2019—2020 ANNUAL REPORT

1 ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

During the summer of 2018 the Town of Greenville requested donations to help in replacing the“ pirate ship” playset located at the Junction Wharf. In less than 6 months there was an overwhelming response in donations from local families, individuals and businesses. Due to this generous support the Town of Greenville was able to purchase a new “pirate ship,” “train” playset and a beautiful sign which was created by Moosehead Signs.

Our plan had been to hold a Grand Opening and Thank You Bar-b-que for the Junction Wharf Play Area, but due to a few delays and now with COVID-19 guidelines we have been unable to do just that. We did however want to make sure that we said THANK YOU once again to all those that donated towards making the Junction Wharf Play Area, an enjoyable area for families. It’s wonderful to see kids young and old enjoying the area and new playsets. If you haven’t done so yet we encourage you to stop by the Junction Wharf and check out the new area. Thank You!

—— DEDICATION —— John ‘Jack’ Hart

In April of 2005 Jack Hart was hired by the Town of Greenville as part-time Recreation Director. With him he brought 30 years experience of being the Recreation Director for the City of Bath. He brought many new recreation opportunities to the citizens of Greenville and helped the Town structure the department for the future. In 2008 Jack began to grow an interest in the Code Enforcement position and was appointed full-time Code Enforcement Officer. Though, Jack stepped aside from being the Recreation Director, you could always find him volunteering his time on the court or in the field, and lending sound advice to new Recreation Directors in the years that followed.

During Jack’s years as Code Enforcement Officer (CEO) he was an overseer of multiple town projects and devel- opments that were taking place within the Greenville area. Jack worked closely with the Town Manager through this time, so it was only fitting and natural that he step in as Interim Town Manager, for a month in 2013, as the Town transitioned from one Town Manager to another. He did this for the Town not only in 2013 but once again in 2016 as the Town transitioned to yet another Town Manager. By Jack stepping up and taking on this important role of Interim Town Manager, it made both of these transitions smooth and effective.

Jack decided in 2018 that after 43 years of serving in Municipal Government, it was time to retire and enjoy some quality time on the golf course. On April 27, 2018 we thanked him for his dedication and commitment to serving our community.

In October of 2018 the Town of Greenville once again found themselves without a Town Manager. Jack decided that although he was starting to get used to retirement, his heart was still dedicated to helping and serving the Town of Greenville, so he came back as Interim Town Manager, only this time he filled the position for 9 months. During this time Jack really stepped up to the plate helping to move projects along, supporting the office staff as transitions were being made, and worked closely with the Select Board as they made their selection of a new Town Manager. In July of 2019 the Town of Greenville welcomed Mike Roy as Town Manager and Jack helped him through this new endeavor for a few months.

Jack was once again able to slip back into retirement, but not for long…in November of 2019 the Town of Greenville found themselves without a Code Enforcement Officer. Jack once again paused his retirement and filled in as CEO on a part-time basis, working closely with the Select Board as they made their selection for a new CEO. Finally, in April of 2020 Jack went back into full retirement, but it is comforting to know that he is just a phone call away for help and advice.

Jack, because of your dedication and service to the Town of Greenville we would like to dedicate the 2019/2020 Town Report to you. Thank you again for all the you have done and continue to do to help make Greenville a better place to live, work, and play.

ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

Dear Friends,

It is an honor to represent Maine in the United States Senate. I am grateful for the trust the people of our state have placed in me and welcome this opportunity to share some key accomplishments from this past year.

As Chairman of the Senate Aging Committee, I worked to help ensure the well-being of our seniors. The Senior$afe Act I authored became law last year and is empowering banks, credit unions, and other financial institu- tions to better protect seniors from financial fraud.

Following extensive committee investigations of prescription drug pricing, additional legislation I crafted became law, ending the egregious practice of pharmacy “gag clauses” that prevented pharmacists from informing patients on how to pay the lowest possible price.

This year, I was also successful in securing an extra $425 million for Alzheimer’s research—the largest funding increase ever—bringing the total to $2.34 billion. Additionally, the bipartisan BOLD Act I authored will create public health infrastructure to combat Alzheimer’s by promoting education, early diagnosis, and improved care management.

More than 40 million Americans—including 178,000 Mainers—are caregivers for parents, spouses, children, and other loved ones with disabilities or illnesses, such as Alzheimer’s. The RAISE Family Caregivers Act I authored was signed into law last year, giving caregivers more resources and training to better balance the full-time job of caregiving. Another law I wrote will help grandparents who are raising grandchildren, largely due to the opioid addiction crisis.

In addition to helping seniors, a major accomplishment over the past year is the increased federal investment in biomedical research that is leading to progress in the fight against numerous devastating diseases. Congress has boosted funding for the National Institutes of Health by $7 billion in just the last three years, bringing total funding to more than $39 billion.

One of my highest priorities as Chairman of the Transportation Appropriations Subcommittee is to improve our nation’s crumbling infrastructure and ensure that Maine’s needs are addressed. Since the Better Utilizing Invest- ments to Leverage Development (BUILD) Transportation Grants program, formerly known as TIGER, was estab- lished in 2009, I have secured $160 million for vital transportation projects throughout Maine.

Congress also delivered a Farm Bill last year, which includes many important provisions that will help the agriculture industry in Maine and across the country. Specifically, I secured provisions that will strengthen support for young farmers, improve local farm-to-market efforts, and increase funding for organic research.

Congress took decisive action to address the opioid addiction epidemic. In addition to appropriating $8.5 billion in federal funding last year, Congress enacted the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act, a comprehensive package that embraces the multipronged approach I have long advocated for this epidemic: prevention, treatment, recovery, and enforcement to stop drug trafficking.

Maine plays a key role in ensuring a strong national defense. In 2018, Congress provided funding for five ships to be built at Bath Iron Works, which will help to keep our nation safe and provide our skilled shipbuilders a steady job. I also secured more than $162 million for infrastructure projects at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard to support their important work to overhaul Navy submarines.

A Maine value that always guides me is our unsurpassed work ethic. In December 2018, I cast my 6,834th consecutive vote, continuing my record of never missing a roll-call vote since my Senate service began in 1997.

I appreciate the opportunity to serve Maine in the United States Senate. If ever I can be of assistance to you, please contact one of my state offices or visit my website at www.collins.senate.gov. May 2019 be a good year for you, your family, your community, and our state. Sincerely,

Susan M. Collins United States Senator 12 ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

Dear Friends,

As I travel Maine, I hear from people who live in every corner of our state. I hear about their achievements, their successes, their work to improve their communities– I hear about the hope they have for our state. I also hear about our challenges, and all the work we have left to do. As I see it, that’s my job: to listen to you, act where I can to build on what’s good, and work on the tough parts. As 2018 comes to a close, I wanted to take a moment to share an update on some of the work we’re doing in Washington to lift up the accomplishments of Maine people and make progress on the challenges they face.

From Portland to Presque Isle, from Milo to Camden, I hear about the pain that the opioid epidemic is inflicting on Maine communities. ’ I ve met with Maine people in recovery, family members of those struggling with substance use disorders, treatment providers, and law enforcement officials to learn about their experiences with this terrible disease, and everyone agrees that in order to fully respond to these problems, we need a stronger federal effort to end the opioid epidemic. Fortunately, some help is on the way– in October, we over- whelmingly passed a sweeping, bipartisan opioids bill.’ I ve pushed hard for this type of legislation and was proud to have provisions I’ve advocated for included in the bill. These priorities have been guided by the voices of Maine people, and we’ll keep working to confront this tragic problem.

I’ve also worked to strengthen the future of our forest economy. Maine’s forests have powered our state’s economy for generations, especially in our rural communities. So, when rapid shifts in the market led to the closure of many pulp and paper mills and biomass power plants, it required a collaborative approach to support future growth in this important industry. That’s why, together with the other members of the state’s Congressional delegation, I pushed to establish the Economic Development Assessment Team (EDAT). This integrated, multiagency effort aims to foster innovation and commercialization in Maine’s forest economy, and we’re already seeing the benefits: in recent months, several forest industry businesses have announced significant investments into Maine operations, and in September 2018, the Forest Opportunity Roadmap (FOR)/ Maine released an action plan to make sure this industry, and the rural communities it supports, can continue to thrive for generations to come.

As I close this letter, please allow me to express my gratitude to each of you– for your dedication to our state, and to one another. It’s often said that Maine is like a big small town (with very long streets) — that’s because at our heart, we’re one big community. It’s not only a pleasure to serve you – it’s a pleasure to know you. Thank you for being the reason Maine is so special. Mary and I hope that 2019 will be a good year for you, your family, your community, and our great State.

Best,

Angus S. King United States Senator

13 ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

Dear Friends,

I hope this letter finds you well. As I am settling into my new role as your representative, I wanted to give you an update on what we are doing in D.C. and in Maine this year.

My first priority is to be accessible to you and to our communities, which is why I have opened offices throughout the Second District at the following locations:

Caribou Office: 7 Hatch Drive, Suite 230, Caribou ME 04736. Phone: 207) 492-6009  Lewiston Office: 179 Lisbon Street, Lewiston ME 04240. Phone: (207) 241-6767  Bangor Office: 6 State Street, Bangor ME 04401. Phone: (207) 249-7400

My team and I are here to serve you, so please come meet my staff, voice an opinion, inform us of local events, or seek assistance with federal benefits. I come home to Maine every weekend to hear from you and see what’s happening in our communities. I appreciate you keeping us informed.

This year, I was proud to be appointed to the House Armed Services and Small Business Committees. On Armed Services, I’m using my experience serving in Iraq and Afghanistan to make sure our servicemembers have the resources and training they need to succeed and keep us safe. Within Armed Services, I was assigned to the Seapower Subcommittee, where I am fighting for our shipyard jobs and making sure our military can count on Bath-built ships for generations to come. Beyond Bath, I will advocate for the entire network of good Maine jobs that support our troops, equipping them to carry out their duties reliably and safely.

Maine would just not be the same without our small, family-owned businesses. On the Small Business Committee, I am working to ensure our small businesses have the tools to grow, look out for their workers, and provide more good jobs to people all over Maine. Within the Small Business Committee, I was honored to be appointed Chairman of the Subcommittee on Contracting and Infrastructure. With this position, I am highlighting the need for infrastructure investment and fighting to level the playing field when small businesses compete for federal contracts.

One thing I love about Maine is that we help each other out. Whether it’s ensuring a job well done or lending a hand to a neighbor, I know you are strengthening our communities every day. I am proud to serve alongside you and look forward to all that we will accomplish together.

My wife Isobel and I wish you and your family happiness, health, and success in the year to come.

Sincerely,

Jared Golden Member of Congress

Paul T. Davis, Sr. 130th MAINE SENATE 3 State House Station Senator, District 4 Augusta, ME 04333

A message from Senator Paul T. Davis, Sr.

Dear Friends and Neighbors:

Let me begin by thanking you for allowing me the honor of serving you in the Maine Senate. I am grateful that you have put your trust in me and can assure you I will continue to work tirelessly on your behalf.

As you are no doubt aware, Maine is in the midst of the one of its greatest difficulties, both in public health and economic downturn. The 130th Maine Legislature faces the challenge posed by a $1.4 billion budget shortfall, and perhaps more than ever before, state government must learn to live within its means.

As we move through the Legislative session I will be mindful of this and will do my best to hold the line on any new taxes or unneeded borrowing. Like you and your family, state government must tighten its belt in slow economic times and make the difficult, but necessary decisions that will allow us to weather the storm.

At the same time, it is very important that we restore a sense of balance in state government where both the Governor and the Legislature work together on behalf of you, our constituents. This is even more important given the unusual nature of how and where this Legislature will meet, given the safety considerations required by the global pandemic. However the legislative process plays out, it is imperative that the public continue to have access to and play a critical role in the work of the Legislature. These will be a few of my priorities this coming year.

In addition to being before various committees as I present legislation, I will be serving on the Legislature’s Appropriations and Financial Affairs committee, which deals directly with the state budget.

Again, thank you for electing me to serve you in the State Senate. The 130th Legislature certainly has a great deal of work to do, but I believe that if we come together, there is nothing we can’t accomplish. Please feel free to contact me at 287-1505 or [email protected] if you have comments, questions or if you would like assistance in navigating our state’s bureaucracy.

Sincerely,

Paul T. Davis, Sr. State Senator

Dear Friends and Neighbors,

It has been an honor to serve as your Representative in the 129th Maine State Legislature. This is a weighty responsibility that is made more difficult by the shear number of bills that we work through.

On January 8th, 2020, the Legislature came back in to begin the second half of the regular session which is supposed to be the time where we only take up bills considered to be emergency legislation. Again, I was a bit stunned that over 100 bills were deemed to be “emergencies”. As we work through them, we must seek solutions that use taxpayer monies wisely. We must prioritize and protect both the taxpayer and those most in need of support.

I serve on the Joint Standing Committee on Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, and I am the Republican House Lead on the committee. We cannot take our hunting and fishing heritage and opportunities for granted!

One of the most rewarding components of this job is being able to help constituents when they get bogged down at- tempting to navigate the bureaucracy of various government programs and agencies. Feel free to contact me if I can be of assistance in any way. The best way to contact me is via e-mail, at [email protected], or by cell phone which is 207-343-2615.

We do a weekly State News Update via e-mail which many people find to be useful for learning about state issues that effect their personal and business lives. I would love to add you to the newsletter list if you would provide me with your e-mail address. I believe that you would find the material to be of value, of course you may unsubscribe at any time.

Thank you again for allowing me the honor of representing you in Augusta!

Sincerely,

Paul A. Stearns State Representative

TOWN MANAGER’S REPORT

So, we have completed our first year together. I feel the experience was outstanding and look to build on what we have accomplished.

My first summer as your Town manager was a time of learning about the municipal employees and their positions. I utilized my time reviewing tasks related to my position and I was lucky to meet many folks of Greenville. I learned about each department and while working with our Select Board and each department head; we tackled some important tasks including wages, equipment and staffing to mention a few.

We experienced several open positions, one being the Code Enforcement Officer. Jack Hart really stepped up for us; coming out of retirement (again) to work as our Code Enforcement Officer. I appreciate his flexibility, dedication to the town and for his mentoring. We also hired a new clerk, Holly Daniels; she is a face you may recognize. She has proven to be a quick learner and helpful in many ways.

I feel as though we have a team of dedicated employees who serve the Town of Greenville and continue to provide outstanding service to the Moosehead Lake region. Our Select Board has been supportive and open to new ideas and different ways of doing things; keeping in mind the needs of the town, including the town budget. The FY20-21 budget meetings went rather smoothly with the help of the budget committee and the town Financial Manager/ accountant. With this budget process we were able to combine line items, add and delete items; basically simplify the budget. Everyone involved in the new Budget process agreed; this year’s budget went very well, even with the delays due to Covid-19. The end result was reducing several departments, it also included one (1) road/street bonds so we can begin reconstruction of our town streets while keeping the mil rate flat.

Covid-19 introduced itself in the spring of 2020 which created changes in all our lives There were many concerns and unknowns about this virus. As we began to see an influx of seasonal residents coming to town earlier than usual and new people as well, I put together a group of key people and formed The Greenville Response Team. This team included members from the Police and Fire Departments, Hospital, Ambulance, School, County Officials, Select Board and local business owners who would have information on necessities needed by the citizens of Greenville. We met weekly via conference call and communicated any updates pertaining to Greenville’s food and prescription supply chains, the school, and hospital. Having zero cases in town we decided to suspend the calls and revisit if needed in the future. Please know; this team put the community members first, setting up a Covid-19 action plan. Our Fire Chief created a Duty Officer schedule, assigning a point of contact for each day of the month. We had volunteers from the public to assist those unable or not wanting to leave their home for groceries. Our police department was ready to assist with prescription deliveries and our local American Legion with food.

As we look forward to FY20-21; we will see some street reconstruction taking place around town. We will continue to focus on running the business and serving the Moosehead Lake areas. We hope to see another busy summer for our local businesses and I suspect we will see more growth for Greenville as well.

In closing I want to recognize our Municipal employees for their continued dedication to the Town of Greenville. I appreciate what they do each day to help make Greenville a great place to live, work and play.

Take care,

Mike Roy Town Manager

He is a dedicated employee; always ready to help, receiving calls from pilots at all hours of the day & night. He is there when there is a Fuel Farm issue, plowing to be done and maintaining the equipment at any time of the day. The Airport has 14 Based Aircraft; 13- single engine planes and 1 - Multi engine plane. 56% are local general aviation and 44% transient aviation. Annual average of 30 aircraft operations per day.

Our Airport continues to be crucial for Life Flight Operations in the Moosehead Lake Region, we need to continue to support them as a town.

We continue to work with our Airport Engineering firm; DuBois & King to further improve and grow our airport. We have several interested parties seeking Hangars at our Airport, currently all of our properties are in current Leases. The Fuel Farm has been a great success during the fiscal year and we should see increased fuels sales in the future. Below is a snapshot of our fuel expenses and revenues from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020.

Fuel Purchases (expense): $104,138.00 Fuel Sales (revenues): $128,220.00 Profit: $24,082.00

Profit %: 18.8% For FY20, the Airport Fund had an intended budget of $93,944. This was the amount raised and appropriated to be transferred to the Airport Fund in Article 37 of the Town Meeting Warrants for FY20’s budget. The Expenditures were $156,284. While it’s okay for the Airport Fund to be over “budget”; because the fund is not part of the General Fund. This means it’s a Special Revenue Fund (created with Article 38 of the town meeting warrant), it is actually allowed to expend revenues that it receives for their designated purpose.

29 ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

So, in FY20, it received $128,220 in fuel sales, plus $18,101 in lease revenue, plus another $3,285 in miscellaneous revenue. These were in addition to the $93,944 transferred in from the General Fund from taxes raised and an additional $21,285 that it had in an Airport Equipment Reserve that was also transferred from the Gen- eral Fund when the new Airport Fund was created at the beginning of FY20. Thus, it was allowed to expend all of this money, if it needed to – a total of $264,835.

The end result for FY20 was as follows: Total Airport Revenue: $149,606 (fuel sales, leases, and miscellaneous) Transferred in from the General Fund: $115,229 (FY20 appropriation plus the existing reserve balance) Total Airport In-Flows for FY20: $264,835

Total Expenditures: $156,284 (includes $104,138 in fuel purchases) Total Transfers to FAA Grant Fund: $7,999 (town’s 5% match) Total Airport Out-Flows for FY20: $164,283

The Taxes assessed on the Hangar Properties are not part of the Airport Fund revenues; however are part of the General Fund revenues. The total amount of Commercial and Non-Commercial Tax Assessed Hangar Properties (Building value) is $1,569,800.30. Mike Roy Airport Manager

GREENVILLE POLICE DEPARTMENT 07/01/2019—06/30/2020 Greetings, In May of 2020 Police Chief Jeff Pomerleau retired after 10 years serving the citizens of Greenville. In June 2020 I, Jim Carr, was appointed to replace Jeff as the new Chief of Police for the Town of Greenville. I want to thank the Town Manager, Town Selectmen, and all of the citizens of Greenville for the tremen- dous support. I am truly honored to have been given this opportunity and will do my best so that all the citizens in the Town of Greenville can continue to enjoy the relatively crime free, peaceful, quality of life, that we all enjoy here. Mike Favreau was the only other full time Officer in FY 19/20 and has been a great asset to the Town of Greenville. Mike has nearly 40 years of Law Enforcement experience serving the citizens of Maine. Greenville is lucky to have someone with this much knowledge and experience dealing with individuals and who has Police Chief Jim Carr with Town Manager Mike Roy an ability to talk to people that results in a peaceful ending that could have otherwise ended differently. In FY 20/21 We will be filling the full time Police Officer positioned which became vacant after I moved intothe Police Chiefs position. Your local Greenville Police Department provides police service for Greenville, and Beaver Cove, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This coverage is only possible because of the great effort of our Reserve Officers. They fill in the empty shiftsr fo holidays, court days, vacations, and special events such as Fourth of July, and Fly In, which brings thousands of visitors to the area. Greenville, as with the rest of the county and state, continue to struggle with a shortage of Reserve Police Officers. Regardless of this shortage we continue to be able to provide the service that Greenville has come to expect. The reserve Police Officers in Greenville are: Doug Huettner, Tom’ O neill, Jim Emerson, Everard Hayes, Mike Jewett, Nick Clukey, Josh Conroy, and Allen Drew. Greenville is very fortunate to have the quality of reserves that we do as most of these Officer’s reside out of town and almost all have full time jobs, but help out when they are able to. We continue to participate and partner with the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS), in Operation Stone Garden. DHS pays for extra patrols, plus mileage reimbursement, to provide extra coverage on routes leading north and south around Moosehead Lake. Due to the rural nature and remoteness of our area, DHS pays us to act as a secondary safety net to the efforts being conducted at the border, just an hour away. Over the last few years Greenville has seen a large increase in ATV use. To help combat the accompanying complaints Greenville PD has applied for and obtained grants to help with education and enforcement of ATV laws. Hopefully, this will help ensure that everyone has a fun and safe ATV experience in Greenville. Greenville Police Department continues to participate in the drug take back program. Literally thousands of pounds of unwanted and unused prescription drugs have been taken off of our streets. We have a prescription take back box that is located in the lobby at the Town Hall. Unused prescriptions can be dropped off anytime the Town Office is open. Finally, I would like to thank the members of our community who support the Greenville Police Department. Without this support, we would not be able to effectively provide the law enforcement and safety services this town needs. We ask for your help, so that we can help you. If you see, or hear of something suspicious, or know something that may help us protect the community, please call us. This is the only way, which we, as a department can truly be effective on every level. To best serve, we must have community cooperation. The fastest way to contact an officer is to call the Piscataquis County Emergency Communication Center at 207-564-3304 or in the case of emergencies dial 911. Jim Carr Greenville Police Department

GREENVILLE FIRE DEPARTMENT 07/01/2019 – 06/30/2020

The Greenville Fire Department currently has 26 Firefighters and 3 Junior Firefighters who serve the residents of Greenville, the surrounding communities and their guests. Under normal circumstances their dedication is extraordinary. However, watching these fine women and men perform during the pandemic was nothing short of amazing. It makes me proud to be able to say that I work with this group of Firefighters.

The town of Greenville was thrown a unique challenge early this spring with the outbreak of Covid-19. In the early stages of the outbreak, the town was preparing for what may have come. For the months of April and May town staff, CA Dean Hospital personnel, county officials and business leaders formed an Incident Command System. There was an assigned “duty officer” everyday who could be a single source point of contact. In addition, meetings were held twice a week to share information and updates. Fortunately, the Town of Greenville was spared the worst. There were many cities and towns in the state that did not take the proactive approach that Greenville did. This exercise should give residents confidence that in the event of a similar situation or major emergency that the town officials have the professionalism and experience to work together to mitigate the event. In August after a detailed inspection by the Maine Department of Labor the Greenville Fire Department was awarded the SHAPE award (Safety & Health Award for Public Employers). Several aspects of safety are part of this program including record keeping, facility maintenance and cleanliness, minimizing injuries and written safety programs. This award is not easily obtained; since the program’s inception in the late 1990’s there have only been 100 awards granted. A benefit of this award is the fact the Town of Greenville received a discount on the Worker’s Compensation Insurance for the fire department. Because of the department’s commitment to safety, the fire department also received a proclamation from the Maine Legislature. In June of 2019 at the Annual Town Meeting voters approved a Capital Improvement Plan. Included in this plan were funds for the fire department to replace apparatus as well as purchase a“command vehicle”. The command vehicle is a 2020 Ford F-350 pick-up truck. The vehicle is equipped with state-of-the-art communica- tions which is essential to firefighter safety on the incident ground. The department rotates through a duty officer schedule. The assigned duty officer uses the command vehicle. This ensures that there is somebody available for immediate response to an incident 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The fire department has formed a truck committee that is currently working through the specifications of a new rescue pumper. This truck will hopefully be delivered in the late summer of 2021. The remaining apparatus continues to be maintained, serviced and inspected to ensure it is in the optimum condition for emergency response.

At approximately 53 years old, the fire station continues to serve its purpose. This past year a much-needed entrance door and electronic lock system were replaced. Seeing the need to evaluate the life expectancy of the building, the Board of Selectman along with the Budget Committee, agreed that action is required. Over the next few years funds are being set aside to have a consultant determine the viability of the station and its location. In FY 2022 enough funds will have been accrued to conduct the study.

32 ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

Nationwide the number of volunteer firefighters is dwindling at a rapid rate. We are fortunate that we have a full complement of personnel to staff our apparatus and answer emergency calls. There continues tobe certain times of the day that are problematic for emergency response. I will continue to update the Town Manager and Board of Selectmen on the situation. We are very lucky that many of our department members work in Greenville proper. The employers who employ our members are generous enough to let the firefighters leave work and respond to calls. Thank you to these local businesses. After several months of committee work, it was determined that the Town of Greenville would benefit from a combined position of Code Enforcement Officer / Fire Chief. With the support of the Board of Selectman and the Budget Committee, funding for this position was placed on the warrant. At the Annual Town Meeting the voter’s approved this position. The Board of Selectman are currently awaiting the recommendation of a hiring committee to staff this position. In addition to being members of the Greenville Fire Department, personnel also belong to the Greenville Firefighter’s Association. The Greenville Firefighter’s Association raises funds to improve the quality of life of its members as well as community members. Funds are used to assist those who have suffered a hardship or are in distress. Monies are also used to purchase equipment that could not be obtained with fire department funds.

Father Aaron Damboise still serves as the Chaplain for both the Greenville Police Department and Greenville Fire Department. Father Damboise offers his time to both department members and community members who are in need of assistance. Maintaining the apparatus and equipment takes several hours each year. This year, members of the Greenville Fire Department expended 469 hours performing maintenance. Training continues to be important to ensure response readiness and to hone skills. This year a total of 263 hours were dedicated to training.

Last year continued to be a busy year for emergency responses. In total, 811 hours were committed to mitigating 90 emergency incidents. A detailed breakdown is provided later in this report. The Greenville Firefighters Association would like to thank of all the businesses and community members who have generously donated monies to support the association and its efforts. There are no tax dollars expended on the association, making donations essential to its mission. Due to the support that the Greenville Fire Department receives from the residents of Greenville and the surrounding communities, we are afforded safe and modern equipment which allows us to carry out our mission. The members of the department truly appreciate your support. If at any time you have questions regarding the Greenville Fire Department, please feel free to reach out to me.

Respectfully submitted, Matthew E. St.Laurent Chief of Department

AMBULANCE SERVICE ANNUAL REPORT 2019—2020

To the Citizens and Officials of the Town of Greenville:

Over the past year you may have noticed our new look, Eastern Maine Health Care Systems has recently gone through a system rebranding process. A new name, a new logo, along with providing the same exceptional service. Northern Light CA. Dean Ambulance Service is continuing, as always, in its efforts to meet the growing demand of emergency calls in the Greenville area and Moosehead communities. In conclusion to one of our busiest times of the year we saw an above average snowfall this past winter with the usual frigid temper- atures; unfortunately, we also saw a considerable amount of trauma related events during this snowmobile season. C.A. Dean Ambulance responded to a total of 233 emergency 911 calls with 14 snowmobile related accidents from North of Rockwood to South of Shirley this past year. Patient care was delivered to over 450 calls throughout the previous year. Among our many other day to day emergency responses we continue to improve the health and wellbeing of our Maine residents as we are committed to supporting the community’s needs. We are continually trying to expand and strengthen our Emergency Medical Services to accom- modate the growing needs for service. Our EMS roster is currently operating with Seven Paramedics, Six EMT -Advanced, Two EMT-Basics and Three Ambulance Drivers. As always, our deepest appreciation goes out to all of the services that we have had the pleasure of working with on a regular basis: Greenville Fire & Rescue, Monson Fire & Rescue, Rockwood Fire & Rescue, Greenville Police Department, Piscataquis and Somerset County Sheriff’s offices, Life Flight of Maine, Mayo Regional Hospital and Ambulance Services, Maine Forest Service, Piscataquis County EMA, The Appalachian Mountain Club, DEEMI Search & Rescue, the Greenville Snowmobile Club and last but certainly not least, the Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Services. These folks all do a remarkable job and it is our privilege to work side by side with each and every one of these services on a daily basis to strengthen the Moosehead Lake Region community. This has been a busy year as always for our EMS staff with continuing education, training and- re certification of professional licenses. EMS crew members have again attended the annual Mid Coast EMS Conference and have furthered their education with countless hours of continuing education in the ever-changing world of emergency medicine. We continue to work closely with the surrounding departments expanding our training and knowledge to further better the outcomes of emergency situations. The State of Maine EMS has continued with CA Dean Ambulance in a nationwide effort to expand the Community Paramedicine Program to patients of Greenville and the surrounding areas. The Community Paramedic Program addresses bridging the gaps of patient’s personal health care needs by working closely with patients and their primary care physi- cians within a home-based setting. The Community Paramedicine project has been steadily growing with its mission to improve the health status of patients in the Moosehead Lake Region by supporting unmet health needs in our rural area. Northern Light C.A. Dean has again been able to make many significant improvements and upgrades to our ambulance equipment over this past year. Recently we have added another ambulance to our fleet, a Ford Transit Van type ambulance which will be used for patient transports. This new style of ambulance will greatly improve the comfort of our patient over the northern Maine bumpy roads, these upgrades will greatly improve patient care and our response in the community.

34 ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

We were thrusted into the first worldwide pandemic of our lifetime and the COVID-19 virus still has a hold over our communities. NL CA Dean has been vigilant to follow National CDC guidelines and we strongly advise that the general public also follows these procedures. There is an abundance of misleading information that has been spread through our many media outlets. Please contact your Primary Care Provider and research information from the National CDC website for any questions you may have. Please continue to wear a face- mask, wash your hands and socially distance. Vaccines for COVID-19 are on the verge of approval and will even- tually slow the spread of this disease. On behalf of the Northern Light C.A. Dean Ambulance Crew, I would like to take this opportunity to thank our Medical Staff, Darin Peck, Md. Paul Potvin, Md. Joe Babbit, Md. Karl Liebermann, Md. Peter McLaughlin, Md. Gail Lamb, Md. Christopher Canto, DO. Scott McLaughlin, Md. Robert Bowie, Md. Galen Durose, Md. Anna Babiarz, PA-C. Jaime Knowlton, PA-C. Lucas Knowlton, PA-C.

Lorraine Rodgerson, VP of Nursing & Operations, Megan Ryder, Director of Physician Practices, Jennifer Goodrich, VP of Finance & Physi- cian Practices, Marie Vienneau, President, the entire Nursing Staff and all of the Charles A. Dean employees for their dedication and support. We have an incredible medical team here at C.A. Dean Hospital and are very fortunate to have these providers in our community. We would also like to extend our gratitude to the entire Moosehead Lake Community for their continuous support. I would like to personally thank all of our EMS responders for their diligent work and dedication to this community. If you see any of these people, please thank them for their service.

Shaw Public Library Annual Report July 2019—June 2020

The Shaw Public Library has had an eventful year. The year began as usual. We hosted our summer discussion program through the Maine Humanities Council and a book club. Our children’s department also hosted a va- riety of programs during the summer of 2019. We had over 400 people attend library programs. We had a good year for circulation with nearly 11,000 items circulated. We had over 4000 visitors to the library. We added 900 items to the collection including, books, DVDs and magazines. Shaw library is also a member of the Balsam Library consortium. This allows our patrons access to materials from other libraries. Balsam received a grant from the National Library of Medicine to offer free access to MedlinePlus for our patrons. More information can be found on Balsam’s website. The library also received a grant from the Rudman Foundation to purchase books on Maine’s history in celebra- tion of Maine’s Bicentennial this year.

Linda Wohlforth retired after many years of service in July. An article appeared in Moosehead Matters highlighting her career here at Shaw. We also welcomed Laura Nederhoff as new director. March, April and May brought many new challenges for the library. We were forced to close completely to the public for several months reopening in a limited way in June. We have put many measures in place to protect both staff and patrons using the library. We offer digital access to audio and- e books through CloudLibrary that has been helpful to patrons while the library building was closed. We have been quarantining books for several days to make them safe to handle. We also have lots of hand sanitizer and gloves available for patron and staff use. We look forward to seeing you at the library!

To the Citizens of Greenville:

I am very pleased to be working for the Greenville School system once again. As a resident of Greenville and an alumna of the school, I am very proud of the six years I spent as the Principal, and now in my current role as the Superintendent.

With the new year, public schools in Maine are tasked with developing their budgets. The school finance committee works dili- gently to put forward a budget that provides quality programming while making every effort to be fiscally responsible to our community. Finance meetings will be posted on our website and we welcome the citizens of Greenville to attend these public meetings.

A small portion of the Greenville School revenue comes from the States Essential Programs and Services (EPS) Funding through the General-Purpose Aid Subsidy (ED 279). The EPS funding formula calculates the cost share of PreK-12 education between the State and Local communities. Greenville is considered a minimal receiver due to our high property valuation. We do receive allocations for special education, transportation, economically disadvantage student population and for being considered an isolated small school. For the 2020-2021school year the local share was 84.80% and the state share was 15.20%. However, we require additional funds above the EPS funding formula to run the school, resulting in the state share covering approximately 8% of the 2020-2021 budget. We will not know the estimated amount of our subsidy for the 2021-2022 school year until some- time in February. We do know that our student enrollment, special education numbers and economically disadvantaged student population have decreased, and this could have an impact on our State subsidy.

The 2020-2021 school year has been challenging due to the pandemic. We have incurred increased costs for PPE, sanitation supplies, remote learning materials, staffing needs and technology supports. Fortunately, we received significant grant funding from the State and Federal Government to help cover these costs.

We all love our school building with its classic architecture. However, it is an aging building requiring on-going maintenance and upgrades to stay current with increasing technology demands on the infra-structure that were not an issue when the school was built. Our Facilities Committee continues to assess these needs and develop plans for maintaining this building and our gymnasi- um.

While we grapple with the increasing costs of maintaining our facilities and providing high quality education to our students, many good things are happening at Greenville Consolidate Schools. Our staff, students and families have pulled together to meet the DOE and CDS requirements necessary to continue with in-person education for our students. Research substantiates that for the majority of students, their academic, social and emotional wellness are best met in an in-person educational setting.

On behalf of the School Committee and the school community; I would like to thank the Greenville citizens for all of the support they give to our school. Working together we can continue to meet the educational needs of all students and prepare them to be successful citizens in a rapidly changing world.

Respectfully,

Kelly MacFadyen Superintendent of Schools

MOOSEHEAD HISTORICAL SOCIETY & MUSEUMS

Every year we have a theme to our exhibits. For the Town’s fiscal year 2019-2020, it was “Treasures in Our Own Backyard.” It turned out to be all kinds of fun for us and a return of very high compliments from visitors around the globe. Visitors called us the treasure! We were also called the best small town museum in New England. Who knew? It’s something we can all be proud of and we hope to continually live up to into the future. Many residents stopped in to see what we had going, to attend a program, talk about family history, or to research in the Historical Society’s extensive files. It’s gratifying to see people using all that we hold for safe- keeping here. If you have family or a business with papers, stories, or items that you want saved as part of Moosehead’s story, please bring it in! They will be put to good use. We are always looking to provide the best programs and photographs about our heritage. As part of “Treasures” we celebrated Maynard’s-In-Maine’s 100th year in family business. An important addition was the opening of the new Moosehead Outdoor Heritage Museum, which proves to be extremely popular, and a great educational component for the visiting public. We could not have done it without the backing of the community. Of continued high interest is the Moosehead Lumbermen’s Museum and the B-52 Crash story, with a permanent room all of its own in the Moosehead Aviation Museum, in The Center for Moosehead History. As part of the 13th Annual Thoreau Wabanaki Festival, we also hosted a day long workshop for teachers and other educators to learn first-hand about Maine Native American history and Moosehead families, also on permanent display in The Center for Moosehead History. Again, it was gratifying to hear it called the best conference of its kind at the annual meeting of the Maine Archives & Museums last fall. It means we’re doing good work. The Historical Society has one of the largest collections of Native tools in the state, which has caught quite a bit of attention, and is very good for our region. We will continue leading this work, including in professional association with the Penobscot Nation, which has many family ties to the area. Overall, we entertained and informed some 2,000 travelers about the Moosehead Lake Region. The Historical Society & Museums offered 17 programs throughout the summer and fall — from the “First Timber Speculators” to the popular “All About Moose,” “Penobscot Sense of Place” to a photo retrospective “Greenville Village.” We helped uncover some mysteries. We keep telling the stories of our great settlers, from Shaw and Crafts to the Sawyers and Oakes. We help with many kinds of research questions. Our docents, staff, and their knowledge are highly regarded, keep things fresh and exciting.

In quiet hours, we always return to our Mission: To document the history of the Moosehead Lake Region, its people and its watershed, past and present; to further the interest in our history; and to devote our resources to the discovery, identification, collection, preservation, interpretation, and sharing of materials for the foregoing purposes. - Suzanne AuClair, MHS Executive Director 41 ANNUAL REPORT 2019-2020

Landfill Closure Financial Assurance & Local Government Means Test

The Maine Department of Environmental Protection requires that municipalities utilize a financial assurance mechanism to demonstrate our ability to meet these on-going post-closure cost for our landfill. The Town does so thorough the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Local Government Financial Test, as calculated below:

The following tests are based on General Fund audited figures.

TEST 1: Cash balance is 5% or more than annual expenditures. FY19 Ending Cash Balance: $2,172,528 FY19 Expenditures: $7,163,462 Cash as a % of Expenditures: 30.3% Test 1 Passed

TEST 2: Annual debt service is 20% or lower than annual expenditures. FY19 Debt Service - $407,195 FY19 Expenditures: $7,163,462 Debt Service as a % of expenditures: 5.7% Test 2 Passed

TEST 3: Annual post-closure costs are 43% or less of annual revenues. FY19 Post-closure Costs: $8,658 FY19 Revenues: $7,445,119 Post-closure costs as a % of revenues: 0.1% Test 3 Passed

Test 4: Town does not operate at a deficit of 5% or more of revenues for the last two years. FY18 Deficit: $22,706 FY18 Revenues: $6,996,817 FY18 deficit as a % of revenue: 0.3%

FY19 Deficit: $24,515 FY19 Revenues: $7,445,119 FY19 deficit as a % of revenues: 0.3% Test 4 Passed

Therefore, the town of Greenville meets the EPA’s Local Government Financial Test for Landfill Closure and Post-Closure Expenses. The Town does not use this financial assurance mechanism to meet any other obliga- tions.
