override to Proposition 2 1/2, as requested by the Selectmen. Most of the over- ride requests from town departments seek to re- store cuts to their budgets that took place in FY2006. Since wages and expenses have risen each year since 2005, the town departments are struggling to provide level services in the face of rising costs. In some cases, this has meant reducing the time ser- vices are available in some town departments when staff shortages occur. This trend is expected to con- tinue when budgets increase only to fund incremen- tal wage increases and expense requests remain flat from year to year. Revenues from sources other than property taxes are expected to remain flat or decrease in the coming years. One factor driving this is the trend for motels to convert to condos, rather than mod- ernize and upgrade, thereby reducing rooms tax revenue. Excise tax on personal property, mainly autos, can vary depending upon the economy in 13 general while tourism based revenues such as beach and golf fees are also affected by the economy and weather. The Finance Committee supports the Town Administration's preference for conservatively estimating these revenues. Although spearheaded by the Selectmen, the Finance Committee has been involved in the dis- cussions about using the regional formula or the State's Chapter 70 formula for calculating Yarmouth's share of the D -Y Regional School District's FY07 budget. Consultants hired by the town to advise us in the matter, have indicated that Yarmouth is contributing as much as $900,000 more in state revenue to the DYRSD than is recognized by the district formula. This is sure to be an impor- tant area of concern that all voters should be aware of. Finally, I would like to thank all the town depart- ment heads who meet with the Finance Committee during budget reviews, Town Administrator Bob Lawton and Assistant Town Administrator Peter Johnson -Staub and their department for their dedi- cation to this committee and their steady guidance to the town of Yarmouth. We are truly fortunate to have such a competent administrative team serv- ing the people of Yarmouth. We urge all residents to take part in our local government by serving on boards and committees, participating in town meet- ing and letting your voice be heard. We look for- ward to seeing you at Town Meeting. Sincerely, William Bastian, Chair Carol Serafino, Vice Chair Dana Soderberg, Clerk Betty Jane Burkhardt John Henderson Roy Morton Peter Slovak Ted Weissberger Judie Hunter CAPITAL BUDGET COMMITTEE The Capital Budget Committee is composed of seven volunteer members appointed by the Finance Committee. Staff support is provided by the Assis- tant Town Administrator - Peter Johnson -Staub. The Capital Budget Committee is charged with review- ing all capital funding requests submitted by Town Departments. Recommendations for the coming Fiscal Year are presented to the Finance Commit- tee, Town Administrator and Board of Selectmen. Prior to the Committee's review, the division and department heads meet as a group to prioritize capi- tal request to be funded from general fund avail- able funds (Free Cash) and included in Article 6 of the Annual Town Meeting. The Committee reviews this staff recommendation as well as all borrowing requests and other items included in the compre- hensive five-year capital improvement plan. The Capital Budget Committee meets 2 to 3 times per month beginning in late summer through March in preparation for Annual Town Meeting. Two summary tables from the capital improvement plan are repro- duced for this annual report. The Committee's full report includes a detailed listing of all requests for the five year plan and is available at the Town Administrator's Office. As was true in 2004, the Committee was faced with difficult choices as to which capital requests would be funded and which would not. For the sec- ond consecutive year, funds available for pay-as- you-go capital items were reduced (FY2004 - $1.175 Million, FY2005 - $1.1 Million, FY2006 - $1.0 Mil- lion.) Most of these funds are directed toward what are considered "must fund" priorities such as As- sessor' Revaluation & Re -measure, Road & Side- walk repairs, and Police vehicles. Dredging has been funded at one-half the requested amount following two years without any funding. Definition of Capital Project The Committee continues to apply two thresh- olds for capital budget requests: a useful life of at least five years, and a cost of at least $10,000. With the exception of a few minor items, requests which do not meet these two thresholds are not consid- ered for Article 6 funding. The Committee also rec- ommended changes to the current Article 6 format. 14 Structures The Town recognizes the need to maintain its buildings and school facilities. Line items for structure's maintenance are now included in Article 6. Neglect or delay of preventive maintenance and upgrade can result in exponentially increased costs and be far more disruptive if not undertaken on a timely basis. Additionally, the Committee has be- gun reviewing the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District facility plans and capital improve- ment needs. The School District has enthusiasti- cally participated in this process by developing a Capital Projects Committee within the School Com- mittee. Vehicle Replacement The Town's inventory of vehicles, and miscella- neous motorized and non -motorized equipment is significant and therefore worthy of careful scrutiny. The number and types of vehicles requested annu- ally exceeds one million dollars which is typically reduced by 45%-65% due to budget constraints. The committee suggests evaluating means to im- prove utilization and to consolidate and reduce the inventory by approximately 10%. Enterprise and Reserve Funds It is suggested that the Town review these ac- counts and determine ways and means of capping the surplus at 5%-10% of the individual operating budgets. Capital Improvement and Facility Plan It is suggested that in the future the 5 -year hori- zon for capital and facility planning be expanded to 10 years due to what the committee sees as steadily increasing costs and project timetables.

Our employees in the Highway, Build- ings and Grounds, Water Department, Police and Fire deserve a great deal of credit and thanks for keeping the Town open and operating during this difficult time. We also thank the private contractors who stayed with us during these difficult storms. The work of our employees, I believe, saved lives and allowed us to successfully cope with the crip- pling storms. In the late summer and fall of 2005 the Town emergency management personnel were also keep- ing an eye on the many and strong hurricanes which were active off the east coast of the United States. Cape Cod was fortunate again this year and no major storms hit us. We did, however, spend time updating our disaster plans for hurricanes and other natural disasters to protect the people of Yarmouth. Financially, we were able to weather the many ups and downs of 2005. The snow and ice deficit near the end of the Fiscal year was over $300,000. We received some help from the Federal govern- ment and no financial assistance from the State. We internally transferred existing funds and used the Finance Committee reserves to balance all ac- counts to avoid a deficit going into FY 06. We also presented Town Meeting in April of 2005 with a bal- anced budget that reduced many town budgets. Starting in July of 2005 there were reductions in service levels which reflected the approved lower budget amounts. A number of very positive things occurred in 2005. The Community Preservation Act was adopted and we can now use the existing tax of 3% for historical preservation, affordable housing, recreation as well as open space protection. The Committee is appointed and operating. They pre- sented their first project, the acquisition of the land and building on New Hampshire Avenue next to the Town boat ramp, to the October Special Town Meet- ing and received a unanimous vote. This is a great start for the Committee. In 2005 all thirty five of the land damage cases against the Town were dismissed by Land Court in Boston. These cases involved land taken for Bay- 17 berry Hills Golf Course, Water Department purposes, and general open space. With unanimous support of the Board of Selectmen, Town Counsel John Creney worked for over the twelve years, to have all the cases settled in the Towns' favor with no addi- tional damages assessed to the Town. would also like to acknowledge Karl vonHone and Amy vonHone for the amount of time and ex- pertise together they used to develop the standard Cape wide for information and training in the ra- bies. They have gone to many other Towns and pre- sented the material to all of our Schools. As a result of their work we nominated Karl and Amy for the 2005 Yarmouth Area Chamber of Commerce Gov- ernment Service award. The Chamber awarded Karl and Amy the award at the annual dinner in October of 2005. We also nominated them for the Massa- chusetts Municipal Association Kenneth E. Pickard Municipal Innovation Award for 2005. We have re- ceived a notice that Karl and Amy also won this prestigious award for 2005.1 am pleased that both our local Chamber of Commerce and the state municipal association have recognized their hard work and contribution to the health and safety of Yarmouth and Cape Cod residents. I also want to welcome to our management team Jackie Adams our new Library Director. Jackie has extensive ex- perience in public libraries and also brings a busi- ness prospective to the job from her private sector work. Her expertise and insight into our library is- sues will move these discussions in a positive di- rection. Looking forward, the first thing I hope for is a quiet winter season It will be very difficult to deal with a second record snow season in a row. 1 be- lieve we will continue to see reductions in State Aid and the continuing cutting back of state services in towns. We hope, however, to see an increase in school funding. Publicly, the State Legislature has stated that education is priority for new aid. We will also continue to experience the pressure of attempt- ing to provide increased services with a high level of competence to our taxpayers. In 2006, we look to continue our marina project, to be funded with State grants, which will develop new jobs, revitalize a portion of Route 28, and allow better water ac- cess for our residents and guests. Yarmouth library improvements, a new Fire Station #3, and consoli- dation of DPW structures are priorities for 2006. The Community Preservation Act Committee will present their first series of recommendations to the 2006 Annual Town Meeting. This hard working commit- tee will have a significant positive impact on our Town for many years to come. In closing, I want to thank the department and division heads of the town for once again doing an outstanding job with the same or fewer resources in 2005. The Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth can be proud of all of the employees who work for them and with the high quality of service which is pro- vided. I want to thank the Assistant Town Adminis- trator Peter Johnson -Staub, Executive Assistant Judy Daigneault, Administrative Assistant Pamela Barnes, and part time Secretary Grace Parisi for their work and dedication to me and the Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth this past year. Without an excel- lent staff, the progress we have made would not be possible. I also want to thank the Board of Select- men for their support during this past year. Together we have faced many difficult issues but we have been successful because our relationship is a part- nership working for the best interest of the Town and its citizens. 18 Robert C.

We continue to be busy providing dog licenses, golf passes and numerous other services. We have had a significant increase in the number of passports processed, a service we have been providing since 1998. The Clerk's office had a quite year concerning elections and town meetings. There was a Special Town Meeting on January 11th, the Annual Town Meeting was held on April 12th, Annual Town Election, May 2nd, Special Town Meeting, October 5th, Special Town Election, October 26th. and the Old King's Highway Election on November 221d. The preparation and mailing of the Annual Census forms were once again done by an outside vendor, at dreasonable cost and a substantial savings. The prompt return of the census is encouraged as the results of the census affect many of the Town's concerns. The Clerk's office has computerized many of its functions. This enables us to serve our customers more quickly and efficiently.

Board of Selectmen Town of Yarmouth Aubrey Groskopf James Saben Suzanne McAuliffe Jerome Sullivan Daniel Horgan 78 BOARD OF APPEALS To the Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth: The Board of Appeals herewith submits its an- nual report for the calendar year 2005. • The Board of Appeals operates under the Yarmouth Zoning Bylaw as well as the Massachu- setts General Laws Chapters 40A and 40B (a copy of the Zoning Bylaw is now available online at the Town's web site, www.yarmouth.ma.us). The re- sponsibilities of the Board of Appeals are to hear and decide petitions for Special Permits, Variances from the terms of the Bylaw, and Appeals from the decision of the Building Inspector, as well as appli- cations for Comprehensive Permits for affordable housing developments. The Board consists of five regular members (appointed for staggered five year terms), plus alternate members (appointed for one year terms), all of whom are volunteers appointed by the Selectmen. The Board is scheduled to meet on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month, at 7:00 p.m. The public is always welcome to at- tend the hearings. -The Board's meetings are broad- cast live on Channel 18, the Public Access Televi- sion Station, and re -broadcast periodically through- out the week. The Zoning Administrators are an arm of the Board of Appeals and are appointed by the Board of Appeals subject to confirmation by the Select- men. The Zoning Administrators carry out the same functions as the Board of Appeals, operating under the same laws and procedures, but generally handle the less controversial or less complex cases. The Board's Zoning Administrators are currently Mr. John Richards and Mr. Joseph Sarnosky. During the year 2005 the Board of Appeals heard a total of 69 petitions. Of these, 65 were granted (in whole or in part) while 4 were denied. During the year progress was made on three af- fordable housing developments. The Villages at Camp Street, now know as Mill Pond Estates, be- gan construction on its 129 units. A four dwelling development on Union Street in Yarmouth Port re- ceived a Comprehensive Permit, and construction has commenced. Four rental units were approved in connection with a commercial property on Com- mercial Street, in South Yarmouth. However, a larger proposed rental unit development on Corporation and Enterprise Road, West Yarmouth, was denied a Comprehensive Permit. That decision has been appealed and remains pending before the State Housing Appeals Committee. Last year, the Town Meeting passed a revised Accessory Apartment bylaw, allowing for affordable as well as family related apartments. To date, two permits for affordable housing apartments have been sought and issued, and one has been denied. There were no changes in the membership of the board this year. I wish to thank our Regular and Alternate mem- bers, and our Secretary Rhonda LaFrance, for their dedicated and conscientious service to the Town throughout the year. David S. Reid, Chairman Regular Members: David S. Reid, Chairman John Richards Joseph Sarnosky Diane Moudouris Sean Igoe Alternate Members: Richard Neitz Debra Martin Thomas Roche Douglas Campbell Forrest White Steven DeYoung Rhonda LaFrance, Secretary 79 DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT This past year, the Department of Community Development continued their efforts in comprehen- sive planning, economic development and hous- ing. Utilizing a grant from the Cape Cod Commis- sion, the Department contracted with the Bluestone Planning Group and began holding public meetings to gather input from the general public, volunteer boards and committees, and local businesses. Based on this information and many site visits, the Town was presented with draft guidelines that con- tained zoning related recommendations for the de- velopment of village or activity centers to be located along Route 28. These centers would provide resi- dents and visitors with a sense of place and would encourage pedestrian activity. To encourage rede- velopment in these areas, incentives such as in- creased height or density would be offered. Adopted at the January 2005 Special Town Meeting, the Community Preservation Act utilizes a local assessment and a state match (currently 100%) to fund qualified projects in the areas of His- toric Preservation, Open Space, Affordable Hous- ing and Recreation. The Community Preservation Committee was formed to solicit proposals and make recommendations to Town Meeting for the allocation of funds. The Committee made their first recommendation at the October 2005 Special Town Meeting to fund the acquisition of property adja- cent to Englewood Beach. Working with the Board of Selectmen Appoint- ments Chairperson, the committee structure within the Community -Development Department was re -- organized and two new committees developed. In October 2005, the Community and Economic De- velopment Committee (CEDC) and the Design Re- view Committee were created. The Department continued to work on a variety of affordable housing issues including updating the Town's inventory, monitoring resale of affordable homes, working with parties interested in develop- ing affordable housing in Town, and assisting Yarmouth residents acquire affordable housing. Staff also provided support to the Affordable Housing Committee and worked to secure grant funds to help further affordable housing planning and devel- opment efforts. Staff continued to administer the Town's Com- munity Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, distributing more than $140,000 in grants. Grants were used to provide loans for septic rehabilitation, funding for the accessory apartment program, fund- ing for meals on wheels, and the acquisition of af- fordable rental housing. CDBG funding must be spent on low- and moderate -income households or persons. Staff continued to provide support to the Plan- ning Board, preparing for its business meetings, workshops, and public hearings. Applications were received and processed for Approval Not Required (ANR) plans, preliminary subdivision plans, and de- finitive subdivision plans. Staff also worked with the Planning Board in the preparation of zoning articles for the Annual and Special Town Meetings. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the staff of the Department of Community Development for their work throughout the year. I would also like to thank all of the volunteers who continue to de- vote their time and energies to the Town. Their com- mitment to the Town is remarkable, and their work much appreciated. Respectfully submitted, Karen M. Greene, Director Terry Sylvia, Town Planner Mary Waygan, Administrative Assistant PLANNING BOARD The Planning Board has had another busy and _____ -productive year. The Officers of the Board were Col- leen Kramer, Chairman; Brad Goodwin, Vice -Chair- man, and; Bryant Palmer, Clerk. In October, mem- ber Marion Broidrick left the Board after many years of service. New member Thomas Roche was ap- pointed by the Selectmen to fill the vacancy. The Board held 27 business meetings, 16 work- shops, and 5 public hearings in 2005. The Board acted on 11 Approval Not Required (ANR) plans, 2 preliminary subdivision plans, and 2 definitive sub- division plans. 55 new lots were created. The Plan- ning Board presented 5 zoning articles at Special Town Meeting in January 2005, 3 articles at the Annual Town Meeting in April, 2005, and 1 article at Special Town Meeting in October 2005. Board members also attended various training 80 sessions and met with other town boards and com- mittees, as well as neighborhood organizations, on items of mutual interest and concern. Planning Board members served on other town committees and worked for other community groups as well: Bryant Palmer served as the Planning Board repre- sentative on the Affordable Housing Committee and served on the Yarmouth Housing Authority; Colleen Kramer served on the Medical Overlay District Com- mittee; Brad Goodwin served on the Capital Bud- get Committee, the Marina Committee, and the Waste Water Committee; former member Marion Broidrick served on the Library Board and with the Yarmouth Community Cultural Center; Tracy Post served as the Board's representative on the Com- munity and. Economic Development Committee (CEDC). Mr. Goodwin and Mr. Tolley also served as members of a CEDC ad hoc sub -committee. The Board thanks staff for their assistance and looks forward to another busy year. Respectfully submitted, Colleen Kramer, Chairman Steven DeYoung Brad Goodwin Bryant Palmer Tracy Post Thomas Roche - Erik Tolley Former member: Marion Broidrick Staff: Terry Sylvia, Town Planner AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMMITTEE The Yarmouth Affordable Housing Committee is responsible for the oversight and coordination of initiatives and projects that will increase the avail- ability of and access to affordable housing in Yarmouth. To this end, the Committee continues to work closely with the Planning Board, the Yarmouth Housing Authority, and various non -profits such as Habitat for Humanity, Our First Home and Yarmouth Housing Opportunities, Inc. (YHO). The Affordable Housing Committee met in regu- lar session 19 times in 2005 and for 1 workshop session. In 2005, the Affordable Housing Commit - 81 tee used their meeting time to review potential 40B projects, meeting with project proponents each time and to discuss housing needs in .Yarmouth. The Committee also worked with a steering committee to create the Community and Economic Develop- ment Committee (CEDC) and look forward to work- ing with its members. In addition to our regular meetings, the Afford- able Housing Committee worked with the Bluestone Planning Group to develop guidelines for the de- velopment of affordable mixed income housing on Route 28. The committee also met with the Plan- ning Board to include affordability requirements to any new developments resulting from the Bluestone recommendations for the Route 28 village centers. The Committee members attended a number of off-site training seminars, including a workshop on 40B sponsored by the County and the Citizen Planner Training Collaborative, a seminar by the state ethics commission and housing workshops sponsored by the Community Preservation Coali- tion. This past year, the Affordable Housing Commit- tee worked with the staff from the Department of Community Development, to promote the afford- able accessory apartment bylaw. To date, the Board of Appeals has approved four accessory dwellings. We continued to research and investigate the possibility of building affordable housing off Baker's Path in South Yarmouth. We have met with a num- ber of neighbors to discuss their concerns and hope to continue to focus on this area and to continue working with the neighbors. The Committee worked with the Historic Com- mission and Land Bank forthe successful adop- tion of the Community Preservation Act (CPA) and is excited to work with the newly formed commit- tee to develop and redevelop housing opportuni- ties for Yarmouth residents I would like to thank the members of this com- mittee for their tireless efforts. Promoting affordable housing is a difficult task and the obstacles are so complex that it is inspiring to serve on a committee with an energetic and motivated group. We are al- ways looking for a few new members! I would also like to take this opportunity to wel- come the following new members Alan Aarons, Barbara Beeler, Deborah Bellows, Kieran Healy, and Christopher Schultz and recognize the service of committee members Morie Burke, Elizabeth Mon- roe, and Paul Vasallo, who resigned this year. They will be missed. I would also like to recognize Jeanne Bullock for her participation in the County's HOME Consortium. Respectfully Submitted, James R Hoben, Chairman Gloria Smith, Vice Chairman Alan Aarons Barbara Beeler Deborah Bellows Kieran Healy Bryant Palmer Christopher Schultz Kathy Valenti Staff : Karen M.Greene, Director of Community Development Mary Waygan, Administrative Assistant COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE Established by the Board of Selectmen in Sep- tember 2005, the Community and Economic De- velopment Committee (CEDC) is charged with work- ing "to improve the quality and attractiveness of new and existing development so as to enhance, sus- tain and broaden the economic base of the com- munity, provide employment opportunities, and fos- ter a deeper sense of community among all resi- dents and businesses by encouraging the exchange of ideas on important community and quality of life issues". The CEDC is also charged with working to coordinate community and economic development plans and their implementation with various town boards as well as reviewing plans for consistency with the Local Comprehensive Plan (LCP). While the CEDC has only been in place for three months, the committee has met numerous times since our inception, including 8 regular meetings, 3 meetings with the Planning Board, one meeting with the Board of Appeals, and one meeting with the Board of Selectmen. In addition, our Motel Rede- velopment subcommittee met 3 times. Meetings have occurred with concerned citizens and mem- bers of the Affordable Housing Committee. We en- courage and invite any citizen or groups of citizens who are interestedincommunity and economic 82 development to schedule a meeting with the CEDC. Much of the CEDC's work -to -date has been centered on the review and discussion of ways to implement the Bluestone Planning Group (BPG) re- port on Village Center guidelines for Route 28, as well as recommendations made by the Northstar Destination Strategies (Northstar) Community Branding Research. The primary recommendation of the Bluestone Planning Group is for the development of "activity" or "village" centers which would be differentiated from one another as well as the underlying Route 28 corridor. Incentives in identified activity or village centers would encourage commercial, residential, and mixed-use development and redevelopment. The Northstar Branding Research provides the Town with an understanding of how visitors as well as residents perceive the community. Much of the information developed in the branding process will help the Town to position itself within the tourism market in order to attract visitors to Yarmouth as a destination. This information will also help to pro- mote a positive sense of community pride and to develop a sense of place for residents, tourists; and stakeholders. The CEDC has made several recommendations to the Planning Board relative to possible zoning changes for the proposed South Yarmouth (Bass River) Village Center. The CEDC hopes that with many of our recommendations, and with citizens' comments and suggestions, that the Planning Board's rezoning of the South Yarmouth Village Center will result in zoning that will be positively re- ceived at Annual Town Meeting. These zoning changes will greatly benefit the town. In addition, the CEDC has worked to analyze and address a number of the issues currently faced by the Town's hospitality industry. Recent efforts have focused on addressing the effects of the mo- tel ban on the local economy. Working with the Plan- ning Board, the Committee has developed a num- ber of zoning proposals that would provide com- mercial and residential redevelopment and reinvest- ment opportunities to property owners. As the zoning proposals are coalescing, the CEDC, in conjunction with the Planning Board, will work to hold outreach meetings to explain the con- cept of Village Centers, and to obtain additional community comments over the coming months. Finally, the CEDC will continue looking for resources and revenue streams that will help in the implemen- tation and accomplishment of the Board of Select- men defined Community and Economic develop- ment goals. We look forward to 2006 and the accomplish- ments that are within our reach. Respectfully submitted, P.Q. Smith, Chair Tracy Post, Vice Chair Paul Tardif, Clerk John Barker Robert DuBois Jack Hynes Jack McCormack Staff: Karen M. Greene, Director of Community Development Mary Waygan, Administrative Assistant COMMUNITY PRESERVATION COMMITTEE At the January 11, 2005 Special Town Meeting, the Town of Yarmouth voted to adopt the Commu- nity Preservation Act (CPA), replacing the Cape Cod Open Space Land Acquisition Program. The CPA provides the Town with matching funds to help the community preserve open space and historic sites, and create affordable housing and recreational fa- cilities. The Community Preservation Committee (CPC), established in April 2005, makes recommendations to Town Meeting for the acquisition, creation, pres- ervation, and/or rehabilitation of open space, his- toric resources, land for recreational use, and com- munity housing. The CPC is charged with review- ing applications and making recommendations as to which, if any, of these applications should be funded under the CPA. In October 2005, the first Community Preser- vation project was adopted when residents voted to appropriate $815,000` of Community Preserva- tion Act (CPA) funds to purchase a parcel of prop- erty and building at 26 New Hampshire' Avenue in West Yarmouth. The property is adjacent to Englewood Beach in Lewis Bay and the building will be utilized to operate the Town's recreation and boating program: A portion of the funds are allo- 83 cated to replace the existing synthetic railing sys- tem along the jetty walkway with a non -corrosive metal to better protect it from sea water and ocean effect winds. The Community Preservation Committee (CPC), held 5 regular business meetings and 4 public hear- ings in 2005. Six applications were received and four have been recommended for approval at the Annual Town Meeting in April 2006. The CPC membership consists of 9 voting mem- bers. Seven (7) members come from existing com- mittees including om-mitteesincluding the Conservation Commission, Planning Board, Historical Commission, Recreation Commission, Yarmouth Housing Authority, Yarmouth Affordable Housing Committee, and Open Space Committee. The two (2) remaining seats are appointed by the Board of Selectmen and are con- sidered citizen -at -large positions. James R Hoben, Chairman Erik Tolley, Vice Chairman James Carroll Gary Ellis Priscilla Gregory John (Jack) Mulkeen Mary Ann Walsh John Biega Curtis Sears Staff: Jennifer Coutinho, CPC Assistant CONSERVATION COMMISSION - The Yarmouth Conservation Commission was originally formed in 1961 and is presently made up of seven regular members and two staff.° The Commission's "charge" involves regulatory review and issuance of permits pursuant to the Massachu- setts Wetland Protection Act, (M.G.L. Chapter 131, sec. 40.) and the Town of Yarmouth Wetland By- Law, (Chapter 143 of Yarmouth's General By -Law Code). In addition, the Commission manages ap- proximately 1800 acres of town -owned conserva- tion land in Yarmouth. Many acres contain hiking trails while many are set aside allowing natural eco- logical succession. The Commission conducted 79 public hearings during 2005. Highlights included "Vista Pruning" at the Baxter Mill in West Yarmouth. Route 28 motor- ists can now see the many waterfowl that frequent the pond behind the mill. The Bass River Golf Course permitted a new water control structure at its first hole. The "weir" will improve irrigation and save many thousands of gallons of water use each year. The Mass. Highway Department submitted an ap- plication to clean up several storm drainage sys- tems along Route 6-A in Yarmouth Port. The result will improve water quality along the northside estu- aries and create enhanced shellfish habitat. Commission member Gary Ellis was appointed to serve on the newly created Community Preser- vation Committee. Gary is looking forward to work- ing with the committee in the area of open space preservation. The Conservation Commission's Ad- ministrator has been attending on-going wastewa- ter committee meetings each month. The Waste- water Committee is exploring future sewer needs for Yarmouth in order to combat excess nitrogen Toads within our coastal and inland surface waters. Americorps of Cape Cod provided the Com- mission an intem for 2005. Mr. Christopher Sethness of the Chicago area took the lead role in creating new trail map brochures for all of the Conservation Commission's nature trails. The maps are very well done and make it easier for the public to enjoy these areas throughout the year. The Commission was also in receipt of a $5000 grant from the Cape Cod Commission for the printing of the color brochures. Thank you Chris for a job well done. As in past years, the Commission would like to thank the Engineering, Planning, Public Works and Natural Resources Departments for their support and assistance during the year They make our job that much easier and in tum the townspeople benefit. Respectfully submitted, David D. Flaherty, Jr., Chairman William Fenton, Vice Chairman Edwin Hoopes, Secretary Gary Ellis Joan Carr Gerry Duffy Hugh March Staff: Sandi Clark, Office Secretary Bradford L. Hall, Conservation Administrator DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE The Design Review Committee was authorized at annual Town Meeting in April of 2005 to assume the design review duties previously ascribed to the Route 28 Task Force which was dissolved at that time. The new 3 member committee meets prior to Site Plan Review hearings to prepare and submit relevant comments for all projects reviewed through the Site Plan Review Process which are located south of Route 6, as outlined in Zoning Bylaw sec- tion, 103.3.3.1. The committee is assisted part time by Board Secretary, Maryclare Troiano. In addition the Committee's new charge includes the development of new suggested design guide- lines, identification of "blighted" sites and potential strategies for their rehabilitation and assisting with the potential rewrite of the ROAD bylaw and its pro- motion and review of relevant projects. Formally established in late September, the committee reviewed 4 projects during the remain- der of the calendar year In each case reviewed, a member of the Design Review Committee attended the site plan meeting and provided comments and suggestions. Initial fact and data gathering has also occurred in order to provide new guidelines and develop strategies in accordance with the goals of the committee's charge. The committee looks forward to providing the Town of Yarmouth with creative and substantial in- put in developing the means and incentives for the visual and functional improvements to southside commercial zones within our community and ex- pects a busy and productive 2006 year. 84 Respectfully submitted, Dick Martin, Chairman Jack McCormack Sara Jane Porter Staff: Maryclare Troiano, Secretary HISTORIC COMMISSION The Yarmouth Historical Commission is estab- lished by Chapter 40, Section 8.D. of the Massa- chusetts General Laws for the purpose, of preser- vation, protection, and the development of the his- torical and archaeological assets of the Town. It may also recommend to the Massachusetts Historical Commission places to be certified as historical or archaeological landmarks. Member's terms are three years and Associates are appointed annually to pro- vide specific expertise. We have continued collaborating with the Tay- lor/Bray Farm Preservation Association (TBFPA) to support the farm repair and improvements. The commission is currently working with the Commu- nity Development Office on a Request for Qualifi- cations (RFQ) to hire an architect/designer to pro- duce bid documents for rehabilitating the farm house. Meanwhile students from the Regional Tech- nical High School in Harwich have replaced the rot- ten trim and siding on the house to secure it for another year. We are extremely grateful for this help from the Tech school students and their supervi- sors. The TBFPA held two successful fund raisers this year: the very popular Sheep Shearing Festival in the late spring and a Christmas Fair, both of which raised significant funds for the upkeep of the farm animals. The continued dedication of this organiza- tion to the success of the farm should be appreci- ated by all the residents of Yarmouth. Under the guidance of Commissioner Nancy Stewart, the Judah Baker Windmill was once again open to the public through the summer season up until Columbus Day weekend. This continues to be a popular site for visitors. In a memo to the Parks Department we noted that the disrepair of the walk- ways and the steps to the beach at this site were a hazard. The Parks Department has responded to our concerns and will undertake an upgrade to the site, including new stairway and walkways. It should be a much improved park next year. We should also mention that there have been a number of wed- dings conducted here under the supervision of the Recreation Department. At the Baxter Mill, Commissioner Ralph Cutting worked with the County Sheriff's office to remove the brush around the Mill Pond and open up the view from Route 28. This program provides young people working on community projects to various towns in the county and was a very successful col- laboration. A number of commissioners served as YHC rep- resentatives to other town committees. Following the adoption of the Community Preservation Act at town meeting, Priscilla Gregory was name the YHC representative to the newly formed Community Preservation Committee. Commissioner Hugh 85 Hilliard will serve as alternate. In the coming year the YHC will need to prioritize some of the projects that will be coming forth for CPA funds, including the rehabilitation of the Taylor/Bray farmhouse and the Packet Landing Cellar house. We have worked effectively to promote the ad- vantages, both historically and economically, of his- toric preservation and the re -use of our historic build- ings as advocated in the Community Character/His- toric Preservation Chapter of the Yarmouth Com- prehensive Plan. We are grateful for the help ex- tended to us by our secretary Maryclare Troiano, who cheerfully always assists us in working through our tasks.

It is the largest historic district in America and covers some 37 miles continuously along 6A alone. The District's boundaries usually start at Route 6 and proceed northward to the Bay. Chapter 470 of the Acts of 1973, as amended, governs the Yarmouth Old King's Highway (OKH) Historic District Committee and the Old King's High- way Regional Historic District Commission (OKHRHDC). The boundaries of Yarmouth's OKH District are from the Mid -Cape Highway (Route 6) north to the bay and from the Barnstable to Dennis town lines. About 3500 properties are within Yarmouth's OKH district. A annual effort has been made to inform owners that the following exterior changes to their structures or settings require an OKH Certificate of Appropriateness: new construc- tion, alterations, additions, demolitions, siding, sheds, decks, signs, walls, fences, and change of color except to white. Reminders to address this issue are posted on the local cable channel, the Building Department, information table, and OKH office. Property owners within the OKH historic dis- trict also receive this annual reminder in their spring water bills. In 2005, the Committee held 24 public hearings at the Yarmouth Port Fire Station, and acted upon 231 Certificates of Appropriateness; 51 Certificates of Exemption; 2 minor changes; 51 color changes; 29 sheds; 14 signs; 22 new houses; 6 Certificates of Demolition; 6 informal discussions; and accepted 138 "like for like" routine maintenance letters. There were several violation citations issued which require additional work for Committee members, the OKH secretary, and Building Commissioner who is the Enforcement Officer for the Act. One applicant ap- pealed to the Regional Commission level where the committee's decision was upheld. At the Commission level, the chairman attends monthly appeals hearings and regularly consults our OKHRHDC attorney, James Wilson, Esq., with any legal questions that arise. An annual informal meet- ing is held for all members of the six towns within the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District. The OKH held several informal hearings for our applicants that requested such a hearing. These meetings are of benefit to applicants with Targe or complicated projects. The OKH wishes to thank Art Nedley for his 5 years as a member of the Board. Art wishes to "slow down" to full retirement, but we don't really believe him! We wish him well. As of Jan. 1, 2006, we will welcome Mike Sifford as an elected member, and Marilyn Swenson as our new alternate. Scott Fisher was reappointed as Ar- chitect/contractor and we value his knowledge of current construction methods and materials.

The Commission also provides technical assistance to each Cape town on request. Activi- ties involve promotion of affordable housing, de- mographic and economic data analyses, economic development programs, geographic mapping and data analyses, historic preservation, marine and coastal resource protection, preservation of open space and natural resources, transportation plan- ning and analyses, solid and hazardous waste man- agement, and water quality and water supply pro- tection. The Commission is charged with reviewing and regulating Developments of Regional Impact (DRIs), recommending designation of Districts of Critical Planning Concem (DCPCs), and preparing and over- seeing the implementation of the Regional Policy Plan, the set of planning policies and objectives that guide development on Cape Cod. The Commission's regional work in Fiscal Year 2005 focused on growth management initiatives, particularly related to wastewater management, public transportation improvements, and the devel- opment of affordable housing, and on regulatory changes to support those initiatives. For example: • The Commission continued efforts it started last year to revise its regulations, develop- ment guidelines, and internal procedures after 15 years of operation. The Commission approved the first proposal to be reviewed under the category of "project of commu- nity benefit": a new year-round facility for the Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater. The Com- mission also rewrote its Administrative, En- abling, Local Comprehensive Plan, and De- velopment Agreement regulations and adopted new regulations to enable towns to establish Growth Incentive Zones (GIZs) that simultaneously encourage a mix of uses in village centers with adequate infrastructure and discourage sprawling development in outlying areas. The Commission also formed an Ad Hoc Committee on Regulatory Effec- tiveness to make the DRI review process more effective, more flexible, less costly, and more understandable. 87 • The Commission worked with partners in the region to coordinate programs and develop land use policies that influence affordable housing in a positive way. For example, the Commission submitted the "Five-year Con- solidated Plan" for affordable housing to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban De- velopment on behalf of the entire region, ensuring Cape Cod's continued eligibility for federal and state housing funds. • The Commission's short- and Tong -range transportation plans helped identify and pro- vide funding for present and future year- round and seasonal transportation needs for the region. The Commission continues to support transit service and other alternatives to automobile travel; this year, for example, the Commission had a lead role in develop- ing and advancing a proposal for a new tran- sit bus service for the Outer Cape (the "Flex Service"), which will combine traditional fixed -route service and route deviation to allow the buses to serve areas up to a mile from the defined routes. The service should be operational in summer 2006. • The Commission pursued and promoted a better understanding of water quality in wells, estuaries, and ponds, which in turn is help- ing local, regional, state, and federal scien- tists and officials develop and implement solutions to protect and manage these re- sources. The Commission had a strong role this year in a variety of county work related to wastewater management, including dis- tribution of a wastewater management tools report, extensive outreach to Cape commu- nities about the report's recommendations for implementation of a comprehensive re- gional wastewater management strategy, and development of a groundwater model to help evaluate potential sites for future wastewater disposal. The Commission also continued to support the county's Blue Rib- bon Committee for Regional Wastewater and the county -funded Massachusetts Estuaries Project with watershed -based nitrogen -load- ing assessments of many Cape embay- ments. Technical Assistance Provided to the Town of Yarmouth, FY2005 The Cape Cod Commission provided technical assistance directly to the Town of Yarmouth in Fis- cal Year 2005, as described below: Geographic Information System (GIS) Program • Provided training for town staff on the use of Pictometry software. Planning, Community Development and Regulatory Programs Provided technical assistance to the Yarmouth New Church Preservation Foun- dation to develop a grant application for state preservation funds. Continued to provide support for the Local Comprehensive Plan implementation grant and technical comments on the Local Com- prehensive Plan. Approved with conditions the Development of Regional Impact (DRI) application for the Cape Cod Hospital Patient Bed Addition project. • Continued to review a DRI proposal for the Cape Wind Project Transportation Program Provided assistance in obtaining state and federal funds for transportation projects through the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). • Continued to provide technical assistance with the Packets Landing redevelopment project. Coordinated a regional traffic congestion and safety study of a portion of Route 28. Performed traffic counts on 18 road seg- ments and at four intersections, including portions of Abells Road, Buck Island Road, Higgins 'Crowell Road, Highbank Road (Bridge), North Main Street, Old Church Street, Railroad Avenue, Regional Avenue, Seaview Avenue, Setucket Road, South Shore Drive, South Street, Station Avenue, Strawberry Lane, Town Brook Road, Union Street, Willow Street, and Routes 6, 6A, and 28. Waste Management Program Assisted the .town with its household haz- ardous waste collections:; Water Resources Program Coordinated water quality "snapshots" (sam- pling and analyses) of Big Sandy Pond, Den- nis, Flax, Greenough, Horse, Little Sandy, Long, and Tom Mathews ponds. Monitored groundwater levels in six US Geo- logical Survey (USGS) observation wells in Yarmouth each month. Provided assistance with wastewater man- agement planning and provided technical as- sistance with groundwater modeling through Barnstable County's USGS project to evalu- ate the effect of potential wastewater dis- posal sites. Continued to provide support for a Barnstable County -funded $50,000 study of wastewater treatment technologies: Respectfully submitted, Dr. William Marasco Yarmouth Representative to the Cape Cod Commission 88 COMMUNITY SERVICES YARMOUTH TOWN LIBRARIES Yarmouth Town Libraries are unique. They are essential, changing and dynamic places. Where else can you have access to nearly anything on the Web or in print, as well as personal assistance in finding it? The Yarmouth Town Libraries continued their commitment in 2005 to providing the very best li- brary service to meet the community's informational, cultural, and recreational needs. Once again, the Yarmouth Town Libraries main- tained their position as the second busiest library system on the Cape, in spite of temporary closures of the South Yarmouth Children's Department and Fiction area for periods of time during FY 05. Registered borrowers 13,131 Circulation 200,222 Items provided to other libraries 23,015 Items borrowed from other libraries 22,112 Library visitors 157,247 Reference questions answered 9,209 Children's programs 244 Attendance at Children's programs 2,016 Adult and Young Adult programs 52 Attendance at Adult and Young Adult programs 1,627 Number of volunteers 52 Volunteer hours of service 4,962 Meeting Room use 315 Computer use 603 (average per week) Visitors to Library Website 21,000 This year, thanks to talented staff, the library's website design (www.yarmouthlibraries.org) contin- ued to evolve as the electronic gateway to library services and resources. New additions include: digi- tal pictures of all three libraries linking to specific information, a calendar of events, PDF version of the monthly newsletter, video tours of the SY library, link to Library Board and Library association infor- mation, policies and reader's advisory links. Wireless access is an exciting and welcome extension to the existing Yarmouth Town Libraries Internet service. Because there are times of the day when demand for Internet access outweighs the available computer resources; we introduced Wi-Fi (wireless internet access) to all three Yarmouth Li- brary branches in November 2005. - TheAncestryPlus data base remains very popu- lar and we have renewed our subscription for an- other year. Relevant print and electronic resources continue to provide our users with up to date ac- cess to a variety of essential topics including medi- cal, consumer, and investment information for all ages. Yarmouth Town Libraries welcomed five new employees this year: Anne Hennessey Cifelli, Jo- seph LaBrecque, Nora Winstead, Martha Powers, all Library Technicians; and Tracey Hill, Library Page. The Town Library Board continued to be a vital force under the skilled leadership of Marion Broidrick. Martita Bergendahl, who stepped down as Chair last year, resigned form the Board this year along with Allen Bragdon and Patty Bronstein. Their dedication and stalwart support will be greatly missed. The Board welcomed two new members: Helen Greenhow and George Burr. The three library associations continued their commitment to support and enhance library ser- vices. They conducted a number of fundraising ac- tivities to supplement library materials and pro- grams, and to help maintain library furnishings and buildings. Their support of the Yarmouth Town Li- braries and its staff is greatly appreciated. Thanks also to all the dedicated library volun- teers without whom many programs and services would not be possible. Library programs for all ages are an integral part of ongoing library service to the Yarmouth Commu- nity. Adult programs attracted 1627 people in 2005. Sven Sieman, our generous benefactor, made pos- sible the Annual Art lecture provided by Mary Moquin, the Cecilia Sieman Scholarship awarded to Justine Crosby, and new additions to the at col- lection. The South Yarmouth Trustees again offered their well attended series hosted by the Program/ Hospitality Committee chaired by Marge Fallows. The Great Books group, led by Pat Polillo entered its eighth successful year. West Yarmouth initiated a unique offering this year called BookTeasers. Un- der the guidance of Martha Powers, members sip 89 tea while discussing their favorite books. Over 2000 children attended programs at Yarmouth Town Libraries in 2005. Over one hun- dred and fifty children participated in our first ever community service based summer reading program to put books into Safe Harbor, a shelter for battered women and their children. Because our readers were so enthusiastic about helping the shelter, they read an additional 1017 hours adding to our goal an ad- ditional forty one titles bringing our total to ninety- one books donated. Many, many thanks to every- one who helped make the second annual Polar Express a resounding success including our con- ductors Scott Dalton and John Biega and Cape Destinations, who provided the trolley and driver. Heartfelt appreciation to our own holiday sprites, Jayne Southworth and Janice Nikula-Dalton, whose creativity and dedication again made this a truly magical night! During October and November the South Yarmouth and Yarmouth Port Libraries displayed items from the Edward Gorey House Museum and the Edward Gorey Estate. Andreas Brown, execu- tor of the Gorey estate and owner of the famous Gotham Book Mart in NYC graciously loaned us items from the estate that are not ordinarily on dis- play. Rick LaFleur, curator of the Edward Gorey House also loaned us a number of items. We hope to make this an annual event. In May 2005 voters approved $475,000 to keep the South Yarmouth library building safe and us- able for 5 years. The priorities for this project are to address health and safety issues connected with the HVAC systems and to secure the building en- velope. Repairs are set to begin mid -winter and be completed by spring. Brown, Lindquist, Fenuccio & Raber are the architects and Builders Systems Inc. is the General Contractor. 90 A survey was sent out on October 17 to 1,061 Yarmouth residents selected as part of a statisti- cally significant random sample. The results of the survey will inform the Library Director, Yarmouth Li- brary Board, and the Board of Selectmen as they make future decisions regarding library facility im- provements. It was developed under the direction of a Professor of Public Management from Suffolk University, Sawyer School of Management with Town input on the issues to be addressed. The re- sults will be made available to the general public at the Library Website and at each of the Yarmouth libraries early in 2006. In 2001, the Yarmouth Town Libraries developed a plan for FY 2002 - FY 2006. I'm happy to report that the Libraries, using the limited resources avail- able, have achieved the goals set forth in that plan. A new five year planning process is now underway. Starting in February 2006, a five year plan commit- tee, composed of representative members of the community in conjunction with public meetings; will develop a new five year plan. I want to extend my thanks to the dedicated Library staff, the Town Library Board, the Library Trustees/Associations, the Town Administration, and the citizens of Yarmouth for their wonderful support during my first months as Library Director. Special thanks to Carol Devir who did an outstanding job as Acting Director in the five months before my ar- rival. I am happy and exited to. be part of this vital, caring, and spirited community. I eagerly look for- ward to playing a part in the future of the Yarmouth Town Libraries. Respectfully submitted, Jacqueline Adams Director of Libraries NATURAL RESOURCES DIVISION LAW ENFORCEMENT/NATURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT Calls for assistance to the Division of Natural Resources were at an all time high in 2005. It is very apparent that residents and visitors to Yarmouth are utilizing our natural resources for active and pas- sive recreation. RABIES SURVEILLANCE A significant factor in the increase in calls was due primarily to the outbreak of rabies on Cape Cod that began in the spring of 2004. The division was inundated with calls about suspect sick wildlife (mostly raccoons) during the winter and spring months of this year. Initially this year, as was the case last year, we undertook an aggressive surveil- lance program to collect data for the United States Department.of Agriculture, Wildlife Services. Under this surveillance program all suspect mammals that were picked up by the division were submitted to the Mass Dept. of Public Health laboratory for ra- bies testing. Towards the end of the spring we could only submit wildlife that had been exposed to a human or domestic animal. The Natural Resources Division worked closely with the Health Department in investigating and following up on exposure cases. The shift from submitting all suspect animals to just exposures came at the request of the state rabies lab which was becoming inundated with too many specimen. The division however, still responded to every call pertaining to sick animals and handled each call accordingly. RABIES EDUCATION The Natural Resources Division in cooperation with the Health Division created a number of power point presentations on rabies awareness that have been used in educating elementary school children, day and overnight children campers and staff, mu- nicipal employees, police and other law enforce- ment agencies and the general public. A fully nar- rated version of the general public forum has been shown on the public access cable television chan- nel. Natural Resources and Health Department staff presented three age appropriate rabies awareness programs to all Yarmouth elementary schools, grades K-5 (1,200 children). Training was also given to other town departments that might come in to It 91 Karl and Amy von Hone accept the Yarmouth Area Chamber of Commerce 2005 Public Service Award. contact with rabid animals. On October 27, Natural Resources Director Karl von Hone and Health Divi- sion Assistant Director Amy von Hone were pre- sented with the 2005 Yarmouth Area Chamber of Commerce Community Service Award for this pro- gram. This program was also recognized by the MMA which awarded Yarmouth the Kenneth E. Pickard Municipal Innovation Award, for the rabies awareness program. WILDLIFE RESPONSE/EDUCATION The division responded to a wide variety of ani- mal calls in general, from land mammals, to bird species, to the growing population of marine mam- mals. As always, these animals were evaluated and monitored by staff for sickness or injuries. If deter- mined sick or injured, the animal is brought to a rehabilitation clinic where its symptoms are treated or it is euthanized if nothing else can be done. Many times however, the divisions' response to animal calls is to educate the public about the animals' behavior and how to successfully co -exist with them. One reoccurring problem that we experienced this year, was animals that were being habituated to humans by people who thought that they were doing a good thing and feeding them. For public safety reasons, as well as the animals' well-being we ask that people not feed wildlife. WILDLIFE HABITAT MANAGEMENT In the early spring, the division re -erected two of the town's osprey nesting poles that were knocked down by ice over the winter. Shortly after the poles were erected, each became occupied by a nesting pair of birds. In fact all but one of our poles were occupied this year. The division continued to patrol and maintain the Long Pond herring run. Although water levels were good and the run was in good shape, we had very low fish numbers this year. Extremely low river herring numbers are being seen state-wide leading the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries to impose a three-year moratorium on the harvest, possession, and sale of river herring. Officers from the Natural Resources Division will be conducting increased patrols this coming year to ensure that no river herring are taken at all. The division also plans to work with marine fisheries biologists to in- troduce "spawners" to Long Pond and possibly other historic herring runs sometime during the course of the moratorium to help in the recovery of this resource. This would be dependent upon fish availability from systems where donor stocks would be taken from. We hope to see river herring once again become a viable resource. 92 LAND MANAGEMENT We were able to continue our schedule of trail maintenance in our conservation areas. Due to added work -load in other areas this year, we could not have done this without the help of Americorps- Cape Cod and the Senior Americorps. We would like to thank them for their help in monitoring and maintaining trail conditions and for helping us build new boardwalks in the Raymond J. Syrjala Conser- vation Area and the Callery-Darling Conservation Area. LAW ENFORCEMENT PATROLS The division has continued to conduct routine patrols this fall and winter to check sportsmen who are engaged in hunting activities and ensure com- pliance with state and local hunting and firearms regulations. Due to the increased popularity of muzzleloader firearms, the division has seen more hunters during muzzleloader season for deer this year than ever. Illegal dumping of household trash, building demolition and landscape debris continues to be a problem all across town. Officers routinely patrol areas where this problem is likely to occur and con- duct investigations if illegal dumping has taken place. In most cases, we are able to identify the responsible parties and hold them accountable. If you see this activity being conducted please con- tact our office or the police department. SHELLFISH REPORT FOR 2005 Many areas in the town continue to be classi- fied as seasonally approved for the harvest of shell- fish by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Divi- sion of Marine Fisheries (D.M.F.). Water quality moni- toring continues to be a top priority of this division and D.M.F. We are slowly seeing improvements to our ma- rine water quality and we are grateful to all those involved with this process. In cooperation with the Department of Public Works, point discharge sites continue to be prioritized and engineered to reduce the amount of discharge being drained directly into our embayments and estuaries. Most of Yarmouth's shellfish beds are at least seasonally approved for the harvest of shellfish, with the exception of the north side, Hallets Mill Pond, Lone Tree Creek and Bass Creek in Yarmouth Port. In 2005, the Division has continued with the Citi- zens Water Quality Monitoring Program, which was expanded to include Bass River in its entirety. Grant monies acquired by the Division of Natural Re- sources allowed for this expansion to take place. The majority of the water quality testing was asso- ciated with the Massachusetts Department of En- vironmental-Protection Estuaries Program. This is the 4th year for testing in Lewis Bay, Mill Creek and Parker's River, and the 3rd year for Bass River. This program is expected to continue for the next 2 years and will result in recommendations as how to re- duce nitrogen levels in our estuaries. A special thanks goes out to all that participated. The data collected will be used in a larger study sponsored by the Massachusetts Department of Environmen- tal Protection for all waterways in the common- wealth. This study will provide the town with rec- ommendations as to the overall conditions of our waterways as it relates to nitrogen levels as well as provide recommendations as to what levels should be and how the levels may be improved. The divi- sion will be looking for additional volunteers in 2006. Recreational (Family) Shellfishing was open in Mill Creek, Bass River, Wilbur Park, Lewis Bay from Springer Road to Crowell Road, Pine Island Cove and Lewis Bay from New Hampshire Street to Co- lonial Acres. Commercial shellfishing for quahogs was open in Bass River, Lewis Bay to include Uncle Robert's Cove, Smith's Point and Nantucket Sound. Com- mercial harvest of soft-shell clams was open in Follins Pond, Bass River, Swan Pond and Parker's River. Due to the relatively dry, hot summer, Bass River North, (Rte. 6 to Follins Pond) was open for the harvest of quahogs for a total of 105 fishing days from May 15th through November 30th under the conditionally approved status based on rainfall. The average number of commercial shellfishing days over the last five years is 79 days. Bass River, Lewis Bay and Nantucket Sound were open from Novem- ber 29, 2005 to March 31, 2006 for the harvest of. Bay Scallops. 93 In its sixth season working with the County seed shellfish program the Division of Natural Resources received 1.3 million 1 mm seed quahogs in June of 2005. With the hotter than average summer and lack of rainfall, the production at the aquaculture farm was down slightly from last year as high water temps stunted the growth of the seed. This resulted in slightly smaller field plant in October when it was broadcasted into our recreational shellfishing areas. The algae produced in Parker's River was abun- dant and there were no mechanical problems at the facility, which made it a good growing season. The last two years of cold winter temperatures has helped control the crab populations and all natural predators of juvenile shellfish. In the fall of 2005, 600,000 18mm/22mm and 500,00014mm/18mm seed quahogs grown at the upweller facility were broadcasted into our recre- ational shellfishing areas. Approximately 200,000 12mm/16mm seed quahogs were planted under protective netting. In 2005, the Division of Natural Resource Shell- fish Division conducted it's annual contaminated quahog relay. This year's relay was divided into three phases: the first phase was the delivery of contami- nated quahogs from the states relay program; the second phase of the relay was an in town removal from the upper Mill Creek area. A total of 541 - 80 pound bags were received from the states relay pro- gram and 355 - 80 pound bags of quahogs were dug bytheYarmouth commercial shellfishermen and transplanted by the Yarmouth Shellfish Section staff. All contaminated shellfish were planted in Lewis Bay, between Standish Way and New Hampshire Avenue and seaward 300 feet. This area is scheduled to be opened in the summer of 2006. The third phase of the 2005 shellfish relay was to remove clean stock from the upper Mill Creek area before May 1, 2005. This clean stock was used to enhance two smaller shellfish areas, also located in Lewis Bay. The first area was the eastern shore of Lewis Bay from Englewood Beach east to the first stone jetty at Henderson's Cove which received 148 — 80 pound bags; the second area called Smith Point which is for commercial use only received 100 - 80 pound bags. The fall of 2005 was a better than average scal- lop season for Recreational and Commercial Fish- ermen. 2005 SHELLFISH STATISTICS PERMITS Recreational 1021 03 $ 15/each Non -Resident 24 © $ 75/each Commercial 20 © $300/each Commercial Eel 3 © $ 25/each TOTAL PERMIT SALES: $15,315.00 $ 1,800.00 $ 6,000.00 $ 75.00 $23,190.00 PRIVATELY LEASED SHELLFISH AREAS Great Island Oyster Co.

In an attempt to better understand and accommodate the needs of our community, we identify changes that signify trends in pet ownership. A good example of this and the most notice- able trend seen in the past 20 years would be the shift from dog ownership to cat ownership. Despite the fact that more dogs are licensed now than in 1985, (1,864 in 1985 vs. 2,912 in 2005), far less dogs are picked up in violation of the leash law. This trend of restraining dogs is directly respon- sible for keeping dogs safe, as fewer dogs are in- jured or struck by motor vehicles when they are properly controlled. There is also a direct correla- tion between dogs being restrained and the num- ber of dog bites and other problems associated with irresponsible pet ownership. Dog bites peaked at a record high of 50 during 1985-1986 when a work related injury to the Animal Control Officer left the town without a full time of- ficer. Once a full time officer was hired, patrols and enforcement resumed, and the numbers subsided to 20 to 30 reported bites per year. In prior years records indicated that over 95% of dog bites were caused by dogs that were im- properly restrained or unsupervised, biting victims while off the owner's property. In 2005,12 of the 30 reported dog bites involved owners or members of the same household. This suggests that either the owner failed to socialize or train their pet properly or that they ac- quired a dog that was poorly bred and inadequately socialized prior to acquisition. Please feel free to call our office with any behavioral problems you may have. If we cannot help you we can refer you to a qualified dog trainer. Cats weren't even mentioned in the town's an- nual report until 1988! At about that time, calls per- taining to cats began to skyrocket. The rise in cat ownership proved to be a double- edged sword for our feline friends. Despite becom- ing a more common pet, cats receive far less su- pervision, less veterinary care and protection by the law than dogs. (The American Veterinary Medical Association reports that cats go to the vets half as often as dogs). As cats gained the status of America's favored pet we have seen a rise in the number of homeless cats, reports of both lost and found cats, a rise in the number of cats we impound, (we picked up 241 cats in 1992), and sadly a sharp increase in the number of cats that are hit and killed by motor vehicles. There was also some good news. Our records show that 2005 saw the least number of cats that have been injured and killed on roads (26) since 1989.1992 saw the largest number of cats, (81, with 73 surviving), that had been struck by motor ve- hicles. This may be due to the fact that more and more cat owners are choosing to keep their cats indoors, where they will be safe from harm. The number of cats reported found, lost or injured seem to be leveling off as well with 128 reported in 2005 compared to a peak of 218 reported in 1994. In re- cent years, we have targeted cat owners to attend our rabies clinic, as cats are more likely to come in contact with a rabid animal. We have been very 94 successful. Our 2005 Rabies Clinic was attended by 44 dogs and 82 cats. - The Cape Cod Tag Your Cat Campaign, an idea developed by Yarmouth Animal Control, and funded .through The International Fund For Animal Welfare, (IFAW), is in part, responsible for the very positive trend in cat ownership and contributes to the rea- son, we see this change. The campaign not only helped to make cat owner's aware of the need for cats to wear identification, but it helped promote proper pefcare as well. The towns spay -neuter, medical assistance pro- gram, also funded by IFAW, thru a grant awarded to the Animal Control section, helped with the medi- cal costs of 43 cats that were initially reported to our office as strays. Some of these cats were adopted through our local shelters, some were adopted directly from our office, and a good por- tion of the cats were kept by the residents who ini- tially called our office. Yarmouth Animal Control and Protection would like to extend its most sincere grati- tude to IFAW, not only for their good work, but for enabling us to do ours. If' you see what you think is a homeless cat, please notify our office. It is also very important to take immediate action if your pet is ever lost. The most positive change the Animal Control section made financially was in 1992 when we asked voters at Town Meeting to pull out of the County Dog System. This allowed the town to keep all mon- ies related to dogs through fines and dog licensing, rather than turn those monies over to the county. It also provided us the legal opportunity to write our own laws and fine structure pertaining to domestic animals. In 1985 the Town took in $1,211.25 in fees related to dogs and cats. In 2005 the Town received $23,457. in fees pertaining to licensing and another $13,000 in fees for violations. The 18th Annual Blessing of the Animals was a huge success. We again thank our generous spon- sors, Ann and Fran's Kitchen and Kaleidoscope Imprints for this well loved event. The Animal Control staff takes pride in its work assisting animals and citizens, helping to improve the quality of life for people and their pets and cel- ebrates each and every happy ending. We sincerely hope that 2006 is a.safe year for both you and your pet. 'own of Yrmouhi Rabies: What kids need to know! {C. asx Yd mAn<wc.: wt:viomxvka< Massachusetts Municipal Association Kenneth E.

Lewis Bay and Bass River were highly congested due to the continual growth of local sail- ing programs and popularity of the sport. Lewis Bay also saw an increase in unauthorized overnight an- chorage in its coves and channels. Incidents of negligent operation involving per- sonal watercraft increased this year This is due to the popularity of personal watercraft combined with the increased availability of rentals along the shore- line of Nantucket Sound. The Harbor Patrol officers continue to strictly enforce state and local laws per- taining to personal watercraft keeping theses inci- dents to a minimum. The Harbor Patrol boats re- spond to a significant number of vessels in distress or in need of assistance. The Harbormaster section continued to perform random safety checks in an effort to raise public awareness of state and local boating laws. This gave patrol boat operators the opportunity to interact with and educate the citizens of Yarmouth on safe boat- ing protocol. In Massachusetts, any child under 12 years of age, must wear a personal floatation de- vice onboard any boat that is underway. The divi- sion also saw a decrease in individuals boating un- der the influence of alcohol. In 2005 the Town of Yarmouth waters played host to the Great Lakes Off Shore Power Boat As- sociation. Division personnel participated as a mem- ber of the event organization and oversight com- mittee. Division patrol boats were responsible for public safety and accurate placement of course turn buoys. The division would like to thank all of the 96 volunteer patrol boat operators who helped to se- cure the race perimeter. Efforts to improve water quality were continued throughout the Town of Yarmouth with the utiliza- tion of a pump out boat and a portable pump out trailer. Approximately 650 gallons of septic waste was removed from vessels, free of cost to the boat- ing community. Water quality tests have proven the effectiveness of the program and marine waste along Yarmouth's shoreline has continued to dimin- ish. Yarmouth Harbormaster section also continued to provide mutual aid support to our neighboring communities with respect to emergencies, regat- tas and specially permitted boating events. The Englewood boat ramp in Lewis Bay was repaired and upgraded through a grant program with the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, Public Access Board:. Division staff worked with a private contractor and state officials to complete the project and to. improve the publics access to Yarmouth waters. The division has submitted a proposal to the Public Access Board for repairs and upgrades to the Wilbur Park boat ramp in Bass River. This project will hopefully be funded and completed in 2006: 97 We continued to see an increase in mooring and slip rentals for the 2005 boating season. During the off season, commercial slips are available to'com- mercial fishermen who will be actively fishing dur- ing the winter months. Minor improvements have been made to all town owned marinas. Waiting lists still exist for all town owned marinas and although a number of mooring wait list applicants were ac- commodated, the wait list for all other mooring ar- eas have remained constant. Information on town owned marina slips and moorings may be obtained by contacting the Natural Resources Office. During the 2005 season, maintenance dredg- ing continued with 2,500 cubic yards of material being dredged from the mouth of Bass River with 50% of the material used for beach nourishment at Bass River Beach. Maintenance dredging will con- tinue, as funds are available. We are looking forward to another good sea- son in 2006. Respectfully submitted, Karl W. vonHone Natural Resource Director DIVISION OF SENIOR SERVICES The Division of Senior Services provides pro- grams, activities, and services to Yarmouth residents age 59-1/2 and older. Additionally, information and referral services are provided to families and friends who are caregivers for an elderly person. One of the major goals of the Division is to provide oppor- tunities for people to remain socially and intellectu- ally engaged in meaningful ways throughout their lives. Our regularly scheduled programs include: aero- bics, strength and flexibility training, yoga, Tai Chi, ballroom and line dancing, blood pressure screen- ing, diabetic screening, nutrition counseling, pedi- cure, psychotherapy, and reflexology. Seniors may learn new skills by attending any one of the follow- ing: contract and duplicate bridge, watercolor and oil painting, bird carving, low -relief carving, knitting, quilting, men's cooking, Chinese cooking, Swedish weaving, needlework, scrabble, cribbage, mah jongg, poker and a variety of computer classes. During 2005 we offered additional programs on Alzheimer's Disease, Home Safety, Wind Farm is- sues, Mass Telephone Access Program, RMV's Shifting Gears, Rabies, Long Term Care Options, Hypnotherapy, Diabetes, Accupressure, Prescrip- tion Drugs: A Love Hate Relationship, 2-10 week sessions of Healthy Aging and Wellness, Graves and Crone's disease, Congestive Heart Failure, 2 plays by the Bluestone Actors, and a Holiday Concert by the Mid -Cape Chorus. The Division received a $1200 grant from the Gale fund to establish the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered (LGBT) Elder Project to provide a range of programs that would be inclusive and supportive to the community. The programs in- cluded: Know the Law, Stonewall Revisited, Reli- gion, Politics and Same Sex Manage, a Senior Prom forLGBTElders and Friends. The LGBT Project has been very well attended by both gay and straight individuals and will continue into 2006. The Division is very grateful for the tremendous support we receive from our volunteers. Last year 175 people generously gave of their time and talent to help out with Meals on Wheels, answering phones, computer assistance, blood pressure screening, psychotherapy, legal advice, nutritional diabetic screening, and at the congregate lunch site. Federal and state tax returns were prepared by vol- unteers for 224 residents saving them a minimum of $22,400 in tax prep fees. A volunteer processed 70 Fuel Assistance Applications which resulted in , fuel valued at $37,500 delivered to Yarmouth resi- dents as well as establishing eligibility for additional benefits for these clients. Members of the Yarmouth Moose Family Lodge have been providing rides to medical appointments every Tuesday for which 30 seniors were very thankful. Volunteers delivered 21,979 Meals on Wheels to home bound seniors. In the lunch room at the Senior Center 3,401 lunches were served. Seniors are asked to make a $2.00 donation to offset the cost of the program which is federally funded and administered locally by Elder Services of Cape Cod and the Islands (ESCCI). The Division of Senior Ser- vices works cooperatively with ESCCI to provide this service for elderly residents. The Town has granted ESCCI $23,400 in Community Development Block Grant funds to offset the cost of this program. Serving Health Information Needs of Elders, (SHINE), a state program that assists seniors with health insurance issues, has located the regional office in the Senior Center. This program has been invaluable this past year helping seniors choose ap- propriate providers for their prescription coverage under Medicare Part D. Volunteers and staff in the SHINE office saw 299 clients and saved them a to- tal of $230,000 in health insurance benefits. The Tax Work -Off program provided 33 individu- als the opportunity to volunteer 83 hours with a Town department to be eligible to receive a $500 abate- ment on their real estate taxes for their primary resi- dence. People worked in a variety of departments including; Recreation, Town Clerk, Town Collector, Assessors, Dept. of Natural Resources, Town Administrator's Office, the Board of Health, Con- servation, Dept. of Community Development, Fire Dept. and the Board of Appeals. This program has been very successful helping people reduce their taxes while providing some much needed assis- tance to the departments. The Division is most appreciative for the finan- cial support provided by the Friends of the Yarmouth Senior Center. During 2005 they paid for window treatments throughout the building, bought 7 new computers for the computer lab, paid for 50% of the cost of mailing the newsletter, underwrote the 98 weekly dance held in Betsey's Ballroom, supported the intergenerational reading programs at Station Ave. and John Simpkins Elementary Schools and provided funds for a farewell tea for two employees who resigned. would like to thank the Senior Center staff: Cathy Flanagan, Shirley Regas, Steve Gabrick, Hilda Davenport, Jeanette Hernon, and Mary Sears for their efforts during the year to keep everything run- ning as smoothry as possible for those using our services. We regretfully accepted the resignations of two part-time Outreach Coordinators, Phyllis Brown and Kay MacCormack during 2005 and wish them well. I would also like to extend my thanks to all of the municipal departments who are always so willing to help out when asked. 99 Respectfully submitted, Karen Marciante, Director of Senior Services Chair Robert Isadore William Gallagher Virginia Robinson Suzanne Cullinan Margaret DeBonville Gerald Haley Clare Hipp Elizabeth Sarnosky GOLF DIVISION The Division continues with the implementation of the recommendations from the National Golf Foundation along with additional improvements to the facilities and operations, including: • Successfully administered a lottery tee time reservations system providing equity as well as convenience in resident annual fee tee time distribution. • Continued efforts to improve the pace of play at the Town courses. • Continued to operate the Golf Shops and the Bayberry Driving Range operation generating over $217,000 in revenue at the two courses; enhancing customer service to the patrons and better utilizing current golf shop employ- ees while maintaining the overall golf opera- tion wages at below 2003 levels. • Upgraded Golf Car Staging Area at Bass River resulting in labor savings and better customer service. • Continued to upgrade the level of mainte- nance and service at the courses with im- provements in methods and equipment; re- ceived the Best on Cape Cod Award for Bay- berry Hills by the Boston Sports Review. • Having completed the new, state of the art irrigation system at Bass River Goff Course we were able to provide impeccable course conditions for Yarmouth residents and guests alike. The Golf Division continues to strive to provide quality facilities and patron services. The division provides over 100,000 rounds of golf annually to residents and visitors. The improvements made in FY2005 will help us to continue our mission. Despite a difficult year due to economic condi- tions and increased competition from off Cape courses, the Division's revenue for FY2005 ex- ceeded its day to day operating expense (including interest on debt, other expenses, and overhead charges) by $362,220.80. When principal payments on debt are included, expenditures exceed revenues by only ($3,979.20). In FY 2005, Total Golf Revenue was $53,073 Tess than in 2004, making it the third best revenue year on record with the inclusion of the golf range, golf shops, and non-resident annual fee contribu- tions. The gap between receipts and expenditures remains small with a cumulative excess of revenues over expenditures of $2,370 over the last three fis- cal years (2003, 2004 and 2005) combined. We are holding our own in a hyper -competitive golf economy that has seen rounds played fall both na- tionally and regionally while the supply of golf courses available to play has continued to increase. The decision to operate the courses' range and golf shops continues to pay dividends, as do savings resulting from the realignment of maintenance per- sonnel and responsibilities between the two courses. Annual Golf Pass options in 2005: Regular Annual Pass $633.75 Allows unlimited play at no additional charge Senior Punch Card $55.00 Allows 5 to 10 plays depending on time of use, for those age 75 or older Junior Annual Pass $110.00 Restricted as to time Non -Resident Annual Pass $892.50 Allows unlimited play at no additional charge In December of 2005, the Selectmen adopted the following fee schedule for 2006 including a new, ten nine -hole play, punch card option for residents of any age: Regular Annual Pass $665.00 Allows unlimited play at no additional charge Senior Punch Card $57.50 Allows 5 to 10 plays depending on time of use, for those age 75 or older Junior Annual Pass $115.00 Restricted as to time of play Non -Resident Junior Annual Pass $150.00 Restricted as to time of play Non -Resident Annual Pass $935.00 Allows unlimited play at no additional charge 100 FY 2005 Revenue -Expenditure Analysis Revenue: Regular Green Fees $1,004,234 Offset Green Fees 447,132 Golf Car Fees 624,250 Pull Cart Fees 6,178 Resident Annual Fees 577,456 Offset Resident Annual Fees 164,265 Non Resident Annual Fees 57,078 Miscellaneous Revenue 7,442 Food Concessions Collections 27,780 Offset: Golf Shop 138,087 Golf Range 79,864 Golf Handicap Fees 11,565 Total Revenue: $3,145,362 A Expense: Wages and Salaries $1,256,702 Purchase of Services 264,131 Supplies 75,787 Other Expenses (Includes Capital) 103,101 Offset Purchase of Services 105,944 Offset Supplies (Includes Golf Shop Merchandise purchases) 499,974 Offset Other Expenses (Includes Health insurance) 64,829 Sub Total Operating Expense $2,370,467 Debt - Land & Construction (Interest) .... $135,868 Other Costs (includes unemployment and pension costs) 202,381 Overhead 74,425 Sub Total Interest, Other, Overhead ... $412,674 Total Expenditures less Debt Principal $2,783,141 B.

($ 3,979) 101 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY DIVISION The role of the Information Technology Division is to address the continually increasing demand for more effective ways to access, maintain, distribute and analyze information pertaining to the Town of Yarmouth. Toward this end, the Information Tech- nology Division seeks to ensure that new data is developed properly, that Yarmouth's existing data is being utilized effectively, that all departments have proper access to data, and that the Town's systems and equipment are being used to their full potential. The Director of Information Technology, the sole staff member of the Division, is responsible for fulfilling these goals, as well as, designing, acquiring, install- ing, operating, coordinating, and supporting the maintenance of voice, computer, video and related telecommunications services within the Town of Yarmouth. The Division made great strides toward these goals in 2005. The following sections list what was accomplished and what is planned for 2006. -Net The I -Net is a Broadband Fiber Optic network, which links 23 municipal buildings within the Town, allowing for high-speed transmission of information. Through the I -Net, these Town buildings currently share file, print, E-mail and Internet access. This past year was spent expanding this resource further. One example is the implementation of an IP phone sys- tem connecting three Department of Public Works buildings together over the Town's Fiber Optic Net- work. The Highway, Cemetery and Park Department's phone lines now are connected through the I -Net, with the Park Department's phone connection enabled wirelessly. This I -Net phone network enabled us to simultaneously improve the phone system and reduce annual phone service costs. 2006 will see the I -Net continue to be devel- oped within Town through the design and imple- mentation of effective and efficient methods of send- ing voice and video information between Town build- ings. Data Access and GIS The Division's goal, in regard to electronic data, has been to demonstrate improved access to Yarmouth's electronic information, especially for Town offices outside of Town hall and the general public. Currently, Yarmouth's electronic data is be- ing used for a variety of purposes, by an increasing number of departments. This has been accom- plished through the use of the I -NET and our ability to access and utilize data from a variety of legacy databases. Sharing of this data through the I -Net allows the Town of Yarmouth to maximize the capabilities of applications such as the Geographic Information System (GIS). The Geographic Information System (GIS) is an organized collection of computer hard- ware, software and geographic data designed. to capture, store, update, manipulate, analyze, and display all forms of geographically referenced infor- mation. This System allows users to perform very difficult, time consuming, or otherwise impractical spatial analyses. This year was spent providing train- ing to Town employees allowing them to manage GIS data and create maps specific to their department's needs. The Town has invested significant resources in its GIS and has put it to good use. However, we have only begun to tap the potential of such a sys- tem. Further investment will be required to build upon the existing system and expand its use by staff and the public. Channel 18 Yarmouth's public access channel, channel 18, remained busy in 2005 recording and televising a variety of public meetings and events. The part-time camera operators record and replay Annual Town Meetings, Special Town Meetings, special events and informational meetings, as well as, weekly meet- ings of the Selectmen, Board of Appeals and Con- servation Commission. In addition, the staff con- tinually updates the Bulletin Board, which provides notice of a variety of public meetings, events, emer- gency and safety issues for Yarmouth residents. The part-time camera operators do their best to pro- vide a quality broadcast possible with the resources and equipment available. Next year we will be up- grading the Channel 18 cameras in order to improve broadcast quality. 102 Employee Training Information technology training for employees is essential for staff to be effective in managing in- formation and providing services to the public. Employee training is done in several ways. One im- portant prerequisite for this is standardization. This past year training was provided on the Microsoft Office XP suite, the LaserFiche Document Manage- ment System and the MUNIS Financial Manage- ment System for all Town employees. Additionally, ESRI Geographic Information System Software training was provided to departments requiring the expanding access and use to the Town's GIS data. The response to the training was positive and the benefits were realized immediately. Due to this suc- cess, in the coming year technology training will continue to be provided for employees. Next year will see continued training offered in Microsoft Of- fice XP Suite, ArcView GIS Software, MUNIS Finan- cial Management System, ESRI GIS and LaserFiche. Web Page The objective of the Town of Yarmouth web page is to provide Yarmouth residents and the general public with pertinent and up to date information. 103 The page provides viewers with a schedule of events, Committee and Board agendas and min- utes, a listing of Town departments, downloadable forms, a map of the Town with pertinent landmarks, a phone directory, answers to frequently asked questions, links to resources and much more. Be sure to visit the site at www.yarmouth.ma.us. The web site has undergone some significant changes this past year. Departments such as Health, Com- munity Development and Public Works have revised their web pages to provide a wide variety of infor- mation for Town residents and the public. We have made considerable progress in improv- ing information systems in recent years but there is still much to be accomplished. I look forward to an exciting year with many new and innovative projects. Finally, I would like to thank the employees in the Town for their patience and cooperation while we implement these projects. Respectfully submitted, Shawn Maclnnes Director of Information Technology RECREATION COMMISSION In calendar year 2005, the Yarmouth Recreation Commission welcomed new members Kim Cooney, Mike Karras, and Adrian Bogle to its ranks. It is ex- pected that the addition of these talented people should bring a new level of energy and wealth of ideas to the commission. In the past, the Commis- sion has supported broad based representation of all segments of the community in terms of its com- position, and believes that, as nearly as possible, this balance has been maintained over time. The needs of the community are what the Recreation Division strives to accommodate, and a diverse board is a basic step in this process. The Recreation Commission actively supported the town's adoption of the Community Preserva- tion Act (CPA) and has representation on the Com- munity Preservation Committee (CPC). Commis- sioner, Jim Carroll, is the Recreation Commission's voice on the CPC and has done a commendable job in the presentation of vital recreation interests. Through the efforts of the CPC, and with the sup- port of Yarmouth voters, a major land acquisition at Englewood Beach was made possible. This gives the town important access to Lewis Bay and will greatly enhance the town's sailing program, all at no additional cost to the taxpayers. Serious attention must be given to the repair, refurbishment, and renovation of the town's outdoor recreational facilities at Sandy Pond and Flax Pond. With no maintenance budget of its own to speak of, the department has had to run its outdoor pro- grams at these facilities without the resources nec- essary to keep the grounds and especially the struc- tures in a good state of repair. The years have taken their toll, and now many of the outbuildings have declined to critical levels. It is hoped that the com- munity preservation funds will provide an avenue to provide the vital work needed to insure that the physical resources of the town continue to be avail- able for the essential programs historically offered at these sites. There are also health and safety issues which have been brought to the attention to the commis- sion and which it plans to address in the coming months. These issues include whether groups which access Yarmouth beaches and parks should be re- quired to obtain a permit, and whether public recre- ation facilities (Le., parks and beaches) should be smoke free. Yourinputon these questions is welcomed. The Recreation Commission continues to iden- tify an indoor recreational facility among its highest priorities. Our total lack of indoor facilities and de- pendence on school facilities for our indoor pro- grams has been exacerbated by the leaking roof at the Mattacheese Middle School which, in times of heavy rain, has rendered the gymnasium unuseable. We have worked closely with the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District in the past regarding the availability of school facility for town recreational programs and the school district has been under- standing and accommodating in its making the school gyms available when not in use bythe schools themselves or other outside groups. In ad- dition to meeting programming needs, a commu- nity center will promote the causes of fitness and health, and enhance the quality of life of people of all ages. We are sorry to report that our Assistant Direc- tor, Doug Mason, has resigned. Doug brought a considerable amount of talent and expertise to our recreation programs and will be sorely missed. We thank him for his years of dedicated service. We welcomed Nicholas Cacciolfi as the new Assistant Director in early September. We hope everyone will join us in wishing Nick all the best in his new position. Once again, we acknowledge the many volun- teers who have served the people of Yarmouth as coaches, program coordinators and volunteer staff. Without their dedication, sacrifice and service, the various programs in which they participate would not be possible. Their volunteerism, for which we are most grateful, continues to be a core commu- nity resource. Lastly, we take this opportunity to recognize the many valuable contributions of our Recreation Di- rector, Pat Armstrong; our Assistant Director, Doug Mason; and the entire office staff in particular, Donna Howard. Respectfully submitted, Michael F. Stone, Chairman Deborah Clark, Vice Chairman John Serijan James Carroll Don Dorchester 104 Donna Clifford Kim Cooney Mike Karras Adrian Bogle MUNICIPAL FINANCE FINANCE DEPARTMENT 2005 has been an exciting but very challenging year. Implementation of the Munis financial software has led us to develop the alignment of business priorities and technology. The year was consumed with conversion decisions and weaving Yarmouth's strategies into solid building blocks to secure the best solution for future integration. Understanding the procedures and identifying key issues were the first steps in creating the manageable and depend- able infrastructure the software would undertake. The best place to start for immediate returns was the core financial package by linking departments, connecting processes and simplifying end to end. The journey for integration has just begun for Yarmouth. The building of a solid software founda- tion has been constructed with the financial core being implemented in April of 2005. The successful conversion of data is credited to Peter Horne, Yarmouth's Financial Technician. Peter spent countless hours mapping the data con- version, focusing on business strategies and poli- cies to insure the software alignment. His tireless dedication to details has reaped a smooth, balanced conversion. This completed the first paved mile of Yarmouth's journey to integration and tying infor- mation sources together. Our group training staff (Faye, Mimi and Peter) headed by Assistant Town Accountant Cheryl Jacobson, held over twenty comprehensive train- ing sessions for Yarmouth's department employees on the new system. My sincerest thanks and ap- preciation to my staff for their dedication, exper- 105 tise, creativity and the enormous effort put forth this year. Implementation of Munis' tax module was phase two of the Finance Department plan. Assessor Matt Zurowick and Collector Shirley Sprague were the lead project managers on the conversion of the tax data. They are credited in making existing infrastruc- tures work harder in a more integrated way. As a team their departments were able to produce the FY2006 tax bills and collect them. Thank you Matt and Shirley for personally committing your scarce leadership time, energy and attention for the tax conversion - Great job! 2005 was a very challenging but productive year. Reducing complexity and creating a centralized system for finance and taxes can be exceptionally challenging. But the potential rewards are signifi- cant! This is why the Finance team has made it their number one priority. By moving to a single informa- tion system for finance and at the same time imple- menting consistent data and technology standards, Yarmouth will be able to continue to integrate other modules from this solid foundation. I would like to thank not only the Finance De- partment staff but all Yarmouth's employees for the commitment, enthusiasm and effort put forth throughout the Finance software conversion.

My sincere appreciation to Assistant Tax Collector Jaye Anne Kesten, Elsie Raneo, Robin Benjamin and Sheelagh Brockway. Respectfully submitted, Shirley A. Sprague Town Collector 113 TREASURER Activity continues to increase and present its challenges with many varied activities in the treasurer's office including learning and using the new accounting package (MUNIS). With higher in- terest rates and maintaining the very conservative investment policy, we have exceeded the budgeted investment income. Several meetings were held with the Investment Committee who assists the Trea- surer in the formation of the investment policies. Once again, the tax bills were mailed in a timely manner; hence, the Town did not have to borrow in anticipation of tax revenue. The Treasurer has continued to be very aggres- sive in collection of tax title accounts. The remain- ing uncollectible tax title accounts are in foreclo- sure process. Payment arrangements can be made on tax title properties thru the Treasurer. I would like to thank my staff for their dedica- tion and hard work as they serve the employees and residents in a caring manner. I appreciate the opportunity to work for the Finance Director, Town Administrator and Selectmen of the Town. Thank you for your support.

Randall Sherman: Our resources have been challenged during 2005 by an ever increasing emergency run volume, and an increasing demand and necessity for fire prevention inspection activity driven by our chang- ing community and many changes in the laws. The multiple storms during 2005 including the two snow storms in January and February, and the snow hur- ricane in December taxed all of public safeties re- sources in this community, but reinforced the co- operation and assistance all of the departments provide to each other during these periods of crisis. Our EOC is activated quickly in these situations and provides the needed coordination and communi- cations to meet any challenge. New Apparatus for W. Yarmouth In 2005, we received a new Pierce Foam Pumper that has been designated Engine 45 and assigned to the temporary W. Yarmouth Station. This pumper replaces a 30 year old Maxim Pumper from our capi- tal replacement plan, and relocates the 1986 pumper back to Station 1 as a reserve pumper. The new Engine is also fully equipped for medical Advanced Life Support when first due at any medical call while the W. Yarmouth ambulance is busy. Station 3, Engine 45 129 New Equipment in Yarmouth Port Citizens of Yarmouth Port and S. Yarmouth have had the opportunity this past year to witness the training and implementation of a new style rescue boat for the department, a Personnel Watercraft (PWC) with attached rescue sled or rescue basket. The multiple training sessions for all department personnel and personnel from the Department of Natural Resources took place in Follins Pond, at both ends of Bass River, in Nantucket Sound, and the Bass Hole area. This water rescue PWC replaces a 41 year old, 13 foot Boston Whaler. It is housed in the Yarmouth Port station and will be the first res- cue watercraft to respond to our many shallow wa- ter areas. It is also fully capable in the open waters of Cape Cod Bay and Nantucket Sound during day- light hours. Personnel Changes The following new members were hired during 2005 to replace personnel who retired, or left this department to work for other fire departments: FF/ EMT Kai Raiskio, FF/EMT Dale Starr, and FF/EMT Lou Sarkas. Retiring as a result of Line of Duty dis- abilities were FF/Paramedic Paul Robertson and FF/ Paramedic Paul Riker, both after many years of ser- vice to the citizens of this community. They were honored for their service at a retirement party held in the fall of 2005. FF/EMT Hal Marczely and FF/ EMT Peter Halliday have both become FF/Paramed- ics after completing up to two years of training, studying and testing. Lt/EMT Mark Foley left YFD to serve as the new Deputy Chief of the Eastham Fire Department. Lt/Inspector Matthew Bearse re- turned to shift work as a LtlParamedic. Shift Com- mander Captain Robert E Kelleher Jr. has chosen to serve in the capacity of Captain/Inspector work- ing with Deputy Chief Peter Raiskio in the multiple tasks of Fire Prevention and Inspections. As a re- sult, Lt/EMT Roupen Baker has been promoted to the position of Captainrand Shift Commander. FF/ Paramedic Gerard Walsh has been promoted to the position of Lt/Paramedic. Statistics The statistics provided below are generated from multiple sources, the most important of which is the extra effort put in by Captain Alan T. Bowles in extracting them from our Firehouse° software which is used for record keeping of all incidents, inspections, and training of this department. The department responded to 5,917 emergency calls in 2005, an increase of 6.3% and the busiest department in Barnstable County this year. There were 1,219 fire or hazard related calls and 4,698 calls for emergency medical assistance and care. Simultaneous calls for service amounts to 39% of our call volume. Having personnel and equipment in all three stations provides us with the ability to handle no less than three simultaneous calls of vary- ing types with an immediate initial response. Of the emergency medical calls, 3,743 patients were trans- ported to a medical facility by YFD generating am- bulance receipts of $1,532,051.19 placed into the Reserve for Appropriation Account, which supports a portion of the departments operations, and 100% of our capital needs. Yarmouth Port residents transported 591 South Yarmouth residents transported 1,390 West Yarmouth residents transported 1,018 Non-residents transported 744 Emergency medical calls by type of call Medical = _=2,974—_ -- Motorvehiclecrashes 293 Other trauma 476 In Barnstable County, all departments share re- sources to help each other during times of multiple simultaneous calls, Targe incidents or both. We re- sponded to our neighbors' calls for assistance 72 times for fires or medical emergencies. In turn they provided assistance to Yarmouth 53 times for fire or emergency medical calls. The fire and hazardous situation calls are bro- ken down as follows: 125 Fires of all types 6 Ruptures or explosions 164 Good intent calls, smoke, steam or hazard- ous release investigation 468 Calls generated by alarm systems, mali- cious or accidental alarms, bomb scares, sprinkler system activations without fire, carbon monoxide alarms 199 Calls for emergency services: lockouts, utility problems or hazards, unauthorized burning, assist other agencies 20 Severe weather damage 10 Special incidents, investigations 130 Fire losses for 2005 are listed as $637,695 with property saved listed at $10,110,759. : . The reports of Fire Prevention, Public Safety Education and Training follow my report. It is with the support and cooperation of these and all mem- - bers of this department that make us successful in providing these vital public safety services to the citizens of this community. Fire Prevention Report from Deputy Raiskio: "To identify and reduce hazards in the Town of Yarmouth through education, inspections, code enforcement, and fire investigation." This year brought another change in the Fire Prevention Division, with Lt./Inspector Bearse go- ing back as a shift officer, and Captain Kelleher com- ing into Fire Prevention as the Capt/Inspector, bring- ing his 28 years of experience and education to this critical position. Changes in the laws and fire pre- vention codes have increased our work load con- siderably on behalf of the publics' safety. Chapter 304 Acts of 2004 has added a number of new regu- lations that we need to enforce. Section 74 now requires that the Fire Chief and the Building Com- missioner sign off on the liquor license of a premise, with all safety violations corrected before annual renewal. Section 26G 1/2 requires a fire sprinkler and alarm system for all existing and new places of assembly over 100 persons that meet the criteria of a nightclub, bar, discotheque, dance hall, or similar entertainment. This provision alone has resulted in many hours of research, training and inspections being conducted to determine applicability to each facility. It also requires that those places as previ- ously designated but not over 100 person capacity will have to install a fire sprinkler and alarm system if they exceed their rated capacity 2 or more times during the year, plus a $10,000 fine for the first and second offense, and the loss of all licenses on the 3'd offense. The new law requires the fire depart- ment to have mandated training to issue violation citations, and requires the town to have a trained Municipal Hearing Officer. All training has been ac- complished and the Hearing Officers appointed. Chapter 123 Acts of 2005, Nicole's Law, requires carbon monoxide alarms in all residential buildings that burn fossil fuels, or have fossil fuel appliances in them including fireplaces. This will be enforced by the fire department at the sale of the property, which will increase the time required to do each in- spection, and add many inspections to an already overloaded schedule. It also requires all rental units to have carbon monoxide detectors installed at the beginning of any rental period. The Cape Cod Hos- pital construction project continues requiring mul- tiple joint meetings and inspections involving the Yarmouth and Hyannis Fire Departments and the Barnstable and Yarmouth Building Departments as we share joint jurisdiction on the additions and reno- vations. For well over 20 years the Fire Prevention staff of YFD has consisted of the Deputy Chief (who also has other duties and responsibilities) and one Captain or Lt/Inspector. The workload and quantity of required and recommended inspections for the publics' safety have increased exponentially during that time. In simple terms we have reached the point of critical mass. We need another Lt/Inspector as recommended by the MMA Fire Department Study Report of 2001!!! With the help of Captain Bowles and the volunteers from the Senior Center, we are continuing the modernization of our filing and com- puter systems. Finally, we could not have accom- plished all this with out the great cooperation from the other town departments, especially Building, Natural Resources, Police, Health, the Senior Cen- ter, and the volunteers. Education: The education team has provided excellent fire and life safety presentation programs to our citi- zens and visitors again this year with the majority of time being volunteered by our members, or spon- sored by single year grants. The following programs were provided: preschool fire safety, babysitter safety, child safety seat installations, hands on fire extinguisher use, CPR/AED, senior safety, teen safety and others. We were able to hold a Fire and Life Safety Open House this year in partnership with Papa Ginos. 131 SAFE Program Report from FF/P Robert Reardon: During the Fire Prevention month of October we have presented Freddie the Fire Engine, our public Fire Safety presentation to five Elementary Schools, four public and one private (St. Pius X Elementary Ladder 41 opens up. School). This presentation is paramount to the health and safety of the children of our community. Our education staff teaches Stop, Drop and Roll - Call- ing 911 -Home Hazards and Fire Escape plans with the help of an interactive reduced scale Fire Engine named Freddie. Captain Robert Phillips (the creator and voice behind the scenes and who is the foun- dation of this life saving program) has retired as a CaII Firefighter Captain on January 1, 2006 after 30 years of service, but vows to continue to contribute his personal time in the support of Freddie the Fire Engine Fire Safety Program. We have begun our annual presentation of "The Dangers of Ice" pro- gram (which stresses ice skating only at ice skating rinks and teaches self -rescue techniques in the event that a child falls through the ice) to the Mattacheese Middle School. We have new props, thanks to the help from Mrs. Colgans Art class at Mattacheese Middle School. Our Elementary School version of the "Dangers of Ice" presentations, are scheduled for the end of January 2006. FF/EMT Kevin Enright has been a Certified Child Safety Seat Inspector/Installer for over 3 years hav- ing conducted any requested inspections during this period. He is now joined by FF/EMT'S Cory Kittila, Scott Smith and Ronald Napolitan, all graduates of a 40 hour Child Car Seat Certification Course. They have been presenting the importance of correct child seat installation to new parents at the Cape Cod Hospital and are organizing "appointment only" schedules for parents wishing to have their own child car seat inspected. This program has been sup- ported from a Federal Grant for Fire Prevention and Safety, the Massachusetts State S.A.F.E. Grant and the Yarmouth Fire and Rescue Department Admin- istration staff. Through grants and fundraising ef- forts we have previously provided child safety seats and booster seats to families in need, but currently do not have any funding source to continue this part of this program. As public safety educators for the Town of Yarmouth we look forward to working with our corn- munity in 2006. 132 Investigation Report from Captain Michael Caruso: The investigation team for the Yarmouth Fire Department is made up of Captain Michael Caruso, Lt. Philip Simonian, Lt. Paul Holmquist, and Lt. Matthew Bearse under the supervision of Deputy Chief Peter Raiskio. We had a very successful year in determining the origin and cause of most fires that occurred in town. Lt. Paul Holmquist and Lt. Matthew Bearse completed training seminars and have been a great addition to the team in assisting with our investigations. The team approach has proven to be very effective and efficient and allows us to seek assistance when needed from the Yarmouth Police Dept, the Mass State Fire Marshall's office and the ATF. Most common fires area result of cooking incidents, aged wiring and electrical components, and the misuse of open flame or discarded materials (smoking being'a pri- mary cause). We have had an increase in fires that were the direct result of unattended candles burn- ing. The public should be extremely cautious with their use of candles in the close proximity of com- bustibles and should never leave them burning un- attended. There have been many incidents in which we have found smoke detectors not in working or- der or not in place, which is of great concern. As a quick safety note, it is imperative that the citizens remember to keep their smoke detectors in proper working order at all times to reduce the chance of life and property damage and be aware of the dan- gers of carbon monoxide poisoning. Enforcement Report by. Captain/Inspector Robert F. Kelleher Jr.: In June, at the beginning of my 28th year of ser- vice I became the Fire Prevention Officer. It has been a -very full and rewarding experience so far. I have enjoyed meeting and working with many residents and business people in this community. The previ- ous Inspector, Lt Matthew Bearse had begun some great practices that I was able to continue and capi- talize on. He had developed some great relation- ships among the participants working on the DY High School renovations that have continued and are helping us achieve the best possible outcome in a project that requires at least 2 visits per week. The upgrading to current standards of the Com- mercial Cooking Hoods and Fire Suppression Sys- tems has been the focus of one of the projects be- gun earlier, which has progressed and is nearing completion. Monitoring, maintenance, and upkeep of fire protection systems and extinguishers in com- mercial occupancies have increased. This will pay dividends and we hope reduce potential future losses in these properties. We are increasing the computerization of many of the forms and permits issued, which streamlines the time spent by the Fire Alarm Operators and the public in issuing and re- ceiving permits.

Todd: EMS New equipment has been purchased through several sources. A New "Med Tech" Ambulance was placed in service at Station 1 in S. Yarmouth. New equipment was also purchased to equip the truck once delivered. This is budgeted through the Town Meeting process as a planned replacement of the 1998 Ambulance 54. A$600 Child CPR Manikin was donated to the Fire Department by the Yarmouth Chamber of Commerce with our gratitude and thanks. EMT'S and Paramedics can practice CPR, Water Rescue, and search Techniques with this manikin. The Yarmouth Firefighters and Relief As- sociation continues to provide assistance for train- ing and equipment through its fundraising endeav- ors. The Public Access to Defibrillation Program (CPR/AED) has been expanding. We are constantly 133 conducting CPR/AED training and recertification training for all citizens and municipal employees in- volved in this multi-year effort. Several businesses and organizations have purchased Automatic Defibrillators for their facilities and have received training in their use from the members of this de- partment. They are to be commended for their pro- active community involvement. • Bass River. Yacht Club • Irish Village Motel and Restaurant • Capt. Parkers Pub • St. David's Church • Mid -Cape Racquet and Health Club • Planet Fitness Health Club This program exists because of the ongoing generosity of the citizens, businesses and organi- zations in this community with their donations to the YFFRA CPR/AED Fund. YFD budget and capi- tal funding is only used for the purchase of a limited quantity of AED units and their replacement batter- ies each year. All other training expenses for instruc- tors and supplies are covered by donated funds to sustain this life saving program. Training is aimed at the many roles the Fire - Rescue Service provides. In service training is training done while at work, between other duties. All personnel of the depart- ment participate in this "in service" training. The Fire Department had "Live Fire Training" practice at the Barnstable County Fire Academy burn building. This drill involves multiple companies working together to extinguish fires. This was funded by a state safety and training grant and provided to all four shifts and the call firefighters. The call firefighters train two evenings per month in addition to special weekend and academy training courses. All Firefighters completed required training for the New Tower Ladder which is stationed in South Yarmouth. This involved Driver Training, Pump Train- ing, and Arial Operations, an average of over 50 hours per member. Firefighters also attended a one day, Weapons of Mass Destruction Class, which was funded by the Southeast Mass. Regional Homeland Security Council. The training was focused on different po- tential catastrophic events. Firefighters completed orientation and training with a new "Personal Wa- ter Craft" (Jet Ski) for Surface Water Rescue. The Yarmouth firefighters presented a class to Lifeguards and other First Responders on Beach/Sand Col- lapse. This was taught at the Red Jacket Resort in Yarmouth and at the National Seashore in Orleans. Yarmouth's new Tower Ladder 134 This was made possible by a grant from the Mas- sachusetts Department of Public Health, EMS for Children Program. The program was successful and will be repeated this summer. _CERT (COMMUNITY EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM)- ----__ The Fire Department has a program—called;--- Community Emergency Response Team, (CERT). This program is initially funded by grants from the Department of Homeland Security. This program teaches interested people how to help themselves, their family or others during an emergency, until Fire/ Rescue personnel arrive. Our CERT Volunteers have helped at many events this past year. They manned an Evacuation Shelter in Yarmouth on 2 occasions, during a Snow Storm and also during a major Power Outage. Their participation at the Massachusetts Military Reser- vation with Hurricane Katrina Relief Efforts was out- standing. These volunteers help at many other com- munity -events such as the Yarmouth Seaside Festi- val. These community. minded people are also help_- ing with Safety Surveys in the Home for Senior Citi- zens Once they have completed their initial training they attend monthly meetings and additional train- ing and refresher sessions. We are very lucky to have these people as volunteers and greatly appreciate their efforts on behalf of this community. Yarmouth's CERT Program teaches people how to help themselves during emergencies until Fire/Rescue personnel arrive. 135 Co-operation We appreciated a co-operative effort from town departments which helps us continue with progres- sive training. We receive assistance from the Yarmouth Police, Transfer Station, Council of Ag- ing, Health Department, Network Administration, Yarmouth Recreation Department, and other town departments. We acquire vehicles for Extrication Drills with the Jaws of Life. The transfer station al- lows us to use an area of their site to work on these vehicles. We acquire buildings for Ventilation Drills with the New Tower/Ladder and its equipment. People donate their building prior to demolition for us to cut roofs, walls, and practice search opera- tions, which we appreciate. Town Networking al- lows us to provide classroom and power point style training to all three stations via the computer sys- tem. Report from the Station 3 Building Committee Chairman Al Gray: During 2005, this committee met from 1. to 4 times per month to provide the necessary research and information to the Board of Selectmen leading towards the construction of a replacement for Sta- tion No. 3 to serve the Town from the W. Yarmouth area. Funding was approved for a preliminary de- sign to be paid from the Reserve for Appropriation Ambulance receipts account. RFQ's (Request for Qualifications) were issued for the required "Own- ers Project Manager" and "Design Architect." The 136 Maguire Group was selected as the "Owners Project Manager" who immediately assisted the commit- tee and Town in selecting the Carell Group as the Design Architect. They have met with the Commit- tee many times in reviewing the needs assessment to develop a preliminary design for Station No. 3 with construction options for consideration by the Board of Selectmen. In multiple presentations before the Board of Selectmen the proposals and options were deemed too costly due to other Town and School system financial needs. The Committee, Owners Project Manager, and Design Architect were charged with designing a station of reduced size incorporating the "critical needs" with a construction cost cap of $4,000,000. Construction options to meet previously identified needs were to be included in the revised preliminary design. The critical emergency response functions will be served by the proposed new build- ing. The Chairman of the Capital Budget Commit- tee and a member of the Board of Selectmen have been appointed as liaisons to this committee dur- ing this final design project. We look forward to bring- ing this project to the citizens for construction fund- ing during 2006. Respectfully submitted, C. Randall Sherman Fire Chief POLICE DEPARTMENT Throughout 2005, the Yarmouth Police Depart- ment continued to take on many new challenges as we continue to provide a high caliber of police services to our residents, our business community and our visitors as well. The men and women of our Department remain committed and attentive to the responsibilities entrusted upon us. In 2005, we con- tinued to closely monitor crime trends and emerg- ing patterns through crime analysis. As demands for police services continued to increase we became creative with the utilization of technology and did enhance our use of the mobile data reporting sys- tem within our patrol vehicles. Our staff on dozens of occasions in 2005 used this system to identify wanted individuals and were proactive in prevent- ing crime by removing a person with outstanding warrants from the streets of our community. At the same time we were able to locate and identify many repeat offenders. Our staff responded to 29,375 calls for service in 2005 and I appreciate the exemplary level of pro- fessionalism displayed by our staff in responding to the needs of the public. As Chief of Police, I am gratified by the confidence that our citizen's place in their Police Department. We also appreciate the patience of our citizen's who at times have experi- enced a delayed police response due to calls for service being "stacked" or prioritized due to limited shift resources. We once again are requesting that our elected officials and citizen's support our re- quest for five additional patrol officers and the pro- motion of three current patrol officers to the rank of Sergeant in our FY 07 Budget. Our affiliation with the Cape Cod Law Enforce- ment Council has again in 2005 improved the train- ing of our police officers. The CCLEC has also proved to be extremely valuable with the sharing of a number of critical assets between the fifteen po- lice agencies within our region. These assets include such specialty areas of crisis negotiation, special response teams and traffic crash reconstruction. The CCLEC concept has also proved extremely valu- able in the pursuit of outside funding opportunities for police specialty areas. This group was formed to promote greater public safety and strengthen the protection of citizens within local communities through the sharing of resources. In 2005, as in past years, we have aggressively 137 pursued outside funding opportunities to augment our Town resources. I am impressed with both the creativity and strong desire that our staff displays in pursuing grants to support our policing efforts. This effort has become increasingly more difficult due to the near elimination of federal grants for policing in 2005. We did receive funding in the following areas. $54,530 $84,000 $3,150.00 $13,110.29 $55,000 $1,000 • $12,773.07 Community Policing Grant Cops In Schools Federal Bullet Proof Vest Gov. Hgwy Safety Drug Task Force Emergency Management Emerg. Mgmt Homeland Security (Purchase DNR Radios) Breathalyzer $1,000 We continue to expand our community policing philosophy in all that we do in policing in Yarmouth. We are committed to being a visible partner with the public and recognize that communication with everyone in our community: is something we con- tinually foster. Our Community Policing Programs for 2005 were: • Auto Theft Prevention: With assistance from the Massachusetts. State Police and the Governor's Auto theft Strike Force—the Yarmouth Police Department conducted a highly successful auto glass -etching program at Yarmouth Police Headquarters. The pro- gram is designed to prevent auto theft and reduce insurance costs. • Adopt -A -School: Patrol Officers, who in ad- dition to their regular duties, routinely visit their respective school and teach children, parents, and teachers a variety of safety subjects. • Citizen Police Academy: In a 12 -week pe- riod, citizens are given a first-hand experience in all phases of policing in Yarmouth. We held our 13th session and graduated our 350th citi- zen. • Chip Program: The Yarmouth Police Depart- ment continues to support the Freemasons of Massachusetts with the Child Identification Program. The Chip program has been a huge success in Yarmouth with hundreds of chil- dren participating. • Neighborhood Crime Watch: Neighborhood groups were formed and taught ways to help protect their properties and report suspicious activity. • Business Watch: With the assistance of the Yarmouth Area Chamber of Commerce, Yarmouth businesses receive weekly crime prevention tips and notification of police re- lated activities. We hosted a highly success- ful crime prevention seminar designed to edu- cate and protect our businessmen and women. • Family Fun Day: With the assistance of the Town of Yarmouth Recreation Department – this annual event takes place at the Old Town House Park and features fun and games for families with demonstrations from the Yarmouth Police K9—Bike Patrol—and SRT Units. • Motel Watch: With the assistance of the Yarmouth Area Chamber of Commerce, Yarmouth motels receive weekly crime pre- vention information and notification of police related activities. We also hosted another suc- cessful crime prevention seminar specifically. tailored to meet the needs of ourlodging in- dustry. • Operation Un -Gun: Citizens are encouraged to turn in unwanted firearms to the Yarmouth Police Department, which helps remove fire- arms from the community and assist in police department training. • Code Enforcement Impact Team: A team of town inspectors and police officers work together to educate our community and en- force town by-laws designed to improve troubled neighborhoods. • Probation Ride -Along: Local probation of- ficers team up with our officers and conduct visits to the home of persons currently on pro- bation to insure safety and compliance with court mandated terms. • Sex Offender Tracking: We locate and con- firm all registered sex offenders living within our community. The Yarmouth Police Depart- ment has received special recognition from local and state officials for leadership in this area. • Mountain Bike Patrol: Police officers con- ducted specialized patrols in neighborhoods, shopping plazas, parks, and beaches while riding mountain bikes. Bikes allow officers better access to patrol special areas and help citizens get to know the officers in their area. • Traffic Enforcement: Our officers conducted thousands of vehicle stops to help educate the public and enforce motor vehicle laws. With assistance of a grant from the Governor's Highway Safety Bureau, specialized patrols were conducted to protect our citizens from impaired drivers, speeders, and other danger- ous activities. We also assisted in the state- wide "Click It or Ticket" and "You Drink and Drive You Loose" safety campaigns and were featured in several statewide public service media announcements. • Volunteers in Policing: Twenty-five Yarmouth residents provide volunteer assistance to our police department in a variety of ways de- signed to allow our officers more time to con- duct direct law enforcement duties. Our VIP program is recognized by the United States Government and continues to be a tremen- dous improvement for our officers and our citizens. • School Resource Officers: Our long-stand- ing partnership with our school district was bolstered with the award of a specialized fed- eral grant in which Yarmouth Police Officers are assigned on a full-time basis to Dennis - Yarmouth Regional High School and Mattacheese Middle School. The officers build relationships with student, parents, and staff and help protect the future of our community. • Special Response Team: Specially trained and equipped officers conducted several high- risk arrests and illegal drug eradication raids. • Student Internship: Students from Dennis - Yarmouth Regional High School and Cape Cod Community College participate in weekly activities with Yarmouth Police officers at po- lice headquarters and in our community. • YPD TV: Yarmouth Police Officers are fea- tured in a weekly television show helping to educate our community in crime prevention and a look at our agency's role in the com- munity. During 2005, we continued to identify and moni- tor certain motels engaged in long term rentals which have been the focus of increased criminal activity and calls for service in recent years. This commu- nity policing initiative featured regular visits to the 138 identified motels to review ongoing problems and encourage preventative measures, and periodic re- ports to the Board of Health as the licensing au- thority. With the assistance of the Board of Health and cooperation from motel management, we have seen a very substantial reduction in criminal activity and calls for service at these properties. The investigation of illicit drugs and related crimes continues to be a priority for our Criminal Investigation Unit. Throughout 2005, we continued to work diligently to address this problem with the support of the Drug Enforcement Administration and collaboration with the Barnstable Police Depart- ment. Regretfully, this problem is now a dilemma throughout our society. We have identified domestic violence as a fre- quently reported serious crime within Yarmouth. We have been committed to using all available resources to address this issue and are now focusing on pre- vention, public education as well as enforcement to deal with this dilemma. As a community resource, we remind victims that we are ready to assist do- mestic violence victims and are networked with a variety of support and advocacy groups. The De- partment is forming a Domestic Violence Team to critique and improve our response to this frequent call for service. It is the goal of this team to review our agency's response to the abuse victim's needs and to provide the best possible resources to solve the problem. Our Police Department webpage at www.yarmouthpolice.com was viewed thousands of times during 2005. Our residents can e-mail our Department directly through this site and can ac- cess a form to report speeding complaints. We also have listed information on the Sex Offender Regis- try on our Web Page as well as links to other agen- cies. We invite you to visit our site for information regarding the services and special units of the Yarmouth Police Department. We continued active participation in the South- eastern Massachusetts Homeland Security Advi- sory Committee, as well as the Regional Local Emer- gency Planning Committee. Our staff conducted several emergency preparedness seminars for our residents during 2005. The special emphases of these presentations were designed to have our resi- dents prepare for weather related emergencies, lengthy power outages as well public notification of evacuation. Residents should be reminded of the 139 valuable information that is available on local ac- cess Channel 17. In closing, we wish to thank our Volunteers in Policing for their service during 2005, our fellow members of Town Government for their superb level of cooperation, and the men and women of our agency for their constant commitment to profes- sional policing in Yarmouth.

submitted, James D. Brandolini, C. B. O. Building Commissioner BOARD OF HEALTH The year 2005 again witnessed the continua- tion of many Board of Health programs designed for protection of the environment and public health. Ongoing programs include inspections con- ducted by the Health Division Office staff of restau- rants, retail food stores, motels, cabins, camps, public and semipublic swimming pools and whirl- pools, and rental housing units, along with respond- ing 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 division office also per- formed soil analyses to determine suitability of build- ing lots. The Health Division Office staff reviewed all Building Division permit applications to ensure ad- equacy of the septic system as required by State law, prior to the issuance of any building permit. The staff also attended weekly Commercial Site Plan Review meetings to ensure that all new construc- tion and renovations met with all health codes, i.e., septic systems, groundwater protection, etc. The Board of Health continued implementation of the town's Water Resources Protection Study (I.E.P.- 1988) recommendations through inspections and administration of the Underground Gasoline Stor- age Tank Regulation, Hazardous Waste Regulation, Subsurface Sewage Regulations, and the Nitrate - Nitrogen Loading Regulations. The department of- fered public assistance, as related to septic system maintenance and location, along with requiring de- velopers of large scale projects to submit Environ- mental Impact Reports to ensure protection to the town's public water supply wells. The Health Division Office continued to over- see four grants during 2005. The first grant was from the State Department of Public Health for tobacco control, to offer education and cessation programs, control smoking in public places indoors, and con- duct compliance inspections. The second grant was for assistance to moderate income families for pumping their septic systems. The third grant was for assistance to moderate income families for re- moval of underground fuel storage tanks. The fourth grant was for the assistance to families for the re- pair of septic systems. Earlier in the year, the Board of Selectmen asked the Board of Health to prepare a recommendation regarding fluoridation of the town's water supply. The Board of Health held a public informational meeting with a representative from the Massachu- setts Department of Public Health on April 24, 2005. The Board then held public hearings at the Yarmouth Senior Center on June 20, 2005 at 4:00 p.m., and on July 18, 2005 at 7:00 p.m. At all three public meetings, the clear sentiment of the majority of the public present was that the town should not add fluoride to the drinking water. While several pro- fessionals (dentists, nurses) spoke in support of the program, opponents from Yarmouth, as well as neighboring towns, also appeared. At none of these meetings were more than fifty (50) people present, thus there was no way to judge the opinion of the general electorate. The Board was presented with considerable documentation, both pro and con, on the issue of fluoridation. Individual Board members sought ex- tensive additional scientific, legal, and comparative data on the subject. Copies of these documents are available at the Health Division Office. Although there are many reasons to favor fluo- ridation for all segments of the population, there are also several arguments against it. The Board is also concerned with the implication of fluoride in our sole source aquifer and its possible affects on the drink- ing water of abutting towns to our west. [MGL Chap- ter 111: Section 8C, "The provisions of this section shall not apply if two or more cities are supplied water from the same sources..."] At the Board of Health meetings of November 21 and December 5, 2005, the Board discussed the fluoridation question. The Board of Health does not recommend fluoridation of the drinking water in our community at this time. RABIES CONTROL PROGRAM Amy Von Hone, Assistant Health Director, coor- dinated the Rabies Control Program. Yarmouth's first rabid raccoon was discovered in September, 2004 and the disease has continued to spread throughout most of our neighborhood communities over this last year. 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. There are numerous strains of rabies that are species specific that exist through - 146 out the world and this country. For example, there is a skunk strain and a fox strain of rabies that ex- ists in the mid -western United States. Bat rabies has been endemic in this state for many years. Al- though certain animals are more sensitive to a par- ticular strain of rabies, the disease can be transmit- ted between species which includes pet cats and dogs, and even to humans. Because the virus con- centrates 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. Cape Cod has been the center of a massive rabies vaccine baiting program sponsored by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and the Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine, and more recently, the United States Department of Agriculture, Wildlife Services. The original goal of the program was to prevent rabies from crossing the Cape Cod Canal, and from infecting our wildlife population, by placing baits containing a single dose of oral rabies vaccine along the Cape Cod Canal to create a "vaccine barrier." This "vaccine barrier" had proven successful for ten years. However, in the winter of 2002, the barrier was broken on the main- land side of Bourne when a skunk tested positive for rabies. The first case of rabies east of the Canal was discovered in 2003, also in Bourne. In response to the barrier break, numerous emer- gency vaccine baiting events have taken place from the Canal east to the Town of Welffieet. Various agen- cies, including Tufts University, the United States Department of Agriculture, the Senior Environmen- tal Corps, the Barnstable County Department of Health and the Environment, the United States Coast Guard, and town personnel and volunteers, were responsible for the distribution of the vaccine. Yarmouth, over the course of this year, has con- ducted one massive baiting blanketing the entire town with the help of Health Division personnel in- cluding Board of Health members, Natural Re- sources Division personnel, and the various agen- cies listed above. At the request of Tufts University and U.S.DA, the Yarmouth Division of Natural Re- sources, again volunteered to be the temporary stor- age and distribution point for the baiting events on Cape Cod. The majority of baits were distributed by hand along every town roadway, and those ar- eas impossible to reach by foot or vehicle were ser- 147 viced by a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter. Special rec- ognition is warranted to the many faithful volunteers of the Senior Environmental Corps who have been the backbone of the vaccine baiting operations over the last decade. Despite the baiting efforts over the last two years, the number of animals testing positive for rabies continues to rise in Yarmouth. Because of the serious nature of this disease, all town depart- ments involved have made the extra effort to re- spond to inquiries as quickly as possible to prevent any further exposures to both humans and pets. Each potential rabies case takes an extraordinary amount of time and effort from all departments in- volved starting with the initial inquiry to the final case closure. Often times, because of pet exposures and required quarantines, these cases will remain open for months. This has resulted in a strain on our de- partment resources, as we try to maintain our daily services. Additionally, because of the overwhelm- ing number of animals Cape -wide submitted for testing to the State Laboratory, only those animals involved in human or pet exposures were tested immediately for rabies. All other non -exposure ani- mals are currently being stored for testing at a fu- ture date, therefore, the data listed below is incom- plete. A tally of the animals tested in Yarmouth is listed below: 2005 Tallies Animals Total 203 Cats 3 Dogs 1 Fox 5 Raccoons 140 (50 tested positive for rabies: 36% of raccoons tested) Skunks 37 (10 tested positive for rabies: 27% of skunks tested) Squirrels 2 • Rabbits 0 Opossum 5 River Otters 2 (1 tested positive for rabies) Woodchuck 1 (1 tested positive for rabies) Bats 7 (1 tested positive for rabies) The Health Division continues to work very closely with the Division of Natural Resources and Animal Control in coordinating the capture and test- ing of all suspect animals as outlined in the Town Policy developed by the Health Division in response to the rabies epidemic. The Health Division currently coordinates testing of all suspect animals which is performed by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, in addition to relaying pertinent infor- mation and data to all affected parties of the rabies incident. Recognition must also be given to the High- way Division for their continued efforts to quickly respond to reported road kill, as this is another av- enue for potential' exposures. The Health Division continues to be available for town personnel train- ing, and has numerous informational pamphlets and brochures available to the public. As part of our ongoing effort to educate the public about rabies, informational brochures have been distributed throughout Town to each library, the Yarmouth Se- nior Center, and the Yarmouth Area Chamber of Commerce. The Health Division website hosts a webpage with information on rabies for general public viewing. Additionally, staff from both the Health Division and the Natural Resources Division have been very active in the Cape Cod Rabies Task Force, which has been instrumental in the distribu- tion and sharing of information among other Cape towns, and State and Federal agencies. Our Town Policy has been requested by other towns as a model for their own policies, in addition to our de- partments providing guidance to other towns for the purposes of personnel training and response. This year, as part of our continuing educational efforts, a "Rabies Awareness" program was created by Karl von Hone of the Natural Resources Division and Amy von Hone of the Health Department. The program was presented to approximately 1,200 el- ementary school children, over 75 town personnel from various departments, and numerous town resi- dents through public seminars and private asso- ciation meetings, in addition to regular showings on our public access network. Our efforts were re- warded by the Yarmouth Area Chamber of Commerce's 2005 Public Service Award in No- vember, in addition to the Massachusetts Munici- pal Association 2005 Kenneth E. Pickard Munici- pal Innovation Award this December. The Health Division is grateful to the various town departments who have provided the neces- sary services to protect the public at large against this dangerous disease. But, most importantly, the Health Division is especially grateful to the Division of Natural Resources and Animal Control who have been a key component of the town's rabies response team. Their timeliness, knowledge and profession- alism have made a potentially dangerous environ- ment much safer for our Town's citizens and pets. Additionally, we wish to express our appreciation to Animal Inspector Charlie Kelliher (resigned No- vember 30, 2005) who did a tremendous job with the animal quarantines and truly turned the program around for our department with the increase in workload brought on by the rabies epidemic. We wish him well with his new adventures. As always, the Health Division emphasizes the importance of vaccinating all cats and dogs, as re- quired 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 Division Office or Division of Natural Resources immediately in the event of a potential rabid exposure (human or pet) or the sighting of a strangely acting animal. PREVENTIVE HEALTH PROGRAMS In conjunction with the Barnstable County De- partment of Health and Environment, additional ongoing Board of Health preventive health programs included monitoring the thirteen Human Service agencies, with a total budget of $90,505.00, that provide various community health services to the townspeople. Those Human Services are as follows: • Capeabilities (formally Nauset, Inc.) • Salvation Army • Independence House • Sight Loss Services, Inc. • Consumer Assistance Council • Cape Cod Human Services, Inc. • AIDS Support Group of Cape Cod • Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Cape Cod • Visiting Nurse Association of Cape Cod, Inc. • Legal Services for Cape, Plymouth & Islands, Inc. • Cape Cod Child Development (Head Start Pro- gram) • Cape Cod Council on Alcoholism & Drug Depen- dency, Inc. • Hands of Hope Outreach Center (Cape Cod Coun- cil of Churches) 148 All of the Human Services provided a greater share of services than monies appropriated. The difference in appropriation was made up by free care through agency fund raising or through State or Federal grants. All agencies are requesting an in- crease in appropriations to maintain the services provided to Yarmouth residents. The following is a brief description of each of the thirteen Human Ser- vice agencies: 1. Legal Services for Cape, Plymouth & Islands, Inc. This agency administers the Elder Law Project, which provides free civil legal representation to Yarmouth residents over the age of sixty, in the ar- eas of landlord -tenant relations, elderly housing, utilities, nursing home quality of care, health care, government benefits, disability, and some wills.

Independence House Independence House, established in 1979, is the Cape's only resource center for battered women, their children, and rape and sexual assault survi- vors. A program of services is provided to women who have been threatened with or have experienced physical, emotional or sexual abuse. The town appropriation was $11,000. 8. Visiting Nurse Association of Cape Cod, Inc. The V.N.A. provides health oriented instructional care and services to individuals and to entire fami- lies in the home or other appropriate locations. The agency has been serving Yarmouth residents for over 75 years. Comprised of nurses, home health aides, thera- pists and social workers, the skilled V.N.A. staff works closely with the Health Division Office to pro- vide the highest quality and most advanced home care available today. On-going programs under the Board of Health include: health counseling/screening sessions, such as diabetic, hearing and cholesterol; flu clinics; maternaVchild care visits and adult home health assessments; also monthly immunizations for pre- school children are held at the V.N.A. office. Health promotional programs included information and encouragement to first time mothers. The services provided by the V.NA. are as fol- lows: • Office Visits • Special Programs • Medical Social Work • Office Immunizations • Visits for MaternaVChild Health • Children for Preschool Immunization • Hours for Health Counseling/Screening • Hours for Seaside Festival Health Fair • Hours for Flu Clinic and Pre -filled Syringes • Investigation of Communicable Diseases The bimonthly blood pressure and diabetic screening clinics at town hall were attended by 270 people.

HEALTH FAIRS AND CLINICS The Board of Health offers monthly health pre- ventive programs, such as Preschool Immuniza- tions, Diabetic Screenings, Nutritional and Adult Health Counseling Clinics, along with Blood Pres- sure and Hearing Tests on a bimonthly basis at Town 150 Hall. Additional or expanded services are continu- ally under review by the Board. Again planned for the upcoming year are the annual Flu Clinics (ap- proximately 2,000 people), multiple educational pro- grams, Skin Saver, Breast Mammography, Choles- terol Screening and Glaucoma Clinics. ' The Health Division Office staff, in conjunction with Health and Safety Training Associates, held Heimlich Anti -Choking Clinics for food service per- sonnel. In conjunction with the Yarmouth Restau- rant Association, the Health Division Office staff of- fered a ServSafe course for food service establish- ments. To better educate the growing number of Brazilian food service workers in Yarmouth, the Health Division, in conjunction with the Yarmouth Restaurant Association and the Barnstable County Department of Health & Environment, also offered a Food Safety Seminar translated into Portuguese. The Health Division Office also held a series of pool safety certification courses for motel person- nel, which included C.P.R. and Standard First Aid. BATHING BEACHES WATER QUALITY The Massachusetts Department of Public Health adopted a new regulation which became effective in April of 2001 requiring bathing beaches to be tested weekly. The Department of Public Health's intent is to protect the health, safety and wellbeing of the users of bathing beaches. The Yarmouth Health Division, in conjunction with the Barnstable County Health Department con- ducted multiple testing at 16 salt water and 6 fresh water bathing beaches on a weekly basis from Memorial Day through Labor Day. A total of 359 samples were collected. Over the course of the summer, four beaches were posted closed due to elevated bacteria levels caused by runoff from heavy rains. All beaches were reopened within 24 hours after successful retests. WEST NILE VIRUS ENCEPHALITIS PROGRAM Carl Lawson, Hazardous Waste Inspector, co- ordinated this program for the 2005 season. West Nile Virus (WNV) encephalitis is a rare dis- ease caused by a virus. In a small percentage of people, the disease can become serious, even fa- tal. The virus that causes WNV encephalitis, which had not been identified in the United States before the summer of 1999, occurs naturally in Europe, Africa, and Asia. It is not known where the U.S. vi- 151 rus came from. The virus grows in birds, and it is transmitted from bird to bird and from bird to hu- mans by mosquitoes. Horses bitten by mosquitoes carrying WNV can also become sick. Mild WNV infections cause fever, headache and body aches, often with a skin rash and swollen lymph glands. More severe infections can cause headache, high fever, neck stiffness, stupor, disori- entation, coma, tremors, convulsions, paralysis and, sometimes, death. There is no treatment for WNV infection. About 7% of people who are infected with the virus die from it.: However, doctors can treat the symptoms of WNV encephalitis: WNV is spread only by mosquitoes that are in- fected with WNV. People and horses that have WNV infection cannot spread the disease. There is no evidence that a person can get WNV from handling live or dead infected birds. Still, you should avoid bare-handed contact when handling dead animals, including birds. If you must handle dead birds, use gloves or double plastic bags. The risk of getting WNV encephalitis is highest from late July through September. The virus is spread by adult mosqui- toes, which are killed by frost in the fall. There is no WNV vaccine for people or horses. The only way to protect yourself is to keep mosqui- toes from biting you. Follow these steps every sum- mer if you live in or visit an area with mosquitoes: • Avoid outdoor activities after dark (between dusk and dawn), if possible, as this is the time of great- est mosquito activity. • If you must be outdoors when mosquitoes are active, wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants. Use mosquito repellent that contains DEET (the chemical N-N-diethyl-meta-toluamide) and follow the directions on the label. DEET can be toxic if overused. Never use DEET on infants. Avoid us- ing repellents with DEET concentrations above 15% for children and with concentrations above 35% for adults. Cream, lotion or stick formulas are best. Avoid products with high amounts of alcohol. • Take special care to cover up the arms and legs of children playing outdoors. When you bring a baby outdoors, cover the baby's carriage or play- pen with mosquito netting. • Fix any holes in your screens and make sure they are tightly attached to all your doors and windows. To reduce mosquito populations around your home and neighborhood, get rid of any standing water that is available for mosquito breeding. Mos- quitoes will breed in any puddle or standing water that lasts for more than four days. Here are some simple steps you can take: • Dispose of metal cans, plastic containers, ceramic pots and other water holding containers that have collected on your property. • Pay special attention to discarded tires that may have collected on your property. Tires are a com- mon place for mosquitoes to breed. • Drill holes in the bottom of recycling containers that are left out doors, so that water can drain out. • Clean clogged roof gutters. • Turn over plastic wading pools and wheelbarrows when not in use, and do not allow water to stag- nate in birdbaths. • Aerate ornamental pools or stock them with fish. Keep swimming pools clean and properly chlori- nated. • Use landscaping to eliminate standing water that collects on your property. The Health Division worked closely with Cape Cod Mosquito Control. Potential wet areas were identified and treated. The Health Division received 11 calls on dead birds meeting the criteria for test- ing. Eight (8) birds were tested, with all results com- ing back negative. The Health Division expects the collection and testing of birds to continue, and will be working closely with the State Department of Public Health and with Cape Cod Mosquito Control. TOBACCO CONTROL PROGRAM In 1994, Yarmouth became one of seventeen Cape towns participating in the Regional Tobacco Control State Department of Public Health Grant, which is administered by the County Health Depart- ment. This grant is funded by the State through the cigarette tax. After several public meetings and joint meet- ings with the Barnstable Board of Health, the Yarmouth Board of Health adopted a regulation pro- hibiting smoking within restaurants, lounges and bars, effective April 3, 2000. The towns of Barnstable and Dennis also enacted similar regulations. The Massachusetts Smoke -Free Workplace Law went into effect on July 5, 2004. As a result, all fifteen Cape towns prohibit smoking in public places. Sev- eral compliance checks were performed in the past with no violations observed. The Health Division continues to work with the Cape Cod Regional To- bacco Control Program in offering education and smoking cessation programs. The Board had previously approved regulations that prohibit smoking in indoor public places, such as retail stores, office buildings; ban cigarette vend- ing machines to prevent under age access; and re- quire a license to sell tobacco products. In 2005 there were 42 licenses issued to establishments to sell tobacco products. The division worked with Cape Cod Tobacco Control in conducting 73 com- pliance checks in 2005. Four (4) establishments were issued warnings; one (1) establishment was issued a fine. Yarmouth tobacco retailers achieved 94% compliance with the regulations preventing under age tobacco retail sales. SEPTIC SYSTEMS PROGRAM The State Title V Septic Regulations that took effect in March of 1995 continue to inundate the division office with inquiries, requests for deep and perc tests, plan reviews, permits and final septic inspections. The office at one time had 50 people waiting for perc/deep testing, along with a three week wait for review of engineered septic plans. Many of these were for the installation of septic sys- tems for Real Estate sales, new construction, con- struction/renovation, and septic repairs. To meet this need the division engaged the County Health De- partment to assist in witnessing deep and perc test- ing. The Board has delegated authority to Health Division staff to approve septic repair variances "in house" after review of engineered plans for maxi- mum feasible compliance, to expedite the permit- ting process. The staff reviewed and approved 101 septic variances under this criterion. The new Title V Regulations also require the division office to re- view and comment on septic system evaluation re- ports on every Real Estate sales transaction. There were 805 Septic Inspection Reports submitted to the office for review between January and Decem- ber 2005. 152 Subsurface Sewage Disposal Systems - Breakdown of Information: Building Foundation Height Variances/Review .... 0 Variances -Maximum Feasible Compliance 101 Private Sewage Treatment Plant Reports 60 Final Sewage Installation Inspections 722 Engineered Sewage Plans Reviewed 1,111 Deep Hole/Percolation Tests 731 Repair Permits Issued 405 New Permits Issued 59 Field Visits 136 Starting in the year 2000, the State Title V sep- tic regulations affected people living within the town's Zone II drinking watershed areas. New con- struction and additions/renovations increasing sep- tic system flows are now required to size the septic system at 110 gallons per bedroom per 10,000 square feet of land. This section of Title V is for the protection of the drinking water. With this new sec- tion of the regulation in effect, the Board of Health rescinded their 1986 Nitrate Loading Regulation, which placed a restriction on the number of bed- rooms and lawn area. The Board of Health continues to monitor the first approvals in the State, from the Department of Environmental Protection, to allowan alternative septic technology installation. A Bioclere Self -Con- tained Waste Water Treatment Plant that provides additional treatment was installed at a residential location on Mercury Drive and at the Super Stop & Shop.

Continuing implementation of this program includes: septic system maintenance pamphlets, consulta- tions, written and audio-visual materials, along with sewage system location cards and pumping histo- ries that are provided by the Health Division staff to assist homeowners in locating their septic system for routine maintenance pumping. As required by State law, the Health Division Office review s all Build- ing Permits to determine the adequacy of the sep- tic 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 ensure protection of the town's ground- water quality. As a condition of receiving Federal and State assistance for the construction of the septage treat- ment 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 Aquarion Services Company were obtained to work under the Director of Health to implement the Inspection and Maintenance Pro- gram for the towns of Yarmouth and Dennis. 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 particularly important to keep the solids from being carried over into and clogging the leaching system. The rate of accumulation of solids is primarily re- lated to the intensity of use (i.e., how, many people areusing the septic system; is the septic system used all year or only seasonally; is a garbage grinder used - not recommended), so the time interval be- tween pumpings will vary for each home. There- fore, the regulation requires that all systems be pumped every four years or have a FREE inspec- tion by town agents to determine if a septic pumpout is needed. HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES 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 pro- visions. This requirement was a result of an E.P.A./ Massachusetts Department of Environmental Pro- tection grant of monies to the town for construction of the Septage Treatment Plant. This grant encour- ages assistance to low and moderate income resi- dents in complying with the regulation. 153 The statistics for grant awards are as follows: . 3 Very Low Income 5 30% of Median 3 Denied 0 Septic Installation/Repair 9 Oil Tank Removal 1 Septic Pumping 10 Low Income PRIVATE TREATMENT PLANTS The Board of Health and the Health Division, in conjunction with the Board's consultant, Wright - Pierce Engineers, continued to monitor and review engineered plans, and monthly operational and maintenance reports, along with the Department of Environmental Protection (D.E.P.), for private sew- age treatment facilities. Several meetings were held for review of the treatment plant's groundwater dis- charge permits along with hydrological and envi- ronmental 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.

The licensed hazard- ous waste firm of Jones Environmental Services collected 58 drums containing paints, thinners, pes- ticides, and miscellaneous chemicals that were re- moved off -Cape to a licensed hazardous waste fa- cility. Carl is also responsible for monitoring those sites listed as Confirmed Hazardous Waste Sites by the Department of Environmental Protection (D.E.P.). Carl's duties also include monitoring the clean-up actions of these sites. In the past these clean-up actions included the use of soil vapor extraction systems, which involved the use of air stripping tow- ers. Other clean-up methods involved the removal of contaminated soils and the installation of ground water monitoring wells. HOUSING PROGRAM This program is administered by Brian Heaslip. Housing rental units are monitored and inspected according to the 1976 Town Rental Bylaw. All rental properties are required to be registered annually with the Health Division. Brian works closely with the Yarmouth Police Department in enforcing the town's Anti -Noise Bylaw and the Occupancy Overcrowd- ing Bylaw. Brian also enforces the Massachusetts Department of Public Health housing regulations. Brian is a member of the town's Code Enforcement Impact Team formed in 1998. The Team consists of representatives from the Health, Police, Fire and Building Departments.

As in prior years, 2005 saw the Health Inspec- tors continue to work toward a more harmonious environment and public health standards through their attendance of, and their involvement in, meet- ings, seminars, conferences, sponsored by the State Department of Public Health, the Massachusetts Environmental Health Association, the Massachu- setts Health Officers Association, Barnstable County Health Department Seminars and by serving on various state, town and county committees. The Director of Health's appointment by the governor continues, for the seventeenth year, on the State Board of Registration for Certified Health Officers. 155 The Board of Health held twenty-one (21) meet- ings during 2005. A total of 45 hearings or variance requests were brought before the Board as follows: a. 1 Variance request from Town or State Sewage Regulations for septic system repairs; b. 6 Variance requests from Town or State Sewage Regulations for construction of a new septic sys- tem for new homes or businesses; c. 1 Meeting with Human Service Agency (Visiting Nurse Association); d. 1 Tobacco Control Hearing: 1 Retail sale of tobacco product to minor — 2"d offense - fine; e. 5 Fluoridation Hearings/Discussions; f. 7 Variance Request Hearings: 1 Stable Regulations 1 Swimming Pool Regulations 1 Outdoor Cooking Regulations 1 Poultry Regulations 2 Massage Regulations 1 Food Service Regulations; g. 7 Emergency Preparedness updates; h. 7 Hearings regarding motel/long-term rental issues; i. 3 Workshop sessions regarding Board of Health issues: Rabies Nitrogen Loading Aquifer Protection Coastal Embayment Mosquito Control Eastern Equine Encephalitis West Nile Virus Green Head Flies j. 3 Staff updates; k. 8 Miscellaneous hearings. Thanks go out to all the staff, Amy Von Hone, Brian Heaslip, Mary Alice Florio, Peggy Rose, Carl Lawson, and Philip Renaud. Thank you to David Flaherty, the former Health Inspector, who took a job with the Town of.Wellfleet in the Health and Conservation Departments. Thanks also to our Summer Intern Sarah Carchia. We would also like to give a special thank you to Charles H. Kelliher for his past year of service as the Town's Animal In- spector. 156 BOARD OF HEALTH - CALENDAR YEAR 2005 Number Total Fees Licenses/Permits Issued Fee Issued Collected Percolation/Deep Tests $ 50 379 $ 18,950 Cabins/Inns/Lodges $ 50 42 2,100 Motels $ 50 63 3,150 Food Service: 0-100 Seats $ 75 98 7,350 Over 100 Seats $150 43 . 6,450 Non -Profit Organizations $ 25 20 500 Common Victualler $ 50 125 6,250 • Continental Breakfast $ 30 38 1,140 Catering/Commissary $ 75 2 150 Catering/Temporary Food $10/event 17 170 Retail Stores: Less than 50 sq.ft. $ 45 21 945 Less than 25,000 sq.ft. $ 75 41 3,075 More than 25,000 sq.ft. $200 3 , 600 Wholesale $ 75 5 375 Frozen Dessert $ 35 14 490 Mobile Food Vendors $50/truck 0 0 Ice Cream Trucks $35/truck 2 70 Vending Machines $ 20 1 20 Sewage Collectors $ 50 40 2,000 Refuse Collectors $100 13 1,300 Board of Health Hearing Fees $ 50 7 350 (Only when abutters notification is required) Funeral Directors $ 50 4 200 Poultry $ 25 6 150 Stables $25/$5 each add'I horse 15/44 595 Swine $ 25 1 25 Massage, Personnel $ 25 each 34 850 Massage, Business $100 16 1,600 Tattooing, Personnel $ 50 each 4 200 Tattooing, Business $150 1 150 Swimming Pools $ 75 each 103 7,725 Vapor Baths/Whirlpools p $ 75 each 37 2,775 Septic Disposal Installer's License $ 75 88 6,600 Title V Septic Permits: New $100 63 6,300 Repair $ 50 362 18,100 Call Back Fees/Fines - 1 100 Trailer Park $ 50 1 : 50 Xerox 20 cents 553.70 Tanning Facilities, per Tanning Device $ 50 54 2,700 Tobacco Sales $ 25 40 1,000 Name Change $ 10 2 20 Subtotal Licenses/Permits Issued 1,850 $105,128.70 Hazardous Waste 21 E Fees $ 50 2 100 Hazardous Waste Licenses $125 157 19,625 Underground Storage Tank Registrations $ 5 0 0 Rental Housing Permits $ 30 2,579 77,370 Grand Total Licenses/Permits Issued 4,588 $202,223.70 157 ADDITIONAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT STATISTICS Inspections Performed: Number Inns, Motels, Cabins, Camps, Lodges 40 Food Catering Apps.

Allaire, DPW Director 2005 came in like a lion and went out more fe- rociously. We began January of '05 with snow on the ground and followed that up with the Blizzard of '05 on January 22, more snow than anyone without a ski slope could ever want. The blizzard was so devastating it took a week to clear all the snow. DPW employees worked tire- lessly to clear the roads so residents could escape the confines of their homes. Fortunately, the State/ Federal governments declared an emergency, which allowed the Town to recoup most of the $124,000 cost associated with the Blizzard Thanks to Mona Solmonte who along with the Highway Division staff filed all the necessary paperwork for the reimburse- ment. Then in December we experienced 'Thunder Snow", which happened after a morning of rain and left 70,000 NSTAR customers without power and plenty of trees down everywhere across the Cape. So much for golfing every winter on Cape Cod. Many thanks to the dedicated DPW employees who deal with all these weather related emergencies year in and year out for the citizens of Yarmouth. On the roads this year, the Willow Street Im- provement Project at Exit 7 of Route 6 began in July. Considering we began the public input and design phase of this project in 1996, spending countless hours in acquiring Right of Ways to widen Willow Street, it was good to see the work begin. The trees were cleared and poles relocated when the Massachusetts Highway Department (MHD), the contracting agency, was informed by the road build- ing contractor, P.A. Landers, that additional fill ma- terial was required to complete the preliminary work on the roadway. Since the fill material added $60,000 to this $2.5 million project, several months passed with no work being accomplished until the change order authorizing the additional fill was approved by MHD. The approval was received in late Novem- ber but then the weather did not cooperate. The contractor began hauling fill to Willow Street on December 13, 2005. Specifications require that no work be performed between Memorial Day and Labor Day, which would significantly interrupt traf- fic in this busy traffic corridor. Station Avenue was also improved in two phases under the direction of the DPW Engineering Division. The results were spectacular and we are very pleased with the final product. Congratulations to Engineering and Lawrence Lynch Corporation, who completed the Phase II work on time and un- der budget. Keyspan has announced plans to install a new high pressure gas main on Whites Path, North Main Street, (Whites Path to Great Western Rd.) Great Westem Road and Highbank Road headed over the Bass River to Dennis and beyond. They claim they need to install this 12" steel pipeline some 12,000 feet from their LNG tank to Highbank Road by No- vember/December of 2006 to satisfy heating sea- son demands. Yarmouth and Dennis are trying to convince Keyspan to use the Railroad Right of Way in lieu of tearing up our streets, but I am not hopeful of this outcome. The DPW Highway Division undertook a sub- stantial construction project by extending a multi use path from the Senior Center to Winslow Gray Road, a distance of approximately one mile along Forest Road. The construction was undertaken with- out formal plans and the work was under the su- pervision of the Highway Division. The plan was to clear and grade the path, place the initial layer of bituminous concrete, which is what you see in 2005, correct any drainage issues in the Spring of 2006 and put the final layer of bituminous concrete next summer. The work to date is impressive and can only be appreciated by walking the entire length. Our goal is to eventually extend the path to Route 28, which will provide a connector to the Cape Cod Rail Trail, which currently passes through the Dis- posal Area. We are also planning to extend a side- walk from Buck Island Road to Long Pond Drive, which will intersect this path on Forest Road pro- viding more connectivity for children on bikes and pedestrians, especially those trying to get to the Rail Trail or our parks. The extension of the Rail Trail through Yarmouth became a reality with the passage of Federal Trans- portation Funding called SAFETEA-LU. Senator Kennedy and Representative Delahunt earmarked enough money to extend the Rail Trail through Yarmouth. Once extended, the Rail Trail, with con- necting feeder paths, will connect our three major recreational facilities (Flax Pond, Old Town House Road Park and Sandy Pond Recreation Area) such 160 that they will be safely accessible by foot or on bi- cycle by young and old alike, with minimum inter- ference with traffic. The goal of the Rail Trail exten- sion is also to connect to the Intermodal Center in downtown Hyannis. Thanks to our Federal Legisla- tors for their diligent efforts to obtain this funding. Similar funding, as the funding for the Rail Trail Extension, was obtained six years ago to develop Packet Landing on Route 28 and Bass River. The parcel adjacent to the marina was acquired and will be converted to a landscape gateway for Yarmouth. The firm of Vanasse Hangen, Brustlin (VHB) was hired to develop plans for this parcel and you may have noticed one of the buildings was demolished by the DPW Highway Division and the material carted away and disposed of by the DPW Waste Management Division. The remaining two buildings will also be demolished and a park area created. The structure, known as the Cellar House, was in- spected by Cape Cod Commission staff and found to have no historic fabric remaining. Part of VHB'S contract calls for the design only of a replica of the Cellar House building, which may be constructed with potential supplemental funding from the Com- munity Preservation Act (CPA). This replica will be used by the Department of Natural Resources to house personnel and provide rest room facilities and a meeting room. The architecture will resemble the original Cellar House based on photos available of this former structure. The demolition and park con- struction work will probably occur in the Fall of 2006. The DPW has been working with the Energy Committee along with the Massachusetts Technol- ogy Collaborative (MTC) to investigate wind energy potential behind the schools and Yarmouth Police Department off Higgins Crowell Road on DPW Wa- ter Division property. MTC was going to loan the Town a wind monitoring tower and erect the tower on a site cleared by the DPW in the Spring. We origi- nally understood this area to be outside the ap- proach areas of the Barnstable Airport but later found the Federal Aeronautics Administration (FAA) had issues with the wind generator heights being proposed. The FAA has stalled progress of any kind as we investigate what the FAA height restrictions are in this area and what types of wind generation equipment fits within those restrictions. We expect to move forward early in 2006 on installing the wind monitoring tower or move to a site with less FAA restrictions. 161 The DPW Building Committee continued to meet and refine the site plan for a consolidated DPW at the corner of Buck Island Road and Town Brook Road. CDM's John Kissida refined and adjusted the site plan and attempted to satisfy zoning require- ments. Once the plan was finalized in draft a meet- ing was held in November with all the abutting neigh- bors invited prior to submission to Site Plan Review and the Zoning Board of Appeals. While the major- ity of this building project will not be constructed for 8 -10 years due to funding restraints, the DPW will pursue as soon as possible the construction of a Targe, more environmentally friendly building to. store and mix our roadway deicing materials (salt and sand) to be located towards the rear of the prop- erty. The DPW is also well represented on the Inte- grated Water Resources Planning Committee (IWRPC) where we are planning for wastewater in- frastructure better known as sanitary sewers. As you may be aware the Town has been collecting and analyzing water quality in our three embayments, Lewis Bay, Parkers River and Bass River under the guidance of the School of Marine Science and Tech- nology, UMASS, Dartmouth. This water sampling will gauge affects of Nitrogen on our embayments and in 2007 give us the amount of Nitrogen, which must be removed to recreate a healthy environment in our three estuaries. In the meantime we have used conventional wastewater planning techniques and have determined priority areas for sanitary sewers. In the Captain's Village and the Hyannis Park areas we had our consultants prepare preliminary plans for sanitary sewers with associated costs for their installation including treatment and disposal of ef- fluent. The substantial cost for these installations led to discussions of how the Town would plan to pay for this large expense. Who will pay and how will be developed in discussions with the Board of Selectmen and through public outreach in the com- ing year. The Yarmouth -Dennis Septage Treatment Plant (Y D STP) found itself too popular this summer try- ing to service the entire Cape. The plant took in sep- tic waste, which exceeded the daily design capac- ity of the plant, requiring the plant to stop accepting waste. The Y D STP Board of Management met and decided once the plant took in 70% of its daily ca- pacity, it would stop accepting any waste from any community, except Yarmouth and Dennis, in affect, reserving the remainder of the daily capacity for Yarmouth and Dennis residents served by septic waste haulers. Towns like Sandwich and Mashpee, which have made no attempt to address disposal of septic waste, were affected by this policy. Engi- neers are currently reviewing plant operations to insure that the maximum capacity of the YD STP is being utilized. My thanks to all the citizens of Yarmouth for their patience during the Blizzard of 2005 and all the DPW employees who worked to clear the massive amounts of snow, which had drifted to 14 feet in some places. We look forward to another produc- tive year in 2006. Engineering Division Richard P. deMello, Town Engineer The Engineering Division, during 2005, worked towards completing several ongoing projects, as well as beginning a variety of new projects. Our pri- orities included the Roadway Management Program (RMP), drainage improvements, and groundwater related flooding study implementation. The follow- ing highlights are for the projects we continue to work on or have completed. The Engineering Divi- sion participated through field work, design, super- vision, and/or oversight on: Station Avenue Improvements - Phases 1 & II: We continued to oversee both construction phases of this $1.9 million project which was sub- stantially completed on time and within budget. Lawrence -Lynch Co., Inc. (the contractor for Phase 11 from Fawn Road to Wood Road) was publicly com- mended by the Board of Selectmen for their timely and professional work during busy months on this the second most traveled road in Town. Packet Landing Improvements - The Engi- neering Division continued to survey and design the proposed site improvements for this Town owned site. Field data collection made it possible for us to prepare existing condition plans, building demoli- tion preparation, utility plans, easements for drain- age, and parking lot layouts. Multi -Use Path -The survey crew spent many hours clearing brush and locating bounds to stake along the abandoned railroad bed for the layout of the proposed continuation of the multi -use path through Yarmouth. Six Tots were evaluated for pos- sible use as parking Tots along the path. Survey details of the Sandy Pond Recreation Area were added to the base plan to connect other pathways that have been created throughout the Town. Willow Street Improvements - We continued to work with the Mass Highway Department and the traffic consultant (MS Transportation) on the pro- posed improvements to Willow Street in West Yarmouth. The Town Surveyor worked diligently on the land takings and entrance relocation to the Yarmouth Camp Grounds to accommodate these improvements. We also worked with the local utili- ties to make the transition for the relocation of ser- vices in that area. Phase II Storm Water Management Project - This project continued with the Town Engineer at- tending meetings and staying abreast of EPA re- quirements. In cooperation with the Town of Den- nis, several construction grant applications were prepared and submitted to the State's Coastal Zone Management (CZM) Office for the construction of drainage improvements along Bass River. We were recently notified that the two Towns were awarded a $133,500 grant for this work. The required annual report was submitted to the EPA and DER Crab Creek Culvert Replacement - The de- sign consultant, VHB, prepared and submitted the initial draft plans of the proposed culvert replace- ment design. Once revisions are made, we will be- gin the permitting process for this project. Shore Road Culvert Replacement - Last year we received a grant from CZM for technical assis- tance for the design of a replacement culvert under Shore Road. After several false starts, the CZM's consultant has recently begun the design process in earnest. Keveney Lane and Highbank Road Bridge Improvements - Bridge evaluation and design con- tracts were signed with VHB for proposed improve- ments at these two bridge locations, and VHB has begun the evaluation process. We are working in cooperation with Barnstable for the Keveney Lane bridge and with Dennis for the Highbank Road bridge becauLle. we share responsibility for mainte- nance of the bridges with our neighbors. Proposed DPW Facility - Field survey work continued at the location of the proposed DPW fa- cility which is being planned on the current High- way Division property on Buck Island Road. Pre- liminary design plans have been prepared and a public meeting with abutters has been held. 162 Forest Road Multi -Use Path—This project was constructed by the Highway Division, with the sur- vey and design help of the Engineering Division. The installation of drainage facilities and the final course of pavement are planned for next year. We assisted in varying capacities on many spe- cial projects throughout the year, which included the following: • Worked with the Mass Highway Department (MHD) on the installation of a crosswalk at the Friday Club on Route 6A in Yarmouthport. • Dunkin Donuts and Wendy's worked with the Town to complete a Traffic Impact Study on the traffic signals at the Station. Avenue and Old Town House Road intersection following construction of their new facilities. • Worked with Shaws and the MHD on pro- posed improvements to their shopping plaza on Route 28 in South Yarmouth. • In cooperation with the Police Department, completed a Speed Study and a Truck Exclu- sion Study on Long Pond Drive as requested by abutters. • The Town Surveyor worked towards an agree- ment between_the-Town- and -the -Riverway Restaurant to resolve parking issues in the area as well as relocating the road right-of- way (layout) of Pemberton Road. • The Mill Pond Village development on Camp Street required our attention as work pro- gressed. Issues included working with devel- opers and contractors on water easements; construction of the acceleration/deceleration lanes; minimizing project impacts on Camp Street; and, repairing damaged drainage fa- cilities and pavement. • Engineering personnel inspected the road and drainage construction in a new residential sub- division in Yarmouth called Hawk's Wing for the Planning Board. • The proposed site of a new Fire Station at 92 Town Brook Road required many hours of sur- vey and field work to create an existing site conditions plan. • We continued to recommend the purchase of two Tots on Captain Ryder Road needed to help lessen a groundwater related flooding problem in the area, and were finally success- ful at the fall Special Town Meeting after more than 20 years of effort. 163 Highlights of our ongoing drainage improve- ments are as follows: • Worked with the DPW Director and the abut- ters on Neptune Lane (a private road) to im- prove a severe drainage issue - watersheds were located; elevations determined; designs were prepared and calculated; and, meetings with abutters were held. • Worked with MHD on proposed drainage im- provements on Route 28 at Doyle's Restau- rant, Mill Lane parking lot, and Packets Land- ing - all related to decreasing road stormwater flow into and improving water quality in Bass River. • Revisited a long time drainage issue on Hun- tington Avenue (a private road) and began working with the abutters to come to a mutu- ally acceptable resolution. • Prepared drainage designs at 40+ sites for a Townwide drainage construction contract that was recently bid and awarded to the lowest bidder, Robert B. Our Co., Inc. of Harwich at a cost of $730,000. • Designed and installed a drainage solution on-- Lewis Bay. Boulevard to correct a prob- lem that needed immediate attention. • Monitored areas of concern and began plan- ning drainage improvements for this coming year. • Worked with PKM Contractors Co., Inc. on the completion of the drainage construction contract for various locations from last year. The following is a list that includes some of the projects completed in-house for Engineering use as well as assistance to other Town departments: • Reviewed 2004 property line changes re- ceived from the Registry of Deeds and inte- grated them into the Geographic Integrates System (GIS) for the Assessors Division. • Completed preparation of a Town owned land database including acreages, and deed and plan numbers. • Digitized 2004 new buildings and additions into the GIS for the Assessors Division. • Reviewed and revised the Road Cut Policy and Road Opening Permit. • Created ArcView maps of the following infor- mation and placed them on the Town's website for public use: precincts; town owned land; Aquifer Protection Districts; Well field Zone Ils; and, the South Yarmouth Historic District. • Plotted and revised a plan of the "Drug Free Zone" for the Police Department. • Prepared plans of Little Sandy Pond/Horse Pond for the Conservation Office. • Assisted the Recreation Department with planned improvements for the tennis and bas- ketball court refurbishments at Sandy Pond. • Prepared plans and filed a Request for Deter- mination of Applicability (RDA) with the Con- servation Commission for Flax Pond Recre- ation Area erosion problems for the Recreation Division. • Assisted the Recreation Division with acquir- ing property near Englewood Beach for addi- tional recreation facilities, and also worked with the Recreation and Natural Resources Divisions designing boat trailer parking in this area. • Created plans for new Conservation Trail Maps for the Conservation Administrator. • Created ArcView plan for the Conservation Administrator of Town owned land at Chase Garden Creek for the "Pathways to Cape Cod" publication. • Completed field work for the Parks Division for stairway and walkway improvements at Windmill Park. • Prepared ArcView maps for the Fire Depart- ment for their hydrant location program. • Completed field work for proposed new scale house for the Waste Management Division at the Disposal Area. • Worked closely with the Highway Division pro- viding field work needed to locate encroach- ments, to layout roadwork projects, and to assist with many other in-house projects re- quiring our help. • Updated the E911 Street List. • Updated the RMP database including pave- ment maintenance history for 2004.

Finally, we thank everyone for their continued cooperation in serving the Town of Yarmouth. Highway Division James Lefter, Assistant DPW Director. The main functions of the Highway Division are repair and maintenance of our roadways including patching holes, berm installation and repair at the edge of the paved roadway, catch basin cleaning and repair, roadside brush and litter cleanup, road- side mowing and trimming, tree trimming and cut- ting, weed control, sign installation and repair, sweeping, special projects and most importantly, responding to snow and ice conditions throughout the winter. The Highway Division had some personnel changes in 2005 with the hiring of Gary Barsaleau and Oscar Ramirez for Heavy Truck Driver positions, and Mike Benson for the Light Truck Driver/Laborer position. Toni Parent's position of Department Sec- retary has been reclassified to a Principal Depart- ment Assistant to correctly reflect her level of re- sponsibilities. Roadside Maintenance Brush cutting and trimming is done as sched- uled maintenance as well as in response to requests for clearing sight obstructions (308). Roadside mow- ing is done on all major town roads two or three times a season and the division responded to 263 other mowing requests. The number of dead ani- mal calls we responded to decreased this year from 397 to 163. Maintenance of gravel roads (80 calls) is done as needed depending on use and weather and includes applications of Calcium Chloride for dust control. Traffic Signs and Pavement Markings The Highway Division's sign section repairs and replaces various traffic signs throughout the town including the replacement of concrete street name signs with new metal signs. The Sign section re- placed a large number of street signs that had been stolen or vandalized. This section is also respon- sible for continuously monitoring the condition of pavement markings and then re -marking, including crosswalks, stop bars, centerlines and fog lines. Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance The Highway Division has two full time mechan- ics responsible for the repair and maintenance of all the equipment used throughout the year. This includes preventive maintenance, scheduled servic- ing, snow and ice equipment repair (which was a challenge to keep up with last winter considering the severity of the weather and the aging of the ma- chinery) and the installation of new attachments to existing trucks or equipment. When necessary, ei- ther or both of the mechanics may work in the field as heavy equipment operators or truck drivers. Resurfacing/Overlays/Repairs and Maintenance The Highway Division completed grading and paving its annual list of dirt roads, overlayed with Hot Mix, and installed drainage in some of the ar- eas reas most troubled by high water tables and drain- age issues. The Highway workers repaired numer- ous potholes and paved a few larger areas of road- ways using top mix and binder mix, totaling over. 168 tons. The Highway Division was also respon- sible for the Forest Road Sidewalk Project which has become a well -used and appreciated walking route for residents. Over 840 tons of crushed stone was purchased and laid for that project. The last phase of the project, which includes additional drain- age and a final surface course of Hot Mix, will be completed in the Spring of 2006. Snow and Ice The 2004 — 2005 winter snow and ice season was a tremendous challenge to many DPW depart- ments throughout Massachusetts which were not outfitted with the type and quantity of equipment that was necessary to fight -the extraordinary storms. With record snowfall for the season and a State of Emergency to deal with in January, the Highway, Buildings, Grounds, Cemetery, and Golf divisions put forth phenomenal effort at snow fighting with their long hours of sanding and plowing in extreme and at times dangerous conditions. Much effort was directed at clearing snow for emergency rescue ve- hicles. The type and amount of snow was over- whelming to both the town vehicle fleet and also the contracted plow fleet. Employees' skills and endurance were tested all season long. 165 Sanders dispensed over 3900 tons of sand, al- most 1900 tons of salt, 4000 gallons of calcium chloride, and 2500 gallons of anti -icing solution. Tree Department Under the direction of the Tree Warden, Jim Leiter, various trimming and maintenance work was done by the Highway crew. Additional specialized trimming and cutting was contracted out to the pri- vate tree company under contract with the town. Age and severe weather, particularly heavy snow with high winds, took a toll on the town's trees. Large trees and limbs were downed making roads and sidewalks completely impassable at times, creat- ing potentially dangerous situations to residents and property. Both the town crews and the contracted crew should be applauded for their efforts at clear- ing the debris. Sweeping The town along with its private contractor swept the entire 234 miles of paved town roadways, 23 miles of sidewalks and all 33 town owned parking lots: Sweeping required a greater effort and more time this year because of the unusually large quan- tities of sand that were spread over the winter months. The sweeping project was completed be- fore the tourist summer season, by our contractor and with help from the Highway Division sweeper. Requests from other Departments The Highway Division has always helped the different departments in town (Police Department, Golf Division, Department of Natural Resources) with requests related to special projects, emergencies and debris clean-up, and we will continue to assist other departments whenever possible. We would also like to thank all the other Departments for their continued support that has helped us accomplish our work throughout the year. Building and Grounds Division During the past year the town has continued to streamline the different divisions into a more orga- nized and efficient operation. This has been accom- plished by combining the Park Division and Struc- tures. Working together and sharing labor to pro- vide mutual aid to each Division at various times with the many different projects that are undertaken each year. Roby Whitehouse is the Principal De- partment Assistant for this combined division. Building (formerly Structures) Division The Building Division suffered the loss of one of its employees half way through the year and has been building momentum to get back on track, with only a one man team, and his name is Robert Carlson. As usual, he spent many nights plowing with the Highway Division, helping them keep up with the large workload that they experience during the winter months plowing. Also during the winter months, the Maintenance worker from the Town owned golf courses again supplied the man power for us to be able to keep up with the clearing of the walkways at the various Town properties that Building is charged with maintaining. During this time the golf workers also embarked on painting the interior of Town Hall. They did a great job as the hallway walls on both floors of the building were completed. This winter we hope to have them back to repaint the trim work. A new smoke alarm system was installed in the Town Hall; to better protect our employees and the building in which town records are kept. The Building Division worked with an outside vendor to replace three HV/AC units at the Town Hall, as the old units were no longer functioning properly. Also a new Cooling Tower was installed at Town Hall to increase the efficiency of the heating and cooling system. This past winter, the Building Division also worked with a vendor to have the carpets replaced at the West Yarmouth Library, they also assisted in the moving process. . As always, in this mix are the daily requests that we receive from all of the employees. These include the moving of furniture, the replacing of lights, the set-up of meeting rooms and the like. We will con- tinue to do our best to improve the condition of the Town properties and to assist other departments with building issues as time permits Cemetery Division The Cemetery Division is responsible for the care and maintenance of seven Town -owned cemeter- ies. The Cemetery office work is being done at the 507 Buck Island Road Highway building. The Cem- etery division sells and records all deed information 166 for all burials or cremations in the town owned cem- eteries. The work crew has a steady workload of cutting, trimming, fertilizing, and plantings that are ongoing. This Division also takes care of most of its own mechanical needs repairing lawnmowers and other equipment. It is unfortunate that we must report that there was some vandalism at Ancient Cemetery; two up- right markers were stolen, later retrieved thanks to the assistance of the Town of Yarmouth Department of Natural Resources. Another statue of a mother and child were pulled to the ground and vandalized on two separate occasions, to this Division's knowl- edge no one has been found responsible for such damage, it is a very sad thing to report. During 2005 there were 78 burials in town owned cemeteries. Included in this figure are 25 cremation burials. There were a total of 58 lots sold this year with an additional 27 given to veterans at no charge. A sum of $26,536.63 was received from the Walter H. Gifford Trust Fund for improvements and maintenance of the Pine Grove Cemetery in South Yarmouth. During the slower times at thecemetery, labor_ forces are working with other Divisions on indoor repair and maintenance projects, such as painting and small construction work. Grounds (formerly Park) Division In 2005, we had an interesting winter, and we lent a hand to the Highway Division every chance we could, we continue to establish a team effort just as the Highway Division continues to assist in the clearing of seaweed from our Yarmouth Beaches. Grounds and Highway also joined forces in the efforts to give the Sandy Pond Recreation facility a face lift. In the summer and fall of 2005 this facility was given new sod, and new paved drive way . to increase the ease in use to the Town of Yarmouth residents. The Grounds Division would like to thank the following people for there help and support in the past year: Yarmouth Garden Club for the hard work keeping up with the flower beds on various traffic islands and the senior Americorp for their weekly inspections and cleanups at both beaches and parks. The Grounds Division was also involved with the Chamber of Commerce helping with the off shore boat racing, the Senior Baseball Tournament, and the Senior Volleyball reunion at Smugglers Beach. The work crew had a very busy year with main- tenance of all the beaches and parks as well as keeping all beaches manned with booth attendants on a seven day a week work schedule, in addition to opening and closing the beaches, which in the past the Police Department assisted closing the beaches. However with the budget cuts to the Yarmouth Police Department, the Grounds Division added beach closing to their responsibilities. Waste Management Division Robert B. Angell, Superintendent The Waste Management Division oversees the operation of two facilities, the Yarmouth Disposal Area and Yarmouth -Barnstable Regional Transfer Station (YBRTS). Yarmouth Disposal Area The Disposal Area has three different areas within the facility. First is the Residential Drop -Off Area where the residents dispose of their garbage and recyclables. Second is the Compost Area where leaves, grass and small pruning are deposited so they can be composted on site. Third is the Scale Area where anyone, resident or not, can pay to de- posit such items as construction material, metal items, brush, propane tanks and items with coolant in them, such as refrigerators and air conditioners. The Swap Shop, where items can be left for reuse and treasures can be found, added a new sheiterThe Swap Shop had agood season in 2005, with few problems and a lot of satisfied customers. The Swap Shop is run by volunteers and is not op- erated by the town. With technical assistance from the firm of Camp Dresser and McKee we oversee the gas collection system, air quality, groundwater and cap of the land- fill that was closed in 1997. Working with an outside firm who screens all of our compost we were able to give around 1500 yards of compost to residents starting in the first week of April. Each year the compost program ex- pands and in 2005 we added a water gun to keep the yard waste damp during the dry season, which allows the leaves and grass compost faster. 167 In 2005, we began recycling sharps (hypoder- mic needles); and emergency road or marine flares from residents and small business in town. We have been able to remove a substantial amount of haz- ardous wastes from our waste stream with the re- cycling of mercury bearing products; and hazard- ous waste collections, in association with the Yarmouth Board of Health and Town of Barnstable. The Disposal Area is open everyday with the exception of Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, New Year's Day and the afternoon of July 4t. The facility operates with 9 full time and 6 part time employ- ees. It is important for residents to understand that everything brought into the facility must at some time be hauled away to another destination, most of which are off Cape. The following list is the vol- umes that were removed in 2005. Material Quantity Processed Auto Batteries 932 units Brush 1520.13 tons CFC's/HFC's 1,610 units Cathode Ray Tubes 2,569 units Commingled Recyclables 361.36 tons Construction& Demolition ' 9,939.09 tons Corrugated Cardboard 338.96 tons 5 0 Returnables 20.95 tons Fluorescents 3,245 units Household Garbage 9,969.97 tons Magazines 87.65 tons Metals 983.26 tons Motor Oil 3,725 gallons Newsprint & Mixed Paper 877.67 tons Propane Tanks 2.16 tons Textiles 138.58 tons Tires 40.33tons Woodchips 22.29 tons Yarmouth -Barnstable Regional Transfer Station YBRTS receives waste from the residential drop off facilities of the Towns of Yarmouth and Barnstable, as well as commercial waste from all over Barnstable County. This waste is received in a variety of collection vehicles. The facility opened in July of 1991 and has seen a steady growth in tons per year, as the population of the Cape has increased. The YBRTS operates with a staff of 5 full time and 3 part time employees. The facility is open 7 days per week year round with the exception of Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day. During the summer months YBRTS runs ex- panded hours to better serve its commercial cus- tomers. The following is the amount of solid waste in tons YBRTS processed for shipment, primarily by rail, to SEMASS,'a waste to energy plant in Roch- ester MA. During 2005 the Station shipped 96,923.85 tons, using 1,490 railcars and 1,536 trucks. I would like to thank my staff at both facilities for their excellent work and commitment to the town and its residents over the past year. They work well together and move an exceptional amount of waste and recyclables every day. I am proud of what they have accomplished. Water Division Danny J.

I would also like to offer a most sincere thank you to all Town Departments, Agencies and to the Citizens of Yarmouth for their support and assis- tance during 2005. Additionally, we welcome to the Water Division new hires: Sherry Theuret Depart- ment Assistant II; and congratulations to Terry Rasmusen for advancement to Customer Service Supervisor. We pumped a total of 1,410,906,632 gallons of water to the residents of Yarmouth during the year 2005 as compared to 1,458,901,959 gallons for the year 2004. Water production decreased during 2005 by 3.3% that is 47,995,327 less gallons than was pumped in 2004. The peak day was on 7/22/2005 when 10,793,938 gallons were pumped. The peak week occurred the 3nd week of July 2005 when 62.9 million gallons were pumped, which was 8.7 million gallons more than the peak week in 2004. The peak month was July when 249,237,662 gallons were pumped. 388,701 pounds of Potassium Hydroxide was added to the water at our 17 corrosion control fa- cilities to raise the pH to an average of 7.5, thus making the water less corrosive, as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act. Rainfall, measured at our Buck Island Road of- fice was 48.34 inches. This amount of rain equates to 21.45 billion gallons of rain on the Town of Yarmouth. A major accomplishment this year was the paint- ing and inspection of the Sandy Pond storage tank, and the inspection and painting of many of our fire hydrants. The Division continues with our many programs; Inspection and testing of backflow devices, inspec- tion and maintenance of hydrants, regular equip- ment maintenance, and the Water Meter Replace- ment Program. The Division has embarked on the Water Meter Replacement Program wherein all resi- dential water meters are replaced every 10 years and larger commercial water meters are either recalibrated or replaced on a regular basis. This is done to ensure fair and equitable billing to all our customers. Recycling & Solid Waste Advisory Committee Joseph Sarnosky, Chairman The Recycling and Solid Waste Advisory Com- mittee started 2005 following up on the efforts of Ben Paulding (now graduated) and his fellow stu- dents at Dennis -Yarmouth High School and their recycling program. Committee member Julie Bender contacted representatives of the "green team" as she had agreed, to assist the students with the sup- ply of totes for collecting paper in the classrooms. Rob Angell, Waste Management Superintendent and Town member of the RASWAC, had contacted Browning-Ferris Industries, who were able to sup- ply a recycling container and schedule regular col- lection times. The committee also reviewed the efforts result- ing from the approved 2003 ATM Article 40 provid- ing that commercial waste haulers are required to offer recycling services to their customers. To fur- ther their efforts, the committee sent an informa- tional mailing to condominiums complexes advis- ing of the availability of these services. The committee met with the Board of Select- men in February to discuss the charge of revisiting a RA.Y.T./Curbside Collection Program. The intent of the committee's request for approval to proceed from the Board was to research alternative handling options of solid waste and recyclables for long range planning at the Disposal Area. The Board agreed that the committee should study the curbside col- lection alternative. Throughout 2005, the commit- tee has met with Edith DeMello, DEP's Recycling / Solid Waste Planner for the Southeast Region, Bill Owen, Falmouth DPW Director, and P. J. Mullin, Dis- trict Manager of Allied Waste (formerly BFI), to dis- cuss the aspects of curbside collection. Mrs. DeMello has provided us with much information on other cities and towns that have a curbside collec- tion program; Mr. Owen shared his experiences with the Town of Falmouth, who contracts their services out; and Mr. Mullin provided us with the viewpoint from the contractor. The committee's intent is to compare the costs and feasibility of contract/bid curbside collection versus the Town purchasing equipment and using Town personnel to provide services. The committee will continue this study into 2006 by reviewing the operations and costs of the 169 Town of Bourne, who provide their own curbside services using Town equipment and personnel. Committee members will also author a draft bid to meet the needs in Yarmouth, as well as estimate costs associated with this service. Rob Angell continues to keep the committee updated on activities at the Disposal Area and Trans- fer Station. Members work closely with Rob to keep current with recycling issues, markets, and changes that need to be implemented at both facilities to continue with good service to the residents of Yarmouth. The Recycling and Solid Waste Advisory Com- mittee provided the Seaside Festival Committee with Halloween bags that were given to the children at- tending festivities. The bags were designed to en- courage and educate school age children towards recycling. The committee said goodbye to member Judy Pariseau at the beginning of the year. We appreci- ated her enthusiasm and contribution to the com- mittee. We welcomed Andrea Adams in November as a new committee member. Ms. Adams brings much expertise to us through her background in recycling, solid waste, and hazardous waste issues.

Barnstable County. Each town located within Barnstable County is duly represented on fhe As- sembly of Delegates with Delegates elected by the voters in each of the municipalities where they re- side: On Tuesday, November 2, 2004, fifteen Del- egates were elected to serve during the Assembly of Delegates' ninth session for a two-year period. On January 3, 2005, the fifteen Delegates were sworn in by the County Clerk, Scott Nickerson. Tho- mas Bernardo (Chatham) was elected Speaker, Dennis Fonseca (Sandwich) was elected Deputy Speaker, and Diane C. Thompson, not a Delegate, was elected Clerk of the Assembly. The legislative powers of the County are vested in the Assembly of Delegates, and except as pro- vided in the Barnstable County Home Rule Charter, the acts of the Assembly of Delegates are required to be by ordinance. The Assembly of Delegates holds regular meet- ings on the first and third Wednesday of each month at 4:00 p.m. in the Chamber of the Assembly of Delegates, First District Courthouse, Barnstable, MA. A Delegate's vote is a weighted vote based on the 2000 U. S. Decennial Census, with Barnstable having the largest vote of 21.52%, and Truro hav- ing the smallest vote of 0.94%. During 2005, the Assembly of Delegates re- viewed and adopted the Board of County Commissioner's budget for fiscal year 2006. The County continued to experience increased revenues due largely to the activity at the Registry Of Deeds. From the increased revenues of fiscal year '04, the County appropriated $276,000 to towns in the form of cash or in the form of grants and services. The County was also able to fund outside agencies that serve the needs of the residents and the towns in Barnstable County. The County appropriated money for Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Cape Cod & the Is- lands, Cape Cod EDDY, the Neighborhood Support Coalition, the Lower/Outer Cape Coalition, the Boys & Girls Club of Cape Cod, and Ponds & Lakes Stew- ardship. From the increased revenues of fiscal year `05, the County funded Elders at Risk, CAC Out- reach, the Leadership Council, the CCCC Diploma Plus Program, the Clean Team, the Barnstable Se- nior Center Cafe, the Harwich Pond Study and the Water Supply Study for Eastham and Wellfleet. Funds that had been set aside in a Reserve Ac- count for Growth Initiatives were appropriated. Money was appropriated for the Regional Waste- water Implementation Committee. The County also funded the Cape Light Compact for its Municipal Energy Efficiency program. Amendments to the Code of Cape Cod Regu- lations were approved that amended the thresholds for Developments of Regional Impact, that allowed. for the creation of Growth Incentive Zones and De- velopment Agreements. The Assembly of Delegates established a Hu- man Rights Commission. The Commission consists of seven members nominated by the Barnstable County Department of Human Services' Health and Human Services Advisory Council, and appointed by the County Commissioners. The members of the Commission are residents of Barnstable County and, so far as practicable, were selected so as to provide Countywide, culturally and economically diverse representation. The Commission will also have a fifteen member Town Representation Coun- cil consisting of a representative from each town in Barnstable County. The purpose of the Human Rights Commission in part, is to enlist the coopera- tion of racial, religious, ethnic, civic, fraternal,.be- nevolent, and private and public agencies in elimi- nating unlawful discrimination by cultivating an at- mosphere of mutual understanding and harmoni- ous inter -group relationships. In 2005, a Barnstable County Charter Review Committee, was established. It consisted of: As- sembly Speaker Thomas Bernardo, who served as Chair; one County Commissioner; three Delegates. four members from the Upper, Mid, Lower, and Outer Cape areas, and two at large committee mem- 171 bers. The Committee met in Bourne, Barnstable, and Eastham twice a month; and as part of the committee's work in receiving input as to the effec- tiveness of County services and the future needs of the community, they also met with Boards of Se- lectmen and the Barnstable Town Council. The As- sembly of Delegates received a report from the Barnstable County Charter Review Committee that contained recommendations for changes to the Charter, to the County's Administrative Code and legislative changes that should be reviewed by the Assembly in the future. An Ad Hoc Committee was established to review the Committee's recommen- dations and report back to the Assembly of Del- egates in 2006. The Assembly of Delegates established a Cape Cod Water Protection Collaborative that will focus regional attention and resources on the critical need to develop comprehensive wastewater infrastruc- ture for Cape Cod. The goals of the Collaborative are: 1) Attract state, federal and public-private rev- enue sources for financing assistance to the Towns for wastewater projects; 2) Maximize regional co- operation and action in managing wastewater. 3) Coordinate the development of infrastructure that is cost-effective, technologically efficient and envi- ronmentally appropriate; and 4) Educate the public concerning the contribution wastewater manage- ment makes to sustaining Cape Cod's economic and environmental health. The Collaborative will consist of a Technical Advisory Committee, and a Governing Board, made up of representatives from the towns, and a Steering Committee. Delegates serve on various Standing Commit- tees. Each Standing Committee reviews certain components of the proposed County Budget. Com- mittees examine department budgets, review new programs, and also look at the goals and effective- ness of each program being operated within Barnstable County. During 2005 there were six Standing Commit- tees. The Standing Committees were involved with many regional issues. Below is a list of the commit- tees and a brief description of some of the issues that the committees worked on during fiscal year 2005. The Standing Committee on Finance, in addi- tion to the overwhelming task, of reviewing the bud- get, must look at every major decision rendered by the County that has financial implications. The Com- mittee reviewed the numerous options for allocat- ing the unanticipated revenues that were received. The Committee remains active throughout each year as new programs are developed and supplemental budgets are required. . The Standing Committee on Economic Affairs was involved with the County Economic Develop- ment Council, the revenues received from the pur- chase of the Barnstable County license plates, and. the grants that were awarded by the County from those revenues.. The Standing Committee on Public Services, worked on issues relating to the jail, and house of correction and matters relating to the existing build- ings within the County complex. The Standing Committee on Governmental Regulations, recommended the adoption of pro- posed ordinances regarding amendments to the Code of Cape Cod Commission Regulations. The Standing Coinniittee on Health and Human Services, continued to follow transportation Issues involving human service needs, the lack of afford- able housing, and the progress of the progress of the assisted living facility located at the Barnstable County Hospital. A complete list of Ordinances and Resolutions adopted by the Assembly of Delegates is available upon request. The Clerk of the Assembly of Delegates con- tinues to update and expand the Web page for the Assembly. The page includes information about the Assembly and the County in general, describes the work of the Assembly, lists the Assembly'.s regular meetings and Standing Committee meetings, and also gives a listing of the Cape Cod Commission's public hearings. The page provides a short biogra- phy about each Delegate. The site can be accessed at http://www.vsf.cape.com/ aofd/.

It is orga- nized through a formal intergovemmental agreement signed by all 21 member towns and Barnstable and Dukes counties. The purpose of the Cape Light Compact is to advance the interests of consumers in a competitive electric supply market, including the promotion of energy efficiency. Each participat- ing municipality has a representative on the Com- pact Governing Board, which sets policy and works with staff, technical and legal support to advance the Cape Light Compact programs. POWER SUPPLY In 2005, metered electric customers in Yarmouth saved approximately $63,511.57 through the com- petitive electricity supply contract negotiated by the Cape Light Compact with ConEdison Solutions. ENERGY EFFICIENCY In 2005, rebates and other efficiency incentive programs provided to the town by the Compact- totaled approximately $254,987.04 brought savings to 874 participants of $175,324.35 or about 1,168,829 kilowatt-hours of annual energy saved for 2005. Funding for the energy efficiency programs (i.e. energy audits for homes and businesses, rebates on the purchase of energy efficient appliances and energy education in our schools) comes from a monthly customer "energy conservation" charge ($0.0025 cents multiplied by the number of kilowatt hours used during the month) that appears on each customer's electric bill. 173 Respectfully submitted, Charlotte Striebel, Yarmouth Representative John Howard, Yarmouth Alternate INTEGRATED WATER RESOURCES PLANNING COMMITTEE Established in late 2003, the Integrated Water Resources Planning Committee (IWRPC) is work- ing to identify needs and priorities, to categorize the town by different wastewater needs, to coordi- nate with the ongoing Massachusetts Estuaries Project, and to develop an interim wastewater strat- egy for the town. Under the Direction of DPW Di- rector George Allaire, and with the assistance of con- sultants from Camp Dresser and McKee (CDM), the committee has studied ground water flows, elevated nitrogen levels, wellheads, all neighborhoods of Yarmouth -from the intense pockets of households, to the relative expanse of Great Island, the Route 28 business corridor and all town -owned parcels. Realizing that Yarmouth is not alone in its quest for clean drinking water and pristine beaches, the IWRPC has culled information from other regional towns who have already installed sewers in their ocean -front locales, like: Falmouth, Barnstable, Provincetown, Cohasset, Newburyport and Kingston, in an effort to shape the best possible system with the least possible amount of headaches for Yarmouth residents. In addition, the IWRPC chair- man also sits on the County Wastewater Collabo- rative Board to further bring Yarmouth's wastewa- ter issues, goals and hopeful (future) implementa- tion to all municipalities who share Cape Cod's sole - source aquifer. Whereas no wastewater solution - treating mil- lions of gallons of effluent is easily done, or inex- pensive, the committee has had continued dialogue with the Board of Selectmen, and the Finance Com- mittee. Once most of the "leg -work" has been com- pleted the IWRPC will begin to hold numerous "Q & A" meetings around all of Yarmouth's villages to in- quire and inform about the long-range goals to pro- tect the water supply. Upon completion of this out- reach portion, it is logically surmised that the Mas- sachusetts Estuary Program Report will have been issued to Yarmouth, and those state -mandated clean-up areas of our town will be further pinpointed or changed, and thus, more information will be di- rected to all residents, and then drawn up into nu- merous Annual Town Meeting articles for action by Annual Town Meeting. In closing, some say all this extra (and some volunteer) work is a thankless job - but as all of us know - without clean town drinking water, and al- gae -free coastlines - how much longer could we live here, and if we moved, who would ever buy our homes? Respectfully submitted, Brad Goodwin for the IWRPC, Planning Board/Capital Budget Committee Budget Representative George R.

It is comprised of five members, one of whom is appointed by the Finance Committee. The Board's duties include: • Recommending personnel policies, proce- dures and regulations for non-union person- nel; • Approving the content and format of all job descriptions subject to collective bargaining where applicable; • Acting on requests for changes in pay clas- sifications for permanent positions; acting on requests to modify pay rates for seasonal and temporary positions; and Other related duties as assigned by the Board of Selectmen and Town Administra- tor. A position classification review is the process by which the Town determines the appropriate pay grade for each permanent Town position or job. The process begins with a review of the job description by the employee(s), the supervisor, the department head, the Assistant Town Administrator and the union, if applicable. The Personnel Board then re- views the content of the job description for clarity and consistency with Town practice and conducts a numerical rating of the position using the Town's position rating manual. Often the employee and a supervisor may be present to describe the position and answer any questions the Personnel Board may have. During the year, the Board reviewed eight posi- tions, some of which took more than one meeting to review. The Board also reviewed the Miscella- neous Compensation Schedule, which covers sea- sonal and part-time positions. 175 As in prior years, activities were held to recog- nize the efforts and contributions of volunteer com- mitted members as well as employees. For volun- teer committee members, an appreciation break- fast was held at the Senior Center at which each volunteer received a token gift for his/her contribu- tion. An employee award dinner at which individu- als are recognized for their years of service and an ice cream social were held. These programs are in- tended to help maintain the high level of volunteerism the Town continues to benefit from and to renew the dedication of our paid staff. The Per- sonnel Board thanks the volunteers and employ- ees for their continued dedication and service. Member Ned Meara completed his term on the Board and due to other commitments did not wish to be reappointed. We thank him for his outstand- ing contribution. Ms. Dorothy Guenther has been appointed and we are sure she will become a valu- able member of the Board. The Personnel Board is most appreciative for the excellent staff assistance provided by Peter Johnson -Staub, Assistant Town Administrator, and Pamela Barnes, Administrative Assistant. The Personnel Board meets as needed at 6:30 p.m. at Town Hall. Respectfully submitted, Betty -Jane Burkhardt, Chairman and Finance Committee Representative Dorothy Guenther Bob Harding Judy Keith Sharon Ladley Ned Meara (resigned) TOWN SCHOLARSHIP FUND COMMITTEE Since being appointed by the Yarmouth Board of Selectmen In 1993, the Yarmouth Town Scholar- ship Fund Committee has awarded $204,00 in scholarships to 267 Yarmouth residents attending college. In 2005, we awarded $9000 in scholarships to 20 Yarmouth students. Scholarships are awarded to Yarmouth residents for undergraduate education. Awards are based on academic achievement, financial need, as well as school and community involvement. Funds for these scholarships are provided by yearly donations from Yarmouth Taxpayers who are invited via their property tax and water bills to con- tribute to the fund each year, as well as the Frederick Howes Educational Fund,the Ellen Chase Scholar- ship Fund, and the James Knowles Scholarship Fund. The Board of Selectmen is responsible for ap- pointing the five -member Scholarship Fund Com- mittee of 3 citizens, the D -Y superintendent of schools and a Selectmen representative. 2005 Members of the scholarship committee were: Sandi Femino, Chair John Mincielli Brenda Martinez Jerry Sullivan, Selectmen Representative D -Y Superintendent of Schools Tony Pierantozzi 176 CAPE COD REGIONAL TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT Cape Cod Regional Technical High School just completed another successful year. We graduated 137 seniors, and all of these seniors achieved a Competency Determination in both the English and Math MCAS (Massachusetts Comprehensive As- sessment System). Our graduating seniors also re- ceived over $130,000 in scholarships on annual awards night. The 9th and 10th graders completed their first year of 180 consecutive days of instruction in En- glish and Math to help address the need for stu- dents to meet higher expectations in academics. We celebrated our 30th year in technical education during the month of May with official recognition coming from Senator Kennedy, Governor Romney, State Senator O'Leary and State Representative Gomes. A gala reception/celebration was held on May 4th with over 350 past and present staff and advisory people in attendance. The "Roots and Roses" retail florist shop opened successfully this year as part of our Horticulture pro- gram. The shop was constructed by our technical students with the majority of materials purchased by funds from private donations. The Renewable Energy/Photovoltaic Training program, funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation in co- operation with Cape Cod Community College, al- lowed us to install four photovoltaic panels to sup- ply power to the "Roots and Roses" florist shop. An additional six awning style photovoltaic panels were installed above our science laboratories to supply electricity to both Tabs. In June, we held a Small Wind Turbine Installer's workshop where we installed a 3.6 Kilowatt wind turbine that sits atop a 127 foot tall tilt -up tubular steel tower that can be slowly low- ered and raised for maintenance and high wind pro- tection. The turbines maximum output rating is 1500 watts which is expected to produce 200-250 kWh/ month and is the first wind turbine on the Cape to be tied to the grid. Our Science Department has mapped out a Recycling initiative that we hope to implement in September 2005. A million dollar roof replacement on the building was completed with all funds coming from private donations. We have begun renovations of our tennis and basketball courts which should be completed before the start of school in September 2005. The Massachusetts Department of Education completed their Coordinated Program Review of our Special Needs Department and all areas were seen as being in compliance with state and federal laws with the exception of one area that was determined in partial compliance. Our students participated in competitions for Future Farmers of America (FFA), Skills USA and Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA) and Destination Imagination. We had two students elected to the Massachusetts State FFA office- one as Treasurer and one as FFA Sentinel for the 2005- 2006 school year. At the State FFA competition we had one student place first in individual soils and land judging and third place in individual turf man- agement. One of our Welding students and one of our Dental students each brought home a bronze medal at the State Skills USA competition; and at the District Skills USA competition our students re- ceived one gold medal in Culinary; two gold, two silver, and one bronze medals in Plumbing; as well as one silver and two bronze medals in Dental. The Occupational Safety and Hazard Administration (OSHA) awarded 120 of our students the ten hour OSHA card. All of our Senior class received their CPR cards. Our plumbing and electrical students displayed their talents in working on the "Habitat for Humanity" project in Hyannis for the third con- secutive year. We established several new athletic programs: a women's varsity and JV Volleyball program as well as a club lacrosse program. Our baseball, cross country, and tennis teams qualified for Massachu- setts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) State Tournament and our Golf Team participated in the MIAA State Vocational Tournament. Fourteen Cape Cod Tech students were selected as May- flower League All-stars during the school year in various sports. We strengthened our Adult Education offerings this past spring and enrolled a total of 236 adults in these programs with 134 adults in enrichment pro- grams, 55 adults in vocational training, 25 adults in state licensure programs and 22 students in fitness programs. Cape Cod Tech faculty and students were ma- jor contributors and participants in the Annual Cape - wide Diversity Day celebrated at Cape Cod Com- munity College in April providing ethnic food 177 samples, special displays with a live broadcast for the event from our radio station, WCCT. We thank your for your continuing support of our school.

To continue to improve academic skills, knowledge and literacy of all students with a focus on accountability in teaching. 2. To meet the learning needs of all students through comprehensive offerings and indi- vidualized student -centered teaching efforts. 3. To continue to improve parent and citizen knowledge of and involvement in the schools. 4. To continue open lines of communication with town government which facilitate mutual un- derstanding and cooperation. 5. To continue to address the capital needs of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School Dis- trict. 6. To address the requirements for special progress at the DYRHS established by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges Accreditation Report. The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District consists of five elementary schools, four in Yarmouth and one in Dennis, two middle schools, one in Yarmouth and one in Dennis and the Regional High School. We are a"district blessed with many dedi- cated individuals from administrators to teachers and aides, nurses, psychologists, secretaries, bus drivers and the many individuals who care for our buildings and grounds. Our common goal to not only educate but to help maintain the safety and well being of our students is one not taken lightly. It is a goal that we share with our students' par- ents, grandparents and families. The district enjoys many active volunteers that include both family and community members. There are many programs • throughout the district promoting student validation and involvement as productive citizens of both the towns of Dennis and Yarmouth. Programs such as police and fire safety, the Grandparents' breakfast, one to one student to adult mentoring, The Lunch Bunch and nursing home visits to school concerts provide a bridge from the school community to the community at Targe. Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District ex- penses remain substantial but well below both state and surrounding communities' per pupil expendi- tures. Federal and State mandates placed on the schools are extensive and expensive while funding at both the Federal and State level is insufficient and inequitable. The School Committee actively lob- bies for more equitable funding. Members of the School Committee have attended caucuses held at the state house and locally. The Chapter 70 for- mula continues to be an issue statewide, cape wide and now district wide. Programs and funding avail- able to our district are at risk because the legisla- ture has repeatedly failed to address the inequities in the Chapter 70 formula. It is clear that through "Equity in 70" and active lobbying we need to con- tinue to fight for more equitable funding for the Den- nis -Yarmouth School District individually and Cape Codas a whole. Renovations at the High School are continuing at the 67.71% reimbursementrate. The Building Committee chaired by Bob Tucker has done an outstanding job keeping the project as close to schedule as possible and below budget. We owe sincere thanks to Yarmouth residents for going to the polls on October 26 to show their support for our schools. The 923-267 votes to approve the Proposition two and a half debt exclusion will pro- vide $887,533 in capital improvements. These funds will be used to replace the Mattacheese- Middle School's auditorium and gym roofs and .the burn- ers and boilers at the John Simpkins Elementary School. We are grateful for the continued support of both towns in meeting our capital needs. Former Superintendent Anthony Pierantozzi departed for Somerville in July. Dr. Daniel Cabral did an outstanding job as interim Superintendent from the time of Tony's departure to the successful conclusion of the Superintendent search. With the aid of Peter Cannone and Walter Nagle of the Cen- ter for Executive Search we were able to conduct our search for Tony's replacement in a timely and efficient manner. It was very important to the Den- nis -Yarmouth Regional School Committee that both the school community and the community at targe be involved in the process. A Superintendent Search Subcommittee was formed. This committee included the. Director of Learning and Teaching, Gloria Lemerise, DYRHS Principal, Ken Jenks, Regional Department Head - Title 1, Cookie Stewart, Dennis parent, Mara Whipple, Yarmouth parent, Joe Tierney and D -Y 181 School Committee members, Gerry Bastian, Maryellen Angelone and Phil Morris. The Subcom- mittee dedicated a lot of time and energy to the process and for this we are extremely grateful. The Subcommittee recommended two finalists to the full School Committee. Of the two finalists, Carol Woodbury, our current superintendent was chosen. We are extremely pleased with this choice and wel- come Carol to the district. DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Carol A. Woodbury, Superintendent of Schools It was my privilege to assume leadership of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District as the Superintendent of Schools on October 31, 2005. As of October 1, 2005, 4007 students were enrolled in the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. This slight decline in enrollment from fiscal year 2005 seems to match the trend across the Cape and Is- lands. The high cost of real estate seems to be the major contributing factor. • The towns in this regional school district are to be commended for their commitment to education. While ongoing improvements will continue to be necessary and will need community support, much has already been accomplished. Some of the strengths of the DYRSD include low class sizes, the ability to accommodate the needs of a variety of learners, strong arts and other co -curricular pro- grams, and overall clean, well -kept facilities, includ- ing the grounds. A great deal of work has been com- pleted in the development of a curriculum and benchmarks consistent with the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks. Some examples of these strengths are outlined below. The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School's Marching Band was the Massachusetts State Champion for the third year in a row. The group placed fifth in the All -States Regional Champion- ship Competition. They will be traveling to Ireland in March to perform in the St. Patrick's Day Parade. In May 2005, the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District's Early Childhood Program earned accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), the nation's leading organization of early childhood profession- als. It is an honor to receive this accreditation. Like the high school accreditation process it is a testi- mony to the high quality of the program. In April 2005, the U.S. Environmental Protec- tion Agency awarded Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District with a Leadership Award for provid- ing good indoor air quality in the schools. It was noted that D -Y's progress toward using the EPA's Indoor Air Quality Tools for Schools Kit and Pro- gram continues to increase the healthy learning and teaching environment for students and staff. The parent involvement in school programs and the number of volunteers who assist our schools is impressive. Strong community support and involve- ment from various foundations, service organiza- tions, veterans, and other town departments, such as police, fire, library, and highway strengthens the work of the school community. The continuation of these partnerships and others will ensure a well- rounded educational program for all students. Meeting the goals of No Child Left Behind con- tinues to challenge Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District as it does all districts across the Commonwealth and across the nation. Based on the 2004 MCAS results Dennis -Yarmouth's Average Proficiency Index (API) was 79.2 and the state aver- age API was 77.6. This places Dennis -Yarmouth among the moderate performing academic school districts in the Commonwealth despite the district's continued ratings above state average. In English Language Arts, the district's proficiency index was 85.9 and the state average was 84. In math, the district's proficiency index was 72.4 and the state average was 71.3. We will continue to examine the needs of our students, plan instruction based on those needs, and develop systems of support to ensure continued adequate yearly progress. It is important to realize that this is only one measure of success. It must be noted that individual students and many D -Y student groups, clubs, and teams continue to amaze us with their talents and com- mitment to community, much of which cannot be measured on a test, but are most certainly a source of pride for both Dennis and Yarmouth. These stu- dents provide us with examples of learning beyond the classroom and remind us of the importance of a well-rounded public education. The School Committee's Capital Planning Sub- committee continues to work with the Yarmouth Capital Planning Committee and the Dennis Capi- tal Outlay Committee to plan for the future capital 182 needs of the district. A long-range facilities plan has been developed and continues to be honed to iden- tify the most significant infrastructure priorities and to ensure accuracy of projected costs. At the Yarmouth Special Town Meeting, the citi- zens of Yarmouth approved $887,533 in capital im- provements through a Proposition 2 Q debt exclu- sion vote. The funding was approved to repair the Mattacheese Middle School and John Simpkins Elementary School roofs. Additional funding was ap- proved to replace the burners and boilers at the John Simpkins Elementary School. In December the Den- nis -Yarmouth Regional School District announced that the first step in completing the roof projects was underway through the contracting for the roof- ing design service. Sincere thanks to the Yarmouth residents for your support of these critical infrastruc- ture projects. The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School Renovation project is progressing well. The persis- tence and perseverance of the building committee have kept the project under budget and only slightly behind schedule for completion. They continue to monitor the completed work to ensure the product delivered to the community is of high quality. These volunteers have given countless hours to their com- munities through this project and are to be com- mended for their work. We are looking forward to substantial completion near the end of the school year allowing us to be fully operational for the start of the 2006-2007 school year. Soon the twenty por- table classrooms will be a thing of the past. Dennis and Yarmouth should be proud of their accomplish- ment with this project. This was one of the last projects funded before the moratorium on school building assistance. The 66.67 percent state reim- bursement will go a long way to ensuring that local tax dollars will be available for other important com- munity services. As I have learned about the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, I have had the good for- tune to meet many wonderful, caring, and con- cerned citizens. I look forward to our continued work together. Thank you for your contributions. Please feel free to call (508-398-7600) if you have ques- tions, or visit our website to learn more about the district or the schools at www.dy- regional.kl2.ma.us. Recently, I came across this quote from Ben- jamin Franklin's writing in 1789, "Nothing can more effectually contribute to the cultivation and improve- ment of a country, the wisdom, riches and strength, virtue and piety, the welfare and happiness of a people than the proper education of youth." Thank you for your assistance in the "proper education of `our' youth." Clearly, this is not the job of one per- son alone. It will take all of us. It is my honor to serve two towns so committed to education. FISCAL AFFAIRS A. Francis Finnell, Director In support of our ongoing effort to provide pro- tection against rapidly escalating fixed costs, the District was able to add just over $200,000 to the unreserved fund balance in the general fund. This was after reserving $1,249,725 to offset assess- ments to the towns for fiscal 2006. Of this offset, $149,725 from earnings on investments will be used to reduce amounts paid for debt on the high school construction project. From the $1,100,000 used to reduce general fund assessments, $181,161 was transferred from Dennis to Yarmouth in lieu of ap- portioning assessments according to a Massachu- setts Department of Education formula rather than the Regional Agreement. In November 2005, the district issued $9,000,000 in bonds and had an additional $21,000,000 in bond anticipation notes outstand- ing to finance the renovation project. at Dennis - Yarmouth Regional High School. Because of the low bid received and adequate contingencies in the bud- get, we anticipate the project to be completed well under the $33,400,000 budget. During 2005, the District and towns continued to work on a long-range plan and address critical facility needs in the other schools. Dennis approved $160,000 in its capital plan and Yarmouth approved $1,040,973 to fund projects on its buildings. For the past 30 years, the towns have leased school buildings to the District under leases that expired on June 30, 2005. At that time, each of the towns issued a license for the District to use the school buildings through June 30, 2006. Our complex supervisor, L. Michael Colombo, decided to return to teaching and has been replaced by his assistant, Louis McPherson. We wish Mike well in his endeavors. 183 OFFICE OF INSTRUCTION Gloria E. Lemerise Director of Learning and Teaching As the district center for planning and coordi- nation of all aspects of student learning, the 2004- 05 year was very busy for the Office of Instruction. Curriculum team leaders, principals, and other ad- ministrators continued to revise and refine curricu- lum, develop and analyze common assessments, and offer professional development that supported best practices. The office prepared the documen- tation and staff for an extensive audit conducted by the state Office of Educational Quality and Account- ability (EQA). A number of grants, including com- petitive and private, were pursued. These efforts provided a variety of additional services and sup- port for students in the areas of academic achieve- ment, reading program development, health and safety, and teacher quality. In the area of curriculum development, the Dis- trict updated its literacy and mathematics curricu- lum. This process included modification of local standards to realign with the latest state expecta- tions of 2004. Local, common assessments were developed to determine how well our students are doing in achieving key learning goals. Reports from the pilot of full-day Kindergarten revealed that students were generally more success- ful and confident, competent learners. These stu- dents made greater gains in reading readiness and literacy development. They met math benchmarks sooner and had many more opportunities to be in- volved in center -based instruction in Science, So- cial Studies, and the Arts. The full-day kindergarten efforts were expanded to add at least one more section in each elementary school. We will continue to monitor the progress of all kindergarten students as they move through the primary grades. Achievement and accountability are major ar- eas that are monitored by the Instruction Office. The state and federal expectation is that more than 95% of all students must participate in the yearly Mas- sachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS), a goal that Dennis -Yarmouth schools ex- ceed. A reading test is given at grade 3, and tests of English Language Arts and Mathematics are given in grades 4, 6,7,8, and 10. Each year these assess- ments are used to determine the District's progress towards all students achieving the proficient level, the minimal expectation for all students by 2014. The steps toward this rating are described as mak- ing Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). To attain a posi- tive AYP rating, all students must meet criteria for participation, performance, improvement, -atten- dance, and graduation rate. At this time attendance is up slightly from the 92% requirement set by the federal government. This is a challenging goal and requires the cooperation of school, home and com- munity. As part of the EQA audit, the progress made towards the goal of proficiency was examined. An area of concern was the dropout rate, which ex- ceeded the state average. During the winter of 2005- 06 a task force with representation from both middle and high school is working to address this issue and identify steps to help remedy this situation. Professional development efforts support our roles as educators. The world of technology con- tinues to expand and requires constant effort to be sure we are using it in the most effective manner. Staff members have spent a great deal of time learn- ing about better ways to integrate web -based re- sources and instructional tools, like interactive white boards, to enhance instruction and meet the needs of learners. Hand-held devices are being used to make assessment faster, easier, and more accu- rate. Through the efforts of our technology staff and consultants we have been able to bring a variety of professional development opportunities forward. The District serves a diverse population. In re- sponse to the varying needs of our students, pro- fessional development has also been provided in the areas of English language learning, the devel- opment of mathematical thinking, literacy instruc- tion and assessment, and Responsive Classroom II. Paraprofessionals were active participants in many of these activities as well. As lifelong learn- ers, the educators of Dennis -Yarmouth strive to empower each student to achieve excellence with integrity in a changing world. SPECIAL SERVICES Daniel C. Kennedy, Director The Department of Special Services includes four major programs: Special Education, Title I, En- glish Language Learners and Early Education. Our Special Services Program continues to be exemplary by the Massachusetts Department of 184 Education. Our Special education programs con- tinue to draw students from other Cape towns through School Choice. Our schools focus remains on an inclusionary model of education, with stu- dents who have special needs having access to the regular education curriculum. The Department of Special Services' staff de- livers a continuum of support services for all stu- dents within the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. Personnel assigned to the Special Needs Department provide special education for the six hundred forty-nine (649) special needs students. This represents 15.7% of our total school population. The greatest concerns of the Special Services Department are the number of new students with major medical problems, children on the Autism Spectrum and children with mental health issues. These are the high cost children that may need out - of district services. Our main goal will continue to be positive edu- cational reform for all children as it pertains to a free and appropriate public education required by fed- eral and state laws. Special education students must be directly involved with the state curriculum if they are to pass MCAS. Dennis -Yarmouth's FY06 Title I program serves approximately one thousand seventy-seven (1,077) students. This program encompasses reading; mathematics, Reading Recovery in grade one and (60) children in counseling with a total budget of $1,056,663. These services are provided to the chil- dren in seven School Wide Title I schools. The Dennis -Yarmouth Schools received a com- petitive grant for the homeless children in the dis- trict. This McKinney-Vento grant provides parenting education, school supplies, clothing and food to the children. It also provides some assistance for their transportation to school should they move to an- other district. The primary purpose of the English Language Learner (ELL) program is to reduce the gap in En- glish language skills so those students can succeed in Sheltered English Immersion (SEI) classrooms with their peers. This program currently serves one hundred ninety-seven (197) students at all levels. This population represents twenty-two (22) differ- ent countries and ten (10) different languages. The department has been working closely with the DOE on the continuing efforts of SEI throughout the dis- trict. As of July 1, 2005, MA created a new state level department known as the Massachusetts Depart- ment of Early Education and Care. The D -Y Early Education Special Needs Program provides spe- cial education services to young children and their families. Sixty (60) preschool children (ages 3-4) are identified with special education needs. Sixty-two (62) typical children are included in the program through a state grant. "Childsearch" activities in- cluding screenings, evaluations, consultation to parents, caregivers, and early education profession- als in the community, are ongoing throughout the school year. The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District serves as the lead agency for the state funded Community Partnerships for Children (CPC) grant totaling ($498,470). The funds from this grant provide year round early education and childcare for over two hundred children (200) in Dennis and Yarmouth. The Early. Literacy Bookmobile visits ap- proximately four hundred (400) young children per month at various sites throughout the community. Statutes and regulations at the federal and state level are becoming more complex, and schools are mandated to do more and more with fewerre- sources. In that regard, the staff should be com- mended for providing exemplary services to the stu- dents in the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School Dis- trict. DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL Kenneth T. Jenks, Principal would like to begin my annual report by thank- ing the voters of Dennis and Yarmouth for their gen- erous support of the thirty-three point four million dollar high school renovations project. The project will be completed in 2006 and the upgraded facility will provide increased educational opportunities for our students. Our students will be better prepared for their futures because of the commitment to edu- cation by the citizens of both towns. The high school's October. 2005 enrollment was 1142 students. The class of 2005 illustrates the strength of the high school program. Eighty-one percent of the class of 2005 planned to attend col- lege: fifty-five percent planned to attend a four year college or university and twenty-six percent planned to attend a two year college. Many students in the class of 2005 pursued other opportunities: four per- cent planned to go to a technical school, eleven 185 percent planned to enter the workforce, two per- cent planned to join the armed services and the re- mainder were undecided about their future plans. The students in the class of 2005 collectively re- ceived over $240,000 in scholarships and awards. Our students and staff appreciate the generous in- dividuals, organizations and businesses that pro- vided this vital financial support for our students. The high school's faculty and staff are commit- ted to "Empowering Each Student to Achieve Ex- cellence with Integrity in a Changing World." D -Y continues to stress an academic core of English, foreign language, math, science, and social stud- ies. We maintain a full complement of Advanced Placement courses and we continue to increase the number of honors level classes in order to challenge our most able students. We value a well-rounded program for all of our students, consequently, our graduation requirements call for students to com- plete course work in our elective areas: art, busi- ness, computers and technology, health and physi- cal education, and music. We support career ori- ented options including work based learning and internships with local businesses. Our students can earn college credit through the Tech Prep and Dual Enrollment programs that we operate in conjunc- tion with Cape Cod Community College. Our fac- ulty and staff are committed to lowering our drop out rate and D -Y students can pursue alternative paths to graduation through participation in our day and evening alternative learning programs. Our staff, students and families worked together to prepare our students for the MCAS tests. The majority of our sophomores passed the rigorous tenth grade MCAS tests last spring, but we will not rest until all of our students make the grade. D -Y's faculty, staff and students have enjoyed a successful year. Art students have been recognized for their talents. Students have been published. The music program placed among the top schools dur- ing band and color guard competitions. Our drama program performed a number of fine shows. Stu- dent government and our many service groups have donated many hours and many dollars to charities and our communities. Our athletes have set new records; many teams have enjoyed winning sea- sons and several teams made the tournaments. D- Y teachers have been awarded grants, received honors and been published. We know a large part of our success comes from the support of our communities. We are thank- ful for the support our towns have provided in the past and we hope both Dennis and Yarmouth will again provide the moral and fiscal support neces- sary for success in the coming year. MAITACHEESE MIDDLE SCHOOL Emily A. Mezzetti, Principal It is with ongoing pride that 1 submit to you the annual report for Mattacheese Middle School on behalf of the faculty and staff. The school culture at Mattacheese continues to embrace the diverse population of six hundred fifty sixth, seventh, and eighth graders currently enrolled. Highlights of the past year include dedicated volunteers that enrich our school's programs, an action plan to address the Department of Education's designation of Mattacheese as "a school in need of improvement," continually expanding co - curricular opportunities for our students, and a tribute to some of our many dedicated staff members. The Mattacheese School Council meets monthly to review our school's progress based upon our annual improvement plan. Our teachers and parents, along with Deputy Chief Almonte, our com- munity representative, share wonderful perspective as we forge a plan together to continually enhance our students' opportunities. Our Parent Teacher Organization, small in number but great in contri- butions, continues to support enrichment opportu- nities for our students, the most noteworthy of which is the annual eighth grade class trip to New York City and the successful debt exclusion vote this past October providing funds for our new roof to be in- stalled this spring. The Massachusetts Department of Education highlighted for us two areas delineated "in need of improvement." This led to initiatives in grade eight mathematics and closer scrutiny of our daily atten- dance. I thank our faculty, parents, and students for working to ensure growth in these areas to meet and surpass the state's requirements. Several other collaborative projects this year include: a revision of our Code of Conduct, conversion to new stu- dent management software, our building -based mentoring program for our new faculty members, and our projects aligned with our support from the Global Institute for Student Aspirations. 186 Complementing our students' core program, a tremendous source of pride is our co -curricular pro- gram. Our music and athletic opportunities for stu- dents continue to thrive, supplemented by our Af- ter School Activities Program and other special events throughout the school year. All of these ac- tivities are made possible through the dedicated efforts of our outstanding faculty. As we reflect on the fine team of professionals at Mattacheese, we would like to recognize Mr. Bjornholm, Mrs. Ginther, Mr. Kenyon, and Mrs. Stratton who concluded their careers in education this past June, and Mrs. Jayne Cash, our school nurse of thirty-three years, who retired in February. We thank them for serving in this noble profession and wish them many years of health and prosperity in retirement. While the dedication of our faculty is woven throughout this report, there are several quietly hard- working individuals committed to the success of our school community. I would like to highlight our support staff members, especially our building sec- retaries and maintenance team members, who with the support of our district administration office, maintenance department, and grounds foreman, make our school a source of community pride. I would also like to thank the Yarmouth Police De- partment for its support in ensuring that we have Officer Coughlan, our full time resource officer to work with us daily. On behalf of the Mattacheese community, would also like to thank our students, their parents, central office administrators, the school committee, and our town's elected officials for their ongoing support of Mattacheese. NATHANIEL H. WIXON MIDDLE SCHOOL Lisa A. McMahon, Ed.D., Principal The Wixon Middle School provided a nurturing learning environment for 550 students in grades four through eight this year. These enrollment figures were slightly lower than the previous school year. Principal Patricia Fitzsimmons retired in Novem- ber and her many years of dedicated service were honored by a gathering held by school and com- munity members. The Wixon community wishes her good health and happiness in her new stage of life. This year the School Improvement Council goals remain the same emphasizing respect, responsibil- ity, student achievement and safety. The goals of improved attendance and school culture continue, to be of key importance to our school community. To address attendance, the attendance team con- tinued to meet regularly to analyze patterns and, implement various levels of intervention. The goal of improved school culture was addressed through- out the year by members of a faculty sub -commit- tee, the school council and the entire staff. A new protocol for behavioral expectations was developed and implemented during the later part of the school year. The faculty and School Council will continue to monitor and revise the new. protocol. During the spring of 2005, students in all grade. levels participated in state mandated MCAS test- ing. Wixon students continue to make progress as evidenced by our invitation to apply for the Van- guard grant. This grant recognizes superior school achievement on standardized testing by the state., The students at Wixon Middle School continue to be provided with the necessary academic knowl- edge in the areas of English Language Arts, Math- ematics, Science & Technology, and History and Social Studies. We take pride in offering quality pro- grams in art, health, music, physical education and technology. Our array of after-school programs pro- vides students with enrichment activities ranging from visual arts to interscholastic athletics. We are grateful to the citizens of Dennis forcontinuing to support our school community. EZRA H. BAKER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Kevin Depin, Principal It is my great pleasure to submit this report on the progress at the Ezra H. Baker School. When our school began its 74th year on September 6, 2005, we welcomed 431 students in kindergarten through grade 3. We currently offer 5 sections of kindergar- ten and grade 1, and 6 sections of grades 2 and 3. We provide an early childhood educational experi- ence for an additional 28 pre-schoolers. Our school is the home of the Special Education Alternative Learning Site (SEALS) program, a district program for medically fragile children. Our extended day pro- gram continues to flourish, and this year we pro- vide wrap around care from 7:30 A.M. until 5:30 RM. as well as during school vacation weeks. 187 The fall marked the end of service for three long time members of our faculty. Mr. George Streeter, a physical education teacher, and Mrs. Philly Evans, a third grade teacher, chose to retire after each con- tributing more than 30 years of service. Mr. Richard Ervin, a school psychologist, retired after 24 years at the Baker School. The contributions of each of these professionals are many. They have left their mark on the fabric of our school. Our students continue to thrive! This year, we have expanded our full day kindergarten program after a successful pilot program last year. More than 80 students participate in a full day of kindergarten. In the program, families pay tuition for the second half of the kindergarten day. We are in our second year of implementing the Responsive Classroom, a character education program designed to help chil- dren become more responsible learners and c!tizens. This year we have continued to focus on student as- sessments, particularly in English Language Arts and Math. Using assessment results, teachers plan instruc- tion that will best meet the needs of our students. Our parent community, as well as the Dennis community, continue to support our efforts on be- half of students. Over 90 parent and community members volunteered regularly last year. During the month of March, we instituted a Community Lunch Bunch, in which town employees visited school once each week to have lunch with a group of stu- dents. Our students really enjoyed their special time with members from our Police Department, Fire Department, Libraries and Town Hall. Our Parent Teacher Advisory Council (PTAC) is progressing on its main goal of replacing our playground structure. We seek to install a playground that is accessible for all of our students, is safe, and easily maintained. We hope to have our new playground in time for our 75th anniversary. At the Ezra H. Baker School, we look forward to another exciting year, our 75th. We truly appreciate the support we receive from so many members of the Dennis Community. LAURENCE C. MacARTHUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Carole A. Eichner, Principal It is a privilege to submit this annual town report for Laurence C. MacArthur Elementary School (LCM). According to the October 1 2005 enrollment report, LCM has a total of 204 students K - 2. We currently have four sections of Kindergarten, four First and four Second Grade classrooms. Nine of our students School Choice to LCM from neigh- boring towns. We host an integrated Early Educa- tion Program for 3 to 5 year-old children with and without special education needs. Affordable daycare is offered to our students outside the regular school day hours. Our 55 year-old building is well main- tained. We are able to provide space for adult edu- cation and various community groups after school and in the evenings. Our School Improvement Plan is focused and specific to address the varied needs of our students. We are continuing and refining three initiatives, which started last year: Schoolwide Title I, Responsive Classroom and the Scott Foresman Reading Pro- gram. We value and emphasize daily school atten- dance and active parent involvement. We are in our second year of offering All Day Kindergarten. This program is fee-based and the 39 students in the program were chosen through a lottery system. Our Learning Enhanced Academic Program (LEAP) of- fers enriching learning experiences for participat- ing second grade students. Our devoted staff mem- bers maintain high expectations for all our students. We continue to work collaboratively with the John Simpkins School (JSE) staff to analyze local and state test results, implement new instructional strat- egies and identify areas that need improvement. Since the last annual report, LCM has welcomed several new staff members: R Arone, S. Buron, S. Corcoran, R. Fitzpatrick, M. Sprague, D. Sweeney and E. Vath. June of 2005 marked the end of teach- ing for two highly valued and respected members of our staff. Susan Connor retired from her Grade 2 teaching position after 35 years of dedicated ser- vice to the youth in our community. Jim Sabourin, our Library Media Specialist, maintained libraries both at LCM and JSE for 14 years, also retired. Thanks to the steadfast efforts of our volunteers, we are able to offer several extended support ser- vices to our students. LCM and JSE share a Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). We have a resourceful and energetic PTO led by Liz Novak, Missy Barber, Peggy McNamara and Carrie Rodricks. The LCM School Council meets monthly and develops goals, oversees the school budget and makes recommen- dations to improve our school for all children. School Council members are: Liz Novak, Christine Blake, 188 Pauline Bartley, Jane Tucker, Linda Cornog, Barbara Gold and Vicki. Copenhaver. Each year, the Yarmouth Fire and Police Depart- ments support our students and staff members with a number of safety programs. We appreciate all their efforts and the support of all our Yarmouth commu- nity volunteers for making LCM the place "where excellence begins." Visit our school website for regular updates: www.dy-regionl.k12.ma.us/dyrsd/Icm.htm JOHN SIMPKINS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Jonathan W. Hirst, Principal It is with great pleasure that I submit my annual report of the John Simpkins Elementary School. Our enrollment this year is 237 students in grades three through five. We have twelve classrooms with an average class size of twenty. The district's commit- ment to maintaining class size in the lower twenties is commendable. We also house the district -wide Developmentally Delayed Program for students in Grades three through five. We work closely with the staff of the Laurence C. MacArthur School to ensure a strong academic focus for students from pre-school through grade five. This collaboration allows us to develop strate- gies that reflect our commitment to academic suc- cess for all students. The PTO works with both schools to assist us in keeping the lines of communication open between the staff and parents at each school. The PTO offic- ers for this school year are: Liz Novak and. Missy Barber as Co -Chairs, Peggy McNamara—Treasurer, and Carrie Rodricks - Secretary. Our School Council continues to work to de- velop a long-range School Improvement Plan. It is aligned with the districts' commitment to empow- ering each student to achieve excellence with in- tegrity in a changing world. In conclusion, I would like to thank the citizens of the Town of Yarmouth for their support. MARGUERITE E. SMALL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Randall W. Wallin, Principal It is with enthusiasm that I submit this Annual Report of the Marguerite E. Small Elementary School. I feel privileged to work with such a fine staff of professionals who are dedicated not only to teaching but learning. This is exemplified through the many teachers who are involved in workshops and graduate courses throughout the summer and during the school year. As of October 1, 2005, our enrollment reflected 319 students. The individual breakdown was as fol- lows: Kindergarten 47; Grade one 59; Grade two 59; Grade three 49; Grade four 59; Grade five 46. We are in the second year of a five-year plan to fully implement a tuition based all day kindergarten for all kindergarten -aged students in Dennis and Yarmouth. We opened one additional section of all day Kindergarten this year and plan to open the last section next year. For the second year we applied for and received the John Silber Grant. This grant has again assisted in changing and improving our reading program. As a result of this grant, we were able to continue our contract with IDEAL Associ- ates to assist with the development of reading in- terventions, as a part of professional development for the faculty. Additionally, we have introduced the Lexia reading intervention program. This is a com- puter-based program where student's work is re- viewed independently in order to increase specific deficits in reading skills. The School Improvement Council continues to have a positive presence in our school. We have successfully submitted the School Improvement Plan (SIP) to the School Committee, which addresses our school goals. A copy of the SIP has been filed in our Library and our web site for perusal. I would like to thank the following people for their continued dedication in volunteering to serve on this council: Usa Beltrandi, Jean Brennan, Denise Galvin, Cathi Close, Elaine Lavallee, Kelly Lawlor and Gary Rupnow. At the heart of our school is Marguerite E. Small's Parent Teacher Organization. These dedicated vol- unteers spend countless hours working to make our school and community a better place. Our PTO fundraising supports many enrichment programs that fill a variety of needs in our school. They have sponsored family Pasta Night, Taco Night and an Ice Cream Social, all of which are held to foster family unity in our school community. Our PTO is a great way for parents to get involved with our school. We also have many community volunteers that come into our school weekly to help our children become 189 more well rounded individuals. Additionally, I would like to thank Police Chief Peter Carnes and Fire Chief Randall Sherman for their support in presenting safety programs to our students. A special thanks is warranted to Officer Sean Brewer for being committed to the Adopt -A - School Program and being our Police resource when needed. After 34 years of service to the students of Yarmouth, Wendy King has earned the right to enjoy a restful retirement. We will miss the level of profession- alism and joy of teaching she brought to our school. All of our successes as a school would not be possible without our elected School Committee members who continue to volunteer their time and are dedicated to our educational programs for all of the children of Dennis and Yarmouth. STATION AVENUE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Sharon L. Hartley, Principal I am proud to submit the eleventh annual report of the Station Avenue Elementary School. Our school continues to make steady progress through the collaborative efforts of students, parents, com- munity members, teachers and staff. This fall we welcomed 382 students in kindergarten through fifth grade. Station Avenue School provides a rigorous aca- demic program and a child -centered social curricu- lum. Students explore and gain skills in reading and writing, mathematics, social studies, science, art, music, physical education, health, and technology. We continue to explore the concept of full day kin- dergarten. This year we offered two pilot, fee-based, full day kindergarten classes and one traditional half- day class of kindergarten. In addition to their regu- lar academic and related arts classes, fourth and fifth grade students may choose to participate in instrumental music, peer mediation, and student mentoring. We also have a fifth grade chorus known as the SAE Soaring Singers. Our academic program includes assistance for students who need help in English Language Arts and Mathematics. SAE stu- dents are offered enrichment opportunities through programs such as Great Books, Destination Imagi- nation, and Math Club. Our teachers value continuous learning and regularly engage in professional development in the form of coursework and workshops. During the year, SAE staff expanded their knowledge and skills in many areas including the DIBELS assessment sys- tem, Math Problem Solving, social studies, student behavior, Reading and Writing. Staff members work together in a mode of continuous improvement to ensure the best learning experiences for our students. The Station Avenue School appreciates strong support from the school community and from our surrounding business community. The SAE School Council provides guidance and initiative to improve our school. The council membership includes teacher representatives, Rosemarie Dykeman, Patricia MacArthur, Steve McDonough and Beverly Burton; and parent representatives, Christina Carey, Robert Palmeri, Jen Slovak and Karen Gallagher. The Parent Teacher Organization supports many educational and enrichment programs including the after school activity program, field trips for all stu- dents, and cultural enrichment presentations. We are grateful to the PTO members and their officers: Suzanne Menard and Gary Maradian, Co -Presi- dents; Laurie Davis and Jacqueline Sullivan, Co - Vice Presidents; Michelle Dunn, Secretary; Kim Borowski and Tina Andre, Co -Treasurers; and Sh- annon Feeney, Cultural Enrichment Chairpersons. We deeply appreciate the support and service of the D -Y school system and Yarmouth officials in- cluding the Yarmouth Police Department, Fire De- partment and the Recreation Department. This year SAE students and staff were recog- nized for their community service and their accom- plishments. SAE students participated in a Tsunami Relief Fundraiser and donated more than $3,700 to UNICEF's School in a Box Effort. Our students were honored for their contributions to local writing con- tests, their accomplishments in the President's Physical Fitness Program, a Flag Day Ceremony, monthly all school meetings, community service projects, and field day. Two teachers, Mrs. Mary Knowland and Mr. Paul Leofanti, retired in June, 2005 after many years of dedicated service to the children of Yarmouth. With her passion for art and dedication to community service, Mrs. Knowland served as a shining example and an inspiration to the SAE staff, students and school community. Mr. Leofanti is remembered for his enthusiastic and energetic style and his dedica- tion to literacy. We welcomed several new teachers to Station Avenue Elementary School this year: Ms. 190 i Stephanie Booth, music teacher; Mrs. Elena Schuck, librarian; Mrs. Kathleen White, art; Mrs. Shannon Danne-Feeney and Ms. Jen Alden, LEAP teachers; Ms. Lauren Machnik, kindergarten teacher; and Mrs. Lori Horan, fifth grade teacher. As always, we thank the good citizens of Yarmouth for their continued support and commit- ment to our school and our children. FOOD SERVICE Garth J. Petracca, Coordinator: The Food Service Program is in the process of changing the way students, parents and the com- munity in general look at school food service. We are constantly striving to make positive changes. As our system for processing free and reduced lunch applications becomes more accurate, we have seen a decrease in approved applications and conse- quently a reduction in reimbursements from the state and federal government.. Even with decreases in reimbursements and increases in food and mate- rial costs our commitment to the students remains intact and we will continue to provide the best pos- sible service to our students. The Food Service Program served an average of 3080 meals per day with an average yearly par- ticipation rate of 75 percent. Nearly 38 percent of the student population is participating in this pro- gram. It is vital, not only to the food service pro- gram but the entire school system in general, that everyone who think they might qualify for free or reduced meals complete and submit an application. Payroll made up 40 percent of thefood service budget for the fiscal year 2005 while food purchases accounted for 54 percent. The remaining 6% of the expenditures are made up of office supplies, gov- emment commodities and equipment maintenance. The Food Service Program is committed to con- tinuing the practice of reimbursing the general fund for a portion of its benefit program cost by transfer- ring $50,000.00 yearly to this fund. All of us who work in the Food Service Program have a strong commitment to the students of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. We want them to be excited about what they eat, healthy because they participate in the program and com- pletely satisfied with their eating experience. We en- courage student and parent involvement in the pro- gram and welcome comments and suggestions. 191 TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District Technology Department provides services to all eight schools and the Central Office. The two tech- nicians, John Tiedeman and David Aran, maintain the 1500 plus computers and peripherals. This past year has been particularly challenging for them. The renovations at the high school have kept the tech- nicians busy relocating equipment during the many moves that have taken place. Secretary, Jan Daniels is responsible for the computer inventory, software and peripherals, purchasing and data processing supplies as well as managing the work order sys- tem. Chris Machado, Network Technology. Coordi- nator, makes sure all our networks are kept up and running, that the Internet and e-mail is accessible, configures and negotiates all hardware purchases, works with school secretaries to ensure the integ- rity of our SIMS data and maintains all the district's administrative databases. Lory Stewart, Instructional Technology Coordinator, is responsible for mentoring teachers on the integration of technol- ogy into the curriculum, grant writing, e -Rate filing, district -wide professional development, filing the District Technology Plan with the Department: of Education and maintenance of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District's web site. (http://www.dy- regional.k12.ma.us/dyrscp The website had two new features added. An area is now devoted to our Hu- man Resources department and Document Cen- tral provides staff with access to all state and local curriculum related documents. During the past year, the computer networking hardware infrastructure of the school district has been undergoing a complete upgrade. Both middle schools and all of the elementary schools have had new servers installed to increase bandwidth and improve service to students and staff. In addition to those upgrades, the district has purchased a stu- dent administration software program that maintains information on each of our students. It tracks grades, test scores, attendance, health records, and disci- plinary actions. We currently have that up and run- ning at both our high school and middle schools. The elementary schools are scheduled to have their software installed and ready for the FY 07 school year. Technology is currently taking an important po- sition in the elementary school reading program. We are now using handheld computers to administer a diagnostic reading test to our Kindergarten and first grade students. Administered by our reading pro- fessionals, the DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of Ba- sic Early Literacy Skills) test, records student re- sponses on the handhelds. Upon completion of the testing, the handhelds are hot -synced to a com- puter, the student responses are then transported via the Internet and student test results can be im- mediately viewed at a secure website. This test determines if our students are at risk for not being successful and what interventions to use to reduce that risk. Currently seven of our eight schools have websites. Most offer online homework help for stu- dents, school calendars, newsletters and various resources for staff, students and parents. In all of the schools, the person who maintains the individual school web site does it on a volunteer basis. The DYRSD Technology Department strives to meet the needs of the students and staff. This effort includes professional development, attendance at conferences and meetings with other technology teams and staying current on new developments and trends. We look forward to serving the district in the coming year: DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE In 2005, the renovation construction project at Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School passed some major milestones. Reinstatement items were approved and added back into the project totaling 1.9 million dollars. Completed renovation project areas include the track and bleachers, concession stand, upper gym, administrative suite, science wing, cafeteria, ALP, and the 000 wings. The parking lot was re surfaced and outside lights installed and the septic plant went on line. Work began on the 400 and 500 wing class- rooms. The last major construction to be done is the library section, main gym and some miscellaneous minor projects. Punch list items and final adjust- ments to mechanical systems will continue for a while after wards. Financial status of the project is still under bud- get. The quality of work as reported by SMMA is good and the visual impact of work completed to date has received many positive comments from the public and students. We will continue to work with the School Com- mittee and both Towns to assure that the best value for the dollar is spent on the project It is expected that major construction should be completed by the summer of 2006. It has been a long road and the end is near. Thanks to the School Staff and Administration and for their understanding of the changes needed to conduct the project and hold classes at the same time. A special thanks to the Inspectional Services of Yarmouth for helping in make this project what it is today.

CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS 126 President Avenue Fx1I River, M_ A 02720 TEL. (508)675-7889 FAX (508) 675.7859 Independent Auditors' Report School Committee Dennis -Yarmouth School District We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business -type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District (District) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2005, which collectively comprise the District's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the District's management. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing 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 opinions. In our opinion, based on our audit, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business -type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the District as of June 30, 2005, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated September 1, 2005 on our consideration of the District's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants agreement and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit. The management's discussion and analysis on pages 3 through 10 and the schedule of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances - budgetary basis - general fund on pages 37 through 38 are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquires of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it. 225 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the District's basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, local Governments, and Non -Profit Organizations, and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements of the Dennis -Yarmouth School District. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. September 1, 2005 226 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis Year Ended June 30, 2005 The discussion and analysis of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District's (District) financial statements provides an overall review of the District's financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. The intent of this discussion and analysis is to look at the District's financial performance as a whole; readers should also review the notes to the basic financial statements and the financial statements to enhance their understanding of the District's financial performance. Financial Highlights Key financial highlights for 2005 are as follows: • General revenues accounted for $32,300,091 in revenue or 61.8% of all revenues. Program specific revenues in the form of charges for services, operating grants and contributions accounted for $19,991,385 or 38.2% of total revenues of $52,291,476. • The District had $49,889,972 in expenses; $19,991,385 of these expenses were offset by program specific charges for services, grants and contributions. General revenues (primarily member assessments and state aid) were adequate to provide for the remaining expenses. • Among the major funds, the General Fund had $45,575,665 in revenues and $44,682,098 in expenditures. The General Fund's fund equity balance increased $916,567 over 2004. Town assessments of $31,836,963 were the major portion of general fund revenue. Comparisons to the prior year are as follows: • General revenues increased over the prior year by $2,179,066 or 4.3% primarily due to increased operating grants revenues of $1,126,575 and Town Assessments of $869,272. Overview of the Financial Statements This annual report consists of five parts: (1) management's discussion and analysis (this section), (2) the basic financial statements, (3) the required supplementary information, (4) supplementary information and (5) the single audit reports. The basic financial statement include two kinds of statements that present different views of the District: • The first two statements are district -wide financial statements that provide both short-term and long- term information about the District's overall financial status. The remaining statements are fund financial statements that focus on individual parts of the District, reporting the District's operations in more detail than the district -wide statements. • The governmental funds statements tell how basic services like regular and special education were financed in the short term as well as what remains for future spending. 227 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis (Continued) Year Ended June 30, 2005 • Proprietary fund statements consist of internal service funds which are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate the costs internally among the District's various functions such as workers' compensation. The services provided by the internal service fund predominately benefit the governmental rather than the business -type functions. This fund has been included within governmental activities in the government -wide financial statements. • Fiduciary fund statements provide information about the financial relationships in which the District acts solely as a trustee or agent for the benefit of others. The financialstatements also include notes that explain some of the information in the statements and provide more detailed data. The statements are followed by a section of required supplementary information that further explains and supports the financial statements with a comparison on the District's budget for the year. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain supplementary information combining non -major governmental funds.

All additions and deductions during the year, regardless of when cash is received or paid DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis (Continued) Year Ended June 30, 2005 The major features of the District's financial statements are summarized in the above table, including the portion of the District's activities they cover and the types of information they contain. The remainder of this overview section of management's discussion and analysis highlights the structure and content of each of the statements. District -wide Statements The district -wide statements report information about the District as a whole using accounting methods similar to those used by private -sector companies. The statement of net assets includes all of the District's assets and liabilities. All of the current year's revenues and expenses are accounted for in the statement of activities regardless of when cash is received or paid. The two district -wide statements report the District's net assets and how they have changed. One way to measure the District's financial health or position is the difference between the District's assets and liabilities (i.e., net assets). Over time, increases or decreases in the District's net assets are an indicator of whether its financial position is improving or deteriorating, respectively. To assess the overall health of the District, additional non-financial factors should be considered such as changes in the District's assessment base and the condition of the school buildings. In the district -wide financial statements, all the District's activities are reported as governmental activities. Town assessments and federal and state aid finance most of these activities. Fund Financial Statements The fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the District's funds, focusing on its most significant or "major" funds — not the District as a whole. Funds are accounting devices the District uses to keep track of specific sources of funding and spending on particular programs: Some funds are required by State law and by bond covenants. The District establishes other funds to control and manage money for particular purposes (like repaying its long-term debts) or to show it is properly using certain revenues (like federal and state grants) The District is reporting all fund types: Governmental Funds — All of the District's services except those accounted for in other funds are included in governmental funds, which generally focus on (1) how cash and other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash flow in and out, and (2) the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. Consequently, the governmental fund statements provide a detailed short=term view that helps determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the District's programs. Because this information does not encompass the additional long-term focus in the district -wide statements, additional information is provided with the governmental funds statements that explain the relationship or difference between them. 229 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis (Continued) Year Ended June 30, 2005 Proprietary Funds — All of the District's internal services, such as workers' compensation, is accounted for in the proprietary fund. This fund uses the same measurement focus as the ones used in the government -wide financial statements. However, these statements provide more detail and additional information, such as the cash flow statement. Fiduciary Funds — The District's fiduciary funds are comprised of agency funds and private purpose funds which consist of scholarship funds. Fiduciary funds are excluded from the government -wide financial statements because the District cannot use these assets to finance its' operations. Financial Analysis of the District as a whole As noted earlier, the net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a District's financial position. At the close ofthe fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the District's assets exceeded liabilities by $10,459,661 and $7,695,287, respectively. Current and other assets Capital assets Total assets Current liabilities Long-term liabilities Total liabilities Net assets: Invested in capital assets, net of related debt Reserved for debt service Reserved for next year's appropriations Unrestricted Total net assets 2005 2004 $ 14,263,415 $ 9,617,985 29,711,523 13,886,777 $ 43,974,938 $ 23,504,762 $ 30,605,049 $ 12,316,770 2,910,228 3,492,705 $ 33,515,277 $ 15,809,475 $ 27,851,814 326,454 1,249,725 (18,968,332) $ 10,459,661 $ 11,840,385 300,000 ( 4,445,098) $ 7,695,287 The investment in capital assets represents its' investment in the school buildings (owned by the District), improvements, furniture and equipment (in all buildings), less any related debt (Bond Anticipation Notes) used to acquire the assets that is still outstanding. The District uses these capital assets to provide services to students; consequently these assets are not available for future spending. Although the District's investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. The negative balance of unrestricted net assets is due to debt for improvements on assets not owned by the District. The total net assets of the District increased by $2,764,374 during the current fiscal year. The total net assets of the District increased by $2,400,483 in 2004. These increases were primarily due to the results of operations in the general fund. (i.e., the payment of long term liabilities). 230 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis (Continued) Year Ended June 30, 2005 Governmental activities: Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District's Changes in Net Assets 2005 2004 Revenues: Program Revenues: Charges for Services $ 1,547,497 $ 1,585,613 Operating Grants and Contributions 17,984,399 16,857,824 Capital Grants and Contributions 459,489 457,195 General Revenues: Town Assessments 31,836,963 30,967,691 Earnings on investments 444,508 196,824 Miscellaneous 18,620 47,263 Total revenues 52,291,476 50,112,410 Expenses: Administration 1,028,203 907,306 Instructional 27,600,234 27,124,160 Other school services 4,168,355 4,011,373.

Governmental funds. The focus of the District's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the District's financial requirements. The unreserved fund balance is divided between designated balance and undesignated balances. General fund. The general fund is the chief operating fund of the District. At the end of the 2004, unreserved and undesignated fund balance was $1,689,450 while the total fund balance was $2,298,202. The total fund balance increased $927,595 during 2004. At the end of 2005, unreserved and undesignated fund balance was $1,835,521 while the total fund balance was $3,214,769. The total fund balance increased $916,567 during 2005. Expenditures for general District purposes totaled $49,889,972 for 2005 and $47,865,838 for 2004. The increase is primarily due to increases in instructional and other school services. Capital Projects. The High School Renovation project was considered a major program and has a total fund deficit of $20,720,568 for 2005 and $5,821,310 for 2004. This fund deficit is a result of the expenses for renovations of the school building which is funded with short-term bond anticipation notes. General Fund Budgetary Highlights While the District adopted a balanced budget for the general fund, the actual results for 2005 showed asurplus of $1,395,792 and a surplus of $1,228,794 for 2004. Actual revenues were $870,542 more than expected for 2005 and $3,372 more than expected for 2004. The 2005 favorable variance was due to $368,348 of more revenues received than anticipated of Chapter 70 General School Aid, $320,511 favorable variance in Regular Day Transportation Aid, $319,508 more received than budgeted of investment income and $154,714 unfavorable variance in other revenues. The 2004 positive difference was the result of favorable variances in state aid of approximately $13,000, in charges for service of $24,000, in investment income of $96,000 and unfavorable variances in other revenue of $123,000 and the capital assessment of $8,000. Actual expenditures were $581,900 lower than expected in 2005 and $1,173,829 lower than expected in 2004, due primarily to the strict control of discretionary expenses. Capital Assets and Debt Administration Capital Assets. By the end of the fiscal year the District has invested in a broad range of capital assets, including 2 school buildings, administration building, library books and textbooks, vehicles, computer and audiovisual equipment used in all of the buildings throughout the District. Total depreciation expense for 2005 and 2004 was $686,780 and $589,818 respectively. (See Note 5 page 31) Debt Administration. The District has general obligation bonds outstanding in the amount of $2,314,000 and bond anticipation notes outstanding of $25,255,000 with a payment schedule through 2010. (See Notes 8 and 9 pages 32 and 33) 233 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis (Continued) Year Ended June 30, 2005 Economic Factors Bearing on the District's Future During 2005, construction continued on the $33,400,000 renovation project at the High School. Since the low bid received was well below the amount budgeted for construction and there are adequate contingencies budgeted, we anticipate the project to be completed under budget. The School Committee annually updates a Long Range Facilities Plan, outlining various capital needs of the District. Immediate needs are evaluated by the towns and presented to voters at the annual town meetings. At their 2005 annual town meeting, Dennis voted to fund $160,000 for capital needs in its buildings. Yarmouth voted to fund $1,040,973 for the capital needs of its buildings at a special town meeting in October 2005. For the past thirty years, the towns have leased school buildings to the District under a lease that expired on June 30, 2005. At that time, each of the towns issued a license for the District to use the school buildings through June 30, 2006. In determining assessments for fiscal 2006, the member towns agreed that Dennis would assume an additional burden of $181,161 over the amounts calculated according to the Regional Agreement. This arrangement was in lieu of calculating the assessments according to a formula prepared by the Massachusetts Department of Education. Although a minimal increase in revenue from the state is anticipated in 2006, additional increases are not projected for the future. Any increases in expenditure budgets will have to be funded through increases in assessments to the towns. In anticipation of this economic climate, the District has restricted discretionary spending in order to accumulate unreserved fund balance. This will serve as temporary protection for basic education services, which could suffer as a result of expected significant increases in fixed and mandated costs. The District continues to utilize any opportunity for economy (i.e., through joint purchasing with other municipalities). To reduce future liabilities, there has been a particular focus on health and safety issues, which has the additional benefit of an improved working and learning environment.

Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current -period expenditures and, therefore, are deferred in the funds. In the statement of activities, a reserve for inventories does not exist and, therefore, is an expenditure, whereas in governmental funds a reserve for inventories is recorded. Internal service funds are used by management to account for health insurance and workers' compensation activities. The assets and liabilities of the internal service funds are included in the governmental activities in the Statement of Net Assets. In the statement of activities, interest is accrued on outstanding long-term debt, whereas in governmental funds interest is not reported until due. Long-term liabilities are not due and payable in the current period and, therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds.

However, in the Statement of Activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current period. 15,824,746 In the statement of activities, a reserve for inventories does not exist and, therefore, is an expenditure, whereas in governmental funds a reserve for inventories is recorded. In the Statement of Activities, all governmental transfers are eliminated, whereas in the governmental funds all transfers are reported. As a result, the change in net assets differs from the change in fund balance by the transfers made between governmental funds and proprietary/fiduciary funds. 60,000 7,286) Revenues in the Statement of Activities that do not provide current financial resources are fully deferred in the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances. Therefore, the recognition of revenue for various types of accounts receivable (i.e., real estate and personal property, motor vehicle, excise, etc.) differ between the two statements. This amount represents the net change in deferred revenue. ( 146,836) The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds and leases) provides current financial resources to governmet ill funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the Statement of Activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items. 801,000 In the statement of activities, interest is accrued on outstanding long-term debt, whereas in governmental funds interest, is not reported until due. ( 161,550) Some expenses reported in the Statement of Activities, such as capital leases, do not require the current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in the governmental funds. 55,749 Some expenses reported in the Statement of Activities, such as compensated absences, do not require the current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in the government funds. 22,662 Internal service funds are used by management to account for health insurance and workers' compensation activities.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District (the District), South Yarmouth, Massachusetts, was formed by the towns of Dennis and Yarmouth through an agreement dated June 15, 1954, to build and operate a high school facility to serve the towns. At special town meetings held in Dennis and Yarmouth on February 27, 1975, the voters amended this agreement whereby, beginning July 1, 1975, the District assumed responsibility for operating elementary and middle schools within the towns in addition to the high school. The financial statements of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as applied to local government units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant accounting policies of the District are described below. Reporting Entity Primary Government — The District is governed by a seven -member, representative School Committee from its member towns of Dennis and Yarmouth. Component Units — Component units are included in the District's reporting entity if their operational and financial relationships with the school district are significant. No component units are identified for the year ended June 30, 2005, which meet the criteria for inclusion in the accompanying basic financial statements. Joint Ventures — Municipal joint ventures pool resources to share the costs, risks, and rewards of providing services to its participants, the public, or others. The District is a participant in the following joint venture: Name Cape Cod Municipal Health Group Purpose To provide employee insurance benefits Address c/o Group Benefits Strategies 27 Midstate Office Park Suite 204 Auburn, MA 01501 2005 Assessment $ 2,815,114 Cape Cod Municipal Health Group (the Group) is governed by a representative steering committee. The School District is indirectly liable for debt and other expenditures of the Group and is assessed monthly for its subscribing employees based on premiums determined prior to the start of the fiscal year for each type of policy. Financial statements of the Group may be obtained by contacting the Group at the above address. 246 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) The School District is also a participant in the Cape Cod Collaborative and the N.E.E.D. Collaborative. The Cape Cod Collaborative, 5700 LeMay Avenue, Otis ANGB, MA 02542, provides special education services for eligible pupils, pre -kindergarten through grade 12. The N.E.E.D. Collaborative, Dennis - Yarmouth Regional School District, 296 Station Avenue, South Yarmouth, MA 02664, provides environmental education for the School district's fifth grades. The payments to the Cape Cod Collaborative and the N.E.E.D. Collaborative were $740,720 and $90,941, respectively, for fiscal 2005. Financial information may be obtained from the collaboratives by contacting them at the above addresses. The School District has no equity in the joint ventures. Government -wide and fund financial statements — The government -wide financial statements (the statement of net assets and the statement of changes in net assets) display information about the primary government (the District). These statements include the financial activities of the overall government, except for fiduciary activities. Eliminations have been made to minimize the double -counting of internal activities. The statement of activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each function of the District's governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a function and, therefore, are clearly identifiable to a particular function. Depreciation expense for capital assets that can specifically be identified with a function are included in its direct expenses. Depreciation expense for "shared" capital assets (for example, a school building is used primarily for instructional, school administration, operation and maintenance of facilities, and school Lunch services) are ratably included in the direct expenses of the appropriate functions. Fixed costs have been included as a function and not allocated for the statement of activities. Interest on general long-term liabilities is considered an indirect expense and is reported in the statement of activities as a separate line. Program revenues include 1) fees and charges paid by students and other recipients of goods or services offered by a given function, and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including member assessments, are presented as general revenues. The fund financial statements provide information about the District's funds, including its fiduciary funds. Separate statements for each fund category (governmental and fiduciary) are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds. - The District reports the following major governmental funds: • The general fund is the District's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. • The capital projects fund accounts for resources accumulated and payments made for the acquisition and improvement of sites, construction and remodeling of facilities, and procurement of equipment necessary for providing education programs for all students within the District. 247 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Additionally, the District reports the following fund types: • The fiduciary funds represent pension, private purpose and agency funds. Since by definition these assets are being held for the benefit of a third party (other local governments, private parties, pension participants, etc.) and cannot be used to address activities or obligations of the government, these funds are not incorporated into the government -wide statements. • Internal service funds (proprietary funds) account for workmen's compensation insurance, provided to other funds of the District on a cost -reimbursement basis. • The student activities agency fund (a fiduciary fund) accounts for monies held on behalf of student groups. Measurement focus, basis of accounting, and financial statement presentation — The government -wide and fiduciary fund financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus. The government -wide and fund financial statements are reported using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place. Nonexchange transactions, in which the District receives value without directly giving equal value in exchange, include grants and donations. Revenue from grants and donations is recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when measurable and available. The District considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after year-end. The member assessments and interest are considered to be susceptible to accrual. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when the district receives cash. Expenditures generally are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on general long-term debt, claims and judgments, early retirement and postemployment healthcare benefits and compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. General capital asset acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources. Budgetary Data - Budgets are presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting for all governmental funds. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end with the exception of those indicated as a fund balance reserve. The following procedures are used in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements. • During the Spring of each year, the District superintendent submits to the Board a proposed operating budget for the next fiscal year commencing July 1". This budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them. Included for comparison is the final budget for the current year ended June 30th. • Copies of the proposed budget are made available for public inspection and review by the any interested party. 248 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) • Once approved by the school committee, the member towns are assessed in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The amounts apportioned to each town are certified by the School District treasurer to the treasurers of the towns. Each town appropriates the amounts so certified at the next annual meeting. • Once adopted, the budget cannot be amended without member town approval. However, interim adjustments may be made by transfer of money from one category of appropriation to another within any given fund. Certain interim adjustments in expenditures during the year ended June 30, 2005, have been included in the final budget, as presented in the financial statements. Expenditures may not legally exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level. Encumbrance accounting is employed in the governmental funds and the internal service funds. Encumbrances (e.g., purchase orders and contracts) outstanding at year end are reported as reservations of fund balances and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities because the commitments will be reappropriated and honored during the subsequent year. Deposits and Investments — The cash balances of substantially all funds are pooled and invested by the District for the purpose of increasing earnings through investment activities and providing efficient management of temporary investments. The pool's investments are reported at fair value at year-end. Changes in the fair value of investments are recorded as investment earnings. Earnings on pooled funds are apportioned and paid or credited to the funds based on the average balance of each participating fund. Cash and Cash Equivalents — The District considers cash and cash equivalents to be cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Inventories Inventories are valued at cost or, if donated, at fair value when received, using the moving average method. Inventories of governmental funds are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased. Inventory in the Special Revenue Funds consist of expendable supplies of the Food Service Program. Capital Assets — Capital assets, which include land, building and improvements, and furniture and equipment, are reported in the government -wide financial statements. The District defines capital assets as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of two years. Purchased or constructed capital assets are reported at cost or estimated historical cost. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair value at the date of donation. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets' lives are not capitalized. Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Interest incurred during construction is not capitalized. 249 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) .• Buildings and improvements and furniture and equipment of the District are depreciated using the straight- line method over the following estimated useful lives: Assets Years Buildings and improvements 20-40 Library books and textbooks 3-5 Automobiles 5-10 Machinery and equipment 8-10 Compensated Absences — Under terms of employment agreements, employees earn vacation and sick leave in amounts varying with tenure and classification. The following is a summary of the benefits available: Sick -Leave Benefits Under terms of contracts covering employees of the School District, covered employees are entitled to between 12.5 and 17 days of paid sick leave annually. Unused sick leave may be accumulated indefinitely up to a maximum amount specified in the employee's applicable employment contract. 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 of the following rates: Bargaining Unit Sick Leave Buy -Back Rate Dennis -Yarmouth Secretaries and Assistant Hourly rate of pay at time of death, Association retirement, or separation times 25% of unused sick leave of up to a maximum accumulation of one hundred and eighty days for school year employees or two hundred days for year-round employees. Dennis -Yarmouth Educators' Association The rate is $30 per day of unused sick leave of up to a maximum accumulation of two hundred days. Dennis -Yarmouth School Administrators' Association 250 12% of the administrator's daily rate at time of death, retirement, or separation, per day of unused sick leave of up to a maximum accumulation of between two hundred and four hundred days. DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Bargaining Unit Sick Leave Buy -Back Rate Service Employees' International Union $3.25 per hour of unused sick leave of up to a maximum accumulation of one hundred and eighty days. As of June 30, 2005, the School District estimated the potential, maximum liability for sick pay to be $1,376,424, which could become payable over future years by the School District. The current portion and long-term liability account in the accompanying balance sheet reflects this amount. All vacation and sick pay is accrued when incurred in the government -wide service fund financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in the governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements. Long-term Obligations — In the government -wide financial statements long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable statement of net assets. Fund Equity — In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report reservations of fund balance for amounts that are not available for appropriation or are legally restricted by outside parties for use for a restricted purpose. Reserved fund balance also includes encumbrances outstanding at year end. In the government -wide financial statements only funds that are legally restricted are deemed "restricted". Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates. 2. 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 School 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 principally related to providing evening educational programs 251 Basis of Apportionment Enrollment of the respective towns in the related building(s) in the preceding year Pupil hours of the respective towns relating to such programs in the preceding year DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 2. School District Assessments (Continued) Costs to be Apportioned Basis of Apportionment Operating costs by facility, other Enrollment of the respective towns in the facility than Central Office costs in the preceding year Central Office and other district Total enrollment of the respective towns in the costs preceding year Massachusetts General Law, 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 fiscal 2005 and met the net school spending requirements. The minimum, local contribution is computed by the Commonwealth. The following are the fiscal 2005 minimum local contributions for the School District: Dennis $10,983,861 Yarmouth 14,975,469 $25,959,330 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, and capital costs. 3. General Fund Operations for Fiscal 2005 and Budgeted Expenditures for Fiscal 2006 Operations of the various School District funds for fiscal 2005 were funded in accordance with the General Laws of Massachusetts, including the operations of the General Fund which are described below: Revenues and other sources over expenditures and other uses $ 1.216.567 Provided by: Savings (deficiencies) from budgeted results (see statement of revenues— budget and actual) $( 33,158) Appropriated from unreserved fund balance 1,249,725 $ 1,216,567 252 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 3. General Fund Operations for Fiscal 2005 and Budgeted Expenditures for Fiscal 2006 (Continued) School District expenditures budgeted for fiscal 2005 totaled $40,744,781 at June 30, 2005, to be funded as follows: Operating Debt Provided by Expense Service Total Assessments to member towns $ 30,752,464 $ 1,084,500 $31,836,964 Estimated revenues 8,152,923 454,894 8,607,817 Transfer from unreserved fund equity 300,000 300,000 $ 39,205,387 $ 1,539,394 $40,744,781 The transfer of $1,249,725 from unreserved fund equity is included in the accompanying basic financial statements as fund equity reserved for expenditure as of June 30, 2005. In accordance with the General Laws of Massachusetts, the Director of the Bureau of Accounts has certified the amount of unencumbered excess and deficiency funds available July 1 2004 to be $1,687,885. The excess generally represents the portion of unreserved fund balance of the General Fund which may be used by the School District to fund current appropriations. 4. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments Cash and Cash Equivalents During 2005, the District implemented GASB 40, Deposits and Investment Risk Disclosures, which requires risk based disclosures for cash and investments. Cash and investments as of June 30, 2005 are classified in the accompanying financial statements as follows: Cash and investments - Governmental Activities $14,139,340 Cash and investments - Private Purpose Trust Funds 238,294 Cash and investments - Agency Funds 274,440 Total Cash and Investments $14,652,074 Cash and Cash Equivalents Deposits are in various financial institutions and are carried at cost or fair value in the cash of pooled deposits for trust 253 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 4. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments (Continued) funds. The carrying value is separately displayed on the statement of net assets as "Cash and Investments." Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. At year end, the District's carrying amount of deposits was $10,652,074, and the bank balance was $12,913,780. Of the bank balance $400,000 was covered by Federal Depository Insurance and $6,516,166 was covered by Depositors Insurance Fund and $1,577,453 was collateralized by Triple A rated securities. The remaining balance of $4,420,161 was held in uncollateralized accounts. The Town has not experienced any losses of funds in excess of federally insured limits held in any financial institutions. Management feels that the Town is not exposed to any significant credit risk related to cash. Investments Investments are stated at fair value for investment pools and historical cost for all other investments. The majority of investment activities are conducted through a contracted investment management firm and held in a pooled trust fund account in the Town's name. Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. The investments presented below are unrated. Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the Town's investment in a single issuer. The investments listed below were issued by two financial institutions which constitute 50% each of the total investments. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the Town's investments to market rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the Town's investments by maturity utilizing the specific identification method: Remaining Maturity (in Months) Investment Type Certificate of deposit Certificate of deposit Total investments 12 Months or Less Maturity Date $ 2,000,000 06/23/2006 2,000,000 06/20/2006 $ 4,000,000 254 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 5.

The School District does not contribute to this plan. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts contributes to the plan on behalf of cities, towns, and districts of the Commonwealth. In accordance with GASB 24, the amount contributed by the Commonwealth on behalf of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District to the MTRB should be disclosed. During fiscal 2005 MTRB paid retirees, the amount of $4,960,342 which was recorded as intergovernmental revenues and fixed costs in the accompanying combined statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund equities in the General Fund. Substantially all other School District employees are members of the Barnstable County Retirement Association (the Association), a cost-sharing, multiple -employer, defined -benefit, public -employee retirement system governed by provisions of Chapter 21 of the Massachusetts General Laws. The Association issues a publicly available financial report which can be obtained through the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Public Employee Retirement administration Commission (PERAC), One Ashburton Place, Boston Massachusetts 02108. The School District is required to pay into the Association its share of the remaining system -wide, actuarially -determined contributions, plus administration costs which are apportioned among the employers based on active covered payroll. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts reimbursed the Association for a portion of benefit payments for cost -of -living (COLA) increase made prior to July 1, 1997. The Association accepted the provisions of Chapter 17 of the Acts of 1997 providing for the shifting of responsibility of the COLA adjustments from the Commonwealth to the system. The School District's contributions to the Association, which contributions are governed by Chapter 32 of MGL, were equal to the contribution requirement for the years ended June 30, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002 at $ 749,893, $657,799, $577,875, and $559,066 respectively. Other Post -Employment Benefits In addition to the pension benefits described above, the School District provides health and dental insurance benefits to retirees, their dependents, and beneficiaries in accordance with Chapter 32B of MGL under various contributory plans. Specific benefit provisions and contributions rates are established by collective-bargaining agreements, state law, and School District ordinance. Currently, approximately 298 retirees are eligible to receive such benefits. All benefits are provided through a third -party insurance carrier that administers, assumes, and pays all claims. The School District contributes 60% of the insurance premiums with the remainder funded through pension benefit deductions. During fiscal 2005, other post -employment benefit payments, net of retirees' contributions, were $1,127,028. 8.

Litigation There are several lawsuits pending in which the District is involved. The District's counsel and insurance carriers estimate that the potential claims against the District, not covered by insurance, resulting from such litigation would not materially effect the financial statements of the District. 258 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 13. Grants The District receives significant financial assistance from federal and state governmental agencies in the form of grants. The disbursement of funds received under these programs generally requires compliance with terms and conditions specified in the grant agreements and is subject to audit by the District's independent auditors and other governmental auditors. Any disallowed claims resulting from such audits could become a liability of the general fund or other applicable fund. Based on prior experience, District administration believes such disallowance, if any, would be immaterial. 14. Risk Management The School District is exposed; to various risks of loss related to general liability, property and casualty, workers' compensation, unemployment, and employee health claims. The School District purchases general liability insurance and insures buildings and property through insurance policies. Losses are insured to the extent the losses exceed the deductibles. The School District provides employee health insurance benefits through participation in the Cape Cod Municipal Health Group. The Group had net assets of $992,695 at June 30, 2005. The School District is self-insured for workers' compensation claims. Aggregate stop -loss insurance is carried to cover annual claims in excess of $300,000. The School District has on deposit at June 30, 2005, cash of $137,787 which is available to pay claims. Government Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 10 requires that liabilities for self-insured claims be reported if it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These losses include an estimate of claims that have been incurred but not reported. The School District records it liabilities for claims in an expendable trust fund. The School District established a liability for workers' compensation claims based on estimates of future costs for open claims. Changes in the self- insurance expendable liability account for fiscal 2005 are as follows: Liability at beginning of year $ 120,380 Claims and administrative costs incurred for current year 75,915 Payment for current year ( 117,148) Liability at end of year $ 77.147 259 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 2005 15.
