Webster, Massachusetts • Town Guide • ANNUAL
Dear Members of the Webster Community, The Town of Webster has seen a lot of progress over the last year. In closing out my second year as Town Administrator, we have has an incredible year of improvements and changes. I look forward to continue the momentum to make a community an even better place to live. Here is a brief overview of some of the headway we made in the past year. Our Police Department underwent a lot of change in 2018. First, we’d like to congratulate departing Chief Tim Bent on his retirement and thank him for his many years of dedicated service. With Chief Bent’s departure, we’d like to recognize the promotions of Deputy Chief Shaw to Chief of Police, Lieutenant Tobby Wheeler to Deputy Chief and Sergeant Wentworth to Lieutenant. These men will continue to dedicate their time and energies to improving our community. The department hired four new offi cers this past year—Offi cers DiBuono, Melhouse, Ochocki and Trainor. Additionally, Francheska Cedeno will be attending the Police Academy in June. The Town has continued its efforts to curb the opioid and other substance abuse epidemic. Our Opioid Taskforce continues to be active and has hired a part-time outreach worker to reach those struggling with addiction and overdose. They continue to hold Narcan trainings and public support meetings. The Town also joined a class action opioid litigation lawsuit to assist in the recovery of municipal costs resulting from the opioid crisis. The Town has increased the quantity and quality of its community events. This past year the Town sponsored the following: WinterFire, Spring Clean-up, Independence Day Fireworks, Summer Concert Series and Market, Duck off Races, Touch-a-Boat, Jet Ski Races, National Night Out, Shakespeare in the Park, Community Shredding Day, Car Show, Trunk-or-Treat, Holiday Bazaar, Tree Lighting, Winter Wonderland, Christmas Light Contest. We love putting on these activities and the sense of community it builds. We hope you all enjoy them too. We continue to make improvements at the beach too. This past year the community graciously donated over $14,000 for the construction of a new picnic structure at the beach. This will start construction in early spring. Thank you all who made generous donations. The beach also started accepting online payments. There is an active beach planning committee that is making plans for additional improvements to the beach. Last year the Town hired a new Accountant, Tim Bell. Tim has been hard at work organizing and improving our fi nancial system. In addition to Tim, the Webster Retirement System recently hired Kristin LaPlante to replace our long-time administrator Gerry Wentworth. We wish Gerry well in her retirement and Kristin well as she begins her new job. Congratulations to Jim Chauvin as well, who recently retired as Treasurer/ Collector. We wish Tina Landry well as she embraces her new role as Treasurer/Collector In addition to some personnel changes, the Town has made some operational changes as well. Over the past year the town adopted fi nancial policies and created an audit review committee. The implementation of these policies has and will continue to ensure our fi nancial reporting measures and adequate and up to date. (Continued on next page)

This past year the Town has been aggressive in fi nding additional cost saving measures. As you have probably noticed, the Town converted all the streetlights to LED. This is estimated to save almost $170,000 annually. The Town also rebid its insurance coverage and saved $180,000 by switching to a new insurance company. Additionally, we are currently creating a consortium to purchase employee health insurance. As we work with the employee’s unions, we hope that with the increase in bulk buying power we should see a signifi cant savings in premium costs. We have also consolidated positions, increased our electricity net metering credits, adjusted retiree health insurance and used the State’s bonding authority to save additional money. Along with cutting down on the expenditures, we are aggressively pursuing other revenue options, including grants. The Town has been very successful, receiving over $500,000 in grant funding so far for the 2018 calendar year. Town Meeting voted to allow retail marijuana facilities in town and we have been working to allow these facilities in appropriate locations. This will allow us to take advantage of the revenue that can be generated through taxing the sale of adult-use recreational marijuana. In April, we entered into a $100,000 host agreement with Curaleaf, Inc. for the cultivation of recreational marijuana. The Town has been aggressive in improving the business climate in Town. Most notably, the Town adopted a single tax rate for the fi rst time in 36 years. As small businesses look to move into town, this will be a big selling point. We are also working on cleaning up the Town, especially the downtown area. We have made a concerted effort to clean up the litter and weeds in public spaces. You may have noticed how much better the public parking area behind Main Street on Davis Street looks. The Town passed a nuisance property and a vacant property bylaw this past June. We are more aggressively monitoring code enforcement issues such as trash removal, overgrown brush, lawn cutting, ice on sidewalks, etc. Additionally, residents are encouraged to report vacant or nuisance properties for us to follow up on. The local Webster post offi ce has been very helpful assisting us identify vacant properties for the Town to register and inspect. Furthermore, we created an economic development fund to provide resources and grants to public projects that advance the local business climate and grants to businesses moving into town or improving their business. We hope as this program gains momentum that it will be the catalyst for further improvements. We applied for additional funding from the State to hopefully sustain this program well into the future. Some future projects include a mural downtown and “Welcome to Webster” signs. The Town is marketing properties that have a high potential for development or redevelopment. We hope to attract investors that are willing to make signifi cant investments in our community. One of the tools we were able to secure to help us in this effort was having a large portion of East Main designated as an “Opportunity Zone.” Opportunity Zones are a new development with the passage of the revised federal tax code last year. It allows investors/developers to invest in designated low-income census tracts with generous tax deferral and forgiveness components. In what must be the Town’s biggest accomplishment this past year, the Gladys E. Kelly Public Library was completed and opened to the public. (Continued on next page)

This beautiful edifi ce will be an anchor to our community for the next 100 years. The Town is indebted to the hard-working individuals on the Library Building Committee, Library Board of Trustees, and Friends of the Library that worked to secure funding, oversee construction and manage the project from start to fi nish. We are very pleased with the response from the community and hope that the library continues to be a gathering place for all residents. Another long-awaited project is the construction of the water fi ltration plant. The project began this past year and will be completed in summer 2019. The fi ltration plant, along with cleaning and relining prioritized water mains, will drastically improve the water clarity. Town Meeting approved over $620,000 for cleaning and relining water mains this past year. That project has been bid out and will begin in the spring. While we wait for these improvements to take effect, the Town adopted an interest free loan for residents to install water fi lters in their homes. The Offi ce of Community Development is hard at work expanding the French River Walk. The next phase of the master plan will begin in the spring. Community Development also funded the reconstruction of Dresser Street this past year. The Highway department was very effective in improving other roadways this past summer. One of the most notable was repaving Main Street after NGrid replaced many of their gas lines. There are many other smaller infrastructure projects in the works. Town Hall is slowly seeing improvements with the basement currently being remodeled. We have applied for grant funding for historic preservation work to the auditorium in Town Hall. The old Senior Center will be opening in January as the new Head Start school on School Street. The School Department submitted to the Massachusetts School Building Authority for major renovations to Bartlett High School. Bartlett High made it to the short list of projects that they are evaluating for funding. Also, a new fi re engine was approved for purchase at our June Town Meeting. As we look to the future, We are grateful to the local media outlets, both print and radio, that help us spread the news of town events and progress. We are also working to install electronic message boards at Town Hall to better share local news and information. As usual, we have several openings on Town Committees and boards. We welcome all residents to join us as we move towards the future. Moving forward, we plan on prioritizing our efforts to focus even more on economic development. This includes both improving the visual aesthetics of town as well as attracting and retaining businesses. As we continue to deal with shrinking budgets and increased expectations, we will work hard to make sure we have sustainable fi nancial plans and reserves for the future. With a revamped police department, we will continue to focus on assisting those with substance abuse addictions and make our community safer through data-driven, aggressive policing. Furthermore, we’ll continue the plans in place to improve the quality of Town water. It is my pleasure to work with all of you, and I encourage you to contact me if I can help you at any time. I am proud to be your Town Administrator and I thank you for your continued support. You are the backbone of Webster: you are the ones making the real change. Sincerely, Doug Willardson - Town Administrator, dwillardson@webster-ma.gov

This fun dynamic acoustic duo performs favorites from the 80s and 90s. Winners of Best Pop Act in the 2013 Worcester Music Awards, The Cosby Sweaters always bring humor and energy to their performances. Come enjoy a night of laughs and great music.
