Jennifer S. Wood
April 21, 1952 — January 5, 2011
Jenny, a longtime resident of Truro, was a botanist for The Cape Cod National
Seashore before becoming the Orleans Conservation Administrator in 1998. She was a
soft-spoken woman whose depth of knowledge and concern for environmental issues
benefited us all here in Orleans.
In 2004, The Orleans Improvement Association presented Jenny with its annual award
in recognition of her dedication to the preservation of the environment and the beauty of
Orleans. Meadow on the Cove and Window on the Cove have become wildflower
gardens of her planning.
In an office file, there are many notes of appreciation from grateful townspeople for her
thoughtful help as well as letters of thanks from fellow professionals. She provided
assistance to members of the Botanical Club of Cape Cod and the Islands to identify a
historic and extant species of bladderwort on the lower Cape.
Jenny was a member of the Massachusetts Association of Conservation
Commissioners and the New England Wildflower Society.
Diplomacy, empathy, vision and respect for others as well as respect for our natural
resources made her a dedicated professional.

BOARD OF SELECTMEN AND TOWN ADMINISTRATOR
In 2011, the Board of Selectmen and Town Administrator continued their efforts to keep
the public informed on issues that were before the Town, and the Board's open door
policy ensured the public was welcome at any hearings and meetings.
Through the combined efforts of the Board and Town Administrator, a number of
projects and initiatives were completed and many of the actions that were listed as part
of their annual goals were achieved.
•Adopted the new Municipal Health Insurance Reform Act provisions that will enable
the Town to save $250,000 in FY13.
•Establishment of two Targeted Stabilization Funds for annual Water Quality Drainage
Improvements and Pavement Management Program projects that will be funded on
a pay as you go basis instead of through bonding which will help reduce the Town's
debt burden.
• Initiated a Technical Review and Cost Analysis Study of the Town's Draft
Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan utilizing the services of an outside
engineering consultant to evaluate both centralized and decentralized alternatives.
•A Town Buildings and Facilities Master Plan which included an architectural and
engineering assessment of the existing conditions of seven Town buildings and
developed a prioritized ten year maintenance schedule along with the annual
funding requirements to extend the useful life of these facilities.
•Revised Committee Handbook and setup resource library on the Town's website.
•Replaced boat launch ramp at River Road and floating docks at Rock Harbor.
•Water quality drainage remediation project on Locust Road.
•A comprehensive survey and review of Town fees for consistency with other towns
and effectiveness in funding program costs.
As we move forward, we will continue to ensure that the residents and visitors of
Orleans receive prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable customer service, while
retaining cost efficiency as a priority. We will strive in these tough economic times to
maintain the core services that our residents expect while considering new initiatives
that improve current practices.
The Selectmen and Town Administrator wish to thank the many citizens who have
provided significant volunteer service to the Town. Without them, Orleans could not
function as well as we do. And last, but certainly not least, the Board of Selectmen
appreciates and thanks our dedicated employees for their hard work and
professionalism which makes Orleans such a special place to live and visit.
Respectfully submitted,
Margie Fulcher, Chairwoman John F. Kelly
Board of Selectmen Town Administrator

TOWN CLERK
The Clerk's office posts meetings and schedules meeting rooms for Town boards,
committees and commissions; on our official posting board and on the town's website.
Located "front and center' in the main entrance lobby, we are frequently busy greeting,
assisting and directing the public.
In addition to our routine "public" activities of registering voters, conducting Town
meetings and elections, selling clamming permits, issuing dog licenses, registering and
certifying birth, marriage and death records, issuing business certificates, raffle permits
and gas storage tank permits and serving as the switchboard and information center for
Town government, we also work behind the scenes in cataloging and preserving the
ongoing and historical records of the Town.
Changes to the State's Open Meeting Laws and to the Conflict of Interest Laws added
additional responsibilities to the Town Clerk's staff including new procedures as to how
meetings are posted as well as monitoring staff and committee compliance.
The Annual and Special Town Meetings and Town Election were in May with an
additional Special Town Meeting and Election in October. I would like to extend a very
big "thank you" to all the Election Workers and the Board of Registrars for their
outstanding work in assisting me and our voters.
A special thank you to my assistant, Kelly Darling for all her hard work and support this
year.

Comprehensive Plan:
This will be a very brief update on the Planning Department's progress implementing
The Orleans Comprehensive Plan over the past year. The plan contains more than 180
action items, of which 104 have been fully completed, and progress has was made on
another 60.
The three most noteworthy initiatives are:
1) Village Center Improvement — The Planning Board is working closely with the business
community to improve the appearance and function of the Village Center. We thank
the many residents who participated in the village center market survey last summer,
which produced dozens of recommended action steps. To prioritize among that many
recommendations, we formed six committees, comprised of volunteer residents and
business people. Going forward, we will continue to partner with a number of
interested parties (including the Chamber of Commerce and the Orleans
Improvement
Association) to make the Village Center safer, more attractive and more pedestrian
friendly.
2) Wastewater Management — In the interest of protecting our natural environment, the
Town has invested many hours studying the best way to address our wastewater
51
management needs. The result of this effort is the Comprehensive Wastewater
Management Plan which has now received approval from the necessary State
agencies and is currently under review by the Cape Cod Commission. Tonight voters
will have an opportunity to support the Town's continued progress on this front.
3)Traffic Safetv and Conaestion — The dangerous intersection of Routes 6A & 28 and
Canal Road is being redesigned by the State Dept. of Transportation, and we expect
construction to begin next year.
On behalf of my fellow Planning Board members, we thank you for this opportunity to
serve our Town.

ELEMENTARY SCHOOL REPLACE COMMUNITY PLAYGROUND
This project includes the removal and replacement of the current structure
focusing on overall child safety and ADA compliance. The Orleans Community
Playground was constructed in 1987 by Robert Leathers and Associates. Its location
behind the school allows for the children to use it extensively during recess times and
the public frequently uses the playground over the summer and on weekends when
school is not in session. Makeshift repairs have taken place on site for a temporary
fix during most recent years. The current estimate to replace the structure is
$350,000. Of this amount, it is proposed that $100,000 be offset by fund raising efforts.
A Playground Committee has been formed and the School Council has begun
compilation of fundraising ideas that would reach out into the community.

ENDING BALANCE OF RESERVES 124,868 307,644
Project 1: Sea Call Farm Pasture Rehabilitation
Applicant: Sea Call Farm Supporters, Inc.
Amount: $ 16,775
Sea Call Farm Supporters, Inc. requests funds for rehabilitation of the pasture, a historic
element of Sea Call Farm as listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The
pasture is badly degraded, but if rehabilitated would add to the historic and recreational
value of the Farm. The buildings and orchard have been considerably restored in
recent years. The Committee recommends funding of the pasture rehabilitation.
Project 2: Preservation of Photographs and Documents
Applicant: Orleans Historical Society
Amount: $29,000
The Orleans Historical Society, the Town's largest repository of cultural artifacts, historic
photographs and archival records, seeks funding to continue the preservation,
digitization and storage of selected photographs and documents from its collections by
a professional archivist. The CPA has already provided funding for the first year of this
three-year project. The Committee recommends funding of the remainder of the project.
Project 3: Land and Septic Survey
Applicant: Orleans Historical Society
Amount: $20,000
62
The Orleans Historical Society requests funds to conduct a land and septic system
survey and legal research for the Meeting House Museum property at 3 River Rd. The
OHS needs additional space for storage, functions and office activities, and will review
options to better utilize the current site which has two buildings on it — the Meeting
House Museum and the Hurd Chapel. The CPC recommends funding for the survey.
Project 4: Digitization of the Cape Coddler
Applicant: Snow Library
Amount: $17,000
The Snow Library has asked for partial funding to create a digital record of the "Cape
Codder" from 1946 to the present. The contents of the newspaper would also be
indexed and available through the library website. The estimated cost of the entire
project is $64,898. The CPC recommends that $17,000 be appropriated for this project
as a match to the $17,000 being committed by the Snow Library Trustees.
Project 5: Open Space Pre-Acquisition Funds
Applicant: Open Space Committee
Amount: $24,000
The Open Space Committee requests funds for pre-acquisition costs for open space
purchases including appraisals, flexibility studies, legal fees, engineering surveys, grant
applications and all other costs incurred prior to a recommendation for action by Town
Meeting. The CPC is recommending $24,000, an amount sufficient to cover
approximately a two-year period for such costs.
Project 6: Putnam Farm Rehabilitation and Restoration
Applicant: Conservation Commission and Open Space Committee
Amount: $47,500
The Conservation Commission and Open Space Committee are requesting funds for
the rehabilitation and restoration of Putnam Farm, which has been determined by the
Historical Commission to be "significant to the history of the Town of Orleans". This site
is deteriorated and must be rehabilitated and restored to allow the return of agriculture
to this significant historical landscape. The CPC is recommending the transfer of
$47,500 from grant funds within the CP Fund Balance which have been reserved for
projects undertaken by the Open Space Committee.
Committee Expenses: Maximum Allowable $38,450; CP Committee Voted $10,000
The Community Preservation Act permits the CPC to allocate up to 5 percent of annual
revenues (surtax and state share) for operating and administrative expenses. For FY
2012, the 5% would be $38,450. However, due to reductions in state funding, the CPC
recommends that only $10,000 be used for this purpose. The Committee anticipates
using the funds for legal consultation, secretarial services, supplies, maintaining records
and, if funding permits, potential studies directed toward effectively realizing the Town's
possibilities in the areas of open space, community housing, and historic resources.
Unused funds at the end of the fiscal year revert to the fund balance for future projects.
Community Housing Reserve: CP Committee Voted a Total of $79,038
63
The Community Preservation Act requires that "not less than 10 percent of the annual
revenues" (estimated to be approximately $769,000 for FY 2012) be used for each of
the primary community preservation areas - open space, community housing and
historic resources. Since there were no community housing applications for FY 2012,
the CP Committee recommends that $76,900, or 10 percent of the estimated revenues,
be set aside for future housing purposes in order to adhere to this provision of the Act.
Moreover, the Committee recommends that an additional $2,138 be appropriated for
community housing reserves in order to "make-up" the difference between 10% of the
FY 2011 estimated revenues (amount appropriated for community housing in FY
2011) and 10% of the FY 2011 actual revenues (a greater amount). The total amount
for Community Housing Reserves is, thus, $79,038 ($76,900 + $2,138).
Historic Resources Reserves: CP Committee Voted $2,138
Since the FY 2011 actual annual revenues were more than the estimated annual
revenues and the amount appropriated for historic resources for FY2011 was based on
10% of the estimated revenues, the CP Committee is recommending that the difference
in calculations ($2,138) be placed in Historic Resources Reserves. (Simple Majority

MOTION: To accept and adopt Article 6 as printed in the warrant and that the sum of
Seven Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Five Hundred Two and 00/100 Dollars

PLANNING BOARD REPORT
The Planning Board held a public hearing on this article and several others on February
8, 2011. 15 people were in attendance. There were no public comments. The
Planning Board voted 5-0-0 to recommend approval of the article.
The Town has two locations where they permit banners to be hung over the road to
advertise certain events. Those locations are over Main Street and Eldredge Park Way.
Currently, the regulations only allow such banners for events that are "civic or cultural
and/or athletic events conducted by a non-profit entity." This language is limiting, and
does not allow banners for events unless they are by a non-profit. The proposal would
allow Town-sponsored events and other events that the Selectmen determine to provide
a public benefit, regardless of whether they are a non-profit entity. Crafts shows and art
shows are an example of positive community events that are not by non-profit agencies.
ACTION: Voted, voice vote carries unanimously.

MOTION: To accept and adopt Article 27 as printed in the warrant.
PLANNING BOARD REPORT
The Planning Board held a public hearing on this article and several others on February
8, 2011. 15 people were in attendance. There were no public comments. The
Planning Board voted 5-0-0 to recommend approval of the article.
The proposed amendment would update the references to the groundwater protection
districts in the town. There are presently 4 groundwater protection districts. They
include:
District 1 — 400 ft perimeter around public wells
District 2 — the theoretical "zone of contribution" to the public wells, approved by the
state DEP.
District 3 — "areas formerly part of a water resource district"
District 4 — all other areas of the town
This article proposes to delete district 3, "areas formerly part of a water resource
district", as it is a district that was created before groundwater movement and impacts
were modeled and understood. District 3 does not contribute to the public water supply.
78
It is proposed that District 3 be eliminated because it no longer serves a groundwater
protection purpose.
ACTION: Voted, voice vote carries unanimously.
ARTICLE 28. AMEND THE ZONING BYLAWS SECTION 164-13, SCHEDULE OF
USE REGULATIONS
To see if the Town will vote to amend the Orleans Zoning Bylaws by changing section
164-13 to read as follows:

use whether through new construction, addition, or change of use. Such special
permits are subject to §164-38 and §164-39.
Or to take any other action relative thereto. (2/3 vote required)
MOTION: I move this article be accepted and adopted as printed in the warrant.
PLANNING BOARD REPORT
The Planning Board held a public hearing on this article and several others on February
8, 2011. 15 people were in attendance. One positive comment was received. The
Planning Board voted 5-0-0 to recommend approval of the article.
This article proposes to clarify the allowance of farm stands, and to add health clubs
and museums to the use table.
79
Currently, the "display and sale from roadside stands or otherwise of natural products",
is permitted in the Town's business districts, RB, LB, GB, and VC. The use is not
allowed in the Res District.
There are some small roadside stands which commence in summertime in the
Residential District. Under zoning, they are either lawfully commenced nonconforming
uses, or are technically not permitted. Farm stands appear to be a positive thing in the
community, provided they are not so large that they bring excessive commercial activity
into a Residential District. Therefore, the Planning Board has proposed that a roadside
stand for products raised on the premises be permitted in all zoning districts. They must
be less than 100 s.f. in area. If larger, the stand is regulated by existing limitations and
is not allowed in the Res. District.
Health club and fitness center are not currently listed in the use table. They have been
regulated as a "place of amusement" in the past, but should be classified in the table so
that there is a consistency in the way they are regulated.
Museum is also added to the table, and would be permitted in any business district.
ACTION: Voted, voice vote carries unanimously.

ARTICLE 34. RESOLUTION —ALLOW CONGRESS TO REVOKE CONDITIONS OF
CORPORATE AND UNION CAMPAIGN FUNDING — BY PETITION
To see if the Town will vote to pass the following resolution:
81
We, the voters of the Orleans Town Meeting, affirm our belief that the First Amendment
to the United States Constitution was designed to protect the free speech rights of
people, not corporations.
We believe that the United States Supreme Court's ruling in Citizens United v. FEC,
which allows corporations and unions to pay advocacy groups unlimited funds to
influence elections, threatens democracy by allowing corporations to cause the election
of candidates who will serve themselves, not ordinary citizens.
The people of the United States through their legislators have previously amended the
Constitution to regulate elections and federal officeholding nine times.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT WE, THE VOTERS OF THE ORLEANS
TOWN MEETING, CALL UPON THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS TO PASS AND
SEND TO THE STATES FOR RATIFICATION A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO
RESTORE THE FIRST AMENDMENT AND FAIR ELECTIONS TO THE PEOPLE, AND
FURTHER, WE CALL UPON THE MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL COURT TO PASS
ONE OR MORE RESOLUTIONS ASKING THOSE ACTIONS.
We ask Orleans officials to send a copy of this resolution to the state and federal
representatives and senators serving Orleans, and to the Governor of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the President of the United States. (By Petition)
(Simple Majority Vote Required)
MOTION: To accept and adopt Article 34 as printed in the warrant.
MOTION: To move the question.
ACTION: On the motion to move the question, voted, voice vote carries by the
necessary 4/5 vote.
ACTION: On the main motion, standing vote, YES = 105, NO = 40, motion passes.
ARTICLE 35. FUND WASTEWATER TREATMENT ALTERNATIVES STUDY— BY
PETITION
To see if the Town will vote to raise and appropriate, borrow and/or transfer from
available funds the sum of $150,000 for the purpose of conducting a comparison cost
study of the Orleans CWMP centralized system and a decentralized alternative (septic
tank effluent) wastewater management system. The study shall be conducted as
follows:
OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study is to compare preliminary cost estimates for
the following two wastewater management scenarios:
Scenario #1: Develop Town-wide preliminary conceptual designs with capital,
operating and maintenance cost estimates for two alternatives to address nitrogen
issues in Orleans as outlined in the current CWMP core program.
ALTERNATIVE 1: The present CWMP concept, which uses conventional gravity
drain sewage collection (big pipe) and centralized treatment and disposal as
described in the CWMP core program.
ALTERNATIVE 2: Decentralized treatment and disposal systems employing
septic tank effluent (STE) collection (small pipe).
82
Scenario #2: Develop preliminary conceptual designs for the same two alternatives
listed in Scenario #1 with capital, operating and maintenance cost estimates for
wastewater collection, treatment and disposal to serve only the Phase 1 (Village Center)
area as defined in the current CWMP.
REQUIREMENTS:
1. The Alternative 1 designs (conventional centralized system) developed in
response to the Town-wide and Phase 1 (Village Center) scenarios shall be
developed by an environmental engineering firm with demonstrated experience
in centralized wastewater management.
2. The Alternative 2 designs (decentralized system) developed in response to the
Town-wide and Phase 1 (Village Center) scenarios shall be developed by a
second environmental engineering firm, unaffiliated with the first firm, which has
demonstrated experience with the engineering design of decentralized
wastewater systems including septic tank effluent collection systems.
3. After acceptance by the Town, the four preliminary conceptual designs will be
provided to an independent Professional Cost Estimator, unaffiliated with the
engineering firms, who shall estimate the capital, operating and maintenance
costs for each design.
IMPLEMENTATION:
The entirety of the study described in this article shall be managed by a committee of
five (5) persons to be selected and appointed by the Board of Selectmen. None of the
committee members may be members of current Town or County committees, boards
or commissions at the time of Town Meeting approval of this study. Because the study
requires the committee to understand and evaluate detailed engineering solutions and
major project financial analysis, at least three of the committee members selected by
the Board of Selectmen shall hold bachelor level or higher degrees in chemical, civil,
environmental or mechanical engineering. In addition, at least one committee member
shall have educational qualification and professional experience in large project
financial analysis.
STUDY SCHEDULE AND COST: It is estimated that the study will cost $150,000. At
least three (3) months prior to any Town Meeting during which approval will be sought
for design and engineering funds for any wastewater remediation project, the full report
of the completed study, including supporting documentation, shall be made public. At
least one (1) month prior to such Town Meeting a Public Hearing shall be held to hear
public comments on the study, or take any other action thereto. (By Petition) (3/4 Vote
Required)
MOTION: To indefinitely postpone Article 35.
ACTION: Voted, voice vote carries unanimously.

existing and potential programs that could be employed in Orleans. A decision was
made, with subsequent concurrence by the Board of Selectmen, to reprogram funding
for the condominium purchase program, and use the money to enable a non-profit
housing agency to purchase land for an affordable housing development. At the end of
2011, the committee supported an application by Habitat for Humanity for funding from

homes in Orleans.
The John P. Hinckley, Jr. affordable housing project at 257 Route 6A is anticipated to

challenges for construction and end loan financing, and the committee has worked with
HECH to overcome these obstacles.

CABLE TV/MEDIA OPERATIONS
Orleans 18 has been operating live since August 1, 2007 and each year of operation we
have worked to better utilize technology to streamline our operations. In 2011
equipment was added to our recording system that now enables the dual taping of
meetings. This added feature allows us the flexibility to record established
boards/committee meetings that may have been bumped due to the need to broadcast
an important meeting. The Zoning Board of Appeals and Nauset Regional School
Committee meetings have also been added to the recording/rebroadcast roster thus
expanding the meeting coverage available to the Town of Orleans residents.
97
Orleans 18 is intended solely to provide information to Orleans citizens about issues,
services, programs, activities, and events involving or affecting local government and
the community.
Orleans 18 operates a full schedule of programming allowing citizens to have better
access to town government. Currently nine meetings are broadcast live and rebroadcast
throughout the week. In between programming, Orleans 18 broadcasts an Electronic
Bulletin Board that provides programming information, committee meeting dates and
times, calendar of events for the Council on Aging and Snow Library, and
announcements from town departments, committees and Orleans based civic groups.
In addition to the committees and boards that are televised on Orleans 18, there are
various programs that are shown. There are several programs from the Council on
Aging providing useful information to caregivers. Other programming includes special
meetings and events of interest to the citizens of Orleans.
The Media Operations Department looks forward to the continued growth of Orleans 18
to better serve and inform the citizens of Orleans.

CAPE COD WATER PROTECTION COLLABORATIVE
While long a priority of the County, wastewater management and the restoration of the
Cape's embayments took on greater importance than ever before in 2011. The year
was marked by an ever-growing realization of the imperative to move forward and to
begin serious work toward remediation. Equally strong was the growing fear that the
means to solve our shared wastewater problem is beyond the fiscal, managerial and
political capability of the individual towns. These competing realities have heightened
the level of frustration and concern that progress on wastewater will fall victim to a
stalemate that, at the end of the day, is in no one's best interests.
The County has grave concerns about the ability of towns to implement town-only
solutions. Regionalization of wastewater management offers the prospect of lower
overall cost, less infrastructure of any kind, management efficiency and lesser
undesirable growth impacts. The County is actively pursing regionalization efforts with
member towns and expects more activity in this area in the next year.
Cost concerns have manifested themselves in the form of persistent challenges to the
merits of the science underlying the municipal planning. The County has invested a lot
of time and appropriated $100,000 to cover the cost of convening a panel of
independent experts to review the Massachusetts Estuaries Project (MEP) Linked
Watershed Embayment Modeling Approach. The County selected an outstanding panel
of unbiased technical experts to conduct this review and report it's finding to the County.
The panel conducted its assessment November 14-16, 2011 on the Cape and filed an
oral report with the Cape Cod Water Protection Collaborative on the 16th.. The panel
filed its written final report on December 30, 2011. This panel fully endorsed the science
underlying the MEP reports and laid to rest the questions about the adequacy of the
science as a basis for municipal wastewater planning. The County is committed to using
the best science in the field and will use the review panels' findings to guide its efforts.
The November 16 meeting and the final report are available on the CCWPC web site.
County efforts will continue to focus on raising awareness of the imperative to address
our nitrogen problem, answering public questions about the science and looking for
innovative ways to use alternatives to conventional sewering like large scale
aquaculture, structural improvements to allow greater tidal flushing, and increasing the
natural attenuation capabilities of wetlands systems. Only if all thoughtful options are
discussed and woven together in the form of a complex and multi-dimensional strategy
will the Cape succeed on wastewater. The County remains committed to being at the
forefront of this debate now and in the years to come. The CCWPC meets monthly and
has positions open for Selectman representatives from every town and 2 from the
County.

CAPE LIGHT COMPACT
The Cape Light Compact was formed in 1997 following two years of study and votes of
town boards of selectmen and town council. It is organized through a formal
intergovernmental agreement signed by all 21 member towns and Barnstable and Dukes
counties. The purpose of the Cape Light Compact is to advance the interests of
consumers in a competitive electric supply market, including the promotion of energy
efficiency. Each participating municipality has a representative on the Compact Governing
Board, which sets policy and works with staff, technical and legal support to advance the
Cape Light Compact programs.
POWER SUPPLY
Throughout 2011, natural gas prices remained low and relatively stable due to an
abundant supply of the fuel. Since natural gas is the primary fuel used to generate
electricity in New England, energy prices also remained low throughout 2011. After
hitting a peak in 2008, the Compact reduced its rates in 2009, 2010, and again in 2011;
reducing rates six straight times over this three year time period. In 2012, the current
outlook is for supplies of natural gas to remain relatively stable but with a bias in price to
the upside. This bias towards higher prices is due to an anticipated increase in demand
for natural gas due to forecasts for a harsh winter in the northeast and a higher demand
for electricity. Higher natural gas prices typically result in higher electricity prices.
In 2011, the Cape Light Compact provided energy to residents and businesses in
accordance with a competitive electricity supply contract negotiated by the Compact
with ConEdison Solutions. As of December 2011, the Compact had 4,693 electric
accounts in the Town of Orleans on its energy supply.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
From January to November 2011, rebates and other efficiency incentive programs
provided to the Town of Orleans by the Compact totaled approximately $408,285 and
brought savings to 385 participants of$219,677 or about 1,098,386 kilowatt-hours of
energy saved for 2011.
Funding for the energy efficiency programs (i.e. energy audits for homes and
businesses, rebates on the purchase of energy efficient appliances and energy
education in our schools) comes from a monthly customer"energy conservation" charge
($0.0025 cents multiplied by the number of kilowatt hours used during the month) that
appears on each customer's electric bill.
Other Cape Light Compact Efforts Include:
• Cape Light Compact continues to support energy education to the schools in
town including Lighthouse Charter School and Orleans Elementary School
through teacher training, materials, and classroom visits.
• Over the course of its lifetime, the 2.04 kWh PV system as part of the "Solarize
Our Schools" program at the Orleans Elementary School produced over 13,245
kWh of electricity and avoided over 22,861 lbs. of CO2.
• 23 Low-Income homes were retrofitted for a reduction in energy usage and
increased comfort.
• 2 ENERGY STAR® qualified homes were built in the Town of Orleans.
102
• Twenty-three Orleans small business and municipal accounts took advantage of
numerous energy efficiency opportunities available to them. They received
incentives of$70,854.47 and realized energy savings of 256,025 kWh.

COMMUNITY PRESERVATION COMMITTEE
The Town of Orleans adopted the Community Preservation Act (CPA) in May 2005. The
Town receives funding for CPA activities from the 3% local surcharge on real estate
property taxes (surtax) and from a state match of up to 100% of the surtax revenues,
subject to the availability of state funding. CPA funds are to be spent on open space,
community housing, historic preservation and recreation projects which contribute
toward achieving the goals of the Committee's Preservation Plan and the Town's
Comprehensive Plan and which meet the legal requirements of the CPA.
The nine-member Orleans Community Preservation Committee (CPC), created through
state statue and local bylaw, implements the requirements of the CPA, administers the
project selection process and awards funds to eligible projects subject to Town Meeting
approval.
The Committee conducted its sixth full calendar year of business in 2011. Important
activities during the year were:
• As 2011 commenced, there were eight projects, in various stages of completion,
being monitored by the Committee to insure that they remained within budget
and approved scope and that satisfactory progress was being made towards
completion of the projects.
• At the May Annual Town Meeting, the CP Committee, after careful review,
interviews, and a public hearing, recommended three new projects and additional
funding for three ongoing projects. The specific projects were as follows:
1. Sea Call Farm Restoration (Phase V) — Pasture Rehabilitation
2. Orleans Historical Society Document/Photograph Preservation (Phase II)
3. Orleans Historical Society Property & Septic System Survey
4. Snow Library Cape Codder Digitization
5. Open Space Pre-Acquisition Funds (Phase II)
6. Putnam Farm Rehabilitation and Restoration
The Town Meeting followed the CPC recommendations and, through Article 6,
approved $530,051 to pay interest and principle on open space debt, $79,038 as
reserves for community housing, $2,138 as reserves for historic resources, $10,000 for
FY '12 Committee expenses and $154,275 for the six projects, resulting in a total CPA
Program Budget of$775,502. At the October Special Town Meeting, the Committee
also recommended the transfer of$54,000 in CP Open Space Grant funds to acquire a
conservation and watershed preservation restriction on Brewster property which is in
Zone II of contribution to Orleans wells.
• During 2011, two projects were completed and closed out financially.
• As 2012 commences, there are nine on-going projects (including three in several
phases of progress) which continue to be monitored by the Committee.
103
Although the state match under the CPA remains at much less than 100% of local
surtax revenues, the Community Preservation Committee remains committed to its
support, within the available funding, of projects that will preserve the character and
beauty of the Town of Orleans in the areas of open space, community housing, historic
preservation and recreation.

CONSERVATION COMMISSION
The Conservation Commission implements the Massachusetts Wetland Protection Act
and the Orleans Wetland Protection Bylaw. In the Town of Orleans, the Conservation
Commission reviews and approves applications for projects affecting any of the Town's
wetland resource areas and manages the Town's Conservation Areas.
Reviewing and Approving Wetland Projects
Any activity that alters a wetland resource area or the 100 foot buffer to the resource area,
including filling, construction, renovation, pruning, removing or planting vegetation, must
be filed with the Conservation Commission prior to initiation. Wetland resource areas
encompass wetland vegetation, coastal banks, dunes, Land Subject to Coastal Storm
Flowage and Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) among others. For minor
alterations, such as brush or tree pruning or small construction projects more than 50 feet
from a resource area, a brief Administrative Review form can be submitted. Larger
projects require, at minimum, notification of abutters within 100 feet of the lot line of the
property, a plot plan with a limit of work, and precise delineation of the wetland boundaries.
In 2011, the Conservation Commission heard 43 Notices of Intent, Amended Orders, and
Requests for Determination, 32 Certificates of Compliance, and completed 190
Administrative Reviews.
Management of Open Space Areas
The Orleans Conservation Commission is responsible for the management of the Town's
Conservation Areas. Most of these areas are available to the public and offer passive
recreational opportunities with trails and scenic views. In 2011, the Conservation
Commission continued to support the Parks Department's efforts to improve and manage
our conservation areas.
Meeting Schedule
The Conservation Commission meets in the mornings the first four Tuesdays of every
month. New hearings are advertised the first and third weeks of the month.

COUNCIL ON AGING
The Orleans Council on Aging (COA) functions as a human service organization to
enhance the quality of life for all residents of Orleans who are at least 60 years old. The
COA provides assistance, information on available resources, health services, referrals
104
to community agencies, programs and recreational activities. There is a particular
emphasis on promoting healthy aging and full participation by all.
A review of the COA newsletter "Tidings" offers a variety of programs that provide
assistance to all seniors: blood pressure clinics, CPR-AED classes, foot care, Fuel
Assistance, counseling with licensed social workers, home health aide referrals, legal
assistance, tax return preparation assistance (AARP), medical equipment loans, and
Medicare information (S.H.I.N.E.).
Support groups include Alzheimer's Caregivers, Bereavement, Chicken Soup for the
Caregiver, C.O.P.D., Neuropathy, Parkinson's and Sight Loss Support Groups. In 2011
the Chicken Soup program was the recipient of a $6,500 grant from the Fund for Cape
Elderly of the Cape Cod Foundation.
The Day Center continues to provide a Supportive Day Program that endeavors to
focus on a participant's capabilities, experience, interests and personality so that his or
her potential is fully maximized through activities, conversation and companionship, as
well to provide a respite for caregivers.
Activities at the Center include; Yoga, Zumba, T'ai Chi, Life Exercise and Sit and Be Fit;
Amateur Radio Club, Book Club, Bridge Lessons, Chess Players, COA Friends
sponsored Duplicate Bridge, Knitters Knittin', and the Friday Painters. A popular
community event is the monthly Cabaret, featuring talented guest performers and a
special menu prepared by COA chefs.
Continued financial support through the Friends of the COA, a Formula Grant from the
Executive Office of Elder Affairs, the Anslow Trust and COA Gift Accounts, the Moak
Scholarship Fund, the Travis Smith Trust account and other grants and donations
enable the Council on Aging to expand offerings to provide programs which will meet
the needs of all seniors in Orleans.
In 2011, long-time van driver Bob Bishop and custodian John Jennings passed away.
Their contributions and dedication will be remembered by both the staff and the
community. In December Elizabeth Smith retired after many years as Council on Aging
Director. The Town of Orleans extends its appreciation and gratitude to the entire COA
staff, who kept programs and operations running smoothly during the transition period.

CULTURAL COUNCIL
The Orleans Cultural Council received $4,478 in grant money from the Massachusetts
Cultural Council to award to individuals and organizations with projects in the arts,
humanities and interpretive sciences.
The 2011 grant recipients were: Massachusetts Audubon/Wellfleet Bay Wildlife
Sanctuary, Cape Cod Opera, Cape Museum of Art, Nauset Regional Middle School,
Alzheimer's Services of Cape Cod, Meeting House Chamber Music Festival, Eventide
Arts Festival and the Orleans Historical Society. Individual performers who were
105
acknowledged were Scott Jameson for his music and juggling program, Tara Murphy
for her African Dance and Drum Program, and Davis Bates for his multi-cultural
presentation.
March is National Student Art Month and the Cultural Council sponsored its annual
Student Art Show showcasing artwork from Nauset Regional High School, Nauset
Regional Middle School and the Lighthouse Charter School. The Cultural Council also
asked for submissions from students who are home schooled. More than 70 artworks
were displayed in various media including photography, oil, acrylic, watercolor,
monoprint, collage, and sculpture. An opening reception took place on Friday, March 11
and was attended by students, parents, faculty and town officials.
In May, the Council sponsored an open juried art show funded by the Margaret Fernald
Dole Fund. More than 80 artists from 12 Cape Cod towns submitted works that were
juried by Christine McCarthy, Executive Director, Provincetown Art Association and
Museum. McCarthy chose 44 artists for the month long show and awarded first place to
Barbara Melcher; second place Peg LoPresto; third place Maura Ghedini. Dale
Michaels Wade was awarded the MF Dole award. Margaret Dole was an artist who
spent summers in Nauset Heights. Upon her death, her family established a memorial
fund in her honor for juried art shows. The Kline Foundation has offered to fund the Dole
Show and other similar Cultural Council projects for the next five years.
The Cultural Council also awarded $400 to "Odd Fest," a free family music festival
which took place at the Odd Fellows Hall, Main Street, in September. The festival was
sponsored by the Orleans Odd Fellows, radio stations WOMR/WFMR and the First
Encounter Coffee House.
In August, the Cultural Council received $3870 in grant money to be awarded in 2012.
New members joined the Cultural Council in the fall. Joyce Aarons, Patricia Ares and
Jenny Avellar were appointed by the Board of Selectmen in November.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
(Formerly CIVIL DEFENSE)
I hope everyone realizes we have changed the decades old name of this department
from Civil Defense to a more up to date Emergency Management. This reflects a more
accurate description of our activities as we operate during weather, national and
security emergencies.
I am happy to report that after last year's hurricane Earl we were reimbursed 75% of our
expenditures. This was passed back to the departments having expended the monies
and had a sustaining effect at the fiscal year's end. At the end of our summer season
we had another such storm known as Irene. We used our normal ramp up of staff and
methods that have proved successful over the years and made it through the storm.
Again because this storm was a declared disaster we have applied for FEMA
reimbursement.
106
By way of explanation I want Orleans residents to understand our first priority during
these storms when power lines are down is the cutting and clearing of the roadways so
that our emergency vehicles can respond where needed. Power restoration is
requested as soon as storms are done; patience is needed as the power companies do
not fall under the direction of the Emergency Manager's operations, I wish they did.
Chief Roy and I continue to attend and support the REPC. REPC is also fighting to
some changes to power companies operations in the future to better allow fire, police
and ambulances to be able to reach our citizens. We will also be seeking some minor
funding efforts to better notify and operate our town during the weather events that
appear from time to time and alter our daily lives.
Chief Roy and I want to thank our citizens for their patience, our employees for the
many long hours the work in these storms, and our Board of Selectmen for the
confidence shown in turning our town over to the Emergency Managers.
Respectfully submitted,
Chief William P. Quinn Jr., Orleans Emergency Management Director
FINANCE COMMITTEE
I am pleased to submit to Orleans citizens the annual report on the activities of the
Orleans Finance Committee for calendar year 2011. The Finance Committee,
comprised of nine members appointed by the Town Moderator, is charged under the
Orleans Town Charter with independently examining and analyzing the financial affairs
of the Town, including proposed budgets, the Capital Improvement Plan, and all other
proposals having financial impact.
In fulfillment of its obligations under the Charter, the Committee completed required
Fiscal Year 2012 budget reviews in meetings and consultations with Town officials; met
in joint sessions with the Board of Selectmen for public hearings on the Fiscal Year
2012 budget and Capital Plan and in a special joint session with the Board to review
with Nauset Regional School district and Orleans Elementary School officials their
respective Fiscal Year 2012 proposed budgets; and routinely sat in on meetings of
Town boards, committees, and departments whose actions have fiscal implications for
the Town. The Committee focused its activities leading up to and following the annual
budget review on improving its level of understanding of municipal finance practices and
the roles, responsibilities, and operations of Town Departments and key committees as
they impact on Town spending.
With both an Annual and fall Special Town Meeting held this year, the Committee spent
considerable time engaged in the deliberation of Warrant Articles that were brought
before Town voters for action. The Committee was guided in its review of, and actions
on, Annual and Special Town Meeting Articles by an overarching commitment to
pressing for long-term planning to position the Town to effectively manage increased
budgetary pressures. While some non-recurring increases in revenues and one-time
cost savings produced a healthy bottom-line at the close out of Fiscal Year 2011, sharp
declines in federal and state aid to local communities; the rising cost of debt service;
fringe benefit cost increases that exceed the inflation rate; and looming spending
requirements related to vital infrastructure improvements and the implementation of a
107
comprehensive wastewater management plan will continue to place extreme pressure
on the Town's operating and capital budgets into the future.
Economic constraints create the risk that the annual budget cycle will become an yearly
exercise in balancing revenues and expenditure. The need to contain costs when
resources are scarce should not outweigh importance of long-term strategic thinking
about spending priorities. The fiscal challenges of the future are likely to be significant.
To meet these challenges, the Finance Committee believes that the following must be
undertaken as priorities:
• Managing the debt burden, which is the Town's fastest growing expense by
carefully scrutinizing the long term impact of financing major capital expenditures,
such as land and equipment purchases, on the ability of the town to maintain its
critical infrastructure and economic health.
• Accelerating payments against the Town's unfunded liabilities for employee
pensions and retiree health care
• Analyzing the implications of demographic changes on services needs of Orleans
citizens as a foundation for evaluating services availability, adequacy, and
accessibility.
• Achieving long-term sustainability of our schools in the face of declining enrollment
and spiraling increases in expenses.
• Controlling expenses to stabilize the tax rate by exploring opportunities to
streamline and consolidate services; apply technology and innovative practices
to service delivery; and reduce costs through inter-municipal service sharing
agreements with neighboring communities.
These priorities will continue to guide and inform the Committee's deliberations when it
begins its review of the Town's Fiscal Year 2013 budget in mid-January 2011.

Gwen A. Holden Kelly, Chairman
FIRE AND RESCUE DEPARTMENT
2011 has proved to be another busy year for the staff at the fire station responding to
2360 calls.
This year Deputy Pike finished his and attended the Chief Fire Officers Management
program through the Mass Fire Academy and the Donahue Center at U-Mass Amherst.
This is a highly dedicated class that parallels the National Fire Academy model with
emphasis placed on Massachusetts problems and answers.
Many of you that we have transported to CCH did notice a change in our billing. Our
clerk of many years Deb Abbott retired last January. We chose Coastal Medical Billing
Company to deliver this task for us. We have found her staff to be friendly and most
courteous as I hope all of you have. We wish Debbie well in her retirement and that we
continue to enjoy our relationship with Coastal.
Again this year we were very lucky to receive an Assistance to Firefighters Grant in two
forms; first we were awarded monies to purchase a new Rescue Tool for extrication. We
had some money planned in the new pumper purchase so we took this grant and
upgraded our existing equipment to the new one hose style. Once again it places the
108
equipment we rely on to rescue you in the best of condition. Secondly we have been
concerned for many years in that when our 800 radio system goes down due to storm or
repairs we use a low band system that was in place when I joined the department in
1972. A regional Assistance to Firefighters grant for Brewster, Orleans, Eastham and
Wellfleet was awarded that netted the Orleans Fire over one hundred thousand dollars
in a new 400 backup radio system that allowed us 12 base station radios, a repeater on
one water tower, and over 60 portables. Kudos to Ross Klun and Tim Gula as our grant
authors.

In late August we hired Aaron Burns as the replacement for FF Mike Gould. Aaron was
a call firefighter with our department for a few years and was almost done with his
Paramedic program. Aaron is the son of Capt. Steve Burns from the Eastham Fire Dept.
My thanks to my staff for the additional calls they answer every week. 26.7 % of our
calls are multiple calls that require additional staff to man the next ambulance and
sometime even a third ambulance before the first call is complete. This takes dedication
by a talented group of individuals who protect our town day in and day out. In my mind
they are the best! For those whose lives have been touched by this team I'm sure you
agree.

FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION COMMITTEE
We are pleased to provide this annual message on behalf of the Orleans Fourth of July
Celebration Committee.
The 2011 Orleans Fourth of July Celebration activities began on Friday July 1, 2011
with a fabulous Fireworks display set off from Rock Harbor at dusk. The display,
presented by Atlas Pyrotechnics, was spectacular as was the spirit of those watching.
The Fireworks were again fullv funded by donations collected by The Friends of the
Fourth, a private organization that has raised funds to pay for the 4t" of July Fireworks
since 2004.
The 4t" of July Parade stepped off from Eldredge Park Way at 10:00 am Monday, July
4, 2011. This year's Parade had one of the biggest crowds ever and the weather was
fabulous. The theme of this year's parade was Celebrate America, A Place of
Wonders. Bailey Kavanaugh, a kindergartner at the Orleans Elementary School,
created this slogan that won 1St Prize in the Orleans Elementary School Parade Theme
Contest.
Our Grand Marshals this year were Jan Nickerson and Bill Snow, both long time
business owners, serving the needs of Orleans residents for many years. Mid-Cape
Home Centers and Snow's Home and Garden Center are their businesses respectively.
Both Jan and Bill enjoyed riding in the parade.
We had a new addition to the Parade this year, which we hope to continue. We included
the Citizen(s) of the Year. Ken and Gussie McKusick. Ken and Gussie have been
involved in serving the Town of Orleans and it's people for many years.
As always, there were many creative entrants in the Parade as well as some old
favorites. We had 65 parade entries including businesses, families, antique cars, and
non-profits. In addition, we had military, police, and fire marching units, dignitaries,
horses, and some fabulous bands. What a great turnout for both those in the Parade
and those watching.
We would like to thank all of the businesses that supported us with vehicles, drivers and
supplies. Your donations are crucial to our Parade's success. Also, many thanks for the
110
hard work of the Orleans Police, Fire, and Highway Departments. It is much
appreciated.
Funds Are Short The Committee appreciates that Town Meeting appropriated up to
$8000 to support the 2011 Parade. We continued this year with what we hope will be an
annual parade event - the 4t" of July Committee gathered volunteers to walk along with
the Parade, requesting donations. We also put a link on the Town's website for those
who want to send a monetary contribution, directed to the 4t" of July Gift Fund. We are
so pleased that the Parade collection, and the direct donations, now total $3,222.11.
Thank you. We will continue to have volunteers walking along with the Parade and
the link on the Town's website remains active.
We are looking forward to the 2012 Fourth of July celebration activities. The Fireworks
will be displayed over Rock Harbor, at dusk, on Monday, July 2, 2012 (rain date of
Friday, July 6th). The Parade will step off on Wednesday, July 4, 2012, at 10:OOam
from Eldredge Park Way.

HARBORMASTER & SHELLFISH DEPARTMENT
The Shellfish & Harbormaster Department is responsible for the oversight of virtually all
activities around the town's shoreline and waterways. The Department consists of three
full time employees and two seasonal patrol boat operators. Our work includes such
activities as: issuance of mooring permits, maintaining mooring waiting lists, issuance of
Rock Harbor dockage agreements, issuance of commercial shellfish licenses, natural
resource management and planning, private aquaculture management, maintenance of
town landings, dock and pier repair and construction, shellfish propagation, setting and
hauling of aids to navigation, vessel pump-out service, marine animal rescue, herring
run maintenance and restoration, marine rescue, emergency towing and enforcement of
all federal, state, and local laws, bylaws and regulations governing boating and shell-
fishing.
Specific projects for the year were as follows:
Shellfish Propagation Program. During 2011, our Department planted over 300,000
quahaugs and 250,000 oysters in the Nauset estuary. In addition, we continued our
work with the Barnstable County Cooperative Extension in the grow-out of over 200,000
juvenile oysters in the Pleasant Bay estuary.
Facility Improvements. As of the writing of this report, construction of a new boat launch
ramp at the River Road town landing is underway. We anticipate that the launch ramp
will be completed in early January, 2012 and ready for the upcoming season.
I would like to express my sincerest thanks to those residents and town employees who
so greatly assisted us during 2011. Specifically, I would like to thank Parks & Beaches
Superintendent Paul Fulcher, Fire Chief William Quinn, Deputy Fire Chief Tony Pike,
Police Chief Jeff Roy, Deputy Police Chief Scott MacDonald and Highway
Superintendent Mark Budnick and their staff for their constant help and support in our
effort to keep the shoreline and waterways of Orleans safe and sound. I would also like
111
to thank the members of the Shellfish and Waterways Advisory Committee for their
dedicated efforts at preserving the marine resources of the town. I wish to express as
always my gratitude to my assistants, Gardner Jamieson and Greg Normandy, for their
hard work and overall commendable performance in their respective positions.

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT
The Highway Department is responsible for the maintenance and improvement of
approximately 54 miles of roadway and roadsides, the repair and maintenance of
related stormwater drainage systems and the repair and maintenance of related
infrastructure. The Highway Department is also expected to manage Water Quality
Stormwater Improvement projects. The Department is also responsible for the repair
and maintenance of over 50 town vehicles, heavy equipment and tools. The Highway
Department also provides labor and/or equipment to support activities of the Parks
Department and the Harbormaster.
The major projects managed by the department in 2011 include the following:
Road Improvements:
• In the fall of 2011, the department paved portions of Portanimicut Road, Tar
Kiln Road, Bay Ridge Lane and Oak Ridge Lane. Extensive road patching
was done on Bakers Pond Road, Hinkle Road, Briar Springs Road, Barley
Neck Road, Brick Hill Road and Freeman's Lane.
Sidewalk Improvements:
112
•The deteriorated concrete curbing and asphalt sidewalk on Cove road was
removed and replaced with granite curbing and a new asphalt paved sidewalk
This project provided an attractive and safe corridor for pedestrians along
Cove Road.
Drainage:
• Improvements were made to drainage systems on Pochet Road, John
Kendrick Road, and Bay Ridge Lane.
Water Quality Improvements:
• Stormwater remediation improvements were made at direct stormwater outfalls
and nonpoint source stormwater outfalls at locations on Barley Neck Road,
Gilman Road, along Quanset Road, at the Quanset Road Landing, at the River
Road Landing and along Priscilla Road. These improvements are intended to
remediate road runoff to protect critical resource areas and were 75% funded by
the USDA Natural Resource Conservation Services (NRCS) the Cape Cod
Water Resources Restoration Project and the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) with the remaining costs being funded by the Town's
Water Quality Improvements Article. The total project cost was $501,655.
• Water Quality drainage improvements were made to drainage systems at four
locations on Locust Road to protect water quality in Cedar Pond from road
runoff.
• Stormwater drainage system improvements were installed at the Highway
Department facility on Bay Ridge Lane to remediate stormwater outfall from
the Highway facility yard that had been discharging into Ells Pond, a water
body adjacent to the facility property. This system is intended to collect
sediment ad retain greases and oils and leach the stormwater that formerly
discharged untreated into the adjacent water body.
Other Projects:
• The department has been tasked with ensuring the Town remains in compliance
with the Federal EPA NPDES Phase II stormwater discharge permit. With limited
staff it was challenging for the Department to make any progress on this
program.
• In 2011, the department continued data collection for the development of a GIS-
driven sign inventory program. This program will assist in management of our
sign replacements to insure that we maintain our signage for the safety of drivers
and for compliance with current and future regulations.
• The department continued to maintain and repair the town roadways and road
edge areas. Significant time and effort was spent addressing potholes, patching
areas of deteriorated pavement, repairing and improving berms and curbing,
roadside cutback and road side mowing.
113
• The department continued to maintain the town drainage system. This work
included cleaning of over 900 catch basins and leaching pits. The department
removed an estimated 283 tons of material from drainage structures. It should be
noted that the material generated from cleaning the drainage system is a
regulated waste material by the Department of Environmental Protection and its
disposal must be permitted. The Highway Department has secured a permit to
construct a vegetative berm at an area on the landfill site. The Highway
Department manages this material. The permit for the on-site stockpiling of the
catchbasin cleanings was scheduled to expire in October 2011. The Department
was granted approval from MADEP that will provide ten or more years of
disposal capacity for these materials.
• The Department swept up 1013 tons of sand and debris from the roadways and
parking lots in 2011. The handling of the street sweepings is also regulated by
the Department of Environmental Protection. The Highway Department has
secured a permit to construct "sight berms" with the street sweepings in locations
around the landfill cap.
• The Department continued to provide repair and maintenance services to the
town's vehicular and heavy equipment fleet. This involves over 50 vehicles and
pieces of heavy equipment, construction tools and various hand tools.
During winter operations the Highway Department is responsible for preventing and
addressing icing conditions and the clearing snow from roadways, town facility lots,
town parking lots, the Nauset Regional Middle School, the Orleans Elementary School
and seven miles of town owned and state owned sidewalks.
In 2011 the department responded to 15 recorded winter storm events. Many of these
storms were of long duration requiring extended hours for treating the roads.
Approximately 850 tons of salt and an equal amount of sand were used over the winter.
My sincere gratitude goes to all the department staff and the staff of the Parks
Department and Water Department for their dedication and support in responding to
storms throughout the winter.
In addition to the winter storm events, the Highway Department staff was front line
responders to Hurricane Irene and the Nor'easter that followed dealing with downed
trees and clearing trees and keeping the roads clear for emergency access during the
storm and the extensive clean-up after the storm events.
The Department acts as the Town's representative on the Cape Cod Joint Traffic
Committee and the Organization of SEMASS Communities. The Department also sits
on the Site Plan Review Committee and the Parking and Traffic Study Committee.
For most of 2011, one of our staff, Jacob Marshall, has again been away serving our
country with his National Guard unit in Afghanistan. We look forward to his return in the
spring of 2012.
114
Transfer Station:

In 2011, the Transfer Station also collected and processed: paint (estimated 850
gallons), waste oil (1,500 gallons), used oil filters (1 drum), gasoline (495 gallons), and
antifreeze (250 gallons).
The Transfer Station sponsored the Household Hazardous Waste Collection event
again in 2011. A summary of the materials collected during the event is available at the
Transfer Station or on the Town website.
The Transfer Station generated the following revenue in 2011 (not including sticker
sales): Gate Collections: $77,769, Batteries: $1222, Cardboard: $1563,
Metals: $15,539, Waste Oil: $390.
In 2011, the Department also continued to operate and maintain the Landfill Methane
Gas Collection system. The system consists of a series of wells and piping connected to
a flare system that burns the Methane gas being produced by the rubbish under the
Landfill Cap. A significant amount of time, effort and funding is required for this task.
115
The staff of the Transfer Station is available to discuss any questions or comments
concerning solid waste disposal issues.
Tree Department:
The Tree Department's main goal is to protect the Town's Urban Forest. The duties
and responsibilities associated with roadside trimming, tree planting and tree
maintenance are year-round tasks. The Department continues to focus on a proactive
approach to roadside cutback work to remove and regain control over unwanted
vegetation. This ensures a safe roadside and improves roadside maintenance
efficiency. Safety is the first priority but we also improve the forest by selecting the best
plants during this ongoing process.
Orleans has a number of mature American elm trees that have survived the Dutch Elm
disease. These trees require annual maintenance in the form of fungicide injections
and careful pruning to improve the long term survival of these heirloom trees. Tracking
existing and introduced trees requires a suitable long term management plan. The first
step is to complete the town-wide tree inventory. At present over 6000 trees have been
assessed and are available on the Orleans GIS for planning and mapping purposes. We
now have the means to utilize the database in the field and use inventory for integration
of a Vegetation Management Plan.
Other Notable accomplishments:
• The Town of Orleans received the Tree City USA Award from the
Massachusetts DCR Urban and Community Forestry Program. This is the 14th
consecutive year that we have received this prestigious award.
• Sponsored Arbor Day on May 9th at Uncle Harvey's Pond, Pochet Rd. We
were selected for Ameri-Corps annual weeklong event. They spent all season
contacting schools, non-profits, residents and local businesses for
contributions and volunteer time. This effort included 300 community
member/student volunteer service hours and 1040 Ameri-Corp service hours.
Their group also secured $20,000 in grant funds for plants and supplies.
• The department was awarded an Ameri-Corp intern two days a week for one
year. This is the 5th intern the Tree Department has accepted from Ameri-
Corp Cape Cod. This individual will continue to work on Tree Inventory.
• The Tree Department continued coordination with the Ameri-Corp volunteer
group program. This year's projects included environmental work at the
Orleans Water Shed, Orleans Elementary School, the Rail Trail and the
Putnam property.
• N'Star completed trimming circuits in South Orleans and the Rock Harbor area.
• Ameri-Corp Cape Cod has now worked over 10,000 hours with the Tree
Warden.
• Hurricane Irene and the Nor'easter that followed caused significant damage to
trees around town. The clean-up associated with storms is now complete.
I would like to extend my gratitude to the staff of these departments.

HISTORICAL COMMISSION
The Commission met on 3 occasions during the year to conduct business.
1. Three hearings were held in conformance with Chapter 106 of the Code of the Town
of Orleans: the Demolition of Historic Structures By-Law. The subjects and results of
these meetings were as follows:
January 26 -
• Continuation of a previous Public Hearing held on 12/17/2010 as a result of a
request from Mr. Charles Lamaitre as agent for Nancy and Alec Gambal to
demolish a structure at 10 Nichols Road. The previous hearing had been
recessed to allow Mr. Lamaitre time to obtain a letter from the owners delegating
him as their agent. This letter had been received by the OHC. The Commission
found the house to be a Preferably Preserved Historic Structure and the 12
month demolition delay was instituted.
March 30 -
•Hearing on a request by Spring Line Design as agents for Jill and Paul Morelli to
demolish a portion of a structure at 202 Rock Harbor Road. The portion of the
building for which demolition is requested is a small porch, not contemporaneous
with the main house. The Commission found the porch is not a Preferably
Preserved Historic Structure and may therefore be demolished.
October 19 -
•Hearing to discuss an application from Trevor Kurz of Kurzhaus Designs to
demolish a small portion of the house at 94 Main Street. The Commission found
that the existing portion to be demolished was not significant and would not
affect the character of the main Greek revival structure, and approved the
request.
2. The Commission provided guidance to the Community Preservation Committee
regarding planned work on historic structures and land; artifacts in Orleans; and the
purchase of historic farmland. All were to be funded through the Community
Preservation Act as follows:
January 26:
• Reaardina preservation of archives at the Orleans Historical Societv. CPC funds
were requested to preserve paper archives. The Commission supported the
request, noting that digital preservation was important with friable materials such
as papers.
• Reaardina a survev of land by the Orleans Historical Societv. The Commission
supported the work which will facilitate the upgrade of toilet facilities at the
landmark Meetinghouse, a National Register property.
• Reaardina the diaitization by Snow Library of the archives of The Cape Codder
newspaper. The Commission found that the request was an appropriate use of
Community Preservation Act funds, as the archives were important historic
materials.
• Reaardina fundina for the restoration of the pasture at Sea Call Farm. The
Commission supported the request, noting that the Farm is on the National
117
Register of Historic Places, and the open pasture is an important element of the
Farm, as history.
3. The Commission provided a determination regarding the use of Land Bank funds for
the acquisition of land:
March 30:
• Reaardina funds to acauire and restore the former Putnam Farm. The Commission
determined that the land purchase was an appropriate use of CPA preservation
funds because the Farm, and the nearby Jeremiah's Gutter are important in the
history of the Town of Orleans, and preserving the open space of the farm (the
Gutter is wetland and will not be developed) will preserve landscape character
consistent with its original state.
4. The Commission noted a problem with the Planning Board review process for
properties with Historic Structures:
January 26:
• The Planning Board approved a subdivision plan with a demising line that passes
through an historic home. The approval carries with it an almost certain
demolition of the historic home. The Commission found it difficult to understand
such an approval, and requested that the Planning Board confer with the OHC
whenever a proposal involving any historic structure or property is before them.
5. The Commission responded to a request from the Orleans Planning Board to update
the status of certain aspects of the Orleans Comprehensive Plan.
October 19:
• National Register Historic District, Main Street, East Orleans. The Commission
notified the Planning Board that it would take no further action on this matter
without the expressed cooperation of the Board of Selectmen. The NRHD was
considered by its sponsors to be the least onerous set of land controls available
as a means of preserving the character of this portion of Main Street.
Unfortunately, misinformation was disseminated throughout the community
regarding the nature of an NRHD and the district, and its promoters (The OHC
and the Orleans Historical society) were castigated. The Commission expressed
its displeasure with this outcome and indicated that no action will be forthcoming
without a political consensus.
• The Commission was asked to consider the promulgation of a bylaw to protect
Town Archaeological Resources. In discussions with Town Counsel it was
decided to defer this effort until next year.
6. The Commission considered 2 amendments to Chapter 106 of the Orleans Town
Law that covers the demolition of historic structures.
October 19:
• The Commission Chair met with the Zoning Task Force and with Town Counsel to
discuss and formulate a law to prevent the Demolition by Neglect of historic
structures. This law would not affect owner-occupied single family homes.
118
Ongoing:
• The commission continued to discuss the need for a time limit for instituting
demolition under the 12 month demolition delay for Preferably Preserved
Historic Structures. The possibility of the demolition must not run indefinitely but
must have a defined termination date.
Respectfully submitted,
James Hadley, Chairman
HOUSING AUTHORITY
The Orleans Housing Authority (OHA) owns and manages one hundred one-bedroom
rental apartments (Tonset Woods) for the elderly and persons with disabilities and
eleven units of family housing. We also own four one-bedroom apartments in East
Orleans which were purchased in June 2001 and will remain affordable in perpetuity.
The OHA also administers a state-funded Alternative Housing Rental Voucher Program
(AHVP) which provides rental assistance to people with disabilities and a state-funded
Massachusetts Rental Voucher Program (MRVP) which provides rental assistance to
individuals and families. We also subsidize the rent for two staffed residences for
persons with mental and physical disabilities. The OHA subsidizes the rent for six of
eight rooms through a federal HUD Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation grant at Canal
House which is a supportive residence for individuals in recovery from substance abuse.
In addition, we serve as property manager for the Eastham Housing Authority which
owns thirteen affordable rental apartments.
Finally, the Commissioners thank Tim Buhler, Executive Director; Allison Thomas,
Associate Director; Jay Gingras, Maintenance Supervisor; and Al Fearnley, Maintenance
Assistant for their hard work throughout a changing year
Respectfully submitted,
Richard Miller, Chairman & Timothy Buhler, Executive Director
HUMAN SERVICES COMMITTEE
The Human Services Committee reviews applications requesting town funding from non
profit human service organizations who serve only Orleans residents or who include
Orleans residents as their clients. There are many agencies that serve different needs
of Orleans residents. The committee is comprised of five members who review the
applications and verify their direct service to the residents of Orleans. They present their
recommendations to the Board of Selectmen. If approved by the Board the funding
requests are brought to the voters at the Annual Town Meeting for approval.
In 2011 these agencies received the following amounts:
Aids Support Group of Cape Cod $ 27000.00
Cape Cod Child Development $ 27500.00
Consumer Assistance Council $ 250.00
Elder Services of Cape Cod & Islands $ 27500.00
Gosnold $ 77500.00
Homeless Prevention Council $ 67030.00
119
Independence House, Inc. $ 4,500.00
Lower Cape Outreach Council $ 7,500.00
Orleans After School Program $15,000.00
Sight Loss Services $ 850.00
South Coast Legal Services $ 2.000.00
$50,630.00
These agencies have to supply information each quarter verifying Orleans residents in
their programs in order to receive funding as the year progresses.
Respectfully submitted,
Mary Lyttle, Chair
MARINE AND FRESH WATER QUALITY TASK FORCE
The Task Force and many citizen volunteers continue water quality monitoring in
Orleans marine embayments and freshwater lakes and ponds.
Summer sampling of our embayments continued at 18 locations on Cape Cod Bay,
Nauset estuary and the Orleans' portion of Pleasant Bay. Nitrogen from septic systems
continues to stress the marine environment resulting in unhealthy levels of algae growth
and low dissolved oxygen. The conditions in the terminal salt ponds continue to be
particularly unhealthy.
The freshwater lake and pond monitoring program continues with technical and
analytical support from Cape Cod National Seashore's lab in Truro and the PALS (Pond
and Lake Stewardship) project of the Cape Cod Commission and SMAST. Freshwater
pond samples were collected by volunteers from 18 Orleans ponds in spring and late
summer. Overall, freshwater pond water quality continues to decline. The Task Force
continues to look for solutions to the rapidly declining water quality in Boland, Cedar,
and Uncle Harvey's Ponds. The Task Force continues to work with the Highway Dept
to identify areas for potential stormwater remediation to reduce the incidence of
pollutants from road surfaces entering ponds and estuaries.
Cedar Pond showed stress and large amounts of floating aquatic plants and
macroalgae again this summer. A grant proposal to study the impact of recent changes
in salinity and future best management practices has been resubmitted. A cormorant
population study was undertaken. In addition, meetings have been held with NSTAR to
determine ways to reduce cormorant roosting and deposition of their feces in the pond.
The Task Force completed 14 months of water quality sampling of groundwater and
streams entering Namskaket Marsh to allow USGS to determine whether a plume from
Tri-Town is entering the marsh.
We thank the citizen volunteers who collected data on our ponds and estuaries this
year. Volunteers are urgently needed each summer to carry out this monitoring. Those
willing to walk along a beach or take samples from a boat, canoe or kayak are urgently
needed. Training is provided. Please leave your contact information with the Planning
Department at Town Hall. (508-240-3700 x435)

NAUSET REGIONAL SCHOOL COMMITTEE
WE'RE DOING WELL
Serving students in grades six through twelve from the towns of Brewster, Eastham,
Orleans and Wellfleet, the Nauset Regional School District has developed a well-earned
reputation for excellence. By every available measurement both the Middle School
located in Orleans, and the High School located in Eastham, perform among the best in
the Commonwealth, and Massachusetts always ranks in the top tier in rankings of the
states.
With a wide range of curricular offerings along with high quality programs in sports and
the arts, our schools have attracted large numbers of School Choice students from
other districts, ranked among the top in state test scores, employed the very best
teaching talent available, and prepared a large percentage of our graduates for college
success.
WHY WE'RE DOING WELL
Good schools happen when they are supported by the people of their community.
Nauset Regional has consistently received that support
The voters of our communities want a strong educational program for our children and
youth. This was clearly indicated by two rounds of voting in the past year in each of the
four towns. Our funds for the past few years had not increased at the rate of costs, and
the School Committee had reduced programs and staff to keep costs as low as
possible. This year the School Committee found there was no place left to make
reductions that would not be unacceptably harmful to the educational program, and
chose to ask voters for a budget override. The added funds were overwhelmingly
approved despite difficult economic times. Clearly, voters placed education at the top of
their priorities.
During this past year the State made available competitive "green" funds for energy
efficient roofs, boilers and windows. Since Nauset Regional High School has had little
upgrading since its construction in 1971, and roofs were beginning to leak, the School
Committee made application for some of those monies. Roofs, windows and doors were
examined by the state School Building Authority, and Nauset District was approved for a
grant of $2,423,070, which was 37.32% of the estimated total cost. The grant was
dependent upon voters approving the remainder of the funds. This was such an
important project, and the window of opportunity so small, the School Committee voted
to fund Special Town Meetings and the following Debt Exclusion votes at the polls, for
those towns not already planning fall votes. Again, voters in all four communities agreed
with this priority, passing all eight measures.
WE CONTINUE TO WORK TO IMPROVE
Joining with the four elementary school committees, we have begun a new look at
Strategic Planning for the future. Long-range planning is a multi-year process, and
citizens will be asked to participate as we continue to refine our Mission, Core Values
and Goals.
121
Thus far, the five school committees have defined five STRATEGIC PLAN THEMES:
• Student Learning
• School Culture and Climate
• Communications and Community Partnerships
• Leadership and Organizational Management
• Education Funding and Sustainability
Please consider participating when the Districts announce an opportunity for public
input.
Recognizing that all public schools have continuing problems with adequate funding, the
Nauset Regional School Committee has formed a committee to consider the issue
directly. The Sustainability Committee was created by invitations to the four Boards of
Selectmen and four Finance Committees to send representatives to participate along
with School Committee members and Administrators. The fledgling group is broadly
representative of the leadership of the towns, and members are determined to seek out
solutions to this complicated issue. Once again we are fortunate to live and work in
communities that value public education

OLD KING'S HIGHWAY REGIONAL HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMITTEE
The Old King's Highway Regional Historic District Committee, acting under
Massachusetts General Law Chapter 470, Acts of 1973, as amended by Chapter 278
and 845, Acts of 1975, reviews applications of residents of the district for
appropriateness.
The Committee met eleven times in 2011; there was no meeting in February because
no applications were submitted. Twelve Certificates of Exemption were accepted and
thirteen Certificates of Appropriateness were approved.
Mr. Will Joy submitted his resignation from the Committee in August. His was the only
seat on the Committee appointed by the Board of Selectmen. No replacement has yet
been named.
Respectfully submitted,
Paul Leach, Chairman
OPEN SPACE COMMITTEE
This year, the Open Space Committee continued to partner with its counterparts in the
Town of Brewster and was successful in its effort to protect an additional 3.04 acres of
land located in the Zone II of contribution to the Orleans well fields. At a Special Town
Meeting held on October 25th, residents voted overwhelmingly to proceed with the
acquisition of the Jackson property in Brewster and to support the additional protection
of 16.3 acres of land in our watershed. Through these joint efforts, the towns have now
protected 61 acres of land in our Zone II in Brewster at a cost to Orleans of $3,959 per
acre. This is a small price to pay to protect our water supply in perpetuity.
122
During 2011 the Committee continued to work closely with the Orleans Conservation
Trust. Late in the year, the Trust was able to protect an additional 1.72 acres of land in
the Pleasant Bay Area of Critical Environmental Concern by receiving and holding a
permanent Conservation Restriction.
At the annual town meeting, voters supported the transfer of state grant funds in the
amount of $47,500 to assist in the restoration and rehabilitation of the 13.86-acre
Putnam Farm on the Eastham town line. The Open Space Committee worked closely
with the Conservation Commission to develop a clear management plan for the multiple
open uses that will occupy this parcel, which was a requirement for the Town to receive
an additional grant of$187,500 from the State in late spring.
The Orleans Comprehensive Plan charges the Committee with the primary task of
helping to preserve 400 or more acres "using Land Bank and (Town) budget
appropriated funding, plus private funding." Since the formulation of that objective in
1999, over 320.4 acres of land have been protected. Thus 80% of the 20-year goal has
been achieved in the first 12 years. During the last 6 years, since the conversion from
Land Bank to the Community Preservation Act, over 120.4 acres of open space have
been preserved. The funding for these acquisitions has been made up of local funds,
state and federal grants and private contributions. The total amount expended has been
$7,365,320 or an average of $61,173 per acre. Town funds have amounted to
$2,422,520, grants have totaled $2,352,800 and the private fundraising effort has
totaled $2,590,000. Thus these lands have been protected in accordance with the 400-
acre goal in the Local Comprehensive Plan for a net cost to the Town of only $20,120
per acre.
Contributions have followed major efforts by the Orleans Conservation Trust and the
Friends of Pleasant Bay through private fund raising for land purchases and through
assistance to land owners to preserve land with Conservation Restrictions. Completing
the remaining 20% of the 400-acre goal is very important but will be considerably more
difficult now that Land Bank funding has been eliminated. It is clear that additional
conservation restrictions, private donations, joint public/private efforts and zoning
changes will play an increased role in achieving the 400 acre objective of the Plan.

Alan McClennen, Jr., Chairman

PARKS & BEACHES
2011 brought us warmer than usual weather from May through December. The year
was quiet as far as any significant storms. Erosion was less and we actually saw
accretion in the area of the public Beach north to the Nauset Inlet.
The sand bars off Nauset Beach have made this area a paradise for surfers, skim
boarders and bogey boarders. At low tide it is safer and warmer for small children to
frolic in the ocean waters.
The number of Off Road Vehicles registering to drive on Nauset Beach continues to
decline due to closures for threatened species as well as erosion issues on South
Beach. The number of ORV permits issued was down 1.5% as compared to 2010.
On the South end of Nauset Beach the trails were closed to ORV travel from June 3 to
July 7. From July 7th to July 19th the trails were open, but travel was restricted the
hours between 9 AM and 4:30 PM. On July 20th they were closed and reopened on July
31 st.The Town of Chatham area on South Beach did not reopen to vehicle travel until
August 20th.
On the North end of Nauset Beach 3/4 of a mile was closed to ORV travel. On June
22nd only a1/2 mile was closed. On July 22nd 1.2 miles were closed and the entire
North end was completely open to ORV travel on August 18th.
The number of Off Road Vehicle permits sold in 2011 as compared to 2006 was as
follows.
2011 2006
Orleans Resident Stickers 1819 2242
Chatham Resident Stickers 311 838
Non-Resident Over Sand Stickers 681 2490
Non-Resident Self Contained Stickers 52 216
Orleans Camp Owner/Licensees Stickers 36 35
Chatham Camp Owner Stickers 0 286
Total 2899 6107
The Town of Eastham is still making inquiries about the ownership of the last mile of
Nauset Spit. Some of the Eastham Selectmen would like to see the last mile of
Nauset Spit closed to ORV travel on a year round basis. If this were to happen, sales of
Resident ORV stickers would decline putting the ORV program in jeopardy
125
Four abutters on Aspinet Road hired a private security firm to block the use of Aspinet
Road for access and egress by ORV's to Nauset Spit. The Town is currently negotiating
with the abutters for use of the road during July and August. If this fails the Selectmen
could decide to submit an article for the 2012 May Town meeting to take the road by
Eminent Domain proceedings.
Monitoring and protection of Endangered, Threatened and Species of special concern
continued as required by the Order of Conditions to operate Nauset Beach from our

Sunny weather brought an increase in revenue for parking at both Nauset and Skaket
Beaches as well as increased revenue at the Concession Stands. Nauset Beach
Parking was full 21 days and Skaket Beach Parking Lot was full 42 days.
The Monday Night Concert Series at Nauset Beach and the five concerts that were
sponsored by a local bank continue to be a success.
We received extensions on permits that allow us to take sand from the Skaket Beach
flats to replenish Skaket Beach. These extensions are good through March of 2015. The
town will not be allowed to take sand off the flats after that time and will have to find a
different site for sand replenishment of Skaket Beach.
The Parks and Beaches Department is changing to an all organic program for
maintenance of our Town properties. No Pesticides or Herbicides will be used. If for
some reason a problem occurs and pesticides or Herbicides were needed to be used
then a public notice and hearing would be required. Cheryl Esty and Nate Sears have
completed training for organic based Land Management. Thank you both for showing
the initiative in helping the Town of Orleans become an Eco-friendly town.
I would like to thank all of the Town Departments for their help and cooperation over the
last year.
A special thanks to both the Orleans Fire and Orleans Police Departments.
To Chief Quinn and Deputy Chief Pike thank you for allowing your staff to backfill at
Nauset Beach when we were short of Lifeguard staff. As usual Firefighter Dearing did a
fabulous job in training Beach staff with CPR and AED. He also continued purchasing
our First Aid supplies saving money as well as servicing all of our AED and Oxygen
units. You were also kind enough to have Captain Burge install lights, Siren ETC. on our
new club car saving hundreds of dollars.
127
To Chief Roy, thank you for your department's quick response to traffic problems at the
Beaches, tending to the informational sign that is located on the Mid Cape Highway and
picking up our daily receipts at the Beaches and depositing the bags at the bank. Lt.
Diamond and Officer Tibbet's again did a fabulous job picking out and training the
summer officers that you sent for traffic control at Skaket and Nauset beach as well as
Callanans Pass.
This continued support by these two Departments has been going on for decades and
you will not find the type of cooperation in many other towns.
I would also like to thank the Parks & Beaches staff for all of their hard work and
dedication. Your accomplishments are appreciated by myself as well as the taxpayers
and visitors.
2011 also saw the passing of two former Parks and Beaches Employee's and one that
was a current employee.
Kendall Higgins worked for the Parks and Beaches for 35 years and was one of the first
Park Commissioners. He will be remembered most for the time he oversaw the
operation of Skaket Beach. Quick with a smile, a true gentlemen, loved children, great
tan and was a true ambassador for the Town of Orleans.
Bob Trumble worked for the Parks and beaches Department from 1995 - 2010 during
the summer on the Midnight to 8.00 AM shift at Nauset Beach. He always greeted the
early morning Beach goers with a smile and pleasant demeanor. He treated Beach
goers like he would want to be treated if he was vacationing.
Elliot Krach worked for the Parks and Beaches Department for seven years through the
2011 season as a lifeguard, the last Two as Assistant Head Lifeguard. Elliot tragically
lost his life in a car accident in Harwich at the age of 24. Elliot loved Lifeguarding at
Nauset Beach and had just been hired as a full time Teacher in Western Ma. Elliot had
a promising career ahead of him in Teaching and wanted to continue Lifeguarding at
Nauset Beach. He loved his dog, surfing at Nauset Beach as well as other lower Cape
Beaches and being with and around people. Elliot did many things to improve the
Lifeguarding services in Orleans. He will be deeply missed by his coworkers and friends
in Orleans and on Cape Cod.

PERSONNEL ADVISORY BOARD
The Personnel Advisory Board met three times in 2011. In January the Board
discussed proposed amendments to the Orleans Personnel Bylaw for consideration by
the voters at the May 9, 2012 Annual Town Meeting. Board members were also
advised of quorum guidelines regarding amendments to the Personnel bylaw, and were
advised that the employee recognition program was underway.
The Board voted to support amendments to the Personnel Bylaw to update language
regarding Board membership, remove positions no longer covered by the Bylaw, amend
language referring to exempt employees as defined by the Fair Labor Standards Act,
and clarify grievance procedures. The resulting Town Meeting article was a follow up
128
to the comprehensive update in 2010 and did not include employee cost of living
increases. Article 23 was passed unanimously by the Orleans voters.
At its meeting of June 1, 2011, the Board of Selectmen appointed Kevin Galligan to the
Personnel Advisory Board for a term ending in 2014. The Board welcomed Mr. Galligan
to its August 2 meeting and expressed their appreciation for his continuing interest in
public service. Members were provided with copies of the Personnel Bylaw Pay Plans
D and E, and the Seasonal Occupation list certified by the state for 2011. The Board
discussed ways in which they could assist with updating the current seasonal
classification/compensation plans. Issues specific to seasonal employees regarding
eligibility for unemployment benefits and overtime pay were also discussed.

PLANNING BOARD
In 2011, the Planning Board held sixteen meetings and approved one Preliminary
Subdivision Plan, and endorsed two Approval Not Required Plans. Two public
hearing(s) were held for the trimming or removal of trees, the requests were approved.
A new road known as Peace Lane was approved by the Planning Board. The Board
also provided advisory opinions to the Building Commissioner to aid in the interpretation
of the Zoning Bylaw.
The Planning Board utilized much of 2011 working on a master plan to improve the
Village Center District. The Board utilized the services of the consulting firm Finepoint
Associates to complete a Village Center Market Study at the end of 2010. In early
2011, a group of residents and business owners banded together to form the Orleans
Community Partnership (OCP). The new organization is dedicated to improving all
aspects of the Village Center and by extension the town as a whole. The OCP and the
Planning Board worked closely together in setting priorities for the more than 50 actions
recommended in the market study.
In the spring, the Board was awarded a grant from the Cape Cod Commission to
develop an overall streetscape plan for the Village Center. Landscape architects and
planners focused on developing a plan for visual and functional improvements to the
district. A design charette was held in May, attended by more than 50 residents and
town officials. Significant input was received from members of the OCP. The process
culminated in a presentation to the Board of Selectmen in December, at which the
streetscape concepts were approved.
The Planning Board developed 4 zoning amendments which were ultimately approved
by the Town Meeting. Sponsorship signs were permitted at Eldredge Park.
Regulations on banner signs at two approved locations were relaxed to allow them to
advertise for events of community benefit such as art shows. Groundwater protection
district regulations were updated, and a clarification on small farm stands was adopted.
Planning Board members also represent the Board by serving on other
boards/committees: John Fallender and Chip Bechtold on the Zoning Bylaw Task
129
Force; John Fallender on the Orleans Community Partnership board; Kenneth McKusick
on the Board of Water & Sewer Commissioners; and Steve Bornemeier on the
Community Preservation Committee.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT
In 2011, the Planning Department initiated and supported projects and objectives
consistent with the long-range vision for the town as expressed in the Orleans
Comprehensive Plan, in addition to its regulatory functions.
Notable actions in 2011 include the following:
• Supported the Planning Board's 4 zoning amendment proposals for the Annual
Town Meeting.
• Coordinated a Village Center Streetscape Plan project with support from the
Cape Cod Commission. A series of public meetings and workshops culminated
with a final report to the Board of Selectmen that was unanimously supported.
• Worked with the new Orleans Community Partnership to set priorities for
economic improvements, as recommended in the Village Center Market Study
completed in 2010.
• Completed the MEPA review and the Development of Regional Impact review of
the Orleans Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan. Also assisted
getting a Cost Comparison Study of wastewater collection and treatment
alternatives underway, with a report scheduled for August 2012.
• Worked with state officials on design details for the Route 6A & Route 28
intersection roundabout. MADOT is expected to advertise in fall 2012 for a
construction start in spring 2013.
• Successfully petitioned MADOT for future work on the intersections of 6A/Main
Street and 28/Main Street. Survey work was underway at the end of 2011.
• Updated and maintained the Town Geographic Information System (GIS).
• Participated in planning issues related to water quality in Pleasant Bay through
the Pleasant Bay Alliance.
• Researched a proposed Coast to Coast walkway. A public workshop on a
proposed Beach Road sidewalk indicated a lack of public support and no further
work is anticipated.

PLEASANT BAY ALLIANCE
Chatham and Brewster established to coordinate implementation of the Pleasant Bay
Resource Management Plan. The plan incorporates the Pleasant Bay Area of Critical
Environmental Concern (ACEC) and the 21,600-acre watershed. The Alliance develops
public policy recommendations, technical studies and public education tools to support the
Bay's natural resources and the public's safe enjoyment of Pleasant Bay. Highlights from
2011 are listed below. For more information, please visit www.pleasantbay.org.
130
Water Quality - the Pleasant Bay Citizen Water Quality Monitoring Program finished its
12th season of monitoring. Samples were collected at 20 locations throughout the
Pleasant Bay system and, once again, our dedicated volunteers recorded a 90%
sample recovery rate. Samples are analyzed for nutrient parameters at the School of
Marine Science and Technology Laboratory.
Fertilizer Management - The Pleasant Bay Fertilizer Management Plan released in
2011 provides strategies to reduce nitrogen loading from fertilizer use in the Pleasant
Bay watershed. A public workshop was held in March to explain the plan and present
alternative turf management and gardening techniques. As a first step in
implementation of the plan, the Alliance's worked with municipal turf managers to
develop a policy to control fertilizer use on town properties. The policy will be presented
to Boards of Selectmen for consideration in 2012.
Muddy Creek Restoration - The Alliance worked with the Cape Cod Conservation
District and consultants to study the resource effects of widening the culvert under
Route 28 at Pleasant Bay and Muddy Creek. Preliminary findings demonstrate that
widening the culvert could improve water quality and restore salt marsh in Muddy
Creek. The full report will be presented to the public in 2012. The Cape Cod Water
Resource Restoration Project funded this project.
Coastal Resources -A Coastal Resource Guide for Pleasant Bay and Chatham Harbor
was developed with assistance from the Woods Hole Sea Grant, Cape Cod
Commission and Provincetown Center for Coastal Studies. The guide will provide
useful information for resource managers, conservation commissions, and citizens and
will provide a scientific basis for developing management recommendations. The guide
will be published in early 2012.
Dredging Assessment - An assessment of the need, resource impacts and regulatory
feasibility of improvement dredging in the ACEC recommends an amendment to the
Pleasant Bay Resource Management Plan to allow the a municipality to seek permits
for improvement dredging in a limited area of the Bay near the 2007 inlet, if necessary
to maintain historic navigation access.
The Alliance wishes to thank the citizens of Orleans for your ongoing support.

POLICE DEPARTMENT
It is my pleasure to provide the citizens of Orleans with the 2011 Annual Report. The
personnel of the Orleans Police Department will continue to do their best to provide for
your safety and wellbeing working with other local, Federal and State agencies, and
most importantly the general public who have more eyes and ears than all policing
agencies combined. Only with the combined efforts of all working together can we
131
achieve the safest environment realistically possible. Please read this report, look at the
statistics and most importantly, offer any advice or ask any questions so that we may
better serve you.
During this past year we saw many changes in personnel within the department. Long
time Patrol Officer Glenn Wilcox retired in July and left with over 30 years of police
experience. His dedication towards community policing and his positive interaction with
business owners will be missed. In December, Anne Reynolds, the department's
Administrative Assistant, also retired. She was an integral part of not only maintaining
and providing police records but also in the direct management of the chief's office and
did so with a great attitude and a reputation of going above and beyond for the citizens
she served. Greta Montgomery was hired to take her place; however the hours for the
position were cut to part time. Andrew McLaughlin was promoted to sergeant in June
and provides positive supervision and direction to the midnight- 8AM shift. We also
hired three new officers; Sean Reed, Patrick Cronin and Robert Franz who, when their
training is complete, will bring our department up to full staff.
Policing continues to become more complex, requiring more expertise from your law
enforcement community. At the same time, we must continue our traditional efforts
such as: traffic enforcement, routine patrols, responding to various emergencies, and
maintaining a rapport with our citizens to foster trust and maintain lines of
communication. We continue to evaluate programs and initiatives; making adjustments
as needed, to best serve our community, ensuring that front line traditional policing
initiatives of answering emergencies are not compromised. We hope that our funding
levels allow us to continue the development of the Police Department and the services
to the community that we all expect and deserve.
Some programs we continue to offer on a limited basis are more critical for the current
times such as: "R.A.D." (Rape Aggression Defense); a newly enhanced "Project
Lifesaver", which helps locate wandering Alzheimer patients or others with medical
conditions; and the "Reassurance Program" to check on the elderly. Our affiliation
continues with the Cape Cod Law Enforcement Council (CCLEC), a contingent of 16
local law enforcement agencies and the Barnstable Sheriffs' Department, formed to
promote greater public safety and protection within local communities through the
sharing of resources and promoting greater capacity which exceed the capabilities of
any one single agency. Through this Law Enforcement Council many initiatives have
been accomplished, well beyond the means of individual agencies. In addition, we
continue participating in the County wide drug and criminal task force which has been
very helpful in identifying and solving numerous crimes, including those in our
community. CCLEC also maintains state of the art equipment and specially trained
police officers from various member agencies which have assisted us with not only
SWAT expertise and Accident Reconstruction, but also various investigations including
sexual assaults, identity thefts and illegal drug activities.
In 2011, as in past years, we aggressively pursued outside funding to augment Town
resources for equipment purchases and additional officers in the field. Due to the
unfavorable economic times, most funding for local agencies like ours has almost been
eliminated, with the limited available resources being directed to regional initiatives such
as CCLEC and our regional drug task force. We were given free bicycle helmets and
partnered with schools and various businesses to provide helmets to children and some
132
of our foreign workers. Additionally, we received a grant from the Governor's Highway
Safety Bureau to address safety belt usage, driving while under the influence and other
traffic safety concerns.
Communication with everyone in our community is something we continually foster.
Initiatives in this area include many of the programs listed earlier as well as an e-mail
alert system which alerts businesses and/or residents of scams and other crime related
information; Channel 18 on cable TV; and, our ongoing participation with various other
civic groups, all in an effort to provide high quality services and for our citizens to
interact with officers in varied settings. In terms of services directed to our senior
population, the previously noted "Reassurance Program", which monitors at risk seniors
on a daily basis and "Project Lifesaver" provide essential safety net functions. Please
visit our web site httU://u,u,u,.tou,il.orleails.ma.lrs/Uazes/orleallsma police/
to view additional information and informative links, including "Mass Most Wanted" -
Sex Offender Registry, Domestic Violence resources, Identity Theft resources and
others, as along with the Police and Town General By-Laws.
We continually strive to develop our organization in an effort to better serve our
community. Staff development and training are key components. Personnel have
attended numerous training sessions to keep current and expand their knowledge with
the goal of delivering ever improving quality of service and protection of the community.
A wide variety of courses and seminars were attended by various personnel in addition
to all officers' annual participation in a week long training program through the
Massachusetts Criminal Justice Training Council covering legal issues, firearms
qualification, first responder certification, defensive tactics and community policing.
The Police Department was involved in approximately 14,000 incidents in 2011,
relatively consistent over the past couple of years. Officers responded to 344 motor
vehicle accidents. Many things factor into accident statistics including weather,
enforcement, and inattentiveness of drivers. Officers strike a balance in levels of
enforcement actions, stopping and warning many operators rather than issuing a civil
citation. Your continued vigilance in monitoring your own driving habits is the most
effective way in making our roads safer for all. The overall crime statistics for our
community are very positive. They are reflective of the hard work and commitment of
the men and women of the police department, and citizen vigilance, serving as extra
eyes and ears for the police department.
As in past years, I will conclude by thanking all the people who have supported the
Orleans Police Department. Many of you have spoken to me personally, and others
sent notes of appreciation complimenting various members of the department. Your
expressions of thanks are greatly appreciated. If you have any comments or
suggestions, which you feel would be beneficial to us in better serving you, please let us
know. You can telephone me at 508-255-2114, stop by the Police Station, or send us a
note. In addition, on behalf of the men and women of the Orleans Police Department I
want to extend a special thank you for the continued and excellent support of the other
departments within Orleans. We will continue to work closely with the Fire department,
Harbor Master, Parks and Beaches and Highway and assist each other to bring the best
service to our community.
Respectfully submitted,
Jeffrey J. Roy, Chief of Police

RENEWABLE ENERGY COMMITTEE
The Committee was pleased to host a reception in June at the COA to celebrate the
commissioning of the 51 Solar Photovoltaic panels mounted on the two south facing
roofs of the Council. As reported last year, the overall cost to the Town and Council on
135
Aging: ZERO! The project was fully funded through a grant of $122,480 from the
Federal Government's American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and the
Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources. Projected annual savings for the
town: $2500.
In August, the town responded to the Cape and Vineyard Electric (CVEC) initiative to
install ground mounted Photovoltaic Solar Panels on Municipal property. We offered 6
sites in the Letter of Intent. 2 sites were deemed commercially viable: a 1.7-acre
Landfill and a 3.5 Watershed site. A Town Meeting authorization will be needed to
move forward with these sites and a Watershed site will need Legislative relief from
Article 97. The Town signed an exclusivity agreement with CVEC that prohibited
discussion with any other solar developers from late August through December 31St. In
the meantime, the Committee has attempted to seek information that may be useful in
determining the value of any proposal made by CVEC.
In our ongoing effort to educate the citizens of Orleans about Energy Efficiency and
Renewables, the Committee hosted two informational education programs. In July, My
Generation Energy gave a presentation at the COA on residential Solar Energy. In
September at Snow Library, a panel of experts on both Solar PV and Solar thermal
installations joined a representative from the Cape Light Compact who discussed
energy efficiency for homeowners. We also filled the Snow Library display window in
October with information on wind and solar renewables and energy efficiency. We
featured pictures and a description of the COA solar installation.
The Committee has offered to assist the Cape Light Compact Education Outreach staff
as they bring renewable energy and energy efficiency experiences for the students at
OES and the Nauset Middle School.

SHELLFISH AND WATERWAYS IMPROVEMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE
This Committee is charged by the Board of Selectmen to respond to concerns brought
to it by the Selectmen, by the Harbormaster/Shellfish Constable, or by any citizen of
Orleans. Responses by the Committee are not statutory or enforcing, but are advisory
to all parties, and especially to the Board of Selectmen. The Committee initiates
relevant projects on its own, projects that improve its observation skills and advisory
judgments.
The members of the Committee come from diverse interests and backgrounds with
respect to the Town's waters. They represent family and commercial fishermen,
aquaculturists, boaters, and waterfront landowners.
In 2011, we continued to observe pressure on our Harbormaster/Shellfish Department.
The demands for water access, boat launching, parking and moorings increase year to
year and were particularly acute during July and August of 2011. The goal of the
committee is to offer advice that helps us sustain our water based resources and ensure
that all that use then enjoy them.
The committee continued its active support of the Pilgrim Lake Herring run program and
would like to thank the over 70 volunteer herring counters for their dedication to
monitoring and counting the herring coming up our local run. This year the volunteers
also counted the migration of glass eels which resulted in the State of MA Division Of
Fisheries recognizing the Orleans run as a significant estuary for the maintenance and
growth of glass eels. The herring run was also surveyed by the State in preparation for
a planned reconstruction and upgrade in late 2012/2013 to better facilitate the migration
of both herring and eels.
During multiple sessions the committee discussed and studied reasonable ways (i.e.-
low risk and low cost) to increase the numbers of shellfish stock in Orleans waters. No
definitive answers could be reached and this subject will continue in to 2012.
Don Bakker as 2011 Chair and David Slack as Secretary, did an excellent job during the
year keeping the committee organized and focused on issues pertinent to Orleans
waterways. As in previous years, Judy Scanlon as our resident marine biologist
continued to be a valuable contributor to the committee and the Town of Orleans
We continue to be grateful to Dawson Farber, our Harbormaster/Shellfish Constable,
Who shares with and encourages the Committee greatly. He has also helped us to work
On such hands-on projects as the maintenance of the herring runs at Pilgrim Lake.
Selectman David Dunford has been a very helpful liaison to the Committee, and we are
grateful for his faithful attendance, advice, and communication with the Board of
Selectmen.

SNOW LIBRARY
Well another year is in the books, so they say. 2011 was an interesting year both for the
general populous and those of us associated with Snow Library. We would like to thank
the citizens of Orleans for their continued support of the library both in monetary and
usage terms.
Like all of the town departments, Snow Library, continues to feel the pressures of the
economy. The library continues to look for ways to reduce costs yet retain the quality
service our patrons expect. This is a constant concern as prices for operations and
maintenance increase. Thankfully the library staff continued to provide great service
and numerous programs from past years and new ones started in 2011 for the patron's
entertainment.
The Friends of Snow Library continue to be ever present; without them we know not
what we would do. They again ran Lifetime Learning Programs (almost 40 in all), such
as The Media, Then and Now - Edward Fouhy, CBS News Executive, Illustrious Cape
Codders, Ideas and Novels - Steve Bornemeier, M.A. Jeff Bornemeier, B.A., So You
Want to be a Poet - Peter Saunders,Ph. D. and these programs attracted more
"students". They sponsored the third annual Snow Ball that raised new money for the
utilization of new and current technologies especially as they pertain to e-books, audio-
books, movies and music which are available to all through the CLAMS catalog. E-
readers (Kindle's and Nook's) became even more popular and the library staff provided
demonstrations and light technical help so patrons could learn how to use their new
toys.
A look at the numbers as of June 30, 2011 show 10,995 registered borrowers, a total
circulation of 172,957 and holdings of 86,181. The library has 114 subscriptions and 18
different databases, not including statewide or regional licenses. In addition, there are
12 computers with internet access as well as wireless access throughout the building.
Through the Rowena Myers Trust another January music series was sponsored that
included Kami Lyle Trio, Cape Cod Symphony Woodwind/String Trio, Toast and Jam,
and the Parkington Sisters. The library has a New Youth Services Librarian, Judi
Wilson, who replaced Susan Kelley who retired in January of 2011. The Friends of
Snow sponsored the Orleans Elementary School-Wide Read in March, as all students
and families read Masterpiece by Elise Broach. In the summer, there was a new
139
program, Summer @ Snow, for adults sponsored by the Fred J. Brotherton Foundation
(a new donor). The programs: Cape Cod Symphony Brass Quintet Ensemble; Lisa
Genova, author of Still Alice and Left Neglected; New England's Great White Shark
Revisited by Dr. Greg Skomal, Mass Dept of Marine Fisheries; William Martin, author of
Cape Cod, Back Bay and most recently, City of Dreams; Cape Cod Symphony Classical
String Trio; The Parkington Sisters; "Coastal Birds of Cape Cod" by Robert Prescott of
the Wellfleet Bay Mass Audubon Sanctuary; "An Evening of Poetry" with poets Jill
McDonough & Fred Marchant and finally a Cape Rep Theatre preview of "Good Bye
Mary Rose" were very diverse and interesting. This was all in addition to monthly book
clubs, a weekly toddler craft class, story times for toddlers and preschoolers. This year
the library partnered more actively with the Orleans Elementary School.
We are most appreciative for a hard working and knowledgeable staff who remain
helpful and committed during these difficult times. They are a big part of what makes
Snow Library special. We are also thankful for the donations and gifts that are given to
the library in honor and memory of loved ones. This year gifts were given in memory of
Pamela Chisholm, Beverly Cody, Martha Corbett, Margarida Dederick, Jane Hercz,
Kendall Higgins and Lillian Thomas.
We continue to look at long range planning. As a continuation of exploring options a
committee of Orleans' residents worked diligently on priorities that ranged from parking
to technology resources. At this time the need for some form of expansion continues
but how it will be resolved depends on the economy, citizen input and town priorities. It
is our wish to work with all as decisions are made. We urge you to look at the Snow
Library web page. Much of the above information and more is included there. Again,
we thank you, the citizens of Orleans, for your support and devotion to our very special
library. And our thanks would not be complete without thanking all the town
departments who help us run smoothly, especially Peter Van Dyck of Information
Systems, Mark Budnick at the Highway Department, Paul Fulcher and his staff in the
Parks Department.
Respectfully submitted,
Timothy T.Traub, Library Trustee Chairperson
SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
First and foremost, on behalf of all the students in the Nauset Public Schools, let me
thank you for supporting the Proposition 2 '/2 Override in May 2012 which provided the
schools with many needed resources including technology, instructional supplies and
staff positions which would have been cut without your support. Your affirmative vote
in fall 2012 to pay for the Green Repair Project at Nauset High School is also greatly
appreciated, especially in these difficult economic times. Thanks to your generosity and
a $2.4 million grant from the State, we will be able to replace our 40 year-old drafty
windows and our failing roofs thus protecting this important regional asset long into the
future.
At Orleans Elementary School (OES), our 2011 MCAS scores were again well above
the State average. Scores remained high in most grades and subjects with the highest
scores in Grade 3 English where OES ranked #62 out of 957 schools in the State!
When school opened in September 2011, teachers began work to align our curriculum
140
with the new "Common Core Standards" that have been adopted in Massachusetts.
These new standards will continue our mission to provide a rigorous foundation of skills
for our elementary students. OES is also a place where our students' creativity is
promoted and celebrated through our outstanding music and art programs. OES is also
very proud of our long tradition of bringing the community into the school and the
students out into the community through wonderful partnerships with the Snow Library,
the Orleans Historical Society and the Friends of Pleasant Bay to name just a few.
Volunteers abound at OES and we appreciate the time, passion, and helping hands that
our community friends share with us.
Student achievement at Nauset Middle School and Nauset High School continued to
receive the highest rankings on State testing. For example, Nauset Middle School
ranked #51 of 468 schools in Grade 8 science; Nauset High School ranked #26 of 346
schools in Grade 10 science. One area we gave special attention to in 2011 was
mathematics instruction. Our new emphasis is on ensuring that students understand
the underlying concepts in mathematics, not just getting the correct answer. Teams of
teachers are working together to energize these efforts and to bring new resources to
our classrooms through technology. The Regional Schools' annual capital plan will now
include funds to replace outdated technology and other tools to prepare our students for
the 21St century. As we look to the future it will not be long before textbooks are
obsolete and most instruction and homework will be done "on-line." It is critical that our
students have the tools and the skills to succeed in our global economy.
Two new initiatives were launched in 2011 — Health and Wellness and Two Tier Bus
System. The new Health & Wellness policy is Nauset's response to the growing
problem of childhood obesity. The policy and the programs we will create will help
students to better understand the health impact of their diet and life style choices.
Components include: nutrition education, physical activity, revamped lunch menus,
healthy ideas for snacks and celebrations, and mini farms at the schools to provide
fresh vegetables in the cafeterias. The Two Tier bus system was implemented in
recognition of the research that shows that high school students need more sleep and
should start school later in the day. Our program switched the opening of Nauset High
from 7:25 AM to 8:35 AM. Teachers and students at the high school report very positive
effects from this change. However, the plan needs further review next year as it cost
more than anticipated and some parents feel the new start time for elementary students
is too early.
Your schools are also proud of the fact that we continue to offer our students
opportunities to learn and grow through art, music, drama, foreign language, physical
education, sports, and extra-curricular activities. While some schools have responded
to the economic crisis by eliminating these programs, Nauset and OES have continued
to advocate for the richest learning environment that we can afford as education is the
cornerstone of all of our futures.
Our schools are not just for our younger residents. They are for our entire community
and as such, I invite you to become involved and support our efforts to provide the best
education we can. After all, today's students are tomorrow's leaders who will use their
years of education for the betterment of our world.
141
Please feel free to contact me at any time. My door is always open to you and I invite
you to share your thoughts and ideas with me. I am honored and privileged to be your
Superintendent of Schools.
Respectfully submitted,
Richard J. Hoffmann, Ed. D., Superintendent of Schools
VETERANS' GRAVES OFFICER
Another year has quickly gone by. It was a year of many windstorms as evidenced by
the way the flags have been torn to shreds or just plain stripped from the staffs. As
much as possible I try to replace flags in bad condition but I don't always get them all.
Just before this past Veterans Day there had been a bad storm that destroyed a great
number of flags. Unfortunately I was away at the time but Bill Giroux came to the rescue
procuring new flags and replacing all that needed replacing. Thank you Bill!
I have begun a program of replacing flag holders with new ones as I find those that are
bent, broken, or missing. If anyone finds a holder that I have missed or that needs
replacing please let me know. Also if you see a flag staff without a flag please do not
remove the staff as this makes it much more difficult to make sure all graves have a
flag.
At the present time there are 600 plus Veteran's Graves that are now marked and as we
know that number is increasing rather quickly.
Respectfully submitted,
Peter C. Howerton, Veterans' Graves Officer
VETERANS' SERVICES
In 2011 we were able to add an additional service officer to the Lower Cape operation.
Harry Rae joined our staff and covers our Provincetown office as well as assisting Wit
Remillard with the staffing of our Harwich office. As a result we have been able to
increase our hours in Harwich to 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday. This has allowed us to respond to the increasing demand from our returning
Iraq/Afghanistan veterans as well as the changing needs of our World War 11, Korea,
Vietnam and peacetime veterans.
Difficult economic conditions continue and medical costs continue to increase. In 2011
we provided local aid of over $40,000 to the town's neediest veterans and widows.
These benefits were reimbursed to the town at 75% by the Commonwealth.
We also filed numerous claims with the Veterans Administration for service-connected
disabilities for Orleans veterans and low income federal pensions for veterans and
widows. Federal monies paid to Orleans veterans and widows in 2011 totaled in
excess of one million dollars.
142
Our objective is to be a one-stop center for all of the benefit needs of both veterans and
their spouses and our staff works very hard to meet that goal. We are anxious and
willing to assist with claims and information for the full range of available services.
We encourage any veteran or dependent of a veteran to contact us at 1-888-778-8701
Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM. We can also schedule appointments
in one of our offices, in the Town Hall, at your home or any location that is best for you.
We would like to thank the Town Administrator, Treasurer, Town Accountant and
Finance Committee for their outstanding support.
In the Service of all Veterans,
Edward F. Merigan, Director and Veterans' Agent
Wilfred Remillard, Orleans Service Officer
Harry G. Rae, Lower Cape Service Officer.

WATER DEPARTMENT
The year 2011 was devoted significantly to the maintenance of Water Department
assets as the water system approaches 50 years.
The Board of Water and Sewer Commissioners worked with Department staff to create
a scope of services for an RFP to develop a 20-year Asset Management Plan.
The Orleans Water Department was able to replace original roofing at four of its
pumping stations utilizing local contractors and water department staff.
The Town of Orleans contracted with the engineering form Haley and Ward to develop
specifications for the painting and rehabilitation of storage tank #2 which was last
painted in 1991. The rehabilitation will bring the tank into compliance with DEP's new
recommended standards for storage tanks. The Board of Water and Sewer
Commissioners as part of the rehabilitation project researched mixing systems which
are used to decrease water age in storage tanks and chose the PAX system for
installation as part of the rehabilitation project.
The Orleans Water Treatment Plant's second rack of membranes was replaced utilizing
Water Department staff in September 2011. The decision to move forward with the
replacement process utilizing microfiltration in place of the current ultrafiltration was
made to provide a reduction in operating cost as well as a 10-year versus a 5-year
manufacturer's warranty. The first of the three membrane racks was replaced in 2010.
Two generators were installed for emergency backup power during 2011. The first at
storage tank #2 for communications and the second at well #2 for powering wells 2 & 8
in an emergency.
The Board of Water and Sewer Commissioners also devoted significant efforts to the
following matters in 2011:
• Recommendation to the Board of Selectmen to join the Massachusetts
Water/Wastewater Agency Response Network for mutual assistance in the event
of an emergency.
• Recommendation to the Board of Selectmen for a 3.5% rate increase.
• Began review of Chapter 196 Rules and Regulations of the Water Department.
• Supported the use of Watershed open space for PV solar energy generation.
• Supported open space acquisitions for watershed protection
144
Throughout the year the Water Department maintained its system maintenance
programs. This includes the inspection, repair and replacement of fire hydrants, meter
replacement program, and valve exercising.
We would like to express our appreciation to the Water Department personnel,
especially Todd Bunzick and Susan Brown who both stepped up to replace Water
Superintendent Louis Briganti after his passing, the other town departments and the
residents of the Town of Orleans for their assistance, cooperation and support during
the past year.

approved at the 2011 Annual Town Meeting. Late in the year, 4 additional zoning
amendments were developed for public hearing and possible consideration at the 2012
Annual Town Meeting.
