Although they are no longer with us in body, the contributions they have made will keep them with us in spirit. HERBERT YEATON (2000) JOSEPH W. COOPER GLADYS M. WILKENS SELECTMEN'S REPORT 2001 has been a year of continued change and improvement for Hillsborough. In March the Board thanked Bob Charron for his many years ofservice and welcomed Gary Lamothe as its new selectman. A beautifully reconstructed Butler Park was rededicated and is a reminder ofwhat we can do working together to be a positive force in our community. The Butler Committee and all those who assisted should be proud of their accomplishments. The rebuilding of the park used many volunteers, A including the Highway Department. special thanks to the Water Department for the hookup for the fountain. At the 2001 annual Town Meeting we approved the purchase ofthe Old Fire Station and with the help anddedicationofthe HillsboroughHeritage Museumvolunteers, the building has begun to regain some of its earlier luster and charm. Together, these facilities can become a focal point for future improvements by private property owners. The By-Pass project now looks like a highway and the bridges and We detours for the local roads are essentially complete. look forward to its We completion in mid 2002. also want to thank one ofthe contractors, H.E. SargentofStillwater, Maine, fortheirassistance inproviding surplusmaterial for a base cover for the landfill, saving us thousands ofdollars. Although it was amutuallybeneficial endeavor, theirexpertise and attentionto detail was greatly appreciated. The stone arch bridge on the 2nd New Hampshire Turnpike, near the junction ofBarden Hill Road, was finally completed in late October. As of the writing ofthis report we have only had to pay for the granite curbing. The Department ofTransportation has told us that we will be well under the DOT estimated cost, but they have not yet sent us an invoice. The bridge maintenance teamthat worked onthe bridge should be commended fordoing an excellent job. They worked very well with our Highway Department, which also provided them some assistance when requested. The DOT crew We also helped with a repair on another bridge. also thank Steven and Samantha Livingston for allowing the use of their property on Barden Hill Road for a staging location and for access to the bridge during the repair. For those who witnessed this work, the removal of the roadbed allowed for a fascinating view ofthe un-mortared stone arch. This project has also led to all the stone arch bridges in Hillsborough being nominated as National Historic Engineering Landmarks. We urge anyone who has not taken the time to see our bridges to do so. As in other years, many people have participated in improving the A quality of life in our town. quick view of the Youth Services director's report reveals a long list ofpeople who care about our youth. There are many that go unnamed, such as volunteer coaches, people who pick up roadside litter, school volunteers and countless others. In the 2002 warrant there is an article that seeks to fund two full-time positions for Hillsboro Rescue and the Fire Department. The level ofactivity for Hillsboro Rescue has gone beyond the ability ofour volunteers to keep pace, especially during the day when most ofthe members are at work. This article does not replace the volunteers, but is to support and assist them in carrying out their mission. As we look to the completion ofthe State highway project and the myriad ofother changes coming in 2002, and beyond, we hope that the spirit ofparticipation in the life ofourtown and schools will continue to enrich the lives ofall ofus.
