Board of Selectmen 'our Board of Selectmen is pleased to report that iTown of Mansfield progressed forward in 1991 h activities designed to improve services and tect the environment. Fiscal conservatism and ng within the strict limitsof Proposition 21/2 were a jllenge with ever growing demands for service. spite these constraints, the hard work and ication of Town officials and staff produced merous noteworthy accomplishments. • The completion of the Hope Street - Chauncy Street signalization project funded by $120 ,000 in CDAG funds has provided increased pedestrian and vehicular safety. • The revitalization of downtown Mansfield with " the completion of a $514,000 sidewalk, street reconstruction, and lighting project. In addition, the Municipal Light Department has laid underground conduit and is removing its service overhead. We also were successful in getting New England Telephone to lay conduit in the street at no cost to the taxpayer or local rate payer. • The plans for the East Mansfield Sewer Project were prepared and approved and, after a second referendum vote which was successful, an application was made to the State for a grant to reduce the cost of borrowing. The project is expected to cost $2.3 million and is scheduled to begin in the spring of 1992. • The Town rejected proposed MBTA plans to relocate the Train Station near School Street after receiving public input. The new strategy is to demand improvements to the existing Train Station which address traffic and parking inadequacies. • An updated radio communication system was fully implemented after additional required funds were secured for the Police and Fire Departments. This improved system received its first major test during Hurricane Bob and received rave reviews. • The Board of Selectmen appointed William F. Williams of Pelham, New York as Town Manager. Town Meeting re- approved an amended bonding limit of $1.1 million for the Cabot, Cabot and Forbes Industrial Park Betterments. This extensive public improvement project began in the fall of 1991 and was largely completed. There is now improved electric capacity, storm and sewer upgrades, road reconstruction, new signage, and signalization which are a marked improvement to the CCU properties. These dramatic infrastructure improvements to the Industrial Park enhance its competitiveness and are being funded by the direct beneficiaries and not the residential taxpayer. Goal setting has produced results. The Board established a defined goal setting process with Boards and Committees and Town Departments and this has improved communication between the Board, the School Committee, and the Finance Committee. The Mansfield Green Recycling Park opened in May 1991 and residents are recycling at increased levels. The Solid Waste Committee and numerous volunteers are to be congratulated for their efforts. The Board of Selectmen is appreciative of resident input and welcomes your comments and involvement in Town affairs. Through your active participation, we will better serve you and be more responsive to your needs. Mansfield Cub Scouts visit a Selectmen's meeting to fulfill scouting requirements. Amos M.

A new theme of unity and teamwork was the focus of the year's accomplishments. The initiation of departmental goals and objectives has provided a greater coordinated effort and has enhanced performance with a marked increase in productivity. The revised management style and leadership have facilitated the many accomplishments denoted in the report. A select few are enumerated below: Financial Administration: • The Town's budget was scrutinized with great tenacity and reductions were made in order to present a budget within the limits of Proposition 21/2. Excellent cooperation was the hallmark of the efforts of the Board of Selectmen, School Committee and Finance Committee in arriving at reductions. 0 The six year Capital Improvement program was updated and scheduled major revisions are underway consistent with revised environmental, financial forecasts, and needs. • The fiscal yearwas marked bya successful bond sale for the new elementary school and the retainage of our A bond rating with Moody's Investment Services. The Town sold $20,450,000 in bonds and was mentioned for a Possible upgrade in the future. This was achieved despite the uncertain fi: environment at the state level. • State aid was reduced again by $628,117 your local revenues are providing a gre share of the Town budget. Personnel Administration • A full time Assistant to the Town Manaf Position established in 1990 was eliminated budget cuts. All duties have been absorbed existing staff. • The Town's management structure has I redefined. Two management positions eliminated in the Department of Public W These changes improved communica among line departments, increa productivity, reduced operating costs, and I led to service improvements. • Six labor agreements representing all 1 municipal units were successfully negot for three years. The first contracts with the Supervisory and Non - Supervisory units i among them. These agreements were i without any use of outside labor counsel contain give -backs on employee he insurance contributions. Despite a severe state recession, Mansfield shoe evidence of strength in its improving downtown a in increased home building activity. The ensui years will be a greater challenge as we seek maintain this momentum and confront n( demands. The Town Manager's overall objective is achieve excellence in service to the residents of t Town of Mansfield and maximize the use of scar resources. Bill Williams, Town Manager, strives to deliver the highest quality services. at" r �� In the case of on efner$encg, &1911 for both the Police and fire Departments. iblic Safety Police Department the past year the Police Department experienced 3.5% increase in requests for police services. )orted violent crimes increased by 40 %, while the )artment saw a 12% reduction in reported thefts i- burglaries. The number of traffic accidents reased by 27% compared with last year. The tuber of liquor related offenses, such as operating der the influence and public intoxicants, increased 25%. Drug law violation investigations increased 40% in one year's time. the number of traffic citations issued by the Police partment went down by 53% compared with the :vious year, a sign of much greater compliance th the traffic laws within our town, caused mainly the department's policy of strict enforcement of traffic laws. Fire Department e Fire Department is charged with the Dnsibility of protecting the lives. and property of citizens of Mansfield from Fires, Hazardous trials Incidents and also provides Ambulance -8- 1 -9- Services for the community. The fire service is constantly changing nationwide and Mansfield is no exception. As the population grows the demand for services has increased along with the responsibility of protecting lives and property and providing ambulance services, the Fire Department has nowentered a newfield ... response to hazardous materials incidents. These hazardous materials incidents present a new challenge for the firefighters of today. There has been tremendous progress made this past year in the areas of Fire Prevention /Education and Inspections to ensure compliance with all applicable fire codes and M.G.L. Chapter 148, providing a safe environment for all. The department is staffed by a Chief, Deputy Chief, (5) Lieutenants, twenty (20) Firefighters, eleven (11) Call Firefighters and one Secretary. This past year one officer and one firefighter were trained as Hazardous Materials technicians in conjunction with the District 1 Haz /Mat team. The EMT training officer has also provided many training sessions, including the use of the defibrillator and has also successfully recertified our EMTs to better serve the residents of our community. The future will bring more changes to the fire service. As these changes develop, fire service personnel will adapt to these through the continual process of developing and implementing reachable goals and objectives. The dedicated members of the Mansfield Fire Department will continue to strive to provide the most effective and efficient services to meet the needs of the citizens of Mansfield. MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS THIS YEAR INCLUDE: • The department has completed the installation of the 800 Mhz radio system including a new low band radio base station. The citizens are to be commended for their support of this new radio equipment as it has already proven its value. • Continued compliancewith Massachusetts Fire Prevention Regulations in the removal of underground storage tanks. • Delivery of the new ambulance which was approved by Town meeting is expected by February 1992. • The Central Fire Station roof was replaced in November 1991. Civil Defense Agency The Mansfield Civil Defense Agency is charged with the overall "Emergency Preparedness Planning" for the Town of Mansfield. This includes the coordination of all resources of the Town, public and private, professional and volunteer, to avert or combat the effects of disaster. A pool of trained volunteer manpower service is provided to the Town in both emergency and non - emergency situations. As a group, the agency was called out twelve times in 1991 and logged in an excess of 12,500 volunteer hours. Five of these "call outs" were for area lost person searches. These well- trained, dedicated volunteer members were able to respond in an efficient, effective manner at the onset of "Hurricane Bob ". Work crews supplied emergency power to residents using the two trailer- mounted generators while others helped to clear away the debris. A shelter was opened at the Middle School. When assignments were completed in Mansfield, members volunteered to go to Somerset, Wareham, and Westport to aid in the recovery effort in those communites. There are a total of 72 active members. Civil Defense is divided into five operational units: Auxiliary Police, Medical, Communications, Engineering, and Administrative. Individual units are responsible for specialized activities ranging from the offering of Police Support with Criminal Justice Training Academy education, EMT response and presence at special events, fine tuning of emergency communication skills, as well as equipment maintenance and inventory control. The Town's Local Emergency Planning Committee, which consists of department heads and individuals with an interest in emergency planning, continues meet on a regular basis. A table -top exercise with ti aid of the State is planned for June of 1992. Volunteer members continued to train in the use the Civil Defense computer and various softwa programs during 1991. Plans, resource inventori hazardous materials inventories within the Tow etc., are in the process of begin loaded and update With the completion of the new State Radio Project February 1992 this computer will also be tied into tl State Civil Defense Computer System via the red link. 1991 was a productive year for Civil Defense. Bi on the downside, with the unexpected expenses "Hurricane Bob" and a desire to remain within ti Fyl992 budget, several projects and purchases ha been deferred. Available manpower again plac constraints on agency responses to requests f services. New members have been recruited durit 1991, but the need far exceeds resources. All that required is a willingness and dedication to serve; tl required training will be provided.

The Engineering Town owned buildings. These buildings include: 12 13 Town Hall /Police Station, Paine School, Highway Garage, both Fire Stations, the Library /COA Building and the Fisher Richardson House. One of the major concerns this year was to work at making all our buildings as energy efficient as Possible. This included caulking windows, installing fans for air circulation, and putting plastic on the windows of our older buildings to eliminate drafts and reduce heat loss. Other projects included constructing stairs and ramps and a bulletin board at the Recycling Park, installation of an air exchange system at the Highway Garage to protect employees from diesel fumes and relocating the shop room at the Fruit Street Sludge Landfill These area few of the types of projects undertaken by the Building Operations Department each year, along with the day to day schedule of regular maintenance work. Highway Department The Highway Department is responsible for the repairs and maintenance of roads, sidewalks, sewers, and drains. Although these are our primary responsibilities, they are not our only ones. A few of the Highway Departments projects this year, outside of our regular operation, included constructing and operating the Mansfield Green Recycling Park, drainage improvements on Willow, Maple and Ware Streets, installing a sewer main on Thompson Street, and regrading the north end of Bird Road. Our regular operations including mowing, street and sidewalk sweeping, brush cutting, catch basin cleaning, cold patching, signage, and infra - redding. These operations are done on a daily basis throughout the year depending on the weather, with priority given to matters effecting public safety. During the winter months road sanding and snow Plowing take priority over all else. Motor Pool Department This Department maintains light and heavy vehicles for thirteen departments. This is accomplished through scheduled and non - scheduled work. The Motor Pool also maintains all small engine equipment. Also maintained by this Department are the Route 106 and North Main Street underpass pumps. The Route 106 pumps are in very good condition, but the North Main Street pumps are in need of major work in the near future. Each pumphouse has two pumps Pumping two thousand gallons per minute. The North Main Street pumps work five times as much as the Route 106 pumps because of the greater flow of groundwater into this pumphouse. Water Division The Water Division consists of a staff of eleven a has the primary responsibility of providing adequate safe drinking water supply to nearly 10( of the residents of Mansfield. It does this througf system of eight (8) wells and approximately nin( miles of pipe. There is 4.5 million gallons of store capacity between the Foolish Hill (undergrour Reservoir and the Oxford Road standpipe. Tf storage capacity is equal to more than two (2) dal average demand. The department also has tl responsibility of maintenance and repair of ti distribution system, meter installations ar readings, operations and maintenance of eight ( wells and five (5) corrosion control systems, ar grounds maintenance of the well and reservoir site Water demand for 1991 was 5.4% less than 1990. The average daily demand was 2.220 millic gallons per day for a total of 810,264,000 gallons fi the year. While the average daily demand was les the dry summer caused extremely high deman( during June and July. There were several perioc where pumping exceeded 4.0 million gallons per d¢ which caused groundwater supplies to showsigns i being stressed. A voluntary conservation plan wa Put into effect, and while the results were on marginally successful, conservation did help u through a critical period. Serious consideratio should be given to developing the Ash Property an getting that well on line. Due to FY'92 budget reductions both the wate meter replacement program and the conversion fror lime to potassium hydroxide at Cate Springs war eliminated. The water meter replacement prograr helps insure' customers are billed in an equitabl manner. The conversion from line injection t, potassium' hydroxide would help us lower th potential copper and lead levels at the consumer', tap. The low pH of the water supply causes coppe and lead (in houses built before the lead solder ban) ti leach from the home water pipes into the water. Thr conversion to potassium hydroxide would allow staf to do a better, more consistantjob toward minimizing the problem. Water Pollution Control Facility The Water Control Facility consists of a 3.14 million gallons per day advanced wastewater treatment plant and a sludge landfill /compost facility. The facility and staff of twelve have the primary responsibility of abating the potential pollution of local ground and surface waters caused by sewage and septage generated in the towns of Mansfield, Foxboro, and Norton. The effluent (water cleaned by the treatment process) is discharged into the Three Mile River, which flows to the Taunton River and eventually into the upper Narragansett Bay. In May 1991 the plant again received high marks in the Save the Bay Annual Report. The report listed the facility as having the lowest concentrations of of all facilities discharged into the bay. uring 1991 the facility treated 647.3 million ins of wastewater for an average daily flow of 73 million gallons per day. This flow represents i% of the plant capacity. Included in these flow res are 9,371,000 gallons of septage or 39,045 ons per day. With a removal rate greater than o, we removed 1,944,950 pounds of pollutants in form of sludge. Approximately half was buried in sludge landfill during the winter while the iainder was composted. Although the compost is 3enerally good quality, state regulations have le it difficult to use off site. These regulations are acted to be relaxed as of January 1992, which will w us to beneficially use the compost on non -food Work began in the spring on the Infiltration /Inflow jdy. This will identify sources of groundwater or ter unpolluted water getting into the sewer system d using capacity at the plant. While the majority of a work is complete there is some remaining work rich cannot be completed until next spring. The rehabilitation of the Union Street Extension [station was completed in July 1991. The outdated id inefficient system was completely replaced by a bmersible pump system with enough capacity to set the highest flows in the area. The original ation was designed to handle the flows from ten )mes. Currently there are thirty -seven homes !rved by this liftsation. The new system has cut rwn dramatically the number of emergency calls. Wastewater flows from Foxboro are averaging )proximately 200,000 gallons per day. The flows am Norton are considerably less than projected, )proximately 50,000 gallons per day. Tie -ins have )ne slower than expected according to the Town of mmunity Development Planning Department The Planning Department is composed of three Full -time employees: a Planning Director, a Subdivision Inspector, and an Administrative Secretary, all of which provide professional and assistance to the Planning Board, the public, and other Boards and Town Departments. The Planning Department staff has successfully participated in formulating two workout plans with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in orderto complete several unfinished subdivision roadways. In addition, departmental staff has assisted in arranging two other settlements to complete subdivision construction. Services provided by the Planning Department include review of subdivision plans and other recommendations on Special Permit applications, variance applications, and municipal projects. The Planning Department staff also prepared amendments and revisions of subdivision regulations and Zoning By -Laws to be considered by the Planning Board. The Department's staff inspects unaccepted subdivision streets, sidewalks, drainage systems and other improvements. In order to promote efficiency and reduce costs, the Subdivision Inspector's position is proposed to be transferred to the Engineering Department for FY92 -93. Planning Board In addition to conducting several workshops to discuss amendments to the Subdivision Rules and Regulations and to the Zoning By -Laws, the Planning Board has concentrated on many significant issues facing the community such as MBTA commuter station relocation, Route 106 speed limit reduction, downtown revitalization, and initiation of a first -time homebuyer's packet. The Planning Board continues to take a proactive approach to development proposals within the Town. During the winter and spring months, the Planning Board concluded a second series of modification hearings to establish final completion dates for all roadways and other required improvements within approved subdivisions. As a result of modification hearings and the dedication and assistance of the Subdivision Inspector, forty -two streets were accepted at the Spring 1991 Town Meeting and twenty -two additional streets are expected to be completed in Spring of 1992. ITEM AMOUNT Finished Roadways 2 Miles Finished Curbing 4 Miles Finished Sidewalks 2 Miles Loam & Seeding 3 Acres Street Trees 197 Street Light Poles 33 Fire Alarm Boxes 8 —14— 1 —15— In addition, the Planning Board has been working closely with the Conservation Commission to establish a coordinated reviewprocessof preliminary subdivision plans which will streamline the review process. In the coming year the Planning Board will continue to work with the Conservation Commission as well as other Boards and Committees in order to better provide a coordinated approach to development issues and provide a higher level of service to the Town. Conservation Commission As evidenced elsewhere in other sections of this Annual Report, the rapid growth of residential development continues in Mansfield. In 1991, the Conservation Commission held public hearings for forty -seven new single - family homes. Numerous hearings were held for additions to existing structures and five new subdivisions were reviewed. Trains have had a large and varied role in the development of Mansfield. The purpose of these hearings, required under State Law, is to protect the Town's wetland related resources. The type of resources being protected are illustrated below: �`" RESAJYCE � D /I READ Soar -EZ. zoaE I ♦ '/ i peESa uPV+up uan<s R+�EtS I Nf4l LAKES EMS gu.b n When an activity occurs within one of these resource areas, including the buffer zone, a permit is required. (Basic homeowner related activities, such as planting a garden or pruning trees, do not require a permit.) The permitting process may take as few as 21 days, or as many as 50 days, depending on the complexity of the project. The permit granting process insures that impacts to the wetlands are eliminated or minimized. Since wetlands protect drinking water supplies, control flooding, reduce pollution impacts, and prov habitat areas for fish and wildlife, the Town bene when wetlands are preserved. Zoning Board of Appeals The Zoning Board of Appeals held 19 regu meetings January through November, 1991. T Board received a total of 47 applications of which f( were withdrawn before the hearing dates, two w( withdrawn without prejudice at the time of t hearing. Results of the hearings are broken down follows: Section I — General: Three applications approved as variances; four applications denied. Section III — Use Regulations: Three applications approved as variances; two applications denied. Section IV — Intensity Regulations: 24 applications approved as variances; ten applications denied. Section V — Special Provisions and Permits: Two applications approved as variances. Special VI — Appeal from the Decision of the Bu Inspector: Two decisions upheld (appeals denied). ,) rA A dam creates falcon's Pond, which is a favorite recreation spot. Health Department As Mansfield continues to grow, the environment s stressed. How does this relate to the Board of Health? The 3oard of Health is charged by the Commonwealth to enforce laws and create local regulations, as needed, or the protection of the environment in order to )romote public health. A healthy environment, both llobally and locally, is vital to personal health. The 3oard has worked this year to protect and enhance he local environment and personal health in a dariety of ways. The Board continues to sponsor and operate household hazardous waste collections and automotive waste collections. To date 2,800 gallons of household chemicals, 5,500 gallons of oil, 2,100 tires and 700 batteries have been disposed of by means other than landfilling. As development continues at a frenzied pace, the Board has recognized that pollution of groundwater in our aquifers will become a serious problem in the not too distant future. The Board has taken a pro- active stand in this problem by supporting the East Mansfield sewer. The sewer is a transport device to move wastewater from an area of concern to an area for treatment and re- introduction to the environment. -16- -17- A turf regulation was adopted which requires commercial lawncare companies to file product information with the Board of Health, post treated lawns with the name of the chemicals used, and to carry spill control material. The purpose of this regulation is make information easily available to both subscribers of lawncare and their neighbors to aid in a variety of decisions for very localized environmental protection. In the personal health care area, the Board of Health voted to order fluoridation of the. municipal water supply. This action was taken to increase the level of dental health protection for our children. A variety of health benefits among the older citizens is an added advantage. As we have in the past, the Board of Health continues to offer clinics for cholesterol, blood pressure, flu and immunization. In addition to special projects, the Health Department continues to perform its mandated duties in the areas of housing, water pollution control, food services, and other public and environmental health areas. As always, the Board of Health and the Health Department strive to provide the people of Mansfield with a responsive resource. JULY summer camp ... "Arts in the Parks" "Concerts on the Commons" ...

Council on Aging Statistics show that by the year 2000, persons 65 id older are expected to represent 13.0 %of the U.S. ipulation, and this percentage may climb to 21.8% the year 2030. In 1991 the Council on Aging experienced the eatest demand for servcies than in any previous ear. The effect of state cut - backs, loss of grant nding, Medicare /Medicaid changes with a higher )st of living has created the need to help many more ders and community members. Four Major components for the Council on Aging ave seen the greatest demand for expanded service OUTREACH — Frail Elders are those elders who ire ill, homebound, and lack family support services, =arty discharges from hospitals, and lack of availability for nursing home care. The COA has initiated a service plan for each client needing assistance. Through the Outreach Service the client is setup with any number of services and may include home - delivered meals, transportation to medical appointments, respite care (volunteer coordination), shopping and errands, any any other services necessary for Frail Elder support. This year the Outreach Program services 446 elders needing support services. VOLUNTEER SERVICES — Through the Coordination of Volunteers, the COA has expanded Service Provision for elders who need further transportation to medical /dental services when the Escort Service is unavailable. At the present time the COA has fourteen volunteers who have given their time to help the COA expand transportation services for many more clients. Volunteer Companionship /Visitation has enabled one on one contact with clients to help them with errands /shopping needs, meal preparation, housekeeping and any other services that may be needed. Volunteers are utilized throughout the COAto help in all areas of the functioning of the Center on a day to day basis. The Council on Aging has relied upon the Friends Volunteers for Social functions, Newsletter distribution, fund - raising events and many miscellaneous events throughout the year. ESCORT SERVICES — Transportation demands for elders to Medical Appointments have risen dramatically. The COA has serviced 200 more clients in FY 91 than FY 90. Demands for cancer and dialysis treatments, medical day care, and hospital tests has risen dramatically. The need to obtain transportation service is a high priority for many elderly who cannot or do not drive. 600 Elderly were transported in FY 91 through the Escort Service alone a total of 14,708 miles. SOCIAL SERVICES — Due to a depressed economy, The COA has received numerous calls for assistance. Problems relating to food, clothing, shelter, furniture and fuel assistance have been a high priority. Coordination of the Community Resource Network has enabled 91 familiesto receive help. The Council on Aging continues to expand Intergenerational, Health, Social, and Educational Programming and to meet the day -to -day needs of the elder population wherever possible. The quality of life for many people will depend on how communities can respond and work together to help each other. -is- 11 -is- "Hurricane Bob" Number of Elders Serviced FIVE YEAR PERSPECTIVE FY 87 FY 88 FY 89 FY 90 FY5 Center 7,569 7,928 7,320 6,320 7,7C Escort Service 387 445 497 514 6C Mileage 7,060 7,413 10,834 12,665 14,7C Gatra Van 3,715 3,466 3,416 3,754 6,91 Mileage 10,424 13,475 13,634 14,879 12,4£ Meals Program Site 3,790 2,515 2,600 2,604 2,03 Home Delivery 6,584 2,319 3,410 5,816 4,13 Total 10,374 4,834 6,010 8,420 6,17 Outreach 491 449 369 455 44 Miscellaneous Programs 4,894 4,953 4,862 4,715 5,72 Social Services Families - - - 35 9 under age 60 *Escort Service figure does not include volunteer Service Provision. Additional clients were served by volunteers. Approximately 124 additional rides were provided. Outreach Service is doing more in -home care and spending additional time with clients due to state cut -back for FY 90 and 91. In 1987 two outreach workers worked through the COA. Veterans' Services As mentioned in last year's Annual Report this Department of Veterans Services is becoming increasingly busy. For this report it should be noted that those involved in the Desert Storm /Persian Gulf War are now beginning to seek veterans assistance, some just to record their military papers, and others to seek help or information. Some of these more recent veterans are notable to find work. Others, who left jobs to go on active duty, are finding that those former jobs and even entire companies no longer exist. Many are advised to apply for unemployment compensation. They may qualify for benefits earned in former jobs and some credit may be added for service time if duty was long enough. Under a new federal emergency unemployment compensation law signed in December some former military persons who were denied unemployment compensation in the past may now qualify. After this benefit is used up, the Department of Veterans Services can then assist in most cases. Expenditures for Veterans Services are reimbursed at 75% by the State. However, even at this level of assistance it becomes increasingly difficult to provide requested services on a level funded budget. Butfor all veterans in ourcommunity Veterans Services will be available for short and long term problem resolution. Dinah Smith, Library Director, brings great depth L services and is a member of the Eastern Massac Regional Library Planning and Budget Committee. Public Library The Mansfield Library continues to be a center community activity with an increasing circulation. The Library and Council on Aging Center offer soMefhing for eiveryond en information center the library has seen an increase in requests concerning the job market, local government, do- it- yourself information, and research topics. The meeting room has been used 182 nights by local civic groups and organizations presenting programs of interest to the local community. The Library itself presents programs for youth and adults in the meeting room; these programs are sponsored by various groups such as the Friends of the Library, the local Arts Lottery Council, and the Board of Library Trustees. All presentations and meetings in this room arefree and open to public. Winter brought school projects, research, and the appointment of Mrs. Vivian Sweet to the Board of Trustees. Highest circulation totals occur during this, quarter. Spring brings National Library Week, garden lovers, do- it- yourselfers, more visitors to the library as those seeking their "roots" begin to research family trees. The Friends of the Library hold their annual book sale in May. Funds are raised to support library programs, especially children's programs. Summer brings students searching for that special summer reading book, people looking for that perfect book to take on vacation, summer hours and the second highest circulation months of the year. Summer Reading in the youth department brings in -20- ; f 1 -21- many readers searching for clues, magic and the joy of reading. Fall comes full circle with Children's Book week, return of students for projects, Friends meetings, and much more. The Library is truly a community place, for all people, all ages, and all seasons. Education Public Schools It is with pride and pleasure thatthe Annual Report of the School Department is presented to the residents of the Town of Mansfield. This report presents several systemwide and specific school accomplishments. This past year a number of changes have occurred with regard to personnel, programs and operations. In the paragraphs that follow an overview regarding several of these significant changes is presented. Significant investment of time has been directed toward the development of an updated systemwide curriculum in all subject areas. An investment has been made in the study of the components of skillful and effective instructional practices, as researched by Jonathan Saphier and Robert Gower. All administrators and department heads have completed the course. In the next two years it is intended that all teachers will participate in a similar program of study. A satellite dish was installed on the grounds of Mansfield High School. The dish was provided by our local cable access station. In addition, they purchased a two -year membership in M.C.E.T. (The Massachusetts Educational Television). This long distance television hook -up will increase learning opportunities for students; staff devleopment opportunities for staff members and training sessions for parents. We're greatly indebted and most appreciative for the efforts and support of the local Cable Board of Directors. A systemwide statement of philosophy and objectives has been developed. Much input was received from staff and parents. This work serves as the cornerstone for the development and implementation of curriculum program activities and instructional strategies. Perhaps the highlight of the year occurred when Mansfield High School received notice that it had been selected by the United States Department of Educational as a National Blue Ribbon School. This distinction is bestowed upon schools that demonstrate excellence in program offerings, instructional effectiveness, etc. We're very proud to have been selected. Buildings /Grounds: Supported by a vote of Town Meeting members, the fire alarm systems at the Robinson School and Mansfield High School were upgraded. The bid for this project was $7,000 below the projected amount that was approved by Town Meeting members. All school alarm systems are now up to date. Bob Jones announced his retirement following eight dedicated years of service. Bob was known for the extra effort that he gave to his job. In addition to the long hours that he worked on behalf of the Town, Bob was also the number one cheerleader for several of the athletic teams. Bob is recognized and appreciated for the quality and quantity of work provided on behalf of the Town. Following Bob's retirement, the Marriott Corporation was hired to provide supervision, training and maintenance for the School Department's buildings and grounds. The Marriott Corporation's many resources serve to support the planning and implementation of a first rate cleaning and maintenance system. In addition, we envision realizing financial savings in the second and third year of their contract. The first major improvement focused on the recurring ventilation problem at Mansfield High School. Within the first month of service, several improvements to the HVAC system were noted. In addition, the heating and ventilation system in the Qualters Middle School was corrected. On December 1, 1990, ground was broken for two new elementary schools. One year later the structure was near completion. The School Committee designated the name for each school in honor of two teachers: Margaret Jordan, primary teacher and Principal of the Roland Green School from 1934 to 1973 and Anne Jackson, high school foreigi language teacher from 1979 to 1990. Each schoc will serve up to 600 students. The unique structure links the two buildings with one media center, om gymnasium, one cafeteria and shared specia education facilities. A seven - member Municipa Building Committee, chaired by Steven McCaffrie has faithfully supervised this building project. The School Department and the Town is indebted to the committee including: Andrea Michaeli, Loui Amoruso, Emil Giordano, Frank Guardabascio Charles Antonuccio, Gary Murphy, and Rober Gurek, ex officio, for their investment of time anc quality service on behalf of the Town. During the past year several new laws were passe at the state level which impacted the local schoc district. Perhaps the most significant addresse school bus transportation. Previously, districts war reimbursed for the transportation of all students (K 12), who lived one and a half miles or more fror school. At one time the reimbursement was 1000/( however, in recent years it has been reduced to abou 36% of the total cost. The new law limits th requirement of school districts to provid transportation for children in grades K - 6 who liv two or more miles from school. This change in lav has resulted in the local school department makin adjustments. Transportation was provided for ai students residing 1.5 miles or more from school Students residing inside the 1.5 mile radius wen offered transportation on a fee basis. This change was met with initial concern, however, genera acceptance was noted within six weeks o implementations. The Town of Mansfield has experienced significant growth spurt. One family starter home: are being built in a rapid fashion. Between 1988 ant 1992, enrollments will have increased by almos 20% while staffing has decreased. The following chart provided visual support to the growth being experienced in the School Department.

This is a challenge even in the best of times. However, the Town of Mansfield has a history of appreciating and supporting education. The pay offs come in knowing the investment has resulted in the high school's gnition by the U. S. Department of Education and outstanding instruction is taking place in several s within the department. e thank the public for their past support and look card to a continued partnership in the future. High School Paving been notified in the spring that Mansfield Ih School had been selected by the U.S. partment of Education as a "Blue Ribbon School ", 1991 -92 school year opened on a highly positive te. The presentation of the award took place in ishington, D.C. on September 23 -25, 1991, urinating at a luncheon where President Bush s the speaker. Mr. Rosa, the Principal, Mrs. iherty, the Assistant Principal, and Mr. Anderson, glish Department Chair, represented Mansfield 1h School at the ceremonies. the second celebration, which was held in the ditorium during the evening, was a town wide jute. At that ceremony, the teachers and support iff were honored for their dedication and high level performance. Another highlight of the fall was the visit in :tober 6 -9, of the Visiting Committee of the New igland Association of Schools and Colleges. After ending three and a half days at Mansfield High, the immittee left with a very positive image of the hool. The report from the N.E.A.S.C. will become a iblic document early in 1992. The winning of the "School of Excellence" award id the positive evaluation from the N.E.A.S.C. is an dication that the work of the staff during the 1990- 1 school year was productive. In addition, the staff as involved with the K -12 curriculum review oject and yet never failed to expend extra time and fort to insure that the quality academic and co- irricular programs at Mansfield High were Listed below are some of the accomplishments of HS during 1991: • Mansfield High was cited by the United States Department of Education ss a "Blue Ribbon School ". • 84% of the studentstaking A.P. Examsscored (3 or better). • Acomputer basedtracking system for discipline was implemented. • New progress reports were developed. • Interdisciplinary instruction between the Business and English departments, and the Social Studies and English departments were expanded. • An extensive cleaning program resulted in many corridors and classrooms being painted. • The Mansfield High School Academic Decathlon Team finished 2nd in the small school division, 10th in the overall competition, and qualified for the State Finals. The strong academic program offered at Mansfield High continues to produce results as the students apply to colleges. 68°% of the graduates of the Class of 1991 furthered their education, with forty -five percent of the graduates matriculating to a four -year college or university. The following is a list of colleges and schools to which members of the Class of 1991 have applied and have been accepted. The number in parentheses is the number of students who have indicated intent of enrollment for the coming school year.

While temporarily Mansfield schools take a creetirre approach to physical fitness. housed at the middle school, 223 fifth graders area n integral part of the Robinson Elementary School under the supervision and administration of Mr. Cormier. This will be the final year that the fifth grade will be housed at QMS. Next year, fifth graders will be distributed between the Jordan, the Jackson, and the Robinson Elementary Schools. Special Education services for middle school children include a pilot program involving special education staff teaching alongside regular education staff in a cooperative instructional model. This staff configuration guarantees maximum mainstreamed services for identified pupils, as well as major enhancement of the regular education program. Since initiating his principalship at QMS last July, Jim Hunt has been impressed with the significant level of parent interest and direct involvement at the middle school. Meetings held in August included a representative sampling of parents who quickly identified services and programs which would potentially benefit from direct parent support. The Parent Advisory Council (PAC) continues to meet monthly, publishes a monthly newsletter mailed to parents, and recruits volunteers. The PAC offers a sounding board for parent /teacher concerns and a forum for the inception and development of new programs. With the continued interest and support of the community, theyoung people at QMCwill experience a meaningful, diverse and stimulating learning -2q- environment. E.W. Robinson Elementary Accomplishments and initiatives for the 1990 -9' school yearwere numerous and included the areas o curriculum, administration, fund raising, socia events, volunteerism, organizational structure, an( planning for the opening of the Jordan / Jacksor Elementary School Complex. The Parent Advisory Council (PAC) had another strong fund raising year that enabled them t( purchase materials to build an amphitheater Parents, staff, and administration spent a Saturda) constructing an addition to Wonderworks. Th( amphitheater has already received considerable us( in the form of plays, award ceremonies, and chore presentations. Once again the spirit of camaraderi( among the entire school community was evident. The PAC was also supportive of administration': proposal for a "scientist in residence" and funded a project to bring Scott Yellin to the school to work wit' students and teachers in developing anc implementing high quality, experiential life science programs. Scott has met with teachers an administration several times during the spring and fall and will be meeting with team leaders and teachers to further explore his involvement. The PAC conducted a pancake breakfast and a Iler skating party. The purpose of these was to bring gether groups of adults and children. Volunteerism was a strong component in the ;livery of curriculum to children. A dramatic crease in parent involvement on the writing ocess occurred. One team accommodated that rterest by training parents in the proper teaching rategies and content of teaching writing. This rterest has now been extended to other parents who rill be receiving similar training through our urriculum Specialist/ Enrichment Teacher. Goal setting by academic teams included multi -age xperiences for children. In some instances children corked with their younger peers to produce and 4ach math games, conduct peer editing, and engage t science activities. One fourth grade team onducted a weekly science /math lab for third and )urth graders. Children had the opportunityto select topic of interest and engage in hands -on activities. Several teams enriched the education of children n their teams through "independent study ". This irocess, once reserved for the gifted child, was mplemented widely at grades three and four. ;hildren worked through a process that used esource books, correspondence, interviews, videos ind role - playing to capture a knowledge of their opics. The exceptional work of children and teachers vas displayed at evening presentations and before tchool breakfasts. The quality of the students' oral oesentations was impressive. The integrative element of the fine and performing its program took major strides in language arts and he content areas. Teachers worked with the music specialists to transform fables, fairy tales, and works )f literature into plays and skits written by children. the art specialists were frequently seen working with students in developing sets and costumes for their productions. Most impressive was the development of an integrative unit on Greek, Roman, and Egyptian civilizations. That unitwas a grass roots curriculum development project by one fourth grade teacher and the music and art department. The culminating activitywas a visit to the Museum of Fine Arts with children conducting an inquiry study of the artifacts on display. During the school year, it was determined that the Robinson School administration would assume both curriculum and supervisory responsibilities for grade 5. Planning meetings with fifth grade teachers were highly productive and resulted in the development of a" document that outlined the organizational structure of the fifth grade and curriculum expectations. Over the summer four new fifth grade teachers were hired and trained. At present, there is a well defined curriculum being implemented. Administration is looking forward to a strong teaming effort being made by all teachers involved. The change of programming at the fifth grade also necessitated a redefining of the remedial reading program. Meetings were held with both remedial readinn teachers that resulted in the development of a program that transitions children from a supplanted to supplementary program. The position of Curriculum Enrichment Teacher was redefined and entitled, Curriculum Specialist /Enrichment Teacher. The new position places a heavier emphasis on curriculum and instruction within the regular classroom. Some of the responsibilities of the position include supervision of teachers, mentoring new teachers, conducting workshops in language arts, facilitating subject area support groups, teacher evaluation, and developing and implementing educational plans for gifted students. The three day Cape Cod Environmental Program in Brewster was implemented for the second straight year. We increased our involvement of classroom teachers from three to four. The three day environmental study demonstrated a strong integration of science and the arts. Studies included tide pools, the white cedar swamp, salt ponds, and the salt marsh. The program was another huge success. Early discussions have occurred among administrators, teachers, and central office on the educational specifications for the Jordan /Jackson Elementary School Complex. Tasks and timelines have been brainstormed and were approved in October by School Committee. Teachers met with administrators to discuss staff composition, organizational structures, and student assignments. A final timeline has been completed and approved by the School Committee. The New England Association of Schools and Colleges accreditation process was initiated. The process that was implemented and the meetings attended proved to be valuable. Teachers on the steering committee found their new leadership role to be rewarding and challenging and came to realize the meaning and intent of "teacher empowerment'. All those involved in the process came to understand the value of reflection and self evaluation. Adecision was reached by the Steering Committee to delay the process so they could effectively deal with new initiatives on curriculum development and formation of the educational specifications for the Jordan /Jackson Elementary School Complex. -25- Accomplishments included the following: • Selected Steering Committee • Developed time line for self- study. • Designed parent, teacher, community, and student surveys. • Initiated work on the School and Community Profile. • Selected Philosophy and Goals Committee. • Developed, revised, and received School Committee approval of Philosophy and Goals Statement. • Designed Learning Area Preference Survey. • Assigned teachers to Learning Areas. • Communicated to staff through meetings and written documents the intent of the self- study. A new procedure for the registering and orienting of new parents and children to the school was completed after several meetings with administration, school adjustment counselors, the nurse, and secretaries. The completed document is one that collects necessary data and at the same time provides the parents and their children with an overview of the school and the school system. Parents enrolling their children have commented on the warm reception they have received and the time administrators and secretaries have given them. The completed document was discussed and revised at Management Team. Teachers and administration participated in bi- monthly meetings on "whole language" to share ideas and experiences. One presentation by teachers included a presentation of the value of conceptual maps, story maps, and character plot charts and graphs for literary analysis. Atthe kindergarten level, a teacher demonstrated a whole language lesson that incorporated music and showed the connections of concepts and process to other grade levels. Teachers at grade four continued implementation of a self- contained organizational structure thatwas started in September of 1990. Teachers collaborated to learn new subject areas. Workshops in math, science, reading, and writing process were conducted to assist in the transition process. The Robinson After School Program was extended to sessions in both the fall and spring and increased from five to six sessions each. The academic strand to the program was strengthened with the addition of a unit on the microscope. Staff and administrators formed the Climate Committee to assess and improve the school climate. Membership included most professional and non professional groups in the school. The Climate Committee met monthly at first until a firm assessment was made of the present school climate and then outlined the conditions necessary for a positive change. Following that stage, the committee met on a bi- monthly basis to monitor the climate and intervene when necessary. The committee also planned several social events at the school to bring staff together. In summary, our year was filled with accomplishments and new initiatives. We have been able to maintain the positive changes while embarking on new ventures. Park Row and Roland Green Elementary Schools The goal at both schools has been to establish an atmosphere where children will feel secure and happy. Our belief is that in an atmosphere like that, -2a- children will have the maximum in learning opportunities. We recognize the need for mastery of basic skills as the primary responsibility of elementary schools. We also accept responsibilityfor providing experiences for all students with computers, curriculum enrichment and the arts. Listed below are some of the major' accomplishments which occurred during the new 1991 calendar year: • Continued the implementation of the Assertive Discipline Program. Students and classes demonstrating good citizenship receive recognition for their efforts. • An after - school program was started in the spring and has proven to be very successful. Courses were conducted at both schools. This fall all programs were conducted at Park Row with Roland Green students bussed to Park Row. A full program of offerings is planned for early spring of 1992. A high percentage of students from both schools have participated in and enjoyed these activities. • Students from both schools enjoyed the visit of Star Lab, the traveling Planetarium from the Boston Museum of Science. • Third graders from both schools traveled to Boston to see the Boston Ballet's performance of The Nutcracker. • This being the final year for the Park Row and Roland Green Schools, parents and teachers are collaborating to make it a special oneforthe students. Special commemorative events are planned on a monthly basis. • Parent involvement at both schools is something we are very proud of. Parents have organized activities like the Sock -Hop, Freak Friday and the family picnic at Park Row. At Roland Green they have organized Enrichment Day and Field Day. Many parents volunteer in the classrooms on a regular basis. • Much is happening in curriculum development in the system. Many teachers in both schools have participated in curriculum review. New instructional strategies are being implemented in many areas of the curriculum. • Much emphasis is being placed on the integration of all Language Arts subject matter. Teachers are implementing the whole language approach to reading and in the writing process. Math instruction more and more involves the use of concrete "hands on" materials.

ARTICLE 61 To see if the Town will vote to raise and appropriate the sum of $46,000 for the Engineering and Construction costs to complete Van Gernert Drive to the subdivision standards required by the Town for street, or take any action in relation thereto: Background: This action is being pursued bythe homeownersof Van Gernert Drive. It is the result of inadequate bond assurance by the developer to the Town for completion of the street to subdivision standards. Six of the seven properties have been occupied since 1988. In 1990, the Planning Board initiated legal action against the developer and bond underwriter to recover the full costs for completing the remaining work required for street acceptance. This action offers potential for full recovery of these costs. It is in the best interest of the Town that Van Gernert Drive (Van Gernert Estates) be quickly brought to subdivision standards for the protection of the Dustin Wellfield and wetland protection area. Van Gernert Drive is the right of way to these well fields and also contains the water piping necessary to connect to the Town water supply system. The storm drainage leaching system which adjoins the well -field wetland could be adversely impacted due to the grade of the roadway and sloping contours of the adjoining properties if the street is not finished correctly and maintained properly. The homeowners are concerned about the risks associated with continuing delays to complete the required street finish work and further, that they do not have the specialized knowledge that is required to preserve proper conditions for the Town as a private way and should not be expected to assume such responsibilities.
