Town of Barrington Annual Report of the Town and School Officers for The r HARRINGTON NEW HAMPSHIRE for the Year endin DECEMBER 31, 2001 7^i-v^*"WMRtjii -x-\ Dedication In recognition of her many contributions to this community, including the generous donation of a conservation easement on her historic farm, we hereby dedicate this year's town report in memory of: Mrs Pauline "Polly" Boodey These pictures represent a few of the natural and historic resources found in our beautiful town. In September 2001, a natural resource inventory was conducted by the Natural Heritage Committee in conjunction with the Barrington Conservation Commission. The inventory will serve as a planning tool to prioritize more important lands for conservation, recreation and/or open space. With supporting data and map, the inventory helps to provide a clear picture of where these resources are located and why they are significant. In light of a rapidly expanding population and its accompanying development, we are mindful of the importance of these natural resources and how they define a town's character. Some properties provide a variety of resources that contribute to the sustainability of a community. One such property, known as the Tamposi property, was recently acquired by the town through a DES water Supply Protection Grant. The property, consisting of 1,378 acres of land, provides the headwaters of the Oyster River and a headwater stream of the Bellamy River and was acquired to protect all of our drinking water supplies. Three of the numerous wetlands on site contain rare communities of Atlantic white cedar and black gum. While hunting, hiking and other passive recreation activities will be allowed in perpetuity, motorized-wheeled vehicles are prohibited as a condition of the grant. The abundance of wildlife, along with the many educational benefits it will provide, clearly shows that this property is an ideal example of one of our more important natural resources. Front Cover: Pierce Barn Back Cover: Bellamy River at the Samuel A. Tamposi Water Supply Reserve Property «£. Ml WITH THANKS AND GRATITUDE.... This March, after 36 years as a Selectmen, George Musler will retire from the board. The fact that he served our community for so long is in itself amazing, but George continues to serve as the town's representative to the NH Legislature for the last 20 years as well. In 1964 when George was first elected to the Board of Selectmen, our population stood at 800, a far cry from the 7,475 residents we have today. At the time, there was no town office so Selectmen worked out of their homes or the nurse's office located at the school. Their wives often filled the positions of secretary or bookkeeper. The Selectmen assessed property on the first day of April every year with residents also being assessed for cattle, machinery, and stock in trade. One police officer was on duty patrolling the mostly dirt roads in town. Road maintenance was completed by anyone (including the selectmen!) who owned a pickup truck and snow plow. Today, seven police officers patrol roads that are mostly paved. A highway department consisting of eight employees maintains the 60 miles of roads with town owned equipment. George has been instrumental in many of the improvements to the town including the building of the original town offices (now the library/gym), the traffic light at the intersection of Routes 9 & 125 (and more recently the addition of turn signals here), the purchase of the first fire truck, police cruiser, and ambulance, the introduction of computers to the town office, the landfill closure, the new Public Safety Building and development of Emergency Management planning for the town. It is with deep gratitude and a degree of sadness that we say goodbye to George. Your countless contributions have shaped this very town and we thank you for the selfless devotion you have exhibited over these many years. We have indeed been fortunate to have you participate in Town affairs for so long. Simply said, we will miss you dearly George. 2001 Annual Report Town Of Barrington, New Hampshire Table of Contents I. Directory • Town Offices, Committees and Boards • Hours & Telephone Numbers II.

EPA will hold a public meeting to discuss the plan on Wednesday, June 24, at the Barrington Elementary School at 7:30 pm. The proposed cleanup calls for extracting contaminated ground water from the site, treating it to acceptable standards, and returning the treated water to the bedrock aquifer underneath the site. The plan also includes the improvement and continued operation of the drinking water treatment plant which draws water from nearby Swains Lake, and the removal of 12 barrels of incinerator ash from the site. The cleanup is estimated to take two to three years to design and construct and cost approximately $3,776,000. From June 25 to July 24, EPA will hold a public comment period on the Proposed Plan. Those interested in commenting on the plan should mail comments, postmarked no later than July 24, 1992 to: Darryl Luce, EPA Remedial Project Manager, U.S. EPA, JFK Federal Building, Boston, MA 02115.

  • The Department of Transportation Requests Placing This Item on the Consent Calendar. Authorize the Department of Transportation
    6^ THE STA TE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE , DEPARTMEr^OF TRANSPORTATION O^^porimeftt i^TmnsporinUon Victoria F. Sheehan Wiiliam Cass, P.E. Commissioner Assistant Commissioner Bureau of Highway Design March 23, 2020 His Excellency, Governor Christopher T. Sununu and the Honorable Council State House Concord, New Hampshire 03301 REQUESTED ACTION The Department of Transportation requests placing this item on the Consent Calendar. Authorize the Department of Transportation to amend Contract #4008939, with GM2 Associates, inc., Vendor #163283, for preliminary design services for the reconstruction of a 1.7-mile segment of NH 125 in the Towns of Plaistow and Kingston, by extending the completion date from May 31, 2020 to May 31, 2021, effective upon Governor and Council approval. The original agreement was approved by Governor and Council on May 2, 2018, Item #35. Time extension only, no new funding. EXPLANATION On May 2, 2018 the Governor and Council authorized the subject engineering services agreement(Item #35; copy of Resolution attached) in the amount of $1,698,325.32 to reevaluate the previously-conducted environmental review for the reconstruction of the unimproved 1.7-mile segment of NH 125 between Old County Road in the Town of Plaistow and Newton Junction Road in the Town of Kingston. The intent is to develop an alternative that will improve the safety and traffic operations of NH 125, while minimizing impacts on natural, cultural, and socio-economic resources. A preliminary design for this segment was developed for the Final Plaistow-Kingston 10044B Environmental Assessment/4(f) Evaluation in October 2005. Because the traffic growth anticipated by the Environmental Assessment has not occurred, the objectives of the engineering effort will be to reevaluate the recommendations of the Environmental Assessment in light of current traffic volumes and revised future projections, to modify the proposed action as appropriate for mobility along NH 125 as well as safe and efficient access to abutting properties, and to advance the project through preliminary and final design.
