Voter turnout in the elections of 1976 were: Election Date Voters Percent Presidential Primary March 2 1,757 14 Town Election April 12 5,798 47 State Primary Sept. 14 1,524 12 General Election Nov. 2 10,052 82 The excellent voter participation at the General Election, which includes 600 absentee ballots, is testimony to the concern of voters in the affairs of their country; however, local elections continue to receive less than desirable voter participation. The November General Election demonstrated dramatically that town voter precincts required realignment and redefinition. Immediate attention was given to this subject by your registrars and proposals made to the Board of Selectmen to divide Precincts 3 and 4. Hopefully the voters will act favorably at the 1977 Annual Town Meeting on the recommended new precinct alignment which would become effective at the Town Elections in 1978. Earlier implementation is precluded, since state statutes require implementation not earlier than one year after precincts are established. Finally, your Board of Registrars continuously works on updating voter lists. Respectfully submitted, John E. Hines, Chairman Richard G. Kinkead Louis F. Moruzzi Kathleen D. Johnson, Clerk BOARD OF REGISTRARS Report of the TREE WARDEN To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of Yarmouth During the year 1976, sixty-five shade and flow- ering trees were planted along roadways in the town. Many of these replacing trees that were lost due to disease and damage during the previous year. Varieties planted were Flowering Cherry, Norway Maple, Linden, and Pin Oak trees. The new plantings were all staked, with guy wires at- tached for protection. Throughout the year, many trees that were damaged by motor vehicles were treated with a fresh dressing of tree paint, in order to save them. Many low hanging tree limbs over sidewalks and intersections were also trimmed back. Also, during the year, forty samples of elm trees were taken throughout the town and sent to the 63 shade tree laboratories at the University of Mas- sachusetts for examination. The results showed that thirteen had wood decay and nineteen were victims of Dutch Elm disease. These trees have been felled and disposed of. In April dormant spray was applied by helicopter; this method used at this time of year due to the unpredictable wea- ther conditions and the importance of proper tim- ing. The foliage spraying of the elms took place during the summer months in an effort to control the Elm Leaf Beetle. The Nantucket Pine Tip Moth is still a problem in many areas of the town. This department is still carrying on its roadside spray program for this pest. It is hoped that homeowners will continue to have their private trees sprayed in an effort to save them. Over the years we have been able to notice a definite improvement in the strength and foliage of pine trees. Sprayed at the proper time, they are in a much healthier condition. In the spring months, Tent Caterpillars were sprayed in areas where they were found. During the summer months Poison Ivy was sprayed in problem areas and around beach and park areas. In the autumn, the Fall Web worms that were found were cut out of the trees and burned. Finally, the Gypsy Moth program is still in pro- cess with this department working with the De- partment of Natural Resources. This past year we placed moth traps at many locations throughout the town. The results showed that we have no serious problem areas in the town. I would once again like to thank the Police and Highway Departments and the citizens of the town for their co-operation during the past year. Sincerely, Jon L. Holmes Tree Warden and Moth Superintendent Report of the PARK DEPARTMENT To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The past year was one of continued progress, although no new areas were opened up or new projects started. Money was tight, and most of the work done was in the nature of routine main- tenance. We did have two men under the C.E.T.A. pro- gram until mid-April, and some clearing projects were accomplished at that time. Extensive repair work was necessary on the bridge at the Bass Hole, and vandalism is a continuous problem. In spite of the energy crisis, our beaches were busier than ever, and the beach receipts were up $2754.00 over the previous summer. Many days the beaches were crowded well beyond their satur- ation point, and on several occasions near disasters were averted by the competent actions of our high- ly skilled life guards. The various garden plots and traffic islands around town were planted in cooperation with the Yarmouth Garden Club whose members plan- ned and designed them. We hope this joint effort was enjoyed by all. In May, William Howard, Chairman of the Board of Park Commissioners, submitted his resignation which was regretfully accepted. Mr. Howard had served as Park Manager for several years, and he returned as a Park Commissioner after a period of retirement. The knowledge and experience he brought to this position was most valuable and appreciated. The Park Commissioners and the Park Department wish to take this opportunity to say, "Thank you, Bill, for your many years of de- voted service to this department and the Town of Yarmouth. Respectfully submitted, Park Commissioners George Kanuck, Chairman James Pazakis David E. Wood Paul Karras Jon Clark Report of the PLANNING BOARD To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: In 1976, seventy-five building lots were created (forty-five Approval Not Required Plans and three new subdivisions approved). Two Scenic Road Hearings were also held. The make-up of the Planning Board has changed during the last six months of 1976. Resignations were regretfully accepted from Florence Daigle and Alexander Todd, Jr., who had both devoted quite a bit of time and energy to this Board. The Board was extremely fortunate to have Attorney Ralph V. Phillips and Mr. John B. Hopkins, a Pro - 64 fessional Planner, We look forward State Zoning Act clarified. appointed to fill these vacancies. to working together on the new (Chapter 808) once the same is Sally F. Silver, Chairman Ralph V. Phillips, Vice-chairman Raymond P. Lawton, Clerk Edward A. Johnson John B. Hopkins Report of TOWN GOVERNMENT STUDY COMMITTEE To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: At the 1976 Annual Meeting of the Town of Yar- mouth, the following resolution was introduced by Selectman Cipolla and duly adopted: "BE IT RESOLVED that it is the sense of this Annual Town Meeting that the Moderator of the Town of Yarmouth shall appoint, within sixty (60) days from the conclusion of this meeting, a committee of qualified Town resi- dents to study the various forms of town gov- ernments available to the Town of Yarmouth and to evaluate each form with respect to the needs and. requirements of the Town of Yarmouth and to report its findings and rec- ommendations to the citizens of Yarmouth not later than ten (10) months from the date the committee is established, and, further, that the committee consisting of not less than sev- en (7) and not more than eleven (11) persons serving without compensation shall be known as the Yarmouth Town Government Study Committee." Pursuant to this resolve the Moderator appointed eleven residents who were introduced to one an- other and to the press on June 2, 1976. Thereafter the Committee has been meeting weekly. In pursuit of its study, a form of inquiry was adopted and various members were assigned by the Chairman to interview different Town officials, both elected and appointed, and to report to the full Committee with completed inquiry forms toget- her with suggestions and conclusions, if any. Five sub -committees were established consisting of tiree members each to con`er and make an in- depth study of their respective areas of town func- tions and operations, i. e. Natural Resources, Public Works, Finance and Records, Public Safety, and Administration and Planning, and report their rec- ommendations to the full Committee. These studies were made outside of the regular weekly meetings. The Committee in its full membership not only discussed and voted in respect to said subcom- mittee reports, but also conferred with two Yar- mouth Selectmen, two Dennis Selectmen, both Yar- mouth and Dennis Town Counsels, Yarmouth Town Moderator and Barnstable Town Moderator. On the basis of such discussions and reports, pre- liminary recommendations were voted. Copies of these were sent to those members of Town govern- ment affected by the recommendations. Invitations to attend a Committee meeting were sent suggest- ing that all who wished to criticize, question, or further discuss the recommendations attend. The studies of the Committee have led to the fol- lowing conclusions: 1. To reduce the number of elective offices and provide the voters with clearer, more intelli- gent choice of candidates for the important administrative and policy-making positions. 2. To make those positions in government serv- ice charged with the day-to-day operation of Town affairs, appointive, in order to provide professionalism in and continuity of opera- tion. 3. To centralize and combine public services of similar nature for greater efficiency in use of manpower and equipment, eliminating duplicity wherever possible. 4. To structure a direct line of authority from the voters through their elected Selectmen for the responsibility and capability of gov- erning Town affairs from policy implemen- tation. 5. To maintain traditional voter control of Town government through open Town Meeting and the open conduct of Town affairs responsive to its citizenry. None of this should be construed as a criticism of any Town employee or any of the many citizens who fill part-time positions, elected or appointed. The observations of the Committee are that the Town's employees and officials are good people and generally dedicated to their jobs. Throughout its deliberations the Committee has endeavored to keep the public informed. The news media has been very helpful in this respect, a fact the Committee appreciates. Our meetings have always been open. Visitors have been invited to participate. It is the hope of the Committee that the citizenry can approach the final decision making well prepared. Decisions made off-the-cuff are not always good decisions. 65 The Committee would like to express its appre- ciation and thanks to the people whom it inter- viewed. Without exception the members of the Committee were met with courteousness. The complete report will be presented at the 1977 Annual Town Meeting. Ralph V. Phillips, Chairman Howard B.

Loughlin, Resigned Betty -Jane Burkhardt, Recording Secretary Report of the YARMOUTH BICENTENNIAL COMMISSION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: When the Bicentennial Commission was created in 1974, it adopted the national bicentennial theme of "A past to remember, a future to mold". To that we added our personal philosophy that the cele- bration should be on-going, comprised of many projects and events, and should be varied to ap- peal to the greatest number of people. To leave lasting reminders was also a requisite. Our watch- words were to be community cooperation. From the raising and dedication of the Liberty Pole in November, 1974, to project planning and the naming of Yarmouth as a nationally recognized Bicentennial Community, we proceeded to a Colo- nial Cotillion in the spring of 1975. To mark Inde- pendence Day, 1975, the Commission sponsored a Marine Parade on Bass River with the Town of Den- nis. We hosted the musical production "1776" in cooperation with other Cape towns. During the period many projects were begun. Oral histories with senior Yarmouth natives were tape-recorded for the archives by Jo Angell and her committee. James J. Coogan, Jr., was commis- sioned to produce tape -slide lectures for those in- terested in Yarmouth history. The design of the Heritage Quilt, was undertaken by architect Wal- ter Gaffney and Commissioner Priscilla Sherman and- work begun. The Commission purchased an official bicentennial painting of the Town and had prints reproduced for sale. In a group effort chaired by Commissioner Mary Ellen Hautanen the Yar- mouth Commemorative Medallion was designed. One thousand of these were struck, numbered in series, and placed on sale at Town Office. A few prints and medallions are still available at moder- ate cost. The long anticipated bicentennial year was ushered in at Town Meeting with Charles A. Hol- brook, Jr.'s dramatic reading of Yarmouth's orig- inal Declaration of Independence, June 20, 1776. The Commission displayed its partial collection of contemporary articles for the Time Capsule and urged townspeople to contribute items pertinent to 1976 everyday living. While items for the capsule were being assem- bled, another collection was being implemented. We completed the purchase of historic pre- and post -Revolutionary period flags. With the assistance of custodians Al Bachelder and Charles Taylor they were displayed daily on the Town Office green from Flag Day, during the 21 -Day Flag Salute and on into autumn. Kept at Town Office, the flags belong to the people of Yarmouth and may be bor- rowed by schools and civic organizations. Several schools have availed themselves of the privilege. Meanwhile, the long-awaited Heritage Quilt was completed. It was formally introduced at a tea on May 16. The admiration and gratitude must go to its creator, Priscilla Sherman, and the church- women of the town who created this permanent work of art. The quilt has since been exhibited in many locations off Cape and on. Our thanks go to Audrey Todd who composed and edited the Heritage Quilt Booklet. Private do- nations gathered by Mrs. Todd enabled the publi- cation of the booklet which contains historical data on each quilt square as well as a photo of the quilt. Booklets and color post cards of the quilt are on sale at Town Office at small cost. On July 5, 1975, Yarmouth held its gala Inde- pendence Day celebration. That it was the most successful fete in town history was due to the tire- less efforts of Josephine Lakin, the day's Chair- person. Thousands lined the route to watch Yarmouth's longest parade ever. Floats, fire engines, march- ing units, antique autos, decorated bicycles, youths 66 in colonial dress, rough riders, and even an ele- phant were seen. Through the generosity of a score of local merchants, business men, and. bank- ers, many prizes were awarded. We are deeply grateful to Mrs. Lakin and those in the community who made the day an unqualified success. Following the parade the D -Y Jaycees sponsored an old-fashioned Field Day at D -Y High School Field. Those who picnicked prior to the sporting events enjoyed the performance of the E Street Children's Theater. Hundreds watched a doll car- riageparade, games, races and a pie -eating con- test. The Jaycees earned everyone's appreciation for their civic -mindedness. To complete the celebration a spectacular, hour- long display of fireworks was exploded on Bass River Beach. Through the cooperation of Chief Richards, Deputy Clemence and the Yarmouth Fire Department the extraordinary exhibition was made possible. We also wish to thank Chief Reynolds and the Yarmouth Poli Department for their su- perior handling of vehicular traffic. Interrupting the ordinarily quiet season of au- tumn was the October 24th burial and dedication of the time capsule. The 7000 lb. cement capsule was generously donated and moved by Maurice Linhares. It was prepared, housed, packed and sealed at the Highway Department through the courtesy of Highway Surveyor Lloyd Dauphinais. Men of the department prepared the site and assisted at the burial at Town Office. Within the capsule are hundreds of contemporary items, chil- dren's artwork, signatures and toys, books, maga- zines, records, pictures, and documents from town departments, businesses, clubs, churches, and youth groups. When the capsule is opened during the Tercentenary, the contents will reveal a picture of daily life in Yarmouth, circa 1976. Through the efforts of Town Surveyor John Newton and the Yarmouth Planning Board the capsule site on Town Office green is registered with the Barnstable County Registry of Deeds. A catalog of contents may be seen at Town Office. As 1976 drew to a close, funded projects were completed. The permanent slide lectures of Yar- mouth history were finished and presented. Proj- ects and events were registered with and accepted by the National Archives. Plaques for two historic sites, the Ancient Cemetery grave of the heirs of Peregrine White and the Packet Landing Park, were commissioned. A marker for the time capsule site was selected. As a final act new flags and poles were purchased for Town Office and other depart- ments. Work on the permanent framing of the quilt began. The bicentennial effort has not been solely the work of the Bicentennial Commission. Thousands of townspeople participated. The support of nu- merous town departments and officials was in- volved. Notable in their assistance have been the Selectmen, Administration Secretary Catherine Reid, and Ann Barthelmas, Sandy Clifford, Linda Homer, and Barbara Johnson of the Selectmen's Depart- ment. Town Clerk Kathleen Johnson and the women of her department have been generous with advice and assistance. Additionally we were assisted on many occasions by the departments of Assessing, Building, Engineering, Fire, Highway, Police, and Sanitation the Beautification Committee, the Town Libraries and various Boards. We have enjoyed our special relationships and feel we have fulfilled our promises. Community cooperation has been a true watchword. We thank you all. Respectfuly submited, Marilyn E. Tanner, Chairman Report of the IMPROVEMENT AND BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth: During the year of 1976, the Improvement and Beautification Committee has worked to improve different areas of the Town. As in the past, we had Christmas lights placed on the permanent tree in the Yarmouth Port Village Green as well as on the trees erected at Bakers Square and DeSilver Square. Renovations have been made to the iron work pump on Route 6A and we are still working to complete this project. Flow- ers were planted through the help of the Park De- partment at various sections of the Town and also at the Town Hall. A gift was also made to help defray the cost of the Bicentennial Quilt Frame. Although too numerous to mention, we are par- ticularly grateful to homeowners and businesses in the Town of Yarmouth who add to its beautifica- tion. For example in the businessc area, we noted particularly the Yarmouth Gardens on Route 6A, the Home Federal Savings in West Yarmouth and the Lobster Hut in South Yarmouth. We certainly appreciate the efforts of the business people during 67 their busy season and thank them as well as the town employees who are always so helpful. Respectfully submitted, Irma M. Spurr, Chairman Howard C. Doane, Jr. Mrs. Marjorie Martin Mrs. Ruth Porter Report of the DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES To the Board of Selectmen and Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth: CONSERVATION In these times of rapid growth and development people have become increasingly aware of the need for unspoiled land for the common good of all citizens. This, then, is the basic purpose of Yar- mouth's Conservation Areas: the preservation of natural areas such that everyone may enjoy their scenic beauty. Yarmouth maintains five Conservation Areas which are located at Meadowbrook Road, Higgins Crowell Road, Willow Street, Winslow Gray Road, and North Dennis Road. Three of these contain walking trails while the Meadowbrook Road area consists of a short boardwalk through a swamp. The North Dennis Road area on Crab Creek has a small fishing pier. A guide booklet including maps of the trails as well as a description of the vegeta- tion and natural features found will be printed and issued in the near future. All areas continue to show signs of much use and are under a continual expansion program. The trail at Willow Street (Dennis Pond) will be continued into the new parcel of land containing 13 acres on the south east side of Dennis Pond which was purchased during the last Town meeting. Under the Herring Run Reclamation Program two new cement sluice ways were constructed at Forest and Winslow Gray Roads. Again this year we had a good herring and alewives run. The department investigated 126 calls for Wet- lands under Chapter 131, Section 40. SHELLFISH The Town purchased a hydraulic clam dredge to be used in shellfish reclamation by turning over hard bottoms, removing and breaking up seaweed such as Staghorn (Codium) and in other aquatic farming projects such as seeding and harvesting. Commercial clam harvest was excellent in the Follins Pond area. Elsewhere in the town areas are spotty but show a small increase. Oysters remain stable in limited supply. Quahogs (the more plentiful shellfish) are more than holding their own due to the planting pro- gram. Bass River was closed to scallops this year due to the great number of seed. This fall should see another plentiful harvest if the winter kill is light. Lewis Bay had another lean year in scallops. The reclamation of the bay with the shellfish dredge during 1977 should improve future harvest. Water Sampling stations were checked weekly by the town biologist and continue to show our town to have clean water in the shellfish areas. Shellfish permits were down this year due to Bass River being closed for scallops.

Respectfully submitted, MORRIS I. JOHNSON, JR. Supervisor, Department of Natural Resources Report of the DEPARTMENT OF SANITATION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of Yarmouth For the second consecutive year since the incep- tion of the town operated sanitary landfill which commenced in 1974, deposits at the landfill have increased. Solid waste receipts in 1976 amounted to 124,478 cubic yards or 15% above the previous year. Septic waste (septic tank pumpings) received 68 and treated at the landfill in 1976 totalled 6,423,- 500 gallons - an increase of 21% over 1975. While every attempt is continuously made to adhere to prescribed state standards for disposal and treat- ment of septic waste, it must be reported that the existing facilities are, at best, primitive. The con- struction of the approved septic waste facility is eagerly awaited. The sanitary landfill was open 362 days during 1976 with closings occurring on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day. Actual count of vehicle traffic into the landfill during 1976 was 128,510 with peak days rising to approximately 800 vehicles on holiday weekends during the sum- mer months. Revenues received from landfill fees during 1976 amounted to $30,687.00 to include $6,840.00 which assumes a .50% share of the $1.00 fee charged for citizens purchase of beach/landfill stickers. A thorough study of the landfill fee struc- ture was completed this year and compared with several towns on Cape Cod. A revised fec sched- ule is planned for implementation early in 1977. In addition, this department frequently assists various other town departments having 'a require- ment for equipment usage. In turn this depart- ment has enjoyed assistance from sister town de- partments for which appreciation is expressed to those departments. Respectfully submitted, PETER G. HOMER, Superintendent Report of the PLUMBING AND GAS INSPECTOR To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: and Citizens of Yarmouth Submitted herewith is my 1976 report as Plumb- ing Inspector. During the year I conducted 1,050 plumbing inspections, an increase of 15% over 1975. Also, 976 gas inspections were made representing an increase of 16% over the previous year. Respectfully submitted, James McDonald Plumbing & Gas Inspector Report of the ROAD STUDY COMMITTEE To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: This report is submitted by the Road Study Com- mittee created by a resolution made at the 1976 Annual Town Meeting. Initial meetings were devoted to discussion and development of an intelligent approach to this program. A listing of all private ways was com- piled by a committee member disclosing that there are approximately six hundred twenty-five (625) private ways in Yarmouth. Further, it was learned that there is a list of approximately one hundred sixty (160) applications for acceptance of private ways currently on file at Town Hall, which have not been taken. These applications cover a period of fifteen years (from 1961 thru 1976). It should be noted that some of these streets have petitioned a second, and even a third time as of the time of this report. In an effort to expedite the work of this com- mittee it was the decision of the membership to inspect personally, and immediately, the one hun- dred sixty streets that had been petitioned in order to better appraise the scope of this project. Inspection covered road conditions and needed repairs, berm repair or berm installation where none has been provided, shoulder work where re- quired, additional drainage basins in flood prone areas, and corrections to existing basins which were installed too high or in such a manner as to pre- vent run-off, or in some other way defeat the pur- pose for which they were installed. A great many daytime hours were spent riding these roads, in some instances walking, to valuate the require- ments. Many hours of research by the Water Department to determine additional water main requirements were spent. At subsequent meetings, after substantial dis- cussion, and, inasmuch as these one hundred sixty streets were scattered over all parts of Yarmouth and representative of conditions in general, it was agreed that these streets be used as a basis in developing a cost formula. This formula to be applied to develop the cost which would be in- volved in accepting all six hundred private ways in Yarmouth. These costs would cover the follow- ing: 69 1. Legal Work 2. Engineering Work 3. Water Main Installation 4. Surface Preparation ) 5. Drainage 6. Shoulder Work ) $1,200,000 1,600,000 4,536,000 6,900,000 Total $14,236,000 Inspection of streets, incident to this report, sug- gests a serious need to review and update the Planning Board Regulations. Developers and build- ers should be made to either sod or seed land ad- jacent to the pavement (at least six feet). Wood chips wash out with the first heavy rain and wash into basins where they swell and cancel any leach- ing value the basin may have had. This makes for a constant maintenance problem that costs the Town of Yarmouth thousands of dollars per year. Inspection of both new and older streets gives evidence of a serious need for qualified engineer- ing 'know-how' on the Planning Board to insure that streets not be constructed without engineering assurance that future problems for the town will not arise. Strict engineering supervision of devel- oper operations is required to insure that the Plan- ning Board regulations are complied with. It is recommended that the Planning Board hire a qualified engineering consultant to oversee the construction and to assure adherence to Planning Board regulations. This could possibly be done by utilizing qualified retired people on a per diem basis. Recommend that the Planning Board regulations be amended to require ALL unbuilt subdivision roads, or portions thereof, be constructed to the rules and regulations in force at the time of con- struction. This Committee was pleased to note that due to the Planning Board's foresight in sponsoring an article in the two past Town Meetings to accept newly constructed roads and if the Planning Board continues this practice, there should be no addi- tions to the current list of private ways. Recognizing that the acceptance of some six hundred -odd streets at one time would impose a tremendous work load on the staff at Town Hall, and on the Town's Attorney's ability to do title searches on this volume of properties, not to men- tion the burdensome taxpayers expense, Commit- tee recommends that: (a) The Town accepts a minimum of forty (40) streets per year from the existing private way list until all streets are taken with preference given to the petition list. OR (b) Acceptance of the one - hundred sixty (160) streets that have already been petitioned in the 1977 Town Meeting, since residents of these streets have shown enough interest to enter such petitions. Also, acceptance of one hundred fifty (150) streets per year each year thereafter until all streets have been accepted. OR (c) All six hundred -odd streets be accepted at once, and proceed with upgrading to Planning Board specifications at the rate of fifty (50) per year until the project is completed. First consideration, in any case, should be given to to working on existing backlog of petitioned streets. The Road Study Committee recommends that the Town investigate the possibility of having the title searching done by a title searching company and having it certified to the Town Counsel. We recommend that the Highway Department take over the maintenance of roadways and that the major construction be put out to bid by con- tractors. This work to be done under Highway, Enginering, and Water Department supervision. The Road Study Committee is opposed to con- sideration of a "Betterment By-law". This opposition is predicated on the fact that residents of private ways have been paying taxes on the same tax basis as residents on Town roads. To impose a "Betterment By-law" would be an undue hardship in many cases, and would constitute a duplication of costs for any age group, inasmuch as the devel- opment costs would have been built into the price paid by the home buyer. The home buyer would expect that the roads in his development were built to town specifications as a release from the Planning Board was granted or that at least the lot had been approved by the Planning Board. The use of private ways for vehicular traffic, in most instances, is not limited to the residents of the specific area but rather is available to all resi- dents of the town. It is, therefore, our considered opinion that the cost of accepting streets should be shared by all taxpayers as is presently done. This Committee recognizes that the town has voted for a sanitary sewer system, which is a long term phased project; however, to put off accept- ance until the road has been sewered would then require major reconstruction of these streets. In most cases minor maintenance would save the town from huge reconstruction costs. The Road Study Committee recommends that in future years the town accept roads by the follow- ing proceedure; 70 1. Collect a list of the streets petitioned within a year ending on August 31 of each year. 2. Hold an informal public hearing on the list the third week of September. 3. A preliminary list compiled and inspected on site. 4. A final list of roads to be laid out be deter- mined by the Board of Selectmen, Engineer- ing, Highway, and Water Departments. 5. All petitions not passed on favorably be re- jected and would have to be repetitioned for the next year. 6. Layouts drawn for hearing in February. 7. Insertion into the Town Warrant. Since the resolution which appointed this Corn- mitee calls for the Committee to establish an order of priority the following list of streets is recom- mended for the 1977 Town Meeting. In future years the above proceedure should be followed.

(resigned) Report of the RECREATION COMMISSION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: During 1976 the Yarmouth Recreation Commis- sion sponsored or co-sponsored fifteen programs involving nearly one thousand participants in base- ball, basketball, gymnastics, hockey, soccer, soft- ball, tennis, weight -training, arts and crafts. The Commission sincerely appreciates the co- operation of program heads and is especially grate- ful to the many volunteers who gave their invalu- able time to assist in the development of athletic skills and sportsmanship in the youth of Yarmouth. Respectfully submitted, Robert K. Sullivan, Chairman 71 Report of the VETERANS' AGENT To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: Herewith is the 1976 Annual Report of the Dis- trict Department of Veterans' Services: The Department of Veterans' Services during 1976 handled 7,211 visits to our office and 7,430 incoming telephone calls. We have tried to handle each and every case with speed, courtesy and dig- nity. In time of need, we try to make these vet- erans feel like human .beings, and their problems answered as fast as possible. It is the responsibility of this Department, under Chapters 115 and 483 of the Mass. General Laws, to aid, assist, advise, file claims and explore each avenue of resource and revenue for these veterans and their dependents. We try to keep abreast of laws governing State, Federal and local programs that might benefit any veteran and try to implement these programs in behalf of the veteran. It is also at this time that I am proud to an- nounce the appoinment of George C. Christopulos as our Investigator. This year will be remembered as a very sad year by this Department and the hundreds of peo- plethat had any contact with Charles H. "Chucky" Cross, Veterans' Agent, and Carl Hiler, Selectman, town' of Sandwich, and Chairman of the District Board for Veterans' Services, who passed away during the year. There have been many words spent in testimonial on these gentlemen, and below is my feeling toward their passing: "Let us not mourn their going; Let us rejoice to know That - earthly labors finished - They were prepared to go. Let us emulate their virtues That men to us may say The world is brighter, better, Because they passed this way." Respectfully, SIDNEY L. CHASE, Director and Veterans' Agent District Board: Howard Marchant, Yarmouth, Chmn. Henry Kelley, Dennis William Eshbaugh, Barnstable George Benway, Mashpee Benjamin Fleet, Sandwich Report of the BOARD OF SELECTMEN To the Citizens of Yarmouth: The observance and celebration of our country's bicentennial year by the citizens of Yarmouth will be remembered for the many colorful events ar- ranged by a most dedicated Bicentennial Com- mission under the leadership of Mrs. Marilyn (Pen- ny) Tanner, chairman and participated in by the hundreds of town citizens. From the Bicentennial Ball to the Independence Day parade culminating in a huge fireworks display in the vicinity of Bass River, Yarmouth's contribution to America's birth- day was indeed memorable. To the members of the Bicentennial Commission and all the citizens who helped and participated throughout the year a heartfelt "thank you" is extended. A major step forward was taken in addressing the serious sewage problems that exist in certain sections o fthe town. At a Special Town Meeting on August 24 and 25 the voters approved two proj- ects totalling 2.4 millions of dollars which, with 90% state and federal reimbursements, should begin a much needed improvement in the matter of sewage disposal. . This board attaches the highest priority to this subject, since the ultimate solution will not only alleviate conditions that are contrary to proper health standards but the protection of our valuable water resources will be greatly enhanced. As of the time this report is being prepared the approval of the proposed projects and applications for re- imbursable funds are awaited from state and feder- al agencies. Hopefully 1977 will see initial efforts toward construction of badly needed facilities. A long-standing problem concerning serious drainage problems in many areas of the town was further aggravated by an unusually cold winter. This matter coupled with acceptance by the town of private ways received serious study by a Road Study Committee. Continuous examination is on- going and a prioritization of problem areas should be accomplished in 1977. Elimination of these prob- lems is dependent on availability of funds that the voters are willing to appropriate. In this regard, the Annual Town Meeting in 1977 may see the largest appropriation ever asked for roads and drainage work in Yarmouth. Turning to Yarmouth's governmental structure, almost a year's study by the Town Government Study Committee (see separate committee report 72 elsewhere in this report) addressed an across-the- board evaluation of the town government organiza- tional arrangement and will submit substantive rec- ommendations at the 1977 town meeting. The study committee's report will receive in-depth anal- ysis with a view toward adopting those changes considered to be appropriate. Change will not occur for change's sake — but only because the phenomenal growth that Yarmouth has undergone in the past 25 years may point to the need for change. In the final analysis the citizens of the town will make that decision. This board wants to thank all of the town em- ployees and the citizens of Yarmouth for their help- fulness, understanding and cooperation which makes serving the citizens of Yarmouth the privi- lege your board believes it is. Finally, Yarmouth needs the continuing help of all its citizens in a variety of ways. In this connec- tion, at the rear of this report is a form those citi- zens who may wish to volunteer their talents and time are invited to use. Please give this matter your serious consideration. Only you the citizen can make Yarmouth a better place to live. Howard W. Marchant, Chairman Bradford L. Tallman Ralph Cipolla, Jr. Board of Selectmen Report of the ASSESSORS' DEPARTMENT To the Citizens of Yarmouth: Keeping up with the ever increasing assessing laws and regulations within our State is a never ending process. With this in mind, the Chairman of Assessors attended the annual School of Asess- ing held in Amherst at the University of Massachu- setts and he also attended the seminars held by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Bureau of Corporations and Taxation. The Assessors are most appreciative for the co- operation shown to them by all the departments for the town, and to the assessars' staff may we say, "Thank you girls for your faithful devotion to duty during the year." Respectfully submitted, Bradford L. Tallman Howard W. Marchant Ralph Cipolla, Jr. Report of the POLICE DEPARTMENT To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth Submitted herewith is the report of Police De- partment activities for the year 1976. As you can see by the following Activities Report there has been a substantial rise over last year's statistics insofar as arrests, (both juvenile and adult). Complaints processed, protective custody, fatal accidents and almost every other area re- lated to law enforcement have taken a substantial upswing. It is difficult to determine whether or not these higher statistics represent improved police investi- gative and apprehension techniques or an increase of criminal activity in the town. I would prefer to believe that the police are becoming more effective in their efforts to control the criminal element. One of the major contributing factors in the solv- ing and/or prevention of crime has been citizen involvement. Yarmouthites are beginning to recog- nize the fact that they are largely responsible for the control of crime in their town. By being alert to suspicious persons or incidents and notifying the police department they are assuring themselves and their neighbors of improved protection. There is no way that we, the police, can guar- antee a crime -free environment in Yarmouth. We do, however, have a complement of officers who are prepared to sacrifice themselves, if necessary, in order to protect you and yours from suffering at the hands of the criminal. Two things we ask in return: First, that you support us by becoming involved, by alerting us to suspicious persons or happenings, and, Second, that you further support us via your attendance at Town Meetings. We, the Town of Yarmouth, cannot afford to close our eyes to the goings on around us. Too often we con ourselves into the belief that it'll "go away" if we wait long enough. That by ignoring it we cure it. Two things we can be sure of: It'll not go away and by ignoring it we can assure ourselves of being losers. Again, I would like to thank the citizens of the town, the Board of Selectmen, and the many other town departments that have been invaluable to us in our quest to rid the town of the criminal element.

This has all been done in conjunction with the Yar- mouth Police Department, more specifically, Detec- tive Prada and Detective Souve. Our combined efforts have resulted in the prosecution of many offenders. It is my wish that sometime in the future we may establish a Special Force consisting of one detective and one fireman to work in the arson 14 field. This year, the department is requesting funding for a new modular ambulance. This will replace a 1973 Dodge which has 49,000 miles on the chas- sis which is equivalent to 100,000 miles on the en- gine. The new ambulance is designed to provide more storage space and almost double the working area. Our fire and rescue personnel include 10 EMT's, 4 Paramedics and 6 men who have at least Ad - 25 vanced Red Cross plus CPR certificates. EMTA 16 training requires 81 hours, including 10 hours at the hospital, plus 100 points to be accumulated 19 within a 2 year period to remain active. The Para - 32 medic training program requires 400 hours of form - 4 al training, and must be an EMTA and maintain it. 11 In addition, recertification requires approximately 21 50 hours training. 19 We are asking the townspeople to consider a 10 new fire station in the Old Town House Road Area. 10 This central location will allow more expedient res - 6 ponse of the rescue and fire service to the town. 3 Our present Headquarters station was built in 1931, 23 and the living quarters were designed for 2 per - 22 sons to man the telephones 24 hours a day. We 10 now have a 5 man shift living in these quarters and 45 20 men that are living, in shifts, in this apartment. 26 Living conditions was one of the main factors in the recent contract negotiations. 302 I have asked the Insurance Rating Bureau to make a survey of the town. The last survey was done in 1965. The pickup truck which is now used by the Deputy for inspections was due to be replaced this year. We are retaining the pickup and I am requesting a new car. Our department has increased inspections of all motels and commercial buildings. All motels in town are inspected upon opening and at least twice a year. Year round motels are inspected 247 quarterly.

BOUCHARD, Town Collector Report of the PERSONNEL BOARD To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: As is its function, the Personnel Board undertook its annual salary and job classification review of Town employees during the autumn of 1976. In cases of merit, salary step raises were recom- mended, although few job classification changes were approved. In the face of the Collective Bar- gaining Law the Board attempted to keep strin- gent guidelines. The Board also proposed several by-law changes which were on the warrant at Annual Town Meeting. Yarmouth, its needs, and its budget have grown enormous in the past few years. These factors and the unionization of most town departments have emphasized the immediate need for a profes- sional upgrading of the personnel system. In ac- cord with the Selectmen the Board voted unani- mously to seek a consultant firm to conduct a Personnel Management Study. The results of the study will be made public before being acted upon at a future Town Meeting. Respectfully submitted, MARILYN E. TANNER for M.K.L. MARSHALL K. LOVELETTE, Chm. JOHN A. SCOTT, JR. BENJAMIN. P. TRACTON EDWARD R. SULLIVAN CATHERINE L. REID, Secretary 77 Report of the HISTORIC COMMISSION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The responsibility of the Historic Commission is to oversee and maintain such historic sites as the Windmill and the Baxter Gristmill. Since installing fire and smoke alarms at these sites vandalism has been minimal. Shingles have had to be replaced from time to time, and it is im- possible to keep the codfish atop the Windmill. The severe windstorm in February 1976 cost us one arm on the Windmill. This was repaired by Ray McKeon who did the restoration work. Last summer the Beautification Committee plan- ted some flowers at Windmill Park which added immeasurably to the beauty of the area. The Baxter Gristmill has been completely re- stored and is operational. It has been opened up from time to time, especially to take school children through to see how it works. Respectfully submitted, LEROY P. ROGERS, JR. MORRIS I. JOHNSON, JR. HOWARD A. SPURR Report of the OLD KING'S HIGHWAY REGIONAL Historic District Yarmouth Committee To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The year of 1976 was a very busy one for the Yarmouth Historic District. We had 250 applica- tions, 210 being for new homes, businesses or improvements. 188 of these were approved, some- times with modifications by the Committee. 22 were declined for various reasons, and 40 were Certificates of Exemption for which no formal hear- ing is necessary. Until the act was amended, in late 1975, the Committee met once a month but starting at the beginning of 1976, we have found it necessary to meet twice a month as the District covers all prop- Traffic Painting 61 miles (striping) In 1976 two major items of equipment were purchased, a new catch basin cleaner and a new road sweeper. An average of 12 catch basins per day can be cleaned or approximately 3,000 per year, weather conditions, equipment break -down and personnel staffing permitting. The town's investment in a new catch basin cleaner compared to previously con- tracting for the work has, within less than 6 months, returned to the town its original cost. Assuming that street sweeping can be accom- plished during an average 9 to 10 month period, with 2 sweepers, approximately all town roads can be swept at least once annually, weather and other factors permitting. Clearing of ice and snow continues to tax the department to its fullest extent. Six sanders/plows are supplemented with between 20 and 30 con- tracted vehicles. In addition to Highway Depart- ment and contract equipment, equipment and per- sonnel of the Sanitation Department are usually pressed into service. Finally, this department provides assistance to all other town departments and the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District at considerable savings to the town. The cooperation received from all departments, and the dedicated service of all Highway Depart- ment personnel is greatly appreciated. Respectfully submitted, Lloyd H. Dauphinais Highway Surveyor Report of the WIRING INSPECTOR To the. Honorable Board of Selectmen and Citizens of Yarmouth I hereby submit my report as inspector of Wiring for the year 1976. A total of 1,116 wiring inspections were made during 1976 representing an increase of 24% over the year 1975. Respectfully submitted, John Stoner Wiring Inspector 78 Annual Report of the CAPE COD PLANNING and Economic Development Commission To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The Commission's efforts in obtaining Federal and State funds have been rewarded by the re- ceipt of considerable sums of money for individual towns, and also by a spirit of mutual confidence that our local governments are effectively utilizing the CCPEDC for the benefit of their citizens. Some of the major accomplishments and in- volvements that marked the work of the CCPEDC in 1976 are: Public transportation program for the elderly and handicapped funded by a $368,000 fed- eral grant to Barnstable County .. . Creation of a Cape Cod Business Development Corporation that can financially assist busi- nesses to locate or expand on the Cape . Creation of a Cape Cod Regional Transporta- tion Authority that can receive 50% reimburse- ments from the State for operating public transportation services . . . Approval of a Five -Year Transportation Plan that provides 80% federal share of capital equipment purchases for local and regional public transportation .. . Use of Local Growth Policy Statements to de- velop a Regional Growth Policy Statement for Cape Cod .. . The Commissions 208 Wastewater Management program will be coming to a close in the fall of 1977 and its final report will offer recommenda- tions to deal with potential water problems, in- cluding land use measures, new regulatory devices, construction of Town or District sewer systems, innovative homewaste treatment systems, and water quality monitoring. With the understanding that the ability to imple- ment planning recommendations rests with Town and County government, this growing commitment is what is needed to make the Commission an ef- fective and useful resource. The delivery of ser- vices to Cape Cod citizens, the protection of the Cape's natural resources and the improvement of the Cape's economy all benefit through this spirit of cooperation. Thomas E.

Respectfully submitted, Francis A. Richard Chief of Department Report of the FIRE STATION STUDY COMMITTEE To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The Yarmouth Fire Station Study Committee con- tinued to meet this year and looked into possible sites for the proposed new fire station building. It was recommended in 1973, as a result of a survey by the Municipal Protection Department of Insurance Service Office of the New England Reg- ion, relative to the location of Fire Stations in the town of Yarmouth, that a new Fire Station be built in a more central location. Basically this survey found that new growth had shifted density areas. The three existing stations originally covered the town very well in that the density was heaviest in these areas. Today with the rapid development north of Rte. 28 and west of Station Ave., the density of these areas has increased and continues to increase at a fast rate. We concur with the above mentioned survey that a new station is necessary in a more central lo- cation. The presently manned South Yarmouth Station is too close to the southeasterly border of town; which creates longer runs to fires than the pro- posed site plus necessitating starting from a more congested area. The committee has agreed to make use of town owned land south of the Town Dump site. 80 This location was chosen for it's geographical location but equally -important, if not more so, for it's easy traffic flow. Respectfully submitted, ARTHUR H. JOHANSON, Chairman CLYDE C. HACKETT FRANCIS RICHARDS, Chief JOHN H. CLEMENCE, Deputy Chief Report of the HIGHWAY SURVEYOR To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: and Citizens of Yarmouth The Yarmouth Highway Department has a multi- faceted area of responsibility including the main- tenance of 316 miles of road (1,074 roads), 5,206 drainage catch basins and hundreds of traffic, safe- ty and street signs to be placed and/or replaced in the course of a year. Within both budgetary and manpower limitations efforts are made to main- tain, sweep, plow, sand, as required, all roads, public or private. While the goal is to clean all catch basins at least once annually to alleviate drainage problems, the aforementioned restrictions unfortunately preclude accomplishing such a goal. The department is staffed with thirteen men and one clerk. There are 2 foremen, 1 mechanic, 1 sign maker, 2 sweeper operators, 1 catch basin cleaner operator, 1 light truck driver, 3 heavy truck drivers and 2 heavy equipment operators in addition to the undersigned elected Highway Surveyor. The department has been exceedingly fortunate in be- ing augmented with 8 CETA employees; however, their continued presence as town employees can- not be assured. During 1976 maintenance, construction and re- construction was accomplished as follows: Construction /Reconstruction 11 roads Stonesealing/Surface Binder 16,330' stone -sealed 5,919' binder coat 4,850' sand -sealed Traffic Signs 957 signs placed 824 posts installed Drainage (Catch Basins) 89 installed and 2,990 ft. of drainage pipe placed. erty north of the Mid -Cape Highway, Route 6, which tripled the area we used to serve. Also, up to the present time, the secretary, Trenor Goodell, and myself did all of the secretarial work at no cost to the Town. Due to business reasons, Mr. Goodell did not run for election in November of 1976. Since that time, I have been the secretary as well as Chairman. We are trying to find a part- time secretary to relieve some of this burden. The Old King's Highwny Regional Historic Dis- trict commission, which is comprised of the chair- man of each of the town's committees, there were nine towns, but Eastham withdrew from the Dis- trict, meets once a month in the court house in Barnstable on the first Tuesday of each month at at 2 p.m. This committee hears appeals from Town Commission rulings in either approving or disapproving applications. Through counsel, they issue guidelines to local committees in their inter- pretation of the act. Your local committee meets the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month in Lyceum Hall, Yarmouth Port, Mass., at 7:30 p.m., and all are welcome. Application for the different categories discussed above are available from the members listed or at the Town Office, South Yarmouth. We wish to thank Mr. Trenor Goodell for his many years of service. At the Annual Meeting in November of 1976, Mr. Ernest J. Cole, Jr. was elected a member to serve a four year term. John E. Harris, Chairman Ernest Cole, Jr., Secretary Frederick Schauwecker, Jr. Alexander Catto George E. Plugge Report of the MUNICIPAL BUILDING STUDY COMMITTEE To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: This Committee was formed under the direction of the Town Moderator in 1973 for the purpose of studying the fire, police, and Town Hall Build- ings for possible renovations and/or additions. Due to the complexity of studying several build- ings, it was decided that this committee would limit its consideration to the Town Hall. The Town Hall was built in 1954 at which time the Yarmouth population was 4,000. The original number of 81 town employees was 23. Today, Yarmouth has a population in excess of 17,000 and the number of town employees has risen to 52 located in the Town Hall. Over -crowding has occurred; there is a lack of proper storage areas; and not sufficient vaults to house irreplaceable documents. The committee met with every department head who submitted space requirements. With these requirements and the aid of a local architect, Mr. Peter Brown, who volunteered his time and knowl- edge, preliminary plans have been drawn up for additional space by renovation of the current town building by internal reconstruction. Alternative plans have been drawn up relative to an addition. The Selectmen, who attended at least one meet- ing, expressed their views that an addition is a must. Federal funds should be available to defray a large part of any municipal building cost. Ac- cordingly, an article is in this town warrant asking for $5,000 for the drawing of preliminary archi- tectural plans. Respectfully submitted, Gerald S. Garnick, Esquire Louise B. Johnson David L. Llewelyn Ruth L. Mortensen Augustine L. Murphy James R. MacNeill, Esquire Clyde Hackett Archie F. Wilson Ill Archie F. Wilson III, Chairman Report of the CONSERVATION COMMISSION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The Conservation Commission has continued its varied projects and programs to benefit the town and preserve our valued natural resources. The Commission has become more involved with and interested in programs available through the State and Federal agencies. Because of growing responsibilities and new regulations, a part time secretary hos been hired to exclusively handle Conservation Commission work. A new office is being built adjacent to the Engineering Department, and it will be open every morning from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. There have been over 30 wetland hearings held in the past year, with either Orders of Conditions or denials issued in each case. The Town now had acquired, either through pur- chase or gifts, a total of 760± acres. Much of our new purchases will be available for recreational use to all townspeople. We wish to thank the townspeople, the Natural Resources Department, Sanitary Landfill Personnel, and other Town Departments for their assistance and interest in all the Conservation projects of the past year. Respectfully submitted, LEE COLTON, Chairman CABLEVISION ADVISORY Committee Report COMMITTEE MEMBERS John F. Meehan, Jr. - Chairman Ralph Cipolla, Jr. - Selectmen Joseph Cotell - Finance Committee Member Raymond Lawton - Planning Board Member William Butler - Assistant Town Council Vacancy - Minority Group Most local government officials as well as cable industry executives will readily admit that they are unfamiliar with the specific services to be pro- vided to the local community via cable TV. Speaking for the Cablevision Advisory Com- mittee, our efforts will be to this end. We will strive to develop an understanding as to the po- tential of cablevision and to apprise the citizens of the town as to changes that will likely take place as this most important communication med- ium develops. This year we are pleased to have Ralph Cipolla as the representative from the Board o: Selectmen, and Ray Lawton representing the Planning Board. As with the Committee's previous report it has been unnecessary to meet other than once for the purpose of reviewing the progress made by Cape Cod Cablevision in meeting its projected goals. On November 18th Cape Cod Cablevision held a conference for the purpose of planning what they call a Cape Cod Television Network. Some Cape town cablevision advisory committee members attended. Special interest groups such as, representatives from Medicine, Law, Social Clubs, Ethnic minorities, Cultural and Educational groups also attended this conference. 82 The basic objectives of this proposed network would allow utilization of Cablevision's facilities by various Cape Cod organizations and thereby airing their program over channel 11. At present, this network idea is being studied by a special committee which developed from the planning conference. Pursuant to section 21 (b) of the CATV license between Cape Cod Cablevision and the town of Yarmouth, attached to this report is a copy of form 500B, Quarterly Complaint Form, and 500C Signi- ficant Service Interruption Form, for the third and fourth quarters of 1976. In closing, I would like to extend my gratitude to the committee for their interest in the citizens of Yarmouth by accepting the responsibiliy that comes with membership in this group. Respectfully submitted, JOHN H. MEEHAN, JR., Chairman Cablevision Advisory Committee Town of Yarmouth Report of the HARBORMASTER To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: From: The Harbormaster Dept. Report for 1976 . The Harbormaster Department had a total of 393 assisted $1,413,946.00 estimated value worth of log entrees this past season and the Department vessels. Boaters are cautioned as to the width and depth of Bass River Channel in Nantucket Sound. This is an ever present problem which may be alleviated by the county purchase or rental of a dredge. The type of dredging recommended by this department would be "Hydro Dredging". A new buoy system, replacing the old kegs will be initiated this year. The buoys are of high visi- bility. This should make navigation of our waters easier for the boating public. Townspeople are once again reminded that due to increased boating that they should put their moorings in early to assure a favorable area. John L. Silver, Jr. Harbormaster Report of the BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: Calendar Year 1 Jan. 1976 to 31 Dec. 1976 Fiscal Year 1 July 1975 to 30 June 1976 The Board of Water Commissioners herewith submit their report for the calendar year 1976. Present number active services Services installed during 1976 Gals. pumped during Fiscal 1976 Gals. pumped during Calendar 1976 Miles of main added to system Approximate miles of main - system Present number of hydrants Water mains by size, installed as of 31 10,767 290 854,922,000 903,695,000 4.86 246.93 1,377 Dec. 1976. 6 inch 8 inch 10 inch 12 inch 4,830 ft. 7,764 ft. 2,910 ft. 10,162 ft. 25,666 ft.+40 hydrants During calendar 1976, the Water Department or it's agents installed 290 new services. Revenue for fiscal 1976 was $626,532.08, an increase of $46,- 915.42 over 1975. The total gallonage pumped for calendar 1976 was up 8.83 per cent to 903,- 695,000 gallons. The peak day was July 10, 1976, when 6,349,000 gallons were pumped. The Water Department had a very good year for growth. Two additional wells (no. 15 and no. 16) were put on the line in July and were used throughout the summer months. After Labor Day work was started on the pumping stations and pumping equipment for wells #14, 15, and 16. The work on these stations is expected to be com- pleted by spring of 1977. Also, during 1976, work was completed on the new four (4) million gallon storage facility located on Prospect Hill, southeast of Dennis Pond in Yar- mouthport, and it was placed in service, providing increased water pressure for the north side of town and additional water storage for the Town, and fire protection purposes. The Route 6A Main -Line Re-inforcement Project was also completed in 1976 with the installation of approximately 8,100 feet of water main, rang- ing in size from six (6) inch diameter to sixteen (16) 83 inch diameter. This will supply more water to the northeast section of the town from Setucket Road East to the Dennis line. Construction was started on three (3) gravel packed wells east of Higgins Crowell Road and south of the power line as provided for by the 1976 Town Meeting. It is expected that these wells will be able to be used with temporary power hook-ups during the summer of 1977. The contracts for construction of the pumping stations and in- stallation of the pumping equipment are being drawn up and work will start in the spring 1977. The Departments Test Well Program continued during 1976 and a very promising tuture well site was located south of the existing wellfield at Hig- gins Crowell Road and Willow Street. The 1977 Annual Town Meeting will be asked to provide funds for the taking of that parcel of land, subject to the approval of the Deparmtent of Environ- mental Quality Engineering for wellfield purposes. Town Meeting will also be asked for funds to purchase land abutting the wellfield at the main station located at 102 Union Street, for the purpose of protecting the existing wellfield at the above location. The contract for the re -location of the waste dis- posal system at the main station was awarded and work is 80% complete, having been halted temporarily by the extremely cold weather and frozen ground conditions. In addition to the new services and mainline work, the Department continued on its on going maintenance programs. These consist of twice an- nually inspecting all fire hydrants, operation and checking of gate valves, and repairs to hydrants and valves as needed. The Department's outlook for the immediate future is continued test well work (for new sources of water) and additional gravel packed wells, pumping stations, and pumping equipment to meet current as well as future demand for water in the town. The long range outlook for the Department is to continue to provide the best possible service at the least possible cost and still maintain a realistic per- spective about todays economic situation. The 1977 Town Meeting will be asked for funds to continue our operation with the above stated goals in mind. The continuing search for water through test wells must go on. The acquisition of new lands for well - field purposes, along with the construction of wells, pumping stations, etc., must continue if the Depart- ment is to meet the future demand for water by the inhabitants of the town, and the large influx of summer people. There will also be special articles for the continued upgrading of our system to keep the Department as modern and efficient as you have come to expect. In closing, the Board would like to take this op- portunity to thank all of those involved in aiding the Department to move forward with those pro- jects which were of importance to the Department and the Town, all efforts, both individually and collectively are greatly appreciated by the Depart- ment. Respectfully submitted, ROGER G. EDWARDS, JR. THOMAS E. KELLEY FREDERICK J. THACHER Board of Water Commissioners Report of the GOLF COURSE COMMITTEE To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: For the calendar year 1976, the Town's income from the Bass River Golf Course after deducting golf cart leasing expense amounted to $190,392.16. This compares with 1975 income of $186,970.60. The likelihood is that 1977 figures will be down due to continuing ice and snow and the complete shutdown of winter golf. Our membership list has increased from 880 to 925 persons during the past year. Our members are a very active group and show unusual interest in the upkeep of the facility and its activities. We recognize that we are approaching a limit in the number of members we can accommodate and that crowded conditions are not attractive to the guests who would like to play our course. Currently we are providing a winter home for approximately 500 hungry Canada Geese. They do somedamage to the course but, based on past experience, we anticipate it will be repairable without excessive cost. Sincere thanks to our employees and members for helping to provide an outstanding facility for our town. Nye Crowell, Chairman Hazel Ellis Millar, Secretary H. Freeman Cash James R. MacNeill Raymond F. Mello 84 Report of the YARMOUTH YOUTH COMMISSION To the Yarmouth Board of Selectmen and Citizens of Yarmouth Submitted herewith is the 1976 Annual Report for the Yarmouth Youth Commission. A dramatic increase in membership has been a major factor in 1976 at the Yarmouth Youth Com- mission located in the West Yarmouth Community Building, 22 Lewis Road, West Yarmouth; the mem- bership now totals over 400 youths. The center operated a regularly scheduled week on a seasonal basis with a rescheduling for the holidays. The members have found an "open door" policy where they can spend their energy partici- pating in scheduled activities. Members have the responsibility of care for property, the necessary guidance when needed and the reinforcement of respect for fellow members as well as oneseF. Throughout the year craft activities consisted of instruction in leather,' silver, macrame and enamel- ing with excellent response indicating continuance of such activities for the following year, with addi- tional craft headings. Swimming, sailing and field trips headed the summer recreational program with a sport program of basketball and fencing lessons filling in the seasons of spring and fall. Halloween this year brought much participation in in costume wear and apple bobbing; followed by Thanksgiving with a turkey dinner and to close the year 1976 a Christmas Open House. The coming year of 1977 proposes programs to accommodate the increase of membership and to aim toward better community relations. We are appealing to the citizens of Yarmouth to aid with their time and talents and to become an ac- tive part of the center for their youth. Within our recreational framework we also func- tioned as an informal counselling center, providing our members with human warmth, positive, con- structive support and a willingness to listen and share. Wherever necessary, referrals to more spe- cialized human services organizations were pro- vided and an attempt was made to "follow-up" on the progress of the individual involved. Also, we co-operated with Barnstable District Court personnel to provide a supervised work pro- gram at the center for Yarmouth court referrals. A regularly scheduled "Open House" was ini- tiated during the past year. Parents of center members, Yarmouth residents and interested friends are warmly invited to visit the center and meet with the directors and members of the Youth Commission. A continuing program by center staff and Com- mission members to establish close ties with the Yarmouth police was developed. Frequent visits at the center by Yarmouth police officers, and meetings with police officials helped to facilitate communications and exchange of ideas. Center directors met with school officials at Mat- tacheese Middle School, Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School and Cape Cod Technical High School to discuss and develop programs. Center directors and Commission members also met with the Dennis - Yarmouth Educational Advisory Committee to share ideas and information concerning the resources available in the community. We would like to take this occasion to thank the following individuals and organizations who have been a part of us — Nancy Votrain and Philip Gentile (staff members); Harold Gafney and Ernest LeBlanc (Youth Commissioners); and lastly the Cape Cod Times and the Yarmouth Chamber of Com- merce. The following says it best. "THE ART OF GIVING" We give of ourselves when we give gifts of the heart; love, kindness, joy, understanding, sympathy, tolerance, forgiveness. We give of ourselves When we give gifts of the mind: ideas, dreams, purposes, ideals, principles, plans, inventions, projects,- poetry. We give of ourselves When we give gifts of the spirit: prayer, vision, beauty, aspiration, peace, faith. We give of ourselves When we give the gift of words: encouragement, inspiration, guidance. Emerson said it well: "kings and jewels are not gifts, but apologies for gifts. The only true gift is a portion of thyself." 85 From the Art of Living by Wilferd A. Peterson Thanks to each of you for what you did. Respectfully, Maureen G. Evleth Virginia Hollatz Doris Scott William Bullock David Reid Andrea Reid Paul R. F.

It is a great joy for Mrs. Smith and me to welcome so many friendly people on Friday mornings. We are most grateful to the many who have contributed baked goods and coffee for this hour. Especially we thank Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Donlin who have furnished most of the coffee and also dependable Sarah Lee products. The Saturday morning film showings for the chil- dren still attract a good number. We thank Eastern Region for the book and film loans and Frank Finn and Shirley Lyons for ,their cheerful cooperation. There were two special children's programs. Na- tional Library Week the children were entertained by Todd Cash as Twist the Clown and at Christmas time Mrs. Jerome Wyeth presented delightful pup- pets. Both programs were genuinely and joyfully received by the children. Mr. Hosea Wheeler, President of the Friends of the Library and Thomas Donlin, Chairman of Enter- tainment, secured excellent programs in 1976. The annual Christmas party was very successful under their leadership with the efficient assistance of Mrs. John Boyden, Mrs. Hosea Wheeler and their Committees. We are grateful to the Conn Music Company of Hyannis for lending us an organ for use at the Christmas party and to Mrs. Eleanor Sweeney for her expert renditions. National Library Week opened with a tea and Art exhibit on Sunday, April 4th. Throughout the week many new and outstanding exhibits were on display. To the many who assisted during this busy week we extend sincere thanks. It was a week to remember. As a part of the November Friends program, the members celebrated, with roses and a gift to the Librarian, her forty years of Library service. This surprise recognition touched me very deeply and afforded, for me, a memorable moment. I thank everyone for this. And now—our major problem is lack of space. This problem is urgent. In July the Trustees voted to establish a Building Fund. Mr. George Plugge, Architect, has generously given his services and has presented a number of excellent plans for the approval of the Trustees. To renovate or build as we would wish would cost 80 to 100,000 dollars. This would take too long to raise. On December 9th Mr. Plugge presented a plan of internal construction in the dwelling area in order to provide book space for approximately four years during which time a money raising campaign can be conducted to raise money for an ultimate plan which would consist of demolishing and rebuilding the whole rear area. The tempo- rary plan can be completed for under $5,000.00 which seems to be within our reach since on August 85 27th we held a most successful Library sale and made over $1,200.00. We are so grateful to the many who gave gener- ously of their time and to those who gave articles and food to be sold. We hope to have a repeat sale next summer and, with contributions which will be solicited, we should go over the top and start renovations in 1977. The members of the Garden Club have been faithfully supplying the Library with flowers, plants and wreaths. We salute them! The members of the DAR presented to the Li- brary, in a very impressive ceremony, an American flag. To them we are grateful. To the members of the Board of Trustees, to Mrs. Arthur Smith and Miss Shirley Lyons who assist me so very well, to the borrowers, members of the Friends, Donors, the Selectmen, the members of the Finance Committee, and to the Voters we extend deep appreciation for without all these willing and generous people the Yarmouth Library would cease to exist. Respectfully submitted, MARTHA U. WHITE, Librarian Yarmouth Library Association Report of the SOUTH YARMOUTH LIBRARY ASSOCIATION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: 1976 has brought about many changes at the South Yarmouth Library and another increase of 2,878 volumes in our circulation over the previous year. The figures are as follows: CIRCULATION 1975 1976 Adult 43,718 46,419 Juvenile 9,885 10,057 Periodicals 1,184 1,220 Records 342 323 Pictures 35 23 Pamphlets 1 1 Total55,165 58,043 Number of days open - 293 In February we did a complete inventory of our holdings and after corrections in our records and discarding several hundred obsolete books, we ar- rived at a figure of 15,739 volumes. Since that time, we have added 1,028 volumes making a total of 16,767 volumes as of December 31, 1976. We have continued to work with Windsor Nurs- ing Home this year with the loan of large print books and also arranging for film programs for their patients. We have also continued to use the facilities of the Eastern Regional Library System Depository at Yarmouth Port to augment our own collection by the loan of books, records and films. We have also received many books on inter -library loan from Falmouth, Boston and other libraries to give our patrons better service. Mrs. Stowe and Mrs. Bingham have carried on our pre-school story hour again this year with their usual efficiency and the children look forward to this every other Tuesday. A Friends of the South Yarmouth Library group was formed this year with Mr. Balie Cantrell as President. They have conducted three successful book sales through the hard work of Mr. Bain- bridge Crist and the club members. From this membership, a small group of volunteers has been formed who provided much needed assistance to the library staff. We are most grateful to them all. During the summer, a reading program was conducted by Mrs. Joseph Lally, a retired librarian with approximately 50 children registered. Our thanks to Mrs. Lally and to the volunteers who assisted her. Once again I have attended several meetings and workshops both locally and statewide and also attended the New England Library Association annual conference in September. As always, these have been helpful in our work and I appreciated the opportunity to attend. As always, it is my pleasure to thank everyone who contributed time, books and money to our library. To mention a few—Mrs. Betty Keary for the ever lovely gardens; to the Yarmouth Garden Club and the Yarmouth Woman's Club for their gifts of flowers and books; to our staff, Nancy Stewart, Rachel Stowe, Jean Bingham and Sandra Rogers, and to Pamela Fernald our CETA worker who has gone on to other pursuits; to our volun- teers for donating an afternoon a week and some- times two afternoons, our thanks for a good job. And to the Board of Directors, our thanks for your continued interest and support. And now one final item—this will be my last report to you as your librarian. After nine years, I have decided to take an early retirement effective December 31, 1976. They have been happy years and I shall miss my many wonderful friends in 87 South Yarmouth. I shall continue to live on Cape Cod and hope to remain active in the library field in some capacity. To all of you, thank you for your friendship and your loyalty. Respectfully submitted, VIRGINIA M. OSBORN, Librarian Report of the WEST YARMOUTH LIBRARY To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: We are happy to submit our annual report for the year 1976.

Circulation increased five per cent over 1975 with our Bicentennial creat- ing much interest in books and materials concern- ing our national heritage. Through the generosity of our Library Associ- ation we were able to purchase a copy machine providing a much needed service to our library patrons as well as the general public. As members of the Boston Regional Library Sys- tem we have filled many requests for materials and visit the Yarmouthport Depository regularly to borrow books and attend meetings _ and work- shops. Our Thursday afternoon pre-school storytime continues to attract new young patrons to our li- brary. The recent addition of a child -level book- case has made their picturebook selection much easier. For those with limited vision information con- cerning the borrowing of a talking book machine from the Library of Congress is available. Our col- lection of large print books continues to grow and we are grateful to the Mid -Cape Lions Club for two hundred dollars contributed towards the pur- chase of these books. We wish to thank the Yarmouth Garden Club for the many seasonal displays received this past year. We appreciate the efforts made by volunteers in behalf of our library, especially Mr. Scott Allan, Mr. Harry Hall and Mrs. John Hart for composing our attractive, informative brochure. We wish to thank Mrs. Edward Kromberg for the hours spent at the typewriter, Mrs. Chester Henderson and Mrs. Donald Lee whose handicraft profits our library, Mrs. Herbert Lawson for the time given maintain- ing our record collection, Mrs. Larry Cadman and Mrs. Warren Peterson. On behalf of our staff, Mrs. Edith Cavander, Mrs. Lee Wetjen, Mrs. Diane Nielsen and myself, we also wish to thank our Board of Trustees for their support and cooperation. Respectfully submitted, LORRAINE LOUGHLIN, Librarian Report of the TOWN SURVEYOR To the Honorable Board of Selectmen As in past years the accomplishments of. the Engineering Department have been many and varied. I am pleased to report some of them for the year 1976. A total of thirteen roads were laid -out for ac- ceptance and construction, six town roads were accepted for reconstruction under department sup- ervision and twenty-four subdivision roads con- structed in accordance with Planning Board regu- 88 lotions and inspected by the Engineering Depart- ment through all phases of construction. Assessors' maps for the entire area south of Route 6 have been completed leaving only ten to be drawn in the Yarmouth and Yarmouth Port areas to completed the set of 135. Plans were drawn for several town departments, boards and commissions, one being for the Bicen- tennial Commission showing the exact location of the time capsule to be opened on July 4, 2076. Drainage problem areas in the town continue to receive priority attention, as in the past, and, though several problem areas were corrected, many still remain. I would like to express my thanks as well as the thanks of the Engineering Department staff to the citizens and other town departments for their cooperation and support.

Specialized instruction in the performance of ad- ditional tests in water chemistry, learning to use the new laboratory equipment, and sharing in con- ferences with the "208" waste water study have taken much time and effort. The position of sani- tary inspector funded by CETA (Comprehensive Employment Training Act) was terminanted in May. Wewere fortunate in hiring a registered sanitarian to succeed him immediately, and who could work through the summer period. Occas- ional workshops have been held with the town health agents and this department. Environmental health protection continues to be a major service. The Public Health Nurse Directors have provided supervision to seven Home Health Agencies, at- tending quarterly record reviews, serving ex - officio on their professional advisory committees, attending the one day and two day surveys for re -certification under Medicare. They assisted in the selection and orientation of new community nurses in two towns and in one school. A continu- ing education course "The Community Nurse is the Leader — Her Role and Responsibility in the Home Visit" was well attended, 33 nurses received credit for 1.4 Continuing Education Units from the Mas- sachuseits Nurses Association. One nurse director has served on the Continuing Care Committee of Cape Cod Hospital, the Heart Association profes- sional education committee, the Cape Cod Com- munity College Medical Advisory Committee, and the College Geriatric Aide Course Advisory Com- mittee. Lectures have been given on communicable diseases and personal care in the orientation course for the Cape Cod Homemaker -Home Health Aide Service. One director served on a town govern- ment study committee, and completed a course at the Harvard School of Public Health in nurse lead- ership and management with particular reference to school health services. Responsibility for the epidemiological aspect of the state tuberculosis 89 clinic and for all communicable diseases is a con- tinued one and to some extent, is jointly share with the registered sanitarians. One public health nurse director continues to direct a five member staff and coordinate the management of the State Handicap- ped Childrens Clinic in this area, and coordinates the group day care center inspection activities. Medical Social Services are provided, directly to the Handicapped Childrens Clinic families on a continued basis, and also to any person or family on request. Consultation and conferences with other agencies in the county and elsewhere have led to the fulfillment of several requests, such as approval for admission to special schools and serv- ices, funds for homemakers and specialized care at home. Joint planning continues on a regular basis with day care operators, school special needs counsellors, the collaborative staff, school nurses and psychologists. Dental Hygiene services are still focused on the young child of pre-school and elementary age. As requested by individual schools and pre-schools, direct servicesof screening, topical fluoride appli- cation, and education are provided. An affiliation experience for the dental hygiene students at Cape Cod Community College is now available here, with instruction and supervision provided on a weekly basis, however this is dependent on the approval of each school system involved. The Handicapped Childrens Clinic is held twice each month, at Barnstable County Hospital in Po - cosset, with a caseload of over 330 children, ages from birth to 21 years. Because of the increase in the number of referrals, and the complexity and seriousness of most diagnoses, additional clinic ses- sions are being scheduled. The medical staff includes: Murray Pendleton, M.D., Pediatrician, Falmouth Henry H. Banks, M.D., Orthopedic Surgeon, New England Medical Center, Boston Michael Goldberg, M.D., Orthopedic Surgeon, New England Medical Center, Boston Seymour Zimbler, M.D., Orthopedic Surgeon, New England Medical Center, Boston Edward Rabe, M.D., Pediatric Neurologist, New England Medical Center, Boston Leo Sullivan M.D., Pediatric Neurologist, New England Medical Center, Boston A public health physical therapist, medical social worker, and three secretaries complete the team. The position of occupational therapist, funded by CETA was terminated in May, there has been no provision for a replacement. The team has access to other services and staff assistance, through the Division of Family Health Services of the Massachu- setts Department of Public Health. The responsibility for recommending licensure for Group Day Care Centers continues to increase. The State Office for Children is re -writing Rules and Regulations for the operation of such centers, and a final draft will soon be completed and inter- preted to the day care center operators. In addition to stricter standards by the State Building Code there is greater parent involvement and consumer interest. Because of our wide involvement in many children's services, we feel that it is important for us to continue in this field. We also continue to provide "promotion' of health" and "prevention of disease" and the "public health viewpoint" through consultation services, board membership and committee participation, such as, with Elder Services of Cape & Islands, with the Area Hospital Council, the Nurse Directors Com- mittee, the Associated Boards of Health, Massachu- setts Department of Mental Health and Mental Health Association, Family and Children's Services, the local Office for Children and Child Develop- ment Program Inc., the Cape Cod Community Coun- cil, the Cape Cod Community College, and the Comprehensive Health Planning Agency. We en- deavor to support the medical community and to prepare for the most efficient, economical, com- passionate provision and system for the delivery of health services. Respectfully subm;tted, ESTHER G. HOWES County Health Officer VISITING NURSE ASSOCIATION Of Central Cape Cod, Inc. 1976 Annual Report for Yarmouth The Visiting Nurse Association of Central Cape Cod, Inc. provides town nursing services (exclud- ing physical nursing measures/bedside care) to the residents of Yarmouth under town appropri- ation (no charge for these visits is made to the individual residents). These services are visits for health promotion and instruction of families with pre-school children referred by a physician or clinic and to children with handicapped condition; visits 90 to mothers with new infants who want or need nursing support and direction. They include visits to those with communicable diseases; tuberculosis, salmonella, hepatitis and the like. Health assess- ment visits to the elderly have, in the last few months of 'the year, increased in number. These visits provide an opportunity to review health habits and practices, help persons into the health delivery system and coordinate with other agencies those services an individual or family may need to maintain or increase function. Health counselling sessions open to all residents 60 and over, are held weekly at the Community ' Building at Long Pond Plaza and give persons an opportunity to discuss with the nurse their personal, needs and problems in relationship to health care and health systems. Expectant parents classes held with the Maternity Department at Cape Cod Hos- pital, at the hospital, provide basic instruction re: pregnancy, labor and delivery and the newborn. The statistics for 1976 are as follows: Nursing Cases 187 Nursing Visits 1519 Physical Therapy Visits 352 Physical Therapy Cases 36 Physical Therapy Visits in consultation 2 (No 3rd party coverage) Town Visits Health Promotion 53 Health Promotion (Office) 1 Handicapped Child 1 Maternity PP & AP 48 NB 44 Tuberculosis 4 TB Contact 7 TB Contact (Office) 5 Absent Visits Maternity 6 Health Promotion 1 170 1976 Expectant Parents Class Attendance - 50 couples- 100 residents 1976 Health Counselling for Senior Years - 723 visits 1976 Flu Clinic Participation - 1377 In 1977 your Visiting Nurse Association hopes to continue to make better health services available under town appropriations. I encourage citizens of Yarmouth to write us re: their health concerns and problems with the health delivery system so that we may develop programs that will benefit all. We will continue to work with other agencies in- volved with human services to meet your identi- fiable health needs. In 1977 the Visiting Nurse Association will work with Mr. Cipolla to have a written agreement which more specifically spells out Visiting Nurse Association responsibility with the Board of Health. One or more of the nurses working in the Yar- mouth area will be encouraged to attend health- related meetings where there are nursing impli- cations for towns people. The nurses, in conjunc- tion with the Board of Health, will work to develop essential programs and services which, you the citizens, feel are needed. A slide presentation of how your Visiting Nurse functions is now available to groups of citizens who may be interested in having one of their visit- ing nurses explain services. The visiting nurses working in the Yarmouth area at present are: Mrs. Barbara Dorval, R.N., Area Supervisor Mrs. Anne Humberstone, R.N. Mrs. Louise Davis, R.N. Mrs. Josephine Gibney, L.P.N. Part-time workers who at times provide care in the Yarmouth area. Mrs. Elaine Singer, R.N. Mrs. Susan Wahlstrom, R.N. Respectfully, EILEEN McCOOK, R.N. Executive Director Report of the CIVIL DEFENSE DIRECTOR To the Honorable Board of Selectmen Town of Yarmouth The program of Civil Preparedness continues on with much enthusiasm. Our scuba team has under- gone extensive training in under -water search and rescue. Men from the Fire and Police Departments make up the diving team and are called from time to time to search for lost or stolen items. They are also used to assist recovering cars found in the rivers or lakes. This past fall, all our services were put to use when we evacuated 1700 people along our beach- es and low lying areas, due to the hurricane threat. We received excellent cooperation from the School, 91 Police, Fire, Highway, Conservation and Building Departments in getting the word to the people and keeping a constant check on the areas that were evacuated to minimize looting and storm damage. At no direct cost to the town, we have up -graded all plans and emergency procedures to assist all departments in times of emergency. We were as- sisted in this project by people from the University of Massachusetts. The Director was disappointed that the town offi- cials decided not to accept over $60,000 in Federal Funds, to assist in providing the town with an Emergency Operating Center, from which all of our functions could be directed during time of man made or natural disasters. Respectively submitted, ROBERT K. EDWARDS, Director Report of the YARMOUTH HOUSING AUTHORITY To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The Yarmouth Housing Authority received an allotment and erected a fence around the property at Long Pond Plaza for security reasons. Due to change of tenants four (4) apartments were completely refurbished. The "707" program now has eighty four (84) tenants. A new contract for forty six (46) units was re- ceived under the Section 8 program and the pro- gram now consists of ninety six (96) units of which 86 are filled. Eligibility for the complex at Long Pond Plaza has been changed from persons over 65 to persons over 62.

The Center, situated on Long Pond Drive, South Yarmouth, is rented from the Dennis -Yarmouth Senior Citizens, Incorporated. Although we do have a very large membership, some 8200 citizens over the age of 59, we have been able through efficient management to accom- modate in many ways the large numbers of guests that enter the center for classes, counseling, infor- mation and referral inquiries. Classes in needlepoint, crewel, oil paiting, quilt- ing, rug hooking, bridge, cardiopulmonary exer- cises, dancing, romance languages, clothing con- struction, are all received with great enthusiasm. When our classes, sponsored by the Towns were completed, the Barnstable Extension Service offered classes in rush and cane chair seating. "Cooking for Two" was the subject of a nutrition program given by the extension. Along with our regularly scheduled classes the men have their "play day". This includes bridge, poker, pool, cribbage, chess and backgammon. Women's cribbage day has been well received — meeting every Friday afternoon. Duplicate bridge has literally snowballed this past year. Each Mon- day afternoon finds the Center "buzzing" with some twenty (20) tables of bridge. The mixed bowling teams are in their fourth year and they meet with the singles group in a hotly contested session each Wednesday. Square dancing takes place every Monday afternoon at the Congregational Church, Yarmouth Port. The requests for Medicare and Medex consulta- tions were so great that a group of our retirees have been trained by a Blue Cross -Blue Shield rep- resentative and we are now able to have personal consultations on a weekly basis by appointment only. A telephone reassurance line is maintained for the elderly living alone. This is on a one-to-one basis. Older persons in this group are urged to consult the Director at the Center for assistance. 113 Various inter -club activities have been organized by our members. The "Singles" group, with close to 100 members, meets each month for a luncheon get-together at different Cape restaurants. The mixed chorus, numbering some 75 members, has become very well known both on and off Cape, making many personal appearances at nursing homes, clubs, etc. The D -Y orchestra meets every Thursday afternoon at the Center for rehearsals. Each Wednesday at 1 P.M. blood pressure clinics take place at the Center. These clinics are con- ducted under the supervision of a retired Boston doctor, assisted by two retired registered nurses. Flu immunizations were given of some 1200 Yarmouth residents. Glaucoma tests were given in May to some 400 residents through the courtesy of the South Yarmouth Lions Club. Each month an average of 4500 pieces of mail are handled at the Center and each registrant receives a copy of "Milestones", the Council on Aging bulletin. Mrs. Victor A. Lasky, Chairperson Mr. Gordon Gilbert, Vice Chairman Ms. Selma Ludwig, Secretary Mr. Arthur O'Leary, Treasurer Mrs. Louise Taylor Rev. Carlton T. Daley Mr. Ralph Cipolla, Jr. Mr. Bob Lawton Report of the COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT Committee Representatives During the course of meetings held at the offices of the Cape Cod Planning and Economic Develop- ment Commission over the past year, the follow- ing of interest to the people of the Town of Yar- mouth have occurred. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Executive Office of Environmental Affairs has issued the Massachusetts Coastal Zone Management Preview, which is a preliminary draft of what is to be sub- mitted as the Massachusetts state plan to the fed- eral government in July, 1977. Much of this plan is a result of the efforts on the part of the advisory committees acting as agents for the various towns and cities of the coastal zone. The input into the proposed plan is from hun- dreds of residents of coastal communities, develop- ers, public officials, commercial fishermen, and people who come to our coast for recreation. The plan reflects a number of primary needs for man- agement. The natural resources of the Town of Yarmouth are our most important economic asset. Business- men, tourists, and residents alike are attracted to our town because of its coastal location. However, many in Yarmouth have indicated they do not want extensive new growth and development as they view this development as ending the original character which was responsible for the attractive- ness of the town in the first place. An attempt to balance the demand For growth with preservation and protection of our rich and valuable coastal resources has been the key to the discussions at most of the meetings of the commit- tee. Over the long run, CZM's proposed policies to protect our coastline's natural riches ensures all our residents that the environmental and economic value of the coastal zone will be sustained, and even enhanced. Also, the town's critical areas have been assessed and submitted to the state for inclusion in the plan. Problems relative to Marine Environment, Coastal Hazards, Ports & Harbors, Recreation, Man- agement and Energy are of great concern to Yar- mouth, as well as the other 14 towns represented on the advisory committee. Because of the nature of the state setting priori- ties in the manner in which possible disbursements will be granted, we have established the mainte- nance dredging of Bass River and Parker River and the extension of their breakwaters be given earliest consideration. Moreover, we have proposed the opening of Lewis Pond so as to create a new loca- tion for a commercial fishing pier to provide ice, fuel, water, etc. This development would be pri- marily on town owned land and would provide a protected harbor a short distance from the "prime fishing" grounds located off our coast. The town of Yarmouth should take advantage of federal funds now being made available for projects of this type. Report of the Respectfully submitted, John C. Lynch Donald A. Bartlett CAPITAL BUDGET COMMITTEE The report for this year shows estimated charges against the Town of Yarmouth to meet its share of payments that will be due on existing bonds of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District and the Cape Cod Regional Technical High School. Also included are estimated figures on the cost of an- ticipated renovations at the John Simpkins School. These charges will be included in the budgets of the two regional schools and are shown here only for informationol purposes. All tabulations include projections through fiscal 1982.

As I indicated last year, we did make some changes in the academic program and I am happy to report that the transition from an open, indi- vidually guided program of studies with learning activity packages, to the more traditional teacher/ textbook method of operation was performed in such a manner as to bring great credit to the students, teachers, School Committee members and administrators who worked many long hours to bring this to pass. The lessons learned in that trans- formation last year have made our program of studies this year in the academic area operate as though we had been in business for years. Another area of great growth during that first year of operation was in the vocational shop areas. The first four months of the school year, as you will remember, were devoted to an exploratory program for freshmen and sophomore students and as of January 5th, upon their return from Christmas vacation, all students were finally as- signed to the department of their choice for the most part and it was gratifying to see the students from eleven different towns blending themselves into twenty separate and distinct vocational pro- grams. When one spends fifty per cent of his time in school with the same group of students, such as is done in a vocational school, very close associations are developed, and a new spirit was noticed among the students. Our first graduation, June 6, 1976, was a mem- orable one and the Yearbook was dedicated to the School Committee members, present and past. One hundred forty-two students graduated from Cape Cod Tech and we are happy to report that twenty- four of them chose to come back to further their studies as they had had only one year of vocational education, having transferred from an academic high school. The school year ended on June 17th and I think if you listened carefully you could have heard a sigh of relief. It was a rewarding year, but we did have our trials and. tribulations. All of our departments have been actively in- volved with in-house changes and with customers 125 from each of our eleven towns. Many citizens from our member towns have taken the opportunity to visit our school and while here they have had an opportunity to visit the Cosmetology shop, the Culinary Arts Dining Room, our Distributive Edu- cation store, and we are very grateful to them as we need this kind of assistance for our students to be better prepared in their trade. I would like to take this occasion to thank the members of the Cape Cod Consortium, made up of Finance Committee members from each of the sending towns, for the patience and understand- ing in the developing of budgets for a school that went from zero students to 979 in September of 1975. We had some changes in our School Committee membership this year: David 'Brownville, from the Town of Brews- ter, resigned and his place was taken by Mrs. Anne D. Blatz. David was an original mem- ber of the Cape Cod Tech Committee and the rest of the committee members thank him for his valuable assistance in the development of this school. Frederick Dunford, from Harwich, resigned because of his professional responsibilities and he was ably replaced by Jesse J. Morgan, former Superintendent of Schools in the Town of Harwich. C. W. Matthews Tudor replaced Jean Weinig from Truro. James H. Quirk, Jr., replaced Richard O. Staff from the Town of Yarmouth. We wish to take this opportunity to thank those members who are no longer with us and to give a sincere welcome to those new members who are now part of this 22 -member committee. We are contemplating the introduction of an Adult program during the Spring of 1977 and we hope it is as successful as it is in all the other vocational schools throughout the state. In most cases they have more people attending their adult programs than daytime students. We again want to thank the people from the Retired Senior Volunteer Program here on Cape Cod. We have had excellent people working with `us this year and a vote of thanks must also go to the C.E.T.A. people for the fine works they have sent us during these past two years. Our Superintendent -Director, Wilfred H. Learned, Jr., will be very glad to answer any questions you may have regarding our programs. He may be reached at either 432-4500 or 771-2600. R.

Almonte Secretary to Director of Fiscal Affairs Report Dennis -Yarmouth Regional The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District Committee takes pleasure in the submission of its Annual Report for the period January 1, 1976 through December 31, 1976. During this year the Committee has continually endeavored to expand on the school system's strengths and improve on its weaknesses, in order to provide a system that will recognize and serve the educational goals of Dennis and Yarmouth. At special town meetings held on March 18, 1976, both towns, by their almost unanimous vote, approved the request for a bond issue for the high school additions and renovation, consummating a decision which had been deliberated for the past several years. It is anticipated at this time that 126 Mrs. Eleanor K. Bowes Secretary to the Superintendent Mrs. Anne FitzGerald, Payroll Clerk Mrs. Lillian Fregeau, Accounts Clerk Mrs. Betty S.

Potter, Statements Clerk David Reid, Office Supervisor Mrs. Miriam Sleighter, Receptionist John J. Bowes, Attendance Officer LOSS OF PERSONNEL — DUE TO RETIREMENT After many years of faithful service to the stu- dents of the District, the following staff members left to enjoy a well-earned retirement: Mrs. Dorothy Evans Dennis -Yarmouth High School 17 years Arthur Nelson Dennis -Yarmouth High School 8 years Mrs. Priscilla Webster Dennis -Yarmouth High School 28 years Miss Elizabeth Spencer Marguerite E. Small School 19 years Mrs. Estelle Wordell Ezra H. Baker School 15 years of the School District Committee construction will commence in April 1977, with sufficient completion for occupancy of the aca- demic areas during 1978-79 and the elimination of split sessions and total occupancy by September 1979. In addition, the same special town meetings approved the request for a central administration building, located on high school property, and now occupied by our staff. To assist the School Committee in the continued planning and construction of both these projects, on May 28, 1976, a building sub -committee was appointed consisting of School Committee members and members from the community -at -large, to re- place a building planning committee that had brought both projects to fruition. The following are to be recognized for their untiring efforts and the fulfillment of their delegated responsibilities: Joseph Curtis, Chairman at -large (resigned Dec. 31, 1976) Russell Wilkins, Vice -Chairman School Committe member Edward Hayes, Vice -Chairman School Committe member William Bearse, School Committee member Arthur Connelly, School Committee member James McVey, School Committee member Bernard Boudreau, at -large Judith Dubin, at -large Kenneth Rosenlund, at -large Richard True, at -large (resigned June 29, 1976) Kenneth Yakola, at -large Special recognition is to be granted to Joseph Curtis for his near full-time service and assistance prior to "retiring" on December 31, 1976. The School Committee accepted with regret the resig- nation of Mr. Richard True on June 29, 1976, neces- sitated by his important appointment to the Dennis Finance Committee. The year started with an interim regional School Committee, comprised of the following eighteen members: Years Town of Service Elizabeth Eager, Chairman, Yarmouth 1967-1975 Richard Ernst, Vice -Chairman Yarmouth 1974-1976 Elinor E. Slade, Secretary Dennis 1973-1976 Margaret M. Mathews, Treasurer Dennis 1971-1976 William J. Bearse Yarmouth 1972-1976 Gail Bickford Dennis 1968-1976 William Crowell, Jr. Dennis 1965-1976 Joseph G. Curtis Yarmouth 1962-1976 Laurence F. Ellis Yarmouth 1966-1976 John Francis Dennis 1969-1976 James McVey Yarmouth 1974-1976 Warren A. Nelson Dennis 1974-1976 Robert W. Saben, Jr. Yarmouth 1974-1976 Judith Swanson Dennis 1972-1976 Susan Gladding Yarmouth 1975-1976 William J. Kenney Dennis 1975-1976 Phebe Carey Dennis 1975-1976 Edward Hayes Yarmouth 1975-1976 Following the 1976 annual town elections, the present ten members were sworn to assume their legal responsibilities and continue the process of policy determination; budget making and financial planning; appointments of qualified personnel; approval of new courses and textbooks and re- visions to existing programs; planning of the 127 school's services to the communities; evaluating programs to guide the educational process in obtaining the goals of the community; and nego- tiating under the collective bargaining law. To assist the new committee in its decision making process by participating in its deliberations, a non- voting member was elected by his peers from the High School and appointed on October 19, 1976. Chosen from the Student Advisory Committee for this one-year term was Scott Nickerson. The School Committee, in order to facilitate greater citizen participation and input at its regular meetings, has developed a procedure whereby a period of time is set aside at the first regular meet- ing of each month, entitled "Public Forum". Com- munity participation and discussion with the School Committee is urged on matters that are not in the call of business. New procedures in fiscal control have been adopted and implemented during this period. Fol- lowing the close of fiscal year 1976, the Committee engaged the services of Arthur Anderson & Co., to provide an independent certified audit of the Dis- trict's financial records, account balances, and a review of our accounting procedures and systems. The auditor's statement is reported in this Annual Report. Recommendations concerning the funding of pension and sick leave benefits on an actuarial basis rather than cash basis, when allowed by the Legislature, will affect budgetary requests in the near future. Present funding for these benefits would require approximately an additional $50,000 in the annual budget. In addition, the Committee has leased an IBM 32 computer in order to create greater office efficiency and more complete reporting of current financial data to each level of administration in the District. The computer, in addition to financial reporting, will be able to more efficiently perform attendance, report card and student scheduling functions. Your School Committee's philosophy is to con- tinue to offer academic programs that will fulfill the goals of every student in the District, leading to an expanded adult life and a productive position in society for the individuals being served by the school system. Continued evaluation of existing programs and testing of results, and implement- ing the necessary refinements, will allow the school community to continue this philosophy through proper planning without unduly burdening the local taxpayer. Savings realized in certain service areas, such as transportation and food service, are being applied to offset fixed increases, in orderr to obtain the goals. As trustees of the Scholarship Fund, we have been gratified to receive donations and loan pay- ments amounting to nearly $7,000 and have granted awards to deserving graduates in the amount of $6,425.00 while continuing to make disbursements on previously awarded scholarships. Through the efforts of many, accomplishments this past year have been considerable, and the groundwork and planning developed for continued future progress to make this school district a totally proud school system. To this end the School Com- mittee, at a recent regular meeting, unanimously passed a resolution as follows: BE IT RESOLVED: "That the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District Committee publicly com- mends the Superintendent, Mr. Joseph E. Killory, for the highly professional manner in which he has performed, and for the sincere and sensitive leadership he has given us in developing regional concepts of education". The Committee is also most appreciative of the professional administrative staff for their continued efforts for improvement and deployment of man- agement skills and ideas; and those in the profes- sional teaching staff for being a visible, integral, spirited, and innovative part of the development process for new approaches to programs. Enhanc- ing and enriching to the School District, special recognition must be given to the active volunteers from the community who participate in the schools as well as the encouraging efforts demonstrated this past year by the District and local Community School Advisory Councils. Finally, the Committee is most appreciative to the voters of Dennis and Yarmouth for your con- tinued support to education, as evidenced by your recent overwhelming approval of the capital proj- ects. The Committee urges your participation in our available services, whether attending our reg- ular meetings, community and adult education programs, volunteer services, community coun- cils, community service projects, extra -curricular activities, or athletic events.

Bearse, Secretary Robert W. Saben, Jr., Treasurer Edward J. Ahern Arthur M. Connelly Edward Hayes James McVey Warren A. Nelson Russell N. Wilkins, Esq. Report of JOSEPH E. KILLORY, Superintendent of Schools It is with pleasure that I submit my second annual report about your public schools. I sincerely be- lieve we are providing a good education for the children and youth of the two towns, and at the same time are increasing the opportunity for resi- dents of all ages to benefit from expanded com- munity education programs. Our young people bring a rich diversity of talent to us; some require very special help, and we provide a substantial special needs program; most are very typical, and gain from our compre- hensive, regular program; a few demonstrate unusual talent and we are developing appropriate programs for them. We currently read much about returning to basics. It is our position that the word "basics" includes not only the three r's, but also knowledge and appreciation of our heritage, physical sur- roundings, literature and the arts. We also include good health habits, knowledge of our political - 128 • Address 113 Pleasant St., So.

Most importantly, we should like to foster an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and to strengthen the partnership between home and school as we seek these fundamental goals. In addition to our obligation to the students, we also have one to the taxpayers of Dennis and Yarmouth. As a result of increased efficiency and increased State aid, we expect to hold the 1977-78 assessment very close to that of 1975-76 and 1976-77. It should be noted that while we main- tain this stable assessment, we anticipate paying for the new administration building, significant renovations to the John Simpkins School, and in- creased costs of wages, materials and services. As our costs continue to increase, as we pay our 40% share of the principal and interest of the approved high school addition, and as we meet our newly mandated costs for unemployment com- pensation after January 1, 1978,, it is likely that we can anticipate some increase in 1978-79 but with prudent management we shall attempt to minimize the impact. The building needs projections of a year ago are still accurate. The Ezra H. Baker School is the only one, except the high school, which lacks sufficient space. By transferring fifth grade youngsters from Baker to Wixon in September 1977, we shall main- tain a sound educational program until at least 1980. The School Committee has established an elementary space needs sub -committee which will continue to monitor the Dennis elementary needs and options along with the administration and citizen groups. I wish to thank the School Committee, the entire staff, elected and appointed officials in both towns, and the large number of volunteers who have continually helped and supported me during the past year. Report of EARLE C. BATCHELDER, Director of Instruction Early in 1976 the position of Director of Instruc- tion was filled, completing the administrative unit which provides regional leadership and coordina- tion in all academic areas. The new post brings into one office responsibility for all communicative arts and mathematics (reported separately on the next page) all other disciplines, adult education and community education, and overall supervision of instructional staff at all levels. At the time two curricula studies were already underway. A committee of teachers had been con- sidering the proper sequence and content of social studies for grades K-12, with basic emphasis on grades K-8. Similarly, a committee of teachers had been studying the science curriculum. By the spring of 1976 a basic text for grades 1-5 had been adopted, and by the close of the calendar year, a proposed curriculum for social studies, K-8, and science, grades 6-8, were nearing completion and will be implemented in September 1977. In the meantime, several other committees have been formed and are working on reviews of exist- ing programs or consideration of others. One such committee has been discussing the implementation of computers to the system, from Middle School instruction regarding uses of computers in our so- ciety (computer literacy) to much more sophisti- cated instruction at the high school, including programming, plus the use of computers in de- partments other than math, particularly science and business. Another committee is studying the issue of what can be done for the talented or gifted student. Still another is considering what kinds of workshops and seminars can be provided to assist teachers in their efforts to provide quality education. 129 Finally, the Community Education Advisory Coun- cil has been actively involved in considering after- school programs for children, a Human Services Fair to be held in conjunction with the Adult Education Exhibit, and the possibility of television services to enable community groups to present programs on Cablevision. In short, it is the intent of this office to develop a regional academic, social and recreational pro- gram which will benefit not only the students of the Dennis -Yarmouth school system but all seg- ments of the towns/ populations. Report of THOMAS M. LA GRASTA, Coordinator, Special Education Services Since the enactment of Chapter 766 in September of 1974, there have been significant and positive changes noted for special needs children in the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. A co- operative 'effort among the administration, class- room teachers and special needs staff has resulted in more special needs children being taught within the public schools and in the regular classroom. A better understanding and acceptance of the unique educational needs of children has been fostered with a commitment to provide the special- ized instruction that is so often required. In school, the emphasis has been placed upon providing the special needs child with as many normal experiences as possible. This includes teach- ing the child in the regular classroom whenever it can prove beneficial, and providing special education instruction by a trained specialist on a tutorial or small group basis. Community volunteers have been invaluable by working with the special needs child in the classroom and special needs area. The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District has joined with the Cape Cod Collaborative and Opera- tion Head Start in beginning programs for special needs children of pre-school age. It has been recog- nized by educators that early childhood education can result in enormous gains for special needs children. Coupled withparent training, these chil- dren should be better prepared once they enter kindergarten. As we reflect upon our progress to date, and look to the future, our goals for an improved special needs program will include: 1. Increased parent training for special needs children; 2. Increased occupational training programs; 3. Increased pre-school training programs; 4. Increased teacher training for regular class- room teachers. Although the mandate of Chapter 766 has placed heavy demands on the entire school staff, the efforts to date have resulted in improved services for special needs children in the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. Our task is not easy, but is one which can only serve to help strengthen the entire school program. The education of special needs children has become an integral part of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District. Report of CURRICULUM SUPERVISORS DANIEL N'ICHOLSON, District Supervisor of Mathematics THERESE J. D'ABRE, District Supervisor of Communicative Arts June 1976 marked the completion of the first year of a regional curriculum in Communicative Arts and Mathematics. Differing thoughts and di- rections regarding the two programs were brought forth, debated, and generally reconciled. Efforts were made to maximize the utilization of present texts and materials through adjustment of curricu- lum objectives and program sequence. The regional testing program, established in September 1975, was extended to the new school year. It has served the district both as a short-term check on general pupil progress and a means of revising the scope and sequence in these two cur- riculum areas. The S. R. A. national testing program indicates that achievement levels in Communicative Arts and Mathematics continue to rise. In Mathematics, emphasis on the attainment of basic computational skills still dominate the pri- mary and intermediate grades. Middle schools now offer a full year of Algebra to those students fol- lowing successfully an accelerated program in Mathematics. The existing Mathematics program at the secondary level follows a possible five-year sequence through calculus. Communicative Arts, which integrates instruction in reading and English, has been implemented at the elementary level with a stress on the mastery of basic reading skills, a recognition of the conventions of the English language, and oral and written composition. The base for student achievement in Reading and English • has been strengthened by a new Kinder- garten program in oral language development. District -wide consistency in curriculum content has been further developed with the design and distribution of a spelling guide for grades one through six, the adoption of a reading series for grades four and five, the adoption of a grammar series for grades seven through nine, a compila- tion of literature resources which provides for a 130 similar background in literature for middle school students, and the coordination of the eighthgrade program with the High School's English Department. To summarize the year in Communicative Arts and Mathematics is to reflect upon the aims of the programs themselves. Objectively, they seek to build a base of academic skills sufficient to meet the daily needs of all students attending the Dennis - Yarmouth Regional Schools. At the same time, they seek to provide a foundation and challenge to further study beyond the high school level. If teacher assessment of the programs and national testing are possible indicators of success — then, the two curriculum areas are becoming increasingly effective. Report of CHARLES P. LIBERTY, Principal Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School The year 1976 was marked by a major accom- plishment relating to High School students --namely, the approval of an addition to our existing facilities which will allow us to return to a normal school day during the school year 1979-80. This positive action by the townspeople of Dennis and Yarmouth has served as an incentive to the student body and staff to continue operating under the less than ideal conditions of double sessions in a very pro- fessional and positive manner. The improvements in student achievement and services noted in my 1975 report are continually emphasized as being top priority. During the past year the staff of our Reading Center has been increased, an Independent Study Program, complete with student guidelines, has been established, a Weighted Grade System to increase the validity of students' marks has been put into effect and plans are being finalized to return to Semester -Length Courses for the school year 1977-78. Additionally, a major thrust to improve the writing skills of our student body has been undertaken by our entire professional staff. No longer will a student's English class be the only class where writing skills are emphasized. Generally, I feel we should all be proud of our student body regarding their participation in both school and community activities. Our percentage of students involved in Club and Athletic Activities continues to be high, and the large number of students involved in Nursing Home Volunteer Work, Swimming with the Handicapped and Skating with the Handicapped are to be commended. In conclusion, I would personally like to thank the professional, clerical, custodial and cafeteria staffs of our High School for their continued ex- emplary efforts in the students' behalf. Additionally, the support of the School Committee, our Superin- tendent, Mr. Joseph E. Killory, the residents of our two communities, and the parents is greatly appre- ciated. My position continues to be a challenging and rewarding experience. CLERICAL STAFF Mary H.

These generous gifts—added to our previousbalances— have made it possible to disperse to individuals and colleges $4,000.00 during the year. Our sincere thanks go to the following donors: Yarmouth Trust Fund Commissioners, the Estate of Gertrude A. Gill, the Drama Club and memorials for Ann Castonguay, William P. Frost, Howard B. Munroe and Peter Maxtone-Graham. The Trustees voted awards amounting to $3,950.00 prior to commencement, 1975, five of which were presented by check at Awards Night, with the remainder to be paid to the college of the students' choice. Additional monies deposited in the Trust Fund this year will enable us to assist deserving students in 1976 and, hopefully, far into the future. As always, this facet of the School Committee's responsibility is truly rewarding, since we are thus afforded the privilege of honoring and rendering financial assistance to those who have performed meritoriously during their highschool career.

GETCHELL, Principal MATTACHEESE MIDDLE SCHOOL The Mattacheese Middle School plays an impor- tant part in the entire maturational process of each of the pupils who pass through its doors at 7:50 a.m. each day. The development of good work habits, good health habits, attitudes of friendliness and cooperation, and good citizenship go hand-in- hand with academics in enabling each pupil to experience growth to the limit of his or her ability. This year's 866 emerging adolescents represent an increase of 11 pupils over the Octiber 1, 1975 figures. Mattacheese continues to operate under a "school - within -a -school" team concept, wherein one-half of each grade of pupils is assigned to a faculty team of academic teachers. Thus, each pupil on the team has the same reading, English, mathe- matics, social studies and science educator as every other pupil on the team. In the seventh and eighth grades, the shared services of a French or Spanish instructor are provided. Pupils meet with each academic teacher once daily. Related arts teachers, to whom pupils are as- signed for one double period daily, consist of educators in the following areas: art, crafts, music (2), industrial arts (2), home economics (2), library science, health and physical education (4). Mattacheese focuses itself, philosophically, to- tally upon the pupils. The more knowledgeable a team of teachers becomes about an individual student's needs, the better the educational plan can be to meet those needs. Schedules unique to the individual student are the rule, rather than the exception. Variable pupil grouping allows pupil -teacher ratios extending from one-to-one to a whole team - to -one, dependent upon the needs of the pupil(s) and content area under study. Grouping is a changing, dynamic activity planned to create for each student the optimum learning atmosphere. Varied groupings are possible from subject to sub- ject, or within each subject, according to readiness, maturity, skills, content, achievement and need. Dramatics, chorus, band, cheerleading and special interest clubs join intramural and interscholastic athletes (tennis, soccer, field hockey, flag football, basketball, softball, track and field and gymnas- tics) to provide a varied after-school activity pro- gram for all. Fully one-quarter of the school is participating on any given afternoon in one or more of these co -curricular opportunities. Report of WILLIAM F. GRIFFITH, Principal NATHANIEL H. WIXON MIDDLE SCHOOL The 1975-76 school year proved to be most ex- citing and educational for the students at the Nathaniel H. Wixon Middle School. The presenta- tion of "Annie Get Your Gun" and the class trip to Washington, D.C., were major activities under- taken during the school year. All students, teachers, parents and friends should be congratulated for the success of both endeavors. Upon entering our Bicentennial Year, our school was the recipient of various American flags to commemorate the anniversary. These flags, old and new, adorn the walls of our auditorium. We would like to take this opportunity to once again thank the dedicated chairperson and members of the Dennis Bicentennial Commission for these most appropriate gifts. In the fall of 1976, the Wixon Community Schools Council was organized. The Council brings to- gether interested citizens, parents, children and school people whose goal is to provide educational, recreational, social and cultural services for all people in the Wixon Community. The functions of the Council are many. It monitors the Wixon Adult Education program, it has developed a variety of after-school and Saturday programs, and is cur- rently planning a number of family-oriented ac- tivities. In the short span of time that it has been operating, the Wixon Community School Council has met with success, but with continued community support it should fulfill its great potential. Since its opening in 1969, the Nathaniel H. Wixon Middle School has endeavored to live up to basic tenets of the middle school philosophy. That is to provide for each student the best education com- mensurate with his individual needs, capacities and limitations. This is being done through more flexible time arrangements for students in various areas of their studies, through adaptation of some team -teaching, and the development of a variety of exciting learning programs. Our second year of the SAIL (Student Assistance and Independent Learning) program was most beneficial to both 135 teachers and students. Courses such. as Vocational Awareness, Home Mechanics, Portrait Drawing, Debating, Band and Chorus were only some of those offered for the cultural and intellectual en- richment of our students. Courses in Mathematics, Science and English were offered for both remedial and enrichment purposes. Presently we are studying plans to house Grade 5 at the Nathaniel H. Wixon Middle School. Tran- sition eiipenses and renovations are being con- sidered and we feel that the move from Ezra H. Baker to Nathaniel H. Wixon will be accomplished with little difficulty. The personnel look forward with enthusiasm, to the arrival of Grade 5. Report of WALTER S. MORLEY, Principal EZRA H. BAKER SCHOOL The addition of a custodial storage room on the outside of the Ezra H. Baker School and the organi- zation of a team -teaching classroom on the inside made possible the opening in September of two new classrooms and increased the school's capacity to educate children even as enrollments reached a momentary high mark of 900. The October 1 figure of 897 was exceeded by three for two days before the tide receded and enrollments dropped to the 876 of December 31. Enrollment decreases are expected during the winter months, so they are not interpreted as changes in enrollment patterns. The annual trend, however, seems ever to be upward in no constant, therefore predictable, fashion. It was this uncer- tainty about the school's capacity which prompted the School Committee to vote for removal of the fifth grade from the Kindergarten -grade five or- ganization and to place it in a middle school organization embracing grades 5-8. I am sorry to see the dissolution of the K-5, 6-8 structure which has been steadfastly maintained over several years of population stress, but the uncertainties of tomorrow could easily produce a grossly overcrowded Ezra H. Baker School with diminished educational opportunities for the chil- dren; therefore, I consider the action of the Com- mittee prudent and timely. Some day, hopefully, we shall be able to return to Utopia. Changes accomplished in the summer of 1976 permitted the creation in the Shop of a three - station Arts Center where Art, Household Arts, and Industrial Arts classes have been carried on in harmonious proximity. The addition of a kiln to the Arts Center gives a new dimension and texture to the 'art program productive of varied and in- teresting experiences for children. We are grate- ful to PACTS and the School Committee for the combination of effort which resulted in the purchase and installation of the kiln. The team -teaching arrangement previously men- tioned, blended two fifth -grade classes and two teachers in a cooperative teaching -learning pro- gram. It utilized the large room formerly assigned to seventh -eighth grade science, and was one of the moves necessary to the provision of additional classrooms for grade two and grade four. The teachers have worked well together in the environ- ment and the children have prospered. I am proud to report for the pupils and staff that the 200th anniversary of the United States was enthusiastically, appropriately and continu- ously celebrated in the Ezra H. Baker School. All the resources of art, music, and drama were em- ployed as vehicles of expression for the exuberant spirit of more than 800 boys and girls who, think- ing more about their country, loved it more. There was nothing of the self-conscious in their demon- strations of patriotism. They sang with full voices, painted the flag with bold strokes, and marched -- yes, somewhat out of step but — proudly. The apex of the Bicentennial was, undoubtedly, the planting of our own Liberty Tree and the interr- ment of a time capsule under the commemorative stone in our courtyard. Contained in the capsule are examples of the children's school work, news- papers, town reports, messages, and letters, and it will be the charge of the Principal of the Ezra H. Baker School to preserve this memorial until the capsule is opened in 2076. I commend all the pupils and staff for their de- votion to the Bicentennial cause, with special rec- ognition to Mr. Alan Cavanagh and Mr. Thomas Griffin, who served as Bicentennial chairmen for the school in 1975 and 1975-76 respectively. And I further commend the staff for its collective dedica- tion to the education of children, one of the most exhausting but unquestionably fulfilling occupa- tions in the world. It is with sadness that we recall the passing of one of our most respected colleagues. Rita Winship died on July 20, following a long illness. She will, be remembered well by those who worked with her, but particularly will she be remembered by the many pupils upon whom she left her mark of energy, self-reliance, and candor. Thank you, Mr. Killory, for your understanding and assistance in 1976. Report of GEORGE A. CROSS, Principal JOHN SIMPKINS SCHOOL The John Simpkins School, with its superior spirit, is now making new inroads with its building reno- 135 vation and upgrade. The exciting programs that were stymied by poor physical plant and obsolete fixtures, now are rewarded with positive compre- hensive changes. The heating plant and its controls provide even heat to the teaching stations through- out, the painting adds a new dimension to our image, and the redevelopment of a Library area and program complete our goals. The electrical service is replaced and operative, the septic sys- tem waiting for Spring thaw and the future plans direct us toward more upgrading internally and externally, making our building not only aca- demically superior but also physically. The teaching organization remains that of teams with the Self -Contained Class being the alternative in learning. The family multi -grade group was dissolved in favor of the team -teaching, self- contained class and at present no multi -aged groups are planned. The goal of our school is to help every child discover the excitement and won- der of learning while understanding his own uniqueness and image. The teams plan together in program development, participate in curriculum development and reorganize the individual needs of all students. We're proud of the programs at John Simpkins and our doors are always open. Report of CHARLES T. ORLOFF, Principal MARGUERITE E. SMALL SCHOOL It is with pleasure that I submit this, the final annual report of our second century. Those of us charged with the education of the young reflect upon the past year with a sense of accomplishment and look to the future with optimism. During the last school year we have witnessed the beginning of an expanded view of childhood education, one that sees teaching and learning as more than academic, and not always restricted to the classroom environment. Meeting on a bi-weekly schedule, the newly formed Marguerite E. Small Community Advisory Council reviewed the school's programs and activi- ties and began the process of developing new ways to meet the demands for increased, improved, and accelerated learning. Under the direction of the newly appointed Com- munity Coordinator, Richard Norton, a compre- hensive Saturday Morning Program was introduced. Based on a philosophy that encourages and devel- ops the special talents and interests of each child, courses were offered in Ecology, Photography, Arts and Crafts, Cooking, Gymnastics and Soccer. Ap- proximately 160 children participated in the first seven week session. Another new program, initiated through the Advisory Council, was recreational skating. This program, coordinated by Mr. Douglas Kenney at the Cape Cod Coliseum, offered the unique oppor- tunity for parents and childrento participate to- gether in an enjoyable and healthy activity. Children were given a sense of self-confidence and accomplishment in a non-competitive atmosphere. Within the school environment, new efforts were also being made to insure that individual differ- ences were being met and possibilities of failure reduced. By September of 1976, plans had been formu- lated for an alternative primary school program. Working as a team, four teachers and one aide developed an organization that allowed children in kindergarten and first grade to be mixed for art, music and gym, and for certain reading and math skills. It is believed that experiences provided in the K-1 class will be more appropriate for each child's personal level of development, potential and in- terest. The basic assumption of the program is that children will develop more naturally and will advance in their studies without pressure. As we look forward to the beginning of our third century, we must recognize that the talent we work with is unlimited. Our narrow view of intelligence must be expanded as must the programs that we offer the community. No longer can we afford to ignore our pre-school children or other citizens whose continuing education is an essential prop- erty in our rapidly changing world. It has long been recognized that good schools can make a community a better place to live. We are again grateful for your support. Report of JAMES J. CLARKE, JR., Principal South Yarmouth Elementary School It is a pleasure to submit my report a•s Principal of the South Yarmouth Elementary School. At South Yarmouth we are presently housing: Kindergarten 130 First Grade 145 Second Grade 145 420 Pupils The population of this school has remained about the same for the past two years. Our multi -grade grouping has expanded into three rooms of first and second graders working together in the same room. I see the opportunity in the future to house traditional self-contained classrooms, multi-age groups and team teaching all going on in the same 137 building at the same time. This will give the edu- cators and parents the flexibility to place a child in the atmosphere most conducive to his needs. I am pleased to report that there are no longer classes in the auditorium. The auditorium can now be used during the day for physical education classes. We are also able to present special pro- grams and plays by the use of chairs and the stage. This year, for the first time in many years, we were able to have a Thanksgiving and Christ- mas. play. This year we welcomed Ellen M. O'Connell as our new Community School Coordinator for the South Yarmouth Schools. I intend to work very closely with Mrs. O'Connell to develop programs that the community desires. I would also like to welcome Mrs. Pamela Callahan, Miss Margaret Winchell, and Mrs. Sandra Nagle who are new to South Yarmouth Elementary School, and note the return of Mrs. Susan Colton, who taught with us previously. We are in the process of changing Title I (a Fed- erally funded program) from a summer program to a year-round program. Three years ago the children under Title I received help in the summer. Last year the children were tutored by special teachers. This year, Title I teachers are working in the regular classroom with these children who need extra help. In the new program we can evalu- ate short and long-range progress and give the children continuous help all year round. In the area of children with special needs, it is our desire to help these children right in the regu- lar classroom setting. In some cases, it is still necessary to take these children out for short periods of time. In reviewing these programs, I really feel that we are meeting many of the special needs of these children. At this time I would like to congratulate Anna Taylor on the completion of twenty-five years of service in the South Yarmouth Cafeteria. We hope she is with us for many more. I would like to thank the teaching staff and the secretarial, cafeteria, and custodial staffs, who, with the assistance of countless community helpers, have made this a successful year for our children. ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO. Boston, Massachusetts To the School Committee of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District: We have examined the statement of assets and liabilities of the DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT (a not-for-profit school district organized under the laws of Massachusetts) as of June 30, 1976, and the related statements of changes in fund balances consolidated revenues and expenditures of operating funds and surplus revenues, appropriations and expenditures for the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the cir- cumstances. As is the practice with many school districts and municipalities in the Commonwealth of Massachu- setts, the School District has not maintained histori- cal cost records of its fixed assets and, accordingly, a statement of general fixed assets is not included in the accompanying financial statements. The School District follows accounting policies prescribed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts which vary in certain respects from generally ac- cepted accounting principles. The most significant difference relates to the use of the cash basis method for recording pension expenses for em- ployees. In our opinion, pension costs should be de- termined by actuarial methods instead of the cash or pay-as-you-go basis as described in Note 5 to the accompanying financial statements. Information is not available to quantify the cumulative liabili- ties for pension benefits which would be reflected in the statement of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 1976 had the School District followed the actu- arial method of accounting for pension costs. For the year ended June 30, 1976, the pension costs that had not been provided are estimated at ap- proximately $32,000. The School District also records sick leave benefits on a cash basis. While we believe that such leave benefits should be recorded as vested, the method followed by the School District is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as prescribed by the AICPA audit guide for govern- mental units. The sick leave benefits not provided as vested in the year ended June 30, 1976 are estimated at approximately $18,000. Accumulated sick leave benefits as of June 30, 1976, not re- flected on the statement of assets and liabilities, approximated $116,000. In our opinion, except for the effect of omitting provisions for pension costs on an actuarial basis, the accompanying financial statements present fairly the assets, other than fixed assets, and lia- bilities of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District as of June 30, 1976, and the changes in fund balances, consolidated revenues and expendi- tures of operating funds and surplus revenues, appropriations and expenditures for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted ac- counting principles.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting In accordance will, general practices of munici- pal government units and the requirements of the Bureau of Accounts of the Commonwealth of Mas- sachusetts, the accompanying financial statements include the transactions of the various funds of Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District reported on a modified accrual basis of accounting. On the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when they are available for use by the District to fund its current school year's operations and, except for pension and vested sick pay costs, expenditures are recognized as the related liabili- ties are incurred. The statements of revenues and expenditures are statements of financial activities of the funds related to the current reporting period; it does not purport to present the results of oper- ations or the net income or loss for the period. To the extent that general funds are used to finance activities within other fund groups, the amounts so provided are accounted for as transfers of revenues. Fund Accounting The District follows fund accounting procedures whereby, for accounting and reporting purposes, resources for various purposes are classified in a self -balancing set of accounts for recording the assets, liabilities, a fund balance and changes in the fund balance in accordance with the limitations imposed by the funding agency. The School Dis- trict's funds consist of: Surplus Revenues Surplus revenues represent the cumulative bal- ance resulting from all financial transactions relat- ing to the administration, instruction and main- tenance activities of the School District. Construction Funds The construction funds include the financial trans- actions related to the design and construction of the administration building and the addition to the high school. Cafeteria and Other Funds The cafeteria and other funds include principally the financial transactions relating to activities of the school lunch program as well as funds desig- nated for athletic events and band activities. 143 Federal and State Grant Funds The Federal and state grant funds include the transactions related to Federal or state sponsored programs to assist disadvantaged students and fulfill other specialized educational requirements. Trust Funds The trust funds include receipts from various donors which are used to provide awards to worthy students. Accrued Contract Payroll Certain teachers covered by the School District's contract with the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional Teach- ers' Association covering the fiscal year ended June 30, 1976 elect to receive their annual salary over a twelve-month period beginning in September and ending in August. Amounts not yet paid to these teachers as of June 30, 1976 are accrued by the School District at that date and are included in expenditures of the period then ended. Fixed Assets Equipment purchases financed with operating funds and debt principal payments related to facili- ties are funded annually through assessments (based on budgeted amounts of such expenditures) to the participating towns for each fiscal period. Accordingly, related payments are recorded as expenditures against the budget for the current period. As is the practice with many school districts and municipalities in the Commonwealth of Massachu- setts, the School District has not maintained his- torical cost records of its fixed assets, and accord- ingly, a statement of general fixed assets is not included in the accompanying financial statements. (3) School District Assessments Under terms of the agreement, as amended, es- tablishing the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, the School District's costs are apportioned and assessments are levied against the towns form- ing the District. The District's costs are apportioned as follows: Cost to be Apportioned Principal and interest relating to debt issued prior to 1973 Principal and interest relating to debt issued subsequent to 1973 Special operating costs, principally related to providing evening educational programs Operating costs Basis of Apportionment Equalized valuation of the respective towns Enrollment of the respective towns Pupil hours of the respective towns relating to such programs Enrollment of the respective towns (4) Leased Facilities The School District has leases covering four ele- mentary and two middle schools within the towns of Dennis and Yarmouth, whereby the District has the use of these facilities through June 30, 1990, with an option for an additional fifteen -year period, at an annual cost of $1 for each of the facilities. Under the terms of the agreements, the School District is responsible for the costs of operation, including utilities and insurance, and maintenance of these facilities. In addition, the School District has leased an office building until September 1976 with an ex- tension through January 7, 1977. The annual cost, under the terms of the lease, is $30,000, payable in quarterly installments of $7,750. (5) Employee Benefit Plans Retirement Benefits Certain administrative and other professional employees and teachers of the School District par- ticipate individually in a contributory retirement plan administered by the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement Board. The School District does not contribute to this plan. Retirement benefits are provided for other em- ployees of the School District by the District's par- ticipation in the Barnstable County Retirement Association. Under the provisions of this plan, employees contribute certain percentages of their pay and are eligible for retirement benefits after attaining the prescribed age and/or period of service criteria. In addition, the School District contributes to this plan an annual amount deter- mined by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts— Department of Banking and Insurance primarily on the basis of projected annual benefit payments for the year ("Pay -as -you go"). The School District's contribution to this plan for fiscal year 1976 was $23,330. The amount of unfunded vested benefits of the Barnstable County Retirement Association was last determined as of January 1, 1974. The amount of such benefits related to the Regional School District has not been separately reported; how- ever, by comparing the aggregate pay of partici- pating employees of the School District to similar data of the Barnstable County Retirement Associa- tion, it is estimated that, on an actuarial basis, annual pension cost would have been approxi- mately $55,000. Unfunded vested beenfits are estimated to be approximately $1,800,000. It is anticipated that the excess of actuarially calculated 144 provisions for annual pension cost over that re- flected on a pay-as-you-go basis will increase in fiscal 1977 and future years. Sick Leave Benefits Under terms of the contracts covering the em- ployees of the School District, certain employees are entitled to fifteen days of paid sick leave an- nually. Unused sick leave may be accumulated indefinitely up to a specified maximum. In the event of death, separation or retirement of an employee having completed ten years of service, such employee or the employee's estate shall be compensated at a rate of $15 per day for accu- mulated sick leave. As of June 30, 1976, such accumulated vested sick leave of Regional School District employees approximated 7,750 days. No recognition has been given in the accounts of the School District to the liability approximating $116,000 for these vested benefits or to the $18,000 increase in the liability for vested benefits earned during fiscal 1976. (6) Notes and Bonds Anticipation Notes Anticipation notes are notes issued to banks for periods of less than one year, and may be reissued upon expiration of the original maturity. Such notes were issued to provide temporary financing for the construction of the School District's adminis- tration building, expected to be completed early in 1977. The School District intends ultimately to re- place these borrowings by issuing serial bonds after the facility is completed. The maximum amount of anticipation notes out- standing during the fiscal year was $385,000, the average of monthly outstanding balances was $288,500 and the average interest rate was 4.2 percent. Serial Bonds The 2.9% Serial Bonds were issued as of May 1, 1963 in an aggregate amount of $700,000, matur- ing at a rate of 2% ($35,000 principal amount) annually. Interest payments are made semiannual- ly on November 1 and May 1 of each year. Serial bond principal payments included in the accompanying financial statements reflect, in addi- tion to this $35,000 annual payment, the final $80,000 principal payment to retire serial bonds issued in 1955. The serial bonds (including those to be used to refinance the anticipation notes) will be retired using funds raised through taxation by Dennis and Yarmouth. These future assessments for repay- ment of debt principal are reflected as assets on the accompanying statement of assets and liabili- ties. (7) Commitments The School District Committee has appropriated $165,000 for an administration building and $4,980,000 for an addition to the present high school building to be used for preparing archi- tectural and engineering plans for and construct- ing, originally equipping and furnishing these structures. ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO. Boston, Massachusetts To the School Committee of the Dennis -Yarmouth. Regional School District: We have examined the financial statements of the DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DIS- TRICT as of June 30, 1976 and for the fiscal year then ended and have issued our report thereon dated September 15, 1976, in which our opinion is qualified with respect to the failure to provide for the costs of employee pension plans accruing in excess of the amounts currently paid. Our ex- amination was made in accordance with generally 145 accepted auditing standards, and accordingly in- cluded such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered neces- sary in the circumstances. In connection with the examination referred to above, we have also examined the accompanying Reconciliation of Treasurer's Cash as of, and for the fiscal year ended, June 30, 1976. Our exami- nation included (1) confirmation of balances with the respective banks, (2) tests of the reconciliation from bank to book cash balances and (3) such other auditing procedures as we considered neces- sary in the circumstances. In our opinion, the Reconciliation of Treasurer's Cash presents fairly, when read in conjunction with the related financial statements, the financial information required to be set forth therein, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

"The first mention of the name of Yarmouth, as applied to this township, is found in the court record of January, 1639, in connection with the grant to Thacher, Howes and Crow. From the fact that this name was selected, it has been inferred that the settlers of this_town came from Yarmouth, in England. This may have been true of some individuals, but does not apply to the settlers as a body. They did not come from any single locali- ty. Some were Eastern County men, some were from the Mid- Iand.Counties, some from Wales, and others from the South of England. Yarmouth, the principal seaport on the eastern coast of England, was the place of embarkation and debarkation be- tween .that country and Holland, and was naturally associated in ‘.the minds of the Pilgrims with their experiences in the mother -country. Hence, perhaps, the name." CHARLES F. SWIFT from History of Old Yarmouth r Cover: Captain Bangs Hallet House • Yarmouth Port, Mass. "Home of the Historical Society of.

As is the usual case, the issues are what finally attract people and it was the issue of changing the Selectmen's roles from full to part time that did it in November. With the huge crowd a speaking limitation control had to be instituted, so the Moderator brought along a kitchen timer to limit speakers to three minutes per presentation. This moved the meeting along smoothly. At other times during the year innovations were instituted to stimulate participation and get the meeting out of the dull, plodding routine into which it had fallen. These innovations in- cluded limiting the number of times a person would be permitted to speak; moving all of the microphones to the front so that all voters could see the speaking without neck injury; elimina- ting the coffee breaks by -moving the re- freshment area right into the meeting hall. These few changes will not do as much for get- ting people out to the meeting as the hard core importance of issues will do. Taxpayers re- spond to matters of importance regardless of how lethargic or apathetic they may appear in the interim. For the November 19 meeting the change was made to a daytime meeting; and on the whole, this scheduling worked very well. It may be that 7 the part of the good attendance can be atri-_ buted to the scheduling (I hope so), as I an- ticipate the use of Saturday in the future. I made other observations this year which reaffirmed past conclusions. Among them are that preparation of the initial presentation by any proponent of an article is very important. A full explanation to the voters as to what is re- quested and why the request is necessary goes a long way toward eliminating inquiries which appear elementary and obvious. Also if the peti- tioner of an article has worked diligently with the Selectmen and Finance Committee to work out their differences if some exist, the feeling of unison that prevails between them will filter to the voter; and their article will have a greater chance of passage. Further, the speaker who comes to the meeting floor with an attitude that the voters can be fooled is fooled himself. The voters want the facts as they are, not as the speaker interprets them or believes the voter should have them. I look forward to a series of Annual Town Meetings and Specials in 1978-1979, wherein the participants have an attitude of progress and wherein the Town Committees and Depart- ments work in harmony for the best functioning of our Town.

We encourage you to read the reports and to examine, in particular the financial data as sub- mitted by the Town Accountant. At the outset of this report and as it pertains to the financial posture of our town's govern- ment, we are pleased to inform you that the town's financial statements of the various funds of the town underwent a detailed audit by the firm of Laventhol and Horwath, Certified Public Accountants, for the period October 1974 end- ing June 30, 1977, and such financial practices as were found to exist were being accomplish- ed in conformity with accounting and reporting practices prescribed or permitted by the Department of Corporations and Taxation, Bureau of Accounts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. A copy of the auditor's report is available for public reading and examination. The year of 1977 as it concerns your govern- ment's operations could properly be termed a year of the beginning of transition in both the government's institutional and structural ar- rangement and adoption of changes to improve the single most important function of govern- ment—service to the citizens. With the foregoing in mind, an extensiver7nan- power utilization and management study.;was conducted over a period of several months in 1977 by the firm of James Driscoll Associates, a management consultant firm from Leorrrnster, Massachusetts. Studyand examination`of'the report has been ongoing during the latter mon- ths of 1977 with a view toward implementing many of the study's recommendations'gradual- ly over the next two years beginning in 1978. =V"' The management study confirmed the need for several substantive changes in organiza- tional structure which were earlier recommend- ed by the Town Government Study Committee. Changes in personnel administration, purchas- ing procedures, financial accountability and the professionalization of overall_ town government administration were areas strongly. recom- mended for. change. Each of these. important functions will.be addressed in 1978. . One of the most gratifying and meaningful ad- ditions to the operating staff was the employ- ment of a highly 'qualified ,.Health Officer, Mr: Dale Karnes. Yarmouth can now look -forward to having a focal point for the solution of the miriad of health' and human services requirements. a' town of Our size demands. Mr. Karnes' 'pre sence oh the staff becomes doubly important. as Yarmouth undergoes a total Environmental Impact -Study' which: was directed by' the U.S: Environmental Protection Agency in connection with. Yarmouth's application for'federal funding' for much needed relief of private sub -surface sewage s tems as well as the disposal of sewage waste. Although the age of computerization burst upon the American scene many years ago in both the private and public sectors, Yarmouth is only presently coming to grips with the subject. But it is doing so aggressively and with a deter- mined sense of purpose: The many.day-to-day functions- now and heretofore accomplished manually will, hopefully, in 1978 be converted to computers. A study in this regard began in late 1977 and will be ready for evaluation --and, sub- ject to a vote by the voters, implemented during -'1978-79. 10 'Early in 1978 will see the filling of the Deputy Assessor's position created by 1977 Town Meeting. Unfortunate delays during 1977 prevented the filling of the position in a more timely manner; however, by March of 1978 the assessors' office should begin to. undergo substantial and necessary changes. Perhaps the, single. most important action and,: itor fight be stated, far-rea.chingi.change, that .occurred in 1977 was the overwhelming vote Yby.,town„meeting. voters authorizing this Board to pr$ceed, to establisIi::.the office of an executive secretary' "and,to -sim.0 a. eously move from a 3 -member full time to a 5 -member part time Board of Selectmen. Again, as 1978 begins, Yarmouth's government,.wtlQtoin the hundreds of other similar ,,governments .in the Commonwealth and throughout America that have government administrators professionally trained to handle the complexities of municipal management. We cannot conclude this brief report without sharing with you facts that distress us to write about and you as a taxpayer to read, and this has to do with the cost of operating your government. The rate Of inflation that America and the world has been experiencing these past several years impacts equally on govern- mental operations as well as on the individual householder. Supplies, fuels, utilities, equip- ment and payrolls, all necessary to the provi- sion of public services cost more today than a year ago and the same statement will hold true a year from now. It an inescapable fact of life, as unpleasant as it may. seem. More than 50% of our tax bills go to support our schools, none of which we would deny doing. Salaries and wages of public employees approximate 85% of our budgets. As your selectmen we are ever conscious of these facts and determined to do whatever is possible to lessen such a financial burden at the same time being aware of the ser- vices required for the health, welfare and safety of all the citizens. We wish to thank all the town employees for their devoted service, and we wish to extend a special vote of appreciation to the hundreds of volunteer citizens who serve on the boards, committees and commissions, for without their dedicated services given so freely the costs of town government would be beyond our capabil- ity to support. Finally, we wish to extend a special thanks to the members of the Finance Committee and newly reorganized Capital Budget Committee for their untiring efforts on behalf of the tax payers.

The number of employees in the assessors' office, despite the increased work load generated by the revaluation four years ago, is less than it was in 1974. However, plans are to increase the per- manent employee number in 1978 at the time the new Deputy Assessor commences work for the town. The function of property assessing and the laws which apply are subject to constant change, and to this extent the Chairman of the Board of Assessors attended seminars con- ducted by the Commonwealth of Massachu- setts, Department of Corporations and Taxa- tion. The assessors extend their appreciation to the several town departments and office em- ployees who assisted the assessors through- out the year. Finally, the patience, understand- ing and cooperation of all the citizens is most appreciated.

The articles that were passed in the Annual Town Meeting on the re -districting of our four precincts were turned down by the Election Commissioners in Boston. We took a trip to the Commissioners' office with the Town Engineer, Selectmen, Town Clerk and Peter McDowell. We explained why we wanted the precinct lines changed to the new proposal and that we had worked very hard to abide by the general law and still be feasible for us. We had four pro- posals which we had worked out. We were very emphatically turned down on all of our pro- posals. So it is back to the drawing board and hope for another year. Therefore there is no hope for a precinct split but we are looking into changing the locations of the polling places. We have continuous registration in the Town of Yarmouth at the Town Clerk's Office from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. We feel by having open registration that there should be no excuse for residents not to register. The past year has been a real trying time for us. First, we tried something new by sending out our census in the mail. We had approx- imately 75% returned with many, many correc- tions made. This process is more work for us, but it is a more accurate record. After the.cen- sus were returned to us we forwarded them to an off -Cape Computer Center. They (Computer Center) processed the forms and returned a print-out to us for proof reading. Much to our surprise the computer center had a program problem, and we "lost" quite a few of our residents, others were put on the wrong street. After many, many long hours of corrections, ad- ditions and deletions, and five proof readings we found a local data processing service. We started in October with D.B.M. of Chatham and our census are being processed now for an ear- ly February 1978 mailing. Registered voters for the Town of Yarmouth on December 31, 1977, were: Precint 1 Precinct 2 Precinct 3 Precinct 4 Total 875 1550 5551 4253 12229 Respectfully submitted, LOUIS MORUZZI, Chairman KATHLEEN D.

Nonresidential structures shall either be similarly elevated or, together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities, be flood - proofed to not less than base flood elevations. '(Substantial improvement will have been decreed to occur when the first alteration of any structural part of the building commences.) • y 77 2. Where floodproofing is utilized in accordance with Section 1, a registered engineer or ar- chitect shall certify that the floodproofing methods are adequate to withstand the flood depths, pressures, velocities, impact and uplift forces, and other factors associated with the base flood. 3. Any new construction or substantial im- provement to be undertaken within said district shall be in accordance with the Massachusetts Uniform Building Code, Section 748.0. The Building Inspector shall (a) review all proposed development within the flood district to assure that all necessary permits have been received from those governmental agencies from which approval is required by Federal or State law, including Section 404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972, 33 U.S.C. 1334. (b) obtain and maintain records of elevation and floodproofing levels for new construction or substantial improvement within the flood district. 4. No land within areas designated as V (velocity) Zones on the F.I.A. Flood Hazard Rate Maps shall be developed unless such development is demonstrated by the applicant to be located landward of the reach of the mean high tide. All new construction and substantial improvement within the V Zones shall be elevated on adequately anchored pilings or columns, and securely anchored to such piles or columns so that the lowest portion of the structural members of the lowest floor (ex- cluding the piling or columns) is elevated to or above the base flood elevation; and certified by a registered professional engineer or architect that the structure is securely anchored to ade- quately anchored pilings or columns in order to withstand velocity waters and hurricane wave wash.

D. The Zoning Board of Appeals has notified the applicant for the Special Permit, in writing, that the actuarial rates will increase as the first floor elevation decreases, and that such construc- tion below base flood elevation level increases risks to life and property. 6. Upon the granting of such a Special Permit or a variance from this Section 18.05B, the Zoning Board of Appeals shall require that the Town of Yarmouth maintain a record of all such variances and Special Permit actions, including justification for issuance; and report such variances and Special Permits issued in its an- nual report to the Flood Insurance Ad- ministrator in accordance with the Department of Housing and Urban Development guidelines. 7.

Given under our hands and the Seal of the Town of Yarmouth, hereto affixed this first day of November, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred seventy- seven: Town of Yarmouth Board of Selectmen RALPH CIPOLLA, JR. BRADFORD L. TALLMAN MICHAEL L. MCGRATH A True Copy Attest: WILLIAM T. MCINTOSH, CONSTABLE HEALTH and HUMAN SERVICES Town Board of Health • Barnstable County Health Department Veterans' Services • Visiting Nurses • Council on Aging JAMES WATTS Grade 7 — Age 13 Report of the BOARD OF HEALTH It is with pleasure that we file for your in-• formation the Board of Health report for 1977. Many changes took place on and with the Board of Health during this past year that not only deserve mention but also cause excited an- ticipation for things to come. Town meeting action last spring authorized the new position of Health Officer for Yarmouth. Immediately thereafter a job description was prepared, the position advertised, applications accepted, and candidates were interviewed. The choice was made most difficult as many ap- plicants came well qualified and experienced in the field of Public Health. The Board feels par- ticularly fortunate to have acquired the services 1 of Mr. Dale Karnes as our Health Officer. Mr. Karnes brings with him a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology, a Masters Degree in Parasi- tology, and ten years of experience as a Direc- tor of Public Health in two other New England communities. The Board of Health looks for- ward to the implementation of many new pro- grams and is quite sure that the public health needs of our community will be aggressively served under Dale's guidance and supervision. Another important action of last year's town meeting authorized the Board of Health to ap- point a Health Advisory Committee to assist the Board of Health and the Health Officer in pre- paring, implementing and administering a com- prehensive program to serve all facets of the public health disciplines. The town was most fortunate to have so many well qualified profes- sionals in the health fields indicate a will- ingness to serve. Immediately upon• appoint- ment to the Health Advisory `Committee, the members found themselves reviewing all fun- ding requests from human service agencies on Cape Cod. Following the review of the Advisory Committee's report on funding requests, the Finance Committee stated that it had never received such a comprehensive report on hu- man service agency requests and programs in any past year. The results of this initial task auger well for future undertakings of our Health Advisory Committee. The budget objectives of the Board of Health, as submitted to the Finance Committee this year, read as follows: 106 "To begin implementing a comprehensive Public Health Service Program under the direc- tion of our new Health Officer. To include, but not limited to, an aggressive field inspection program, greater attention to public health mat- ters previously ignored and/or less than fully attacked, greater emphasis on preventive health programs, an extensive flu immunization program, and closer coordination of human ser- vice agency activities for the greater benefit of Yarmouth citizens." We realize that the objectives contain a long list of ambitious undertakings, but we also realize the extensive needs of our community. The Board of Health in 1977 showed a new face, took on many new dimensions. We look forward with great anticipation to the annual report we will file next year, reviewing the progress of programs we have recently begun. Respectfully submitted, MICHAEL L. McGRATH Chairman, Board of Health RALPH CIPOLLA, JR. BRADFORD L. TALLMAN • Report of the BARNSTABLE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT Through the provision of health protection., and health regulation, health promotion, health services and health planning the department continues to meet its responsibilities. Health, Protection: Communicable disease control has focused on the federally sponsored "swine flu" program. An additional registered nurse worked with,th,e two public health nurse' directors in coordinating the distribution of; vaccine and syringes, in assisting towns in the, planning for public ,clinics and in . gathering.., statistics. Funding for this nurse was provided, by the Massachusetts Department .of .Public; Health to the town of Barnstable directly. The reportable diseases were:. July -Dec. Jan. -June 1976- 1976 1977 1977 Animal bites 56 91 147 Chicken pox 0 3 3 German measles 1 2 3 Hepatitis 9 7 16 Measles 1 0 1 Meningitis 1 2 3 Mumps 3 0 3 Pertussis 2 0 2 Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever 1 1 2 Salmonella 9 6 15 Scarlet Fever 1 3 4 Shigellosis 1 0 1 Strep throats 18 27 45 Tuberculosis 2 3 5 Tularemia 0 1 1 Case finding, interpreting the epidemiologic procedures to be followed, and arranging for follow-up care, varied depending on the disease entity. Vaccines, diagnostic kits and supplies were distributed to physicians, public health nurses and health agents. Tuberculosis control activities have been an important part of the health department's program. Mantoux testing (a tuberculin skin test) mandatory for screening of all who work with children— teachers, volunteers, bus drivers and day care staff—is coordinated by the Barnstable County Health Department. Nursing home and residential home staff are also skin tested. Those needing further follow- up receive chest Xrays and medical evaluation at a Massachusetts Department of Public Health sponsored chest clinic. Barnstable County Health Department provides coor- dination of this follow-up with home health agencies, schools, day care centers and nur- sing homes in the fifteen towns of Barnstable County. The five cases of Tuberculosis oc- curring in the '76'77 fiscal years as well as their contacts were also followed closely by Barn- stable County Health Department staff. Current information on international travel is received weekly. Travelers were advised on required immunizations and their international health certificates were approved. The Barnstable County Health Department laboratory provided bacteriological analyses of samples of milk, shellfish harvesting areas, and well, pond and ground waters; this year chemical analyses have been done on selected water samples especially for the presence of nitrates which would also indicate pollution. 107 .1 A determination of freedom from lead paint is now required under certain rules and regulations pertaining to buildings where pre- school children would be. The chemical examination of paint -chip samples for lead paint is a simple method which we now use. We hope to improve the scope and caliber of this testing service. The extent of lead poisoning in children is not known, information seems to indicate that it is sub -clinical if it exists at all. In addition, sanitarians provided utensil swab studies, inspections of restaurants and mobile food services, also inspections of swimming pools, beaches and pond waters, of schools, and day care centers, and they work closely with health agents and Boards of Health in the enforcement of the Sanitary Code. Health Promotion: Actually all aspects of health protection include health promotion, since the staff provide scientific data and offer educational services. Work -shops for Health Agents were held, as well as three workshops for Day Care Center Staff. A planned series of five seminars was held' for community health nurses on the subject "The Role of the Community Nurse In the Care of the Cardiac Patient," with continuing education units granted, 31 nurses attended. Additional programs were offered in mental health, tuberculosis management, alcoholism, and an average of 25 attended each session. School programs on "Postural Screening" were held in the Nauset Regional Schools; 36 nurses, physicians, physical education staff and administrators attended, with 0.4 con- tinuing education units offered. Classroom education in dental health and assistance to nurses and teachers was offered in seven elementary schools. The Dental;: Hygienists _Association met monthly with planned study clubs for credits. The medical social worker has participated in the planning and implementation of a series of workshops provided through the Mental Health. Continuing Education Consortium. This project was funded by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare and developed by McLean Hospital, New England Medical Center and Boston University School of Social Work. The first conference was for the non- professional providers of patient care in long term care facilities. The Health Resource Center at the Cape Cod t Community College is co-sponsored by_ this department. Two public meetings were held to demonstrate the use of the audiovisual equipment, available for members to borrow, and the types of teaching materials available on loan. Health Services: Dental screening, prophylaxis and flouride treatment were given to elementary age children in the schools. Consultation to the school nurses, assistance in the development of health policies and regulations pertaining to the use of psychotropic drugs, discussions about ap- plications for waiver from the existing state requirements, instruction in administration and reading of tuberculin skin tests were services provided. Seven home health agencies involving eleven nurses and three visiting nurses received supervision as needed, attendance at their professional advisory committee meetings, preparation and participation in surveys for medicare certification. All seven agencies were re -certified. In-service education opportunities were provided or obtained for them. Leadership and participation in regional planning for these agencies continues with the Southeast Regional office of the Department of Public Health and the Massachusetts Association of Community Health Agencies. Consultation has been provided to the staff and administration of the Falmouth Nursing Association and the Visiting Nurse Association of Central Cape Cod. Medical Social Services were expanded, with a full-time graduate student from Boston College School of Social Work for two semesters. Conferences and assistance to families is on a confidential basis, and arranged in conjunction with medical direction and ob- jectives; guidance for other health professionals has been provided. The Handicapped Children's Clinic has served 387 children and their families. Staff has participated in CORE evaluations at schools, have made recommendations for recreation and camp opportunities. Following an inquiry and a medical referral, families are visited at home prior to coming to the clinic and then followed as needed. We have participated in a management study conducted by research staff from M.I.T. under contract with the Division of Family Health Services. We have been most fortunate in having the full support of the staff and Trustees of Barnstable County Hospital 'in the use of facilities for clinical sessions. 108 I Health Planning: The compilation of monthly statistics, the documentation of inquiries for services, the participation on committees, the discussions at monthly staff meetings, the on- going self-evaluation of personnel and of services, provide a base for planning. Of major importance has been involvement with the new Health Systems Agency of Region V, and membership on the sub -area Council here, and on the taskforce on Health Promotion and Prevention of illness. Staff members are serving on planning and advisory committees of Elder Services, of Office for Children, town government, Department of Mental Health, Barnstable County Hospital, Cape Cod Hospital, the 208 Wastewater Management Project and home health agencies. Respectfully submitted, ESTHER G. HOWES, R.N., M.N., M.S., Certified Health Officer Report of the VETERANS' SERVICES Herewith is the 1977 Annual Report of the District Department of Veterans' Services. Again, as in years past, our office has been a very busy one, handling over 5000 personal visits and a like number of incoming telephone. calls. To keep abreast of all these problems, my' Staff and I have had to familiarize ourselves with all laws governing federal, state and local pro- grams and the changes that have taken place over the last year. We try to handle each case with speed, courtesy and dignity, by having a one-stop center. It is. the responsibility of this Department, under Chapters 115 and 483 of the Massachusetts General Laws to aid, assist, ad-. vise, file claims and explore each avenue of resource and revenues for the veterans and their dependents. In the past year, we have tried to have better, communications with each town sothat we are - more readily available to the people especially during non -working hours for emergencies. Following is a report from my Investigator, George C. Christopulos: It is my responsibility as the Veterans' District Investigator to follow up on applications of eligible recipients on a periodic basis and advise them of the existing benefits available to them on a federal, state and local level. • Other duties include emergency transfers to Veterans Administration Hospitals within our jurisdiction, and keeping abreast of laws and their changes governing the avenues of resources for benefits. During my first year of such responsibilities, I have found it to be challenging and rewarding in encountering the veterans and their dependents who are in need of aid and to be able to serve their needs. I wish to thank the Veterans' Agent and office staff for their cooperation and support for a suc- cessful first year. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE C. CHRISTOPULOS Investigator It is at this time that I would like to thank each employee of my respective towns for all the cooperation that they have bestowed on my staff and me during the last year. "many thanks!" Respectfully submitted, SIDNEY L. CHASE Director and Agent DISTRICT BOARD PAUL BROWN, Chairman RALPH CIPOLLA, JR. HENRY KELLEY LOUIS ROBERTI GEORGE BENWAY Report of the VISITING NURSES The Visiting Nurse Association provides on- going, nursing service to Yarmouth residents. The town -supported program includes instruc- tive services, i.e. health assessment visits which help determine a resident's health needs and direct him to appropriate medical care; preventive health visits to young families who canbenefit from guidance in the areas of child care and family health practices. Additional ser - 109 vices include disease control visits, instructive visits to individuals and families where there has been a communicable disease such as hepatitis, salmonella and the like. During 1977, the Visiting Nurse Association opened health counselling sessions to all adult residents of Yarmouth. These sessions which provide instruction and nursing direction ,on an individual basis are held every Wednesday afternoon at the Activities Building at the Long Pond Housing Development. A "Breathing Club" co-sponsored by the Visiting Nurse Association and the Southeastern Mass. Lung Association began its monthly sessions in Oc- tober at the Windsor Nursing Home and is open to all Yarmouth residents. Expectant Parents' Classes co -directed by the Maternity Depart- ment at Cape Cod Hospital and the Visiting Nurse Association continues to be available to area residents. In 1977, the Visiting Nurse Association began preliminary work to broaden professional ser- vice availability to its community members. In 1978, the agency will begin to be able to provide' speech and occupational therapy in addition to its present physical therapy and skilled nursing services. It will also have available a few agency based home health aides in addition to pro- viding this service on a contractual basis. The Visiting Nurse Association will be working with the Yarmouth Board of Health and Selectmen's office in trying to insure its citizenry of explor- ing every option available so a safe environ- ment and a means of access into the health delivery systems. A teaching program for the Visiting Nurse staff is anticipated in 1978. Such a program will enable them to develop exper- tise in teaching womens' groups of proper breast self-examination. The Visiting Nurse Association Board plans to seek grant monies to make possible the availability of a much needed social worker who could provide area residents with counselling direction to help them have a more healthful future. Yarmouth residents are encouraged to write their newly formed Health Advisory Committee re: gaps in health services they experienced in order to help them direct the Visiting Nurse Association and the Board of Health in health services development.

Executive Director DANNY FITZPATRICK Grade 6 — Age 11 a 110 ‘fri k l\� !k, IP Report of the COUNCIL ON AGING Each year we say "It's been an extremely busy year." It has always been so and 1976 and 1977 has been true to this pattern. The Dennis - Yarmouth Councils on Aging have, through their Center on Long Pond Drive in South Yar- mouth, enriched the lives of some 8900 citizens over the age of 59. The building is rented from the Dennis -Yarmouth Senior Citizens, Inc. and our services have included classes of various kinds, information and referral and counseling. Groups of enthusiastic busy people crowd the portals to receive instructions in needle- point, oil painting, quilting, rug hooking, bridge, dancing, romance languages and clothing con- struction. The cooperating towns give support to these programs, and the Barnstable County Extension Service have provided group learn- ing for those who wanted to develop skills in rush and cane seating. Cooking for two can be dull at any age so the Extension Service con- ducted a program on nutritious and interesting meals for seniors. Since our population statistics indicate that women are in the majority, it is to be expected that they take considerable interest in the craft and skills classes. The men, however, come in- to their own on "Play Day" which gives them an opportunity . to enjoy the sociability of their peers. Bridge, poker, pook, cribbage and chess are all extremely popular. Not to be outdone, the women have initiated a cribbage session and the pegs fly,every Friday afternoon. Duplicate Bridge has nearly outgrown the center and each Monday afternoon finds the center buzzing with some twenty tables of duplicate bridge. The mixed bowling teams are in their fourth season and now meet with the singles group in hotly contested sessions each Wednesday. The "do si do" crowd of square dancers en- joy their sport every Monday afternoon at the Congregational Church, Yarmouthport. Filing Medicare and Medex claims are a" necessary and perplexing nuisance for most, though a few do enjoy this exercise. A group of these retirees serve their fellowmen giving per- sonal consultation on a weekly basis by ap- pointment only. Since they Have been trained, the information and direction is most reliable. A volunteer consultant assists with the filing of Income Tax Returns each year. Older persons living alone need reassurance and support. A call to the director at the center will start the wheels turning to provide this ser- vice. A telephone reassurance line is maintain- ed for the purpose of contacting on a one-to- one basis those who may appreciate a daily friendly check up. Many of those affiliated with the center find that they have common interests and a mixed chorus of approximately 100 members make many personal appearances at Nursing Homes, Club, etc. and are becoming increasingly well known. The orchestra rehearses at the center every Thursday afternoon. Classes, interest groups and all activities would be in vain if health maintenance were not a viable part of the program. A retired Boston doctor with the assistance of two retired registered nurses operate a blood pressure clinic at the center each Wednesday serving an average of some 70 persons each week. We keep in touch with all who are identified with the center through a 5,000 piece mailing each month as the Council on Aging newsletter called "Milestones" goes out to each home. MRS.

Although we regretfully accepted the resignation of a long-time member and Chairman Sally Silver, her position was filled by the appointment of Mr. Samuel Gould, a Civil Engineer. • With a full complement of members and an in- creased work schedule from two to four meetings per month, the Board devoted itself to a comprehensive study of the Yarmouth Zoning By-law. Regarding our day to day actions and decisions, the Board attempted to follow a strict interpretation of the Zoning By-law in the belief that such a policy would indicate to us the assets and failures of the present by-law struc- ture and language. This Strict, consistent inter- pretation was also useful in informing the public what they should expect when appearing before the Planning Board. • The Board's main accomplishment for the year was the updating of the Zoning By-law to conform : with the state mandated Zoning Chapter 808, and a "beefing up" of definitions and organization of our present By-law. The Board also reviewed and approved seven sub- divisions and thirty-six Approval Not Required plans, creating one hundred forty eight new building lots. Five Open Space Village Plans were studied and the'8oard's findings were for- warded to the Board of Appeals. Thirty-nine plans for commercial building permits were reviewed with recommendations submitted to the Building Inspector. This Planning Board looks forward to serving the Town of Yarmouth in the year 1978 with a continued effort to improve our Zoning By-law. Respectfully submitted, YARMOUTH PLANNING BOARD RALPH V. PHILLIPS, -Chairman RAYMOND P. LAWTON, Vice -Chairman CHARLOTTE A. ELLIS, Clerk JOHN B. HOPKINS SAMUEL GOULD 114 Report of the ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS To the Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth: I am pleased to submit the report of the Board of Appeals for the calendar year 1977. During - that period, the Board held 20 hearings which involved 51 separate appeals from decisions of' the Building Inspector and/or Planning Board. The Board granted 13 variances in whole or in part, 3 petitions for variances were either dismissed or withdrawn without prejudice. Two other petitions for variances have been granted which have not been filed as yet with the Town Clerk. Fourteen other requests for variances were denied. In addition, the Board granted 9 special per- mits or approvals in whole or in part, denied 4 and allowed 5 others to be withdrawn or dis- missed without prejudice. One petition involv- ing an appeal of a Building Inspector's decision was denied. The Board collected $1240 in filing fees, which were turned over to the Town Treasurer to be returned to the General Fund. Respectfully submitted, DONALD HENDERSON Chairman Report of the HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: and Citizens of Yarmouth The Yarmouth Highway Department has a „ multifaceted area of responsibility including the maintenance of 416 miles of road or 1093 roads, 5282 drainage catch basins and hundreds' of traffic, safety and street signs to be placed and/or replaced in the course of a year. Within both budgetary and manpower limitations ef- forts are made to maintain, sweep, plow, sand, as required, all roads, public and private. While the goal is to clean all catch basins at least once annually to alleviate drainage problems, the a- forementioned restrictions, unfortunately, pre- clude accomplishing such a goal. The department is staffed with 17 men and one clerk. There are 2 foremen, 1 mechanic, 1 sign maker, 2 sweeper operators, 1 catch basin cleaner operator, 1 light truck driver, 3 heavy truck drivers, 2 heavy equipment operators and 4 laborers in addition to the elected Highway Surveyor. The department has been exceeding- ly fortunate in being augmented with 6 CETA employees; however, their continued presence as town employees cannot be assured. During 1977, maintenace, construction and reconstruction was accomplished as follows: Construction /Reconstruction 19 roads Traffic Signs 702 Signs Placed - 665 Posts installed Drainage (Catch Basins) 77 installed and 3080 ft. of drainage pipe placed. Traffic Painting 82 miles (striping) In 1977 one major item of equipment was pur- chased, a new truck with sander and plow. Clearing of ice and snow continues to tax the department to its fullest extent. Six sanders/plows are supplemented with bet- ween 20 and 30 contracted vehicles. In addition to Highway Department and contract equip- ment, equipment and personnel of the Sanita- tion Department are usually pressed into ser- vice. Finally, this department provides assistance to all other town departments and the Dennis-' Yarmouth Regional School District at con- siderable savings to the town. The cooperation received from all depart- ments, and the dedicated service of all Highway Department personnel is greatly appreciated. Respectfully submitted, LLOYD H. DAUPHINAIS Highway Surveyor 115 Report of the WATER DEPARTMENT The Board of Water Commissioners herewith submit its report for the Calendar year 1977. Present number active services 11,110 Services installed during 1977 343 Gallons pumped during Calendar 1977 962,041,000 Miles of Main added to system 1.93 Approximate miles of main - system 248.86 Present number of hydrants 1,406 Water mains, by size, installed during 1977 6 inch 8 inch 2,220 feet 7,990 feet 10,210 feet + 29 hydrants During calendar 1977, the Water Department or its agents installed 343 new service con- nections, 1.93 miles of new water main and 29 new hydrants. Total gallonage pumped for the year was 962,041,000 gallons, an increase of 6.46 per cent. The peak pumping day was July 19, 1977 with 7,304,000 pumped during a 24 hour period. Construction of three new gravel packed wells (Nos. 17, 18, 19) was completed during the summer of 1977 and contracts have been awarded or are in the process of being awarded for the construction of access roads, in- stallation of water mains and power . lines, construction of pumping stations and their equipment so that these wells may supply water to our system during 1978. The' Department's Test Well Program was continued during 1977 with several promising sites being investigated for use as wellfields. The 1978 Town Meeting will be asked to provide funds for the acquisition of these sites, for water supply purposes, subject to the approval of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts De- partment of Environmental Quality Engineering. Funds were applied for and received from the Economic Development Administration for the installation of water mains in the Hyannis Park area. Work was started in late 1977 and is ex- pected to be completed in early 1978. Funds for water main installation in conjunction with the Topics Project on Route 28 were appropriated by the 1977 Town Meeting and this work will start in the Spring of 1978. A portion of Route 28 from Camp Street West to Bayview Street will be reinforced ih conjunction with the State Highway Safety Improvement Project. The repainting of the West Yarmouth elevated tank and the removal of the Bass River Tank were completed during the last year. The department continued its preventive maintenance program throughout. 1977, check- ing all of the fire hydrants twice during the year. A maintenance program has been initiated for approximately 6,500 gate valves in our system. Considerable work has been done in clearing and brushing wellfield perimeters and setting property line bounds to re-establish the locations of our wellfields. This work was largely accomplished through the use of Comprehensive Employment Training Act (CETA) employees in cooperation with the Town's CETA Program. In closing the Board would like to take this opportunity to thank all of those involved in aiding the department to move forward with those projects which were of importance to the department and the town. All efforts, both in- dividually and collectively are greatly ap- preciated by the department. THOMAS E. KELLEY, Chairman FREDERICK J. THACHER ROGER G. EDWARDS, JR. Board of Water Commissioners Report of the BUILDING INSPECTOR A total of 703 building permits was issued and of these 324 were . for residential, 48 non- residential and 331 for pools, alterations and additions. This department has four full-time and one part-time employees 'to cover inspection of buildings, sign inspection, electrical inspec- tion, sealer of weights and measures, plumbing and gas inspection, agents for the Board of 116 Health, commercial and residential occupancy permits, zoning by-law enforcements, physical- ly handicapped code enforcement and the state inspection of schools, nursing homes, theatres and all other buildings used by the public. January 1st, 1978 will see an additional code come into being known as the Massachusetts State Energy Code, Article 22, of the State Building Code. All construction will be required to meet an energy code to conserve energy, and all new buildings and additions must be engineered so as to conserve the use of energy before plans can be accepted. All of the inspectors either carry state licenses or are certified for the positions they hold. Respectfully submitted, HOWARD SPURR Inspector of Buildings Report of the HOUSING AUTHORITY To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The Yarmouth Housing Authority received a grant to repaint all buildings. This will be ac- complished in April or May, 1978. Only one apartment was refurbished during the year. The State -funded Chapter 707 program now has 95 units rented, and the federal program, Section 8, has 96 units rented. Efforts are being made to obtain moderniza- tion funds to repair heating systems and ap- pliances in the Plaza. Also, the Housing Author- ity will make an effort to obtain funds to add three units for elderly occupancy. The Financial Statement as of December 1977: Including State aid: Expenses Respectfully submitted, EMMANUEL WENSLEY, Chairman KENNETH ALLEN, Vice -Chairman SPEAR T. HOLWAY, Treasurer RICHARD JOHNSON ANN DeLUZ G.R. KAUP, Executive Director $46,475.90 $43,382.20 $3,093.70 Report of the TOWN SURVEYOR To the Board of Selectmen and the citizens of the Town of Yarmouth: The year 1977 was devoted mainly to con- sideration of drainage problem areas by the Engineering Department. Captain's Village and Rolling Hills plans and specifications were drawn and contracts awarded. The Captain's Village project was completed and is functioning well and Rolling Hills is near completion. Other projects for contract awards include Collingwood Acres, Forest Road & Sierra Way, Brentway Drive, Pawkannawkut Road and South Shore Drive. Many "in house" drainage easement projects were also completed and several others are in the works. Thirteen roads were laid out for acceptance and construction; twenty four subdivision roads, or portions thereof, were accepted, mainly for drainage study purposes and four roads wereaccepted for reconstruction under department supervision. Inspections were made by the Engineering Department through all phases of construction, on all subdivision roads constructed in ac- cordance with Planning Board regulations and site plan reviews were numerous, on site as well as within the department. Signs, maps and plans were drawn for several town departments, boards and commissions and assessors' maps are completely updated with changes made on a daily basis. A new card file was established containing every road in the town with information regarding location, assessors' map number, length, whether paved or dirt, town way or private way and if a petition is on file for. town acceptances. Respectfully submitted, JOHN L. NEWTON Town Surveyor @otanical ELLEN WALLACE Grade 7 117 Report of the PARK DEPARTMENT To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: The winter of 1977 took a considerable toll of several beach areas in the Town. At Colonial Acres the footbridge was lifted and severely damaged. A large portion of the center section had to be reconstructed, and several pilings had to be replaced. Pilings also had to be replaced at Englewood Beach and at the Bass Hole. The boardwalk at the Bass Hole required extensive rebuilding all due to storm and ice damage. A boardwalk was placed at Bass River Beach to make the beach more easily accessible to those with handicaps. Some other improvements have been new roofs on some of the comfort stations, addi- tional paving in the Sea Gull Beach parking lot, paving of the parking lot at Sea View Beach and the installation of a chain link fence there. Gates were installed in the fences at Parker's River and Bass River Beaches. It was an extremely busy summer on all of our beaches putting unprecedented stress on all facets of the Park Department operations. The revenue from the three stickered beaches was $82,000 which was an increase of $15,000 over the previous year. The Park Commissioners have been working under a handicap for a good portion of the past year due to the resignations of members who had accepted employment off Cape or left for personal reasons. In spite of these problems, the Park Depart- ment has made every effort to meet the needs of the Community and to perform in the best in- terest of the Town of Yarmouth. Respectfully submitted, Park Commissioners PAUL KARRAS, Chairman KENNETH YAKOLA JEANETTE BEARSE JOHN BARTOLOMEO CYNTHIA COUGHLAN 18 Report of the TREE WARDEN To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of Yarmouth: The responsibilities of the tree department have remained relatively unchanged over the years except that the continued growth of the town gives us many more roads and areas to be covered. During the past year sixty-two shade and flowering trees were planted along the town roadways to replace many of the Elm and Pine trees that had been taken down. This department also did the planting of the trees along Route 6A in Yarmouthport. Mr. Robert Barr received permission from the State to plant certain varieties of shade trees along that highway to replace the many Elm trees that had to be removed. I'm sure the townspeople will appreciate his efforts for many years to come. Last January we were kept extremely busy with the winter storms. The high winds took down many trees along the roadways, which had to be cleaned up and many of the large trees had limbs torn from them; these were cut flush to the tree and the wounds painted. This department also cut back several cor- ners and intersections for better traffic visibility throughout the town. INSECT PEST CONTROL The Nantucket Pine Tip Moth appeared in cer- tain areas of the town again last year; however, do not feel it was as bad as in previous years. The spray program seems to be keeping it under control, and hopefully we can keep the existing Pines in a fairly healthy condition. This past year the Fall Webb Worm was found in several areas of the town. Many people call- ing to report this pest seemed to have it confus- ed with the Tent Caterpillar. The Tent Cater- pillar makes its appearance in May mostly in fruit trees such as Beach Plum and Wild Cherry trees; many of these were found on the south side of town and cut from the trees and dispos- ed of, The Fall Web Worms were found in trees throughout the town and cut from the trees in the early fall and disposed of. The Poison Ivy Spray program was carried on during the summer months in the beach and park areas and along the roadsides as needed throughout the town. This department still works with Mr. Kelliher, the State district supervisor of Pest Control, setting out moth traps throughout the town, and no new out -breaks of Gypsy Moths were found. DUTCH ELM During the past year thirty-two dead Elm trees had to be removed in the town. The trees had been sampled and specimens sent to the shadetree laboratories at the University of Massachusetts where they were tested and the results were then returned. The foliage spray- ing of the Elm trees took place during the sum- mer months in an effort to control the Elm Leaf Beetle. My thanks again to the Police and Highway departments and the citizens who have kept me informed of situations in the town that needed attention. Respectfully submitted, JON L. HOLMES Tree Warden and Moth Superintendent Report of the, CEMETERY DEPARTMENT TO THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN AND CITIZENS OF THE TOWN OF YARMOUTH: During 1977, the Yarmouth Cemetery Depart- ment sold fifty-seven cemetery lots receiving revenue of $7,450.00 from which $3,000.00 was deposited in the Perpetual Care Account. A total of 102 burials took place of which nine- ty percent were in Ancient Cemetery. At the time this report is being prepared, Pine Grove Cemetery in South Yarmouth and Wood- side Cemetery in West Yarmouth are closed, there being no grave sites available for pur- cfiase. Available grave sites in Ancient Cemetery will be depleted in the coming years. The new cemetery off Higgins Crowell Road is progressing to the point where seven acres are cleared, stumped and rough -graded, and through the help of the CETA workers, they are 119 now cutting wood on approximately another seven acres. Free wood is offered to the tax- payers of the town to cut at their own risk. The Commission's goal is to have a complete office facility and maintenance area in the new cemetery property being developed on Higgins Crowell Road. Gratitude and appreciation is extended to the Highway Department and the Sanitation Depart- ment for cooperation in the past year. Respectfully submitted, CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS GORDON CLARK JR., Chairman WILLIAM H. POOLE ALBERT WHITEHEAD JR. C" -C A -4 411 it KIMBERLY ANNE MARSH Grade 6 — Age 11 4 0/4 4 Report of the SANITARY LANDFILL To the HONORABLE BOARD of SELECTMEN and the CITIZENS of YARMOUTH: In April the fees charged for commercial dum- pings at the landfill was increased and our revenues jumped from $30,687.00 to $50,908.00 in 1977. Solid waste receipts in 1977 increased from 124,478 cubic yards to 159, 265 cubic yards. Septage pumping decreased from 6,423,500 gallons in 1976 to 5,616,000 gallons. The main reason for this being that manyplaces cor- rected their sewage systems rather than pay the higher disposal fees. The Conservation Commission constructed glass recycling bins in the landfill. Now we recycle newspaper, glass, aluminum and metals. All glass to be recycled should be Report of the sorted by three colors: clear, brown and green. All metal caps and rings must be removed. A traffic counter was purchased so that an ac- curate vehicle count could be taken; 200,971 vehicles passed through the gates of the disposal area during 1977. The landfill is open 362 days, closing only for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's. The Sanitation Department assisted other departments and commissions doing projects that saved the taxpayers $21,531. I also would like to thank all the other depart- ments that have assisted us this year. Respectfully submitted, PETER G. HOMER Superintendent CAPITAL BUDGET COMMITTEE. To the Honorable Board of. Selectmen and citizens of Yarmouth: The Capital Budget Committee began opera- tions late in 1977, with a committee totally restructured with new appointees. Because of a shortage of time, the committee could do little more than superficially review those depart- ment requests which were received and sum- marized for this report. That effort however, left the committee with definite impressions, most- ly of inadequacy, of the capital spending pro- grams of the town. If one were to quickly review past spending against past budgets, it would be apparent that there has been and is little correlation between actual capital expenditures and capital planning in some departments. The members of this committee are en- thusiastic about what we and department heads can do to quickly bring things to acceptable management levels. For the next budgeting year we will develop and employ more com- prehensive capital budgeting procedures. Beyond that, however, certain centralized ef- 120 forts are required of the town. For example a single purchasing authority would consolidate the purchasing of capital goods and services such as standard cars and trucks, so. as to in- crease buying power and decrease costs. Cen- tralized purchasing would quickly point out the need to develop necessary policy guidance for expenditures on such things as vehicle replace- ment and maintenance, which is typically every .three years in one department while it is every eight years in another department. We appreciate the cooperation received from department heads and look forward to working with them in the future toward the goal and assisting in stabilizing the tax rate. Following is the tabulated report of this committee. Respectfully submitted, I. CARLETON LUKE, Acting Chairman STANLEY RITTER RICHARD E. KEEFE PETER BUTT KEVIN BARRY JOHN B.

The time spent in this endeavor by Yarmouth Fire Department personnel was approximately 45 hours on a voluntary basis. The personnel of Rogers & Gray Insurance Company to cover the Town of Yarmouth alone was 7 hours. A dramatic interest has been sparked in our school children as a result of the time given for this Fire Prevention Campaign. The response of our local grocery stores and radio station WOCB gave the campaign a degree of flair that helped spark the interest of some of our older children in the elementary grades. With the steady increase of demands for service from the Fire Department additional manpower is a must. When the Rescue Service was taken over in April, 1973, we made 927 runs for the balance of the year plus 511 calls for fire, a total of 1438. For the year 1977 there were 678 fire calls and 1654 rescue runs, a total of 2332. There were 5 men per shift in 1973, and there are still 5 men per shift to handle this increase. Therefor, I am asking for additional personnel. Planning with the Capital Budget for a new station and equipment is of utmost importance to continue to give you the service you have the right to expect. This has been listed as a project with the Capital Budget Committee since 1972 and is long overdue. Within the next two years, we will have to replace pumpers that have been in service since 1950 and 1952. We have received the new ambulance voted at the last Town Meeting to replace a 1973 unit. Plans to replace a 1974 ambulance will have to be considered within the next two years. The Insurance Service office will be rating the FireDepartment and water system in March, 1976: The results of this survey will be made 125 public so that the need for changes in the department will be known. Very truly yours, JOHN H. CLEMENCE Chief of Department Report of the POLICE DEPARTMENT To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth. Submitted herewith is the report of the Police Department for the year 1977. The old adage of "a picture being worth a thousand words" is, in most cases, true. However, the "picture" of criminal activities in the Town of Yarmouth (or any town) is seldom seen with that degree of clarity. Percentages of increase or decrease, numbers of arrests or complaints, while giving us an idea of positive accomplishments of a police force does not really tell us what's happening. What's happening in Yarmouth, and in possibly every town on and off the. Cape, is an utter disregard for •the rights of others by a minority of persons with a penchant for crime. Breaking and entering, assault & battery, malicious destruction of property, larceny, are but a few crimes that are, being committed. against the citizen or his property. Breaks are . occurring in homes that are occupied where the • owner has stepped out for a brief period of . time. Vehicles are being stripped of valuable • equipment overnight. Assaults are being com- mitted on persons, occasionally. the, elderly,. for. , no apparent reason other than to satisfy. -.a whim. : These situations gives one pause to wonder what's become of our society? Has law .and order given way entirely' `to permis'siven'ess?, Wherein does the fault lie? The fault lies with the police for not bucking the system of justice in the local courts. With the courts themselves for condoning "deals" or plead bargaining to ease the load on the court. Again, with • the' courts for embracing ,the wrist -slapping techni- ques of dispensing justice and allowing' repeaters to consistently return to the' streets. And with the citizen, the silent majoritywho for too long have been contented with sitting on the sidelines watching the game and then engaging in Monday morning quarter backing. The citizen must make himself known. A strong bench can go a long way to assure the winning of the game. It can improve the per- formance of the first string by being vocal in their support. A citizen can be involved even though the coach may' not put them in the game. They, in fact, put themselves in the game by lending their voices to the effort. We ask that you do just that. Make noise. If you don't approve of what's happening, holler. If you do, let people know. Like the man says, "The Lord helps them that help. themselves." With your help, and His, we can be winners in this seemingly endless conflict.

During this year the committee has continually endeavored to expand on the school system's strengths and improve on its weaknesses in order to provide a system that will recognize and serve the educational goals of Dennis and Yarmouth. In the spring of this year, requests for bids were advertised for the construction and renovation high school project. •The.award was made to the lowest qualified bidder, the Hass Corporation, for an amount several hundred thousand less than the architect's estimate. 130 Rita Carlsen, Office Supervisor Mary Cue, Part-time Accounts Clerk Anne FitzGerald, Payroll Clerk Lillian Fregeau, Accounts Clerk Betty S.

While most of the major reconstruction took place during the summer vacation, work was in progress when school opened in Sep- tember. With student enrollment stabilizing in Yarmouth and slight growth occurring in Den- nis, it is the opinion of the school committee and superintendent, at this time, that aside from necessary maintenance and updating of existing facilities, the present buildings will serve the district's needs for the foreseeable future. Following the 1977 Annual Town Election, Mr. Ahern was reelected to a three-year term and Mrs. Hofman and Mr. Boudreau were elected to fill vacancies created by the retirement of Mr. Nelson and Mr. Hayes. On October 4, 1977, Mr. Connelly submitted his resignation from the committee. He was replaced, until the 1978 an- nual elections, by Dr. Leroy Benoit. Mr. Scott Nickerson was chosen by the High School Stu- dent Advisory Committee to continue as stu- dent representative as a non-voting member. The committee continued with the practice of engaging Arthur Anderson & Company to pro- vide a 1977 fiscal year independent certified audit of the district's financial records and pro- cedures. Their 'statements are reported in this annual report. As trustees of the Scholarship Fund, we have granted awards to deserving graduates in the amount of $3,760 while continuing to make disbursements on previously awarded scholar- ships. In addition, the committee acknowledges the generous scholarship grant received which established the Ann Castonguay Memorial Scholarship Fund. The committee is most appreciative of the professional administrative staff for their con- tinued efforts for improvement and deployment of management skills and ideas; and those in the professional teaching staff for being a visi- ble, integral, spirited, and innovative part of the development _process for new approaches to 131 programs. Enhancing and enriching to the school district, special recognition must be given to the active volunteers from the com- munity who participate in the schools as well as the encouraging efforts demonstrated this past year by the district and local Community School Advisory Councils. Finally, the committee is most appreciative to the voters of Dennis and Yarmouth for your con- tinued support to education. The committee urges your participation in our available ser- vices, whether attending our regular meetings, community and adult education programs, vol- unteer services, community councils, com- munity service projects, extra -curricular ac- tivities, or athletic events.

Ahern, Secretary Robert W. Saben, Jr., Treasurer William J. Bearse James McVey Russell N. Wilkins Bernard Boudreau Alice Hofmann Leroy Benoit REPORT OF JOSEPH E. KILLORY SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS It is with pleasure that I submit my third an- nual report on your public schools. Four years ago you made the important decision to place the responsibility for educating your children and youth under a single school committee rather than the three separate ones that ex- isted. The major factors involved in the decision were (1) the development of more unified and con- sistent educational programs, (2) the utilization of staff in a more efficient manner, and (3) the anticipation of increased financial assistance from the State. In my opinion, all three goals are being met in that ' (1) we have developed and are continuing to develop a series of district curricula and achievement tests and have a common system for reporting to parents. (2) we have established realistic and educa- tionally sound teacher pupil ratios and have eliminated duplicated supervisory staffs at an annual saving of $250,000. Three different col- lective bargaining agreements for teachers have been replaced with a single one. Previous- ly, each group of teachers had different salaries, benefits, and professional organiza- tions which discouraged the interchange of staff and, therefor, the sharing of ideas. Clearly, this did not serve the students' interests since they joined for their final four years at the regional high school. There is much intercom- munication now. (3) the shift from a high school to a K-12 region entitled the district to more state aid, specifically earmarked for regions. This has amounted to an additional $800,000 thus far and will continue at the rate of $350,000 to $500,000 additional each year, depending on the available funds in the state budget. As a high school region, we would have been eligible for 50% reimbursement for both the principal and interest expenditures for the high school addi- tion. As a K-12 region, we receive 60% which amounts to $500,000 over the life of the bond issue. K-12 regions also receive additional reimbursement for transportation expenses and this has amounted to at least an additional $200,000. The level of funding of this has been decreasing so that the additional amount may be less in the future. Whenever unification takes place, each party must relinquish some cherished practices and programs. I congratulate the staffs, and in par- ticular the principals, for the professional ap- proach to this, and I commend this and previous school committees for debating the issues as they affect the students and taxpayers, rather than the effect on the town from which the members come.

BATCHELDER, DIRECTOR OF INSTRUCTION If 1976 was the year of planning, 1977 was the year of implementing. The new social studies and science curricula, adopted in 1976, began in the schools; a Romance language/social studies/arts course started in the 6th grades; computer instruction using a real, rather than an imaginary computer, started in January and student participation grew prodigiously by the following September. Once any program is developed, the next step is "field testing." Such a process automatically takes place when instruction begins. On the basis of the first year of im- plementation, modification of all programs should and will occur, to adapt to realistic classroom problems. One adaptation currently under discussion is the selection of a basic text for middle school science and social studies classes. The study of the needs of the gifted student continues. Each school has a faculty committee charged with the responsibility of identifying students who have intellectual or artistic needs beyond those met by normal classroom instruc- tion. Several schools have started programs based on their analyses of individual student needs. 133 169 182 191 1 146 1 688 2 2 1 2,523 In the fall of 1977 the system initiated an in- service course on "Individualized Instruction" for faculty. Developed by an In -Service Commit- tee, the course is the first to be designed within the system and offered for graduate level cred- it, thorugh the cooperation of Emmanuel Col- lege. More such courses are being considered for the future. Academic priorities for development in 1978 are an improved writing skills program and the development of a regional curriculum for kin- dergarten children. Within Community Education, the Council has encouraged and promoted an ever-increasing variety of programs, not only for students but also for adults. In 1976-77, local councils of- fered 39 programs to 2,654 children and 56 adults. In 1977-78, 82 programs were presented to 3,539 students and 560 adults. In addition, the Regional Council sponsored programs in films, (French Film Series), drama ("God - spell"), volunteer programs and a Human Ser- vices Fair. Within the schools, through a newly- created ewlycreated Arts Committee, the Regional Council has brought to. 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th grade students two "Introdution to Opera" programs, theatre, and has been instrumental in pro- moting interest in art at the high school through displays in local banks of student art. More pro- grams of a similar nature are being planned for 1978. REPORT OF THOMAS M. LA GRASTA, COORDINATOR, SPECIAL EDUCATION SERVICES The special needs program has continued to progress in a positive manner during the past year. This has been due mainly to the support that has been provided by the school commit- tee, administration and teaching staff. Special needs programs have been expanded without substantial increases in cost as a result of the cooperative efforts among the entire school staff. In February 1977 the Massachusetts Depart- ment of Education conducted an on-site audit of the special needs program. The purpose of this particular audit was to determine how effective the district was in implementing Chapter 766, the state law that mandates equal educational opportunity for students with special needs. The audit team consisted of representatives from the Department of Education and from other school systems. The audit team spent three days visiting programs and interviewing staff and parents. I am pleased to announce that the final report submitted by the audit team was very favorable, and, in fact, commended the district for its special needs programs. The audit team was impressed by the cooperative atmosphere that existed among the staff on behalf of students with special needs, the quality of individual special needs programs, and the cost effective manner in which programs were implemented throughout the district. Improved educational opportunities have been realized for students with special needs. The district was worked with the Cape Cod Col- laborative and Operation Head Start to provide comprehensive and beneficial school ex- periences for pre-school children. The Cape Cod Regional Technical High School has ex- panded their vocational programs for adoles- cent students with special needs. The Cape Cod Mental Health Clinic continued to improve upon providing psychological and counselling services to students and parents. Greater efforts have been undertaken within the district to educate special needs students within the regular classroom whenever it is possible and beneficial to all students. The special needs staff have worked closely with classroom teachers, providing them with sug- gestions, materials and, in some instances, teaching within the regular classroom on a 134 team -teaching basis. In-service programs for the staff have been implemented with graduate level course being given by local colleges and universities. The District In-service Committee has developed a comprehensive teacher train- ing program which includes the education of students with special needs. As we look to the future, we do so with en- thusiasm. There will be increased financial assistance from the federal government for special needs programs. Overall, these monies will serve to stabilize the costs of implementing Chapter 766 for the district and allow for pro- gram expansion whenever necessary. We will work to improve upon the special needs pro- grams that are being provided at present and continue to promote the positive atmosphere that exists for students with special needs. REPORT OF DR. THERESEJ. D'ABRE, COMMUNICATIVE ARTS SUPERVISOR The Communicative Arts Department con- tinues its emphasis on reading and writing skills instruction at the elementary level. Tests to determine pupil proficiency in reading and spelling have been developed. These tests, combined with previously designed language arts tests, give teachers and administrators the opportunity to periodically review pupil pro- gress in basic communicative arts skills. Enriching literary experiences are now being provided for elementary students through a literature strand which was developed and is being implemented by a committee of teachers representing each elementary school. Vocabulary acquisition is emphasized at all levels and a specific vocabulary program has been initiated at the high school. A system providing for the coordination of curriculum content from the middle schools to the high school has been established. Teachers meet, under the direction of the English Department Chairperson and the Com- municative Arts Coordinator, to exchange ideas and develop complimentary strategies for the now coordinated curriculum. Workshops and conferences for teachers at all grade levels have been held regularly through the year. The faculty has received in- formation on curriculum content, on teaching strategies, and has reviewed current instruc- tional material. The Communicative Arts Department responds to the needs of children who receive auxiliary services by providing consultant ser- vices to Special Needs and Title I teachers and by helping to provide a smooth transition be- tween special reading programs and regular classroom activities. This Department has also 'been involved in cooperative ventures with library personnel and the Volunteer and Arts sub -committees of the Community Education Council. REPORT OF DANIEL W. NICHOLSON, PRINCIPAL DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL The year 1977 was a year of continued change in the High School. That change was reflected in the initial months of renovation and construction of the new addition, a revision of academic expectations and discipline policies, and the decision to review the administrative direction of the school. While this construction, like most, is somewhat behind schedule, it is still possible to attain our most immediate goal - the return to a single school session in September. Although the construction project will be far from complete, the largest classroom area will hopefully be available early in the fall. This will allow the school to return to a normal day after many years of adjustment of learning and life styles by students, parents, and faculty. In July I assumed the position of Principal of Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School. At the time I saw the role as both challenging and demanding. After six months, I find that opinion unchanged. Much emphasis has been placed on several areas. A review and revision of the student discipline code was made and put into effect immediately. The increased demand for improv- ed behavior on the part of students was obvious and necessary. School spirit, academic achievement, and teacher morale were found to be generally low. The former is being met by real administrative consideration of student needs and requests. The upgrading of academic achievement will come about through curriculum change, in- creased demands on student effort, and an 135 honest and active program of teacher evalua- tion. It has been my experience that the problem of teacher morale is directly related to community and administrative concern for school discipline, student achievement, and an understanding of the many problems facing public schools today. As these problems are ' faced and met with some success, the question of morale will subside. Summarily, the educational objectives for most people in both communities are the same. Their attainment, however, relies upon consis- tent effort and commitment on a daily basis as opposed to a simple annual review. One of my personal goals as Principal will be to remind not only myself, but all involved, that education of children leaves little room for procrastination and petty bickering. It is my intention to assure the general public that the students and teachers at the High School are involved, per- forming, and accountable. CLERICAL STAFF Alice L. Chaisson Mary H.

Through the beneficence of donors since graduation and gifts from prior years, it has been possible for the Trustees to make disbursements to deserving graduates in the amount of $4,850.00. Additionally, at awards Night in 1976, the valedictorian, and salutatorian and the recipient of the Ann Castonguay Memorial Award received checks totaling $1,750.00 It is with a deep sense of gratitude that we acknowledge the donations of the Yarmouth Trust Commissioners, the memorial gifts in behalf of William P. Frost, Howard Barnes Munroe, - Peter Maxtone-Graham and Ann Castonguay, as well as others presented throughout the years. More recently, the Trustees have been made aware of another scholarship award to be established from funds provided through the Last Will and Testament of Vira F. Merrill. We look forward each year to the privilege of recognizing the scholastic achievements of members of the graduating class. Without the continued support of kind benefactors, this pleasurable aspect of Committee responsibility would be impossible. Report of the MATTAC H E E S E MIDDLE SCHOOL GARY A. GETCHELL, PRINCIPAL The Mattacheese Middle School continually strives, through the individualizing of schedules, curricular materials, and ap- proaches to meet the intellectual, physical, and societal needs of its student body. The October 1st enrollment figure of 836 represents a decrease of 30 pupils from that of the previous year. Mattacheese pupils are assigned to teams of teachers forming six schools -within -a school...two each in grades six, seven, and eight. Within each of the six "schools" youngsters have the same reading, English, mathematics, social studies and science teachers. Seventh and eighth graders share the services of French and Spanish teachers. A program of Romance languages is available for pupils in the sixth grade who have demonstrated superior skills in the com- municative arts area in prior years. Pupils meet with each academic teacher once daily. Related arts teachers meet with pupils for double periods daily. Through the course of one week a student receives two double periods of physical education, one double period of art or crafts (1/2 year each), one double period of industrial arts, industrial design, home economics -foods, or home economics- clothings ('/4 year each), plus a single period of music and reading enrichment or health. Activity periods on Tuesdays and Thursdays provide for students to participate in in- termediate or advanced band, chorus, televi- sion production, gymnastic development, prin- ting, crafts, and the like as well as receive help in academic areas or have study time. After school . activities include dramatics, cheerleading, and special interest class as well *,as intramural and interscholastic tennis, soc- 'cer, field hockey, flag football, football, basket- ball, gymnastics, softball, baseball and track <and field. -The metamorphosis of one parking lot ,into 4 double tennis courts enabled us to have a 300% use in the number of pupils participating 139 in our intramural and interscholastic fall tennis program. Even more pupils are expected when it resumes in the spring. Other improvements in the school include: A soundproof ceiling in the cafeteria, a new roof covering, and refurbished athletic fields. A Community Advisory Council was formed in the fall of 1977 and is currently increasing in size and responsibility. Meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at the school from 7:30 P.M. until 9:30 P.M. and in- clude speakers and pupil presentations. All are invited to attend. Although we feel the school does provide for each pupil an opportunity to grow in all areas, it is not our intent to remain static. In our quest to achieve as close to a Utopian situation as is possible, we are, even now, devising ways to individualize our program and approaches fur- ther for the 1978-79 school year. Report of the JOHN SIMPKINS SCHOOL GEORGE A. CROSS, PRINCIPAL It is with pleasure that I submit this yearly report as Principal of John Simpkins School. The education of children presents itself with a variety of experiences in learning. This year with the many facets of construction and technical work performed in our building, education has taken on a new dimension. The physical plant now shows exciting new colors. modern lighting units, expanded classrooms and new acoustical ceilings. The cafeteria has returned to a self-contained program with a new appearance and appeal. The exterior site work saw the elimination of traffic behind the building and the development of a parking busport that provides safe unloading and loading of buses. The money appropriated for the renovation has brought a facility up to modern standards and given longevity to an ex- cellent school. The educational goal that was seen as our main objective this year was to provide alter- natives in grouping and environment to meet the needs of • all students. This goal sees heterogeneous groups in a variety of settings: self-containted teams, semi -departmentalized teams and mutil-disciplinary large instructional teams. The curriculum was further expanded to in- clude the implementation of •a new Social Studies Program and the development of a new reporting system with four terms and man- dator parent conferences. Throughout the year teachers and coordinators have met to refine and review programs to meet the needs of our learning process and ever-changing world. Our Community Schools Advisory Council, with the Coordinators,Ellen O'Connell and John Kelly, have presented a program that exposed children to areas of special interest and lifetime skills that have them baking, creating crafts, bowling, skating, practicing first aid and swim- ming. The programs expanding includes en- richment field trips on Saturday to museums and cultural events which give both parents and child the opportunity to share and grow together. Report of the The National Environmental Education Col- laborative in Truro provided an overnight week- long Environmental Education Expei °ence for over 450 district students. The program main- tains its own facility with full time director and boasts one of the best equipped marine sci- ence classrooms available. The knowledge gained from this experience creates an awareness and feeling that makes Cape Cod more meaningful. With the update of our school and the unlimited potential of the students that occupy the classes, the future holds limitless horizons that will be challenged by the learning that has taken place within. A school needs the support of all involved. I thank the teachers, staff and countless com- munity helpers for their continued support and guests for excellence as the future is made from this beginning. MARGUERITE SMALL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHARLES T. ORLOFF, PRINCIPAL It is with pleasure that I submit the annual report of the Marguerite E. Small Elementary School. The school is in part,a business and in a businesslike way we file our reports and ac- count for our expenditures. Education, however, is not a commodity and is more than a business. It is a human enter- prise designed to promote the happiness, well- being and prosperity of all children. Education is that which remains after everything that was taught has been forgotten. It results from the at- titudes and feelings that are found in genuine personal relationships. It can happen only in an environment where adequacy is consistently reinforced. The development of a positive self -regard and a strong ego requires an atmosphere where there is continued evidence of success. This process begins long before a youngster enters school and to this end the Regional School District has established the Partners In Educa- tion Project. The project is designed to serve the parents of pre-school children in 'the 140 district. Through a series of workshops and neighborhood gathering, the project hopes to insure meaningful communication between school and home and strengthen the parent's sense of competence and self-worth as they in- teract with their children. The results of this project should yield rich dividends for parents, children and the school. Education and the process of learning are far too complex for educators to make absolute guarantees. It is clear, however, that a positive, creative pre-school experience, followed by a well -structured kindergarten readiness pro- gram can go a long way to helping a child make the most of his potential. This continues to be a priority at the Small School. All youngsters are carefully screened during the first week of school. This process includes an informal appraisal of learning efficiency, a visual and hearing test and a separate parent in- terview. This provides the first step in an early recognition and intervention program aimed at preventing later school failure. Learning ex- periences can be altered to match individual learning styles and supportive help is available from two learning disabilities teachers, a Title I oral language teacher and a home/school counselor. Every effort is made to enlist the full motivation and energies of our students from the first moments of their formal schooling. We seem to be making progress in this area. The business of education is not cheap. But the product is priceless. A friend and colleague of mine once said, "There is no such thing as hold our own. We either advance, or we fall behind. And the community and its schools are so closely bound that both fall or rise together." Report of the SOUTH YARMOUTH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL It is a pleasure to submit my report as Prin- cipal of the South Yarmouth Elementary School. At South Yarmouth, housing: Kindergarten Grade One Grade Two we are presently 89 128 135 352 Pupils We are now able to meet the needs of most children through traditional self-contained classrooms, transitional first grade, multi-age groups and team -teaching — all taking place in the same building. We also have Special Needs personnel for children requiring extra attention in diverse areas. This year John Kelly has replaced Ellen M. O'Connell as our Community School Coor- dinator. I intend to work very closely with Mr. Kelly in continuing those programs started by Mrs. O'Connell and developing new programs that the community desires. In the fall, we welcomed Mrs. Susan O'Connell and Mrs. Claire Rodrigues to our building and are happy to note the return of Mrs. Bonnie Carter. Under the direction of Peter Regan, a very successful Title I Summer Program was held at South Yarmouth Elementary School. During the school year, a Title I teacher works in the 141 regular classroom with the children. In this way, we can evaluate short and long-range progress and give the children continuous help year- round. Mrs. Nancy Hathaway is heading a new project called PEP, Partners in Education Project. The basic goal of this program is to increase communciation between the schools and the parents of pre-school children as a means of increasing parent involvement and child success in the schools. The program is two -fold. First, the .project director recruits and trains neighborhood coordinators who facilitate communication between parent and school. Using neighborhood gatherings as a beginning, the project staff provides information that will help parents understand the important roles they play in the process of their children's development and enhance their ability to create a rich learning environment in the home. The second aspect of the program gives parents and children the opportunity to meet with educational specialists and resource people within the school environment and explore, make and_ use materials that will help parents become more effective teachers of their own children. Informal and standardized testing has taken place during the year. The Boehm Test of Basic Concepts is given in, October and April to the kindergarten. The Metropolitan Readiness Test is given to the kindergarten in May. The Initial Survey Test is given to the first grade in Sep- tember. The S.R.A. Achievement Series is - given in May to the First and Second grades. The scores and an explanation of these tests are available from your child's teacher. I have been very pleased with our pre- screening for kindergarten. The children are registered in April and. interviewed by their prospective teacher in May. In September we do an informal appraisal. of each child, .a visual and hearing test and ob- serve each child in small group activity. We also have our physical education teacher present to test the children in basic skills. The continuous support and interest of the South Yarmouth Parents' Council has been a great help to the schools. They have been in- volved in Open House, Parent-Teacher Evening meetings, Homeroom Mothers, volunteers, the Scrimshaw II, which . is the childrens' newspaper, an information booklet, and many more very useful activities. I would ask other parents to join and support this group. This year, routine maintenance took place on and within the building. As the building grows older, it will of course, require more extensive maintenance. I would like to thank the teaching staff and the secretarial, cafeteria and custodial staffs who, with the assistance of countless community helpers, have made this a successful year for our children. They create the happy atmos- phere that makes learning enjoyable at South Yarmouth Elementary School. Report of the NATHANIEL H. WIXON MIDDLE SCHOOL WILLIAM F. GRIFFITH, PRINCIPAL The year 1977 was marked by another major accomplishment at the Nathaniel H. Wixon Mid- dle School. On September 7, the entire fifth grade, 162 students, moved from the Ezra H. Baker School into the middle school, bringing our .opening day attendance to 608 students. Earlier in the summer, walls were taken down, doors replaced, and partitions installed in the school library area. One fifth grade team was located in the renovated sewing room. The school library was relocated in the rooms formerly used as kindergarten classrooms, making the library more functional because of its proximity to more academic classroom areas. Its new site has also permitted us to develop a television studio where the taping of student productions will take place. The vocal music program, placed in the craft shop, has a more suitable location with redecoration and new carpeting. The Adolescent Training Pro- gram continues to grow in the former receiv- ing room which has been attractively renovated and equipped. Another eighth grade class trip to Washing- ton, D.C. was most successful. The students and parents involved had an enjoyable educa- tional and social experience. The trip culminated many months of hard work by students, teachers and parents. The Wixon Community School Program, under the direction of Mr. Brian Kelly, con- tinues to offer a variety of programs not available at the school. A recreational skating 142 program was held in November and December at the Cape Cod Coliseum with approximately 115 students participating in the program. Parent participation in managing this large group made it an enjoyable and healthful activi- ty. Early in the school year, the Wixon Special ,Needs Program was audited by.the Massachu- setts Department of Education. We are pleased that the program received exemplary commen- dations for the proper implementation of Chapter 766. Under the provisions of the law, the Massachusetts Department of Education is required to monitor compliance of local school systems with the law. The return to heterogeneous grouping in many of our academic classes has produced the anticipated social effect and an equalization of class size. Enrichment programs, e.g. algebra, sixth grade romance language, and our SAIL Program continue to grow. A commit- tee has been formed, and steps are being taken, to formulate a Talented -Gifted Student Program. The instrumental music and choral programs presently involve nearly 40 percent of the school population. This report only briefly touches upon the dynamic programs in operation at the Nathaniel H. Wixon Middle School. A more in-depth knowledge of the school can be had through a personal visit on the part of any interested per- son. This can be arranged by contacting the school. Report of the EZRA H. BAKER SCHOOL WALTER S. MORLEY, PRINCIPAL The transfer of the fifth grade to the Nathaniel H. Wixon School was accomplished without in- cident, and any loss we might have felt at' its leaving was assuaged by the return to th`i"s school of the kindergarten. Three teaching sta- tions were arranged in the space which was oc= cupied by two classes before the kindergarten moved to the Wixon School five years ago, 'arid, because it now became possible to serve just one grade during each lunch'period, a portion of the cafeteria- was set off 'as- a kindergarten playroom. For the present, at least, this space assignment is adequate. The construction of partitions in the girls locker room and Room A and the relocation and construction of partitions in Room B improved old institutional areas and provided a new room for speech therapy. Carpeting these rooms has made them quieter and more comfortable, far better places for teaching and learning. The departure of grade five made possible the addition of a sixth class in grade three (which at this time is the largest class in the school with 165 pupils), an adjustment which was both timely and imperative. Other classes were reassigned to the vacated classrooms, and again, all rooms in the school are fully utiliz- ed, with vocal music classes still meeting in the lobby of the auditorium. With the completion of the kitchen annex con- taining a walk-in freezer and cooler, the food storage capacity of the cafeteria has been greatly improved. Not only will these facilities enhance the quality of the school lunch pro- gram, but with the installation of a generator, they will also expand the school's ability to pro- vide the townspeople with adequate shelter during times of emergency. This is an appropriate time to express public- ly my gratitude to Chief Pasquale Santamauro of the Dennis Police Department and Chief Robert Hersey Of the Dennis Fire Department for their assistance in the safety education of our children. Besides traffic direction at our Route 28 crossing, the Police Department, through Patrolman Sumner Campbell, has provided classroom instruction in school bus safety, Halloween safety, ice safety, and bicycle safe- ty, programs of eminent importance to the well- being of our pupils. The Fire Department gives valuable assistance in the planning of escape pro- cedures and supervision of fire drills. In addi- tion, the fire safety instructional program, plan- ned and conducted by Lt. Richard Thomas, is well designed to acquaint each child with fire hazards in the home and methods for their cor- rection. The cardio -pulmonary resuscitation course for teachers., taken by a majority of the faculty, is another service of the Fire Depart- rn,ent for which we are grateful. r,ln compliance with the requirements of Chapter 622, household arts and industrial arts 143 classes have been made coeducational. Each fourth grade pupil is scheduled for each subject for a semester, changing from one to the other at mid -year. The boys and girls have enjoyed their new experiences, and we regret that the two subjects will be discontinued at the end of the 1977-78 school year. Our Community Education Program, directed by Lawrence C. MacArthur, Coordinator, has enjoyed continued success, especially in the area of afternoon activities for children. The of- ferings of this program have been increased to include pottery, paper craft, gymnastics, creative dance, puppetry, recycle crafts, weav- ing, and music. Special Needs, Title I, and regular instruc- tional programs are competently carried out by a faculty of concerned and industrious teachers. I believe that I express the gratitude of the parents of our pupils when I thank the teachers for their loyalty and service. And than you, Mr. Killory, for another year of help in dealing with educational problems of wide-ranging diversity and remarkable com- plexity. Report of the CAPE COD REGIONAL TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL On January 1, 1977 Cape Cod Tech was well into the second year of operation. The majority of our incoming students this year were freshmen and it was gratifying to see how much smoother the programs were running due to the fact that we had students that had been with us at least a year. Our academic classroom area had taken on a new look due to the installation of some walls by the carpentry department. The Program Review Sub -committee, chaired. by Warren Seyfert of Wellfleet, worked very diligently with Tim Carroll, Assistant Superintendent -Director, in the development of a pilot adult education program during the Spr- ing of.1977. It started with five programs—Air Conditioning and Refrigeration, Horticulture, Welding, Auto Body, and Plumbing. I am happy to report that the attendance at these programs was over ninety-five per cent. The committee charged $1.00 per hour for these programs and we honestly feel that everybody benefits under this program,—the taxpayers and the students that participate in the program. The adult education program was expanded five -fold this fall, and it is anticipated that we will increase it probably by fifteen programs for the Spring of 1978. It is gratifying to members of the commit- tee to see so many adults taking advantage of the facilities at Cape Cod Tech. An event that culminated during the month of March occupied much of the Superintendent - Director's time, along with that of the Negotiating Sub-committee,—this was a negotiated three-year contract with teachers, administrators, para -professionals cleri- cal/secretarial personnel, and service employees. It is the feeling of the committee that the contract negotiated was fair for all par- ties and the three year term will give us an op- portunity to spend all of our time doing the things that we are supposed to do,—that being the education of our student body. On May 6th a very successful Trade Fair was held in the Mall here at Cape Cod Tech in which at least 3,000 adults and visitors spent the greater part of the day in viewing projects designed and created by Cape Tech students. It was a most rewarding event. We thank the stu- dents, staff and citizens who came to our first Trade Fair. It was so successful that we plan to make it an annual affair. May 19th we had a successful Advisory Com- mittee banquet in which the committee honored the members of the Advisory Committees that had worked so hard in the development of the programs at Cape Cod Tech. An activity that I am sure everyone observed if they drove by the building was the installation of an underground irrigation system by the Agricultural students at Cape Cod Tech. I would like to publicly thank the Agricultural Advisory committee and the following companies: Toro Irrigation Company, represented by Clapper Company of Newton, Mass. Royal Coach Irrigation, represented by I & E Supply of Connecticut. Johns Mansville Agri -Turf Div. (Buckner) represented by White Turf Engineering Com- pany, Winchendon, Mass. L. R. Nelson Corporation, represented by Larchmont Engineering, Lexington, Mass. .who 144 donated irrigation equipment in the aggregate amount of $16,000. so that our agricultural students would have the benefit of installing an underground irrigation system and also of maintaining that system. It was an excellent ex- ample of how industry and vocational schools work hand in hand to provide optimum educa- tion for our students today and their employers tomorrow. During the summer months one thing that proved to be very successful this year was the tennis courts operated by two of our staff members. A nominal fee was charged and I think many citizens of our eleven towns en- joyed the tennis facilities at Cape Cod Tech due to the fact that they were able to call for an ap- pointment. In late Spring, R. Arthur Williams; one of the original members of the committee, and chair- man for the past four years, chose not to be reappointed to his position as a representative from the Town of Barnstable. His impact on Cape Cod Tech during the development and construction period was substantial and he will be sorely missed by students, committee members and many friends. Mr. James H. Quirk from Yarmouth was elected as the new chair- man of the Cape Cod Tech committee. There were two other changes in our School Committee membership during the year: Thomas Galligan from Eastham was replaced by Dr. E. E. Leuallan; David Colburn from Pro- vincetown was replaced by Hilary Bamford. The third year opened on September 7th with another maximum enrollment of 960 students and this year for the first time all incoming freshmen went directly to the department of their first choice. We again want to thank the people from the R.S.V.P. program here on Cape Cod and also C.E.T.A. for the cooperation we have received from them during this calendar year. We wish to emphasize"that we are here to serve the needs of all of the people in our eleven towns, and if you have any questions our Superintendent - Director, Wilfred H. Learned, Jr., will be very glad to answer any questions you may have regarding our programs. He may be reached by calling either 432-4500 or 771-2600. JAMES H. QUIRK, JR., Chairman CAPE COD REGIONAL TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT COMMITTEE Report of the YARMOUTH PORT LIBRARY To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: It gives me great pleasure to submit the following report for the year 1977: STATISTICS Periods Open Attendance 151 6,906 52 733 52 828 51 1,117 Circulation 22,202 2,511 2,732 3,968 31,413 317 152 Afternoons Evenings Friday mornings Saturday mornings Total circulation Eastern Regional Records Grand Total 31,882 306 9,584 ACCESSIONS AND LOANS Gift Purchase Yarmouth Total Depository 786 1,332 161 385 Short -time loans from Boston and Plymouth Total 309 1,641 The December 9th 1976 plan, presented by Mr. George Plugge, Architect, of internal con- struction in thedwelling area in order to provide book space for approximately four years was completed in the late Spring of 1977. This add- ed space has been a blessing! Our sincere thanks to Mr. Plugge for his generosity and to Mr. William Sherman for completing the work on time. The microfilm reader is much in demand. The Wall Street Journal, a gift from Mrs. Edgar Taylor, the Yarmouth Register and the Cape Cod Oracle are all greatly appreciated. Bor- rowers enjoy reading these papers in the plea- sant John Simpkins Room. The Friday morning coffee hours have become an "institution" and are•well attended regardless of what kind of weather we have on that day. We are grateful to the many who have contributed baked goods, money and coffee for this hour. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Donlin again deserve our most sincere thanks for furnishing most of the coffee used as well as food. The children enjoyed two special programs in 1977. In April Mrs. Wyeth and her puppets and in December one of the Community College 145 students was Santa's Helper who greeted the children, took their orders and presented them with candy. The film showing continues each Saturday morning to an audience of delightful, well-behaved children. Mr. Thomas Donlin, President of the Friends. organization, and his capable staff have served extremely well and presented interesting pro- grams on each third Tuesday of the month. We are deeply grateful to the Brons Music Company of Hyannis for lending us one of its expensive organs on a stormy night in early December for our annual Christmas Wassail party. We are mindful that few would be so very generous. Miss Sweeney played the organ making the start of the Christmas Holidays merry and inspiring. We thank Miss Sweeney! National Library Week, as in previo" is years, opened with a delightful tea and art exhibit. Various other exhibits were shown during the week and a Building Fund benefit coffee hour with Mrs. Thomas Donlin, Chairman, was very successful, both socially and financially. The annual Summer Fair was sponsored by the Trustees most ably assisted by members of the Friends. We thank Mrs. Edwin Lehrmann and Mrs. Conrad Ruppert who gave so much of their time before the sale and the day of the sale. Many others gave and helped. The Fair was a success due to the co-operative help of many. People contribute weekly by depositing money in the Building Fund cans. We are a long way from $80,000—our goal—but each dollar helps and we appreciate these contributions. We salute the members of the Yarmouth Garden Club for their gifts of plants and floral arrangements. These gifts add cheer for bor- rowers and employees. To the members of the Board of Trustees, to Mrs. Arthur Smith and Miss Shirley Lyons, our valued assistants, to Frank Finn, who faithfully and cheerfully delivers books and films from the Depository and Falmouth, to the borrowers, members of the Friends, Donors, the Select- men, members of the Finance Committee and to the Voters we extend our grateful apprecia- tion for their loyal support. Our fervent hope is that 1978 will be the very best year, in every way, at your Library in Yar- mouth Port. Respectfully submitted, MARTHA U. WHITE, Librarian Yarmouth Library Association Report of the SOUTH YARMOUTH LIBRARY To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: I am pleased to submit the annual report of the South Yarmouth Library for 1977: Book inventory as of December 31, 1977: 17,011 volumes Circulation: Adult 49,167 Juvenile 10,357 Periodicals 1,268 Records 463 Pictures 60 61,315 This represents an increase of 3,372 over last year. Number of days open: 301 It has been a very busy year at the library as we prepare to enlarge our building with the con- struction of the Ann Maxtone-Graham wing ear- ly in 1978. As our borrowers can well attest, our shelves are overflowing and we are badly in need of more space. The Friends of the South Yarmouth Library have been extremely active in raising funds for the wing with a very successful house tour in June, an auction in August and several book sales. Our pre-school story hour, conducted by Mrs. Rachel Stowe, has been expanded to every Tuesday at 1:00 and continues to be enormous- ly popular. At Halloween, we had a ghost story hour for the older children at which Mr. Joseph Yessirets of the John Simpkins school did his best to scare over 80 of his enthusiastic fans. We continue to supply the Windsor Nursing Home with large print books and films. We rely on the Yarmouthport Depository to augment our collection with records and books and on the Eastern Regional Library System to fill requests for books we do not own. We now have a large staff of very willing and able volunteers who have contributed a great deal to the efficient operation and friendly at- mosphere of our library. Our heartfelt thanks to Mrs. Marie Bowman, Miss Crystelle Craig, Mrs. 146 Marjorie Crandall, Mrs. Anne Erickson, Mrs. Gwen Kaiser, Mrs. Anne Meehan, Mrs. Catherine Simons, and Mrs. Elisabeth Sykes. In addition to our volunteers we are also grateful to Betty Keary who takes care of our gardens, to the Garden Club of Yarmouth for their lovely floral arrangements and gift books, to the Lions Club for their generous contribu- tion for the purchase of large print books and to our Board of Directors and Building Committee members for all their time and support. But most of all, the staff, Jean. Bingham, Rachel Stowe, Sandra Rogers and I, are grateful to our borrowers for their continuing interest and support. They make our task very pleasant to perform. Respectfully submitted, NANCY S. STEWART Librarian Report of the WEST YARMOUTH LIBRARY To the Board of Selectmen of the Town of Yar- mouth: We are happy to submit our annual report for the year 1977.

We issued 817 new cards bringing our total registration to 3332. Our circulation continues to rise with a five percent increase over last year. We are happy to report that all of our non- fic- tion is now weeded and catalogued and we have begun adding materials in those areas needing updating and supplementing. Due to rising book costs, once again the Boston Regional Library System has proven to be an invaluable help to us both for borrowing books and handling interlibrary loan requests. We also attended many of their workshops and meetings, which offered interesting and helpful programs. This year has seen a breakthrough in com- munications between the school and town libra- ries with two meetings held recently. They have enabled us to meet personally, become familiar with each other's collections, discuss common problems and most important, become aware of course offerings and projects so we may be prepared to provide students with needed materials. Our pre-school storytime is held on Thursday afternoons and over the years it has been grati- fying to see many of our little graduates be- come regular library -goers. This year we also Report of AUDIT welcomed Several• area nursery schools, Scout and Campfire groups fora tour of the library and stories. We are fortunate in having capable and reliable volunteers who help in many areas. We wish to thank them for the time given to the library, especially Ann Koss and Barbara Krom- berg. The handicrafts of Josephine Henderson, Marie Lee and Louise Lawson, and book dona-- tions have added needed funds to our treasury. We wish to thank the Bass River Savings Bank for the use of their window to set up book displays and the Yarmouth Garden Club for the many beautiful floral arrangements given us throughout the year. We would also like to thank Louise Lawson who has given much time in maintaining our fine record collection. Our Board of Trustees and its committees, particularly the budget, nominating and book committees have been most helpful in offering advice and suggestions and we wish to thank them all for their assistance and cooperation. Our able and reliable staff have done their ut- most to serve the townspeople competently and cheerfully and we wish to thank Edith Cavander and Lee Wetjen for all their efforts. Respectfully submitted, LORRAINE LOUGHLIN Librarian ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO. BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS To the School Committee of the • Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District: We have examined the financial statements of the DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT as of June 30, 1977, and for the fiscal year then ended, and have issued our report, thereon dated August 12, 1977, in which our opinion is qualified with respect to the failure to provide for the costs of employee pen- sion plans accruing in excess of the amounts currectly paid. Our examination was made in ac- cordance with generally accepted auditing 147 standards and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. In connection with the examination referred to above, we have also examined the accompa- nying Reconciliation of Treasurer's Cash as of, and for the fiscal year ended, June 30, 1977. Our examination included (1) confirmation of balances with the respective banks, 12) tests of the reconciliations from bank to book cash balances, and (3) such other auditing pro- cedures as we considered necessary in the cir- cumstances. In our opinion, the Reconciliation of Treasurer's Cash presents fairly, when read in conjunction with the related financial statements, the financial information required to be set forth therein, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ap- plied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS To the School Committee of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District: We have examined the statement of assets and liabilities of the DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT (a not-for-profit school district organized under the laws of Massachusetts) as of June 30, 1977, and the related statements of changes in fund balances, consolidated revenues and expen- ditures of operating funds and surplus revenues, appropriations and expenditures for the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standrads, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. As is the practice with many school districts and municipalities in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the School District has not maintained historical cost records of its fixed assets and, accordingly, a statement of general fixed assets is not included in the accompany- ing financial statements. The School District follows accounting policies prescribed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts which vary in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles. The most significant difference relates to the use of the cash basis method for recording pen- sion expenses for employees. In our opinion, pension costs should be determined by ac- tuarial methods instead of the cash or pay-as- you-go basis as described in Note 5 to the ac- v JACKIE RICHARD Grade 6 — Age 12 companying finance+al statements. Information is not available to quantify the cumulative liabili- ty for pension benefits which would be reflected in the statement of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 1977, had the School District followed the actuarial method of ac- counting for pension costs. The School District also records sick leave benefits on a cash basis. While we believe that such sick leave benefits should be recorded as vested, the method followed by the School District is in accordance with generally ac- cepted accounting principles as prescribed by the AICPA audit guide for governmental units. The sick leave benefits not provided as vested in the year ended June 30, 1977, are estimated at approximately $9,000. Accumulated sick leave benefits as of June 30, 1977, not reflected on the statement of assets and liabilities, ap- proximated $123,000. In our opinion, except for the effect of not providing for pension costs on an actuarial basis, the accompanying financial statements present fairly the assets, other than fixed assets, and liabilities of the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District as of June 30, 1977, and the changes in fund balances, consolidated revenues and expenditures of operating funds and surplus revenues, appropriations and ex- penditures for the year then ended, in, con- formity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1977 (1) Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District Agreement The Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District was formed by an agreement between the towns, dated June 15, 1954, to build and operate a high school facility to serve this region. At special town meetings held in Dennis and Yarmouth on February 27, 1975, the voters adopted an amendment to this agreement whereby, beginning July 1, 1975, the School 152 Revenues $2,731,654 4,806,026 165,712 468,400 714,626 668,228 2,767 $9,557,413 Expenditures $5,543,704 532,561 65,678 296,113 619,599 994,235 46,559 42,105 77,667 128,610 $8,346,831 $1,210,582 District assumed responsibility for operating elementary schools and middle schools within the region in addition to the high school. The accompanying financial statements include the financial transactions of the Regional School District, as defined in the amended agreement, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1977. (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting In accordance with general practices of municipal government units and the re- quirements of the Bureau of Accounts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the ac- companying financial statements include the transactions of the various funds of Dennis - Yarmouth Regional School District reported on a modified accrual basis of accounting. On the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when they are available for use by the District to fund its current school year's operations and, except for pension and vested sick pay costs (see Note 5), expenditures are recognized as the related liabilities are incur- red. The statements of revenues and expen- ditures are statements of financial activities of the funds related to the current reporting period; they do not purport to present the results of operations or the net income or loss for the period. To the extent that general funds are used to finance activities within other fund groups, the amounts so porvided are accounted for as transfers of revenues. Fund Accounting The District follows fund accounting pro- cedures whereby, for accounting and reporting purposes, resources for various purposes are classified in a self -balancing set of accounts for recording the assets, liabilities, a fund balance and changes in the fund balance in accordance with the limitations imposed by the funding agency. The School District's funds consist of: Surplus Revenues Surplus revenues represent the cumulative balance resulting from all financial transactions relating to the administration, instruction and maintenance activities of the School District. Construction Funds The construction funds include the financial transactions related to the design and construc- tion of the administration building and the addi- tion to the high school. Cafeteria and Other Funds The cafeteria and other funds include prin- cipally the financial transactions relating to ac- tivities of the school lunch program as well as funds designated for athletic events and band activities. Federal and State Grant Funds The Federal and state grant funds include the 153 transactions related to Federal or state spon- sored programs to assist disadvantaged students and fulfill other specialize educational requirements. Trust Funds The trust funds include receipts from various donors which are used to provide awards to worthy students. Accrued Contract Payroll Certain teachers covered by the School District's contract with the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional Teachers' Association, covering the fiscal year ended June 30, 1977, elect to receive their annual salary over a twelve-month period beginning in September and ending in August. Amouhts not yet paid to these teachers as of June 30, 1977, are accrued by the School District at that date and are included in expen- ditures of the period then ended. Fixed Assets Equipment purchases financed with operating funds and debt principal payments related to facilities are funded annually through assessments (based on budgeted amounts of such expenditures) to the participating towns for each fiscal period. Acoordingly, related payments are recorded as expenditures against the budget for the current period. As is the practice with many school districts and municipalities in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the School District has not maintained historical cost records of its fixed assets, and accordingly, a statement of general. fixed assets is not included in the accompany ing financial statements. (3) School District Assessments Under terms of the agreement, as amended, establishing the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional School District, the School District's costs are apportioned and assessments are levied against the towns forming the District. The District's costs are apportioned as follows: (4) Leased Facilities The School District has leases covering four elementary and two middle schools within the town of Dennis and Yarmouth, whereby the District has the use of these facilities through June 30, 1990, with an option for an additional fifteen -year period, at an annual cost of $1 for each of the facilities. Under the terms of the agreements, the School District is responsible for the cost of operation, including utilities and insurance, and maintenance of these facilities. Employee Benefit Plans Retirement Benefits Certain administrative and other professional employees and teachers of the School District participate individually in a contributory retire- ment plan administered by the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement Board. The School District does not contriaute to this plan. Retirement benefits are provided for other employees of the School District by the District's participation in the Barnstable County Retirement Association. Under the provisions of this plan, employees contribute certain percentages of their pay and are eligible for retirement benefits after attaining the prescrib- ed age and/or period of service criteria. In addi- tion, the School District contributes to this plan an annual amount determined by the Com- monwealth of Massachusetts -Department of Banking and Insurance, primarily on the basis of projected annual benefit payments for the year ("Pay-as-you-go"). The School District's contributions to this plan for fiscal year 1977 was $115,425. The amount of unfunded vested benefits of the Barnstable County Retirement Association was last determined as of January 1, 1974. The amount of such benefits related to the Regional School District has not been separately reported. However, by comparing the ag- gregate pay of participating employees of the School District to similar data for the total par- ticipants of the Barnstable County Retirement 'Association, it is estimated that, based upon data contained in the 1974 study, annual pen- sion cost would have been approximately $227,000. Unfunded vested benefits are estimated to be approximately $1,800,000. It is anticipated that the excess of actuarially calculated provisions for annual pension cost over that reflected on a "pay-as-you-go" basis will increase in 1978 and future years. Sick Leave Benefits Under terms of the contracts covering the employees of the School District, certain employees are entitled to fifteen days of paid sick leave annually. Unused sick leave may be accumulated indefinitely up to a specified max- imum. 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 a rate of $15 per day for accumulated sick leave. As of June 30, 1977, such accumulated vested 154 sick leave of Regional School District employees approximated 8,187 days. No recognition has been given in the accounts of the School District to the liability approximating $123,000 for these vested benefits or to the $9,000 increase in the liability for vested benefits earned during fiscal 1977. Notes and Bonds Anticipation Notes Anticipation notes are notes issued to banks for periods of less than one year, and may be reissued upon expiration of the original maturi- ty. Such notes were issued to provide tem- porary financing for the construction of the School District's administration building, corn-` pleted early in 1977 and the engineering and planning of the high school addition. The School District replaced these borrowings with the proceeds of the series bonds issued in Ju- ly, 1977 (see Note 7). Serial Bonds The 2.9% Serial Bonds were issued as of May 1, 1963, in an aggregate amound of $700,000, maturing at a rate of 2% ($35,000 principal amount) annually. Interest payments are made semiannually on November 1 and May 1 of each year. The serial bonds (including those to beused to refinance the anticipation notes) will be retired using funds raised through taxation by Dennis and Yarmouth. These future assess- ments for repayment of debt principal are reflected as assts on the accompanying state- ment of assets and liabilities. Construction Funds On July 13, 1977, the School District sold $4,600 of 4.75% bonds payable as follows: Amount $425,000 400,000 375,000 350,000 325,000 Due in June 1978 1979 to 1983 inclusive 1984 to 1987 inclusive 1988 1989 The proceeds from the sale of these bonds will be used to finance construction, equipping and furnishing of an addition to the high school, remodeling the present high school facility, and constructing and furnishing the school .ad-'' ministration building. ' The School District Committee has also authorized $300,000 for the renovation ot the John. Simpkins Elementary School which will be financed from current operating funds and surplus revenue.

Because of the tremendous increase in activi- ty and filings, the Conservation Office is staffed with a full time secretary and is open daily from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., to better serve the public. There were over 43 wetland hearings held in the past year, with Orders of Conditions, and some denials issued in each case. The town has acquired through gifts and pur- chases 29 plus acres of land this year. One of the primary purposes of this land is for the recreational enjoyment of the townspeople. The Commissioners wish to express their gratitude to the townspeople, the Department of Natural Resources, Sanitary Landfill Person- nel and the other town departments for their cooperation, assistance and interest in all our projects of this past year. Respectfully submitted, LEE COLTON, Chairman Conservation Commission . • Report of the BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE To the Board of Selectmen and Citizens of the Town of Yarmouth Our year.was uneventful, but we were happy to see the completion of the iron work on the old pump in Yarmouth Port. We hope to have a colorful planting there next Spring that will last through the summer season. Again we took care of the Christmas lights at the three traditional spots in the town but regret 178 to say that sets of lights were again stolen and countless bulbs taken also. It is rather discour aging, and we are wondering if the enjoyment from the trees compensates for the cost to'•the townspeople. Our committee has been active°in opposing any variances that have been re- quested of the Appeals Board if they do not conform to our present zoning or sign code.. It doesn't seem that we can make much progress in changing the image of Route 28, but if we do not let more unsightly changes occur, perhaps that is a step in the right direction. We had high hopes that the Route 28 Committee for Beautification would help in this connection but after one stirring meeting, it apparently was shelved for more important activities. Again this year we hope to have .more planting with the continued cooperation, of the Park Department and hope that all businesses along the con- troversial Route 28 will do their utmost to im- prove this area. Respectfully submitted, Beautification Committee IRMA SPURR, Chairman HOWARD C. DOANE, JR. MARJORIE MARTIN • RUTH PORTER Report of the WATERWAYS COMMITTEE To The Honorable Board Of Selectmen and The Citizens of Yarmouth: • The Waterways Committee met in.'.regular sessions on the third Thursday of each -month throughout the year as well as in sessions, with the Waterways Committees of the towns of Barnstable and Dennis. • This Committee, which operates under the Board of Selectmen, has two main functions: One, to act as an advisory committee. -to the Board of Selectmen and other town. -depart- ments and agencies in waterways related mat- ters and,. two, to operate and maintain the .four. town owned small boat marinas. These r arinas produced an income to .the town's treasury of $7,150.00 during the past boating season with maintenance and other specifically related ex- penditures of $960.00. •Boating continues to expand each year and with this expansion adequate dockage is in de- mand. It is hoped that sometime in the near future, the town can increase its present marina facilities. It is of interest to note that there are 804. known taxable vessels in the Town which accounted for a tax revenue to the town of $34,360. During the past year, the Waterways Commit- tee made recommendations and sponsored ar- ticles in the warrants of the regular and special town meetings to dredge the entrance channels of Bass River and Parker's River in the hope of reducing the west to east littoral drift of sand which continues to shoal up Bass River Chan- nel. ,The Town of Dennis- also voted matching funds for the dredging of Bass River. All dredg- ing—or so-called "side casting"—will be done during, the Spring of 1978 with the hope this emergency dredging will keep the channels of Parker's River and Bass River open during the boating season. The money voted by the town for the exten- sion of the Bass River west jetty was to be mat- ched by the State. However, the State had previously committed its available funds for this type of work and thus the town's share_ will be carried over until such time as the State will pro- duce its share. The need for a more adequate and longer lasting, but more costly, type of dredging than "side casting" was the subject of discussion by citizens of both Yarmouth and Dennis with their Boards of Selectmen. The result was' the ap- pointment of a Study Committee to explore the feasibility of forming a Regional Waterways . Commission to take over the control and maintenance of Bass River, it being felt that the two 'towns operating through one commission would have more impact on the agencie•whicfi could provide monetary and engineering help in • solving the ever present shoaling problems of Bass. River. Two members of this committee were appointed to this Study Committee., Yarmouth's Waterways Committee has also met with the Barnstable Waterways Committee to discuss mutual problems in the Lewis.Bay- HyannisLHarbor.area. A sub-committee formed from both committees will work on a major pro- ject for the betterment of this boating area. Under -the sponsorship of this comrniftee and with supervisory help of the town's Department of -Natural Resources; four experimental wooden-sand catching groins were installed on � � f 179: Colonial Acres beach to stop the littoral drift of sand into the mouth of the old Mill Creek and to build up the beach with this sand. This committee was one of the initial spon- sors of a bill submitted to the State legislature to permit maintenance dredging without having to apply for a permit once the initial project has been approved and a permit issued. This bill was passed by the legislature and signed by the Governor. It is now possible to do maintenance dredging for a period of 10 years after the com- pletion of an approved project without the necessity of providing the multitudinous and cumbersome paperwork previously associated with this type of project. The work of this committee to establish an ar- tificial fishing reef off of Bass River in Nan- tucket Sound using old tires has finally come to fruition and it is expected the reef will be con- structed by the beginning of Summer 1978. We hope this reef will provide many hours of happy fishing close to shore for the small boat operators. Respectfully submitted, MORRIS I. JOHNSON, JR., Chairman JAMES BARTLETT RALPH CIPOLLA, JR. WALLACE C. LIBERTY J. LEE MARCHILDON JOHN L. SILVER, JR. WILLIAM TURNER Report of the DEPARTMENT OF. . NATURAL RESOURCES To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of Yarmouth SHELLFISH Due to the lengthy and extremely cold weather during the, winter of '76-'77, our shellfish beds suffered greatly. After a survey of winter -kill, this department found it necessary to increase its replanting efforts and restocked the areas most affected by the cold weather with over $7,000 worth of quahogs, clams and oysters. This restocking, plus an ear- ly spring, returned most beds to normal. Softshell clams on the north side of town showed a slow increase. However, our pro- pagation efforts were destroyed by predatory humans. We will endeavor again, this coming summer, to increase the future availability of softshell clams by laying fine plastic netting on the flats to catch the clam spat, or larval. These areas will be staked out and marked with signs. We sincerely hope the public will help us to pro- tect these propagation areas by reporting im- mediately any observed violations. Oysters showed excellent growth this past summer. The catch of spat, or larval, using scallop shells in the nursery beds was most successful. We will double our efforts this com- ing spawning season to increase our oyster beds. Quahogs suffered the greatest winter -kill, it was necessary to cultivate, re -stock and replant the major productive bottoms in order to reestablish their productivity. The growth and availability of scallops in Lewis Bay continues to be hampered by the seaweed called Codium, or "Jap -grass." Due to this sea plant, very little harvesting has been possible during the past few years. Several agencies are studying methods for the eradica- tion of this pest plant. Considering the winter - kill, Bass River produced a fair sized crop of scallops. However, due to the lack of scallops in other areas and the large number of persons who fished for scallops in the river, the major harvest was over lin about three weeks. This department wishes to call to the atten- tion of all purchasers of shellfish licenses the necessity of filling out the "Catch Record" on the reverse of their licenses. Your previous year's license should be turned in with the "Catch Record" filled in as accurately as possi- ble when you obtain your new license. These "Catch Records" are totaled and form the basis for several reports this department must make to the State. Help us to assure future shellfish i ng. SHELLFISH PERMITS (4/1/76.3/31/77) Resident 1749 @ $3.00 $5,247. Non -Resident Daily 22 @ $5.00 110. Non -Resident Annual 2 @ $25.00 50. Commercial 38 @ $25.00 950. Totals 1811 $6,357. WATER POLLUTION Water sampling of the waterways and run-off. sources by the department is a continuing pro - 180 cess with a biologist employed during the sum- mer months to give us professional assistance. This has proven to be a most worthwhile pro- ject, and we are currently working on the three remaining sources of pollution in the town discovered by the biologist this past summer. We will again have a biologist helping us in the summer of 1978. This department is also setting up emergency procedure and equipment to provide immediate on -scene containment and absorption of any oil spills until, if necessary, professional help can arrive. CONSERVATION Nature trails in most all of the town's conser- vation areas have been opened -up, maintained, or expanded with the aid of CETA personnel under the supervision of this department. The trail in the Dennis Pond Conservation Area was extended so that it now runs from Willow Street to the Town Beach on Summer Street with side trails leading to the water for fishing or bird - watching. Booklets are now available at the Town Hall which show all the conservation area nature trails and the flora and fauna that one can ex- pect to see. These trails are also ideal for bird - watching. Our patrols note a decided increase in the use of these trails. The Spring Herring Run was excellent as was the Fall release of the fry returning to the sea. It is planned to dig out 3,000 feet of the Swan Lake -Long Pond herring run early this coming Spring in order to remove debris and provide additional water depth along its entire length. This will be accomplished with CETA help and is a much needed and worthwhile project. In addition to the shellfish, fish and game, forestry and other conservation duties of this department, we investigated 141 calls on viola- tion of the Wetlands Act', Chapter 131, Section 40, of the Commonwealth's General Laws. I personally, and in behalf of the department, wish to thank the citizens and the town, state and county agencies for their cooperation in the year just passed. Respectfully submitted, MORRIS I. JOHNSON, JR. Supervisor, Department of Natural Resources SPECIAL COMMISSIONS; COMMITTEES Golf Commission • Youth Commission • Recreation Committee Yarmouth Historic Commission Old Kings Highway Historic District Commission Cape Cod Planning and Economic Development Commission MARK HORVATH Grade 7—Age 12 9 Report of the GOLF COURSE COMMITTEE For the calendar year 1977 the income from the Bass River Golf Course amounted to $194,449.00 after deducting golf cart leasing ex- pense and Massachusetts sales tax. With operating expenses totaling $174,959.00 the net income to the town amounted to $19,490.00. The membership list continues to grow and reached a total of 955 by the end of 1977. The commission is apprehensive as to how many more members can reasonably be ac- commodated. In June of 1978 the Town of Yarmouth will have owned and operated the Bass River Golf Course for 25 years. In this period many im- C �r CCYZ uc`se1-'. provements in course design and upkeep, the clubhouse facilities and the overall manage- ment have occurred. This has resulted in the ability to adequately accommodate more members and guests. As a result, the Golf Com- mittee is again investigating the possibility of an additional town owned golf course which is needed to satisfy the recreational needs of the townspeople and their guests. The commission wishes to express particular appreciation to the golf club employees and members for their efforts and concern that con- tributed much toward the past year's success. NYE CROWELL Chairman • RAYMOND F. MELLOW- Vice Chairman HAZEL ELLIS MILLAR Secretary H. FREEMAN CASH JAMES R. MacNEILL COLLEEN KING Grade 6—Age 11 182 Report of the YOUTH COMMISSION To the Yarmouth Board of Selectmen and Citizens of Yarmouth Annual Report for the Year 1977 of the Yar- mouth Youth Commission_ The Commission has gone through a great deal of change since the time of our last report. It has expanded the youth program and staff to meet the requirement of more members and an ever increasing variety of human needs. The focal point of the Youth Commission's program is through its building, located at 22 Lewis Road, West Yarmouth. Because of the structure, the program has been designed to use suitable other outside facilities when possi- ble. The nature of the programs are educa- tional, recreational, human awareness, and crafts oriented to expand the horizons of a seg- ment of the population that would otherwise be unable to obtain the positive experiences avail- able through the center's programs. The programs are available to all the youth of the Town of Yarmouth, and it is designed to be beneficial to any and all who are interested. The Commission with the input of its staff is con- stantly examining the needs of its members in an effort to establish new programs and added services to more completely serve its members and, ultimately serve the community. To this end,'short range goals were established. The first being to increase 'the staff, this was ac- complished by the establishment of a work study summer internship program with the Uni- versity of Massachusetts. Through this affilia- tion, we were able to add a full time staff member for our summer program at a'minimal cost. \\ This additional person made it possible to increase the n tuber and variety of field trips for the members nd create new craft programs never before possible. The Commisionhas since tried to keep the position funded through the CETA Progr,m. Through the addition of our CETA employee, Kathy Travis, we have been able to offer mluch needed counselling on a 183 one-to-one basis made possible with the new expertise and opportunity. The second important short term goal has been involved with doing much of the ad- ministrative work necessary to establish con- tinuity. We have written a complete handbook which is presently in the process of being printed to add stability necessary for the members to rely on the program and therefore develop with the knowledge that the center and its various facilities are in fact permanent. At the same time, the short term goals are be- ing established and achieved. The Commission is developing the long term goals necessary to keep the program in focus and moving to meet the ever changing needs of its membership. We are working with the Community and its needs through the schools, police department, courts, and other human resource agencies to develop viability and continuity in dealing with the complete person. We are attempting to demonstrate in a positive way how society works and how young people should prepare themselves to be part of the social structure. The Commission has attempted to show its members the guidepost of conduct, attitude and human interaction upon which they will be able to face their futures constructively. The Commission relies heavily upon its staff to carry out the established program; without them we would not function. We are also thankful for efforts and funding provided by the citizens of Yarmouth. We will continue our positive effort into the next year with your help, knowing that a valuab- le service to the community is being ac- complished. _ Respectfully, JAMES H . QUIRK, JR. MAUREEN G. EVLETH DAVID REID ANDREA REID PAUL R. F. WILD JIM DUNHAM Staff ROBERT BERRIO JONI PECK KATHY TRAVIS Report of the RECREATION COMMITTEE To the Citizens of Yarmouth: During 1977 the Yarmouth Recreation Com- mission contributed support to sixteen pro- grams involving approximately 1,800 par- ticipants operating on a budget of $22,125.00 Our programs and program representatives are as follows: 1.

Offers the opportunity for women to continue to compete and enjoy their softball skills after youth and high school programs. Yarmouth Youth Softball (9-12 years) Mrs. Betty Douthright Yarmouth Youth Softball (13-15 years) Mrs. Nina Harkenrider Yarmouth Youth Softball is one of our newer programs and enthusiasm has been im- measurable. One hundred fifty participants (mostly girls) play softball during the Spring and Summer. This allows those who do not qualify for school teams an opportunity to play and strengthen their skills and gives those who compete on school teams extra experience. Due to added experience in organization in- creased enrollment is expected. 13. Summer Program for Boys Mr. Robert Hamilton 14. Summer Program for Girls Miss Colleen Sullivan For six weeks from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon daily boys and girls ages nine to twelve years enroll in a wide variety of recreational activities. 15.

Weight Training and Basketball Mr. Robert Hamilton Evening program held at D -Y Regional High School from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The town is fortunate to have such dedicated program heads and countless volunteers donating time and knowledge. Rarely does the Town of Yarmouth fund a pro- gram 100%. Initiative shown by programs in their numerous fund-raising practices should be commended. It should also be noted that excellent cooperation exists between other Town Depart- ments; e.g. Mr. Merrill Wilson, D -Y Regional High School facilities, Mr. George Cross, John Simpkins facilities; Mr. Gary Getchell, Mat- tacheese facilities; Mr. Peter Homer, Town Disposal Equipment; Mr. John Newton, Town Surveyor. The Commission is still experiencing a dire need for more baseball and softball facilities. This year many changes have taken place in the membership due to resignations and atten- dance problems. Five new appointments were made. The Commission sincerely appreciates the interest and cooperation shown by the town. It is with great enthusiasm we look forward to the completion of the new little league field for the 1978 season. Respectfully submitted, FRANCES M. KENNEY, Secretary LAWRENCE STREET CHARLES HART • NINA HARKEN RIDER RAY MERRICK VICTOR ENRIGHT ROBERT LENDRUM JEROME MANNING FRANCES KENNEY • 185 Report of the YARMOUTH HISTORIC COMMISSION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of Yarmouth: ' The responsibility of the Historic Commission is to oversee and maintain such historic sites as the Windmill on Bass River at the end of Willow Street and the Baxter Gristmill on Main Street in West Yarmouth. During this past summer we were most for- tunate to have the Olde Bass River Chapter 747 of The Questers, under the direction of Mrs. Carlton Jensen, volunteer to keep the Baxter Mill open each Wednesday from June 21st through August so that interested persons could see the interior of the mill and its old machinery and to learn of its history. During the period the mill was open, 269 visitors signed the guest book. These visitors were from fourteen states, three Canadian pro- vinces and one foreign country. We extend thanks to Mrs. Jensen and The Questers for the many hours they devoted to this project. It is hoped that this.coming summer other organiza- tions will volunteer to help us keep the Gristmill open at least three or four days each week. The Gristmill will be opened for tours if prior ar- rangements are made. Maintenance accomplished at the Gristmill was the repairing of the chain-link fence sur- rounding the mill which was partially destroyed by an automobile accident and the repair and extension of the sccurity alarm system as well, as normal grounds maintenance. Respectfully submitted, LEROY P. ROGERS, JR. MORRIS I. JOHNSON, JR. HOWARD A. SPU RR Report of the OLD KINGS HIGHWAY HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: Building in 1977 in The Historic' District con- tinued along at about the same pace as 1976, with 203 applications being approved for new houses, businesses, and alterations.Only three were declined at the time of presentment; at a later meeting these were approved with modifications. Sixteen signs were approved, again with changes suggested by the Commit- tee. Seven temporary greenhouses were ap- proved, these in an industrial zone. Two ap- plications were withdrawn and five Certificates of Exemption were approved. HEIDI EDMUNDS Grade 6 — Age 12 186 Trenor Goodell did not run for re-election and Ernest Cole, Jr was elected to succeed him. In December of 1977, Frederick C. Schauwecker, Jr. resigned due to pressure of business, and' Robert Studley was appointed by the Select- men to replace him until the annual election in December of 1978. Again, we would like to remind residents of the Town that The Historic District now en- compasses all property north of Route 6 (the Mid -Cape Highway) and, therefore, need ap- proval of The Historic District to build, alter, or remove any buildings in the District, and forthe erection or remodeling of signs. Respectfully submitted, JOHN E. HARRIS, Chairman GEORGE PLUGGE ALEXANDER CATTO ERN EST COLE, JR. FREDERICK C. SCHAUWECKER, JR. Report of the .CAPE COD. PLANNING AND ECONOMIC 'DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION To the Honorable Board of Selectmen & Citizens of Yarmouth: The Commission took the lead in a variety of planning and economip development activities throughout 1977. Issu'es,of major concern to Cape residents, such as wastewater management and water "quality, coastal zone management, transportation were addressed. Every effort was made to involve local citizens in the planning process by means of standing advisory committees, public hearings and meetings, and information sharing. A brief summary of, a portion of, the Commission's activities during 1977 follows: 208 WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLANNING PROGRAM " The 208 Water Quality Plan for Cape Cod will be published in 1978. Town officials and citizens will have an opportunity to comment on the final plan prior to its submission to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Quality Engineering and the U. S. En- vironmental Protection Agency for approval. The recommendations of the 208 plan will be aimed at encouraging town action to protect the Cape's valuable water resources. In addition, the U.S. Geological Survey Comprehensive Groundwater Study of Cape Cod, will also be completed in the coming year. COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT The coastal policies reviewed by the Advisory Committee covered such topics as: (1) Marine Environment; (2) Coastal Hazards; (3) Visual Environment; (4) Ports and Harbors; (5) Recreation; (6) Energy; (7) General Develop- ment and Public Investment; and (8) Management. TRANSPORTATION A multi -faceted transportation program during 1977 was highlighted by the com- mencement of the Bus Public Transportation Demonstration Program funded by the Urban Mass Transportation Administration. The fleet of vans provides service to residents of all 15 towns, with emphasis placed on meeting the special transportation needs of the elderly and handicapped residents of the County. The rail user survey qualified the three Cape Cod rail freight branch lines as essential lines in the 1976 and 1977 Massachusetts Rail Plans. The three branch lines, because of this desig- nation, will receive operating subsidies over a 5 year period -1976-1980. Respectfully submitted, THOMAS E. KELLEY RALPH CIPOLLA, JR.

Cole, Jr. 1981 /97/ TOM McGRATH 199 Report of the PERSONNEL BOARD To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of Yarmouth: The Personnel Board, a five -member advisory body appointed by the Selectmen, is a board of review and recommendation. Its more impor- tant functions include an annual review of most town departments when employee position step raises may be recommended or rejected, the re-classification of employees, the creation of new positions, and the study and update of the Personnel By -Law whenever deemed of benefit or necessity to the town. In 1977 the board became aware of a growing need for a Director of Town Personnel. At Annual Town Meeting of 1977 the Select- men placed an article on the warrant requesting. that a management study be undertaken. Receiving voter approval, the Selectmen chose the firm of JDA Associates to conduct the study. During the spring and summer of 1977, JDA proceeded with its analysis of Yarmouth government and its personnel needs. A section of the JDA report is devoted to a personnel study. The board agrees that this section may prove to be a useful tool for future guidelines and a position and classification equalizer for male and female town employees. The report suggests the abolition of certain classifications and substitution of classifica- tions based more usually on the economic value of the position. The board, while recognizing that there is merit in the report, is 200 nevertheless concerned that the study may be somewhat superficial. It is the board's opinion that too little time was spent in each department and with individual employees to make in-depth judgments. Further, a fear that implementation at this time will be too costly a burden for the taxpayers to bear. In the autumn of 1977 the board began its an- nual salary and wage review. Our carefully, con- sidered decisions were based on department head recommendations, employee merit, finan- cial impact and the overall benefit to townspeo- ple. During the past year the Personnel Board has been examining the board's usefulness to the town and whether there still exists a need for a board at this type. The unionization of most town employees has negated in most cases the function of the board as a grievance panel. The board's recommendations are occasionally dis- regarded by other advisory bodies. However, in the long view, it is our opinion that with the new changes in government about to occur the need for a citizen Personnel Board exists now more than ever. Respectfully submitted, MARSHALL K. LOVELETTE, Chairman JOHN A. SCOTT, JR. BENJAMIN P. TRACTON EDWARD R. SULLIVAN CATHERINE L. REID, Secretary MARILYN E. TANNER, Clerk Report of the CABLEVISION ADVISORY COMMITTEE To The Honorable Board of Selectmen: The Yarmouth Cablevision Advisory Commit- tee experienced a quiet beginning during the early months of 1977. As programs continue to develop the ad- visory committee continues its education as to what and how local cable TV may provide im- proved services to the local community. The Cape Cod Cablevision Corporation an- nounced in August 1976 that it had initiated the Community Access Programming operation. The purpose of which would allow members of the community to use the facilities of Cape Cod Cablevision to produce, record, and broadcast programs of community interest. Many community groups as well as students from the Dennis -Yarmouth Regional High School have taken advantage of the opportunity of learning how to operate.TV studio equipment and to produce a program. One of the first public access programs to be televised by the Cape Cod Cablevision Corpora- tion was a "live" debate involving Yarmouth of- ficials concerned with the proposed organiza- tional changes to Yarmouth's governmental structure. The televised program was produced by the editorial staff members of the Register, a weekly newspaper published in Yarmouth. In November a public hearing was held in the. Yarmouth Town Hall for determination. of changes in the cable television rates and 201 charges. At this meeting, many townspeople appeared to voice their feelings concerning this issue. As a result, a subsequent meeting was held in order to clarify certain financial issues.• - On January 10, 1978, the Board of Selectmen approved the proposed changes in rates set forth by the Cape Cod Cablevision Corporation. Also in November, a representative for the Yarmouth Cablevision Advisory Committee at- tended a meeting held by the Dennis . Com- munications Advisory Committee to review communications activities of that town. Future plans for this committee include the investigation of the feasibility of a Regional Cablevision Committee for the purpose of ex- ploring cablevision problems that may be of mutual concern to the five towns now being served by the Cape Cod Cablevision Corpora- tion. For the committee, may I extend my gratitude to the two new committee members, Richard Holbrook and Rupert L. Nichols, Jr., whose ex- pertise in the communication field will add greatly to the purposes of this committee. Respectfully submitted, JOHN F. MEEHAN, JR., Chairman RALPH CIPOLLA, JR. JOSEPH COTELL RAYMOND LAWTON WILLIAM BUTLER RICHARD HOLBROOK RUPERT L. NICHOLS, JR. 10 Report of the COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE During the year 1977, the Massachusetts Plan of Coastal Zone Management was finalized. After three years of meetings with represen- tatives of the other Cape towns, plus hours spent questioning various agencies dealing with areas within the scope of the plan, we presented Yarmouth's section to the office in Boston. Unfortunately, what was viewed as im- portant to the town of Yarmouth was not viewed important enough by the staff in Boston to be included in the final plan as it pertains to Cape Cod. However, after numerous public meetings where the plan was presented for discussion, the people of Yarmouth had opportunities to question the authorities on the various aspects of the final draft before it was sent to .v► SANDRA SHAVE Grade 7 Washington for acceptance. It is now but a mat- ter of time before the plan becomes law. We, the representatives of the town of Cape Cod have won the concession of being able to sit on a panel in the office of the Cape Cod Planning and Economic Development Council to review the implementation of the plan in areas pertain- ing to Cape Cod. We wish to thank the selectmen, the various department heads, and all the interested citizens of the town who gave us so much assistance in our task of presenting Yarmouth's needs to the new agency.
