10 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN

To the Citizens of Middleborough:

The report that follows provides a summary of relevant information concerning municipal affairs for the year 1984. We hope you will find it a useful means for understanding how our town has operated and what it has accomplished over the past year.

As this report demonstrates, the maintenance of town government is only achieved through the efforts of many citizens, most of whom donate their time to serve on the many town boards and committees. Their participation is vital to the proper conduct of town government. We thank those who have served and encouraged others not now involved to do so during the coming year.

During the past year, the Board has dealt with many issues of long term significance to the town. The SEMASS Agreement, the sewer extension grant and the grant enabling improvement of the town’s water system are all positive steps forward for the town and its citizens.

We thank the citizens of Middleborough for the trust and confidence they have placed in us and we look forward to another challenging year of growth and improvement

Respectfully,

Dr. Stephen D. Morris, Chairman Joseph E. Walker Frederick E. Eayrs, Jr. M. Victor Sylvia Moushah Krikorian

11 REPORT OF THE TOWN MANAGER

The year 1984 was one with many diverse happenings. One hundred per cent property evaluations, contract negotiations, Special Town Meetings, solid disposal waste contract, passenger rail service, and the receipt of grant money to mention a few.

The Assessor’s contracted with Finnegan Associates to do the real estate evaluations and to bring the town to 100% equalized evaluation. While not everyone will agree this happened, it was a step in the right direction and an attempt to tax everyone fairly and equally.

In June, under tax classification, Selectmen for the first time elected to have commercial, industrial, and personal property at a higher tax rate than residential and open space. The small list of commercial properties given as an example, indicated if all classes of property were to pay the same tax rate at 100% of value, most of those properties would have a lower tax bill. This only proves there was a disproportionment in our taxing of property for previous years and not all people were being treated equal as the law at that time required. This doesn’t seem to be the way new business should be treated, if, in fact, you want new commercial and industrial businesses. With Proposition 2Vi, the town needs all the new, high-tech business to help with the tax burden and to create new jobs. Only time will tell. You don’t kill and eat the chicken until you are sure the eggs will hatch! To attract new business, you need a labor market, good water and sewer system, low gas and electric rates, and a proper tax climate. You must look at more than just the immediate short-range situation. It’s the future we should be interested in.

The contract negotiations with the Police Department reached a stalemate and the State Dunlop Labor Commission took over jurisdiction. There were many sessions with the Dunlop Commission and some extended to late night hours. Deadlock continued but the Commission would not declare an impasse so the Town would then be allowed to implement its proposal. After a considerable cooling-off period, both parties agreed to sit down and negotiate without representation of legal counsel. A compromise was finally reached. The contract was signed. The contract for a three year period was funded in March at Special Town Meeting. A new contract will have to be bargained for for fiscal 1986.

The separation of the Gas and Electric Department under a new commission presented problems in negotiating the Municipal Clerk’s Contract. The G & E clerks were separated from the municipal clerks and each bargained individually and each settled. The Municipal Clerks contract was also approved for a three year retroactive period which will expire in fiscal 1986.

The signing of a twenty-seven (27) year contract with SEMASS for the disposal of the town’s solid waste culminated several month’s of negotiations. SEMASS, the proposed waste to energy plant in Rochester, needed a total of fifteen hundred tons of waste per day for an efficient operation. Middleborough was one of the first towns to sign a contract at a guaranteed tipping fee of $12.00 per ton with a guarantee of 9,000 tons per year. Approximately thirty- five (35) communities mostly in Southeastern Massachustts and Cape Cod have indicated an intent to join SEMASS. The proposed plant is estimated to cost in excess of one hundred fifty million dollars.

The town has since been confronted with a possible increase in tipping fees of $6-12.00 a ton. SEMASS claims that new requirements by the Department of Environmental Quality Engineering to install equipment to reduce the acid emissions from the plant will add to the cost. I believe most towns were of the opinion that all requirements had been met when

12 TOWN MANAGER

SEMASS received permits. It’s possible that the Town of Middleborough and others were mis¬ led even though the contract does state the contractors must share the added cost of any other requirements imposed by the State and Federal governments regarding air quality. If there is to be a large increase, the contract does not look as desirable as it did with the $12. tipping fee.

For the tirst time in many years, the passenger train service from Braintree to Cape Cod made stops in Middleborough to pick up and discharge passengers and provide a bit of nostalgia at the once bustling depot when commutors rode the rails to work on a daily basis. A number of persons have been involved in trying to implement a year round service. Hopefully, the summer months service schedule can be extended to provide such.

r Grants have continued to play an important part in local economy. Downtown revitaliza¬ tion, historical inventory, leak detection, sewer system, water savings, well rehabilitation, housing renovation, are among those received.

Funds from the Downtown Revitalization grant were set aside for the reconstruction and resurfacing of the so-called Centre Street parking lot behind the Centre Street stores. Even after the town was successful in dropping the lease requirements from fifteen to five years, one owner refused to consent and the town was faced with a possiblity of losing the grant money. Thankfully the State agreed to let the town use the money for the Town Hall parking lot. The plan was prepared for beautification with the planting of shrubs, trees, and grass areas and a redesign of the entrances and exits and drainage. Work began but was ter¬ minated due to the cold weather. It will be finished in the Spring.

Funds have also been set aside for a handicap ramp to the Tovfrn Hall.

The Town received a $60,000. grant for a sewer system planning study requiring only a 10% share from the Town. The grant will allow the study of the entire sewerage system and the preparation of a facility plan to evaluate problems within the existing system of some twenty miles of lines including three pumping stations. Most of the downtown sewer system dates back to the 1800’s and the other portions of the system from 1949-1971.

A leak detection grant of $9,650. and a water savings device grant of $3,500. both involv¬ ing matching funds were awarded to the Town.

The water system rehabilitation grant amounted to $356,000. and was a matching funds grant and represents the first of three phases to rehabilitate the entire system.

In addition, a 100% grant of $400,000. was received for a system to treat the two East Main Street wells for the removal of iron and manganese.

Another $400,000. Community Development Action Grant will provide a Route 44 sewer trunk line and lift station to serve the proposed industrial park and businesses at the Rotary traffic circle area.

Other grants included a $250,000. award under the Mass. Small Cities Program for housing renovations and downtown sidewalk improvement and a Main Street Program Grant of $20,000. The Town is finally being recognized by the State after many previous unsuccessful grant applications.

13 TOWN MANAGER

A pilot study on the Tispaquin Well indicated the feasibility of applying for a 100% State grant for a system to remove iron and managanese. The system would be similar to the one completed at the East Main Street wells for the same purpose. If the system were to be installed at Tispaquin, a second well could also be constructed and both could be treated.

The Mizaras Well Site in North Middleborough should be developed as a means of upgrading the water system and providing for the future development of North Mid¬ dleborough and strengthened fire protection.

For future assurance, the Wilbur property off Cherry Street should be purchased as a well site. Water needs have always been a top priority. With only one exception, the town wells are all gravel packed. Someday the town will need to impound water coming from the Fall Brook Stream as proposed in a former study. The town should continue to fight the regionalization of a water system. The big cities have problems and we should not be their solution.

A safety training program with a representative from our Workmen’s Compensation Insurance Company was implemented for members of the Department of Public Works. Onsite sessions have ben conducted. This has proven effective and the number of on-the-job accidents decreased immensely. A good three year accident experience is needed to decrease annual insurance costs. If we continue this program, we will be successful in lowering our insurance premiums.

The Cable T.V. franchise was awarded to Continental Cablevision of South Easton on the recommendation of the Cable T.V. Committee.

Some fifty Federal agencies, offices, and departments handle the 1,033 separate domestic aid programs covering everything from safe drinking water to improvements at the Little League fields. Most require extensive paper work and study, frequently the employment of costly consultants. During the many years I have been Town Manager the red tape has been growing. Initially growing so slowly it was negligible but today it is horrendous. Local government is becoming a delivery mechanism for State and Federal programs. Towns are being forced to grow to keep up with the mandates. Hopefully, the Federal government with newly elected legislators will turn the tide. Sometimes ignoring the programs is costly and sometimes join¬ ing them leads to other hazzards.

For big projects such as sanitary landfills or sewage treatment facilities, most com¬ munities lean heavily on costly consulting firms or less costly regional planning agencies. These agencies, in fact, apparently fill an expertise vacuum so solidly that they have richly become a new branch of government. Many Federal grants cannot be allocated to towns unless approved by regional planners. Small town government itself is becoming an anomaly. There is such a forward monentum toward regionalization it will be hard to turn back.

If you check to see the amount of funds that we have received from the government, you can just picture the actual amount of money that has been taken away from us so that we could perhaps get IOC back on a dollar. You multiply that by the number of cities and towns, approximately 13,000 in the United States, you can see why the Federal government has such a deficit.

14 TOWN MANAGER

You can thank our Finance Committee, Board of Selectmen, and Department Heads for keeping our costs down as reasonably as possible and getting a full dollars worth of value for each dollar spent.

Middleborough does not have to take a back seat to other towns. We have been pro¬ gressive. Sometimes slow to start but just being extra cautious.

I am very proud to have been a part of all this during the past twenty-three years. There are many programs to be continued and completed in the future. The Town has excellent Department Heads and employees constantly striving to maintain essential service levels and searching out and implementing newer and more efficient methods and procedures. “Cooperation” has been the key word in the development of our town. The Boards, Commit¬ tees, and dedicated employees have contributed an atmosphere of friendliness. In Mid¬ dleborough it will take all of us working together and sharing our ideas and understanding to continue improving the qulaity of life.

There are many outstanding citizens in our community who should be thanked for giving of their time working with various committees. We need many more volunteers.

157 FINANCIAL REPORTS REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ASSESSORS

To the People of Middleborough:

In 1984, for the first time historically, full and fair cash values were placed on all real estate and personal property in the Town of Middleboro. The Supreme Judicial Court had ruled that all the cities and towns in Massachusetts are to be at fair market value and the Department of Revenue must certify them. This was accomplished this year.

After impact notices, hearings, classification and submission of a recap sheet, the tax rate submitted by the Board of Assessors was certified by the Department of Revenue in August, 1984. Approximately 600 abatements were filed; these properties were viewed and appointments with the Assessors were held. After this task was completed, the fiscal 1985 update was already past due. The Assessors and staff opted to take on the workload of updating and placing of new values, classification and setting a tax rate for fiscal 1985, before the calendar year of 1984 was over, so that people could take advantage of the deduction allowed for federal taxes. The Assessors would recommend estimated bills be sent out if this situation arises again. The stress, workload and overtime took its toll on the Assessors and Office Staff.

The fiscal 1985 tax rate set by the Board of Assessors was certified by the Department of Revenue in December, 1984. This accomplishment is a first - two certifications, two classifications, two tax rates set, a full revaluation, 1,000 hearings, 600 abatements viewed and then an update with new values placed for fiscal 1985 - all in one year, 1984.

What the Board of Assessors and its office staff did was imperative financially for the town. If we as a department and the chief fund raiser for our town budgets, are to continue in a professional and timely manner, we need our OWN computer system and additional personnel We desperately need an Assistant to the Appraiser and a draftsman for our 250 Assessors’ Maps.

The inquiries at the counter and telephone and mail have made us aware of the fact that Middleboro is going through positive growth and change. Our Office Staff is beseiged every day. Our clerks are unsung heroes. They are required to give out information on all phases of assessing and properties. They take verbal abuse from some irate taxpayers. My thanks go out to them, for without their dedication, the Town of Middleboro would surely have had to borrow money and we would still be trying to set a tax rate for fiscal 1985. A special thanks goes to Dorothy Michael - Dedication Personified is this person. The Office Staff of Donna Fernandes, Donna Procknik and Barbara Erickson, who all performed above and beyond - You’re Great. This office could not carry out the jobs placed on them by statute without the cooperation of the Board of Selectmen, Finance Committee, Town Clerk and Accountant, Treasurer and Collector, Town Manager, Building Department, Health Department, Superintendent of Schools and the Gas and Electric Commissioners. Thank you all for your patience and understanding, and most of all for your support.

I would like to congratulate Assessor Mark Demers on taking and passing the four hour examination on Law and Administration, a prerequisite for Assessors set by statute. A further personal note of thanks to the Assessors, who during the past have found themselves between the demands placed on them by the State Department of Revenue, revaluation and updates of values. Your efforts and achievements merit the recognition and appreciation of all of us.

158 FINANCIAL REPORTS

You, the people of Middleboro, the taxpayers, the press deserve a thank you for putting up with listers, hearings and final values. You made our task less difficult with your patience and understanding. Middleboro has accomplished a task that was long overdue - “Uniformity of Assessments” in one given year. The Assessors say thank you to Claire Rockwood, Jane Lopes, and Maureen Boyle. Your positive reporting aided in making the reaching of 100% in Middleboro understood to the taxpayer.

The coming year will find us doing it all over again - updating to new values, with cer¬ tification and a full revaluation in 1986 ahead of us. We say “Stay with us.” It is a very difficult and unglamorous task we have before us all.

Signed,

Allen D. Demers, Assistant Assessor/Appraiser M.A.A.

REPORT OF THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

Honorable Board of Selectmen Town Hall Middleborough, Massachusetts 02346

Gentlemen:

The following is the Annual Report of the Department of Public Works for the year ending December 31, 1984. This is my first report as Middleborough’s Superintendent of Public Works being appointed on May 21,1984 to replace the retired Weldon Thomas. I would like to thank Welly for his help during the transition period to make it a smooth one.

My first order of business as the Superintendent of Public Works was to develop a 5 year road maintenance program. The document was submitted to the Board of Selectmen and Finance Committee on August 1,1984. Following several meetings the plan was endorsed in context and funding sources are being investigated to fund the first year of the plan. The roads of Middleborough are the Town’s economic lifeline and are essential to modern living. The maintenance of a high standard of pavement serviceability is a continuing task deserving the support of all the citizens of the Town of Middleborough.

The following is a list of projects done by the Middleborough Department of Public Works this past year:

Drainage improvements were provided on Old Center Street, Vernon Street, Plymouth Street, and Hathaway Street. Numerous other drainage problems exist around town, but funds are limited.

The Town Hall parking lot had improvements to the drainage and sewer systems made prior to the resurfacing of the parking lot. The foundation of the Old Bates School wes excavated and gravel put in its place to provide a stable foundation for the parking lot.

All town owned bridges were inspected by myself and Robert Cattley, Town Engineer, t j evaluate the structural integrity of the bridges. Three bridges are of immediate concern, they are: Plymouth Street at the Nemasket River; Vaughn Street; Nemasket Street. These bridges will be scheduled for repairs or replacement using state and town money. Emergency repairs were made at the Plymouth Street bridge but are only temporary with the bridge still closed to truck traffic. A new wooden plank deck was put on the Auburn Street bridge and should provide many more years of service without any major repairs.

The following town roads were leveled with hot mix and/or paved to get as many bad areas as possible before winter. They are: North Street, School Street, Oak Street, Pine Street, Wall Street and Walnut Street. Sections of France Street and Marion Road were sand sealed as a maintenance procedure.

State Aid money was spent on Thompson Street and Plymouth Street to level the travel surface with the hot mix. A grader was used in this process to stretch a ton of hot mix as far as possible in this leveling process. The rideability and ultimately the safety on these roads have been greatly increased.

163 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

The infra-red process of pavement maintenance was provided in many areas of town on trenches. This process worked very well and will continue as weather permits. It should be noted that the Gas Department and New England Telephone provided some of the funds to provide this maintenance procedure.

Another maintenance procedure which was done this year was the routing and filling of cracks in the pavement on Wood Street, South Main Street and North Main Street.

Sidewalks on Center Street and Alden Street were replaced. Repairs were made in numerous other locations.

Storm drainage was taken out of the sewer system at the Town Hall and Union Street School with the necessary changes being done by D.P.W. personnel.

Improvements were made to the sewer system on Mayflower Avenue by replacing 150 feet of sewer main. All that I have observed indicates that more time must be spent on main¬ tenance of the outside sewer system. In other words the sewer mains should be rodded and flushed on a yearly basis but manpower has limited the amount of work which can be done.

Roadside mainteiance is continuing with the cutting of grass, brush and the cutting back of shoulders.

The gravel roads in town were graded in the spring and fall.

The Recycle Center, in-town rubbish and the schools are picked up on Tuesdays and Fridays in addition to the normal weekly rubbish pickup.

This past year has seen major breakdowns with the D-7 and D-6 bulldozers at the landfill. These machines have both had extensive repairs done to them and should serve the Town of Middleborough a few more years before any major problems. The hope is that the SEMASS project becomes a reality and the tonnage presently being buried is drastically reduced.

The town continues to recycle large metal items at a local junk dealer. The money returned to the town does not pay for the equipment and labor to dispose of the items. The important matter is that we are not filling up the landfill with these bulky items.

The fall clean-up of leaves went very well this year with nearly all residents cooperating. The leaves were to be bagged and picked up on the normal rubbish day.

It should further be noted that if your regular rubbish day falls on a holiday that your rub¬ bish will be picked up the following work day (Monday thru Friday).

It an attempt to better manage the landfill over 3 acres of slopes have been clay capped and loam seed applied to control erosion. The gravel which has been used in the past for daily cover is now being screened to be used in future road jobs. Unsuitable materials are being used for daily cover.

The maintenance of the Oliver Mill Historical site is handled by the D.P.W., but is not funded and must come from the D.P.W. budget. I would request that a realistic budget be

164 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

developed this year to fund the work necessary. Work at this site includes mowing grass, painting, stone work, tree removal, weed removal and general care of the site.

Barnes Tree Service was hired to remove dead and diseased trees, remove stumps and for general care of the town trees.

The Peirce Trustees again purchased over 50 trees for the Tree Planting Program. Residents who wish to have a tree to plant in front of their property may request them through the Town Manager’s Office.

Traffic lines, cross walks, and parking lines were painted and all traffic signs replaced as needed. The town has been notified of a grant of $3,000.00 from the Governor’s Highway Safety Bureau. This striping machine will be used extensively on cross walks, parking area and stop lines with the D.P.W. personnel providing the labor.

It’s apparent from the inventory of D.P.W. vehicles that the systematic replacement of older vehicles has not taken place over the last few years. The department has 15-17 year old dump trucks which it is relying on for emergencies and snow removal. There are a couple of vehicles around 25 years old which are used daily. As part of a 5 year capital improvement program to upgrade the D.P.W. equipment some of this older equipment will be replaced.

One piece of equipment which the Town has talked about replacing for a couple of years is the mechanical street sweeper. The present sweeper is 10 years old with over 7,000 hours on it and is in desperate need of replacement. Factory representatives from the manufacturer have done a complete evaluation of the sweeper and have given the Town written estimates to overhaul and refurbish this sweeper at a cost of between $20 - 25,000.00 with only a 90 day guarantee on parts and labor. It would seem that it would be prudent on the part of the Town of Middleborough to replace this equipment at this time. The sweeper provides a clean shop¬ ping area for downtown as well as the residential neighborhoods in Middleborough. The entire town needs to be swept of winter sands.

Major repairs to the asphalt surface were done on Old Thomas Street upon petition of the residents of that street.

As your new Superintendent of Public Works a lot of time over the last 8 or 10 months has been evaluating the different divisions of the Department of Public Works so a com¬ prehensive plan can be prepared to strengthen and improve the services provided by the Department. These changes aren’t going to be made overnight but will be phased in as the need arises.

Not only do the roads show a lack of maintenance but from problems which materialize daily it would seem more emphasis should be towards the general maintenance of the Town’s entire infrastructure (water, sewer, etc.) to keep the highest quality of service.

As time permits, both long and short term plans will be instituted to make the necessary changes to up grade all service under the department. A constant effort will be made on my part to secure both State and Federal funds in this effort to make a better Department of Public Works.

165 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

I might add that with the upswing in commercial and industrial development in Middle- borough I have devoted a lot of time in evaluating the potential impact on the town services. Orderly development is a must so that services can be upgraded in a timely fashion.

I would personally like to thank the men and women of the Department of Public Works who have played a major role in making the Department of Public Works the best department to work for in the Town of Middleborough. I am proud of everyone of you and you should be of yourself.

Respectfully submitted,

Leighton F. Peck, Jr. Superintendent of Public Works

REPORT OF THE WATER DIVISION - 1984

In reporting of the Water Division for 1984, there are two major projects which must be mentioned. The first is the Vyredox system at the East Main Street Wells. The second is the on-going rehabilitation at the East Grove Street Complex.

The East Main Street wells have had a high iron problem for many years. This past year, a method known as the Vyredox System is being employed to hopefully reduce the iron pumped from these wells. This system breaks down into three components, the monitoring and aera¬ tion and pumping unit, the injection piping system, and the injection well system. Water from the distribution system passes through the monitoring unit, where it is aerated at a specific rate for each well. The aerated water is pumped through the injection well piping system to which-ever well is being recharged for iron removal. This water is high in Oxygen and is dis¬ tributed into the ground-water aquifer surrounding the well being treated. This water reacts with the iron in the aquifer, to change the iron into a non-soluble iron which remains in the aquifer and thus is not picked up by the water being pumped into the distribution system. The water at East Main Street #1 is responding nicely to the treatment. The Water at East Main #2 is responding, but at a slower rate than East Main #1. Ground Water Associates and Layne, New England are still monitoring and making adjustments at this time. It is believed that after the system is regulated properly a water of good quality will be able to be available for the distribution system and the water customers.

The future cost of the Vyredox will have to be measured in three-fold. The first, the cost to operate and maintain the system and the equipment. The second, the amount of water needed from the distribution system to treat the water from the wells. And lastly the cost in time and money for personnel to operate and monitor the system.

The second project is the on-going Rehabilitation for The East Grove Street Complex. Phase 1 has been completed. This was the rebuilding of the Slow Sand Filter complex. The aeration piping for the coke resilator has been completely rebuilt by water personnel. All the control gates for the subsiding basins, sand filters and regulatory building were replaced with new gates, except the large drain valve for the sub-siding Basin. It was rebuilt by station per¬ sonnel. A new high-low water control alarm system has been installed, and all related lighting and control wiring has been either replaced or repaired as needed. In the future the sand will have to be replaced and possibly the coke in the resilator.

Phase 2, replacement of the pumping equipment is now in the process of being cost analyzed, and put out to bid. Specifications are being worked up. If any funds are left over from phase 2, these funds will be applied to the Electrical work needed in the station itself.

The Bascule dam is being up-graded and equipment replacement has been achieved. The biggest expense is going to be rebuilding the Control piston in the near future.

A 200 ft. extension of the water main on Old Center St. was installed to service new homes. This was an 8” ductile iron main, extended from the 6” on the Pleasant St. end of the line. A gate for future extension of the water main was added at this time.

175 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

This year for the first time, the hydrant and meter program was able to expand. The Finance Committee, the Board of Selectmen and the Town Manager are to be thanked by the Water Division for approving the increases requested, so that we can improve the programs and up-date the hydrants and meters. Also an article, calling for 50 new hydrants, was passed and should help eliminate a considerable part of the oldest hydrants, some dating back to 1885. Speaking about 1885, the year that the water department began, 1985 will make 100 years of operation for the Water Department.

There are many more projects that could be mentioned in this report; All of them equally important, all of them on-going improvements or additions to the Maintenance or Pumping Station systems. For convenience of space, I will conclude my report with only one other item to be considered for the immediate future. This is the addition of personnel to the division. An additional man will be needed at both the pumping stations and the man taken from the main¬ tenance crew should be returned. The additional work load for both sections can only be properly executed when the personnel is sufficient to complete the work load. An additional man in the maintenance section would only return us to the original number, which we had before cuts were made.

My best wishes go out to Weldon Thomas, the retired D.P.W. Supt. We wish him a happy and healthy retirement, and thank him for his knowledge and assistance, in helping the water division in the past. In the present, I wish to welcome Leighton Peck as the new D.P.W. head, and hope his future with the Town is a productive and happy one.

Respectfully yours,

Stuart T. Peak, Jr. Water Superintendent

177 SERVICES AND UTILITIES REPORT OF THE WASTEWATER DIVISION

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen Town Hall Middleborough, Mass. 02346

Gentlemen:

The following is the annual report of the Wastewater Division for calendar year ending December 31, 1984.

Department of Public Works employees completed construction of the three stall garage located here at the facility. The building is used to house Sewer Department equipment needed for collection system maintenance and emergency service.

Due to a lack of department personnel, the collection system inspection, cleaning and flushing program, which was started the previous year, was very limited. Areas that had a previous history of problems were worked on and the remainder of the system received no attention. The above mentioned program is sorely needed and can only be successfully done by increasing the staff in the department.

The day to day operations at the wastewater facility are okay but it is becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with the scheduled maintenance program here at the plant. We are finding ourselves spending more and more time out in the field removing blockages in the collection system and repairing problems at the pumping stations. We had scheduled a number of maintenance projects for the good weather but we could never find time to com¬ plete all of them.

The contract for engineering services for the design of the sewer extension and pumping station for the rotary area was awarded to Hoyle, Tanner & Associates of Burlington, Mass, in December of 1984. It is hopeful that all phases of design engineering and field construction will be completed within the next twelve months.

We are currently in Phase I (a planning advance) for an inflow and infiltration study implemented for the town by Whitman & Howard, American Digital Systems were here to monitor the flow for several weeks at thirteen seperated locations within the collection system. The data will be compiled and used by Whitman & Howard for Phase II when this year all monies being spent for the sewer system evaluation will be eligible for 90% reimbursement by the Division of Water Pollution Control.

An E.P.A. quality control program for wastewater analysis was conducted in the laboratory. All tests needed for one N.P. D.E.S. permit were included. Laboratory results were within the available limits set forth by the E.P.A. Water Department Coli tests were run bi-weekly and an occasional coli test was done for the Board of Health.

I want to thank all the personnel in the Sewer Division, Department heads and employees of the Department of Public Works for their continued support. Without their help, many of the problems that occurred throughout the year would not have been overcome.

Respectfully submitted,

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:

I hereby submit the annual report of the Board of Health for the year ending December 31, 1984.

The Board of Health’s authority is derived from the statutes of the Commonwealth. The Board has the duty to determine public health needs in the community and to organize and coordinate services meeting the needs in an effective manner. The State Sanitary and Environmental codes provides the means for the Board’s professional staff. Health Officer and Public Health Nurses, to evaluate and deal with a broad range of community health, sanitation and environmental problems.

The success of the well children’s immunization clinics was demonstrated by the State Division of Communicable Disease survey report indicating that 98 percent of Middleborough children entering school were protected against diptheria/pertussis and tetanus. The survey also reported that 99 percent of the children were protected against polio, measles/mumps and rubella. For the tenth year a triviral (measles/mumps/rubella) vac¬ cine was used exclusively allowing immunization against the three diseases in a single clinic visit.

During 1984 major shortages of diptheria/pertussis/tetanus vaccine occured in the United States due to certain pharmaceutical companies stopping distribution of the product Massachusetts is fortunate that vaccine is produced locally by the State Department of Public Health’s Biological Laboratory. Vaccines manufactured by the Biologic Laboratory are traditionally distributed at no cost for community clinic use. The Board of Health also maintains a vaccine supply depot for distribution of the State manufactured vaccine to local physicians.

No verified cases of tuberculosis occurred in Middleborough during 1983, according to the State 1984 survey report. 5 cases were recorded in Plymouth County. The State tuber¬ culosis rate decreased 23 percent, a significant reduction to 6.78 active cases per 100,000 population. The reduction is said to relate to a Federal policy change for refugees and effec¬ tive State and local contact follow-up procedures.

The Rabies Clinic, co-sponsored with the Pocksha Canine Club, was attended by 316 household pets. Since confirmed cases of cat rabies now exceeds cases in dogs, cat owners were encouraged to bring their pet to the clinic. Pet immunization provides a very important protective barrier for humans against exposure to the disease known to occur in certain wild animal populations. Pocksha Club members, involved in the Rabies Clinic for 2 decades, should be commended for their substantial commitment to this public health endeavor.

1984 was a busy year in regard to environmental health matters. Completion of Route 495, accompanied by a reduction in interest rates, resulted in a substantial growth wave, both commercial and residential. The Health Officer was directly involved with site examination procedures required under State law before a building permit may be issued. Soil examinations were conducted on 160 lots. The location and installation of each on-site sewage disposal system must be such that with responsible maintenance it will function in a satisfactory manner and will not create a nuisance. 134 Disposal Works System Installation Permits were issued. System installations were inspected to insure that required construction standards were maintained.

180 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

The soil examination and permit process procedure generated revenue of $4,820.00.

87 food related facilities were issued food service establishment permits during 1984. Facilities requiring such license under the Sanitary Code include restaurants, food preparation kitchens, luncheonettes, taverns, catering and mobile food facilities whether private, public, commercial or non-profit. Regulation of establishments preparing food is a health measure designed to protect the public against unsafe practices not uncommon in the food industry.

Inspection of food facilities provides opportunity for the Health Officer to review proper food handling procedures with food service personnel. High standards of environmental sanitation and personal cleanliness must be maintained if the public is to be protected. Unfor¬ tunately violations occur.

Principal unsafe practices observed include foods left at room temperatures for extended periods, inadequate or marginal refrigeration temperatures, a failure to sanitize utensils and exposure of food to flies and ther airborne contamination. Swabs of utensils were taken for bacteriological analysis. The analysis report confirms or reputes the adequacy of utensil sanitation procedures.

Unfortunatley the Health Officer’s substantial involvement with the building site approval process reduced to some extent the food facility inspection effort.

Substandard housing as it relates to defective plumbing, water supply, sewage back-up’s, inadequate heat and defective heating equipment, egress and structural defects, prompted a considerable number of tenants complaints to the Board of Health.

The State Sanitary Code, Chapter II, “Minimum Standards of Fitness for Human Habitation” provides detailed standards for safe and sanitary housing. The code also pro¬ vides a detailed manadated procedure for investigating complaints and obtaining compliance.

Investigation and inspection consumed a considerable amount of time. Almost all com¬ plaints were determined to be valid and many were of serious nature. Owners allowing rental property to deteriorate affect the total neighborhood. Court action was initiated when orders to effect repairs were not complied with.

Increased incidence of private illegal dumping, with and without property owners con¬ cent, occured during the year. The instances involved disposal of commercial waste originating from outside the community. Other violations involved dumping of household rubbish along the highway and on private property. Litigation was necessary to obtain removal of a vast amount of railroad ties dumped on commercial property in Rock Village. The threat of litiga¬ tion resolved other violations and one matter is pending in the court.

The summer environmental program included inspection of children’s recreational camps, family campgrounds, public swimming pools and bathing beaches at the several pond locations.

All samples of pond water collected for bacteriological analysis met state standards for bathing beaches.

181 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

The up-dated children’s recreational camp code required a pre-season inspection of camp facilities allowing an opportunity to review code requirements with the camp directors. Follow-up inspections were made after the camps were operational. The camp inspection pro¬ cedure was a cooperative effort by the public health nurse and health officer with the nurse assigned to review camp medical records and procedures. The public health nurse provided considerable expertise and back-up for the camp nurses. The nurse’s inspection report addressed concerns that were directed to camp management. Appropriate compliance action was taken.

87 milk licenses were issued for the wholesale and retail sale of milk products. Improperly processed or stored milk is a quickly perishable product resulting from bacterial action. There is always a danger of milk contamination from inadequate sterilization of equip¬ ment and careless practices by workers. Bacteriological examination of milk samples, collected at random, provided a good indication of quality as it relates to appropriate code dating and safety of the product. Dealers and producers were informed of the results of the sampling process.

The Board of Health issued 558 permits and licenses during 1984. Total revenue collected, $20,245.00.

PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE’S REPORT

The year of 1984 continued to be a very active one with combined home visits of our Public Health Nurses and Certified Nurse’s Assistant totaling 2,580. Of this total, 2,241 home visits were to persons 65 years or older. The types of visits made encompassed a wide variety of services as follows:

Newborn and Post Partum visits, Maternal Child Health, Acute Care visits for those without health insurance, Chronic Care visits, health Supervision and Counseling, Home Health Aide services, Communicable Disease Investigations, Social and Health Counseling including Crisis Intervention, Child Abuse and Neglect visits.

Our office hours continued to be 9-10 A.M. and 4-5 P.M. Monday through Thursday and 9-10 A.M. and 3-4 P.M. on Fridays. These sessions were well attended by citizens desiring Flu and/or Pneumonia Vaccines during the appropriate season, allergy injections, social and health counseling, unscheduled immunizations, Mantoux tests, hypertension screening, blood work and we responded to many telephone calls requesting information or assistance.

Our Hypertension Clinics were held weekly on Monday and Wednesday 9-9:30 A.M. and 4-5 P.M. A small increase in attendance was shown again this year. We invite persons of all ages to participate in this worthwhile clinic.

The Immunization Clinic was held on the last Tuesday of each month except December. Despite its only publicity has been via our newborn visits and word of mouth, the clinic is well attended. If children are ill on the day of the clinic, mothers are urged to contact us as soon as they are well when an appointment may be set up. If transportation is a problem, please contact us for a home visit. Parents are requested to report any unusual reactions from the vaccines immediately.

Mantoux tests, skin tests for detection of T.B. exposure, were administered weekly on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday during our office hours. Persons found to be positive reac¬ tors were referred to Plymouth County Hospital for x-rays and blood work and this depart-

183 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

ment was responsible for testing all of his or her close contacts. If a person needs chemotherapy, we will follow this person’s progress frequently, to be sure that the medication is well tolerated and he or she is able to carry on their usual daily activities.

On the third Thursday of the month from 10-11 A.M., a Hypertension and Health Coun¬ seling Clinic was held at the Council on Aging Center. During appropriate seasons, Flu and Pneumonia vaccines were made available.

There has been a considerable increase of blood testing this year indicating that people are beginning to take more interest in their health. Appointments may be made for any Friday morning by calling our office.

Eighty children in a nursery school were screened for pediculosis and we were at times called upon to assist the school nurses in combating this Public Health nuisance which seems to surface at least 2-3 times per year. We ask parents to check their children frequently throughout the year as anyone may become infested.

Lead screening sessions were held in three nursery schools thanks to their efficient staff. Ninety children were tested. Lead tests were also available at our monthly immunization clinics. State officials recommend that toddlers thru 6 years should be tested every year.

Health records and medical facilities of the Children’s Recreational Camps were inspected by the Public Health Nurse. Mantoux tests were administered to counselors when necessary. Children should be fully immunized and their records completed before entering the camps. Medical facilities within the camps need to comply with the state code.

A Visual Acuity and Glaucoma Clinic was held jointly with the Middleboro Lions Club. Forty-one persons took part in the screening. A special thank you to Dr. G. Savard of Middle¬ boro and Dr. Moritz of Canton for their kind assistance.

Our public Flu Clinic this fall was attended by 232 persons. The Public Health Nurses administered flu vaccine to patients who desired it in the eight Nursing and Rest Homes in town. 726 doses of vaccine were administered this flu season. We are extremely grateful to Fr. Vincent McCarthy for allowing us to use the Sacred Heart Parish Hall for many years, to Mr. Henry Junior for his helping hand at the hall and to Mary Sarkes, R.N. for volunteering her time to assist us at the clinic. Many thanks!

A Diabetic Screening Clinic was held in our office with 41 persons participating in this useful test.

Both Public Health Nurses continue to be agents of the Salvation Army in this area and, whenever possible and/or necessary, we provide funds for persons in need of emergency food. This fund is not meant to be used for a supplement to one’s income.

Lack of funding prevents us from beginning new programs but our staff will continue to provide the present services to the best of our ability.

Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to serve the people of Middleborough and a special thanks to all who assisted and supported us in any way during the year 1984.

REPORT OF THE ANIMAL INSPECTOR

Honorable Board of Selectmen and Citizens:

This last year as animal inspector has been a very busy year.

We had a confirmed case of Eastern Equine Encephalitis. All horses and pony owners should make sure to have equines innoculated each and every spring.

I spent a great deal of time in court and at County Commissioners Chambers to get a kennel license revoked and closing a kennel with a contagious disease known as scabies.

Also many trips were made to Jamaica Plain to the State Laboratory to have animals tested for diseases.

All animals involving bites were quarantined in accordance with section 31 and section 155 of Chapter 111 of General Laws.

A fowl flu alert was also advised to all fowl owners in the area.

William R. Wyatt Animal Inspector REPORT OF THE DOG OFFICER

To the Honorable Board and Citizens:

I, William R. Wyatt, hereby submit my 9th annual Town Report as Police Department Dog Officer for the calendar year ending December 31, 1984.

We had a total of two thousand five hundred twenty seven (2,527) dogs licensed by the Town Clerk’s office. NOTE: all dogs 3 months of age or older must be licensed. Again this year we have had problems getting people to license their dog(s) before going to court, needlessly paying court fees plus fines and also losing a day’s pay to appear at the court. In 1985 dog licenses will be available at the Town Clerk’s office on or around April 2nd. In order to get the license you will need to produce proof of your dog having had a rabies shot. There will be a rabies clinic in early spring that will be advertised in our local papers.

When dog license reminder cards come out, if you no longer have your dog please notify the Town Clerk’s office at 947-0780. It is the responsibility of the dog owner to make a call if your dog had died or for some reason you no longer have it.

A problem this year has been an increased number of complaints about dogs running deer. Many times owners will say, “Not my dog” or “I didn’t know we had deer in this area,” BUT dogs do get into packs and they do run deer. As a result of this, there has been a State

186 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

wide leash law put into effect. The law also states that any person in law enforcement such as dog officers, natural resource officers, or police officers, have the authority to shoot to kill any animal caught in the act of pursuing a deer.

A total of two thousand three hundred ninety (2,390) animal complaints were answered last year and they are logged at the Police Department. Any dog picked up with a license on, had their owners notified and they paid a leash law fine and board fee of $3.00 per day. Fees are then turned over to the Town Treasurer’s office with records of same.

As in past years we can again say we NEVER had any dogs go to or delivered to any institution. It is now my pleasure to say that delivery of dogs to institutions are against the law.

In closing my report I would like to thank the people of Middleboro for their continued support of our shelter. Also a special thank you to a special person - Mrs. Myrtle B. Brawn - who has given special meals to all animals in the shelter for the holidays for the last 9 years that I have been here.

REPORT OF SELF HELP, INCORPORATED TOWN OF MIDDLEBOROUGH

Self Help, Inc., is Greater Brockton’s and Attleboro’s anti-poverty agency dedicated to improving the quality of life of limited-income individuals and families, and making all segments of the community responsive to the needs of limited-income, disadvantaged and minority needs.

The 1984 school year at Bristol-Plymouth was another successful one. This success was due to a great extent from the support of the city and towns which represent the district. The school as usual operated under maximum enrollment of 775 high school students.

Eighty-three percent of the Senior class participated in the cooperative program at the school and ninety percent of our graduates were placed in a job situation at the conclusion of their educational requirements.

REPORT OF THE SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES

Board of Selectmen

Gentlemen:

The following is my 25th annual report as Sealer of Weights and Measures for the Town of Middleborough.

During the year 1984, 428 weighing and measuring devices were inspected. Of this number, 45 were determined to be out of tolerance. After adjustment 412 devices were sealed. 5 scales and 2 gasoline dispensing devices, determined to be worn out, were condemned and removed from service.

Total receipts in the amount of $1,162.80 were collected and turned in to the Town Treasurer.

Spot-checks of prepackaged commodities, offered for sale in the marketplace, were made to evaluate weight, measure and pricing. Commodities were also inspected to deter¬ mine compliance with unit pricing regulations.

Increased use of electronic weighing and measuring devices, replacing direct-reading mechanical equipment complicates the inspection effort.

191 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

An effective weights and measures administrative program is vital to protect the interests of all parties involved in commercial transactions.

REPORT OF THE LIBRARY BOARD OF TRUSTEES

To the President of the Board and Library Trustees Middleborough Public Library

We are here, again, at the end of an old year. It has been a very busy one. We were not able to accomplish quite as much as we had hoped to due to a personnel shortage. But, we have maintained most of our usual services.

Early in the year, we accepted, with regret, the resignation of Mrs. Lisa Howard. She left us in order to be at home with her new daughter and her little boy. We all wish Lisa and her family the best.

Mr. Richard Ray, our custodian resigned from his position at the end of December. It was with regret that we accepted his resignation. We want to thank him for all those years of ser¬ vice over and above the call of duty. We wish him health and happiness in his retirement.

Mr. William Freitag was hired to fill the custodian position starting January J, 1985.

The Children’s room continues to be a busy place. Story hours are held on Fridays with a good attendance. When Mrs. Howard left us, we had to discontinue the showing of films on Wednesday afternoon. We were sorry to do this, but, we didn’t have personnel enough to handle it. We hope to continue them at a future date as they were well attended and enjoyed by the young audiences.

We have been building a collection of large print books which are greatly appreciated bv people with eye difficulties. We also have added a medium sized illuminated magnifier and a high-intensity table lamp for those who need “a little help” in seeing.

Mrs. Lillian Rebell, from Plymouth County Extension has continued her talks on the first Friday of each month. Mrs. Rebell puts a lot of effort into these programs. They are helpful to all age groups, people on diets, older citizens, and especially, to young mothers with families to feed. Thank you, Mrs. Rebell.

REPORT OF THE CONSERVATION COMMISSION

To the Honorable Board:

1984 has lived up to all expectations concerning the Wetlands Protection Act workload. For the past 7 or 8 years, it has been apparent that the development of Middleborough would push all the Town’s boards to their limit.

The Middleborough Conservation Commission’s responsibilities under the Wetlands Protection Act, MGL Ch. 131, s. 40, are to regulate any activities which involve removal, filling, dredging or other alteration of wetlands or water bodies and land bordering or affecting wetlands or water bodies. These laws were promulgated to protect public and private water supplies, groundwater supply, flood control, storm damage prevention, prevention of pollu¬ tion, protection of shellfish and fisheries.

Under this Act the Conservation Commission had 11 Requests for Determination of Applicability filed. The Board found 8 filings to be positive (requiring a Notice of Intent) and 3 to be negative. Subsequently, the terms of one positive determination has been challenged by the applicant and been referred to the DEQE for an Adjudicatory Hearing.

The Commission received requests for and issued 4 Certificates of Compliance this past year.

The Board has acted on 21 Notice of Intents (wetlands filings) in 1984. One filing was Withdrawn, two were denied and 18 were issued Orders of Conditions with which to proceed.

The Board issued 19 Enforcement Orders under the terms of the Act. These Orders have been instrumental in getting necessary filings submitted to the Commission and DEQE. 194 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

Any proposed project within 100’ of a wetland, as described under the Act, should be brought to the Board’s attention. This would make many Enforcement Orders un-necessary. We meet the first and third Thursday of each month for regular business and post an additional meeting for Committee business. The public is encouraged to attend. There are Associate Memberships and the Rivers Advisory Committee available for those who would like to work with the Board.

The amount of time devoted to on-site inspections and meetings has risen drastically. Along with this increase, the administration of the Commission business such as: typing of Orders, Placing legal notices, co-ordinating meetings and fielding questions from the public has kept pace with the caseload. It becomes obvious that qualified personnel are at a pre¬ mium. This also shows the wisdom of the Commission’s 1978 Town Report, wherein it was noted that consideration should be given to the hiring of a full time employee to help administer the day to day work, oversee improvements to Town and/or Commission land, assist in on-site inspections, co-ordinate professional reports and meetings, documents and co-ordinate legal meetings and assist the Commission in the enforcement of the Act.

Again, as in preivous years, the Rivers Advisory Committee has continued to work on Phase I of the Nemasket River Environmental Corridor. This will lead to a noticable improve¬ ment of the River in the form of more canoe access, increased fish run and cleaning the River at Wareham St.

A generous contribution of labor and a fine community spirit was given to the Town by the Boy Scouts of Middleborough. They cleaned up the Washburn Conservation area along Wood St. and deserve thanks for a fine job.

The Commission also hosted a public symposium on wetland plant ID in conjunction with the Mass. Assoc, of Conservation Commissions. This was followed by a field trip to put in practice the new found information imparted in the evening lecture. Approximately 100 people took this opportunity to learn these skills.

In a positive note, the Town has been notified of the Commissions jurisdiction, along wit h Halifax, in a long standing jurisdictional dispute.

The Board accepted the resignation of Robert Lessard, John Santin, Jr., and Robert Emery. Bob Lessard was extremely active with the Board for 4 years. John and Bob Emery served for 1 year. With the added work the Board is seeing now, their participation will be missed.

We have added three new members. Ray Wood, Norman Record and Russell Thomas were appointed to the Commission by the Town Manager. They bring diverse backgrounds and fresh viewpoints with them.

195 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

The Middleborough Conservation Commission looks forward to continued co-operation of both Town Boards and citizens during the ensuing year.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE MIDDLEBOROUGH HISTORICAL COMMISSION

The Middleborough Historical Commission has had an exciting and productive 1984.

The Commission was invited to apply for a grant from the National Park Service through the Massachusetts Historical Commission. Janet Griffith was asked by Chairman Charles Chase to write the proposal. Monies for the project were requested and received from the Peirce Trustees.

Charles Chase resigned from the Commission and Craig Pasco was appointed to replace him. Janet Griffith was elected Chairman, Jay Thompson, Secretary and Charles Adams, Treasurer.

The Baptist Church Multi-Purpose Youth Center was presented a Beautiful Building Award at their dedication services on April 15, 1984. Charles Chase had initiated these awards before his term had expired.

A letter was received from the Massachusetts Historical Commission accepting our pro¬ posal for the grant. After a review of the project, a subcommittee was formed consisting of Jay Thompson and Janet Griffith to pursue the actual writing of the full application with Charles Chase as advisor. We gratefully acknowledge the assistance and guidance of Sharon Travers- Gay during this time.

196 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

A motion to participate in Preservation Week, May 13-19, was unanimously voted. Posters for the observance were donated by the Winthrop-Atkins Company. A display of historic memorabelia was shown in the Middleborough Trust Company Loan Office window to increase public awareness. Lyman Butler and the Commission members presented a slide demonstration of historic properties and sites in the Town Hall Auditorium. With the help of the Middleborough Historical Association, signs for the historic homes were presented at that time along with a Beautiful Building Award to Maggie’s Hair Mill for the restoration and pre¬ servation of the Atty. Everett Robinson Law Office.

The Commission was represented at the ribbon cutting ceremonies for the Marcy Building and the Mello Block supporting the Department of Community Development’s efforts in their Downton Revitalization project.

During the summer the Middleborough Gazette and the Mayflower Co-operative Bank produced an Historic “Sights” Map of Middleborough which had been prepared by the Commission.

The Massachusetts Historical Commission announced that Middleborough was one of the few towns to have successfully written a grant that was accepted.

After careful screening and interviews, Kaye Flynn and Gretchen Schuler were hired. The project started when a contract was signed at the Town Hall by the Chairman of Selectmen, Dr. Stephen Morris, on November 16, 1984. The project entitled, “Middle¬ borough Intensive Inventory of Historic Properties”, will survey historic sites, monuments, cemeteries and structures in our town and continue through the first part of 1985.

In the fall we welcomed Dorothy Michael who took the place of Dix Shevalier.

The Middleborough Historical Commission is looking forward to another rewarding year through the efforts and continued generous assistance of everyone in the community.

REPORT OF THE COUNCIL ON AGING

So many events happened at the COA throughout the entire year that it is difficult to dare to recollect without fear of deleting any one significant detail. Suffice it to say at the onset, the real gains were made by those receiving services, who in many cases, had nearly given up hope. Most of all, the COA was privileged in having been enabled to give assistance which resulted in a better quality of life for people, not only elderly but younger as well.

The COA moved into the forefront of leadership during 1984 in having been honored by the Commonwealth Department of Elder Affairs request to permit the director to serve as a member of the Editorial Board of the department. This group has been charged by the Secretary of Elder Affairs to develop a COA Manual which will be utilized throughout the com¬ monwealth as a standardized training tool. In addition the director also serves as part of the departments trainingstaff in southeastern Massachusetts and as a resource consultant to many area COA’s.

The director was selected for the fourth year as Chairman of the Grants and Contracts Committee of Old Colony Elderly Services, Inc. and newly appointed as a member of the Pro¬ grams and Planning Committee for the same Home Care Corporation, which serves twenty- three (23) cities and towns in SE Massachusetts.

MCOA director continues to serve the town Selectmen as their appointed primary rep¬ resentative to Old Colony Elderly Services, Inc. (the fifth largest Home Care Corporation in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts) and as alternate representative to the Old Colony Planning Council Area Agency on Aging Region IV-A. In the fall of 1984 the Selectmen appointed the COA Director to serve as town representative to GATRA (Greater Attleboro/Taunton Region Transit Authority).

As a result of direct involvements by the COA, the elderly of the town have been able to enjoy many benefits and services which in many communities of Massachusetts are still in the planning or embryonic stages of development. We look forward with eager anticipation toward months ahead which will surely become progenators of the future as the town undergoes its metamorphic stages toward becoming a new focal point in Southeastern Massachusetts for economic growth.

The COA recognizes that the changes of lifestyle will become inevitable and will continue to strive with a planning process designed to prepare for the future needs for elderly services.

The fastest growing segment of the towns elder population continues to be in the middle seventies bracket; with a new phenomenum of second generation Seniors developing faster than can be counted. What used to be the exception - sixty year old children with eighty year old parents - is now the rule. Projection of needs for the next five years are already prefaced by 1) the critical housing needs for elderly with more difficult periods ahead for this age group as the competition for affordable housing develops with the town growth! 2) Cutbacks in entitlement programs for elders will mean a need for supplemental income opportunities thus creating the need to develop new concepts by the COA to meet this need.

198 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

Our Senior Aides now provide short and long term service for nearly 1,000 townspeople requiring longer hours by the director to make referrals and follow-up as the Outreach Staff continues to uncover more new clients in need of services. The COA has reached a new plateau of needing a third full-time position - a Case Management/Welfare Coordinator. During the past five years and more specifically during 1984 the COA has found itself being called upon more frequently than ever by people of all ages for assistance.

In its ancillary role as an Energy Application Center for the town (all ages) we constantly find young families, elders, as well as middle age individuals in need of medical/financial/ welfare assistance, mental health counseling or housing assistance.

As an active USDA Food Distribution Center the COA now serves in excess of 1,000 individuals and families monthly.

The COA was delighted with the approval of the townspeople in voting to permit the Town Selectmen to seek membership in GATRA (Greater Attleboro/Taunton Regional Authority). The ramifications of that decision will be that the COA will be able to reduce its transportation budget by 75% and at the same time remove the need for the COA to request replacement funds for vehicles when needed from future budget requests; thus saving the town considerable sums of money by “re-cycling” its annual transportation budget funds! In the future, COA new transportation vehicles will be replaced at 10% of cost using funds acquired through its own resources rather than town funds; as long as the GATRA project continues.

The COA has been able to provide many diverse programs and services for benefit and enjoyment of elders through the generosity and assistance of many groups and individuals: Rotary Club and Kiwanis Club of Middleboro/Lakeville, Lobl Fund, Howard Maxim Fund, Improved Order of Redmen, Ocean Spray Cranberry Co., Legal Assistance Corporation of SE Massachusetts, Mary MacDonald Hearing Testing Services, Old Colony Elderly Services, Inc. Case Management, Nutrition, Senior Aide Programs, Old Colony Planning Services Area Agency on Aging Region IV-A, Projects Review Committee and Ombudsmen Program, Com¬ monwealth of Massachusetts Department of Elder Affairs Formula Grant Programs, Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic and Development District, GATRA, South Shore Community Action Program, Inc. U.S. Department of Agriculture, School Lunch Pro¬ gram Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Rhode Island Community Food Bank, plus many individual volunteer gifts of food and equipment.

The backbone of the COA continues to be its volunteers, staff, instructors and Board of Directors who give strong support to the part-time staff and two full time administrative staff.

The COA also acknowledges with appreciation, the gracious continued support from the townspeople, Town Finance Committee and Town Officials.

Middleboro is indeed fortunate in having the administration of St. Luke Hospital aggressively pursue new approaches toward developing comprehensive health education pro- grms, which can help older people to recognize the importance of good health maintenance practices through utilization of available health maintenance resources which are provided for little or no cost. The hospital is to be complimented in having picked up the cost for developing an Electronic Emergency Response System which will provide another altema-

tive to institutionalization for frail elders who live alone and have multiple illnesses. Four years age, the COA Director had initiated and developed this proposal in hope of having it become a reality. Unfortunately, because of the lack of funds, the project was tabled! The COA is truly delighted to be able to have another service tool to use and deploy as an additional dimension for service by having been invited to participate as an active partner with St. Lukes Hospital in this project.

I am grateful and appreciative of the support and confidence which has been given to me by the Board of Directors, staff, volunteers, clients and the many town department heads and personnel without whose assistance this report would not have been possible.

Respectfully,

Leonard E. Simmons, A.C.S.W. Executive Director, M.C.O.A.

REPORT OF THE VETERANS’ SERVICES DEPARTMENT

Honorable Board of Selectmen Middleborough, Massachusetts

Honorable Board Members:

In submitting the annual report for the Department of Veterans’ Services, I must reflect back on twenty years that I have devoted to the department and the Town, and some of the various changes that have developed throughout the years.

Before Supplemental Security Income benefits were established through Social Security, the Departmnt of Veterans’ Services received numerous cases, many of which can now be serviced by Social Security and S.S.I. It was the responsibility of the Director and Agent at that time, to service an area that included not only Middleboro, but Carver, Marion, Lakeville and Rochester as well. Much time and effort was spent in filing applications for benefits for recipients from these neighboring towns as well as personal investigation. When S.S.I. was established, many of our recipients were able to receive assistance through this agency. Currently, a qualified veteran has the option also, of either applying for assistance through the Department of Public Welfare or through the Department of Veterans’ Services, something that was not previously encouraged. However, a person cannot receive aid from both agencies at the same time. With the increasing number of veterans, it became necessary to separate the area towns and allow representation by individual agents to handle the influx of veterans and dependents. For awhile this lessened the case load. However, Middleboro became more involved in service work from the Veterans’ Administration. The VA was being bombarded with claim forms for pension, compensation, etc. on the federal level. As a result, distribution of claim forms along with pamphlets and other pertinent material began filtering into the office with instructions that the Veterans’ Services Office would assist applicants in the preparation of these pensions, compensation, etc. Consequently, our work load escalated once again. We still continue to act as liaison for the veteran and have been instrumental in the procurement of benefits for many people.

201 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

Because of the many cut backs in federal spending, it has become an ever constant task to keep up with federal guidelines relevant to monetary changes in budgets to pass along to a potential applicant as well as the general public. Further, while new legislation is passed every day, it becomes necessary for us to be in direct contact with representatives from the VA in order to be informed of these changes as they occur and to make the public aware of this infor¬ mation. To this effort, the news media in the surrounding area plays an important role in the publishing of news releases that are supplied to them through our office and the VA.

The controversy regarding Agent Orange and its effects prompted delivery to our office last Fall, a supply of packets containing detailed literature, related questions and medical questionnaires. The increase in number of Viet Nam veterans and families suffering the effects of the dioxin from Agent Orange necessitated action in filing these claims. The deadline for filing was extended from January 2, 1985 to January 15th in order to give ample time to every person who may have fallen victim to Agent Orange.

In December, the Veterans’ Administration announced another 3.5 percent cost of living increase under the “improved” pension plan effective December 1, 1984. Veterans and sur¬ vivors who are receiving benefits under the “improved” plan of 1979 will receive the increase. Pensions for veterans and their survivors under the “old” plan remain fixed and payable at the rates in effect in 1979. But those rates are protected against termination that would other¬ wise result from cost of living increases in their income from Social Security. “Old” plan recipients may request transfer to the “improved” plan at any time and the VA will carefully review each application to advise applicants to choose the plan which works best to their per¬ sonal advantage. Rates and details regarding increases are available by calling the VA regional office at the toll-free number. (1-800-556-3893).

Relevant to the Veterans’ Services program was the reimbursement of $3,566.48 from liens and Workmens Compensation cases this past year, and reference must be made to a change in legislation that went into effect July 1, 1984 authorizing the State to reimburse cities and towns at the rate of seventy-five percent for aid given to veterans. This figure rep¬ resents a twenty-five percent increase.

During the past year, a revision was made in the recipient’s budget to reflect a five per¬ cent increase. This is the first budget increase that has been realized since 1980.

Through the efforts of John Gilfoy, Agent for Veterans’ Graves, we are in the process of replacing grave markers on veterans’ graves. These are the markers that hold the flags, and each year, many markers have disappeared from the graves. While the Veterans’ Services Office will pass along information to Mr. Gilfoy for replacement of a stolen marker or flag, it would be more advantageous to directly contact Mr. Gilfoy at 947-3277.

I wish to thank the Board of Selectmen, Town Manager, Anders Martenson and his staff, Town Clerk, Sandra Bernier and her aides and to the many others who have cooperated with our department throughout the year and to those who have personally supported me during my twenty years with the Town of Middleborough.

Respectfully submitted,

George J. Marra Veterans’ Director and Agent Middleborough, Massachusetts

REPORT OF THE PLANNING BOARD

The Middleborough Planning Board is responsible for administering provisions of State and Local Zoning Acts and for reviewing and enforcing subdivision regulations.

In 1984 Middleborough entered a new era of growth and development. People have been predicting this new growth for a number of years. This is evidenced by the fact the Planning Board received and processed applications for 114 Form A lots and 20 Form C lots. One hundred and four Form A’s and twenty Form C’s were approved.

The Planning Board received its first application for development in the D.O.D. (Development Opportunities District). This was submitted by Commerce Park Corporation for a development at the Middleboro Rotary.

A new Adult Mobile Home Park by-law was passed at the annual town meeting. The Board worked on this by-law for over a year. It is a Special Permit process similar to the D.O. District. We received an application for a Mobile Home Park under the by-law in December and will be working on it in 1985.

Funds were approved at town meeting for a full time Town Planner. The Board held a publicized meeting in July to discuss this position and to get imput from other Boards and town citizens on the Planners duties and responsibilities. We contacted other towns in Southeastern Mass, who had full time Planners and requested job descriptions. One Board member, Andy Anderson, reviewed this material and worked up a draft for the Board. The Board finalized the job description and advertised the position in November. We expect to have a full time Planner by March of 1985.

Additional business handled by the Planning Board this year included: action to re¬ activate a subdivision off Wall Street; discontinuance of a portion of Rocky Meadow Street; onsite road inspections; approval of a 12 lot office subdivision off Route 28 in South Middle¬ boro; and public meetings and review of a study on the General Use Area by SRPEDD. Per¬ sonnel changes this year included the expiration of John Moore’s term and the election of John Santin, Jr., to this position.

The Planning Board holds regularly scheduled open meetings on the second and fourth Tuesday’s of each month. In 1984 due to the rapid increase in development in Middleboro, we started meeting every Tuesday night. Our meetings are open to the public and we encourage citizens to attend. We advertise meetings in the Gazette that we feel are of particular interest to the citizens of Middleboro as well as hearing, which we are required to advertise by State Law. In 1985, the Planning Board will continue its review of the General Use District and hopefully have some recommendations for changes in this district. We also hope to work on an “estate lot” or “pork chop lot” by-law. We encourage citizens to attend our meetings and give us imput on these and other issues of importance to the Town of Middleboro.

REPORT OF THE CIVIL DEFENSE DIRECTOR

This is my second annual town report as the Director of Civil Defense for the Town of Middleborough. I began this year by disposing of the survival kits, which the Fire Department and Police Department still had. These kits contained crackers and chocolates which were no longer fit for human consumption. When March went out as a lion, the disaster committee I initiated really went to work. On March 29 Middleborough received eight inches of snow. During this time the town lost power for two to up to six hours. People displaced by loss of power and heat were able to go to the Middleborough armory. This was because Governor Dukakis opened all armories in the state. The armories were manned by the Red Cross. A few requests were made for generators by businessmen. We helped as many as best we could. Four wheel drive trucks were also available for transporting people from their homes to the armory.

I continued to work with the Auxiliary Police Department which began it’s first year as an association. The Auxiliary Police donated over 2,956 hours to the Town of Middleborough during the year of 1984. I feel that this unit has just begun to show us its importance and a back-up to the Police Department. Captain Henry Bump, who is in charge of the Auxiliary Police Department, report may be found after the Police Department’s annual report.

I attended the monthly meetings of the Civil Defense personnel which are sponsored by the State and Federal Civil Defense Units. I also continued working with the American Red Cross in the area of emergency housing in case of natural disasters, participated in the monthly short wave two meter F.M. Amateur radio drill as well as the bi-monthly CHECKERBOARD test. I also checked into the availability of surplus equipment and parts for the different departments in town.

I’ve done several C.P.R. classes and First Aid classes for the residents in Middleborough with the help of fellow instructors including; Patti Mason, William Burke, and Joel Pickering. We will continue to offer classes in the up-coming year.

In the year of 1985, I will work to keep myself informed of all new aspects of Civil Defense, both State and Federal.

Thank you for your cooperation in the past and I look forward to having your support in the up-coming year. It has been a pleasure working for you in 1984.

Respectfully submitted,

Robert W. Silva Director of Civil Defense For the Town of Middleborough

204 SERVICES AND UTILITIES REPORT OF THE PARK DEPARTMENT

An eleven week summer program of supervised activities was offered during the months of June, July, and August. Our basic program of activities consisted of swimming lessons, rec¬ reational and competitive swimming, tennis lessons, softball and baseball leagues, kiddie komer, special events, Olympics, and informal play.

The swimming pool is our most popular activity. Attendance was 25,462, and included 587 youngsters registered for swimming lessons. Swimming lessons attendance was 5,334. Other attendance figures were 1,806 for tennis lessons and 1,692 for field activities. Forty eight youngsters were members of our competitive swim team and they competed in eight meets with out of town teams. Our last week of the supervised season was devoted to Olympics, the thirtieth consecutive Olympics have been held and was attended by 153 younsters. Receipts returned to the Town was $5,115.50.

Major grounds improvement was the erection of a fence on our newly developed play area near the river to make the two softball fields located there more playable. This area was used extensively by youth girls softball and business organizations.

We continued our Fourth of July activities celebration. An added feature this year was the one-week carnival and the three nights of fireworks.

As in the past several years we had problems in the starting and operation of the swim¬ ming pool. We were able to make emergency repairs to bring us through the summer. There are three areas of concern: the piping around the pool, the filtration system, and the condition of the existing pool surface. The piping around the pool and the filtration system are twenty years old and in need of replacement because of corrosion and other mechanical replacement parts. The existing pool surface has not had any major improvement work done on it in its over fifty years of existence. We engaged E. J. Flynn Engineers regarding cost estimates for a complete new filtration system, piping system around the pool, fiberglassing the pool surface, and replacement of the concrete apron around the pool. At a special town meeting $214,000 was appropriated to make all of these necessary repairs and improvements.

We continued our program of aiding youth groups in presenting their programs of activities for the youth of our town. Help in the form of field use, play equipment, and field lining was given to the softball, baseball, football, and soccer groups. One big area of concern here is the lack of field space for play for youth soccer.

The Park Board awarded Middleborough High School 1984 graduate Ellen McGlone the K. Bartlett Harrison scholarship, which amounts to $250.00.

Our staff numbered approximately forty two Middleboro people, the great majority of them college and high school youngsters. Several adults also worked part-time in key super¬ visory positions.

The Park Department extends its thanks to the people of Middleborough, its govern¬ ment officials, the Pierce Trustees, and the Park Baord for the continued recreational interest and support.

205 SERVICES AND UTILITIES REPORT OF THE PLYMOUTH COUNTY MOSQUITO CONTROL PROJECT

The Commissioners of the Plymouth County Mosquito Control Project are pleased to sub¬ mit the following report of our activities during 1984.

The Project is a special district created by the State Legislature in 1957, and is now com¬ posed of 21 Plymouth County towns, the City of Brockton, and the Town of Cohasset in Nor¬ folk County. The Project is a regional response to a regional problem and provides a way of organizing specialized equipment, specially trained employees, and mosquito control pro¬ fessionals into a single agency with a broad geographical area of responsibility. The Project continues to provide environmentally sound mosquito control at no increase in per capita cost.

1984 was a year of transition. Gary Benzon, Superintendent of the Project for nearly four years, left to pursue a PhD at North Carolina State University. He was replaced by Dr. Kenneth Ludlam, a native Bay Stater formerly associated with Maryland mosquito control programs; who is aided by Assistant Superintendent Michael King, a Delaware mosquito control veteran; and by an able, experienced, and knowledgeable staff of foremen, inspectors, and support personnel.

1984 was also a year of repeat challenges. The Project was again tested by an increased threat of the mosquito transmitted disease Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE). The Project responded by increasing the level of control and by targeting areas of highest risk. Additional costs for overtime and insecticide are to be funded by a special appropriation and not charged to member towns. The recurrent problem of EEE in southeastern Massachusetts has led to increased cooperation between the Project and the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.

1984’s new challenges included the addition of the Town of Marshfield, which became part of the Project in July. Control activities were targeted at the adult mosquitoes until late in the season when most of the larval development sites were finally catalogued. More emphasis on control of the mosquitoes in the larval stage can be expected in this town next year.

Again this year with the aid of a computer the figures specific to the Town of Middle- borough are given below. While mosquitoes do not respect town lines the information given below does provide a tally of the activities which have had the greatest impact on the health and comfort of Middleborough residents.

1. Insecticide Application. 23,212 acres were treated using truck mounted sprayers for control of adult mosquitoes. More than one application was made to the same site if mos¬ quitoes reinvaded the area. The first treatments were made in May and the last in September. The use of quiet electric sprayers has completely ended complaints about noise.

Our greatest effort has been targeted at mosquitoes in the larval stage, which can be found in woodland pools, swamps, marshes, and other standing water areas. Inspectors con¬ tinually gather data on these sites and treat with highly specific larvicides when immature mosquitoes are present. Last year a total of 230 inspections were made to 136 catalogued breeding sites totalling 6,040 acres.

206 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

1A. Aerial Application. Larviciding woodland swamps by airplane before the leaves come out on the trees can be very effective. In Middleborough this year we aerially larvicided 700 acres.

Finally, a total of 810 treatments were made to storm sewer catch basins to prevent mos¬ quito production in this man made habitat.

2. Water Management. During 1984, crews removed blockages, brush and other obstructions from 2,000 linear feet of ditches and streams to prevent overflows or stagnation that can result in mosquito breeding. This work together with machine reclamation is most often carried out in the fall and winter.

We encourage citizens or municipal officials to call our office for infomation about mos¬ quitoes, mosquito-borne diseases, control practices, or any other matters of concern.

REPORT OF THE WIRE INSPECTOR

To the Board of Selectmen:

1984 has been a busy one for this Department.

There were 108 new meters installed; 64 temporary meters for new construction; 128 rough wiring inspections; 52 increases in size of service equipment; 12 re-connects after fires or repairs to service; 97 final; 5 trailers; 16 temporary to permanent; 22 checking jobs with electricians; 17 re-inspections and 38 small jobs of oil burners, water heaters, etc.

Five hundred fifty-nine (559) inspections were made for 1984.

Respectfully yours,

Emilo Niro Wire Inspector SOUTHEASTERN REGIONAL PLANNING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT

During 1984 the Town of Middleborough continued its membership for the fifteenth year in the Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic Development District. SRPEDD is a planning and economic development agency formed under state law to serve twenty-eight communities in southeastern Massachusetts by providing a cooperative approach to regional issues.

The District is governed by a Commission consisting of a chief elected official or designee and a planning board representative from each participating municipality and six low-income and minority representatives. Middleborough’s representatives for the Board of Selectmen and Planning Board respectively, are Lawrence E. Carver, who serves on SEED Corporation, and John Santin, Jr.

207 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

In addition to regional planning and economic development, SRPEDD assists member cities and towns. Through the free municipal assistance program, each community receives time for local projects and assistance in preparing applications for federal and state funds.

The agency’s purpose is to plan for regional land use, economic development, housing, tran¬ sit, transportation, solid waste, energy resources and conservation, and air and water quality. Local participation in these regional plans enables communities to be eligible for federal and state dollars.

Services to Middleborough this past year included: • CDBG Administration Assistance

• Analysis of General Use District

• Growth Study Committee/Town Master Plan Review

• Analysis of Development Proposal

Regional Plans and other activities conducted this year benefiting all communities included: • Approval of over $60 million in regional grant applications to federal and state agencies and of over $196 million in Industrial Revenue Bonds which will create approximately 1,700 new jobs in the region.

• Environmental assessment reviews of state and federally funded projects, and reviews of all local zoning amendments. The reviews are advisory and are orien¬ ted toward making proposals more cost-effective and feasible.

• The annual update of the Overall Economic Development Program (OEDP) which makes member communities eligible for U.S. Economic Development Administration funding and a 10 percent bonus for public facility projects.

• The annual update of the Transportation Improvements Program (TIP) which lists major projects in each community for federal and state funding. A project must be included on the TIP in order to be eligible for these funds.

• Conducting a community education effort on the safe handling of industrial hazardous wastes under a contract with Southeastern Massachusetts University.

• SEED, South Eastern Economic Development Corporation, established and staffed by SRPEDD, provides low-interest, long-term financing to small businesses in southeastern Massachusetts through the U.S. Small Business Administration’s “503” Program and a newly established $1 million revolving loan fund. In 1984 SEED assisted three businesses which resulted in total investments of over $1.7 million and created 96 jobs.

SRPEDD represents the collective will of its member communities. As the responsibilities and problems of municipalities become increasingly complex, the District can provide techni¬ cal assistance to local boards, encourage cooperation among communities, and provide a com¬ prehensive approach to issues that cross local boundaries.

REPORT OF THE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS

The Zoning Board of Appeals received 41 applications during the year of 1984 requesting various types of hearings. Of these, 30 were approved, 10 were denied, and 1 was withdrawn. The most common request to the board is still to alter or change an existing valid non- conforming use.

There were 6 requests for the temporary use or extension of a permit for use of a mobile home while the owner is constructing his permanent dwelling. These were all granted. There were 3 requests to grant additional living space for in-laws and these were granted, also.

The price for filing for a hearing increased from $25.00 to $50.00 this year.

Two members resigned from the board this yean Jonathan A. Bradley and Robert Jeffreys. They were replaced by Ms. Charlene Saufler and Mr. Gustaf Olson.

The Zoning Board of Appeals has strived to properly interpret the zoning by-laws and to allow the best use of property within the guidelines provided by the town.

211 REPORT OF THE PLUMBING & GAS INSPECTOR

The year 1984 has been an excellent year for construction of new homes and renovations of existing buildings.

The State of Massachusetts has adopted the National Fuel Gas Code which will be enforced in the Town of Middleborough. The National Code contains input from the National Fire Pre¬ vention Agency and assures the consumer greater protection from accident.

It has been a satisfying privilege to serve the Town of Middleborough during this past year.

The following is a breakdown of permits and fees collected:

Plumbing 424 Permits.Fees:. $9,255.00 Gas 279 Permits.Fees:. 2,790.00 Sewer Entrances 6 Permits.Fees:. 150.00

Respectfully yours,

REPORT OF THE BUILDING INSPECTOR

The Honorable Board of Selectmen Town of Middleborough Town Hall, Nickerson Avenue Middleborough, Ma 02346

This has been another active year - this Department issued a total of 717 Permits and Certificates this year, of which 454 represent Building Permits and the remainder of 263 were for Demolition, Signs, Occupancy Certificates and Certificates of Inspections.

The total fees collected were $28,327.00. This is 36% increase over last year’s fees.

These Building Permits represent a total value of approximately $9,000,000. Housing continues to increase. Ninety (90) Building Permits were issued for new dwellings as com¬ pared to 64 in 1983.

Business related construction activity continues to develop. The Toy Train Museum, for¬ merly Caswell’s Market, on Plymouth Street was completed and opened for business this past Spring.

The Ocean Spray Cranberry Company on Bridge Street completed their 24.000 S.F. addition of office space and warehouse, and the 1,500 S.F. addition to boiler house was com¬ pleted. Also, the addition/renovations of the processing plant were finished this year. This included an 85’ cooling tower.

The Gerson Company completed the 26,000 S.F. storage/production building addition on Sumner Avenue.

Construction on the Northeast Refrigerated Terminals Freezer Building of 150,000 S.F. which is located across from Ocean Spray on Wood Street continues. One third of this building was completed by December and is in operation.

Building Permits have been applied for, for two buildings in the Commerce Park Development off the Middleborough Rotary. These are only two of the proposed 19 buildings in this project.

Construction of one office building was started as part of a new eleven-lot Commercial sub-division off 364 Wareham Street.

Preliminary design has been done for a proposed supermarket complex off West Grove Street near Barnicoat Monument Company.

Once again it has been a privilege and an honor to serve the Town of Middleborough.

Respectfully yours,

William J. Gedraitis Inspector of Buildings

Services to the Town Other than Firefighting

Fire safety classes were given, upon request, to St. Luke’s Hospital and to nursing and rest homes. Demonstrations were given on proper use and handling of Class A, B, C. and D fire extinguishers. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation courses were given to various organizations by Permanent Fire Fighters Robert Silva and William Burke. These men are certified C. P. R. instructors. In-service inspections of business and town-owned property were conducted by permanent fire fighters.

OTHER COMMENTS

I wish to thank the many organizations and citizens of Middelborough, who contributed to the Middleborough Fire Prevention Program.

I wish to thank the Police, Water and Highway Departments, and the Gas and Electric Department for their efficiency in responding to aid our Department during fires and other emergencies throughout the year.

Also. I wish to thank the Peirce Trustees for their donation of a new air compressor to fill Scott breatiiing apparatus.

On December 27, 1984, the new brush breaker arrived, and is now in service. The old brush breaker was put into service at the South Middleborough Fire Station.

218 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

Updating Equipmen

The following are my personal recommendations for updating Middleborough Fire Department apparatus:

1. Enging #2, a 1961 Maxim one-thousand-gallon-per-minute (1,000 G.P.M.) pumper, is now over twenty (20) years old, and should be given serious con¬ sideration for replacement. I will ask that it go on the warrant to be voted on at an upcoming Town Meeting.

2. Engine #1, - 1975 Maxim, 1,250 G.P.M. Pumper is in good condition.

3. Engine #3, - 1973 Maxim, 1,000 G.P.M. pumper is in good condition.

4. Aerial #1, 1955 Maxim Jr., 75 ft. aerial. I had this piece of apparatus repowered in 1977 with a new diesel engine, air brakes, hydraulic system, and aerial ladders tested. This piece of apparatus should be good for five (5) or more years and is in good condition.

Recommendations

I recommend, as I have in the past, that serious consideration be given to the North Middleborough area, in constructing a fire station, to meet the potential growing needs for fire suppression in this area. Now that Rte. 495 is a reality, it appears that this area will grow rapidly, as an industrial park, and will need adequate protection.

I recommend that serious consideration be given to the North Middleborough area, in increasing the water supply and mains, to be adequate to handle the water supply that will be needed, should an industrial park become a reality in the very near future. I have reason to belive that the water supply is in the process of being updated to meet future demands.

I recommend that a Fire Needs Study Committee be formed -- consisting of one (1) mem¬ ber from the Board of Selectmen, one (1) member from the Finance Committee, the Fire Chief, and two (2) other members designated by the Board of Selectmen -- to ascertain the fire safety needs of the Town of Middleborough.

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph F. Oliver Fire Chief

REPORT OF THE FIRE ALARM SUPERINTENDENT

Maintenance of the Fire Alarm System

Repairs were made as necessary to keep the Fire Alarm System operating. There were numerous times when lies had to be repaired or replaced due to storms, and, also, from automobile accidents knocking down poles, making it necessary to repair or replace wiring.

219 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

So far, as of this writing, the Fire Alarm Budget is holding up very well and work on the Fire Alarm lines and necessary repairs should be able to be accomplished to bring the Alarm System back into very good condition.

One new Fire Alarm Box was added this year, being the Chamberlain School on Prospect Street, this being Box Number 454.

The Fire Alarm Truck is working out very well and should save the Town money in labor, as well as being much more convenient to use.

It is planned to extend the fire alarm line along Route 28 to the Rotary Circle area to allow the proposed buildings to be connected directly to the Fire Dept. This will also allow any existing businesses to connect to the system if they wish.

Recommendations

I recommend that the Fire Chief, Selectmen and Finance Committee members allot at least the same amount of money in the Fire Alarm Budget for next year, if not more, to further update the Fire Alarm system to keep it working at full efficiency.

Respectfully submitted,

Thomas E. Rogers Fire Alarm Superintendent

REPORT OF THE TRAINING OFFICER

I hereby submit the report of training for the call members of the Middleborough Fire Department for 1984.

January - Radiological monitoring and the use of related equipment. Instructed by Firefighter Burke.

February - C. P. R. recertification for call and permanent firefighters. Instructed by Firefighter Silva.

March - First Responder Advanced First Aid and Emergency Care Course. Instructed by Firefighter Burke. This was for call and permanent firefighters.

April - Hurst Hydraulic Rescue Tool and new cutters and ram-bars. Drill conducted at Pittsley’s Auto Salvage Co. Instructed by Lt. Guilford.

May - Pumping from draft at a dry hydrant at Camp Avoda. Instructed by Lt. Guilford.

June - Self-contained breathing apparatus and search and rescue procedures under simulated conditions. Lt. Guilford instructed.

220 SERVICES AND UTILITIES

July - Advancing hose lines and use of four-inch hose and appliances. Lt. Guilford instructed.

August - Cooperative drill with Lakeville Fire Department at Lakeville Hospital with emphasis on water supply. Deputy Plaskawiski coordinated the program.

September - Hazardous Waste and the Firefighter, Part #1. This consisted of films, chalk talks, data-gathering and complication of resource lists. Lt. Guilford instructed.

October - Hazardous Waste and the Firefighter, Part #2, More in depth then previous month. Data collected for use in handbook/worksheet type of procedure for emergency use. Lt. Guilford instructed.

November - Instructed in hazards of B. L. E. V. E.

December - Skull sessions on the year’s successes and failure. Input into the training program by the firefighters.

On March 31, 1984, Deputy Fire Chief David Smarsh, veteran of thirty-three years and nine months of service to the Town of Middleborough, retired. I worked for many years as Dave’s assistant, and I know I speak for all when I wish him a happy and long retirement. He certainly paid his dues!

I want to thank Jim Bradford and the personnel at Camp Avoda for the use of the area for training purposes. I also thank all of the people at Pittsley’s Auto Salvage for the time and effort they put forth that we might do our job better.

Due to the increase in the knowledge and skills required by the expanding technologies, and the fact that Middleborough is a “town on the move”, I strongly recommend that action be taken as soon as possible to insure that more drill time and better wages and training be provided to ALL the firefighters in our town. Twenty-four hours a year are too few in which to become adept at the many skills required by the job. When you subtract the time spent on non-fire related training, and more time for vacations, sickness, etc., the true time spent on actual drill is around twelve to sixteen hours per year. It is the responsibility of the local authority to develop training programs with the attainment of proficiency being the terminal point, this goal and this responsibility cannot be obtained at the present level of funding for training and wages. It is not at all impossible that this lack of training will someday prove to be costly in terms of loss of life, property and damage to the environment.

Respectfully submitted,

Lt. Byron F. Guilford Training Officer

221 REPORT OF THE FIRE PREVENTION OFFICER

Because of lack of funds, we were, again, unable to have Open House at the Central Fire Station during Fire Prevention Week in October.

However, we are very grateful to the President of the Middleborough Savings Bank for making the bank lobby available to us during Fire Prevention Week. Home fire safety pamphlets were free to the public, and by week’s end, we had sold 375 smoke detectors and 125 fire extinguishers. We feel that this program was a great success.

Fire safety demonstrations were given to the Middleborough schools. Fire safety training and evacuation procedures were given to the employees of St. Luke’s Hospital, and to the staffs of nursing homes and rest homes, as well as to many organizations and industries requesting these programs.

Townspeople are urged to make use of the fire safety programs available to them. These include working with families whose children were involved in playing with and setting fire. Also, we offer Middleborough residents, at their request, assistance in organizing a home fire safety program. A good fire prevention program can reduce fire losses up to 50% in the com¬ munity, and can save many lives.

In Middleborough, we intend to continue our fire safety programs, as we have done in the past. Fire prevention is everyone’s job. Let’s fight fire with fire prevention, and make the Town of Middleborough a safer place in which to live.

Respectfully submitted,

Captain Ronald 0. Poulin Fire Prevention Officer

228 CONCLUSION

This 315th year of the Incorporation of the Town of Middleborough has passed this being the 25th year of the annual Christmas Parade.

On January 16th & 17th with the Board of Selectmen’s authorization Police Officer Charles Armanetti and I traveled to Rochester, New York to evaluate one of the Infra-red Breathalyzer Instruments. As reported, last year we received a $3,000.00 grant from the Governor’s Highway Safety Bureau toward the purchase price of the State of the Art Infra- Red Breathe Testing Equipment. Police Officer Armanetti did an excellent job evaluating the three available instruments. I thank him for the hours of his time and the professional manner he handled the process. State Law requires whenever a Police Officer is elevated in rank he/she must receive supervisory training. Based on this fact, Sergeant Judith R. Anmahian attended the command training program at the New England Institute of Law Enforcement Management located on the campus of Babson College, Wellesley from Janaury 23 to February 10. This 3 week management program is well worth the time involved and each officer who has attended the program attest to that fact.

We continue to experience some difficulty attracting and keeping part time dog officers for the Dog Division. In January the Board appointed 3 part-timers after we had received applications from them. After appointment only 1 of the 3 ever worked the job. We continue to need part time people to work. Obviously they need to have a like for and be able to handle dogs.

On January 30, Police Officer George P. Murphy requested and the Board approved a lateral transfer from this department to the Falmouth Police Department. After a period of time George finally resigned on March 3rd since Civil Service would not approve the lateral transfer. George had just completed his probationary period and was on his way to become a fine Police Officer. I am happy to say after 3 months at Falmouth he decided to rejoin us.

During the year we had our share of disciplinary proceedings, which from my stand point is probably the most difficult part of my job. It seems to serve no purpose to go into any of the details but just to mention several incidents occurred and were handled.

In February Sergeant Jeffrey G. Cornell was granted a 90 day leave of absence so he could enter private industry. After a trial period Jeff returned to his permanent position as a Police Sergeant.

In March the Board awarded the bid for the new Infra-red Breathalyzer to Walsh Associated for a Verax BAC Verifier. After the evaluation process we found this instrument to be the best of the 3 instruments on the market. It’s worth noting at this point one of the other 2 instruments is no longer available.

Along with the new Breathalyzer instrument each officer of the department has been trained as an operator. To eliminate potential liability we instituted a policy which provides no individual is released from custody until he/she is no longer intoxicated. There are however, some statutory exceptions such as juveniles who must be released to a parent, etc. The procedure protects the Town and the public in general.

229 Over the past year, there has been considerable discussion relative to the parking regulations and the subsequent enforcement thereof. I point out many of the regulations are extremely old dating back to 1936. From time to time they are up-dated to conform with the current needs. Officers have been instructed to enforce the parking regulations fairly but firmly. Fair notice should be taken by the citizens; off street parking is provided for those individuals who need to park over an hour.

Our Dog Officer spent considerable time and effort dealing with a kennel problem on Pleasant Street. He advises currently the kennel has ceased to operate, in Middleborough at least. It has taken over a year to come to some sort of a conclusion in that case.

For the past several years we have appointed individuals to the position of seasonal employees to cover the vacation gap. One young man who was with us 2 years - Peter DiMatteo - subsequently was hired by the Dennis Police Dept. The seasonal officers do an excellent job with minimal training and experience.

In May we accepted the responsibility to physically examine Police Officer applicants. Previously a list had been held up until Civil Service conducted physicals. We have traditionally conducted our own physicals which are required by the training council 90 days prior to their acceptance at a training facility. The short of it, we eliminated one of the steps.

During the week of May 17th Chief Donald L. Bowles of Lakeville conducted the semi¬ annual fire requalification. Donald is a certified NRA Firearms Instructor. The second qualification was held during the month of October. Prior to this year we only conducted once a year requalification, however, the currently accepted procedure is twice annually.

In June the Board approved my proposal to adopt a relatively new concept in fleet management - the shared cruiser program. The gist of the program involves assigning one cruiser to the same officers. This cuts down the number of drivers using each vehicle; should extend the life of a cruiser.

Based on them accepting the plan we retained two of the old cruisers adding two to the fleet. It is our hope to purchase sufficient vehicles so no more than 3 officers are assigned to one vehicle. This should extend the life of a cruiser to 3 years and 100,000 miles. It also will provide more vehicles to cover special events such as Halloween, etc.

Again this year, at my own expense, I attended the New England Chiefs of Police Association Conference held at Britton Woods, New Hampshire from 9-9 to 9-12 and the Inter¬ national Chiefs of Police Association Conference 10-20 to 10-25 in Salt Lake City, Utah. I feel the conferences are well worth the money expended.

In August, Louis J. Mattie, our congenial custodian of many years notified me he would have to retire. I sure hate to see him go. I certainly wish Louie and his wife a long and healthy retirement.

As a result, I hired Raymond A. Dutra, 130 Wareham Street, Middleboro to replace Louie. There is really no one who can replace Louie, in that sense, but Ray has taken hold and is doing an excellent job.

230 Those of you who drive along Route 44 or the interconnecting streets of Center, Everett, Plymouth or Route 105 know the problems of the traffic signals and more specifically the vehicles whose operators fail to stop for red signals. With that in mind, at the Boards instructions, a communication was sent to the State DPW requesting they up-date the roadway. Only time will tell what they will do, but something must - before someone gets killed.

August 25 we conducted the annual auction to dispose of “confiscated or lost and found property” in our possession for over a year. Better than $600.00 was turned into the Treasury after expenses were paid. Each year the items vary but the auction attracts a great deal of interest.

Again this year the Town and several of its officers have been sued for alleged Civil Rights violations. Though examination of the facts would indicate no violations on the part of the officers involved, these matters are expensive to defend. It seems even when you do the job in good conscience you still get sued.

State Law requires whenever a female is taken into custody for any reason she must be placed in the custody of a Police Matron and said matron shall have full responsibility for the incarcerated female. Though we currently have 8 appointed matrons we at times have dif¬ ficulty finding matrons to work. If any female is interested contact my office at the Police Department for further information.

At the October 22nd Special Town meeting the citizens accepted the provisions of Chapter 644 of the acts of 1981 allowing for the adoption of a by-law to regulate handicapped parking on or in private off street parking lots. At the same time the voters accepted a by-law setting out the requirements and allows the Police Department to enforce these regulations even though it is private property. Once the law is approved and appropriate signs are errected we WILL enforce the regulations.

In October the Board adopted new rules for the selection of police officers. We have for several years conducted oral interviews with a panel of supervisory personnel from the Department. The new proceedure provides the panel will consist of a psychologist, super¬ visory personnel from this department and from outside the department. This is designed to eliminate personality and to provide wider scope of experience in making a selection, only time will tell.

In September with the full cooperation of school officials, the financial assistance of various businesses. Officer Clifford E. Hall presented the “Officer Phil” program to all students K-3. The program was extremely well accepted by the students and all comments from the faculty, was in the positive sense. My personal thanks to the participating merchants. We will be renewing the program again this year.

Officer Hall is the Crime Prevention officer for the Department. As such he is available to address organizations, churches or a group of neighbors interested in preventing crime. The old cliche, “your best ally is a good nosey neighbor,” is the back bone of crime prevention. Over the years we in the Police Department have been geared fully to investigate a crime after its’ occurrance. We should and are now addressing preventing the crime before it happens, but we need and encourage your assistance.

In closing my 18th annual report, I must state it has been a pleasure for me to hold the Office of Chief of Police for the past 17 years. To all those who have been supportive over the past years; I thank you.

231 Finally, I wish to thank all the employees of the Department for a job well done. Though it’s true we don’t always agree, when it comes down to performing in an emergency every employee would turn out. The Town has a Department I believe, they can be proud of. Further, to all the other Departments, thank you for your assistance and cooperation over the year. We all like the Town we live in.

Respectfully submitted,

William E. Warner, Chief of Police

REPORT OF THE PERMANENT GROWTH STUDY COMMITTEE

The Honorable Board of Selectmen Town of Middleborough Town Hall, Nickerson Avenue Middleborough, Ma 02346

Honorable Board:

I regret to inform the Board and citizens of Middleborough that the Permanent Growth Study Committee has held only one official meeting during 1984. This despite the need for an active Permanent Growth Study Committee, particularly during a period of rapid expansion and change in Middleborough. The one meeting was well attended and useful due in large part to the attendance of members of the newly formed “We Care” group from North Middleborough.

Since our designated purpose is to assist the Planning Board, and insofar as this failure to meet can be attributed to my failure as chairperson, I apologize to the Board and citizens.

The Permanent Growth Study Committee takes some credit for urging the Town to employ a Town Planner. This necessary step, which will eventually take much of the routine workload off the shoulders of a hard-working volunteer Planning Board, has been done. We welcome the chance to assist the new Town Planner and the Planning Board in any way appropriate to our mandate during 1985.

A continuing need is the recruitment of active citizen volunteers and participation in 1985 and new appointees and officers for our Committee.

Respectfully submitted,

Joyce A. Farwell Chairwoman

232 ANNUAL REPORT

of the

SCHOOL COMMITTEE

of

MIDDLEBOROUGH, MASSACHUSETTS

For the Year Ending December 31,

1984

233 SCHOOL COMMITTEE At the meeting of the School Committee held on January 17, 1985 it was voted: “To accept the Annual Report of the Superintendent of Schools for 1984 and so adopt it as the Report of the School Committee to be incorporated in the Annual Town Report.”

James C. Hilton Secretary for the Committee

ANNUAL REPORT - SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS

In accordance with Sections 3 and 4 of Chapter 72 of the General Laws and the adopted policy of the Middleborough School Committee, I herewith submit my seventeenth Annual Report as Superintendent of the Middleborough Public Schools.

This year has been a year of healing, progress, and accomplishment. The teaching profes¬ sion has taken all the buffeting and brickbats society and its media have been able to muster and have emerged from the melee with their heads high and a renewed conviction that their profession is vital to the future prosperity of the Republic and our youth. We continue in the pursuit of excellence.

Another happy occurrence was the acquisition of a quarter of a million dollars in emergency state school aid. This money, at School Committee direction, was allocated to unbudgeted educational improvement and has done much to replace equipment, textbooks and teaching materials badly depleted by several years of inadequate funding. With the help of the Middleborough Education Association and our teachers, students, parents, townspeople, businesses and the Peirce Trustees, many additional thousands were raised and donated for projects upgrading the quality of educational equipment and experience available to our students.

Thanks to approval of a bond issue and the hard work of the School Roof Building Com¬ mittee and James C. Hilton, our Henry B. Burkland and Middleborough High School roofs will be replaced by spring. We expect 65-90% state reimbursement and thank the Town and all involved for the swift, efficient handling of this problem.

The Town Revenue Resources Committee, authorized by the Selectmen last April, co¬ ordinated our town boards and officials in an all out effort to locate and properly utilize every cent of available revenue. Their success has assured at least two yeas of planned financial stability with some growth. We gratefully acknowledge these efforts and thank all those involved.

In the elementary schools, our students in Grades 2 - 6 are in the third year of the Rinehart Penmanship program, and have achieved a number one statewide ranking for pen¬ manship proficiency. Mayflower School is piloting an expansion of this program down to Kin¬ dergarten and 1st grade.

The Science Curriculum Study Committee’s recommended, School Committee approved Silver Burdett Science Curriculum was instituted in Grades K - 6 providing new textbooks and materials, which emphasize the organization and application of information and concepts in developing problem solving capability.

The Junior High School has established their own Computer Laboratory on the Library stage, with the help of staff, parents and students. Ten TRS-80 computers, purchased with profits from the annual magazine drive, and several Apple lies’ purchased with state school emergency funds and Chapter I funds, are being used by students and staff on a daily basis. TV monitors donated by parents have been most helpful and are appreciated.

234 SCHOOL COMMITTEE

Our grade 8 overcrowding has been relieved by providing an extra section of the Blue Team. French and Russian are being offered to our students at that grade level as well as Algebra.

The involvement of parents has continued to be a priority at Memorial Junior High Schoc^ Volunteers have donated hundreds of greatly appreciated hours in the cafeteria, health room, shop and office areas, and the Parent Advisory Group has been active.

Career Day, sponsored by M.J.H.S. and the Chamber of Commerce, under the direction of Counsellor Maureen Higgins, provided students with an all day opportunity to learn directly about the working world from adults and to gather information useful in later career decisions. We have commended the Junior High School staff, Maureen Higgins, Assistant Principal, Robert H. White and Principal, Alan R. Lindsay for an excellent year.

At Middleborough High School, the Social Studies Course in Area Studies is being taught again after a one year hiatus. Mr. George Simmons is teaching an evening senior litera¬ ture seminar, and the Speech and Theatre Workshop and computer courses continue to thrive as parts of our excellent academic program. We were saddened by the December retirement of Mrs. Marion Whipple, Teacher and Department Head at Middleborough High School for 27 years, and the resignation of Mr. Robert Ryan, 14 year Business Education Teacher. They will be deeply missed and their contributions are acknowledged.

Last June, 228 members of the Class of 1984 graduated. Over 90 of them were awarded $73,000 in local scholarships while, as a group, their educational support awards totalled over $250,000. This is a tribute to the scholarship of the class and to the generosity and foresight of the people of Middleborough who have always supported better educational opportunity for our youth.

The Media Services Department, under the direction of Joseph McDonald, has, with the help of a staff Computer Advisory Committee, made up of Irene Florentino, Mary Day, Marie O’Brien, Dennis Smith and Mr. McDonald, overseen the implementation of computer education throughout our schools. We now have 69 computers including computer laboratories at the junior and senior high schools and another in the final planning stages at the Burkland School. (Mr. McDonald, his media specialists, and the Computer Advisory Committee are to be com¬ mended for their efforts, not only in the upgrading of computer equipment and the integration of the use of computers into the curriculum, but for providing library and in-service training to 120 of our teachers in six in-service courses.)

The Music Department, under the direction of Richard E. Nelson and Richard G. Brooks, has had an active year. A fifth and sixth grade choir has been organized by Mr. Brooks at the Henry B. Burkland School. Music for our Kindergarteners and more instrumental instruction have been provided by Mrs. Patricia Lacerda, who was hired to fill that need with emergency state school aid. Annual Christmas concerts and shows were held in the elementary, Junior and Senior high schools. Our Junior and Senior High Bands participated in three parades each, as well as Christmas assemblies and spring concerts. The Peirce Trustees bought new twirler and color guard uniforms for which we are grateful. Our students, the entire music staff, Mr. Brooks and Mr. Nelson are hereby commended for the outstanding year they have had.

235 SCHOOL COMMITTEE

Our Physical Education and Athletics Department, under the capable leadership of Joseph A. Masi, continues to do more and more with little additional budget. Our thanks to the Peirce Trustees who financed the operation of the Burkland Pool and other needs. A special thank you to Mr. Masi and to the Sea Devils Parents Group, the M.H.S. Football Boosters and the other civic organizations, boosters clubs and parent organizations, who, through their fundraising and other efforts, have made better opportunity for our youth a reality. Con¬ gratulations to our sports teams who won first place South Shore League trophies in softball, baseball and football.

Pupil Personnel Services, under the direction of Martin T. Hanley, continues to grow. This past year has seen an increase in staff of one junior high teacher and two new elementary aides; all necessary because of increased numbers and paid for by emergency state school aid. Costs continue to rise due to state regulations and rate increases. We are working toward state assumption of these extraordinary financial burdens. School adjustment counsellors, speech therapists, the nurses and secondary guidance as well as Chapter I, Reading and Occupational Education are also included under the Pupil Personnel administrative umbrella. We are grateful to Mr. Hanley, Mrs. Tharion, Mrs. Card, Mrs. Neville and their staffs for a job well done. We acknowledge the contribution of Miss Ruth Pfister, 20 year Special Needs Teacher and wish her many happy years of retirement.

Harvey F. Brooks, Director and Charles Connell, Counsellor, continue to run, most efficiently and effectively, our Community Evening School. Eighteen of their Diploma Pro¬ gram students received high school diplomas at graduation last June. Their General Equivalency Diplomas Program trained 49 this year. A new Computer Literacy Course involved 43 others, while 54 were enrolled in the Business, Accounting and Typing classes. Massasoit Community College offerings were accessed by over 100 of the total of over 300 enrolled during the year.

We are entering an exciting new period of rapid growth for Middleborough. Proper planning and adequate support for our schools and our youth must be provided if we are to attract industry and people here and provide for orderly growth. We have high hopes that this will be cooperatively accomplished.

I wish to acknowledge the receipt of the gift of an NCR 499 computer from Mr. George Marcy; this Middleborough Savings Bank donation will make our lives much less hectic.

It has been my privilege to work with outstanding School Committees, Administration and Staff over these years. The hundreds of hours they have donated and their genuine com¬ mitment to our youth and to the continual improvement of our schools is gratefully ack¬ nowledged and appreciated.

< I wish especially to thank Mr. John T. Nichols, School Committee Chairman, the administrators, the teachers and other professional staff, the clerks, the custodians, cafeteria workers, bus drivers and bus contractor for their cooperation and hard work. I am also grate¬ ful to Mr. Martenson, the Selectmen, the Finance Committee and other town officers, depart¬ ment heads and their staffs without whose help our job would be much more difficult.

A special note of thanks to our retired Town Clerk, Mrs. Ruth Caswell and to Weldon Thomas, retired Head of Highways; both jewels in the crown of Middleborough’s Town Government.

236 SCHOOL COMMITTEE

Finally, special thanks to my capable assistant James C. Hilton, my efficient office staff, my wife Marjorie and my family, and to the students and people of Middleborough for their continuing support and cooperation.

Respectfully submitted,

Lincoln D. Lynch, D.Ed. Superintendent of Schools
