68 REPORT OF OSSIPEE POLICE DEPT. 1976

To the Selectmen and Citizens of the Town of Ossipee, N.H.

The past year has been a busy one for the Police Dept. The work load increased by 40 percent over 1975, and the traffic count was up 20 percent over 1975.

Although there was a significant increase in activity the department was successful in clearing a large number of cases. There were fewer burglaries and more arrests for the burglaries that did occur. A burglary in Granite resulted in three arrests with one serving jail time and two juveniles, another at The Ski Works in West Ossipee where approximately $5,000 in goods were recovered, one was a juvenile and two others were sent to jail. There were also four cases of receiving stolen property where restitution was ordered and the items recovered and returned to the owners.

The Cadet Program was a success again this year with little cost to the town.

There is a plan to apply for a Federal Grant to place an extra officer on duty during the summer months, this would cost the town very little.

Again this year we can report no fatal accidents in the town.

I would like to thank my officers, the town officials, other department heads, and the citizens of Ossipee for their cooperation and assistance this past year.

Respectfully, JOHN E. FOGARTY Chief of Police

A vital addition to the Ossipee Recreation Department has been the organization of the Ossipee Recreation and Parks Advisory Committee which has been meeting on the third Friday of each month since May of last year. The purpose of the committee is to develop committee guidelines specific to our community and its needs, advise the Recreation Department on matters of community recreation, bring suggestions of improvement from the citizens of the community, and to enhance public relations by making townspeople aware of programs available throughout the year.

Members serving on the committee are the following: Ellen Cox, Helen Drew, Jan Donovan, Donald Eldridge, and Bruce Rines.

74 With the increasing output of yearly programs, the Ossipee Recreation Department has relied on a greater number of volunteers, sponsors, and coaches, and the continued support of parents and interested citizens. We, therefore, extend our appreciation to these people who realize the importance of recreation to the community.

Respectfully submitted, JAMES THOMPSON Director of Recreation

75 BICENTENNIAL COMMITTEE REPORT

To the Townspeople of Ossipee:

The celebration of our nation's 200th birthday has ended, and I, as chairman of Ossipee's Bicentennial Committee feel that we added greatly to that celebration.

Early in 1976, plans were being made for the publication of a commemorative booklet. Many meetings resulted in the idea that a pictorial history of Ossipee, rather than a written one, (time being of importance) would be more interesting and easier to put together. With the help of several committee members and many interest townspeople, without whose generosity in lending their prized old photographs, the booklet - "Early Ossipee - A Pictorial View", became a realty. 2,000 books were printed with only a very small percentage sold to date. It was felt by the committee, however, that it would take a few years to sell the entire amount. As with many books of this type, all too soon copies become few and result as collectors items.

Another great tribute to Ossipee's heritage is the Bicentennial quilt. This project was sponsored by the Extension Group, and is a result of many talented ladies in the community. Each one of the 35 squares depicts a part of Ossipee.

The parade, this year headed by Dick Ziegler was once again a tremendous success, and it is planned for this to become an annual event.

The old town pound on Walker Hill Road was opened to the public on June 5. The Ossipee Girl Scouts took this project on and spent many hours clearing brush and moving rocks to restore the pound to its original condition.

Ossipee became an official bicentennial community on June 5. This was achieved by meeting goals set by the

76 American Revolution Bicentennial Committee. Accepting the Bicentennial flag and certificate of recognition was Chairman of Selectmen, Roger Busch. Also at this public ceremony held at the Town Hall was the dedication of the "Early Cemetery Records" book to its organizer, Mrs. Eva B. Loud. A dinner for the honored guest was held following the ceremony at the Shepherd's Inn.

An insignia contest, open to all elementary school children resulted in a design created by Jennifer Ziegler. It was decided to use the design on a ceramic tile. After a long wait, the tiles finally arrived from the factory (much later than promised). The committee felt the tiles were of poor quality, so steps are being taken to see if some sort of credit can be obtained for these tiles.

Town appropriations will be repaid in full as the **Early Ossipee' booklets are sold. Any profit thereafter will be placed in a bank account and used towards projects during Ossipee's own bicentennial in 1986.

My sincere thanks to everyone who helped make the bicentennial celebration a success. The support of everyone was appreciated. BRAYTON ELDRIDGE Chairman

Please note: Copies of the booklet - **Early Ossipee - A Pictorial View" are now available at the Town Hall.

79 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE OSSIPEE CONSERVATION COMMISSION

The Ossipee Conservation Commission, spawned at the 1976 Town Meeting, has had an eventful first year. Since the organizational meeting on April 14, 1976, we have had a series of well attended and well publicized public meetings. Our primary concern throughout the summer and fall was the pollution of Ossipee Lake. The appearance of an algae bloom in the lake this spring caused a major disturbance, and started our first year with a bang.

Throughout the summer, public meetings were held at the Superior Court house with public officials as speakers. In attendance were members of the Water Supply and Pollution Control Commission, the Lakes Region Planning Commission, and the Environmental Protection Agency - all concerned with Ossipee Lake. Besides being in- formative, these meetings were intended to put pressure on state and federal governments, so we would receive the benefit of complete testing of Ossipee Lake. It was the Commission's intention to get Ossipee included in the 208 testing program for water quality. Although the actual causes of the pollution are still questionable, we did get possibilities: over-population of the lake, faulty septic systems, annual flooding, weather conditions, topography, and natural causes. Many methods have been suggested for remedying the problems and identifying them with surety. For instance, we have been collecting photos and economic data of flood damage from lake residents to present to the Army Corps of Engineers, who surveyed Ossipee Lake at our request in August.

What was really needed was further testing and in- vestigation of the lake. The Commission has been suc- cessful in achieving this. Due to the meetings and public pressure Ossipee Lake is now fully established as a lake, and as a town water body with the state and federal governments. This means that now state and federal agencies will appropriate monies to solve the problems of

80 Ossipee Lake. The Commission has been successful in pinpointing the problem of the algae bloom and related problems, although causes are being investigated.

The lake is presently in a transitional state, going from pristine to a less then pristine, intermediate stage. It is the responsibility of all of us to hold the lake at its

present level of aging ; preventing it from going to the next undesirable stage. The prevention and solutions are the tasks of the Commission's second year.

Other areas investigated were the town septic system, the water quality of Dan Hole Pond, the 3,200 acre proposed state forest, various Dredge and Fill permits, the Deer Cove condominiums and their systems of waste removal, and the collection of town maps. We are now in the process of writing articles for Town Meeting according to our findings. It should also be noted that the Con- servation Commission was selected by the selectmen to be the "watchdogs" of the new proposed town septic system.

We had an extremely informative and successful year guarding Ossipee's natural resources. We look forward to the continued and increased support of the Town.

Our members are the following:

81 OSSIPEE PLANNING BOARD Center Ossipee, New Hampshire 03814

Gentlemen: The Ossipee Planning Board gave final approval to approximately one hundred lots submitted for subdivision. Ninety percent of these lost were owned by commercial developers. The lots submitted were, for the most part, on Class V town roads.

A considerable amount of time was spent attempting to determine if the Board had jurisdiction over the former Deer Cove Lodge Resort, Inc. property. This property was purchased by a developer, who turned the cabin colony into condominiums. The result of numerous hours of in- vestigation with various state agencies and Town Counsel was that The Planning Board, under present law, has no jurisdiction in this type of development.

The proposed zoning ordinance, to be presented at the 1977 Town Meeting, was a major project of the Board. Several ordinances presently in use by other New Hamp- shire towns were studied, with the decision that the basic format used by the Town of Belmont was best suited to the needs of Ossipee. The ordinance was the restructured with the aim of providing a liberal ordinance which would af- ford protection for the property owner without creating hardship for his neighbor.

The Planning Board appreciates the cooperation extended to it by the Town Officers, Town Counsel Frederic L. Cox and especially to The Lakes Region Planning Commission Staff.

Sincerely, PETER D. BILLINGS Chairman

82 OSSIPEE NURSING SERVICE

Total Nursing Visits 735 Visits to Children 40 Visits to Adults 695 Total number of families using nursing services Approx. 100

Pediatric & Immunization Clinics (in cooperation with Dr. Anne Collins & N.H. Public Health Dept.) 4 Average number of children in attendance 25 Swine Flu clinic -November 334 Meetings & workshops attended Learning conference on Teaching Self Breast Examination Swine flu clinic meetings

The nursing service increased its service in the number of visits in the community. The greatest number of visits continue to be to the elderly, but the number of births also increased this year.

The Swine Flu clinic was held at the Town Hall in Center Ossipee for all citizens over 18 years of age. Co- operation between the N.H. Public Health Dept., Ossipee Nursing Service & Dr. Anne Collins made this disease preventive measure of value to the citizens. Special thanks is extended to Dr. Collins, the many nurses of Ossipee and the Concerned Citizen Group who donated much time.

Blood pressure readings are taken at the nursing office and reports made to physicians. Medical equipment for loan for home care continues wth the hospital bed, 2 wheelchairs and 3 walkers presently on loan. Emphasis on home care continues for the citizens of Ossipee.

Respectfully submitted, BARBARA ANDERSON, R.N.

83 REPORT OF DISTRICT FIRE CHIEF AND TOWN FOREST FIRE WARDEN

Since its beginning in 1893, the State Forestry Department has recognized the fact that forest fire prevention and suppression is a joint state and town or city responsibility. Local authorities recommend names of persons to the State Forester, who appoints one person as town or city fire warden and several other persons as town or city deptuy fire wardens to a three year term.

The local forest fire warden controls the kindling of all outside fires, when the ground is not covered with snow, by issuing a written permit for kindling a fire. Permits are only issued at such times and in such places as the fire warden deems as safe.

The State Forest Fire Service trains the local forest fire organization in modern forest fire prevention and suppression tactics. The State also provides backup personnel and equipment for suppression and prevention activities.

The combination of State and local forces has resulted in one of the smallest acreage loss due to forest fires in the United States for the past 20 years.
