Article 22: As was the case when the previous public hearing was held in 1982, the Board feels that by keeping the Zoning Bylaws the way they are now gives the Town an extra measure of protection by allowing the Zoning Board of- Appeals an opportunity to review any proposed business uses in Industrial areas. In addition, the article, as proposed, would not only cover the area of Rte. I A for which the argument was made, but all the other industrial property in Town.

llO FINANCES BOARD OF ASSESSORS

To the Citizens of the Town of Norfolk: In 1983 the Board of Assessors continu~d sales analysis comparisons for various neighborhood areas in town. There has been a significant land value increase in newly developed neighborhoods. Because of the change in law, Norfolk will not be subject to recertification by the State until 1985 (FY 86); however, the Board will update values when justified by sales analysis in the continued effort to avoid another State mandated revaluation. Because of the serious illness of Priscilla Larochelle, our Assistant Assessor, it was necessary to hire and begin training her temporary replacement, Karen Granito. Through her efforts, a continued review of properties is being maintained. Chairman John Robbins was re-elected to the Executive Board of the Massachusetts Association of Assessing Officers and Treasurer of the Norfolk/Suffolk Counties Assessors Association. Walter Zagieboylo was elected Vice President of the Norfolk/Suffolk Counties Assessors Association. We express our appreciation to our office staff and all Town Officers for their continued support and assistance. Respectfully submitted, John H.. Robbins, Jr. , Chairman Walter Zagieboylo John W. Evans

114 FINANCES ADVISORY BOARD

Thank you for your support at last year's Town Meeting. A few more of you

turned out for the meeting than the previous year, anc1 the evidence that we had

accomplished our homework was reflected in your support of the Advisory Board 1s

recommendations. We definitely appreciate it, and firmly believe that the de­

partments in Town do also.

Proposition 2½ has placed a tremendous amount of added burden on the

departments, and especially on the Advisory Board, which works hard to present

you with a balanced spending program to keep all departments' and Town needs

funded. Last year presented a typical example: We recommended and prioritized

the overall program as best we could.

You approved an E.lementary School spending program which was significantly

higher than we, after careful study, recommended and which we considered ex••

cessive for their needs, not their wants. The result, due to the limitations

imposed, was that the Town-wide computer system could not be fully funded

and implemented.

This year the average requested budget from all departments has evidenced

close to a 10 percent increase over last year, not a 2½ percent increase. Our

work has been cut out for us, and we 111 need your continued support at Tow,~

Meeting to assure that the needs of all departments are addressed.

j In respect to these needs, we would say that the overall salary levels of our I Town employees is of great importance. We all want responsive Town government.

To gain that we have to, as a start, compensate the employees at competitive l levels with the private sector and other towns, and other departments. We ! t f '., l

115 • • FINANCES have seen a continuous pattern of our immediate Town personnel rece1vmg very

small percentages of increase wheret'.S our school systems and industry have

consistently ranged from seven to ten percenL That happened m times of rampant

inflation and a significant discrepancy ~xists today. Our Town 1s growing rapidlYJ

and if we want to have good people to help us cope intelligently and productively

with that growth) then we have to fill that pay gap to maintain the excellent

work force we have and be competitive in the acquisition of new employees.

With our rapid growth, both real and projected, we feel that the 2½ percent

cap is required to control the demands being placed on all departments, some

more directly than others. The demands on our Library, Police, Fire, Highway,

Building, and Water departments have risen dramatically. This year has seen the

addition of Part-time help to the Tax Collector's office, Board of Health, and

Building Departments. As other examples: the Appeals Board has heard in six

months the number of appeals thc).t used to constitute a year's effort; highways

and roadways are growing,, need plowing, sanding and maintenance. More roads,

more homes, and more people place added demands on the Police and Fire

departments.

This year you will be asked to approve three major capital expenditures:

a. Expansion of the Public Library facilities

b. Expansion of Police/Fire/Communications facilities

c. Addition of a water tower to the water system.

All three efforts are needed. It is not a case of wanting. It is a case of

a library, its approximately $500,000 in assets and increased demand that needs

I expanded facilities. It is the case of a building, housing our key safety depart-

ments, Fire/Police/Communications, that no longer can meet the needs. It is a

116 FINANCES case of a water system which can no longer provide the water pressure and quantity required to fight a fire at our schools, Library, Town Hall, etc,, i.e., for the whole Town and, equally important, provide th•' pressure required to meet homeowner needs.

We will be proposing a bond issue on the ballot and an appropriations article on the Warrant to cover these extraordinary efforts. We urge your serious consideration and support.

We also commend to you the Permanent Building Committee, which we feel has done a truly outstanding job along with Library, Police, Fire and Communi •• cations department personnel in pulling together a realistic and economical pro­ posal to meet the needs. It boils down to a very practical decision: if we, as

taxpayers, want the protection and the service I we are going to · .ave to foot the bill. The other side of the coin says, because of the need and increased demands, protection and service will deteriorate and on top of that we'll start losing our better people. We feel we can take just pride in the Town and the people who serve us. We have to give these people the tools and facilities to do the job if we want to sustain the protection and service levels we have.

We support the 2½ cap, and feel everyone should adjust to live within it; however in the case of the three issues this year we will be asking you to make an exception. An exception, for this on~ time, based on the hard fact that these items should have been taken care of long before the 2½ cap went into effect. By doing it this one time, the Town will be able to get its act to­ gether and plan intelligently for future capital expenditures. A well established fact is that Town government needs additional office space. To plan for this need,. we will be recommending that each year an amount be placed in the

Stabilization Fund. When the proposal is subsequently prepared and presented

117 ,i: ' .:II' .. FINANCES for your approvalJ we will be able to pay for the expenditure from available/

projected funds and not require an exception to the·· 2½ percent cap.

We as a Town, per se, nave procrastinated in doing something constructive

on the three efforts mentioned above for too long. The result, coupled with our

dramatic growth, is that we find ourselves in a hole, and unless we make this

one exception, we will not be able to do a reasonable job of financial planning

in the future under 2½ to meet your Town government I s needs.

To do an adequate job under Proposition 2½ and to assure you of a respon­

sive town government across-the-board places a heavy burden on all departments

to look ahead. This in turn places added burdens on the Capital Outlay Com­

mittee and the Advisory Board. The Planning Board has indicated an up-dating

of the Master Plan is being considered. We strongly endorse the effort and

recommend that it include a ten and twenty-five year fiscal plan.

We thank you again for your support and urge you to attend Town Meeting.

Norfolk's planning for orderly growth requires team effort, and you, the tax­

payer, are the team captain. We only recommend; you are the decision maker.

We hope to see you at Town Meeting, and we hope for your continued support.

Respectfully submitted: William C. Wright, Chairman Cheryl Masterson Robert Cooke Gerald Flynn Marjorie Cavanaugh Roger Gilbert Lee Gentile Harold Sundquist

i1, .. .. FINANCES INSURANCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE REPORT

The function of the Committee is to serve the Board of Selectmen in an advisory capacity regarding the town 1 s insurance programs.

The committee is comprised of four members with many years of insurance and risk management experience. These members offer the town their expertise in all areas of insurance and loss control.

During 1983, the Committee reviewed the entire insurance program, and worked with the Selectmen, the Personnel Board and the town's insurance broker to amend coverages as needed, evaluate exposures, and investigate new lines of insurance. The Committee is available to the Board of Selectmen on a call basis and is involved in several on­ going insurance related projects.

120 FINANCES CAPITAL OUTLAY COMMITTEE

As in past years, the Capital Outlay Committee (COG) has made an effort to contact a 11 Town departments and committees to determine capital item requirements. A capital item is defined as the purchase of, or improvement to, land, buildings and equipment exceeding $500 in cost with a useful life of three years or more. Typically, departments respond on a regular basis since they are full-time continuous functions. Committee plans, however, may evolve at any time during a given year due to the scope of special projects and certain time constraints. Such is the case this y0.ar. At this point, the COC is not prepared to submit a final recommended capital spending plan. Every effort will be made to nave the plan completed prior to the submittal of Warrant Articles for review.
