ARTICLE  12  —  Zoning  Amendment  #5 

Are  you  in  favor  of  the  adoption  of  Amendment  #5  as 
proposed  by  the  Planning  Board  for  the  Town  Zoning 
Ordinance  as  follows: 

Amend  the  terms  of  Art.  6.88  Growth  Management 
Ordinance  so  as  to  increase  the  annual  number  of 
residential  building  permits  from  96  to  132  and 
other  textual  changes  as  indicated  so  that  it  reads: 

The  Town  of  Exeter  deems  it  desirable  to  control  its 
growth,  size  and  nature  to  achieve  the  following 
objectives: 

To  promote  the  development  of  an  economically 
sound  and  environmentally  stable  "small  town"' 
residential  community; 

To  preserve  the  scenic  beauty  and  present 
aesthetic  values  of  the  Town; 

To  prevent  scattered  or  premature  develop- 
ment of  the  land; 

To  protect  the  health,  safety,  convenience, 
property  and  general  welfare  of  its  inhabitants; 

To  insure  that  the  rate  of  growth  of  the  Town 
does  not  unreasonably  interfere  with  the  Town's 
capacity  for  planned,  orderly  and  sensible  expan- 
sion of  its  services  to  accommodate  such  growth; 
To  promote  development  harmonious  with  land 
capabilities  within  the  Town; 

To  prevent  too  rapid  a  pace  of  growth  that 
tends  to  thwart  the  planning  process  and  to  esca- 
late too  rapidly  the  growth  and  costs  of  municipal 
services,  especially  of  schools; 

To  allow  the  shared  goals,  plans  and  objectives 

of  the  Town,  its  planning  officials  and  its  citizens 

to  be  realized  in  a  comprehensive  fashion  as  set 

forth  m  the  Exeter  Master  Plan. 

And  whereas  it  has  been  determined  that  the 

Town  can  provide  a  level  of  services  compatible  with 

the  rate  of  growth  experienced  between  1970  and 

1978,  which  rate  of  growth  is  defined  as  a  percentage 

increase  in  population  from  one  year  to  the  next. 

And  whereas,  the  population  of  the  Town  of 
Exeter  has  increased  at  a  rate  of  two  to  three  percent 
between  1970  and  1978,  and  approximately  1.2% 
(new)  between  1980  and  1983. 

Now,  therefore,  this  ordinance  intends  to  limit 
the  rate  of  growth  during  the  term  hereof  to  approx- 
mately  3%  of  the  1984  housing  stock  which  is 
(new)  4,500  dwelling  units. 
A.  Regulations 

1.  No  more  than  132  building  permits  for  new 
dwelling  units  shall  be  issued  per  calendar  year, 
at  the  rate  of  1 1  permits  to  be  granted  each 
month. 

2.  One  permit  shall  be  issued  for  each  dwelling 
unit,  with  a  duplex  requiring  two  permits,  etc. 

3.  In  the  event  that  less  than   II   permits  are 
(new)         issued  in  one  month,  the  remaining  permits

following  month's  quota  of  permits.  In  the 
event  that  less  than  132  permits  are  issued  in 
one  calendar  year, ,  the  remaining  permits  shall

calendar  year,  up  to  a  maximum  of  12  permits 
to  be  distributed  equally  over  the  months  of 
March,  April,  and  May,  and  subsequently 
carried  forward  into  the  following  months  if 
not  issued. 

(new)  4.  The  first  15  days  of  each  month  shall  be  set

month;  permit  applications  received  at  the 
building  inspector's  office  from  the  16th  of  the 
month  to  the  end  of  the  month  shall  be  credited 
to  the  first  day  of  the  following  month,  one 
minute  apart,  in  the  order  of  which  received 
at  the  opening  of  business.  In  the  event  that  no 
more  than  11  applications  for  building  permits 
are  received  in  one  month,  provisions  of  a-6,  7, 
and  10  below  shall  not  apply  to  the  issuance 
of  permits. 
5.  Permits  shall  be  issued  by  the  20th  of  each 
month. 

(new)  6.  Upon  receipt  of  more  than  11  applications  in 
one  month,  all  such  applications  shall  first  be 
reviewed  to  insure  compliance  with  other  regu- 
lations; each  application  shall  then  be  evaluated 
according  to  a  "merit  system"  by  the  building 
inspector's  office. 

(new)  7.  According  to  the  "merit  system"  those  11 
having  the  highest  total  points  in  one  month 
are  each  entitled  to  receive  one  building  permit 
for  that  month. 

8.  Building  permits  shall  run  with  the  land  for  a 
period  of  two  years,  after  which  time  a  renewal 
application  must  be  filed  with  the  building  in- 
spector as  provided  for  in  Section  b-7  herein. 

9.  No  single  individual,  corporation,  development

Selectmen 


Ix>oking  back  over  1984,  si^i- 
ficant  events  stand  out  in  a  year 
that  the  Board  of  Selectmen, 
Town  employees,  and  members  of 
all  boards  and  commissions 
worked  together  with  one  goal  in 
mind:  the  welfare  of  Exeter  and 
its  residents  today,  tomorrow, 
and  into  the  future. 

Our  former  Town  Manager 
Don  Chick  retired  and  was 
replaced  by  former  Police  Chief 
Thomas  Powers.  Police 
Lieutenant  Frank  Caracciolo  was 
promoted  to  Police  Chief.  It  is 
interesting  to  note  that 
promotions  to  these  top 
management  positions  could  be 
made  from  within  our  existing 
organization.  Even  with  these 
major  changes  in  personnel, 
business  went  on  as  usual! 

Exeter's  business  climate  was 
very  active  with  significant  new 
business  moving  into  town 
providing  new  jobs  and  increased 
activity  for  existing  businesses. 

Work  continues  on  the  storm 


water  separation  project  and  the 
upgrading  of  the  sewer  system. 
Completion  of  these  projects  will 
allow  Exeter  to  grow  with 
adequate  sewer  capacity.  Work 
also  continues  for  the  search  for  a 
water  supply  to  meet  future 
needs.  Although  water  capacity  is 
not  a  problem  at  this  time,  it  is 
hoped  that  we  find  a  water  supply 
that  would  not  require  any 
significant  amount  of  treatment, 
thus  reducing  the  cost.  Water  has 
been  found  in  large  quantities. 
We  are  now  involved  in  the 
evaluation  of  the  economics  and 
watiT  quality  of  several  sites. 

Work  is  progressing  well  on 
the  new  Senior  Citizen's  Center 
that  was  approved  at  a  special 
Town  Meeting.  Our  senior 
citizens  will  have  a  well  deserved, 
adequate  facility  in  which  to  meet 
and  carry  out  their  activities. 

Looking  ahead,  we  will  be 
challenged  on  many  fronts.  We 
must  find  a  way  to  deal  with 
pressures     of     growth     while 


maintaining  the  integrity  and 
identity  of  this  historic  town.  We, 
the  Board  of  Selectmen,  remain 
committed  to  those  goals.  We  will 
also  be  striving,  through  the 
Town  Manager,  to  introduce  new 
innovative  management 
procedures  and  maintain  a  tight 
control  over  all  expenditures. 

We  would  like  to  extend  our 
thanks  to  the  Town  Manager, 
Department  Heads,  Town 
Employees,  and  Boards  and 
Commissions  for  a  job  well  done! 
We  look  forward  to  our  working 
together  in  the  coming  year.

Town  Manager 

For  the  greater  part  of  1984, 
Donald  Chick  served  as  your 
Town  Manager.  Don  held  the 
position  in  Exeter  for  nine  years 
and  had  accumulated  over  30 
years  of  public  management  prior 
to  his  retirement  in  November. 

During  my  first  few  months  as 
Town  Manager,  we  have  initiated 
a  long  awaited  rehabilitation  pro- 


gram for  our  sewer  system  and 
continue  our  combined  program 
of  storm  water  removal.  These 
two  programs  are  key  to  many 
other  projects  and  future  develop- 
ment for  the  Town. 

As  part  of  the  preparation  of 
the  1985  budget,  a  comprehen- 
sive plan  concerning  capital  pro- 
jects, buildings,  and  indebtedness 


has  been  developed  to  use  as  a 
guide  for  budgets  in  future  years. 
I  look  forward  to  working  toward 
the  successful  completion  of 
many  of  these  projects  in  the 
years  to  come. 

Respectfully  submitted, 
Thomas  F.  Powers  III, 
Town  Manager.

Public  Works 
Highway  Division 

I  respectfully  submit  the 
Annual  Report  for  the  Town  of 
Exeter's  Highway  Department. 

During  the  year  1984  there 
were  fourteen  (14)  storms  with  a 
total  accumulation  of  approxi- 
mately fifty-four  (54)  inches  of 
snow  and  five  (5)  freezing  rain 
storms. 

Again  Spring  Clean-Up  was 
omitted  to  get  an  early  start  on 
the  construction  season. 

Summer  maintenance  consis- 
ted of  the  usual  cold  patching  of 
pot  holes,  storm  repairs,  installa- 
tion and  cleaning,  as  well  as  trim- 
ing  and  grooming  of  the  road- 
sides. 

The  streets  done  under  our 
Contract  Paving  Program  were 
Oak  St.,  Salem  St.,  Forest  St., 
Walnut  St.,  Locust  Ave.,  Hale 
St.,  Warren  Ave.,  and  a  little 
more  done  in  the  Westside  Drive 
area. 

Our  Sidewalk  Program  work 
was  done  on  Gill  St.,  Front  St., 
Main  St.,  and  High  St. 

We  oiled  about  three  miles  of 
country  roads  and  installed  1,600 
feet  of  culvert  on  Drinkwater 
Road  along  with  our  other  duties 
of  street  marking  and  street  sign 
replacing. 

Respectfully  submitted, 
Robert  D.  Strout, 
Director  of  Public  Works.

Exeter's  Water  and  Sewer 
Departments. 

Due  to  the  amount  of  building 
construction  going  on  and  the 
need  to  mark  out  the  underground 
utilities  along  with  making  ser- 
vice taps,  the  Town  employees 
were  not  able  to  do  any  major  pro- 
jects. The  jobs  they  were  able  to 
do  consisted  of  water  leaks, 
hydrant  repairs,  grass  mowing, 
etc. 

The  Meter  Department  had 
another  good  year  installing  new 
meters  with  outside  recorders. 

A  few  more  service  cross- 
overs were  done  on  High  Street 
by  J.  A.  Baillargeon  who  was  the 
low  bidder. 

The  sewer  pumping  stations 
have  been  rebid  and  are  being  run 
by  Y.W.C.,  Inc.  who  has  done  a 
great  job  of  putting  them  back 
into  shape. 

The  lagoons  have  been  cleaned 
and  an  aeration  system  installed. 

Hodding  and  pressure  t.U'an- 
ing  of  the  sewer  mains  wero 
taken  care  of  when  needed. 

Respectfully  submitted, 
Robert  D.  Strout, 
Director  of  Public  Works. 


Fire  Department 

The  Exeter  Fire  Department 
has  completed  a  basically  predit  t- 
able  year  in  terms  of  projects  and 
accomplishments,  with  our  Dry 
Hydrant  installations  heading 
the  list. 

A  total  of  232  hours  of  volun- 
teer time  was  given  by  our 
members  putting  Dry  Hydrants 
in  at  the  Claypit  Pond  on  Route 
lll,Colcord's  Pond,  Route  111  A. 
Raines  Farm,  Route  87,  and 
Drinkwater  Road.  Backhoes  for 
the  jobs  were  donated  by  Gary 
Raymond  Construction,  and  the 
Exeter  Water  and  Sewer  Depart- 
ment. Several  more  Dry 
Hydrants  are  scheduled  for  1985. 

All  hydrants  have  been  tested 
and  will  flow  over  1,000  G.P.M. 

We  have  also  received  a 
Custom  built  Mack-Pierce  fire 
pumper  to  replace  our  ailing 
Engine-3  that  has  served  us  for 
the  past  20  years. 

Another  area  of  major  concern 
was  the  fire  rating  change  to  a 
lower  classification  by  Insurance 
Services  Office,  commercial  risk 
services  from  Quincy,  Massachu- 
setts. 

I.S.O.  began  its  rating  and 
testing  in  November  of  1983  with 
the  final  report  received  in  April 
1984. 

By  dropping  into  a  lower 
classification  premiums  of  some 
mercantile  properties  may  be 
reduced  by  as  much  as  10  percent. 

I  wish  to  thank  all  the 
members  and  the  other  Town 
Departments  for  their  assistance 
and  cooperation  throughout  the 
year. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

William  J,  Toland, 
Fire  Chief

Fire  Department

I  wish  to  thank  the  citizens, 
business  organizations  and  other 
Town  agencies  of  Exeter  for  their 
continued  support  throughout 
the  year. 

We  are  continuing  our  efforts 
through  training  to  meet  the 
demands  for  our  service.  Ad- 
vanced and  speciaUzed  techniques 
and  procedures  are  necessary  to 
deal  with  the  wide  variety  of 
emergency  situations  encoun- 
tered during  the  year. 

The  number  of  motor  vehicle 
accidents  requiring  transport  by 
ambulance  remains  quite  high. 
Automobile  safety  restraints  help 
reduce  the  severity  of  many 
injuries  and  are  required  by  law 
for  children  under  the  age  of  five. 

The  summary  of  services  ren- 
dered for  1984  are  included  in  this 
report. 

Respectfully  submitted, 
John  E.  Carbonneau, 

Lieutenant, 
Emergency  Medical  Services.

Assessor 


For  those  that  may  be  new  to 
the  community,  a  reminder  that 
we  have  veteran,  elderly  and  blind 
exemptions.  Please  contact  the 
Assessor's  Office  for  qualifica- 
tions concerning  eligibility  as  to 
whether  you  can  qualify.  Applica- 
tion must  be  filed  with  this  office 
on  or  before  April  15,  for  the  year 
you  are  applying.  We  also  have 
Current  Use  for  quaUfying  land, 
and  there  is  a  penalty  for  those 
that  build  on  this  type  of  land. 

The  upcoming  year  will  have 
Apollo  on  the  tax  rolls,  along  with 
Standard  Thomson.  Condo- 
miniums continue  to  grow  and  we 
expect  development  in  the  Hamp- 
ton and  Kingston  Road  areas. 


Commercial/Industrial  growth 
will  usually  enhance  our  assess- 
ment rolls.  The  conversion  of 
apartments  to  condominiums  are 


an  excellent  addition,  although 
shortages  in  the  rental  market 
will  cause  problems  for  those  not 
wanting  to  purchase.

Health  Department 

This  is  my  eleventh  yearly 
report  as  Exeter  Health 
Inspector.  My  duties  have  been 
the  same  as  in  previous  years, 
which  includes  inspections  of  all 
businesses  or  establishments  per- 
taining to  food,  including  school 
buses,  public  buildings,  beauty 
parlors,  barbershops,  health 
centers,  day  care  centers,  or  any 
other  places  the  public  utilizes.  I 
have  been  paying  strict  attention 
to  the  grease  trap  problems.  I 
have  had  good  cooperation.  I  find 
that  it  is  very  important  as  it 
effects  the  proper  functioning  of 
our  lagoons. 

I  have  been  inspecting  the  new 
business  buildings  that  are 
coming  into  Exeter. 

I  follow  up  any  call  or 
complaints  made  to  me  involving 
health  conditions.  With  the 
expanding  of  business  and  homes 
in  Exeter,  I  encounter  more  to  do 
as  the  Health  Dept.  officer  on 
Town  Regulations  and  Ordi- 
nances. 

Yours  in  Health, 
J.  Harold  E.  Carbonneau, 
Health  Inspector. 

Planning  Board 

With  an  upturn  in  the  econo- 
my the  Planning  Board  held  42 
meetings  and  conducted  numer- 
ous site  walks  in  1984.  There  were 
50  applicants  before  the  Board  loi 
various  subdivisions  and  site  plan 
reviews.   Recently,  there  have 


been  numerous  meetings  dealing 
with  rezoning  proposals.  At  the 
suggestion  of  the  Board,  the 
Exeter  Hospital  has  been  success- 
ful gaining  permission  to 
construct  a  roadway  to 
Portsmouth  Ave.  which  will 
substantially  alleviate  traffic  con- 
gestion on  surrounding  residen- 
tial streets.  This  enabled  the 
Planning  Board  to  sponsor  a 
rezoning  amendment  which  will 
permit  the  construction  of  a  medi- 
cal services  building,  thereby 
housing  additional  physicians 
and  expanding  several  hospital 
functions. 

As  development  pressure  con- 
tinues, so  will  our  endeavors  to 
analyze  these  impacts  upon  the 
community  and  balance  growth  in 
harmony  with  the  Master  Plan. 

Members  of  the  Board  wish  to 
extend  their  appreciation  for  the 
cooperation  shown  by  developers, 
business  interests,  and  citizens 
for  their  contribution  to  Exeter's 
planning  process.

Swasey  Parkway 

The  trustees  wish  to  thank 
Bob  Eldredge  and  Gary  Lord  for 
their  fine  work  in  caring  for  the 
Parkway. 

The  trustees  have  put  in  effect 
a  new  program  whereby  anyone 
who  wishes  to  use  the  Parkway 
must  obtain  an  application  for 
use  of  the  Swasey  Parkway  facili- 
ties. Three  copies  of  this  request 
must  be  made  out  and  returned  to 
the  trustees.  One  copy  for  the 
person  who  wishes  to  use  the 
Parkway,  one  copy  for  the  Police 
Department  and  one  copy  for  the 
trustees.  These  applications  can 
be  obtained  from  any  trustee. 
Some  people  still  think  the  lawns 
are  roads  and  vandalism  is  a 
major  problem. 

However,  we  will  continue  to 
try  to  keep  the  Parkway  a  place  to 
enjoy  and  be  proud  of. 

Respectfully  submitted, 
Francis  M.  Sinclair 
Douglas  Dicey 
William  Toland. 
Trustees  of  Parkway. 


Housing  Authority 

The  Exeter  Housing  Author- 
ity owns  and  manages  107  apart- 
ment units  in  Exeter:  Squamscott 
View  Apartments  (85  units  for 
elderly).  Linden  Fields  (15  units 
for  families  with  children),  and 
most  recently  completed  in  1984 
the  properties  at  16-20  Auburn 
Street  and  11-13  Portsmouth 
Avenue  (7  units  for  families  with 
children).  EH  As  tenants  pay  29- 
30  percent  of  their  adjusted 
income  for  rent  and  utilities.  The 
EH  A  receives  a  federal  subsidy  to 
provide  the  difference  between 


24 


rental  income  and  operating 
expenses.  In  EHA's  Fiscal  Year 
1984  a  Payment  in  Lieu  of  Taxes 
of  $8,636.45  was  made  to  the 
Town  of  Exeter,  28  percent  more 
than  in  1983.  All  EHA  owned 
apartments  are  occupied  and  eli- 
gible applicants  are  selected  from 
a  waiting  list  as  vacancies  occur. 

Housing  Assistance  Pay- 
ments made  via  the  Section  8 
Existing  Housing  Program 
increased  by  6  percent  to 
$351,550.00.  Through  this 
federally  funded  program  the 
EHA  pays  private  landlords  the 
difference  between  30  percent  of  a 
participating  tenant's  monthly 
income  and  the  cost  of  an  apart- 
ment's rent  and  utilities.  During 
1984  the  EHA  was  granted  addi- 
tional funding  to  increase 
assistance  from  151  to  159 
apartments.  The  EHA  assists 
125  elderly /handicapped  house- 
holds and  34  families  with  chil- 
dren through  this  Program. 

There  were  no  changes  in  the 
Board  of  Commissioners  or  the 
staff  during  1984. 

The  EHA  will  continue  to 
strive  to  provide  affordable  safe, 
decent  and  sanitary  housing  to 
Exeter's  lower  income  residents 
and  all  interested  in  our 
Programs  are  invited  to  contact 
the  office  at  277  Water  Street, 
778-8110.

Police  Department 

In  my  first  report  to  the  citi- 
zens of  Exeter,  I  am  pleased  to 
present  the  activities  of  the  PoUce 
Department  for  calendar  year 
1984. 

We  are  proud  to  report  that 
the  incidents  of  reportable  crime 
have  decreased  in  the  Town  of 
Exeter  over  the  past  five  years. 

We  have  investigated  fewer 
personal  and  property  crimes 
over  the  past  five  consecutive 
years.  During  1984,  we  recovered 
33  percent  of  the  property  stolen 
and  have  a  resolution  rate  of 
about  10  percent  in  the  major 
crime  area,  5  percent  below  the 
national  average,  however  have 
resolved  45  percent  of  all  other 
criminal  offenses. 

I  would  like  to  emphasize  that 
a  police  department  is  no  better 
than  the  community  in  which  it 
serves.  Members  of  the  police 
department  work  very  hard  for 
the  community  under  very  stress- 
ful conditions,  because  we  know 
that  our  community  supports  us 
in  our  endeavor  to  suppress 
crime.  We  by  no  means  can  do  the 
job  alone.  We  feel  that  you,  the 
citizen,  have  helped  us  greatly  in 
our  daily  task.  Your  awareness 
and  cooperation  in  crime 
reporting  and  assistance  as  court 
witnesses  is  all  part  of  the  total 
commitment  for  a  free  society. 
The  greater  the  support,  the  more 
effective  we  are. 

The  tragic  disappearance  of 
one  of  our  young  children, 
Tammy  Belanger,  has  been  a  test 
of  community  support  and  police 
vigilance.  This  investigation  has 
certainly  been  the  most  complex 
and  demanding  in  recent  Exeter 


history  and  still  requires  an 
enormous  amount  of  total  com- 
mitment. As  a  result,  a  Police 
Task  Force  has  been  assembled 
and  continues  to  work  full  time  on 
this  case  at  the  time  of  this 
report.  The  Task  Force  includes 
members  of  the  Exeter  Police 
Department,  New  Hampshire 
State  Police  and  the  Federal 
Bureau  of  Investigation.  We  have 
also  been  very  fortunate  to  have 
police  officers  from  other  com- 
munities assisting  us  full  time 
since  the  beginning  of  this  inves- 
tigation, not  to  mention  the  hun- 
dreds of  volunteers  and  personnel 
from  the  Exeter  Fire  Department. 

Of  course,  the  police  depart- 
ment continues  to  work  in  many 
other  areas  as  indicated  at  the 
end  of  this  report.  We  commit 
ourselves  to  serving  you  and 
welcome  your  questions  and 
interest  in  the  department. 

I  wish  to  thank  all  members  of 
the  Police  Department  and  all 
other  Town  agencies  for  their 
cooperation  and  assistance 
throughout  the  year. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Frank  S.  Caracciolo, 
Chief  of  Police.

Visiting  Nurse 
Association 


1984  marked  the  17th  year 
that  the  Exeter  Area  Visiting 
Nurse  Association  has  provided 
professional  and  caring  health 
services  to  the  residents  of  the 
Exeter  area.  From  1958  to  mid 
1967  the  Exeter  VNA  employed 
one  nurse  who  visited  within  the 
town  of  Exeter  only.  Seventeen 
years  later,  the  Exeter  Area  VNA 
is  providing  skilled  and 
therapeutic  services  to  a 
population  of  over  40,000  in  12 
towns.  The  caring  and  the 
warmth  are  still  very  much 
evident  as  the  staff  provides 
many  more  services  with  up-to- 
date  skills  and  competence.  The 
Agency  has  increased  from  one 
nurse  to  a  staff  of  31,  including 
therapists,  nutritionists, 
physicians  and  nurse  specialists. 

16,352  units  of  service  were 
provided  by  EAVNA  staff  during 
1984,  seven  days  a  week  and  24 
hours  a  day.  The  EAVNA 
provides  Home  Care  today  that 
meets   the   increased   and   fre- 


quently technical  needs  of  its 
clientele  as  hospitals  are 
discharging  patients  "quicker 
and  sicker."  People  are  now  in 
need  of  health  services  at  home 
that  before  were  thought  to  be 
only  possible  in  a  hospital.  The 
EAVNA  staff  is  skilled  and 
current  in  its  knowledge  and 
abilities. 

The  services  provided  in  1984 
by  programs  are: 

CARE  OF  THE  SICK  -  12,343 
visits  —  These  include  home 
and  office  visits  by  nurses, 
aides  and  therapists. 

MATERNAL  AND  CHILD 
HEALTH  -  1.474  units  of 
service  —  includes  home  visits 
and  clinic  services. 

ADULT  HEALTH  -  2,535  units 
of  service  —  includes  Blood 
Pressure  Screenings,  Foot 
Care,  Sugar  and  Iron,  Health 
Risk  Appraisals,  Diptheria 
and  Tetanus,  Flu  Protection, 
Health  Teaching  and  Nursing 
Assessments. 

The  Agency  continues  to  pro- 
vide a  clinical  setting  for  Home 


Health  to  students  from  area 
schools  and  universities. 

The  shift  of  health  care  from 
hospitals  to  home  and  commun- 
ity, which  began  a  few  years  ago, 
is  proving  to  be  cost  effective  and 
preferred  by  many.

black  with  a  few  accounts  in  the 
red,  but,  the  total  budget  is  on 
line.  In  1984  we  brought  in  more 
than  one  hundred  and  fifteen 
thousand  dollars  to  help  offset 
the  requested  amount  from  the 
town. 

The  programs  were  well 
received  with  good  attendance 
in  most  of  the  activities  from 
sports,  puppetry,  special  events, 
and  the  arts.  A  new  idea  of  busing 
students  to  a  Play  Camp  in  1984 
met  with  great  response  requiring 
the  department  to  add  a  staff 
member  and  an  extra  bus.  Now 
that  the  idea  has  been  tested  we 
have  plans  to  provide  more  of  this 
type  of  activity  and  supervision. 
The  program  is  offered  for  eight 
weeks  at  the  Recreation  Park  on 
the  Hampton  Road  Monday 
through  Friday  late  June  through 
mid-August.  The  program, 
format  was  patterned  after  our 
daycamp  and  combined  the  best 
program  ideas  from  our  summer 
playground  and  our  daycamp  and 
added  more  activities  and  special 
events. 

One  highUght  of  the  year  was 
the  vote  of  you  the  people  of 
Exeter  to  renovate  the  old  fire 
house  next  to  the  Recreation 
Center  to  be  used  as  a  Senior 
Citizens  Center  with  the 
completion  date  of  early  May 
1985.  With  this  new  facility,  we 
hope  to  be  able  to  serve  our  senior 
citizens  better  and  provide  more 
activities  and  meals  on  a  daily 
basis.  The  center  will  also  provide 
a  much  needed  hall  for  groups  to 
meet  here  in  Exeter.  We  thank 
you  for  your  support  on  this  pro- 
ject. 

With  the  retirement  of  Don 
Chick,  our  Town  Manager,  we 
have  lost  one  of  the  best 
supporters       of       not       only 


Recreation,  but,  of  the  senior 
citizens.  He  was  always  there  to 
fight  to  provide  you  the  citizens 
of  Exeter  with  the  best  programs 
and  facilities  that  the  budget 
would  allow.  Don  will  be  missed 
not  only  for  his  support,  but,  for 
his  love  of  his  fellow  man.  He  was 
a  people  oriented  Town  Manager, 
he  loved  people  and  did  his  best  to 
understand  what  they  were 
trying  to  accomplish.  We  wish 
Don  and  Shirley  continued  good 
health  in  their  retirement  in 
Florida. 

What  do  we  look  for  in  1985? 
We  not  only  look  for  you  to 
continue  your  support,  but,  to  get 
you  involved  in  Recreation  here  in 
Exeter.  Our  profession's  national 
slogan  is  and  has  been  for  the  last 
five  years,  "LIFE  BE  IN  IT," 
and  we  believe  in  this  program 
and  want  you  to  join  us  in  making 
your  free  hours  more  enjoyable  as 
a  participant  or  volunteer  in  any 
number  of  activities. 

We  estimate  that  more  than 
60  percent  of  the  residents  here  in 
Exeter  have  participated  in  one  or 
more  of  our  activities  from  trips 
and  sports,  to  crafts,  and  the  arts 
including  concerts,  and  other 
organized  recreation  of  one  form 
or  another.  We  would  like  in  1985 
to  make  that  figure  go  to  75 
percent  or  more.  We  are  always 
open  to  new  ideas  and  need  your 
input  to  make  the  programs  your 
programs.  We  are  here  to  provide 
the  best  we  can  within  our 
budget.  Come  share  your  ideas 
with  us. 

I  would  like  to  thank  the 
people  who  supported  me  during 
my  illness  last  spring.  Your 
support  of  the  department  made 
my  difficult  time  easier.  Thanks 


again  for  your  love  and  support 
expressed  to  me. 

Yours  in  Recreation, 
Douglas  E.  Dicey,

1984  has  been  very  busy  and  it 
certainly  went  out  with  a  bang 
when  the  furnace  blew  up.  We've 
had  more  programs  than  ever  in 
the  children's  department,  thanks 
to  Barbara  Young  and  her  staff. 
They  have  run  at  least  three  story 
hours  a  week  plus  a  Wednesday 
after  school  craft  program,  plus 
extras  such  as  the  Alice  in 
Wonderland  Birthday  party  and 
the  big  summer  reading  program 
and  floats  in  all  the  town  parades. 

In  the  adult  section  I  was  a  bit 
skeptical  at  first  of  running  the 
Council  on  the  Humanities  spon- 
sored "1984"  series  but  a 
surprising  number  of  people  came 
out  on  some  bitterly  cold  nights 
to  hear  and  take  part  in  a  group  of 
really  good  lecture-discussions. 

Staff  changes,  although  I  wish 
it  wouldn't.  Shirley  Brunell 
followed  her  husband  out  to 
Michigan  last  summer  and  was 
replaced  by  Judy  Schultz,  who 
has  worked  here  before.  And 
Nancy  Merrill  is  no  longer  at  the 
desk;  she's  down  in  the  basement 
working  on  the  town  history.  I 
know  we  need  a  new  town  history 
but  we  all  miss  Nancy. 

We  have  a  little  computer  of 
our  own  now.  It  printed  all  the 
mailing  labels  for  our  Christmas 
letter,  which  doesn't  sound  like 
much,  but  it  took  most  of  the  year 
to   type   everybody's    name   and 


29 


address  into  the  computer's 
memory.  This  year  it  can  learn 
some  new  tricks,  such  as  keeping 
track  of  who  has  what  overdue.  It 
can  already  tap  into  the  big  com- 
puter at  the  state  Hbrary,  and 
once  their  system  goes  onUne  we 
will  be  able  to  do  interlibrary  loan 
really  fast,  as  opposed  to  the 
months  it  seems  to  take  now. 

We've  done  a  merciless 
weeding:  about  a  quarter  of  the 
fiction  went  into  the  big  sidewalk- 
sale  booksale  in  front  of  the  town 
hall,  where  we  made  almost 
$400.  And  we  added  Books  on 
Tape,  so  that  you  don't  have  to 
qualify  as  disabled  to  enjoy  being 
read  to. 

The  building  committee  is 
gearing  up  for  another  try,  under 
Andrew  Carnegie.  This  time  we 
are  looking  at  the  old  Clemson 
plot  by  the  string  bridge,  and  it 
would  be  a  lovely  site  right  over 
the  falls.  Of  course  a  new  building 
with  lots  of  room  will,  be  a  lovely 
sight  anywhere. 

As  usual  we  get  by  with  help 
from  our  friends.  Marjorie  Rowell 
has  been  carrying  books  and  films 
and  tapes  to  the  nursing  homes 
and  homebound  people:  that  cir- 
culation has  definitely  increased. 
Anne  Rogers  has  been  coming  in 
to  type  and  tape  and  paste.  Sue 
Oleson  has  been  reading  along  the 
shelves  to  keep  the  books  in  order 
while  her  daughter  was  at  story 
hour. 

But  the  people  who  did  the 
most  under  the  worst  conditions 
were  Tom  and  Jeff  Merrill,  who 
rehung  our  monster  front  door 
after  a  hinge  broke.  We  make  do 
with  lots  of  things,  but  really,  we 
have  to  have  a  front  door. 

Respectfully  submitted, 
F'amela  Gjettum, 
Librarian.

Conservation 
Connnnission 

The  Conservation  Commis- 
sion warmly  welcomes  new  mem- 
bers David  Weber  and  Helen 
Winebaum  and  sadly  accepts  the 
resignations  of  Bruce  Ellis  and 
Sheila  Duff. 

Park  expansion  and  increased 
open  space  for  the  people  of 
Exeter  highlighted  the  Conserva- 
tion Commission's  1984  calendar. 
In  July,  Eleanor  Manix  Dawson  of 
Hampton  (formerly  of  Exeter) 
deeded  approximately  175  acres 
of  land  to  the  Conservation  Com- 
mission for  wildlife  preservation 
and  passive  recreation.  Sixty  of 
those  acres  were  purchased  by  the 
Commission  using  funds  from  its 
land  acquisition  account  appro- 
priated by  the  town  in  1978.  The 
purchase  was  desired  in  order  to 
increase  the  size  of  Henderson 
Swasey  Park  and  protect  its 
bounds.  The  remaining  115  acres 
were  Mrs.  Dawson's  gift  to  the 
people  of  F]xeter.  Thirty  of  these 
acres  are  located  in  the  town  of 
Brentwood  and  are  in  the  process 
of  being  turned  over  to  that 
town's  Conservation  Commission 
under  a  conservation  covenant 
guaranteeing  the  land  shall  be 
permanently  protected  from 
development.  The  balance  of  this 
extraordinary  gift  is  composed  of 
various  sized  parcels  located  in 
the  Oaklands  which  the  Commis- 
sion hopes  will  eventually  link 
into  a  permanent,  protective 
greenbelt  around  the  town.  The 
Commission  salutes  Eleanor 
Manix  Dawson  for  her 
generosity,  Mr.  Benjamin  Dagos- 
tino,  Sr.  for  expediting  the  trans- 
action and  foregoing  the  realtor 
commission    and    Mr.    Charles 


30 


Tucker  whose  legal  services  were 
also  donated. 

The  month  of  July  also  saw 
the  acquisition  of  a  deed  to  30.39 
acres  of  land  off  Hampton  Falls 
Road  known  as  the  Enwright 
property.  This  land  encompasses 
a  12  acre  area  classified  as  one  of 
the  town's  valuable  wetlands 
deserving  protection. 

One  of  the  major  goals  of  the 
Conservation  Commission  is  the 
fostering  of  public  awareness  of 
ecological/environmental  con- 
cerns through  education.  To  that 
end  the  Commission  traditionally 
sponsors  two  Junior  High  School 
students  to  attend  the  Society  for 
the  Protection  of  New  Hampshire 
Forests'  conservation  camp.  This 
year  David  Ouellet,  Jr.  and 
Dana  Anderson  were  our 
sponsored  campers.  Their 
personal  reports  to  the 
Commission  of  their  camping 
experience  were  greatly  appre- 
ciated. The  Commission  is  proud 
of  their  achievements  and  mature 
observations. 

In  another  educational  endea- 
vor funded  by  the  Commission 
and  arranged  by  David  Weber,  an 
Audubon  program  entitled  "Wild 
About  Mammals  "  was  presented 
to  Exeter  Elementary  School 
pupils.  The  Commission  also 
donated  money  to  the  sponsors  of 
Forest  Field  Days,  a  hands-on 
workshop  for  4th,  5th  and  6th 
grade  pupils,  held  this  October  in 
Durham.  This  was  acclaimed  a 
resounding  success  by  the 
approximately  1,500  students 
and  teachers  who  attended  the 
Lwu  day  event.  In  an  eftoi  i  lu 
continue  its  own  environmental 
education  the  Commission  sent 
one  representative  to  a  two  day 
conference  on  acid  rain  and  three 
representatives  to  the  annual 


New  Hampshire  Association  of 
Conservation  Commissions  con- 
ference. The  topic  of  this  confer- 
ence was  the  protection  of  ground 
water  in  New  Hampshire. 

The  tree  planting  program 
continues  to  be  a  major  focus  for 
the  Commission.  This  year  with 
the  help  of  Exeter's  Tree  War- 
den, Richard  Niebling,  and  the 
Highway  Department,  20  new 
shade  trees  grace  our  streets. 

Henderson  Swasey  Park  is 
benefiting  from  the  work  of  the 
Vocational  Educational  School 
Forestry  students  under  the 
guidance  of  teacher  Andy  Ander- 
son. One  of  their  larger  projects 
this  year  has  been  the  improve- 
ment of  the  fire  road.  They  have 
brushed  out  both  sides  of  the  road 
from  the  gas  line  toward  Fort 
Rock  for  a  distance  of  about  1,200 
feet,  made  wider  spots  at  inter- 
vals to  facilitate  turning  around, 
reset  one  culvert  and  replaced 
another  and  plan  to  fill  one  low 
spot  with  gravel. 

At  the  request  of  the  Commis- 
sion, Roger  Sloan  has  undertaken 
the  long  overdue  job  of  remarking 
the  bounds  of  Henderson  Swasey 
Park  and  the  new  Manix  Dawson 
land. 

This  has  been  a  very  active, 
very  rewarding  year  for  the  Com- 
mission, and  we  would  like  to 
thank  everyone  who  has  helped  us 
and  made  our  various  projects 
possible.

Historic  District 
Commission 

The  Historic  District 
Commission  is  responsible  for 
reviewing  requests  for  changes 
within  the  Front  Street  and 
Downtown  historic  district  for 
compliance  to  the  district 
ordinances.  The  Commission 
presently  consists  of  six  members 
appointed  by  the  selectmen.  One 
selectman  also  acts  as  an  addi- 
tional member  of  the  board. 

During  1984  the  Commission 


31 


has  reviewed  and  evaluated 
applications  for  changes  in 
existing  facades,  site  features, 
new  construction,  changes  to 
existing  signage  and  new  signs  to 
be  erected  within  the  historic 
districts.  The  Commission  has 
also  provided  advice  and 
guidance  to  individuals  and 
businesses  seeking  information 
regarding  general  maintenance 
and  preservation  measures 
appropriate  to  their  specific 
structures. 

The  Commission  meets  the 
third  Tuesday  of  every  month  at 
the  Town  Offices.  All  meetings 
are  open  to  the  public  and  citizen 
participation  and  input  is 
encouraged.

Zoning  Board 
of  Adjustment 

The  Board  convened  for  14 
public  meetings  in  1984.  at  which 
time  55  petitions  for  variance  or 
special  exceptions  were  hoard.  Of 
the  31  variance  requests.  19  were 
approved  and  18  of  24  special 
exceptions  were  approved. 

Robert  Deshaies  was  recently 
appointed  by  the  Selectmen  to 
complete  the  term  of  Francis 
Doherty.  who  resigned. 

The  Board  ni  Adjustment  sits 
as  a  quasi-judicial  body  to  hear 
appeals  such  Jis  \  ariances  when  it 
is     alleged      limt      llie      sirirt 


enforcement  of  the  ordinance 
creates  an  unique  hardship  when 
applied  to  the  owners  land.  A 
special  exception  may  permit  a 
use  in  a  zone  upon  a  finding  by 
the  Board  that  all  conditions  of 
the  zoning  ordinance  have  been 
complied  with. 

Board  of  Adjustment  hearings 
are  scheduled  on  the  first 
Tuesday  of  each  month  at  7:00 
p.m.  in  the  Nowak  Room. 
Applications  for  appeals  are  due 
in  the  planning  office  two  weeks 
prior  to  a  scheduled  hearing.

Veterans'  Council 

Since  I  became  Commander  of 
the  Disabled  American  Veterans 
of  Chapter  13  here  in  Exeter, 
there  has  been  no  active 
Veteran's  Council.  At  present.  1 
am  involved  in  recruiting  active 
members  for  our  Chapter  with 
some  success,  but  the  interest  of 
Veterans  getting  involved  is  at  an 
all  time  low.  Unless  we  can 
organize  an  active  Council  of  all 
Veteran's  Organizations  and 
strive  to  stimulate  interest  and 
pride  that  Veterans  should  have, 
some  organizations  will  lose  their 
charter  and  be  abolished. 

1  found  that  cooperation  from 
some  organizations  to  organize 
Veteran's  and  Memorial  Day 
parades  and  services  is  not 
interested  in  helping  even  if  they 


are  paid,  such  as  the  Exeter  High 
School  Band,  the  local  Brass 
Band,  and  Pease  Air  Force  Band. 

The  Town  of  P^xeter  has 
treated  me  very  well  during  times 
of  hardship  and  assisted  me  finan- 
cially when  my  Veteran's  benefits 
were  being  reviewed.  1  owe  the 
Town  of  Exeter  and  would  like  to 
see  that  the  Town  has  the  proper 
parades  and  services  on  those 
special  days  during  each  year 
honoring  Veterans  who  gave  their 
lives  for  this  Country,  and  those 
that  served  so  honorably  from 
World  War  I  through  the  Viet 
Nam  conflict. 

During  1985,  I  will  try  to 
organize  an  active  Veteran's 
Council.  I  would  also  like  some 
office  space  to  offer  counselling 
and  assistance  to  Veterans  a  few 
hours  per  week.  I  would  be  willing 
to  man  the  office  myself,  but  will 
accept  help  from  other  veterans 
organizations. 

The  amount  budgeted  for  the 
Veteran's  Council  has  been  more 
than  enough  because  very  little 
was  spent.  I  hope  the  Town  will 
continue  to  allot  money  for  our 
use.  and  hope  to  use  it  in  1985. 

Sincerely, 
SalvatoreCollela.  Sr.. 
Commander  —  DA  V,  Chapter  12. 

Building  Inspector 

Building  construction  increased 
in  1984.  Interest  rates  were  favor- 
able and  there  was  a  built  up  de- 
mand for  new  homes,  apartments 
and  renovations.  People  want  to 
live  in  F^xeter.  Permits  were 
is.sued  in  the  amount  of  $15,757,843. 
which  generated  $60,945.37  in 
revenue  for  the  town.  The  Build- 
ing Inspector's  office.  Fire  Depart- 
ment and  Board  of  Health  all  in- 


32 


teract  with  each  other.  Many 
times  we  visit  sites  together  to 
save  duplication  of  effort. 

The  B.O.C.A.  Code  came  into 
effect  just  in  time  for  the  largest 
project  of  the  year  —  the  Apollo 
Computer  Plant.  The  building  is 
located  in  two  towns,  Exeter  and 
Stratham,  with  222,567  sq.  ft.  in 
Exeter  and  38,513  sq.  ft.  in  Strat- 
ham. The  major  building 
components  are  steel,  concrete 
and  bricks. 

In  November  and  December 
we  had  to  use  the  Merit  System  of 
our  Growth  Control  Ordinance. 
The  Planning  Board  is  reviewing 
the  Ordinance  and  is  making 
recommendations. 

My  sincere  thanks  is  given  to 
the  citizens  of  Exeter  for  allowing 


me  to  serve  as  your  Building  In- 
spector. 

Respectfully  submitted, 
E.  Melvin  Bowley, 
Building  Inspector.

Council  on  Aging 

The  year  1984  proved  to  be 
one  of  joy  and  excitement  as  the 
voters  nf  Exeter  at  a  special 
September  meeting  approved  one- 
hundred  and  twenty  thousand 


33 


dollars  from  surplus  funds  to  be 
used  to  renovate  the  old  fire 
station  next  to  the  Recreation 
Center  to  he  used  for  a  Senior 
Citizens'  Center.  The  money 
added  to  the  1984  Town  Meeting 
vote  of  twenty  thousand  dollars 
from  Revenue  Sharing  funds  and 
donations  through  the  Kxeter 
Senior  Citizens  Trust  Fund  will 
enable  us  to,  we  hope,  meet  the 
needs  of  the  seniors  here  in 
Exeter  for  a  number  of  years.  The 
center  is  a  dream  of  many  of  our 
seniors  and  a  goal  set  by  the  Exe- 
ter Council  On  Aging  many  years 
ago.  The  Hoard  of  Selectmen 
appointed  a  committee  made  up 
of  Selectman  Sherman  Chester. 
Town  Manager  Thomas  Powers 
and  Council  On  Aging  Chairman 
Doug  Dicey  to  oversee  the  reno- 
vations. The  building  is  expected 
to  be  completed  by  late  April  or 
early  May  of  198.S.  There  is  still  a 
need  for  funds  to  help  furnish  the 
building.  Some  people  have 
donated  money  for  equipment, 
curtains,  and  other  items  that  will 
be  needed  once  the  building  is 
completed. 

To  the  seniors  here  in  Exeter, 
the  council  is  pleased  to 
announce  that  we  signed  another 
discount  taxi  contract  with  the 
Exeter  Taxi  Service  for  1985  with 
help  from  COAST  Cooperative 
Alliance  for  Seacoast  Transpor- 
tation, to  provide  ten  thousand, 
eight  hundred  discount  rides  for 
senior  citizens  and  the  general 
public.  This  will  mark  the 
eleventh  year  the  council  has 
operated  the  discount  taxi  pro- 
gram. 

There  arc  many  senior  adulls 
and  youngi  1  people  here  in  Exeter 
who  give  hundreds  of  hours 
volunteering  their  services  to  help 


the  F-xeter  Senior  Citizens,  we 
thank  them  all. 

Our  monthly  newsletter  has 
grown  to  more  than  fifteen 
hundred  copies  each  month!  This 
newsletter  provides  you  with 
information  on  taxes,  special 
events  and  a  joke  or  two  now  and 
then.  To  Vernon,  keep  up  the 
good  work. 

A  special  thank  you  to  the 
volunteers  who  sell  taxi  tickets 
here  at  the  center  weekly. 

Respectfully  submitted.

Welfare 


Direct  relief  is  to  assist 
persons  whose  income  is  not 
sufficient  to  maintain  a  decent 
standard  of  living.  P^mergency 
assistance  is  available  only  on  a 
temporary  basis  and.  due  to  a 
continuing  low  unemployment 
rate,  this  portion  of  the  budget 
has  decreased  slightly. 

In  the  State  of  New 
Hampshire,  each  town  pays  a 
share  of  costs  for  eligible  persons 
receiving  state  assistance  or 
confined  to  nursing  homes.  In 
.January  of   1984.  there  wer"  2.') 


recipients  and  at  year's  end  23 
recipients. 

Lowered  child  placement  costs 
continued  in  1984.  The  town  is 
responsible  for  the  costs  of  all 
children  in  placement  if  the 
parents  of  said  child  ha\e  lived  in 
that  town  for  a  year. 

Many  costly  out  of  home 
placements  can  and  have  been 
avoided  through  use  of  the 
Mediation  Program. 

Overall,  it  has  been  a  good 
year  and  I  look  forward  to  more 
gains  in  1985. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Maureen  Barrows, 
Welfare  Director. 


Old  Home  Day 

There  was  a  threat  of  rain,  a 
wedding  going  on  down  the 
street,  the  band  that  was  to  lead 
the  way  was  late,  but  the  Old 
Home  Day  Parade  finally  got 
underway  at  1:30  p.m.  Each  year 
the  number  of  people  involved 
grows;  this  year  was  no 
exception.  Many  organizations 
and  groups  entered  floats, 
surrounding  towns  graciously 
donated  their  fire  trucks.  The 
antique  cars  were  there,  as  well  as 
motorcycles,  bikes,  bands,  politi- 
cians (it  was  an  election  yearl,  and 
kids  who  love  to  be  in  parades.  As 
always  it  lined  up  at  Lincoln 
Street  School,  went  down  Front 
Street,  down  Water  Street,  and 
into  Swasey  Parkway. 

Roco  the  Clown,  who  joined  us 
for  the  parade,  led  a  toddler- 
parent  fitness  group  in  the 
Parkway  starting  off  the 
afternoon  fun.  The  Fire  Depart- 
ment  put  on  a  demonstration. 


34 


magic  tricks  filled  the  afternoon's 
air,  the  Reactions  entertained 
with  their  rock  sounds,  and  Roco 
the  Clown  came  back  encouraging 
children  of  all  ages  to  join  him  in 
another  fitness  fun  session  before 
dinner. 

During  the  afternoon  the 
Exeter  Lions  manned  their 
dunking  booth,  and  the  Jaycees 
came  through  again  by  running 
the  games. 

Thanks  to  the  PEA  kitchen 
staff  we  once  again  had  a 
delicious  picnic  supper  of  hot 
dogs,  hamburgers,  corn  on  the 
cob,  chips,  cookies,  coffee  or  soda. 
While  supper  was  served  by  the 
Exeter  Lioness,  Lions,  and 
friends,  the  Exeter  Brass  Band 
gave  their  first  concert  of  the 
season  and  the  Exeter  Minstrels 
led  a  sing-along.  Then  record 
albums  donated  by  WERZ  were 
given  away,  and  awards  and 
prizes  were  passed  out  to  parade 
entries  and  afternoon  game 
winners. 

At  7:00  p.m.  NHAAGS  gave 
a  gymnastics  demonstration, 
Julie  Lunardo's  Studio  of  the 
Dance  performed,  and  Newburg 
gave  us  a  marvelous  show.  The 
evening  finished  with  a  fireworks 
display. 

None  of  this  could  have  been 
accomplished  without  the  help 
and  support  of  all  the  towns- 
people. Special  thanks  go  to  all 
the  firms  who  loaned  trucks  for 
the  parade.  Bob  Strout,  the 
Highway  Dept.,  the  Rec.  Dept.,

Mosquito  Control 

The  mosquito  control  pro- 
gram serves  Exeter,  Hampton 
Falls,  Newfields,  and  Stratham, 
and  is  a  municipally  run  and 
owned  operation.  The  goal  of  the 
program  for  1985  like  1984  and 
the  years  before  is  to  use 
mosqdito  surveillance  techniques 
to  obtain  the  most  reduction  with 
the  least  amount  of  insecticides. 
It  is  necessary  to  keep 
mosquitoes  from  soaring  in 
numbers  (they  still  do  at  times) 
because  of  the  annoyance  that 
affects  what  people  can  do  and 
because  of  the  dog  heartworm 
and  encephalitis  virus  that  can  be 
transmitted  more  at  high  mosqui- 
to population  levels. 

As  the  other  years,  all  insecti- 
cides used  have  been  extensively 
researched  to  be  shown  effective 
and  safe  in  our  applications  and 
are  approved  for  use  by  the  State 
Pesticide  Control  Board. 

Eastern  equine  encephalitis 
(EEE)  has  not  caused  an  upset  in 
New  Hampshire  since  it  was 
responsible  for  the  death  of  9 
horses  in  1982  (70  in  1973). 
Human  incidents  continue  to 
pop  up  in  Massachusetts  that 
show  how  Rockingham  County  is 
not  free  from  danger.  Mosquito 
survey  findings  are  shared  with 
the  State  Epidemiologist  for  this 
reason  and  disease  vector 
populations  are  watched  closely. 


A  saltmarsh  where  fish  can 
prosper  at  the  expense  of 
mosquito  larvae  is  a  goal  of  the 
future  when  repeated  spray 
applications  would  no  longer  be 
needed  and  money  would  be 
saved  on  a  long  term  basis. 
Cooperation  will  be  made  with  the 
State  and  UNH  through  the 
Jackson  Estuarine  Laboratory  in 
1985  as  the  technique  known  as 
open  marsh  water  management  is 
field  tested  on  a  limited  basis. 
Federal  and  State  Grants  are 
being  searched  out  to  save  Town 
money  to  further  assist  this  work. 

Field  trials  were  done  in  1984 
to  test  the  effectiveness  of  the 
street  fogger  which  will  be 
repeated  in  1985  to  further 
measure  efficiency.  A  field 
experiment  was  performed  with  a 
biological  bacterial  insecticide  on 
saltmarsh  mosquito  larvae  and  a 
more  extensive  use  of  the  bacteria 
is  planned  for  1985.  The 
bacterium  is  the  same  species 
used  for  the  gypsy  moth,  spruce 
bud  worm,  and  a  number  of 
garden  pests. 

1984  was  a  difficult  year  for 
the  program  because  the  salt- 
marshes  hatched  many 
mosquitoes  along  with  freshwater 
breeding  sites  that  did  the  same. 
Early  in  April  our  crew  of  3  was 
Out  surveying  and  treating  the 
aquatic  mosquito  larvae  that 
hatched  in  snow-melt  pools.  The 
early  hatching  species  are 
responsible  for  a  surge  of 
mosquitoes  "on  the  wing"  in  late 
May  and  early  June.  Cool  spring 
weather  that  causes  slow 
development  allows  over  a  month 
to  treat  the  early  brood,  but 
hatching  into  the  same  areas  after 
summer  rains  results  in  quick 
growth  in  the  heat  and  only  a 
week     may     be     available     to 


35 


larvicide.  That  is  what  happened 
to  us  in  1984  and  many  of  the 
freshwater  mosquitoes  escaped. 
At  the  same  time  the  tidal 
marshes  were  "producing"  but 
control  there  was  accomplished 
since  the  viciousness  and  the  long 
flight  range  of  the  saltmarsh 
mosquitoes  warranted  high 
priority  be  given.  Adulticiding 
with  the  spray  truck  is  for  a 
backup  and  supplement  and 
control  by  this  means  is  limited 
compared  to  larviciding. 

Goals  probably  beyond  1985 
are  to  set  greenhead  fly  traps 
around  the  saltmarshes,  and  to 
look  into  how  extensive  the 
source  is  of  black  flies,  that  is 
whether  pestiferous  species  are 
produced  in  a  limited,  treatable 
area  in  the  Town  or  are  produced 
in  many  streams.  Control  could 


be  to  sweep  free  the  attached 
larvae  or  to  use  the  bacterial 
insecticide.  Another  goal  is  to 
find  out  how  to  deal  with  the 
mosquito  species  found  in 
permanent  swamp  situations 
attached  to  acquatic  plant  roots. 
A  mosquito  problem  around  a 
household  can  be  caused  by  a 
small  easy  to  prevent  place. 
Almost  anything  that  holds 
water  such  as  a  bird  bath  or 
bucket  is  an  example.  One  should 
change  the  water  weekly  or  when 
the  wiggly  larvae  appear 
throughout  the  summer.  Buckets 
should  be  kept  inside  or  upside 
down  and  abandoned  tires  should 
be  filled  with  soil.  If  a  small 
ground  depression  near  a  home 
holds  water,  it  can  be  filled  with 
soil  or  with  raked  leaves  that  can 
be   composted    there;    a   drain 


should  not  be  obstructed  from  an 
accumulated  body  of  standing 
water.  A  resident  can  sometimes 
do  a  lot  to  control  the  mosquitoes 
that  have  the  greatest  effect  on 
him  or  herself. 

If  mosquitoes  become 
intolerable,  please  leave  word  at 
the  Exeter  Town  Office  building 
(where  my  office  is)  so  we  can 
better  target  control  efforts. 

The  commissions  and  I  wish 

to    thank    everyone    for    their 

cooperation    and    support.    To 

control  the  mosquito  is  quite  an 

involved  process,  and  to  work 

together      through      scientific 

methods  and  common  sense  is 

how    we    can    lower    mosquito 

populations  safely  and  efficiently. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

Mark  Weaver, 

Supervisor.
