First off, I would like to extend the Board’s thanks to our staff, employ- ees, committee members and volunteers who continue to serve the municipal- ity and make the Town run. This past year brought us the first ever referendum ballot budget vote which moved us away from the annual town meeting and provided the opportunity for over 1,200 voters to approve the FY2019 municipal budget. In comparison, more people voted on this budget than all of the voters combined that attend- ed the past ten town meetings. Very encouraging that 1,200 voters took part in this process verses the 60 or 70 that typically attended June town meetings. We continue to work towards implementing the vision of the Comprehensive Plan adopted in June of 2015. The Planning Board has accomplished much with still a lot on their plate and the Select Board has appointed a multi-interest committee to look at a future community center which was one of the long term recommendations from the 20/20 Comprehensive Plan Committee. This is a journey that the Town has embarked on that will impact what our community looks and feels like for many years to come. As always, the Board continues to work with the Town Administrator to im- prove municipal service with an eye towards developing more efficient ways of utilizing our limited resources. With many of the mandates and reduction in funding coming down from state government, this will always be a challenge. The Board’s priorities continue to focus on developing solutions that will meet and address each new challenge as it surfaces. We are committed to increas- ing the transparency of town government and will continue to take steps to improve communications with the public, our employees, departments and committee’s throughout the future. Respectfully submitted, Dennis Abbott Dennis Abbott, Chairman Waterboro Board of Selectmen DENNIS ABBOTT CHAIR, WATERBORO SELECTMEN 4 Town of Waterboro • Annual Report Town Administrator Report for July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018 Fiscal year 17/18 was my fifth year as your Town Administrator. The year started on a somber business note when a fast moving fire destroyed Plummer’s Hardware, Asian Taste restaurant and our Family Dollar store on July 16, 2017. We were fortunate no one was hurt but the building was a total loss. After the fire, town staff and Selectmen started a discussion with our water district on possible locations for a new second water storage tower to improve our firefighting capabilities. In August our Public Works Director was changed to a full time position. Applications were col- lected, interviews were held and Dave Benton was the unanimous choice to replace Doug Foglio who wanted more time for his family business. I want to thank Doug for all the advice and help he gave me and the town during the many years he and his family have helped keep Waterboro’s roads safe for winter drivers.
