It was a short time later in February of 1976 that he became a permanent member of Acton’s career Fire Department. In 1994 Bob was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant, 1998 he attained the rank of Captain and the rank of Deputy Fire Chief in February 2017. Deputy Vanderhoof retired on March 31, 2020. Deputy Vanderhoof has offered a variety of contributions to the Town of Acton over the course of his 44 years of service to the Acton Fire Department. The many tasks and responsibilities of a fire department can only be accomplished through the shared effort of its members. There may not be another member who has been more involved or influenced as many as Bob. Deputy Vanderhoof was engaged in the training of new and experienced firefighters, developing and overseeing emergency dispatching, the purchase, and repair of communication equipment, and held many key positions in the union including President, and the introduction of computer-based technology in our emergency services. It was Bob that established the annual Open House held in October, which introduces the public to fire operations and emergency medical services as well as live demonstrations in conjunction with Octoberfest held in West Acton. There was a time when Bob helped organize the collection of lightly used toys for the less fortunate. His sense of duty to the Fire Department was and is equally matched to his sense of community. Along with being a member of the Fire Department, he is also a father, husband, and an Acton resident. Beyond his career, he has raised three children in Acton; Lisa, Laura, and Thomas they have made him a proud grandfather three times. He is happily married to his wife Linda, meticulously maintains a beautiful home in Acton, and enjoys time in New Hampshire and Florida. Deputy Vanderhoof offers a professional example to his subordinates, both in appearance and behavior. He has always been a man of the community and a positive example for this Department. He has made the Acton Fire Department and the Town proud of his character and ability to lead exceptional firefighters/EMT-P. We wish Bob well in his retirement! 3 ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES BOARD OF SELECTMEN building, renovation, and/or expansion. • Determine a preferred use for the Morrison Every year brings a new challenge for the Board of Farmhouse.

  • 2013-2014 Legislative Scorecard
    Legislative Scorecard Votes and Leadership 2013-14 LEGISLATIVE SESSION - 1 - This is the inaugural edition of the Environmental League of Massachusetts legislative scorecard. We produced this scorecard to inform citizens about how their legislators voted on important environmental issues. We are pleased and grateful for the support of so many environmental leaders in the legislature. The scorecard relies first on roll call votes on legislation that deals with environmental and energy issues. Because there are so few roll call votes each session—and often these votes are unanimous—we have scored additional actions by legislators to further distinguish environmental champions. Bonus points were awarded to legislators who introduced bills that were ELM priorities or who introduced important amendments, particularly budget amendments to increase funding for state environmental agencies. In addition, we subtracted points for legislators who introduced legislation or amendments that we opposed. We want to recognize leadership and courage, in addition to votes, and have made every attempt to be fair and transparent in our scoring. Much happens during the legislative process that is impractical to score such as committee redrafts, committee votes to move or hold a bill, and measures that would improve flawed legislation. We have not attempted to include these actions, but we recognize that they greatly influence the process and outcomes. None of the bills or amendments scored here should be a surprise to legislators in terms of ELM’s support or opposition. Going forward, ELM will include votes and other actions that support additional revenues for transportation and promote transit, walking and biking. George Bachrach, President Erica Mattison, Legislative Director Highlights of the Session projects.

Report of the Moderator James R. Repetti It was quite a year! I postponed the 2020 Annual Town Meeting, originally scheduled for May 4, three times due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. A truncated meeting was finally held outdoors on June 29 at 11 a.m. on the Regional School football field. We considered and voted only upon articles that the Board of Selectmen had determined as being essential to the ongoing operation of the Town. The meeting was adjourned at 11:19 a.m., moments before a major thunderstorm occurred. Many citizens and friends of Dover helped plan and implement the meeting in a manner designed to reduce the risk for attendees. We are very grateful to Dr. Kevin Ban, a resident of Dover, Dr. John Brownstein, an epidemiologist at Harvard Medical School, and the Board of Health for their advice in helping us structure the meeting to minimize the health risk for all attendees. Town Clerk Felicia Hoffman coordinated and implemented their advice in an exemplary manner to ensure safe social distancing for all attendees and those working at the meeting. In addition, Assistant Moderator David Haviland, Police Chief Peter McGowan, and all the con- stables, checkers, counters, pages, registrars, and police officers provided invaluable service in assuring the safety of all attendees.
