TOWN REPORT NEW HAMPSHIRE MILFORD, 2011 Brenda Lynch Senior Crossing Guard Leduc Willie Town Treasurer Memoriam In ~ - Town of Milford 2011 Annual Report ~ About the Cover ~ In 2011 the Town offices mourned the loss of two beloved coworkers who were not only close friends, but who were also icons in the community. Brenda Lynch - Brenda began her career with the Milford Police Department on October 13, 1987, as a Crossing Guard. During the next 23 years she became the backbone of the division and eventually became the Senior Crossing Guard. There are many words that could be used to describe Brenda such as loyal, dependable, kind, dedicated, caring, and professional. None of those words can really explain what Brenda was to the Police Department or the Town. She was someone we could depend on. She was always at her appointed crossing; she was always prepared, and first and foremost, she always had the best interest and safety of the children of Milford on her mind. Not only has the department lost a valuable and dedicated employee but our community has lost a treasure. There aren't too many children or adults that didn't know Brenda - even if they didn't know her name. Her passing leaves a huge void in the Police Department and in our hearts. She is - and will always be - missed. Willie Leduc - This past year Milford lost one of its most outstanding citizens, Wilfred Leduc, known to us all as "Willie." In 1981 Willie was elected Town Clerk and at that time that position also came with the appointment of Tax Collector, so until he retired in 1995 he wore two hats, and he wore them well. He also enjoyed working with elections so even after he retired from the Town Clerk/Tax Collector position he was summoned by his successors to continue assisting at the polls and later he was appointed Assistant Moderator. Willie always stayed till the very end of each Election Day which resulted in a 16 hour day - never with a single complaint. With this upcoming election year we will feel his absence with deep sadness and we will also miss his assistance as we tally the votes - Willie could add figures in his head like no other! Willie had a great sense of humor and he always had a joke or story to tell. Willie loved Milford and enjoyed staying in touch with Town affairs and because of that in 2004 he ran for Town Treasurer. Fortunately for everyone he won the election which gave Milford a truly dedicated watchdog and gave us the continued chance to see him it frequently and share his wit and wisdom. Willie was a very kind and humble man who loved his family; he would always talk about them with such pride. He was always there willing and able to help his family or anyone for that matter. Willie was one of a kind and he will always be remembered as a good friend to everyone who knew him. He was also our go to person if we needed to know something from "back in the day." Anyone who remembers "back in the day", will know that on Christmas Eve we could always count on him for his famous meatballs and cranberry juice for the Holiday Christmas Party. He is very much missed and will be for quite some time. It was a privilege to have known and worked with him and we are all the better for it. ~1 ~ - TABLE OF CONTENTS ~ About The Cover 1 Table Of Contents 2 Volunteer Application 3 Quick Reference Information 4 Elected Officials, Department Heads, Boards, Commissions, Committees, & Volunteers 5 Board of Selectmen's Report 12 Department Reports: Ambulance Service 14 Assessing 18 Community Development - Building, Economic Development, Health, Planning, & Zoning ..20 Community Media 29 Emergency Management 31 Fire 32 Police 35 Public Works 42 Recreation 47 Tax Collector (MS-61 and Tax Rate Calculation) 51 Town Clerk 56 Wadleigh Memorial Library 57 Water Utilities 67 Welfare 74 Reports Of Boards, Commissions, & Committees: Conservation Commission 76 Economic Development Advisory Committee 79 Heritage Commission 81 Joint Services Study Committee 82 Planning Board 89 West Milford Tax Increment Finance District Advisory Board 91 Zoning Board of Adjustment 93 Reports Of Other Organizations: Downtown Ongoing Improvement Team (DO-IT) 94 Great Pumpkin Festival 96 Milford Area Communications Center (MACC Base) 98 Nashua Regional Planning Commission (NRPC) 99 Notable Mentions: Years Of Service 104 Departures 105 In Memoriam 107 Annual Town Financial Report (MS-5) 108 Independent Auditor's Report 126 Treasurer's Report 128 Trustees of the Trust Funds Report (MS-9 & MS-10) 129 Excerpts from the 217th Town Meeting Minutes in 2010 139 Vital Statistics - Births, Marriages, & Deaths 161 2012 Voter Information (On Colored Paper) - 2012 Town Voting Information 177 2012 Voter Information (On Colored Paper) -2011 Tax Rate Analysis 178 2012 Voter Information (On Colored Paper) -2012 Proposed Budget & Estimated Tax Rate 179 2012 Voter Information (On Colored Paper) - 2012-2017 Capital Improvements Plan 180 2012 Voter Information (On Colored Paper) - 2012 Amended Town Meeting Warrant 205 2012 Voter Information (On Colored Paper) - 2012 Budget (MS-6) & Default Budget (MS-DT) 219 Volunteer Application 231 Quick Reference Information 232 ~2~ - VOLUNTEER APPLICATION - NAME: ADDRESS: TELEPHONE NUMBER: «^ EMAIL ADDRESS: ,) In order to make my contribution to the planning, development, and well-being of the Town of Milford, am willing to volunteer to serve on/with the following I Boards, Committees, Commission or Departments.
