THE VISITING NURSES

who served the Townspeople as early as 1916. Over the years, they have provided various and sundry health care, continued to provide skilled nursing care and a word of cheer to the sick who were housebound, conducted flu clinics and blood pressure clinics, and in earlier years were the school nurses.

Among the dedicated Visiting Nurses, past and present, we honor are Ruby Erwin, Madeleine Harding, Honey Whitney and Marilyn Whelan. FACTS ABOUT MEDFIELD

20 DEPARTMENTAL REPORTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1985

21 BOARD OF SELECTMEN

To the Residents of Medfield:

The Town continues to grow gracefully with more renovated buildings lining our Main Street and business district, while orderly growth continues throughout the Town.

1985 brought many major matters to the fore among which were increased insurance costs, final disposition of former St. Edward's Church, Cable TV installations, Medfield State Hospital programs, earth removal projects and study of South Street Extension.

Selectman Larkin was absent from our January 22nd meeting when he attended the Presidential Inaugural of Ronald Reagan, at the invitation of Congressman Barney Frank. It was indeed an honor for Selectman Larkin and the Town.

PERAMBULATION

One of our more pleasant duties is to perambulate the Town bounds with our neighbor Selectmen which is required every five years. On October 19th we met with representatives of Millis, Norfolk, Dover and Walpole and found all bounds to be in the positions designated. The Selectmen of the Town of Sherborn advised they would perambulate on their own and will send us a report.

NEW JURY SYSTEM

Since the early beginnings of Medfield and the court system in Norfolk County, it has been the duty of the Selectmen to annually prepare a list of residents as potential jurors and each month the Clerk of the Board drew the names of those who would serve. The last jurors to be drawn by the Selectmen were drawn in December. Now every resident 18 and over is eligible to be drawn and when selected will be notified by mail by Norfolk County Superior Court to appear for one day only. One's obligation is over, unless assigned to a jury. This marks the end of another phase of local government.

DISPOSITION OF FORMER ST. EDWARD'S CHURCH

A judgment was received on February 19th that the judgment of the court in the case of Robert J. Shannon vs. Board of Appeals was reversed and a new judgment was entered stating that the Board of Appeals did not exceed its authority in its decision to deny certain variances. We were advised on March 12th that Mr. Shannon had appealed this judgment to the Supreme Judicial Court; we were notified April 2 that Mr. Shannon's application for further review was denied. Later that month, we were advised Mr. Shannon planned to construct low and moderate income housing on the lot. The purchase and sales agreement expired on April 23, 1982, however. On June 25th we received a temporary restraining order, prohibiting the razing of the building. A complaint was filed to direct the Town to convey the property

. Shannon. Affidavits were presented to the Court from the Fire Chief, detailing fire hazards and the Police Chief, listing safety hazards in op- 22 SELECTMEN LARKIN, SELECTMAN THOMPSON AND SELECTMAN NOURSE

23 position to the motion. On October 1, Town Counsel advised that Mr. Shannon will not appeal the judgment of Superior Court and the Board agreed the Town will not pursue recovery of costs against Mr. Shannon, which was provided in the judgment.

On October 15, old St. Edward's was demolished. The corner stone was given to the new St. Edward the Confessor Church and the crosses were offered to the Baptist Church and new St. Edward's for use on their re- spective churches.

FUTURE USE OF PROPERTY

In October we appointed an ad hoc committee to study the reuse of 458 Main Street and to present recommendations. Early in January the Committee presented its findings which are included separately in this annual report. The Selectmen submitted an application to the Council on Arts for a grant for a landscape architect. Additional funding to create a park and parking spaces behind the Memorial Public Library will be sought at the Annual Town Meeting in 1986.

CABLE TV

A provisional license was granted Massachusetts Cablevision Systems, Inc. on January 31st and a final license granted on August 20th. At year's end, the Town was substantially wired for cable service and the majority of the homes desiring service were on line. Again a committee with a great deal of expertise worked long and hard to provide this new service to the people of Medfield.

MEDFIELD STATE HOSPITAL PROGRAMS

Throughout this year, the Selectmen worked alongside our legislators, many residents and families of patients, known as the Alliance, to prevent a person found innocent of murdering his parents by reason of insanity from being transferred from a medium security facility of the Corrections Depart- ment to the Medfield State Hospital. Our efforts were in vain. It was a frustrating experience to find our opposition and fears for our residents went unheeded.

The Medf ield-Norfolk Prison Project, limited to 36 persons and limited by certain criteria, provided labor for various projects within the community. This work proceeded after a majority vote of the Board in the affirmative and continued in to 1986.

A proposal was heard to increase the prison population to 105.

The future use of the 400+ acres and approximately 45 buildings is unknown at this time. We will continue to work toward being heard and opting for the best for the entire community.

SOUTH STREET RECONSTRUCTION

On March 11th, we received plans drawn by the Norfolk County Engineers; again on May 21st we reviewed the plan with the Bicycle Path Committee. The entire plan shows the construction within the right of way as laid out in 1955 with the exception of Town-owned conservation land. Our primary concern is one of safety. The Committee's aim is to make the center of town accessible to school age children by bicycle. The Bicycle Path Committee would ultimately like to see the bike path continued to Route 27 to Curve 24 :

Street and to continue on a sidewalk on South Street over the railroad tracks to the Ralph Wheelock School (Elm Street). The Selectmen voted to proceed with plans for South Street, showing a 28-foot width and also a bike path and authorized the committee to meet with abutters and to come back with a full report. The South Street Committee's report is included elsewhere in this annual report wherein the majority recommend reconstruction. An article will be on the warrant at the Annual Town Meeting to vote on this important matter.

FEDERAL LEGISLATION

After 1986 we will no longer have federal revenue sharing funds to reduce the Town's overall costs. This funding has been used for many years to reduce insurance costs. The federal government continues to mandate programs, however. The Fair Labor Standards Act was amended so that it now affects municipalities. It becomes effective in April 1986 and will have serious consequences, affecting the manner in which we can use our manpower and man- dating excessive costs of increased rates of overtime pay, while requiring complicated bookkeeping.

INCREASED INSURANCE COSTS

We had difficulty getting a quotation for public official liability insurance, reflecting problems in the insurance industry resulting from excessive awards; and not because of town actions. We were fortunate to purchase a 3-year policy covering the School Department. Our package insurance was in jeopardy when the company at first refused to honor the second year of a 3-year policy. The matter was resolved in the Town's favor. Our automobile insurance costs doubled for this fiscal year even though we had an excellent insurance rating. Our worker's compensation insurance was placed with Massachusetts Inter Local Insurance Company who represents a group of Mass- achusetts municipalities. Group insurance premiums continue to rise also. The future of municipal insurance costs is discouraging to say the least. Although our insurance rating is good, in part because of our local practices, we suffer from the follies of others and must meet these obligations.

REDISTRICTING

A Redistricting and Polling Location Committee was appointed March 26th in accordance with requirements set by the Secretary of State. Under the direction of the Town Clerk, it reported back on September 10, 1985, at which time we voted to accept and approve the local plan, to become effective January 1, 1987. This includes four precincts as follows (a map is included outlining the precincts)

ecinct 1 2650 inhabitants 2 2396 3 2638 4 2646 TOTAL 10330

The average number is 2581. The smallest precinct has the potential for growth because of a development proposal at Main Street at the Dover town line, and on North Street at the former Marcionette-Kingsbury property.

TOWN HALL IMPROVEMENTS

The efficacy of Town Hall was improved with the installation of a new 25 26 state-of-the art telephone system which permits paging, conference calls and the use of speaker phones.

Word processors were utilized for the first time and promise to provide innovative approaches to reduce the volume of paper work required to conduct the day-to-day business of town government.

TRANSFER STATION

We voted to award the bid to Sciaba Construction Company at a cost of $794,200., subject to assignment of the land from the Human Services Administration since 3.76 acres was to be transferred from the Corps of Engineers for this purpose. This was finalized early in 1986.

ELECTIONS

On October 22nd, the Selectmen met with the remaining members of the Park and Recreation Commission and elected Mary Gillis to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Paul Allen; and on December 4th, Mark C. O'Connor was elected to fill the vacancy on the Housing Authority caused by the resignation of William Walsh, both terms to expire at the next election.

HURRICANE GLORIA

On September 27th the Town was brought to a virtual standstill with the onslaught of Gloria. It was the first such emergency in many years. The Town forces, - highway, police, fire, tree and civil defense, worked alongside local Boston Edison crews as well as crews from as far away as Chicago, to bring the power back on line. Certain areas of Town suffered longer than others. We will meet with power line officials who are preparing reports to explain their lines into Medfield and their emergency plan, so that the return of power can be expedited in the future.

TRIBUTES

Laura Huntington Smith was a revered lady in our Town and was greatly missed by her many friends and admirers, following her demise in April. She was well known as a descendent of the early founders of the Town. She gave much to this community during her lifetime as a teacher, historian and librarian as well as contributing to the makeup of our present charter.

John Bradstreet was honored with a plaque presented by the Selectmen commemorating 32 years of public service as a member of the Finance Committee, Planning Board and Conservation Commission.

Ellis N. Allen, Tree Warden resigned after 34 years of service to the Town. A proclamation was issued recognizing his valued service. Ellis, too, was a descendent of the early settlers. His service as Tree Warden followed that of his Grandfather, George L. Allen, which combined totalled 76 years, an enviable record of public service.

In May the Board of Selectmen, town employees and friends paid tribute to Pauline M. Goucher, Administrator Assistant^ f or 25 years of dedicated service to the town. She has worked with 18 different Selectmen and 2 Town Administrators during this period, and has been instrumental in assuring an orderly transition throughout the years. honoring Virginia Kinter upon her In July a proclamation was issued after 15 years of valued servxce. retirement as Deputy Collector of Taxes, 27 On Memorial Day the Town once again displayed its patriotic spirit, carrying on a long standing tradition. The Gettysburg Address was delivered :ss Janet Timmerman, a 7th grader whose delivery made the speech extremely meaningful. The addition of the fife and drum corps and the Mass- achusetts National Lancers made the parade a memorable event for those participating as well as the folks lining the parade route.

The Medfield Day celebration under the auspices of MEMO (Medfield Employers and Merchants Organization) was a great success and a joyful oc- casion which brings our townspeople together. We hope the custom continues. The Christmas Parade is another annual event we look forward to each year. It was an exceptionally wonderful parade this year. Our appreciation is extended to the many townspeople who worked so hard to provide these local events.

We are pleased to report that the 1984 Annual Town Report was awarded third prize by the Massachusetts Selectmen's Association. All who contribute to the report share in this award.

The town boards, officers, employees and volunteers who work together to make Medfield the fine community we call home are commended for taking pride in Medfield and working toward present and future successes.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

Herewith is respectfully submitted my Annual Report for the year ending December 31, 1985.

STREET DEPARTMENT

Resurfacing : Yearly preventative maintenance involved repairing streets by means of grader, patch and the stone seal program. The Highway Department put on 1,784 tons of hot top and 600 tons of stone in 1985.

Drainage : Rocky Lane drainage was started and will be finished in 1986. I wish to thank Barbara Leighton for the drainage easement.

Community Gardens : We had another good year at the gardens. Don't forget to sign up in March for the new year.

Pleasant Street Sidewalk : The sidewalk from Oak Street to Metacomet Park was completed in the Fall of 1985.

Fire Roads : Fire roads were kept clear by the Highway Department and small tree plantings were made.

Tennis Courts : Cracks in the Pleasant Street courts and vandalism to the nets were repaired in the Summer of 1985.

Snow : We had a mild winter with only 11 snowstorms and 27 call-outs for sanding and salting operations. We turned $16,536.50 back to the General Fund. Total accumulation for the year was 3 1% inches.

Landfill : The Highway Department started capping the Phase II area of the Landfill and will continue into 1986. In December we moved into Phase III. It now appears, with the compaction we will get at the Transfer Station, we may get five years of use out of the Landill.

Transfer Station: We broke ground on the new Transfer Station in October 1985 and will be opening in June 1986.

Orchard Street Bridge : In the Summer of 1985 the bridge was open to through traffic after some delays in the construction.

Demolition : Old St. Edward's Church on Main Street was demolished in October by a private contractor. The Highway Department filled in the foundation and hauled the granite foundation back to the Highway Garage.

Hurricane Gloria : Late in September, Medfield experienced its first Hurri- cane since 1955. It started blowing around noontime and peaked around 4- 5 P.M. All roads were cleared for emergency vehicles with at least one lane open by 9:00 P.M. of the same day. Unfortunately, some people lost electricity for 5 days. The debris removal following the storm took the Highway Department 6 weeks. 30 LANDFILL REACHES ITS LIMIT WHILE TRANSFER STATION IS UNDERWAY

31 SEWER DEPARTMENT

The Treatment plant is now 10 years old and major overhauls of return pumps showed the age.

Composting ; This summer the Highway Department build a composting pad for the sludge at the Treatment Plant. The operators at the Treatment Plant immediately started the new process. The composted material will be used as fertilizer at the Landfill for the final cover.

State Hospital Tie-in : On December 10th the State Hospital came on line at the rate of 90,000 gallons per day. This will add approximately $68,000 in revenue to the Town.

Dover Septage ; Treatment of Dover septage will add approximately $28,000 in revenue.

WATER DEPARTMENT

In 1985 the Water Department installed 66 new services. According to our pumping records we pumped 267,750,000 gallons from 4 wells. The well ex- ploration has been narrowed down to a well site on the North side of Town on State Hospital property. Test results will not be ready until 1986. Complaints of rusty water during 1985 on Bridge Street have prompted an article in the Town Meeting of 1986.

We have had both a good year and a bad year; the latter marked by a severe accident to John D. Williams, member of the Water and Sewerage Board since 1947. The accident has hospitalized Jack since August of this year. The prognosis is not encouraging, but we are ever hopeful that he will improve. Jack's contributions and dedication to the Town of Medfield are greatly missed.

In conclusion, appreciation is expressed to Frances Brennan, Gertrude Simpson and Nancy Franke, secretaries whose work contributes to the successful operation of the several departments.

Robert Kennedy, Street Department Foreman; Charles Evans, Water and Sewer Foreman, and Peter Iafolla, Chief Operator of the Treatment Plant, and all the men of the various departments are commended for their excellent public service.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The South Street Committee was appointed in July, 1985, to consider the South Street woadway reconstruction plan and make recommendations for Town Meeting action. The plan to be considered was that proposed in 1955 and amended from time to time, the most recent amendment being by the Norfolk County Engineer's office earlier in 1985.

The South Street Committee studied the plan, met with practically each and every abutter, met with the County Engineer and the Town Planning Board, and submitted its recommendations and comments in January 1986.

A majority of four members recommended proceeding with design and construction of an improvement project to reconstruct a wider, straighter, roadway with a sidewalk, curbs, and proper drainage, all built to Town standards. The recommendation included ensuring maximum sensitivity to aesthetics and protection of abutting property consistent with safety. Safety was the over- riding issue with the majority, citing heavy traffic volume, poor lines of sight, inadequate width, poor drainage, no shoulders, and a high accident rate.

The minority recommendation was to preserve the roadway as it exists, rather than widen and rebuild it. The fear of increased speed and the desire to maintain the character of the roadway were cited as key factors.

M COMMITTEE FOR THE RE-USE OF 458 MAIN STREET

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The following contains our recommendations for Re-use of the former St. Edward's Church Property and design criteria.

GENERAL STATEMENT

The property at 458 Main Street offers the town the unique opportunity to coordinate the Library, the Historical Society Building, the abutting properties, and the Town Hall into an aesthetically pleasing site. It is recommended that a professional landscape architect be retained by the town to provide a design consistent with the design criteria suggested in this report.

RECOMMENDATION FOR RE-USE

Based on opinions expressed by town residents, town Boards and through surveys, the consensus emerged that the property should be devoted largely to green space attractively and appropriately designed for use by the community. A desire for limited parking for municipal and library purposes was also expressed. Such limited parking would offer space for the handicapped, the library staff, library patrons, and the Historical Society. A sign at the entrance to the parking area should specify this area's purpose.

DESIGN CRITERIA

The overall design should be in keeping with the surrounding buildings and the "textures" used in the area in front of the Town Hall. Any structure or item placed in the park should be designed for permanence. Special needs or problems of the handicapped should be addressed.

1. Parking

A. The Committee recommends that the area between the library and the Historical Society and the area directly behind the Historical Society be designated for parking.

B. One space should be reserved for handicapped.

C. A sign specifying the area's purpose should be erected at the entrance.

D. Landscaping should be used around the parking area to soften the impact of the hardtop.

2. Landscape Materials

A. There should be an aesthetically pleasing combination of flowering and shade trees, flowering and evergreen shrubs, grass, and bark mulch where appropriate. The two dogwood trees in the front of the property and any other trees on the periphery of the property should be saved. 35 .

area B. Placement of the landscape materials should be such that the v mowing equipment used by the town. can |, ( the

Buffer Zones should be placed where appropriate between abutters and attractive the town property for lighting, noise and visual purposes. An the property fence with landscaping in front of it should be placed around property. t where walkways enter the

D. Access to water throughout the area is a necessity.

3. Gazebo recommendation Based on opinions expressed at public meetings, it is the used as the focal of this committee that a gazebo of appropriate size be consistent with sur- point of the green area. It should be aesthetically A rounding structures, be accessible to the handicapped, and be lighted. considered. brick patio area with benches around the gazebo should also be

alkways

A. Should be made of brick (City Hall Pavers as used in front of the Town Hall), laid in sand, and maintained with stone dust.

B. Should give access to the property and buildings there-on from Main Street, Pleasant Street and Lord's parking lot following the anticipated natural pedestrian flow.

5. Lighting

A. The area must be well enough lighted to make it safe. All lighting should take into consideration encroachment on the abutters.

B. Pole lights similar to those in front of the Town Hall (New Orleans Gas Lights which have particular significance in Medfield's history) should be used wherever possible to provide lighting.

C. Auxiliary lighting should consist of spotlights and/or inconspicuous ground lighting along the walkways.

6. Benches should be placed where appropriate.

7. Attractive trash receptacles should be placed where necessary.

8. Granite Berms should be used where appropriate.

9. The 3 outside ground air conditioning units belonging to the library should be hidden from view by landscaping.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

1 Placques

It is recommended that an appropriate plaque be placed in the park commemorating all war veterans and one which designates the historical significance of this site.

2. Name for the Park

Two names were recommended: Heritage Memorial Park and Medfield Memorial 36 Park. This committee suggests a town contest to name the park.

3. Funding

A. Memorial gifts and other contributions should be solicited from private citizens and civic and service organizations for landscaping and other items.

B. The Medfield Prison Project should be utilized for laying the brick sidewalks and for providing any other appropriate assistance on this project.

C. The committee recommends seeking additional funding at the 1986 Annual Town Meeting, if necessary, to ensure that sufficient funds are available to complete this project in 1986.

38 FIRE DEPARTMENT

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

I hereby submit my fifteenth Annual Report as Chief of the Fire Depart- ment.

We have had another busy year. We experienced three incendiary building fires within a four day period in June, which taxed my department to the limit. We are very thankful for the excellent training that our personnel have received. Because of the well trained firefighters there were no injuries to the men or anyone else at these fires.

We awarded the bid for our new Brush Fire Engine and hope to have it by Spring. We are pleased to report that our present equipment is in good running condition.

We have added two new members to the department since my last report. They are Stephen Klotz and David 0' Toole.

Again this year I am urging the residents to properly mark their houses with numbers that are large enough to be seen from the street. Mailboxes should be marked by those people who live on the outskirts of town.

Our smoke detector inspections have increased. I would like to remind the residents who have battery operated detectors in their homes that they should change the batteries annually.

I have completed quarterly inspections in all schools and the Nursing Home and have inspected all businesses and multiple apartment buildings throughout the year.

I would like to thank the other Town Departments for their cooperation this year.

Respectfully submitted,

Jo.6e.pfi E. Ryan, Fire Chief

FIRE CHIEF RYAN

41 POLICE DEPARTMENT

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

I hereby submit my Annual Report for the year ending December 31, 1985.

PERSONNEL

We had no changes in the uniformed personnel during 1985. We did, however, have difficulty hiring interns for the fourth position on desk duty. John Ryan of Millis worked from January through March. From April through August, we had to use part-time officers and regular officers. Since September, Paul Sicard of Westwood has worked as an intern. John Wilhelmi, Carol Ann Palmieri and Patricia Rioux have worked as dispatchers, but Miss Palmieri resigned in December. Several applications were received, but no one was hired by year's end. This causes quite a problem covering all desk shifts as we continually have open shifts in uniformed positions due to in- service schooling, vacations and holidays. We also could not find another intern to work when Paul Sicard returned to school the first week of January 1986.

Rose Mattozzi resigned as our part-time secretary in August. Georganne Iverson-Kelly was rehired in this position.

TRAINING

All regular officers attended in-service training between September 1984 and March 1985. Again this year, all officers will have attended one week each of in-service training between September 1985 and March 1986. The school used by the Criminal Justice Training Council began in Dale Street School, moved to Foxboro in January 1985. Sergeant Clancy continues to be on the Board of Directors of the training academy and assists in establishing proper programs for the week of training. This term, firearms training is included as well as suicide prevention as required by state statute.

All permanent intermittent officers have attended a reserve/intermittent course. The course is for one evening per week for fourteen weeks. Special officers and auxiliary police officers are now attending also.

Sergeant Kerr attended a Sergeant's course in management at the training academy in Foxboro.

EQUIPMENT

As is customary, we replaced two cruisers again in 1985. Fortunately, we haven't had any major breakdowns recently.

The department received $150,000 at the Annual Town Meeting to buy a complete new radio system. Engineers from the Motorola Radio Corp. have been working on the plans and shortly, we should receive a quotation showing prices of various equipment and the design of items needed to outfit us with a new system on the 470 frequency. It will take 5-6 months for delivery and 42 installation after it is ordered by the Selectmen

I was able to apply for and receive a grant of $3,000 towards the purchase of an intoxilizer to replace our outmoded 7 year old breathalyzer. The unit was received in October and officers are attending school as spaces become available.

Our computer in the station connecting to the Criminal Justice Infor- mation System has been in place and working fine, allowing us rapid information on automobile listings and warrant information on fugitives. I have been looking into the computer systems available to use in the station to revamp our records and remodel our dispatching and logging of activity. Many departments have changed from a paper system to a computer system for more efficiency and less paper work.

I am still pursuing the Enhanced 911 emergency telephone system for Medfield. The 911 phone has been in use in Medfield for emergency calls since 1971 but in the near future E911 should be available wherein the police dispatcher will be able to determine the address and phone number of the caller immediately upon receiving a 911 call. This will greatly reduce the chance for error and allow a quick response to those that may excitedly call and hang up before relaying their address to us.

Traffic lights have had very little problems during 1985. A new control system, paid for by 1984 capital equipment funds, was installed at Main and North Streets and has worked fine. I have requested funds for replacing the controls at Main, Spring and North Meadows Road. Once we have that done, we will not have as much chance of long breakdowns as is the situation now.

The department as a whole had no major problems, no extended sick or injured leaves and crime was down slightly. We seem to be very busy just covering our patrol areas and assistance calls.

On September 27 when Hurricane Gloria paid us a visit in Medfield, it was gratifying to have many police officers and dispatchers report to work to help our regular shifts. Many others were extremely helpful to me; the

EMT'S , Auxiliary Police, Tree Warden, Highway and Fire Departments and many citizens who called or stopped in to offer the use of a chain saw, four- wheeled drive vehicle or trucks. Bob Ness and his son, Ken, kept the department supplied with coffee throughout the day.

With all the new areas being developed in town, and the numerous days off by officers for training, vacations, etc., I have again requested 2 additional officers to be added to the department. The Fair Labor Standards Act may cause considerable problems for me in regards to bookkeeping as it appears there is a lot of recordkeeping required and I only have a part-time secretary to do all police records, correspondence and ambulance billing records.

Thank you to all who assisted the department and me throughout the year; all Town Departments, Town Hall Employees and the Selectmen.

Again, I wish to thank the Auxiliary Police and their director, Vin Cellucci, for all their help during the year, especially on Medfield Day. They volunteered many hours at parades, Halloween, 4th of July and during emergencies. Their help is greatly appreciated. Respectfully submitted,

45 AMBULANCE DEPARTMENT

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The year 1985 was not as busy as some years in the past. A total of 306 trips were logged, 134 to Leonard Morse Hospital, 61 to Norwood Hospital, 54 to Glover Memorial Hospital, and 36 to Framingham Union Hospital. Forty- five of our trips were from the State Hospital. We sent mutual aid to Millis 3 times and received mutual aid from Millis 18 times and once from Dover. Twenty-two EMT'S participated in our ambulance service during 1985. We are always looking for new volunteer EMT'S, especially during summer months and during the daytime. We have lost several of those participating in 1985 due to relocation or job changes.

The ambulance was once again on display at Medfield Day and blood pressures taken of anyone wishing it by Ann Thompson, Joan Kiessling and Glen Jackson. Many hours of CPR instruction have been given during the year to any citizens that wish it. It is our desire to teach CPR to everybody in town. The ambulance was also brought to schools to make the young people familiar with it.

Ann Thompson continued to schedule coverage and covered many shifts herself and also recorded type and time of trips in her computer, making it considerably easier for me. Thanks to all the EMTS. but especially to Ann Thompson and Bob Currie who conducted training sessions throughout the year.

CIVIL DEFENSE

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

I hereby submit my Annual Report as Civil Defense Director for the year ending December 31, 1985.

The Civil Defense Director's responsibilities are to act as a liaison between the Selectmen and the Town Departments. The Civil Defense Director is also in charge of the Auxiliary Police under the Chief of Police.

In addition to our compulsory drills on July 4th and Halloween, our Auxiliary Police and Radio Operators were again requested to assist in the following events:

- Memorial Day activities - Traffic control June 1985 road race - Traffic control for the Medfield Day (MEMO DAY) and Christmas Parade activities.

During Hurricane Gloria, September 27, 1985, we were called into service to open the shelter at the Dale Street School which was powered with electricity by one of our generators. We patroled the roads of the Town and reported damage and hazards to the Town via radio, and were ready to provide electricity with our second generator where an emergency existed. On the following day, we made arrangements for showers to be available at the Jr. High School and maintained the building during those hours for those people who were still without power.

I wish to express my sincere thanks to the men and women of the Auxiliary Police for their cooperation throughout the past year, also, to the Board of Selectmen, Michael Sullivan and his staff, Police Chief Mann, Fire Chief Ryan for sharing his quarters for our E.O.C. Room and the Highway Department and our many other friends

49 ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICER

tie Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

I hereby submit my report as Animal Control Officer for the year ending December 31, 1985.

1985 has seen some good changes. Fewer dogs run loose in Medfield. Dog owners are beginning to realize the leash law is for their own good. We still have those few owners who continue to show disregard for the leash law but the problem has lessened.

Over eleven hundred animal related calls were logged and answered. These ranged from raccoons swimming in pools, tropical birds flying through the pine trees to horses in the streets in the early morning hours. We still have a cat problem and as in the past have found it necessary to request the aid of the Animal Rescue League.

As always, our special thanks to Chief Mann for his support and under- standing. To the Medfield Police Officers, without whose assistance we could not function, you have our sincerest thanks and appreciation.

There are two people who make a difficult job easier; Jenny Shaw and Steve Shaw. You have my thanks.

For all our friends who have made donations over the past year, you are very much appreciated and needed.

THE ANIMAL INSPECTOR

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

I hereby submit my report for 1985.

Thirteen dog bites, 2 cat bites and 1 mouse bite were reported. In all cases, except for the mouse and one dog, all animals were quarantined. All quarantined animals showed no sign of illness after 10 days. The dog not quarantined was an unknown animal in the area and all efforts made to locate it were unsuccessful. The mouse was observed but not quarantined upon direct orders from the State Laboratory, the reason being that mice are not rabies indicated rodents.

All livestock in Medfield have met with all the rules and regulations of both town and state. At the time of inspections we had 47 horses, 3 ponies, 2 donkeys, 15 sheep, and 7 cattle. All barns meet with regulations for water, air flow and cleanliness. All horses had been innoculated for encephalomyetis prevention.

I wish to thank Animal Control Officers, Louise Papadayannis, f or her assistance during the year. I also wish to thank Mae Otting for her continued assistance for which I am most grateful.

I am honored to serve the Town of Medfield, its people and its animals

This report is for the calender year ending December 31, 1985.

On September 27, 1985 we were hit by Hurricane Gloria. This was a rough way of breaking me in as your new Tree Warden, since we didn't have a tree crew. With many thanks to the men of the Highway, Water, and Sewer Depart- ments, we were able to keep the roads open during the storm, and clean up afterward. Thanks to some funds we were able to hire outside tree crews to remove the dangerous hangers and broken or split limbs, along with the many piles of brush on the roadside.

Since the Tree Department had no equipment prior to Hurricane Gloria, all routine pruning and removal of dead or dying trees had to be postponed.

Hopefully with next year's budget we will be able to get back on a regular pruning and planting program, as many of the towns trees are in need of care, in order to keep the streets and sidewalks safe for public travel.

The Dutch Elm Disease seems to be slowing down in its destruction of the town Elms but it sometimes seems like a losing battle.

Diseased Elms are removed before the next growing season, and some of the more prominent Elms are pruned. The usual sprays were applied for the Elm leaf beetle and for the Elm bark beetle.

We did some spot spraying for Gypsy Moths on the east side of town at the end of May.

Respectfully submitted,

Malcolm J. Gibson, Tree Warden Superintendent of Insect Pest Control

53 THE NORFOLK COUNTY MOSQUITO CONTROL PROJECT

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Operational Project Program integrates all proven technologies into a system of mosquito control that is rational, safe, effective and economi- cally feasible.

All mosquito eggs need water to hatch and to sustain larval growth.

Source Reduction Work: Our primary efforts are concentrated on the draining of shallow, standing, stagnant water and the maintenance of existing flow systems which contribute to mosquito breeding sources.

Brush obstructing drainage cut 4,147 feet Drainage construction by wide-track backhoe 4,106 feet

Larviciding: Treatment of mosquito larvae during aquatic development is the next most effective control effort.

Larvicide by backpack and mistblowers 194 acres Catch basin larvicide application 197 count

Adulticiding: The suppression of flying adult mosquitoes becomes necessary when they are numerous, annoying or threatening to residents.

Adulticide mistblowing from trucks 69 acres Adulticide U.L.V. from trucks 12,416 acres

Surveys, inspections and monitoring in support of our programs include locating and mapping breeding areas, larval and adult collections and field- work evaluations leading to better drainage.

The Project received 26 calls from residents for information and assistance.

Respectfully submitted,

John J. SmiXh, Superintendent

THE PLANNING BOARD

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

Just when we thought that the supply of developable land in Medfield was dwindling, six residential subdivisions containing a total of sixty-six single-family lots and two site plans for fourteen condominium units were approved in 1985. Many of the lots approved will be difficult to develop due to ledge, water table, drainage, wetlands, soil conditions and other physical characteristics

Seven industrial and commercial site plans were approved and one industrial subdivision was approved, rescinded and resubmitted.

The Planning Board is also currently revising its Land Subdivision Rules

6^ Regulations . These are the engineering and design guidelines used by the Board for the construction of roads and other improvements within subdivisions,

The following describes in some detail the activities of the Planning Board during 1985:

TOWN MEETING ACTIONS :

The 1985 Annual Town Meeting approved an amendment to the Zoning Bylaw permitting a family apartment in a single-family dwelling under certain conditions with a Special Permit from the Board of Appeals. Other changes in the Zoning Bylaw were under Section 12, a new requirement for restoration of property if earth is removed illegally and under Section 14.9, adding one more associate member to the Board of Appeals, making a new total of three members

Seven streets were accepted as public ways; namely, Jefferson Way, Garry Drive, Hummingbird Way, Oriole Road, Blacksmith Drive, Fieldstone Drive and Larkspur Lane.

The town meeting unanimously voted to rezone a parcel at the corner of West and West Mill Streets from IE to RU.

INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT:

1985 was a busy year for Medfield in the area of commercial and industrial development, considering the relatively small amount of commercial and industrial land still available for development.

The Planning Board reviewed the following commercial and industrial site plans:

A parking/drainage plan for a small industrial site on North Meadows Road was approved.

A revised Site Plan for office/retail space at 458 Main Street was approved.

55 : expansion o( the Ml'M Industrial building at the corner •ws Road and West Street was approved.

A site plan Eor Nedfield Industrial Park was approved.

Lte plan Eor the enlargement of E.C. Adams Company was withdrawn.

A site plan for Mobile Excavating was withdrawn.

An industrial subdivision was approved for Medfield Technology Park; however, this subdivision was rescinded by the Planning Board and an application for resubmission has been received.

RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT :

The Board approved six residential subdivisions during 1985; namely, Wampatuck Subdivision, 35 lots; Doe Acres Subdivision (Hickory Drive), 9 lots; Tocci-Dorfman (Hickory Drive, 5 lots; Castle Hill Subdivision (Deer- field Drive), 9 lots; Country Meadows Subdivision (Briar Hill Road), 5 lots; Jorie Lane Subdivision, no lots in Medfield; and Sheep Farm Lane (off Kaymark Drive) 1 lot and Cranmore Road within Belknap Estates, containing 7 lots, has been reactivated.

Two site plans for multifamily units were approved; seven condominium units at 73 Spring Street and seven units at 10 West Mill Street.

Twenty-two plans under Subdivision Control not required were signed by the Board in 1985. Twenty-eight lots were released for building within subdivisions during 1985. (See Schedule.)

The Board held four Scenic Way hearings, one for Noon Hill Street, to allow the removal of a portion of a stonewall which was to be replaced; one for a Causeway Street driveway; two for the same Pine Street driveway.

OTHER BUSINESS :

Members of the Planning Board served on several other Town committees, including the Capital Budget Committee, the Solid Waste Disposal Committee, the Bicycle Path/South Street Committee, Drainage Study Committee, School Reuse Committee and Reuse of Church Property Committee, as well as being liaisons with the Board of Selectmen, Warrant Committee, Board of Assessors, Superintendent of Streets, Water and Sewer Board, Housing Authority, Hazardous Waste Committee, MPIC, Central Business District, Park and Rec- reation Commission, YAC Recreational Review Commission, the Board of Appeals, School Committee, Sign Advisory Board, Historical Commission, Conservation Commission, Board of Health, Building Inspector, Landfill Committee, De- velopment and Industrial Board and Industrial Authority.

Six appointments were made to the MPIC and two appointments to the Sign Advisory Board.

The Planning Board acknowledges with thanks the cooperation and assistance of other Town Boards and Departments during the year, with special thanks to Town Counsel, Charles Fuller, Jr., Zoning Enforcing Of ficer /Build- ing Inspector, John O'Toole, Street Superintendent Kenneth Feeney, Street Foreman, Robert Kennedy.

56 Planning Board meetings are held weekly on Mondays at 8:00 p.m. at the Town House and are open to the public. Appointments with the Board must be made by the Thursday noon prior to the meeting.

61 BICYCLE PATH COMMITTEE

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Bicycle Path Committee was established in June 1983 by the Planning Board in response to concerns for safety and to seek available state and federal money for bike path construction. The Town's street map was reviewed and a "Master Plan" showing approximately 10 to 12 miles of proposed bike paths was developed. One street, South Street Extension, was selected as the first priority and plans were developed showing a bike path along this street. However, it was discovered that a bike path would not adequately solve the many vehicular and pedestrian problems on that street. Further-

1 more, due to the meandering of the street within the Town. ' s layout, construction of a bike path would need crossings and could not be entirely compatible with the roadway widening proposed in 1955.

In 1985, several members of the Bicycle Path Committee served on a new committee, the South Street Committee, to continue work for the improvements, not only of a bicycle path, but of an overall roadway reconstruction. Once improvements for South Street are agreed upon and approved, the Bicycle Path Committee will be ready to review the "Master Plan" and select a second priority.

62 TRUSTEES OF THE MEMORIAL PUBLIC LIBRARY

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Board of Trustees of the Memorial Public Library is pleased to submit its report on the 1985 year.

The Trustees thank Library Director, Jane Archer, and her staff for another year of fine programs, quality resource selection, and friendly service. Book circulation increased, as did use of the reading areas and meeting room. The new video cassette collection proved popular. The Library hosted a festival of George Inness prints. Cooperation with Medfield schools was emphasized and a monthly newsletter for users was started.

The above was accomplished with responsible financial management within the limits of our approved budget. The Trustees thank the town for its support of a Town Meeting floor motion to sustain funding for book purchases. For our part, we have tried to properly maintain the facility and implement cost saving measures for energy and periodicals.

We recognize with appreciation continued financial support of the Library by such groups as The Friends of The Library, Medfield Council on The Arts, local civic and business organizations, and individual citizen contributions.

The ongoing and future needs and direction of the Library are being shaped by input from the townspeople through surveys conducted this year on the level of services, parking needs, and the role of the library in Medfield, as well as less formal conversations with Trustees and Library staff. Several priorities have been identified.

We will strive to increase utilization of our Library through promotion of resources and programs, expanded hours, and examining parking needs.

The needs of children demand our attention for quality and quantity of materials and supportive programs.

Sustained and increased funding of adult materials is required to address our role as a popular adult reading facility and as an adult independent learning center.

Lastly, we desire to leverage our resource base by using computers to access the collections of neighboring libraries. Our plan is to join the Minuteman Network of libraries in the greater Framingham/Wellesley area.

We close by again thanking our supporters, patrons, and employees and look forward to serving you in 1986. Respectfully submitted,

HldiazZ Hou)a/id, Chairman GlUchan Child* fAaxityn Connote VojOlLqJji KaLLio Elizabeth Ua/utin 63 Satan VaAkoji THE MEMORIAL PUBLIC LIBRARY

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The library continues to grow in both number of books owned and number of books borrowed. In 1985, circulation increased by over 3,000 from the previous year. The range of materials available to be borrowed also grew as video cassettes were added to the collection. At year's end 43 titles had been purchased thanks in large measure to a grant from Corning and special funding from Lawrie Rhoads of FDC Packaging Company. The video collection, which contains children's and adult classics and contemporary award winners, is extremely popular with the 43 titles circulating over 2,400 times during the year.

It was discovered during the year that the collection also lost titles, as an inventory pinpointed 740 books that were missing. An appeal to the community brought back a small number, but the rest are still at large. Un- fortunately library theft is a common problem, and many towns have been forced to install electronic security devices. Our Trustees looked into the matter and feel that the expense is too great at this time.

To help make up for these losses, many townspeople donated books or money to the library. Over $1,000 was contributed to the library's gift fund in 1985, and many new and used books were given to the library. For all this community support we again say thank you.

An increase in the library's book budget was approved at Town Meeting to bring it more in line with per capita book expenditures in surrounding towns. Also, money for more staff time was approved so that additional assistance could be given to students after school.

The meeting room continued to be heavily used throughout the year by community organizations and for library sponsored programs. Over 1,500 people attended events that took place in this room. Library programs included lectures on how to start a mail order business, how acupuncture works, and how to build a coin collection or invest in rare coins. Classes sponsored by the library included computer programming, work processing, cal- ligraphy, and parenting of preschoolers. A slide show of London and an afternoon of classical music also were enjoyed by many. A computer users group was formed by those who own a personal computer in order to share ideas and information.

The library program which highlighted the year occurred in April with a celebration of George Inness, famous American landscape painter who lived in Medfield from 1859 to 1864. The celebration was planned to coincide with the opening of the Inness exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in fork. Funding from the Medfield Council on the Arts made it possible to invite Nicolai Cikovsky, Jr., noted Inness authority and curator of American Art at the National Gallery in Washington, to give a lecture and slide presentation to an overflow crowd. The present owners of the Inness homestead, John and Jo-Anne Hooper, graciously opened their home so that townspeople could see where Inness had lived and painted. An exhibit of photographs of Medfield in the 1860's, assembled by Dot Aronson of the 64 Medfield Historical Society, was featured in the library's meeting room and contributed to the special event.

The Friends of the Library continued to give active support to the library by sponsoring programs, underwriting the cost of museum passes and the rental collection, and by raising money for the library. Membership in the Friends almost doubled during the year as more townspeople made the com- mitment to a stronger library which can be shared by all. The annual used book sale remained a popular event and raised higher revenues than ever before. Thanks must be extended to the many people who donated books for the sale, for without you it could not have been a success. Numerous programs sponsored by the Friends included how to trace your family tree, how to do cross-stitch embroidery, how to make cut and pierced lampshades, how to make a statice wreath and how to make a boxwood Christmas tree. For children, they sponsored a magic show, a Halloween make-up workshop, and a make-your- own Christmas ornament program.

The Children's Room also experienced an increase in circulation during the year, as parents and young people continue to enjoy the pleasures of reading. Knowing that babies and young toddlers respond to works before they can speak, led to the development of a quality collection of sturdy board books and picture books to be read and shared with the very young. A shelf with books on parenting was also established thanks to a grant from New 'N Town.

Children's Librarian, Connie Jones, continued to be an important liaison with the community at large as she helped Girl Scouts with reading projects, worked with the high school child development clsss, conducted visits of the library for various nursery schools and school classes, and provided information on day care programs in Medfield.

Activities for children were held throughout the year beginning with Saturday afternoon movies in the winter, weekly Toddler Time Sessions during the spring and fall, and special summer events for preschoolers and school age children. Among the f unfilled sessions were making paper sculpture, de- signing your own board game and learning sign language, which was a big hit.

As we look to 1986, it is important to note that significant changes are occurring in libraries which will greatly enhance their usefulness. Many libraries are entering the titles of all the books they own into a computerized database which can be accessed by a computer terminal at the home library. In our geographic area, 20 libraries have formed the Minute- man Library Network which has a database of close to a million titles. The Medfield Library has the opportunity to join the Network as a quasi-member which means that we would be able to access their database even though our collection would not be included in it. Anyone needing a book not owned in Medfield could immediately find out who does own it and if it is on the shelf or checked out. A relatively small sum of money will be requested at the 1986 annual Town Meeting to provide access to these million titles.

In closing, there are so many people and organizations I wish I could publicly thank for the support they have given during the year. It has truly been overwhelming and without all of you the library would not be the wonderful community resource that it is. A most sincere thanks to each and every one of you. Also, my sincere appreciation is extended to the Library Trustees who provide leadership, guidance, and support and most especially to the library staff who make all of you feel so welcome when you come to the library. Every day, they are the ones who recommend interesting books and answer your questions. The entire community was deeply saddened when 65 . ^ur high school library aide, lost her life before Christmas. >Sb be a brighter year.

MEDFIELD HISTORICAL COMMISSION

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Medfield Historical Commission submits herewith its thirteenth Annual Report for the calendar year 1985.

The Medfield Historical Commission, appointed by the Board of Selectmen, is a legislated body mandated under state law. The primary duty of the Commission is to oversee the preservation, conservation, and restoration of all properties of historic significance.

Activities of the Historical Commission included:

1 House Inventory Program

This program continues to be an ongoing effort to create a detailed record of the historical properties in Medfield. The Commission maintains on file and continues to update this listing of historical properties.

2 The Historic Signs Program

This program researches applications of individuals with historically significant property. Once verified, signs noting the original owner, the the date of the property, and often the original owner's occupations, are prepared on a cost basis for display on the outside of the property. This program has become quite popular with numerous individuals requesting applications at the Commission's booth during Medfield Day.

3. Historic Trail Brochure

This Historic Trail Brochures continue to be available to the public. The brochure is a walking tour and guide to the architectural heritage of the town center. The brochure takes you from the 17th century English Yeoman style Peak House to the 19th century Queen Anne, Eliza Thayer block. It points out Colonial, Federal, Greek Revival, Victorian, and High Victorian Italianate style structures. Most of the properties are private residences and are not open to the public. Also, Sunday Services are still held in each of the churches on the tour. Copies of the brochure are available free of charge at the Town House, the Memorial Public Library, and at the Commission's booth during Medfield Day. They are also used by classes in the Wheelock, Junior and Senior High Schools.

4. Preservation Award Program

Henrietta Maloney was awarded the 1985 Medfield Historic Preserva- tion Award, honoring her efforts for the continuing restoration and preservation of the 1888 Thayer-Monks Business Block, 479 Main Street, Medfield. The award was presented to Ms. Maloney at a Board of Selectmen's meeting.

Any photographs for copy or information from townspeople concerning this program will be appreciated by the Commission.

In Memoriam

Laura Huntington Smith (1898-1985)

Laura was a dedicated historian and the Commission's second chairman. She spearheaded the reproduction and preservation program of the Town Is. She will be missed by all of us. Respectfully submitted,

P. VzSolQk&i, Associate Member Robert M. ManJU.no, 3H. , Chmn, .^ociate Member Nancy Codibpoti, Secretary SoZva, Associate Member David L. Omn, Treasurer Elzanon. Aaei Donald J. McDonald Donna TeAzian Ann S. MentzeA 68 TRIBUTE TO LAURA HUNTINGTON SMITH

Small in stature but a towering human being whose energy and personality touched and inspired many lives.

Laura's family goes back to the earliest founders and her interest in the history of the Town of Medfield and as a curator and librarian for many years of the Historical Society, as well as a Charter member of the Historical Commission, is known to all. She was the proud descendant of such persons as the Reverend Daniel Sanders who was a past President of the University of Vermont and a former minister of this meeting house, as well as Walter Janes a founder of the straw manufacture business in town and for whom Janes Avenue was named.

Laura could be found at the Society's headquarters sorting records or helping new members become familiar with the names and places that were her Medfield.

The Annual Report for the year 1976 was dedicated to her in appreciation of her efforts on behalf of the many Town Boards on which she served.

Even after she had retired from the teaching profession, she would still help any student — grammar, high school, college or other whenever called upon to assist in a history project; of course, correcting the grammar along the way.

Dilligently pouring through old dusty books in the cellars of the Court House in Boston, she traced back early deeds, and in so doing helped get the Peak House on the National Register of Historic Places. While serving on the Historical Commission, she was the driving force behind such projects as the restoring and preserving of the burned early records of the town. Most important was her part in the reprinting, in 1975, of W.S. Tilden's "History of Medfield", without which most of us would have hard put to become as familiar with the colorful and fascinating past that is Medfield. At the time there were only a few tattered and frayed original copies available and she recognized the importance of this volume as an accurate and detailed history and genealogical research book. She was obviously correct as it is now in its second printing and is being requested by researchers and is mailed to them to all parts of the country.

Who can forget the welcoming smile, and of course, the blue hat perched firmly upon her head as she walked down Main Street, usually to the Town Hall, off again on another project.

Laura, We love you, We respect you, We miss you,

Be at rest.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Medfield Council on Aging consists of five members appointed by the Selectmen. The current council members who were appointed in August 1985, continue to be responsible to provide services to the approximate 1,200 Medfield residents who have reached 60 years of age. We are assisted by two part-time salaried assistants, Executive Director, Harry T. Michell and driver of the MiniBus, Mrs. Millie Kennedy. Mr. Mitchell is available Monday through Friday at the Town House to answer questions about Council programs, and other related concerns such as, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, fuel assistance, etc. Mrs. Kennedy arranges and provides MiniBus transportation daily to the meal site, weekly to local and out-of-town shopping areas, and as needed for Council health and social programs. The Council is represented by two members on the Board of Directors of the King Philip Elder Services, Inc., area agency on aging.

This past year 400 hot lunches have been served Monday through Friday at the First Baptist Church meal site, and home-delivered by volunteers. A potential increase in the number of home delivered meals (32 - 36 daily) is anticipated in view of shorter hospitalization for Medicare patients. This program also provides socialization for those who come to the meal site, and awareness of the physical condition of the homebound.

A grant request for funding for a larger transportation van was submitted and has been awarded to the Council. The "Friends of the Medfield Seniors, Inc." has generously donated additional funding for this project. A new van which has been purchased and will be available in the near future, will have ties for 2 wheelchairs and easy, convenient access for our senior population. Undoubtedly increased transportation needs in Medfield' s growing senior population will have an impact on the Council's budget allocations.

Other grants have allowed us to continue the arts and crafts program developed and taught by Terri Roy at the First Baptist Church site. "HOPE", the monthly newsletter is mailed to 900 senior households, postage courtesy of the "Friends of Medfield Seniors, Inc.." A bi-monthly exercise program is available at the meal site.

A new program which was introduced this year, made available counseling and discussion sessions of day-to-day problems concerning senior residents and their families. Under the sponsorship of the Cutler Center in Norwood this has been well received.

A grant request has been submitted to provide funding for necessary renovations at the Pfaff Center to permit its use by Medfield Senior residents. The Council looks to the development of a single site for all Senior programs and social functions.

70 Our goal for the next year is to continue the existing successful programs, and to introduce additional programs to include a larger senior population. We most enthusiastically support the utilization of the Pfaff Center as a single site for all Medfield Senior functions.

71 THE COUNCIL ON AGING COORDINATOR

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The following are just a few facts of what happens in or through the .:inator's Office.

We have received a grant to replace our existing MiniBus during the next year. One of the best things about this new vehicle is that it will have more seating and easier access as well as tie downs for 2 wheelchairs. Of course the safety factor of a new vehicle and its parts are also an important feature.

The past year the present vehicle made nearly 12,000 trips of varying degrees. That is a lot of stop's and go's. This grant will mean a savings to the town of approximately $35,000 with a sizeable amount of this being contributed through the efforts of our "Friends of Medfield Seniors, Inc." Most of their monies are raised by selling membership tickets each year for S2.00 to anyone that is interested. The Friends also pay for all the postage needed to mail our monthly newsletter, "HOPE", and most of our other mailings too. So you see it is important for everyone to be a "Friend."

Another grant we received this year was to keep an arts and crafts program going and the Fit as a Fiddle Program also. These programs are small and only a part of what we try to do but they have a very important place in our attempt to look after the needs of our senior population.

_ help set up and advertise clinics, meetings, lunches, transportation and any other needs our residents have a need for. We welcome all Senior Citizens who would be interested in having the lunches and joining in on the fellowhip of the club. Call the Town House for more information.

Did you know that of the more than 10,000 residents in Medfield there are nearly 1,200 of them that are 60 years of age or older. Granted, most people from 60 to 70 do not need or want many of these services we provide, but we are here just in case. Just think of the impact seniors could have on elections, town meeting or any other event if they felt the need to join hands. Don't forget, most of you will be joining this elite group in the future.

We never have enough volunteers throughout the year and yet it is sur- prising to know that you or your neighbors help us deliver food, hot lunches, medicine, provide trips to hospitals and doctors when our bus is unavailable, answer phones, make phone calls and visits and fold, staple, and address letters and much more.

There is no way we can thank everyone by name but I do thank you for your time, your concern, your parties and your love for each other. That's what makes Medfield special. Respectfully submitted,

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Medfield Housing Authority is pleased to submit its Annual Report for 1985.

The Medfield Housing Authority is authorized by and operates under the provisions of Chapter 121B of the Massachusetts General Laws, as amended, which is known as the Housing and Urban Renewal Law. The Authority is entirely funded through the Executive Office of Communities and Development of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; it does not receive any funds from the Town's appropriations.

The Medfield Housing Authority is made up of five Commissioners, four of whom are elected for a five year term. Their terms are staggered so that only one Commissioner is elected each year. The fifth Commissioner is appointed by the Governor for a five year term.

The Authority is directed on a day-by-day basis by its Executive Director, Marie K. Roberts, P.H.M. John P. O'Toole is responsible for the physical aspects of the Authority's property. The dedication of Mrs. Roberts and Mr. O'Toole is easily recognized by observing the well run and well maintained housing authority.

The Commissioners and Director have attended workshops and conferences on housing needs throughout the year and will continue to do so in the future. Programs are continually being evaluated in order to determine their adapt- ability to the Town of Medfield.

In 1985, the Executive Office of Communities and Development reviewed energy conservation data submitted by the Authority. Analysis revealed that there was a substantial reduction in over-all energy consumption due largely to tenant cooperation. A grant was awarded to the Authority to be used for the improvement of quality-of-lif e for the tenants.

A full scope audit was conducted by the Office of the State Auditor for the period October 1, 1983 to September 30, 1985. The Authority is pleased to report that the Auditors found all accounts in order and no discrepancies were found.

The Authority received with regret the resignation of William D. Walsh in October. It was gratifying that several Medfield residents expressed an interest in filling Mr. Walsh's unexpired term. In a joint election with the Selectmen, Mark O'Connor, Esquire, was appointed to the Authority.

The Authority acknowledges with thanks the cooperation and assistance of other Town Boards, local organizations and the support of the entire community.

Questions pertaining to public housing may be directed to the Executive Director, Marie K. Roberts, P.H.M. at her office (359-6454) between 9:00 a.m.

73 and ru lys through Thursdays. The Medfield Housing Authority meets on the third luesday of each month at 7:30 p.m. in the office at 30 Pound The general public is welcome to attend these meetings.

THE CONSERVATION COMMISSION

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

Under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (M.G.L. 131, Section 40) and Medfield 's Wetlands By-Law the Conservation Commission performs a regulatory role as protector of the environment. This was a particularly active year as far as the number of public hearings was concerned. The hearings involved any persons proposing to fill, remove, dredge or otherwise alter land within 100 ft. of any wetland. These persons were required to file a Notice of Determination or Intent to the Commission. The following public hearings were held in 1985:

1. Ronald Tocci/Mark F. Dorfman Approved with conditions Doe Acres, residential dwellings, Farm St.

2. Wendy J. Pruell Approved with conditions Construction of a recreational pond, High St

3. Calvin W. Colwell, Hoover Realty Trust Approved with conditions Residential dwelling, Elm St.

4. Paul C. Lauenstein, MPM Realty Trust Approved with conditions Enlargement of existing building, West St.

5. John McCormick Approved with conditions Residential dwelling, Grace Dr.

6. Ralph Costello Approved with conditions Residential dwelling, High St.

7. Michael Marhol in /Howard Grayson, Medfield Approved with conditions Associates, Castle Estates Sewer line, North St.

8. Michael Marholin/Howard Grayson, Medfield Approved with conditions Associates, Castle Estates Drainage system, North St.

9. Peter Fickeisen, West Mill Realty Trust Approved with conditions Residential condominiums, West Mill St.

10. George Yered/Robert Keleher Approved with conditions Construction of warehouse, West Mill St.

11. John H. Rosata, Custom Concepts, Inc. Approved with conditions Residential dwelling, Pine St.

12. Ralph Costello Approved with conditions Residential dwellings, Plain St. & Briar Hill Rd

Conservation land may be acquired by the town as a tax deductible gift. 76 sale or easement. Residents are encouraged to keep this in mind and contact the Commission for further information. This year the town received a gift of 2^5 acres of land from Mr. John Lewis of North St. and his two sisters. This gift was able to provide a connection of a large tract of conservation land and one held in private trust creating a "green belt" area.

The town along with the Trustees of Reservations owns 477 acres of land on Noon Hill. We are in the process of developing a land management program with the Trustees in order to generate income and to make the land more accessible as a passively recreational resource for the general public. Dur- ing the summer the Highway Department under the authority of Ken Feeney was instrumental in reconstructing the Holt's Pond dam. The dam had been in a precarious state with multiple leaks and the threat of a major flood.

We regretfully accepted the resignation of John Bradstreet. John provided many years of valuable service and will always be remembered by those who had the privilege of being a Commission member along with him. Also joining the Commission this past year was Jesse Matuson and Stephen Bassett as associate members. Other changes were as follows: David Morrish and Robert Kinsman became full members from associate member status, and Edmund Hammond and Richard Bryant became associate members from full member status. Jesse Matuson was appointed as a committee member to the Bay Circuit Green- belt Project.

Another activity during the year was a Norfolk County Conservation Dis- trict meeting at the Medfield Town House. Dick Lewis, Chairman, officiated at the meeting. Dave Blackmar and Dick Emmet presented their topic: "Tools for Groundwater Protection" and were well received by members from Medfield, Millis and Dover conservation commissions; Millis Groundwater Protection Committee, Medfield Hazardous Waste Commissioner and guests.

Any interested Medfield resident is cordially invited to attend the monthly meetings of the Conservation Commission at the Town House, the first Thursday of each month at 7:30 p.m. Any resident wishing to join the Com- mission is invited to contact us.

77 HAZARDOUS WASTE COMMITTEE

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Hazardous Waste Committee spent nearly all its time in 1985 examining proposals for a bylaw regulating buried fuel tanks. There is great concern that leaks from these tanks might contaminate the town's water supplies. as has already happened in some of the neighboring towns.

Initially we concentrated on gas stations as the greatest probable problem area. But as we have learned more about underground storage, most of the concern, and debate, has been about the other buried tanks in town — those owned by businesses, industrial companies, home owners, schools, and the town itself. There is an alarmingly high probability that these tanks will leak after 15 to 20 years of age. The large oil companies already have good programs, and the resources, to monitor the leak tightness of the tanks they own. The vast majority of the other tanks in town are not monitored at all; their owners may not even know how old they are!

From what we have learned, the best way to monitor these tanks is to keep very detailed inventory records of the quantities of material going in- to and out of the tanks. Such inventory records are not practical for tanks connected to burners, however, a second monitoring method is to periodically test the tanks for leak tightness. The method of performing this test is not very simple, air pressure cannot be used and tank expansion and temperature changes have to be accounted for. Therefore, the test is ex- pensive, $400 or more for a single tank. We have been unable to find other, cheaper, methods to monitor buried tanks.

The bylaw we are proposing for the 1986 Town Meeting has the following basic features:

- Registration of all buried tanks, regardless of size. - Construction and installation requirements for new tanks. - Inventory record control for tanks containing automotive fuel or waste oil. - Periodic tightness testing of all buried tanks. - Removal of all tanks 20 years old or older.

- Administration by the Board of Health and the Fire Chief.

The proposed bylaw is essentially the same as one written by the Conservation Law Foundation.

We look forward to presenting this proposed bylaw. And we hope that the town will agree with us that the cost of implementing it will be more than outweighed by the protection it will afford our very valuable water resources. Respectfully submitted,

Vav-id B-ivotcA-C RobeAJi Janock, Chairman EdUh Bea£e Je^-ie MatuAon, Vonald SzngeA 78 BOARD OF HEALTH

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The calendar year 1985 again showed continued growth in the work load for the Board of Health agents, staff members and our contracting agencies. Growth was especially noted in the areas of on-site sewage disposal installations due to the need for a great deal of professional expertise in the planning and review of proposed septic systems. Our agents and staff found themselves spending more time supplying information and on consultation services as well as the continuing expansion of the outreach program's referral and counselling services.

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH - Sanitation

Due to new regulations promulgated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Health Agent John Keefe's duties were expanded in 1985. The Massachusetts Food Establishment Regulations became effective October 1, 1985. These regulations were designed to improve food safety by requiring good food handling practices in restaurants and supermarkets. All food service establishments and retail food stores located in Massachusetts are covered by these regulations. Mr. Keefe has provided education to all Medfield facilities including the schools relative to these new regulations. In addition, Mr. Keefe is required to enforce new state requirements for all re- tailers to notify customers of saccharin content in foods for sale.

As agent for the Board of Health, Agent John Keefe made 126 inspections of food service establishments and retail food stores and gave consultation and advice to 40 requests and investigated 10 food related complaints. All establishments are inspected at least quarterly. As in past years, while most establishments maintain their operation within the guidelines of the new state regulations, it continues to be necessary in some cases for the Board to request representatives of some to appear before the Board for review of re-occurring non-compliance problems. Various consultations were also held with school, highway and fire personnel and administrators as well as with State Public Health officials.

Under the provisions of Chapter II of the State Sanitary Code covering minimum standards for human habitation, Mr. Keefe made inspections of 6 dwelling units during the year which included random inspections of rental housing and inspections resulting from complaints and observations by other town inspectors in the course of their work. There were 3 housing violation complaints investigated and where violations of the State Sanitary Code were found, the owner or occupant was ordered to take corrective action and followup inspections were made to assure compliance. Mr. Keefe also made 116 miscellaneous inspections which included the public bathing beach, semi-public pools, laundromats, gas stations, shopping centers and the landfill. Twelve regular inspections of school cafeterias and 8 inspections of nursery schools were carried out thru the year. Total inspections and consultations during 1985 were 326.

79 ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER !

The town has experienced another year of growth and expansion. As the nutnK row, the load on our environment increases. The Board has b( ve and in cooperation with other Boards and Committees, has for proper management of our natural resources, particularly the protection of our water resources. In doing so, with support from our consulting engineer, William Domey and the state DEQE, the Board provided town residents and reviewed plans for future . cring assistance to the pment. The following is a list of some of the results of the Board of Health's efforts to serve the town.

New plans reviewed 29 Site plan approvals 5 Approved designs 19 On site soil tests 65 Septic system construction 24 Construction inspections 84 Repair permits 9 Well water systems 1 Installers' permits 15 Septage handler permits 20 Swimming pool review L9

Sewerage complaints were reviewed and investigations were conducted throughout the year. Approximately 120 site visits, 47 conferences and numerous hearings were held to respond to the 510 requests for service during the year.

In addition, the Board reviewed and supported the efforts of the Hazardous Waste Committee to produce a meaningful Hazardous Waste Bylaw.

ANIMAL CONTROL

Karen MacGregor continues her dedicated service as Animal Inspector and the Board of Health gratefully acknowledges her very capable assistance in that position. Her report is contained separately in this Town Report. The Board would like to remind residents that a permit issued annually by the Board of Health is required for the keeping of any animals other than household pets. Residents are also reminded that all animal bites or scratches must be reported immediately to the animal inspector or the Board of Health of the town in which the bite occurs so that the animal may be quarantined or if necessary, arrangements made for laboratory examination.

BOARD OF HEALTH PERMITS ISSUED

Restaurants, counter bars and cafeteria food service 14 Food stores and markets 13 Temporary food service permits 7 Catering permits 1 Mobile food service/ice cream vendors Milk licenses - vehicles and stores Bakeries 2 Laundromats 2 Funeral directors 1 Horse, animal, farm and stable permits 19 Veterinary clinics 1 Refuse and offal carters permits 4 Wood alcohol permits Total permits issued including disposal works construction, wells, installers, repairs and septage handlers 128

The total revenue from the issuance of permits and the fees for the review of plans was $6,012 for the calendar year 1985 compared to $6,330 for 1984.

CONTRACTS WITH HUMAN SERVICE DELIVERY SYSTEMS

The South Norfolk County Association for Retarded Citizens, Inc. has established a longstanding partnership with the Town of Medfield which has been the vital link in establishing and maintaining a basic, necessary system of services for people who are handicapped. The present wide range of programs serving Medfield includes such as Early Intervention for newborn babies and infants up to the age of three. A team of therapists serve the families in home-based and center-based developmental and therapeutic intervention. Citizens of town participate in day programs with prevocational and vocational training where they learn to maximize their skills and become more self-sufficient, perhaps some day to become totally independent of the need for services. Some families have been unable to care for their handicapped child as they become older and SNCARC, through its established program of residences and apartments, has been able to satisfy the necessary habilitational needs, providing a home and security for the future.

SNCARC' s resources extend to other areas such as counseling, respite care and social and recreational programs.

Ncrrolk Mental Health Association provides services to the Toxcn of Medfield which include vocational rehabilitation and sheltered employment for the handicapped , volunteer case-aide and parent aide services to in- dividuf who are experiencing especially high levels of stress, crisis or needs for one-to-one support, a large and very beneficial Widowed Lifeline program, an Intergenerational Care Program bringing young children together with ill elderly people in a nursing home, a preventative educational program on parenting called the Parent/lnfant/Toddler Program, and a small residents ' program for deinstitutions.lized adults who have both chronic mental illnesf .nd mental retardation.

I ;he first seven months of this fiscal year (Town of Medfield funding for these services reinstated 7/1/85) Cutler Counseling Center provided 526 hours . idividuals from Medfield. In addition, Medfield is being with 80 "free" consultation hours for the Council on Aging. edica, Director of Cutler's Services to the Elderly, has been meeting with Harry Mitchell, Medfield' s Elderly Coordinator, and has been lead. up of older residents of the town to give them support and help them socialize and learn more about available community resources.

PfBLIC HEALTH NURSING

The Walpole Area Visiting Nurse Association, Medfield 's public health nursing supplier, increased its home health services in Medfield by 8% in 1985. In particular, home health aide services increased due to an increased need for personal care by 12% over 1984. The agency's other services: skilled nursing; physical, occupational and speech therapies; and medical social workers continue to be available for Medfield residents.

The above services are usually reimbursed by third party payments such as Medicare, Medicaid and private health insurance. However, in 1985, Medicare's reinterpretation of regulations substantially affected the eligibility of individuals receiving services under Medicare. In 1985, the Walpole Area Visiting Nurse Association provided almost $6,000 in free and reduced fee care to residents of Medfield, who in most cases could not be covered under Medicare. The Walpole Area Visiting Nurse Association will continue to provide these services to all Medfield residents regardless of their ability to pay.

Our Public Health Program, which the town supports, is an important part of our total organization. Health Promotion visits to the chronically ill and the elderly are vital in helping to maintain these persons in their homes. In addition, the Walpole Area Visiting Nurse Association provides appropriate followup for certain communicable diseases as mandated by the Massachusetts Department of Health.

People who are not seen in the home, receive services at our clinics. A major component of our clinic services are the monthly Senior Citizen Health Clinics which are still held on the first Tuesday at Wilkins Glen and the third Tuesday of each month at Tilden Village. During these clinics, a well-rounded program of health education is supplemented by blood pressure and weight monitoring as well as personalized diet and medication counseling. These services are also available during office hours at the Walpole office on Monday, Tuesday and Friday mornings between 9 A.M. and 10 A.M. at the Blackburn Hall in Walpole.

The flu clinic was well attended again this year. In addition to our screening programs for diabetes, and hypertension, we added a colorectal cancer screening program to better serve Medfield residents.

While our Maternal-Child Health program continues to provide visits to newborns and their families, our inexpensive classes have grown substantially due to our personalized appoach. A new service that we are providing to supplement this program is an infant car seat rental service for assisting all individuals with the transporting of infants. This service started in December through a grant from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.

As we begin a new year of service, we would like to thank those local physicians and community organizations who worked closely with our agency in 1985. Most of all we appreciate the support and sensitivity of Medfield 's town officials who assist us in our efforts to better serve the residents.

YOUTH OUTREACH PROGRAM

The Medfield Outreach Program continues to be a position supported by the town and administered by the Board of Health and the Outreach Advisory

Committee. The Outreach Advisory Committee, which consists of Diana Sandgren :

Virginia Cusack (citizens at large) , Lois Cardell (school nurse) , William

Mann (Police Chief) , Carol Nye (Board of Health liaison) , and Lois Lambert (Director of Pupil Services) continues to meet every four to six weeks in the Outreach Office. They review and evaluate the Youth Outreach activities and take recommendations to the Board of Health for improving or expanding the program as well as providing guidelines for administrative action relative to the program.

The focus of the position has traditionally been, and remains, crisis intervention, short and some long term counseling, information and referrals, community and client liaison and advocacy. These confidential services are offered free of charge to Medfield youth and their families by the Outreach Worker, Nancy Acker-Wolfhagen, who has been providing services since her hiring in January 1985.

OUTREACH STATISTICS

For the year starting January 1985 and ending December 1985, a total of 96 clients were serviced by the Outreach Worker. Of these, 38% were repeat visits with 60% making more than 5 visits to the office and several who retained longer term relationships of 30 meetings or more.

These persons received services in the following areas:

Family related issues 52 Sexual abuse 3 Information 17 Referrals 24 Alcohol related issues 12 Other drug related issues 6 Physical abuse 6 83 I u ing issues 8

related issues 1

i ity 9 Work related issues 3 Depression 10

• rce 12 Pregnancy 5 Peer related issues 25

Diversion 1 Rent-a-Kid 14 Emergency housing 9 Crisis Intervention 29

In over 50% of the cases, parents and other family members were involved in the counseling process. Clients were referred to the Outreach Worker by the school (25%) , self referral (55%) , with the remaining 20% being referred by other sources such as Juvenile Diversion, local physicians, local ministers, state agencies, private counseling agencies and local clubs and groups.

Committees and Groups The Outreach Worker participates in a number of groups on a regular basis including: the Youth Advisory Committee, the Salvation Army Advisory Board, the superintendent's Alcohol and Drug Task Force, a weekly mental health professionals' resource group, and monthly meetings of the Massachusetts Municipal Human Service Workers Association. Nancy also aided the Medfield Hunger Action Committee by housing their food pantry in her office.

This fall the Rent-a-Kid program was extended to a full year program out of the Outreach Office. At the end of the year there were 21 students registered with the program, a number of whom have had several jobs in the community.

School Outreach The Outreach Worker continues to meet with school personnel on a regular basis, which includes administrators, school psychologists, guidance staff and some teachers at the Middle School, High School and two elementary schools. She had the opportunity- to meet and talk with all sixth, seventh and ninth grade classes and several of the eleventh grade classes. Topics included such as Decisionmaking, Responsible behavior, Substance use and abuse. Nancy also has participated in the Students Against Driving Drunk chapter at the High School including attendance at a day long resource exchange in Newton.

Community Outreach The Outreach Worker meets with the police, Juvenile Di- version, church staff, Board of Selectmen, outside agencies such as private practitioners, doctors, Screening and Emergency Team, Department of Social Services, hospitals, etc. to coordinate services and for public awareness of the Outreach program. Nancy also held an Open House for the community in April and spoke on parenting issues at a meeting of the Divorced and Separated group in Medfield.

Educational Advancement and Supervision Nancy participated in a two-day training program sponsored by the Massachusetts Criminal Justice Training Council on rape victimology for the crisis worker and attended an all day conference at U. Mass Medical Center on working with families of school-age children.

has maintained a weekly clinical supervisory relationship with Alex Ringelheim, MSW of Needham Family Services. She also has been meeting 84 bi-weekly with Mark Blogier, MSW of Needham Family Services about clinical issues of younger clients. Supervision assures Medfield clients in the Outreach program the very best in services.

The Board of Health would like to take this opportunity to thank its agents, staff and Advisory Committee members for their dedicated service.

The Board normally holds its meetings on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of each month at the Town Hall. These meetings are open to the public and citizens are invited to attend and participate.

85 CEMETERY COMMISSION

he Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

I respectfully submit the report of the Cemetery Department for the year ending 1985.

I feel so much has been accomplished this past year. With the generous assistance of the Highway Department personnel all the avenues have been re- surfaced and or sealed. This will keep our avenues in shape tc* several years without major road work.

Work on our newest section, B-3, has been accomplished with little impact on our budget, since all the development has been with the support of the many town departments, more specifically, the Highway Department. The expertise of the county engineers has been enlisted to help with the survey- ing and plotting this new section. It is hoped this will be ready for use by spring of 1986.

In addition to replacing the "household" type riding lawn mower with a commercial machine, I have borrowed a second commercial lawn mower until next year when we will have funds to purchase our own. There has been so much growth in our developed lands that it is necessary to have two commercial rider mowers in service, in addition to the hand powered mowers.

There was so much damage caused by the hurricane this past September that without the support and help of our new Tree Warden and his department we would have been cleaning up (and climbing up) until 1996.

of your cemetery feel there is Keep in mind the need for expansion ,, I no immediate concern, but, if you decide to wait much longer, there will be a serious problem.

Again, I wish to thank all the town departments for their unselfish support. Without their help we would not have accomplished so much with so little.

Respectfully submitted,

86 THE PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

old Youth The Commission in 1985 completed the restoration of the Medfield Prison Center with the assistance of the labor provided by the local civic Project and over $12,000 of donated funds, and furnishings from in November 1985 and business organizations. The building was rededicated Commission negotiated a as the Hannah Adams Pfaff Community Center. The to heat the contract with the Charles River Y.M.C.A. to provide the cost Y.M.C.A., facilities in exchange for usage of the Pfaff Center. The before and after day sponsored by the Commission provides a summer day camp, community. care center, exercise and aerobic classes for the

The Commission convened a meeting of all civic, sports and business organizations to act as a Board of Directors to study the utilization and future planning and to develop the Pfaff Center into a community center serving all organizations in the community.

The Commission established a special committee of all sports organizations (Little League, Babe Ruth League, American Legion baseball, Youth Soccer, Girls Softball, Men's Softball, Men over the-hill Softball, the Chairman of the Commission, Superintendent of Schools and Athletic Director to help improve the quality of the playing fields in the community. As a result the 56 acre ballfields were redesigned to accommodate the Men's Soft- ball Leagues, and two new soccer fields were developed behind the Wheelock School. In addition, the Dale Street Memorial School fields were replanted, soded and restored to make 1-2 new soccer fields, and 1 regulation Little League Field. This committee will meet on a regular basis to help plan future improvements and to better coordinate the scheduling and usage of the playing fields, both Park and school.

The Youth Activities Coordinator was extremely active, running several dances, bus trips, days at the beach in the summer, and a Halloween Party. Perhaps the leading one of his activities is the establishment of a drop-in restaurant of the Pfaff Center on Saturday nights for High School students. This restaurant provides a place for teenagers to watch sports events, video music in an informal atmosphere, and to socialize with their peers in an informal setting.

The Commission is also taking steps to develop the Hinkley swimpond into an outdoor recreational facility with the help of CETA workers, prisoners from the Medfield Prison Project and private contributions. The brush areas will be cleared and picnic tables and grills will provide an area for groups and individuals to enjoy in the spring, summer and fall months.

The many other sponsored or supported programs of the commission were all highly successful;

89 THE MEDFIELD PRISON PROJECT

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Medfield Prison Project originated in 1971 following enabling legislation, under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 127, Section 49A and Section 49B, which authorized the establishment of state school/hospital programs. Located on the grounds of the Medfield State Hospital, the program commenced in 1971 as the Medf ield-Norfolk Prison Project. During this phase of the program, inmates from MCI-Norfolk were transported daily to the hospital to work on the wards, providing direct patient care.

On May 9, 1976 the program became a residential program with a maximum capacity of thirty-six (36) inmates. As such, it became a unique hospital program fully integrating the operations of a minimum security correctional facility and a state school/hospital program. Despite its uniqueness, the Medfield Prison Project is part of a larger network of hospital programs aimed at meeting the critical needs of both Corrections and the fields of public and mental health.

Medfield Prison Project utilizes carefully screened inmates from other correctional institutions to provide direct patient care and other vital services to mentally ill, retarded, aged, infirm and otherwise disadvantaged residents. Program participants must be approved via the Department of Correction Classification process before undergoing a final interview by a hospital screening committee composed of representatives from the Medfield Prison Project, Medfield State Hospital and the local Medfield community. Eligibility criteria restricts participation to those inmates who are not currently serving a sentence for a sex, arson or drug offense. However, six (6) lifer slots are available.

Medfield State Hospital has about two hundred and fifty (250) mentally ill and emotionally disturbed patients. It offers full psychiatric diag- nostic care and treatment services on both an in-patient and out-patient basis. Medfield inmates work a minimum of forty (40) hours per-week in assignments throughout the hospital. Assignments vary to some extent, but there is an emphasis on providing direct care services to Medfield patients. Since most patients are mobile and able to function at a relatively high level, inmate assistance is utilized heavily in providing supervision of daily living, social, and recreational activities. Program participants may also be assigned to work on more specialized group and individual programs through the Occupational Therapy Department. While the emphasis is on providing direct patient services, an effort is made to utilize as fully as possible any special skills an inmate brings to the program in order to meet an existing need at the hospital. In addition to regular weekly work responsibilities many Medfield inmates are periodically involved in running special weekend recreational programs on hospital grounds for retarded youngsters from the surrounding community.

Participating inmates are offered a unique humanizing work experience, a variety of training and educational opportunities, and post-release employment possibilities. Performing duties comparable to those of mental 90 health aides, they work under the direct supervision of mental health professionals and other supervisory personnel.

The Medfield Prison Project hospital program provides a transition phase between more standard incarceration and pre-release; provides valuable assistance to the Department of Mental Health in the execution of its responsibilities; and provides the inmate population with a valuable introductory work experience in the human service field with additional opportunities for further education, training and employment.

This past year Medfield has benefited, as many other state communities have in the past, by allowing prisoners to work on civic projects. Much has been accomplished in town with the use of this free labor. Close to 1,800 hours have been devoted to projects around town, such as: Town Pond - High- way Department - Town Garage - Community Center - Church Sidewalk - Schools and Library.

Early in December the Medfield Prison Project successfully achieved accreditation by the Commission on Accreditation, which indicates that the prison is in compliance with the highest standards nationally. We join select company, for less than 20% of the nation's prisons have received this accreditation.

91 THE YOUTH ADVISORY COMMISSION

To che Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Commission's goals this year are a continuation of last year's. The students are working hard on the SADD (Students against Drunk Driving) Program.

We have a new project this year. Walpole is offering a Family Awareness program which helps teenagers who are troubled and need to confide in an adult. A hot-line is available to them.

Some of the commission are helping in the success of the new Night Spot at the Pfaff Center every Saturday night. They are also working closely with the Student Council and School Committee to make them aware of any school related problems.

The Youth Recreational Booklet review progress is underway also.

Enforcement of the State Building Code continues to be the responsibility of the local building inspectors. Section 109.1.1 of that code requires all permit applicants to have State Construction Supervisor's licenses unless they are the property owner. The office of the Inspection Department must keep an accurate registration of license holders in order to assure compliance with Section 109.1.1. The building inspectors continue the enforcement of the code by making annual inspections of schools, churches and rest homes as well as other places of assembly.

The Inspector of Buildings also serves the town in the capacity of En- forcing Officer for Zoning and as such devotes many hours to investigation and enforcement of the Zoning Bylaw of the Town.

The assistance and cooperation of Fire Chief Ryan in the inspection of smoke detectors in new construction and additions and renovations were greatly appreciated. The Chief and the Inspectors continue to inspect the installation of solid fuel burning appliances with an ever continuing number of residents placing them into their homes. The residents are again reminded of the importance of having their wood stove installations inspected and certified in accordance with requirements of the Massachusetts State Building Code. Additionally, the inspectors and the Fire Chief have initiated an additional inspection requirement during the construction of new homes for chimneys

PLUMBING AND GAS INSPECTION

As in past years, of the above listed inspections, a number were concerned with investigation, administration or enforcement in connection with violations. Enforcement of 248 CMR 2.00 The Uniform State Plumbing Code and the Massachusetts Fuel Gas Code is the responsibility of the local plumbing and gas inspectors. Letters and telephone calls were made in relation to violations of these state codes as well as referrals to the State Boards of Examiners of Plumbers and Gas Fitters. The assistance of Michael Wright as Acting Assistant was appreciated once again during the absence of the Gas Inspector from time to time during the year.

97 WIRING INSPECTION

The Wiring Inspector continues to enforce the Massachusetts Electrical Code as well as the National Electric Code in his inspections of electrical installations for which permits are issued. As with the other inspectors in the department, re-inspections for violations are made where necessary and s and follow-up telephone calls are also made. The assistance of Tauno Aalto as Assistant Inspector of Wires during the periodic absences of the Wiring Inspector was greatly appreciated.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Residents of Medfield:

The Tri-County Regional School District Committee accepted with regret the resignation of two of its members: Timothy Greene (Sherborn) and

Robert Riccio (North Attleboro) . The new members are Arthur Green (Sherborn) and Vincent Hoye (North Attleboro). Mr. Hoye was familiar with the operation of Tri-County, having been a faculty member for several years.

The elected officers were: John Hanley (Seekonk) Chairman, Melvin Long (Norfolk) Vice-Chairman, Louis E. Hoegler (Walpole) Secretary. John Hurley (Medway) was appointed Chairman of the Personnel & Policy Sub-Committee and Robert Rappa (Franklin) was appointed Chairman of the Budget Sub-Committee. In addition to chairing the Collective Bargaining Sub-Committee, Albert Chouinard (Medfield) was named Chairman of the new Reform Review Sub-Com- mittee.

As in the past, the School Committee members continue to provide invaluable direction that lends itself to the constant improvement of the quality of education offered at Tri-County. The report that follows sub- stantiates that fact.

ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT

A close working relationship between academic and shop teachers has strengthened the curricula in all areas. Not only are the standards and college requirements being met, but also relevancy and application are demonstrated in a practical way.

The Math Department has offered a pre-calculus course to those seniors planning to attend a technical college. Students in the science classes were introduced to concepts of laser technology as well as an updated unit on solar energy. Because Halley's Comet is a dramatic event occurring only once every 76 years, a mini-course was also added to the science subjects this year. The Business Department continued to work closely with the Dis- tributive Education Department, adding the latest "state-of-the-art" software in word processing, accounting, and filing systems.

TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT

As technology continues to develop, the importance of challenging the students in the technical courses becomes increasingly evident. Therefore, the seniors in Electronics have been introduced to the Advanced Placement course in Pascal with the expectation that they will be adequately prepared to deal with the sophisticated nature of the material.

The emphasis and thrust of both technical and vocational programs has been to provide our students with the competitive edge in the work force. The Drafting and Graphic Arts curricula, along with Electronics, have utilized more complicated software to achieve that goal. Building upon the basic introduction last year to the CAD program and the Modular Composition Systems, students have progressed rapidly to programming those computers 102 with an improved degree of efficiency.

VOCATIONAL DEPARTMENT

The largest project undertaken by several vocational trades is nearing completion. For the past two years, the Carpentry, Masonry, Electrical and Plumbing instructors and students have worked to restore the Attleboro Falls Fire Barn. The brick foundation was repaired, and the old chimney was removed and replaced by the masons. Plumbers have installed a totally new heating system including the furnace, kitchen and restroom facilities. The exterior and interior office space was worked on by the electricians and carpenters, transforming the building into a museum with the upper portion utilized by the North Attleboro /Plainville Chamber of Commerce.

The~ Town of Millis hosted the state Little League playoffs last year and Tri-County participated in the preparation by repairing the two dugouts and constructing a press booth above the concession stand.

SERVICE OCCUPATIONS

Students enrolled in the Distributive Education program were involved in the opening of the Dean Cooperative Bank at Tri-County last March. Since it was the first bank in Norfolk County and the first cooperative bank to establish a school branch, the ribbon cutting ceremony was televised on the Channel 5 Evening news. Under the supervision of a Dean Cooperative Bank employee, junior and senior D.E. students have functioned as bank tellers, offering to the customers full banking services.

The Cosmetology Department also expanded its offerings to the students and to the public it serves. The State Board of Registration in Cosmetology made an on-site examination and granted official approval for Tri-County to offer a 300-hour esthetician' s certification course.

The nursery school, operating as an inherent part of the Child Care curriculum, continued to be a popular choice for mothers in the communities. The donation of a piano and the purchase of an autoharp expanded the musical dimensions of the program.

The "Rainbow Room" enhanced their menu last year and offered its patrons a brunch on Fridays. In addition to the daily luncheon menu, a buffet was also introduced in order to broaden the students' knowledge of the culinary arts.

The staff and students in the technical and service areas are grateful for the support given to them by members of the towns.

EARLY ADMISSIONS

An agreement has been worked out between Tri-County and Massachusetts Bay Community College whereby qualified high school seniors will be allowed admission to the College during the second semester of their senior year. Qualifying students must be in the top ten percent of their class and will receive credits for graduation at Tri-County as well as credits for one full semester at Mass. Bay. They may continue to participate in Tri-County athletic teams, clubs and organizations and/or similar activities at the College.

GRADUATION

On June 2, 213 students were graduated in an impressive ceremony. 103 Mr, Wayne Cot tie. President of the Dean Cooperative Bank in Franklin was the featured speaker and music was provided by the Southeastern Community Concert Band. Medfield students who received their diplomas are: Robert Bean Anne Commane Bryant Fay Charles Fernald Daniel Gilpatrick Keith Heisler Christopher Hersee Mark Higgins Robert James Kimberly Lake Ernest Roy Robert Scobie Mark Walsh

ADMISSIONS

In September, 224 ninth grade students enrolled at Tri-County. Of that number, nine were Medfield residents. We are now educating 41 Medfield students out of a total enrollment of 874 district residents and 27 non-district (tuition) residents. The Town of Medfield's rate of participation has been established at 4.69%.

GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT

The lowest unemployment rate of any graduating class was claimed by the Class of 1985. Of those 213 students, 54% found employment in their trade areas, 20% were employed in other areas, 15% were accepted into college and 6% entered the military service. The status of 3.5% is unknown.

Tri-County was proud to have three Commonwealth scholars receiving $1,000.00 each in scholarship money at graduation. A total of $18,000.00 was awarded to deserving seniors, with one student receiving full tuition to Central New England College.

The Pupil Services Department administered the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test, S.R.A. Achievement Tests, the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Test Battery, and the Massachusetts Basic Skills Tests.

The Guidance Department also arranged for "Eddie Was Here". This power- ful true story depicting the tragedy of drug and alcohol abuse resulting in the loss of a 16 year old life was acted by Tri-County students. The entire student body viewed the performance and many returned with their parents in the evening.

The Director of Pupil Services and the counselors are in the process of scheduling tours, assemblies, and interviews to select the incoming Freshman Class for September 1986.

SPECIAL NEEDS DEPARTMENT

During the past year, Tri-County continued to offer a full range of special education programs under Chapter 766.

The Department was the recipient of a Rainbow 100 computer from Digital Equipment Corporation for use by the hearing impaired students attending Tri-County. Through the use of this computer, students enhanced their knowledge in several academic subjects - language arts, mathematics and chemistry to name a few.

With the acquisition of a telephone modem, the special needs staff was placed on-line with the Clark School for the Deaf. This access to unlimited information supplies both teachers and students with readily available options and alternatives.

104 . . ,

New to the Special Needs Department was the presence of an administrative intern who not only received invaluable real experience but also provided assistance in many areas, such as grant writing.

ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT

The athletic teams experienced a very lean year in the win/loss column but many outstanding individual performances emerged throughout the athletic seasons.

The girls' programs (basketball and softball) were led by perennial all- star LuAnn Cormier of Franklin. LuAnn has been the heart and soul of the girls' programs for the past four years.

The boys' basketball team experienced a winless season. Doug Bowden (North Attleboro) was awarded the Most Improved Player Award and the "Cougar Award" was given to Steve Wolff (Franklin)

The girls' volleyball team, however, was outstanding. Winning nine of their sixteen games, they were runner-up in their division. Four of the girls were named to the all-star team in the Mayflower League: Holly Hicks

(Walpole) , Terri Chelebek (North Attleboro) , Elizabeth Wallace (Franklin) and Carolanne Gleason (Walpole)

Since this was the first year of participation in volleyball, an even better record is anticipated for next year.

The Tri-County hockey team was a J.V. Squad in 1985 and the future looks bright with Charlie Robinson and Chip Bradbury (Franklin) leading the way.

EVENING SCHOOL

In addition to the usual adult continuing education courses in the past, two new courses were offered: Control Systems for Commercial, Industrial and Residential Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning, and Basic Computer Programming.

"The Comet Halley and Other Astronomical Delights" will begin December 2nd and will end in April 1986, since that will be the best viewing time in the Northern Hemisphere. It will be presented as a non-technical, "down to earth" approach to finding the comet. This program will not be offered again until the year 2061.

ACTIVITY PERIOD

Last Spring a group of teachers presented a plan designed to foster greater school spirit and encourage more participation in extracurricular activities. The "Activity Period" was initiated in the Fall and more than 400 students chose to become involved.

In addition to sports such as football, cross-country and volleyball, sixteen other activities were available that ranged from "aerobics" to "yearbook". The success of these enrichment programs was evidence by the increase in offerings and the even larger numbers of students involved at the end of the second semester.

The interaction between students and teachers in nontraditional settings has served as catalyst in establishing an even more positive learning atmosphere in the classroom. 105 MTV SERVICE

The facilities at Tri-County were made available for use by a number of community organizations throughout the year. The American Red Cross held two successful bloodmobiles and the Franklin Life Savers Association offered courses in cardiopulmonary resuscitation and "choke saving" several times during the year.

BOOSTERS CLUB BINGO

Through the efforts of Tri-County Boosters Club, led by Mrs. Frances DeBaggis, the school was granted permission by the Massachusetts State Lottery Commission to serve as an official site for Bingo. Since June 13, 1985, more than 300 people have been attending the Thursday night games each week. The proceeds will be used to benefit the school in general and the students in particular. For example, benches for the members of the athletic teams were purchased in the Fall and several educational field trips were sponsored by the Boosters Club as a result of the bingo games.

BUDGET

The assessment to the Town of Medfield for Fiscal Year 1986 is in the amount of $130,391.76. That figure represents an enrollment of 50 Medfield students (October 1984) out of a total enrollment of 947 or 5.28% of a total assessment of $2,469,541.00.

SUMMARY

As we move into 1986 and continue to provide the best in educational needs to our students, we thank the district residents for their support and cooperation. We intend to maintain in the future these high educational standards that have earned us that support in the past.

Respectfully submitted,

John V. HanZ^y, Chairman MbeAt G. CkoiUnaAd, Medfield

106 PUBLIC SCHOOL REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31. 1985

107 REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMFTTEE The Medfield School Committee remains committed to providing each of our students with a quality education that will allow them to grow and succeed in today's world. We feel that through the efforts of our administration and teaching staff this goal has again been met for the past school year.

It is evident to the School Committee, however, that the task of balanc- ing educational needs and available dollars is becoming increasingly difficult,

Declining enrollment has allowed the school system to realize certain savings due to the need for fewer teachers. It is recognized, however, that savings of this type cannot go on indefinitely and that we may be reaching the point where further staff reductions will be harmful to the educational process. Be assured, that despite continuing financial constraints, the School Committee will strive to maintain the integrity of our educational programs and desirable teacher -pupil ratios.

After two years of study and planning, major school reorganization in Medfield became a reality in September 1985. The Memorial School, which had served the Town for some thirty-five years was closed for educational use, with kindergarten through grade 3 being moved from there to the Wheelock School.

In the spring, the School Committee appointed the Memorial School Re-use Committee, to study re-use possibilities and to make recommendations for the future of the building. After considering the options of either selling the building or leasing it, a recommendation that the facility be leased was made, and two potential tenants were presented. The School Committee, along with the Board of Selectmen, agreed to lease the building to the South Norfolk

County Association for Retarded Citizens (SNCARC) , for a three-year period with options to extend the lease beyond that time. By continuing to own the building, the Town is protected in the event our school population increases to the point that the facility is needed again.

The other aspects of reorganization saw the 4th and 5th grades move from Wheelock School to the Dale Street School and the 6th grade move to the Junior High School to become part of the new Middle School. The School Committee feels this grade structure is educationally sound and will make the most efficient use of our school buildings.

The School Committee would like to commend the administration and staff for the outstanding job they did in completing the reorganization move. The management and coordination of the move by the Superintendent and his staff resulted in a smooth school opening in September, after a hectic spring and summer of transporting material and furnishings and preparing classrooms. Also a special thanks is due to the many staff members who volunteered their own time to help in the move.

The 1985 school year is the first in which the Town has had a Middle School organization. The School Committee last year adopted the philosophy of the Middle School for grades 6-8. It is hoped that this will provide a better transition between the self-contained classrooms of elementary school and the fully departmentalized classes of the High School. 108 The Medfield Middle School structure is set up with students within each grade being assigned to a team of teachers. Teachers on each team are given time to meet and formulate ideas and strategy for teaching students on their teams. The School Committee has been pleased with the results of team-teaching and looks forward to continued refinements and improvements to the program.

In the collective bargaining area, the School Committee and the Medfield Teachers Association agreed in 1985 to a three-year contract. The contract calls for three successive 5.25% salary increases for each year of the contract as well as other non-economic changes. This contract will expire after the 1987-1988 school year.

As a result of years of overuse and inattention, due to a lack of funds, the condition of our athletic fields has deteriorated over the years and are now in less than satisfactory condition. In hopes of remedying this, the School Committee, at the April 1985 Town Meeting, asked for funds to begin a field rehabilitation program.

A special article asking for $120,000 was submitted to the Capital Outlay Committee, but due to other Town demands, was reduced to $40,000. This amount was approved by Town Meeting. The School Committee has chosen to set aside this amount and to seek an additional $40,000 at the April 1986 Town Meeting. This would provide an amount sufficient to rehabilitate the girls' field hockey field behind the Junior High School. The long-range plan is to continue to seek funding to develop a football practice field and to rehabilitate the fields behind Wheelock School.

As part of the effort to improve communications with the community, and to provide citizens with a convenient way to address the School Committee, a fifteen minute period has been set aside at the beginning of each meeting for public participation. This allows any citizen to address the Committee without the necessity of being on the agenda. The Committee hopes that residents will take advantage of this opportunity to keep the School Committee informed as to their concerns.

The success of our educational program in Medfield is due in no small part to the efforts of the many volunteers who provide such a valuable service. On behalf of the School Committee I would like to thank all of the volunteers who have done so much. Without them our programs would not have the richness and quality that we have grown accustomed to. Groups such as the School Boosters, the Music Boosters, Community School Association, the Lions Club, the Jaycees, the Medfield Women's Association, the League of Women Voters and many others, all deserve a vote of thanks from the community.

109 REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS

To the Citizens of Medfield:

Each new school year brings its own problems and challenges, and 1985 was no exception. The major thrust of this year's challenge was to continue to deliver quality education and to maintain staff enthusiasm and morale while adjusting to a grade 6, 7, 8 Middle School reorganization, reopening the Dale Street School for grades 4 and 5 and moving grades K-3 from the Memorial School to the Wheelock School.

The most notable effect on progress in the areas listed above was the loss of new young staff members. Reductions in staff have not only caused the removal of some non-tenured teachers from our classrooms, but also im- pacted a teacher who had been teaching here in Medfield for four years. The freshness and enthusiasm of new entries to the field of education is gone and anxiety about job security is high. Attention is now being turned to ways to revitalize and stimulate those staff members who remain.

The competition for resources continues as we try to meet our specific needs. There is steady pressure being placed on our fixed budget from rising costs. This is especially true in the areas of salaries and maintenance. If it were not for the continued decline in enrollment, the leveling off of energy costs and additional State aid, it would have been necessary for us to eliminate programs and to have markedly increased our class sizes.

The education community and the Town were saddened by the death of Mr. Charles Laverty on May 15, 1985. Mr. Laverty served Medfield, in various roles, for twenty-nine years. He was a teacher of Math, Typing, English and Latin. He always gave of himself for students, not only in the classroom, but also in student activities and counseling.

The accidental death on December 20, 1985, of Amy Fiske, a senior at Medfield High School, was a tremendous shock and saddened everyone. She continues to be in our thoughts and is greatly missed by the entire community. She was extremely talented in the arts and was active in the AFS Exchange Program. A scholarship has been established in her memory.

This year, as in the past, hundreds of hours of service and expertise were delivered by volunteers. These volunteers worked at all grade levels in support of educational programs and to meet the specific needs of children. The Medfield Public School System is indebted to each of these persons for giving of their time and talents. These volunteers play an important role in helping us to service the young people of Medfield.

The future looks promising. The School Administration and School Committee believe that the staff of well-prepared, dedicated and experienced teachers will continue to deliver quality education so that Medfield students may compete with confidence with their contemporaries.
