O’Brien February 8, 1927 - September 25, 2020 Former Town of Barnstable DPW Superintendent and Special Assistant to the Town Manager Bob O’Brien passed away on September 25, 2020. Bob lived a life of public service. He had a long and distinguished career with the Coast Guard where he steadily moved up in the ranks from Ensign to Captain and retired in 1981. A graduate of Boston College, he served as a USCG Seaman in WWII. Bob’s last post before retiring in 1981 was that of chief of staff and deputy commander of the USCG’s First District, the New England District. His responsibilities included supervising district staff and major field activities such as search and rescue, commercial vessel safety and various other responsibilities. He was also deputy director of reserve personnel, chief plans and programs officer and chief budget officer during a 23-year land career that followed service as commanding officer aboard various Coast Guard cutters. Immediately following his retirement, Bob accepted a position as Supervisory Administrative Assistant of DPW for the Town of Barnstable. He was promoted to DPW Superintendent and after a few years decided he would prefer to spend more time with his family and requested that he transfer to the job of Assistant DPW Superintendent. He retired from the Town of Barnstable in 1999 and was hired in 2000 as Special Assistant to the Town Manager and ultimately retired from the Town of Barnstable in 2018. Bob played a critical role in all aspects of the local government in the Town of Barnstable including its organizational structure, financial management and emergency response program, to name of few areas. Bob served on the Steamship Authority Board of Governors for the Town of Barnstable, and as Board chairman for some of those years for 25 years, until 2016. He was instrumental in the transformation of the Steamship Authority fleet including vessel construction, vessel modification and refurbishment projects. Bob also played a critical role in the Authority’s capital projects in Hyannis, including reconstruction of the Hyannis terminal and slip improvements. Bob served on the Barnstable Municipal Airport Commission board for 13 years and retired in 2017. Bob was a charter member of the Coast Guard Heritage Museum in Barnstable, MA which opened in 2005. Pictured above Bob O’Brien with now Town Manager Mark Ells on July 19, 2010 at the groundbreaking ceremony for the new terminal and tower at Barnstable Municipal Airport and with his beloved late wife Susie on at the June 10, 2016 Commissioning of the Steamship Authority’s M/V Woods Hole. In Memoriam 2 2020 ANNUAL REPORT Gary R. Brown March 16, 1946 - October 15, 2020 A native son, Gary Brown was born in 1946. He received his Associate’s degree from Cape Cod Community College and his BA in Political Science from Boston State Teachers College. A member of the 82nd Airborne, Gary was awarded the Bronze Star during his tour in Vietnam. A member of the VFW, American Legion and Cape Cod Salties, Gary worked tirelessly for our veterans and the protection of his beloved Cape Cod. He was proud of the work accomplished during his tenure on the Barnstable Town Council. Gary served on the Town Council from November 1997 to November 2007. During that time, Gary served as Town Council President from 2003 to 2005. In June of 2008, the Lewis Bay Boat Ramp was renamed the Gary R. Brown Boat Ramp. An avid fisherman, Capt. Brown provided fishing reports on Barnstable Channel 18’s “Barnstable This Morning.” He was always quick with a joke and more thrilled with a buddy’s prize catch than his own. Fair Winds and Tight Lines, Capt. Brown. Dr. Edward Tynan August 14, 1936 – October 24, 2020 Barnstable Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Meg Mayo-Brown shared the following: I am saddened to share that last weekend retired superintendent, Dr. Ed Tynan, passed away. Ed served the students, staff and families of Barnstable Public Schools for 26 years, and was Superintendent for 21 of those years. Ed is fondly remembered by all those who had the pleasure of working with him. He also served as past President of the Massachusetts Association of School Superintendents and was described as "... a very special person in the way he worked with people, especially the teachers and administrators of Barnstable along with his superintendent-colleagues. Ed was maybe retired but maintained a careful eye on the issues and problems of today’s superintendents and all educators. If you talked to Ed on a call or meeting with him, the great stories about his daughters and sons highlighted the conversation. " For those that did not have the opportunity to know or work with Ed, his sense of humor, and love of family, education and community, is evident by reading the words of his obituary. We offer Ed's family our collective condolences, and gratitude for his service and love of Barnstable schools. Sincerely, Meg Scott F. Dutra June 7, 1958-December 7, 2020 We were saddened by the sudden passing of Veteran Service Officer Scott Dutra on December 7, 2020. Scott was raised in Osterville, MA. He joined the Air Force and retired honorably after 20 years of service. After returning to Cape Cod to care for his family, he worked for the Town of Barnstable as a Veteran Service Officer for 10 years helping veterans and their families. Scott was a pillar in the community, Board member of the Massachusetts Veteran Service Officers Association, organizer of local Veteran parades and events, and part of worship teams across Cape Cod in various local churches. Scott will be deeply missed.

TOWN COUNCIL’S QUALITY OF LIFE STRATEGIC PLAN Shaped like a wheel, the strategic plan diagram shows Quality of Life at the hub, surrounded by seven priority areas: Economic Development, Regulatory Process and Performance, Housing, Public Health and Safety, Environment and Natural Resources, Infrastructure, and Education.

BARNSTABLE TOWN COUNCIL It has been stated that the local government is Democracy at work. The Barnstable Town Council exemplifies this by putting the concerns of the public first. Whatever we do is of, by, and for the people of Barnstable. Our achievements reflect the hard work of the Council, the Town Manager and Staff, and the many committees, boards, and commissions. Perhaps our pressing challenge remains our response to the COVID-19 crisis. Our greatest achievement is our willingness to face the future as united citizens of a proud and welcoming community. 12 ANNUAL REPORT Environment and Natural Resources – Conserve and protect areas in the town that are most significant as natural and historical resources for water supply, visual quality, outdoor recreation, public access, wildlife habitat and cultural history.

TOWN COUNCIL TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 13 TOWN of BARNSTABLE TOWN COUNCIL STRATEGIC PLAN FISCAL YEARS 2020-2021 TOWN COUNCIL 14 ANNUAL REPORT Town of Barnstable Presented with the Presidential Citation from the Republic of Korea On October 19, 2020 a ceremony was held at the Korean War Memorial, located at Veteran’s Park Beach, to recognize the Town of Barnstable for its longstanding support of Cape Cod’s Korean War Veterans. Commander Roy Thomas of the Cape Cod Chapter of the Korean War Veterans Association (KWVA) stated that the KWVA nominated the Town of Barnstable for the award “because of the critical support of Korean War Veterans on Cape Cod rendered by the Town in giving choice waterfront real estate for the location of the Korean War Memorial and for doubling the value of a fund in its custody for the perpetual upkeep of the monument.” Presenting the Presidential Citation on behalf of the President of the Republic of Korea, Consul General Yonghyon Kim conveyed his warmest greetings to the people of Barnstable and noted that this year marks the 70th anniversary since the outbreak of the Korean War. He shared that “the Presidential Citation was being awarded to the Town of Barnstable to recognize its outstanding endeavors to honor Korean War Veterans by providing a space for the memorial, for their excellent association with the KWVA, and for the immaculate management of the memorial. By doing so the Town has greatly contributed to the public education of the Korean War, the importance of freedom and peace, and to remembering the war heroes.” In accepting the Presidential Citation from Consul General Kim, Town Council President Paul Hebert shared that it was a tremendous honor for the Town to receive such a prestigious award and expressed his hope “that deep in our hearts someday there will be absolute peace between the two countries of Korea.” Pictured above Commander Roy Thomas of the Cape Cod Chapter of the Korean War Veterans Association (KWVA), Barnstable Town Council President Paul Hebert, and Korean Consul General Yonghyon Kim.

Additionally, several steps were implemented to immediately address this situation including the freezing of all non-essential spending and all vacant positions in the last quarter of Fiscal Year 2020, and the postponement of all existing approved capital projects that did not address an immediate public health or safety issue or address a failed asset. Due to the steps taken the Town closed – Mark S. Ells, Town Manager As we navigate the COVID-19 global pandemic there are a number of words and phrases that we have heard over and over – mask-up, social distance, contactless, pivot, remote work, virtual, Zoom, the new normal, etc. But “the new normal” clearly defines where we are and where we are headed in the future. Since the start of the pandemic, the Town of Barnstable has followed and continues to follow the Orders and Directives of the Governor. Governor Charlie Baker, Lt. Governor Karyn Polito, and their public health advisors and COVID-19 Task Force have created Governor Baker’s 4-Phase Reopening Plan. The Town of Barnstable has dedicated employees who are passionate about their work and who continuously strive to maintain excellence in service delivery while expanding upon the type, number and variety of programs offered to residents of and visitors. This has never been more evident than during the COVID-19 pandemic, with staff across all of our departments and divisions having to implement new ways to provide contactless service delivery while our facilities were closed to the public per state guidelines and then ensuring strict adherence to state protocols once our facilities were allowed to reopen to the public. I am proud of our employees for their outstanding commitment to serving our community by overcoming significant challenges to find opportunities that benefited our residents and visitors. It became clear early on that there was a need for contactless service in switching to remote meetings through Zoom, providing our beach stickers and transfer station stickers as well as online permitting for the many services provided in our Building, Marine & Environmental Affairs, and Town Clerk offices. Senior managers have met twice a week since March of 2020 to ensure the business of the Town of Barnstable remained on course. Our Information Technology Department met the technology needs of a remote workforce in an effective and exceptional manner. The Fiscal Year 2021 budget presented itself with a lot of uncertainty due to the State of Emergency declared by the Governor on March 10, 2020. Revenue contraction in all NAVIGATING THE NEW NORMAL TOWN MANAGER REPORT Fiscal Year 2020 with a General Fund surplus of over $4 million. Coupled with a decrease in the General Fund budget for Fiscal Year 2021, the Town was well positioned to manage the unpredictable financial situation that was imminent due to the public health emergency. To our good fortune the Federal government provided Trillions of dollars in two stimulus packages that allowed the Town to absorb the financial impact of the Pandemic. Communication and civic engagement are keys to making government work. We understand that community outreach and citizen engagement are shared goals by the Town Manager and the Town Council. Civic engagement is at the core of what we do and as depicted in the Town Council’s updated Strategic Plan; communication is one of the wheels that support all other priority areas. The Town has updated its website to make it more users friendly and numerous communications are provided including a weekly newsletter, comprehensive programming on channels 18 and 22 and an Open Budget website providing citizens real-time financial data on the Town’s operating and capital budgets. Efforts are being expanded to communicate major program To our good fortune the Federal government provided Trillions of dollars in two stimulus packages that allowed the Town to absorb the financial impact of the Pandemic. I am proud of our employees for their outstanding commitment to serving our community by overcoming significant challenges to find opportunities that benefited our residents and visitors. TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 17 initiatives such as a dedicated websites for the public health emergency and our Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan (CWMP). SAFETY FIRST, Barnstable A refrain you heard from our Town staff repeatedly over the Summer of 2020 as our Departments implemented new guidelines and protocols to keep you and your family safe during COVID-19. Our beaches, golf courses, marinas and recreational areas all had additional rules mandated by the State to mitigate the spread of this highly contagious disease. Channel 18 was out on locationto help keep folks informed. You could tune in to Channel 18 on your TV, watch on our website’s Video on Demand feature or watch on our YouTube playlist. Town of Barnstable Opened Lane on Hyannis Main Street for Pedestrians and Outdoor Business Use The Town of Barnstable looked forward to safely welcoming residents and visitors to Hyannis Main Street in the summer of 2020. To provide room for social distancing, and to support the safe and successful reopening of the many small shops and restaurants on Main Street, the Town of Barnstable made one of the two traffic lanes on the street available to pedestrians and outdoor business use. The southern lane and parking spaces remained available for vehicle travel and parking. All intersections remained open for traffic in all directions. The lane closure began prior to Barnstable Road and extended to Sea Street and remained in place through the summer. The Town of Barnstable is committed to promoting public health and safety and to supporting the small businesses that make Hyannis Main Street unique and vibrant. These modifications to the public street were the centerpiece of efforts by the Town of Barnstable and the Hyannis Main Street Business Improvement District aimed at ensuring a successful economic recovery and transition to a safe and prosperous “new normal” in Hyannis. The new temporary outdoor business space was accompanied by renewed efforts to enhance lighting and bring public art to the street, as well resumption of customary services including public restrooms and Community Service Officers. Town of Barnstable Economic Recovery Planning Town of Barnstable staff continues to work to help our businesses reopen successfully, recover from this crisis, and move towards a strong and prosperous future. We continue to listen to and work with our businesses, residents, the Economic Development Task Force (a Town Council presidential subcommittee), the Hyannis Main Street Business Improvement District, and other community partners on developing an Economic Recovery Plan, with an TOWN MANAGER REPORT initial focus on promoting the safe and successful reopening of businesses when allowed by the Governor. We are looking at ways the Town can support our local businesses, while promoting public health and safety. Additionally, we encouraged our businesses to take the Cape Cod Commission’s online survey for Cape Cod business owners. The survey was conducted to better understand the current and anticipated economic impacts of COVID-19. Data collected through this survey was used to support economic recovery and was leveraged by businesses, towns, and other organizations in future grant applications and reports. New Law Allows for Voting By Mail In July, a new law was passed to allow all registered voters in Massachusetts to vote by mail in any 2020 election, with no excuse needed. As required by the new law, a Vote by Mail application was mailed to every person who was registered to vote by July 1 and who had not already requested an absentee ballot for the State Primary or for all elections this year. A second mailing was sent out in September to all voters who had not already applied for a Vote by Mail ballot for the November election. The Town Clerk’s Office worked tirelessly to ensure all votes were handled safely and securely. Barnstable Affordable Housing/Growth & Development Trust Fund Grants $300,000 to Housing Assistance Corporation to Provide Support to Barnstable Individuals and Families Residing in the Town of Barnstable Adversely Affected by COVID-19 Mark S. Ells, Town Manager at Read Across America. 18 ANNUAL REPORT The Barnstable Affordable Housing/Growth & Development Trust Fund voted to grant the Housing Assistance Corporation (HAC) Three Hundred Thousand ($300,000) Dollars in Trust funds to provide support to Barnstable individuals and families residing in the Town of Barnstable adversely affected by COVID-19 whose income is 80% or less of the Area Median Income through a temporary emergency rental assistance program. Eligible applicants could qualify for up to $5,000 to pay rent and rental arrearages. The Trust’s contribution used in conjunction with other funds received by HAC in its Workforce Relief Fund and Homelessness Prevention Programs provided Barnstable residents with urgent and ongoing assistance to pay past due rent or mortgage payments or other housing-related expenses up to $5,000 for Barnstable residents who lost income due to the coronavirus. He following programs were offered: RAFT (Residential Assistance for Families in Transition) - This state funded program provided payments to prevent homelessness; ERMA (Emergency Rental and Mortgage Assistance) - This state funded program provided rental or mortgage payments to prevent homelessness; and Workforce Housing Assistance Fund - Eligible clients could make up to 100% Area Median Income, and must not be eligible for other state, federal or local relief. The 2020 Federal Census The Census Bureau abruptly decided to cut their national counting operations a month short. This announcement further jeopardized Congressional representation, redistricting, and critical federal funding for things like education, housing, food programs, and more in the Town of Barnstable during the next 10 years. We worked diligently to help get undercounted members of our community counted during this difficult time when traditional methods of communication were restricted due to the pandemic. Barnstable Designated a Housing Choice Community Barnstable has been notified by the Governor that we have been designated a Housing Choice community in 2020. This is the second Housing Choice designation for Barnstable. This designation recognizes Barnstable’s efforts to support housing production over the past 5 years and has several benefits including the opportunity to apply for Housing Choice capital grants. Barnstable was previously designated in 2018 and was awarded a $250,000 grant that was used to upgrade a sewer line in downtown Hyannis enabling new residential units access to public wastewater. Vineyard Wind We continued with regular conversations with Vineyard Wind regarding the status of the Phase I and Phase II projects. Vineyard Wind continues to work with Barnstable staff regarding both Phases of the project. They anticipate commencing construction on Phase I in the spring of 2021 and are proceeding with permitting on Phase II. Barnstable DPW Receives Two Commonwealth of Massachusetts Grants The Town of Barnstable was awarded a 2020 MassTrails Grant for the Cape Cod Rail Trail Phase 3 project. The Town of Barnstable was awarded $180,950 for the design, engineering, and permitting of phase 3 of the Cape Cod Rail Trail, which will extend the current terminus of Peter Homer Park in West Yarmouth to Mary Dunn Road in Barnstable. The project was one of 94 proposals requesting over $8.8 million submitted during the grant application period. This year, 54 projects will receive awards totaling $4 million. The Town of Barnstable in partnership with the Association to Preserve Cape Cod has been awarded a $173,255 Coastal Zone Pollutant Remediation (CPR) Grant, which will be used to construct stormwater green infrastructure to treat runoff at South County Road through a nature-based approach. This project builds on a multi-year effort by the Town to improve water quality within the Three Bays watershed, with a goal to improve water quality for coastal habitat, swimming and shellfishing. This grant will continue the efforts by the Town to treat stormwater runoff in the critical Three Bays embayment and its recreational and shellfishing activities. The CPR Grant Program seeks to improve water quality and protect coastal habitats by reducing or eliminating nonpoint sources of pollution, the leading cause of water quality impairment in the nation. This type of pollution primarily occurs when contaminants are picked up by rain, snow melt and other flowing water and carried over land, in groundwater or through drainage systems to the nearest body of water and ultimately out to sea. Barnstable Town Manager Mark Ells passes the hammer to Orleans Town Administrator John Kelly while Housing Assistance Corporation CEO Alisa Magnotta looks on. TOWN MANAGER REPORT TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 19 Nonpoint source pollution reduces water quality, negatively impacts habitat for coastal wildlife and reduces opportunities to harvest shellfish and swim due to mandated closures. Barnstable Public Schools Fall Reopening Plan The School Superintendent and I communicated daily regarding community issues and specifically the current plan for School Year 2020/2021. On August 14, Barnstable Public Schools (BPS) submitted the Fall Reopening Plan to the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. The Plan, in its entirety, is available on the BPS website. The 2020-21 school calendar represents a phased-in reopening with the following dates: • School staff began on August 31. • Students began September 16 with remote learning until September 25. • Students began in-person learning on September 28 (based on cohort assignments) on a reduced 4-hour school day. • Students began full implementation on in-person learning on October 13. The Superintendent continued to provide weekly video updates to our BPS community. All updates are available on the BPS website. On Monday, August 24 parents/guardians received their child’s cohort assignments. Assignments were based on the family survey that resulted in a 76% response rate. Non-responders were assigned in-person by default. At the time 960 students were identified for remote learning and 3,953 students were identified for in-person learning model. In addition we met with our school department to ensure that our youth programming is well coordinated and effective in our continued efforts to offer safe programming for our youth in Barnstable. The Superintendent kept staff and families apprised of how things were progressing throughout the school year including pivoting to remote learning when the health metrics showed high rates of transmission in the community. Barnstable Public Schools (BPS) provided FREE breakfast and lunch for any student free of charge. All meals were offered in compliance with USDA standards and as a “Grab and Go” option. The importance of social distancing was stressed during meal pick up. Our BPS educators and staff lead efforts to collect non-perishable food items for distribution as well. All Day Summer Fun Club We received feedback from parents whose children attended the All Day Summer Fun Club. Over six weeks, 92 children attended the program (past years 350-400 children) to enjoy much-needed summer fun and good times with their peers. Across all three sites we received a 9.8 out of 10 rating and the comments we received expressed the gratitude our families felt that our community was able to offer the program this summer. Staff should be commended for their extraordinary efforts, in particular Mickie Davies and her team of counselors, who in addition to providing a fun and engaging environment each day were responsible for ensuring the safety and wellbeing of our participants during this pandemic. Although this was a very different experience than we have provided in past years, our kids quickly adapted to the safety requirements and had fun in the process. Our staff is approaching the coordinated youth programming with our schools for this upcoming school year with the same positive attitude. It is not a question of if we will do it, but rather how we will do it. Cape Cod & Islands Water Protection Fund The Town Council appointed the Town Manager as its representative on the Cape Cod & Islands Water Protection Fund Board. The Bylaws and Regulations Subcommittee met to approve draft regulations and forwarded to the full Board for consideration and approval. The website for the Board has been created by the Cape Cod Commission staff and the link to the current webpage is: https://www. capecodcommission.org/our-work/cciwpf-bylaws-regulations- committee/. COVID-19 Vaccination Process Assistant Town Manager Andy Clyburn, Police Department, Hyannis Fire Department, Health Division, Safety Officer, and other key staff worked tirelessly to assist residents in procuring the highly sought after COVID-19 vaccine following the state’s phased approach to distribution. Town of Barnstable Reaches Significant Milestone with Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan The Town of Barnstable reached another significant milestone in efforts to clean up its inland and coastal waters Mark S. Ells, Town Manager at New England States Government Finance Officers Association Fall Conference. TOWN MANAGER REPORT 20 2021 ANNUAL REPORT by successfully completing state environmental review of the Town’s Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan (CWMP). The Certificate of completion was issued late December 2020 by the Massachusetts Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs Kathleen Theoharides states that the Town’s CWMP “adequately and properly complies with Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act’s (MEPA) and its implementing regulations.” In sharing the news with the Barnstable Town Council, Daniel Santos, Department of Public Works Director, said, “The Certificate from Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs is no small matter. The fact that the regulatory agencies, and there are many that participate in this review, were very satisfied with our project is a major accomplishment and will do us well in the implementation phase.” The Town of Barnstable has made substantial strides toward improving water quality in its inland and coastal waters. The Town already has invested more than $30 million to reduce nutrient levels in its estuaries, and this plan dramatically speeds up the timeline on major projects, including extending sewer service to nearly 12,000 properties, while managing costs for taxpayers and limiting construction disruptions for residents, businesses and visitors. The next and final step in the approval of the CWMP was for the Town to petition the Cape Cod Commission for a Consistency Determination with the 208 Area Wide Water Quality Management Plan, the regional framework to restore embayment water quality on Cape Cod mandated under the federal Clean Water Act. The 208 Consistency Determination ensures that the CWMP is consistent with a watershed-based approach to reduce or eliminate excess nitrogen reaching coastal waters. We received that determination and Director Santos provides the Town Council with regular updates on the status of work on the plan. Citizen Forums Discussed Proposed Sewer Assessment Ordinance The health of Barnstable’s coastal waters that is so vital to the Town’s quality of life and local economy is at risk. The primary source of the problem is nitrogen pollution from septic systems. Likewise, the Town’s freshwater ponds and drinking water supply are being degraded from nutrients and pollutants from septic systems, fertilizer, stormwater run-off and other watershed sources. Building wastewater infrastructure to reduce the amount of these pollutants entering water resources is necessary to protect the environment, property values, local economy, and quality of life. Fortunately, Barnstable is leading the way on clean water solutions. Building on more than a decade of scientific study and engineering design, the Town has put forward a Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan (CWMP) to protect coastal, inland and drinking water resources. Barnstable’s plan has been rigorously reviewed and approved by state environmental agencies. The Town’s plan calls for sewers and other measures to be implemented over 30 years. The Town has identified existing revenues to cover more than half of this cost. A Sewer Assessment Ordinance was proposed to finance a portion of the remaining cost. A series of virtual public forums for the community were held so that we could get to a final product that was approved by the Town Council. Town Responds to Conservation Law Foundation Complaint The Town of Barnstable was informed on February 16, 2021 that the Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) filed a Clean Water Act complaint against the Town. CLF have not yet served the complaint on the Town, and the litigation process does not start until that happens. I issued the following statement in response to that lawsuit: “The Town of Barnstable is taking decisive and effective action to improve water quality in our coastal waters, streams and ponds. The Town’s Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan, recently approved by the Massachusetts Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs, will fully achieve the nitrogen reductions needed to meet Federal clean water standards. The Town has already invested $30 million toward the first phase of sewer construction needed to address this problem, and additional construction is planned to begin later this year, including upgrades to the Hyannis wastewater treatment plant. By the end of the decade, sewer expansions will be in place to remove nearly half of the nitrogen needed to protect our waters, with the remainder completed in subsequent phases. Contrary to the CLF’s Mark S. Ells, Town Manager welcomes students to STEEP (Sources, Transport, Exposure and Effect of PFAS) Day. TOWN MANAGER REPORT TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 21 allegations, the Town adheres to applicable environmental requirements. It operates the Hyannis wastewater treatment plant in full compliance with a Groundwater Discharge Permit issued to the Town by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection. If CLF is seeking to change the manner in which the plant is permitted, they need to take up that issue with state and federal permitting agencies. Moreover, CLF’s actions could hinder the Town’s current efforts to address the problem of nitrogen pollution in our waters by diverting financial and staff resources away from that work. Nitrogen pollution of the Cape’s waters is a large-scale and costly problem. Barnstable is committed to ensuring that we do all that we can to protect and restore the health of our coastal waters, which are the lifeblood of our economy and quality of life. We encourage CLF and others concerned about this issue to support these efforts and work together with us.” We will keep you advised through future executive session as we progress through this legal matter. Town of Barnstable and Hyannis Main Street Business Improvement District Will Participate in the Local Rapid Recovery Program through the Massachusetts Downtown Initiative The Town of Barnstable, together with the Hyannis Main Street Business Improvement District (BID), was awarded participation in the Local Rapid Recovery Program from the Massachusetts Downtown Initiative (MDI) under the Massachusetts Department of Housing and Community Development. This award provides technical assistance tailored to the unique economic challenges and COVID-19 impacts that have affected downtowns and commercial centers throughout Massachusetts. The focus of the program is to understand the unique impacts of COVID-19 on Barnstable businesses, particularly targeted to Downtown Hyannis Businesses within and just outside of the BID area, and to develop short-range, actionable projects that will help drive business and economic recovery. Recommendations will also be developed for longer-range actions that will foster business resiliency and economic sustainability, including recommendations for project-related investments that align with existing public resources and the potential to leverage additional resources from other partners and funders. Opportunity to Become Complete Streets Community The Planning and Development (P&D) Department, in collaboration with the Department of Public Works, pursued the opportunity to become a Complete Streets community. The National Complete Streets Coalition was launched in 2004 and Massachusetts Department of Transportation established funding for Complete Streets in 2014. Complete Streets projects improve the quality of life for a community by providing safe and accessible options for all travel modes including walking, biking, transit and vehicles for people of all ages and all abilities. The Policy reflects Barnstable’s commitment to incorporate Complete Streets design principles, whenever feasible, based on factors such as cost, current and future need, and proximity to scenic, historic and/or environmental features. Rental Property Registration and Hotline We reminded owners of rental properties that they are required to register rental units with the Town of Barnstable Health Division; this includes ALL rentals from annual to summer to short-term. The requirement to register rental properties has been in place here in Barnstable since 2006. We were pleased to announce that property owners can now register their properties on-line through our website. We are also pleased to announce that we now have a short term rental compliance hotline available for the public to submit any complaints concerning short-term rental properties. The hotline is available on-line through our Health Division website or by phone 24 hours a day at 508-504- 9779. Town of Barnstable Statement in Response to Second Conservation Law Foundation Lawsuit In response to a lawsuit filed by the Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) on Wednesday, June 16, 2021, that alleges that the Town of Barnstable has failed to comply with the state regulations that apply to private septic systems, the Town has provided the following statement. "The Town of Barnstable has long prided itself on its commitment to protecting the environment and the coastal waters off Cape Cod. Despite the Town’s commitment, the Conservation Law Foundation (“CLF”) has filed a lawsuit in state court alleging that the Town has failed to comply with the state regulations that apply to private septic systems. The Town faithfully administers the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) regulations, but CLF’s Mark S. Ells, Town Manager with Trust Fund Advisory Committee and Library Directors. TOWN MANAGER REPORT 22 2021 ANNUAL REPORT lawsuit threatens to impose significant burdens on Barnstable’s residents and businesses. Specifically, CLF requests an order requiring most Barnstable property owners to pay for expensive upgrades to their fully compliant septic systems. It also seeks an order prohibiting the Town from approving most new septic systems and prohibiting the Town from accepting a “passing inspection report” for such systems. Together, these orders would effectively stop new construction utilizing fully compliant septic systems in Barnstable, and they would prevent the sale of most properties in Barnstable with a septic system. This new lawsuit follows a lawsuit that CLF filed against the Town in federal court earlier this year. In that complaint, CLF alleged that the Town’s fully permitted and compliant Water Pollution Control Facility is violating the federal Clean Water Act because treated wastewater from the plant travels through groundwater and ultimately reaches, after more than twenty years, coastal water off Cape Cod. If CLF prevails in its federal lawsuit, the Town could be subject to millions of dollars of penalties, attorney’s fees, and increased wastewater management costs. In addition, nearly every septic system on Cape Cod will be subject to the Clean Water Act, and owners of septic systems will need to obtain a federal permit or face lawsuits like CLF’s that threaten penalties totaling tens of thousands of dollars per day. The Town believes that CLF’s legal claims in these lawsuits are meritless and intends to defend against them aggressively. As Barnstable Town Manager Mark Ells commented, “we are committed to doing everything in our power to preserve the health of the waters surrounding the Cape. That is why we enforce the state law for septic systems and why we have developed and received regulatory approval for a Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan (CWMP) for the Town of Barnstable. The CWMP is a plan to protect our waters by reducing the amount of key nutrients like nitrogen that harm water quality in our coastal estuaries. By implementing the CWMP, Barnstable will achieve the nitrogen reduction called for in the Total Maximum Daily Load documents developed by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection and approved by the federal Environmental Protection Agency for estuaries on the Cape. CLF’s demands in these twin lawsuits exceed any requirement of either state or federal law, disrupt Barnstable’s plans to implement the CWMP, and carry the potential of devastating economic impact on Barnstable’s residents and businesses.” Gearing Up for Summer 2021 Our public beaches officially opened for the summer season on June 26th, with the hot temperatures over the past week seeing many residents and visitors flock to our beaches and ponds. Unfortunately, Barnstable has not been immune to the lifeguard shortages that have impacted many coastal communities throughout the nation. As a result, we did not have lifeguards on duty at Hamblin’s Pond and Lake Wequaquet. The Recreation Division issued over 20,000 beach parking permits, marking the most permits we have ever sold prior to the 4th of July weekend, so we expected this to be an extraordinarily busy season. We continued to have Beach Safety Officers patrolling our beaches to ensure a safe and positive experience for all beachgoers. Our online permitting programming has worked very well for us this year and we will continue to explore efficiencies in our permitting procedures as we move forward. We instituted an additional safety procedure at our beaches that during high wind situations the use of umbrellas and tents will be suspended until such time as the winds subside. This safety procedure has been established on a daily basis depending on the weather much like the no floatation devises prohibition when there is an offshore breeze. I want to say thank you to all our aquatic and beach permit staff for their efforts and to the public for their continued patience and understanding as we adapt to new policies and procedures. We could not accomplish our financial and operational objectives without dedicated town and school employees. Our employees have given their all again this year continuing to provide a broad range of public services in these unprecedented times. In addition to what they have routinely provided in the form of public services they have managed the distribution of vaccinations, organized and operated COVID -19 testing locations, implemented new election procedures offering our community a safe and secure elections process that protected the integrity in our elections, modified operational workspace to create a safe working environment, transitioned most permit applications to include a safe, on-line payment option and established effective remote workforces. Our schools were faced with some of the most significant challenges. Our elementary schools have been providing a safe, in-person learning option for most of the school year and hybrid learning environments have been established throughout the district offering students and parents options for their child’s education during the public health emergency. The School Committee, School Superintendent, and staff have done an extraordinary job in advancing excellence in our school system and responding to the COVID-19 situation. We are grateful to our fire and water district professionals as they work to preserve and protect our health and safety during the pandemic taking a lead role in partnering with town officials to address the pandemic.

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS 36 TOWN OF BARNSTABLE Description of Services: Roadway Maintenance Program Description. The roadway maintenance program is responsible for 250 miles of town roads, 70 miles of town sidewalks, 4 miles of bike paths, 74 town parking lots, 6 bridges and over 4,000 drainage systems on town roads. It also performs emergency repairs to 200 miles of private roads, sweeps town roads and responds to pumping flooded private roads on an emergency basis, grades 91 gravel roads, removes brush and mows 144 lane miles of town road shoulders, and removes litter from 250 miles of town roads. In addition, the division maintains over 8,000 regulatory and non-regulatory signs on town roads and street signs on private roads, maintains and repairs 48,549.60’ guardrails on town roads and provides pavement marking on town primary roads and parking lots. The Forestry section maintains and waters 25 trees per week during the summer months. The bridge crew operates the drawbridge and the courier moves interdepartmental mail, as well as picking up dead animals. The crews are supported by a small office staff which answers the telephone, dispatches, and deals with administrative matters and equipment procurement for the DPW. The Roadway Maintenance program focuses on our goal of infrastructure maintenance, deals expeditiously with daily complaints, strives to complete the preparations necessary for the following year’s roadway resurfacing program and, increasingly, accomplishes construction projects such as drainage improvements. During winter storms, everyone works to keep our roadways passable. Equipment Support Program Description. The Equipment Support Program maintains a 160 unit fleet of vehicles which includes trucks, automobiles, street sweepers, backhoes and everything in between. We do this for all divisions of the DPW, as well as Natural Resources, Weights and Measures, Recreation, Animal Control, Sandy Neck, Hyannis Youth & Community Center and the Harbormaster. The Equipment Support Program also maintains 27 traffic signals, 13 school flashers, the Osterville drawbridge, and operates the municipal fueling depot. Snow and Ice Removal Program Description. The Snow and Ice Removal Program provides for snow and ice removal from 450 miles of roads comprised of 201 miles of town roads, 49 miles of county roads, 200 miles of private roads, 54 municipal parking areas containing 46 acres, and 70 miles of town sidewalks and four miles of bike paths. The program goal is to remove a large portion of the accumulated snow and ice from its areas of responsibility as quickly as possible. The removal is intended to be of sufficient width and depth to allow the adequately prepared public to travel at reduced speeds throughout the town. The Department does not attempt to achieve bare pavement during any storm. The practice is far too expensive and the large quantities of salt required would be detrimental to the environment.

COVID RESPONSE: During FY 2021, Human Resources continued to play a major role in the Town’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our staff was a resource to employees as we continued to navigate the ever changing guidance from Federal, State, and Local public health officials. Working in conjunction with the Senior Leadership Team and our unions, we implemented a remote work policy. Later in the fiscal year, we continued this partnership as the organization transitioned into a more hybrid workforce. RECRUITMENT: The Town of Barnstable continued its commitment to attracting, maintaining and retaining a diverse, knowledgeable and effective workforce. In FY 2021 Human Resources assisted Municipal and School Departments in filling 622 full-time and part-time positions. Human Resources received 4,199 applications for employment through our on-line applicant tracking systems. Human Resources staff assisted in the interview and selection process for several high-level positions including the High School Principal, Chief Procurement Officer and Deputy Director of Asset Management. ACCESSABILITY: In December of 2020, the Town of Barnstable received a $250,000 grant from the Massachusetts Office on Disability. This grant will allow the Town of Barnstable to develop an ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan. The plan will take a closer look throughout the town to see how programs and facilities can create an environment that is more inclusive and supportive for individuals of all abilities. Human Resources partnered with the Barnstable Disability Commission and the Planning and Development Department to secure this grant. Assistant Human Resources Director Tammy Cunningham was instrumental in this effort. BENEFITS In FY2021, most of the Town of Barnstable’s wellness programs were provided by the Cape Cod Municipal Health Group (CCMHG). Many activities were conducted outdoors and included a Friday night cycling series, learn to play pickleball and tennis, Couch to 5K beginner running, and a fall weekly scenic hiking series. There were monthly closed group CCMHG Facebook thematic challenges, all of which involved sharing a log of daily activities inspired by the theme of the month. CCMHG members were also encouraged to sign onto the “AHealthyMe” Wellness Portal and take a health assessment and earn points towards rewards and incentives upon completing group challenges. LABOR/EMPLOYEE RELATIONS: Human Resources Staff were involved in all aspects of labor/employee relations in Fiscal Year 2021. In December, 74 employees were recognized for their years of service with the Town. Also 18 employees who retired during the year received special recognition. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this annual recognition was done virtually. WORKERS COMPENSATION: In Fiscal Year 2021, Human Resources received and processed 82 reports of work-related injuries for all departments including the School Department, of which 13 resulted in lost time. UNEMPLOYMENT CLAIMS: During FY 2021 the Department processed and paid unemployment claims which cost the Town $116,300. This amount represents a $228,252 (77%) decrease over FY 2020. I would like to thank the members of the Human Resources Team: Susan Atkins, Tammy Cunningham, Deborah Gilbert, Joanna Gillis, Erin Hurd, Laura Scroggins, and Angela Whelan for all of their hard work.

Other primary responsibilities of the Treasurer’s office are producing the weekly town payroll and biweekly school payroll for approximately 2,500 full, part-time and seasonal employees, including processing extensive contractual adjustments and oversight and management of all employee deductions. The Treasury also oversees the issuance and disbursement of all vendor payments. The Collector’s office is responsible for the billing and collection of real estate, personal property tax bills, motor vehicle and boat excise tax bills, sewer usage and charges for road, water, sewer and septic betterments. The Treasurer and Collector offices were consolidated into a combined Treasurer/ Collector office in June of 2019. The Treasurer/Collector’s office interacts with all School and Town Departments in an effort to provide excellent customer service to our employees, taxpayers, citizens and the general public. The goal of the Treasurer/Collector is to maintain a professional environment for: • sound cash management procedures; • effective investment of surplus funds; • servicing existing debt and issuing new debt; • timely collection of tax revenues; • minimizing the amount of delinquent taxes outstanding; • producing accurate payrolls for both school and municipal departments; and • supporting all Town departments in their financial and operating needs. It is the policy of the Town of Barnstable that, providing due regard to the safety and possible risk of investments, that the management of all available funds shall be in conformance with Commonwealth of Massachusetts legal and administrative guidelines. The Town’s investment portfolio is designed and managed in a disciplined, quality focused manner, responsive to the public trust and consistent with state and local laws. In addition to managing the Town’s general fund and investment portfolios, under the direction of the Town Manager and with input from the Trust Fund Advisory Committee (TFAC), the Treasurer also oversees the investment of the Town’s trust fund accounts. The Town of Barnstable currently has custodianship of thirty-one trust funds with a market value of $32,648,434 as of June 30, 2021. FISCAL YEAR 2021 MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS: I am once again pleased to report that Standard & Poor’s rating agency has assigned its “AAA” long-term rating and stable outlook to the Town of Barnstable’s 2021 General Obligation Bonds (GOB). “AAA” is the highest rating possible and is a major factor in Barnstable receiving more bidders for our bonds and a lower interest rate when borrowing for our capital projects. • On March 10, 2021 the Town issued a $12,695,000 GOB borrowing with a competitive interest rate of 1.33%. We also refinanced bonds originally issued June 15, 2010 and June 14, 2011 for a budgetary savings of $1,071,079 over the remaining life of the bonds refunded. • Managed the procurement of debt and debt repayment processes based on Town Council’s approval of loans for all of the Town’s infrastructure and other capital projects. Debt payments were in excess of $16,500,000 during FY 2021 for over 175 different projects. • The Treasurer/Collector worked with the Cape Cod Municipal Health Group, as a Steering Committee member and Investment Committee Chair, to implement cost savings programs and to increase the group’s fund balance reserves which contributed to a minimal percent rate increase and premium holiday for the next fiscal year – a savings to both the Town and employees. • In fiscal year 2020 the Treasurer/Collector’s Office collected in excess of $8,000,000 additional revenue over the fiscal year prior to consolidating the Treasury and Collector offices. This year, fiscal year 2021, we collected $5,000,000 above last fiscal year’s revenue. FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS TREASURER / COLLECTOR To maintain a professional environment for; sound cash management procedures,the effective investment of surplus funds, servicing existing debt and issuing new debt, minimizing the amount of delinquent taxes outstanding and producing accurate payrolls for both school and municipal departments. PURPOSE STATEMENT TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 107 Respectfully submitted, Debra M. Blanchette, MMCT, MMCC, MPA Treasurer/Collector • The total revenue collected in FY 2020 was as follows: Real Estate taxes - $164,366,059 Motor Vehicle excise - $8,560,538 Sewer Usage - $3,313,251 Personal Property taxes - $3,213,281 Boat Excise - $173,953 Due to the onset of the COVID-19 epidemic, the last quarter of fiscal year 2020 and all of 2021 were quite trying, to say the least.

PURPOSE STATEMENT COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT The Community Services Department is comprised of the following divisions: Council on Aging, Golf, Hyannis Youth and Community Center, and Recreation. Each division has provided a detailed report of their accomplishments during the past year. The Community Services Department also serves as liaison to the Town Libraries and Veteran Services. ENHANCING THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR RESIDENTS OF ALL AGES, ABILITIES, AND INTERESTS. The Community Services Department has dedicated employees who are passionate about their work and who continuously strive to maintain excellence in service delivery while expanding upon the type, number and variety of programs offered to residents of and visitors to the Town of Barnstable. This has never been more evident than during the COVID-19 pandemic, with staff across our divisions having to implement new ways to provide contactless service delivery while our facilities were closed per state guidelines and then ensuring strict adherence to state protocols once our facilities were allowed to reopen. I commend our exceptional team for their commitment to serving our community by stepping up and overcoming significant challenges to find opportunities through which our residents and visitors can continue to stay active, engaged and healthy while maintaining a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment for all participants. We offer our sincere thanks to the Youth Commission, Recreation Commission, Golf Committee and Council on Aging Board who provide valuable and vital support to our staff and help ensure that we are meeting the needs of our community. Respectfully submitted, Madeline Noonan Community Services Director 114 2021 ANNUAL REPORT Division Overview: The Barnstable Council on Aging Division supports older adults in our community by providing programs and services designed to optimize their quality of life, reduce social isolation and help them maintain their independence so they may successfully age-in-place in Barnstable. Our vision at the Barnstable Adult Community Center (BACC) is to provide a safe, inclusive and welcoming environment, where all participants are treated with dignity and respect, and to offer opportunities that enrich and empower our older population. Our programs and services are open to all older adults regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, ability, gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation. By offering a broad spectrum of programs and services, ranging from support and advocacy services, caregiver support, volunteer opportunities, and social, educational and wellness activities, we are helping to ensure that older people in our community remain physically, mentally and civically engaged. Each week we offer a diverse array of activities, including exercise classes, computer classes, health seminars, caregiver support groups, movies, art workshops, musical entertainment, social clubs and discussion groups, congregate lunch, intergenerational activities and blood pressure clinics. FY2021 Major Accomplishments: • Despite the ongoing challenges to our community posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the BCOA continued to be a valuable resource for older adults in Barnstable, including caregivers. In a demonstration of their commitment to our community, our staff went to work and began reinventing our traditional service models. We identified the core needs of older adults during a “Shelter Safely at Home” order: Food Security, Safety, Loneliness, Caregiver Support, and Outreach Support. • To keep our older adult community engaged and active, we embraced technology and offered 170 Virtual Programs. Health and Wellness, such as Meditation, Yoga, and Chair Exercise were very popular, as were a vast array of classes in culture, arts and science. • To support food security in our community, the BCOA staff continued our Grab and Go lunches on Tuesdays and Thursdays. • Elder Services awarded a “CARES” Funds Grant to the BCOA in the amount of $1,250 to provide outreach and support to isolated older adults and their caregivers during the pandemic. • Our monthly Brown Bag Nutrition Support program has distributed 2,872 bags of nutritious food to largely home bound older adults, and our staff has stocked a food pantry with food for Emergency Food Bag deliveries • BCOA staff assisted with COVID-19 vaccination efforts by managing the Town of Barnstable COVID-19 online and phone hotlines. Thousands of inquiries came into the hotlines, and BCOA staff assisted with referrals to local vaccination sites, and much needed support and information. The BACC became a local vaccination site, and our staff was trained to schedule appointments and work in the clinics, which made it possible for thousands of local residents to receive their vaccinations close to home. • The BCOA staff assumed the task of coordinating all of the requests for assistance with the Home Bound Vaccine Program. The BCOA staff worked cooperatively with the Barnstable Board of Health, and Hyannis Fire Department, to assist our local residents who do not have the capability to go to a vaccination site, to receive the vaccine at home. Over 250 local residents were assisted through this effort. • In support of caregivers, the Family Caregiver Support Program staff offered many programs. Three (3) sessions of the Savvy Caregiver Program was offered.

The staff of the BCOA has completed this training, as will our Council on Aging Board members. • Based upon the widely known “Village” concept, Barnstable Neighbor to Neighbor (BN2N) launched operations in the summer of 2021. BN2N’s mission is to help older adults to age in place and remain connected to their communities with the practical supports and tools they need to create successful aging. At year’s end, BN2N has nearly 50 Members and nearly 60 Volunteers. This program is a needed resource for the Town of Barnstable. The BCOA considers BN2N important community partners in the support systems available to older residents. For more information about BN2N, visit their website: https://barnstable.helpfulvillage. com/ • We received a formula grant from the Executive Office of Elder Affairs in the amount of $154,140.

Over 2,500 Wellness Calls were made to older residents during the BCOA facility closure, to assess the wellness status of our more frail residents. Interventions and support services were provided as needed. • A total of 50,705 meals on wheels were served to 419 Barnstable residents through the Elder Services of Cape Cod and the Islands nutrition program. • AARP Tax Aides were able to assist 309 local residents with their income tax preparation despite the pandemic closure. As always, we offer our sincere gratitude to the Barnstable Council on Aging and to the Friends of the Barnstable Council on Aging for their continued support and guidance and to the dedicated staff and volunteers of the Senior Services Division for their professionalism and commitment to ensuring that we continue to meet the wide-ranging needs of older adults in our community.

Somewhere in Recreation’s Report 2021 Aquatic Staff on Opening Day – June 26 TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 123 The Town of Barnstable is part of the largest municipal Veterans District by general population served in the Commonwealth. Vietnam veterans continue to comprise the largest group of veterans in our town. Their needs are increasing as they enter the later stages of life with concomitant medical and disability issues. We also continue to serve the benefit needs of our WWII, Korean, Gulf War, OIF/OEF/OND and Peacetime veterans. Our primary service to the Town of Barnstable is to provide financial assistance under M.G.L. Chapter 115 to honorably discharged low-income veterans and their dependents who are residents of the Town of Barnstable and meet eligibility requirements. In 2021, the Town of Barnstable, through our department, provided $208,377.13 in cash benefits to resident veterans and dependents in financial crisis. The Commonwealth reimburses the Town seventy-five percent of these expenditures. We assisted veterans and their dependents in obtaining federal benefits under the broad umbrella of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). These services included filing for service-connected disabilities, need based VA pensions, medical benefits, burial, and military records requests. During 2021, this office assisted in obtaining $13,620,334.80 in tax free cash payments for service-connected disabilities and need based pensions for Town of Barnstable veterans and their dependents. Although our staff are not VA employees, our department files more VA claims than any other veterans service organization on Cape Cod. These alternative sources of income greatly reduce the need and dependence on the Town’s MGL Chapter 115 benefits noted above.

The Parking Management Program is comprised of two different but complimentary programs: Parking Resources and Gateway Greeters. We strive to not only manage and implement objectives for on and off street public parking in the Town of Barnstable, but set an example of how parking can positively assist with economic prosperity through innovative technology, proactive solutions, and exemplary customer service. This year’s program goal, keeping in line with the Town’s mission statement, is as follows: “The goal of the Parking Management Program is to continue to consistently provide the highest level of services while positively assisting our residents and visitors alike through enriched customer services and efficient community parking management while promoting accessibility to the communities’ cultural and recreational resources as well as our downtown business districts.” The office processes approximately 4,000 parking citations per year for violations within all of the Seven (7) Villages including Bismore Park, Main Street, beaches, ramps, landings, commuter lot, and malls. We conduct approximately 700 hearings and appeals per year, and provide maintenance and collection services for parking kiosks. We work closely with our data processing company on payments and data collection, and the Barnstable Police Department on enforcement, and with the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles on ticket clearances, handicapped placards and updated laws and systems. In addition, the Parking Program supports the Town in other various capacities including virtual permitting, visitor services through the Gateway Greeter program, collaboration with DPW for improved parking management through new and/or updated signage and imprinting, collaborative efforts of Arts & Culture projects in parking areas.

(3) Coordinate weekly Informal Site Plan Review process as well as the bi-monthly Formal review process; if required. Site Plan Review is an administrative process established to support the Building Commissioner for commercial, industrial and multi-family projects. The Site Plan Review Committee is an inter-departmental staff review of projects to ensure that all development standards are adhered to as well as explained to an applicant in detail. In conjunction with the above responsibilities the applicant will be provided a detailed letter outlining permitting steps and process to aid in a successful implementation of their proposed project. The Site Plan Review Committee reviewed 109 applications for this fiscal period. • Zoning Update E-Mails: Massachusetts law requires municipalities to notify the public about proposed zoning amendments through a published notice in a local newspaper. Barnstable sought to enhance communication with the public around zoning issues by offering the opportunity to opt-in to e-mails from the Town about proposed zoning changes. E-mail messages are now sent about zoning amendments being considered through the required process prior to the public hearings at the Planning Board and Town Council, as applicable. Messages are also sent about public meetings, workshops or other efforts that relate to amending zoning.

Old King’s Highway was among three new Massachusetts designations approved in January 2021 and 49 additional across the country. The nomination was prepared by the Cape Cod Commission and the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce to preserve, promote, and enhance this unique roadway. The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) submitted the nomination to the Federal Highway Administration accompanied by letters of support from numerous local chambers of commerce and the Town of Barnstable. The Chamber’s commitment to promoting the stories found along the byway was a component in securing this designation. “The scenic byway category recognizes that, like the environment, the Cape’s history also drives the economy,” Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce CEO Wendy Northcross said. “Along with our beaches, salt marshes and harbors, Route 6A captures what many residents and visitors think when they hear the words ‘Cape Cod.’ The Commission’s work developing a corridor management plan, initially in 1995 and updated in 2010, helped lay the groundwork for the national designation, making it eligible for nomination. That plan followed the roadway’s 1992 designation as a Massachusetts Scenic Byway in recognition of its distinctive scenic and historic character. “The Cape Cod Commission has long-recognized the important role played by the Old King’s Highway in preserving the Cape’s special sense of Gray Boxes - Planning & Development’s Report MassDevelopment’s FY2020 annual report is now online and the Town of Barnstable’s Elizabeth Jenkins, Director of Planning & Development, is featured on page 10.

It is the backbone of the Old King’s Highway Regional Historic District, enacted in 1974. The district continues to be instrumental in preserving the historic character of the roadway. The National Scenic Byways Program, part of the Federal Highway Administration, seeks to “create a distinctive collection of American roads, their stories and treasured places.” Among the factors considered in designations are a roadway’s intrinsic qualities – archaeological, cultural, historic, natural, recreational, and scenic – national or regional significance; overall visitor’s experience; and long-term sustainability. Along with inclusion in the 2021 National Scenic Byways Program Designations Booklet, Old King’s Highway will be added to the America’s Byways website. The Mohawk Trail and Battle Road (Concord, Lincoln, Lexington, and Arlington) scenic byways were also designated this year. The Connecticut River Byway was approved in 2009. u u u Hyannis Main Street Summer 2021 The Town of Barnstable looked to promote a successful summer season in Barnstable, notably for the small and local businesses on Hyannis Main Street. In response to positive feedback from merchants regarding last year’s efforts, as well as the COVID social distancing restrictions that were in place, the Town reinstalled the modified street configuration that allowed for expanded outdoor public areas and dining space for summer 2021. Consistent with the previous year’s layout, one of the two traffic lanes on the street was available to pedestrians and outdoor business use. The southern lane and parking spaces remained available for vehicle travel and parking. All intersections remained open for traffic in all directions and driveways remained open. The lane closure began at Center Street and extended to Sea Street and remained in place through the summer. New this year was the availability of on-street parking on the north side of the street in some locations where there is limited outdoor dining. Also new was aesthetic improvements to the barrier blocks used to implement the changes. The Town applied for and received funding from Massachusetts Department of Transportation ‘Shared Streets and Spaces’ program to enhance the environment on the street through barrier “wraps”, additional planters, strategic wayfinding, and other enhancements. In preparation for the season, the Planning & Development Department conducted various forms of outreach including a merchant meeting, as well as a comment period that allowed the public to communicate with staff directly on the draft street configuration. While a few businesses had shared concerns, the overwhelming majority of merchants on the street expressed support for the modified configuration. This was confirmed by face-to-face or other direct communication with over 40 business owners or managers on the street. Business Improvement District Executive Director Elizabeth Wurfbain, offered a visit to key downtown sites and discussion of and gratitude for support and initiatives afforded by the Baker-Polito Administration that have allowed the Town to implement positive changes along Main Street as well as the Town’s Transformative Development Initiative (TDI) District. The tour culminated with a ribbon cutting to celebrate the recently completed mixed-use development located at 255 Main Street which received funding through MassWorks. The Town is excited to share that both Sea Captains Row and 255 Main Street bring affordable housing in addition to market rate housing to the greater downtown area.

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT CAPE COD GATEWAY AIRPORT TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 147 To provide a safe and convenient air travel experience and offer high quality aviation activities/businesses to the citizens of the Town of Barnstable, the Cape Cod region, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. As a non-hub primary airport and a major transportation facility for Cape Cod, our goal is to foster local economic growth and to ensure that the airport remains an integral part of the regional transportation plan in an effort to meet PURPOSE STATEMENT COMMERCIAL TRANSPORT HUB CAPE COD GATEWAY AIRPORT AIRPORT PROGRAM: The Cape Cod Gateway Airport (formerly Barnstable Municipal Airport) serves as a distinct commercial transportation hub for the residents of the Town of Barnstable and Cape Cod by meeting the regional demand for air transportation (both commercial and private transportation). For some, it provides very affordable and economic travel opportunities to/from Hyannis and other major destinations across the country, and yet for others, the airport provides a much-needed mode of travel to and from the Islands of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard. This includes travel, tourism, and commuting opportunities for a large professional labor force. Cape Cod Gateway Airport connects residents to worldwide markets and destinations, sustaining Cape Cod’s rapidly expanding population and business community and welcomes visitors to Cape Cod, a world-renowned tourist destination. Cape Cod Gateway Airport is a vital link to the regional, national, and international markets that drive our emerging economy. As documented in the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) Aeronautics Division CY2019 (FY2020) Economic Impact Analysis, the Cape Cod Gateway Airport, in conjunction with its tenants and associated businesses, provide employment opportunities for 1,724 people, with an annual payroll in excess of $73.8 million and a regional economic output in excess of $157.2 million. In addition to the 24 airport employees that operate the facility, the Airport is also home to over 65 businesses/private users, with Cape Air, Atlantic Aviation (formerly Ross Aviation), Griffin Avionics, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) making up the bulk of employees on the airfield. FY 2021 MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Like many town departments, the Airport had to find ways in Navigating the New Normal. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has had lingering effects on so many industries and aviation was not immune. Even with a loss of over 90% in passenger traffic during the height of the pandemic, the Airport persevered and that success is largely in part to business strategies. With the advent of the 2018 Airport Business and Marketing Plan, the Airport began to modify its business approach and the effects of these modifications were apparent in FY2021. With four major goals that include: maximizing general aviation activity at the Airport, diversify airport revenue streams, becoming a regional air transportation leader, and enhancing the airport image and branding; the airport was able to grow and diversify so that in FY2021 we could sustain dips in passenger activity. The following identifies FY2021 airport accomplishments: • Leveraged over $2.9M in grant funding to implement various airport safety, improvement and economic development projects that included: Airport Tree Clearing Project, Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Building Roof Replacement Project, and Various Airport Equipment Purchases to meet Aircraft Firefighting, Snow Removal and Mowing Requirements. • Received $17.9M in federal funding under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, in which the Airport has been able to implement a number of Business Plan 148 ANNUAL REPORT CAPE COD GATEWAY AIRPORT goals and fund the majority of its capital improvements and local grant matching shares as well as cover operating cost to rebuild airport reserves. • Implemented a number of environmental enhancements that help reduce environmental impacts, help offset carbon emissions and to do our part as environmental stewards and stakeholders within the community such as: o Installation of 8 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations with 8 more on the way in FY2022; and o Procurement of propane and/or battery operated-solar powered airfield mowers through the Massachusetts Department of Transportation – Aeronautics Division (MassDOT) Leading by Example Greenhouse Gas Reduction Initiative. • Implemented a number of Airport Business Plan and Marketing Plan goals, objectives, and tasks including: o Rebranding, selecting a new name and logo for the Airport – Cape Cod Gateway Airport (meets enhance the airport image and branding) o Hosting a number of aviation educational events to entice young Cape area students to learn more about aviation as a career choice (meets maximize general aviation activity at the airport and enhance the airport image and branding) such as: • Hosting Young Eagles events - a program created by the US Experimental Aircraft Association designed to give children between the ages of 8 to 17 an opportunity to experience flight; and • Airport tours for local schools. o Embarking on a new campaign with focus on near monthly community-based events held at the airport known as the Cape Cod Gateway Airport Community Event Series (meets enhance the airport image and branding). o Updating Airport Rates and Charges to improve and update the airports fee based financial structure (meets diversify airport revenue streams). o Completing the Airport Master Plan Update; a comprehensive study of the facility that describes the short-, medium-, and long-term development plans to meet future aviation demand (meets maximizes general aviation activity at the Airport, diversify airport revenue streams, become a regional air transportation leader, and enhance the airport image and branding). o Continuing to collect non-aviation related revenues from the airport’s 6.669 megawatt (DC) ground mounted solar photovoltaic array.

Bailey, Esq., Commissioner Joe DiGeorge, Commissioner TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 149 CAPE COD GATEWAY AIRPORT Airport Updates Name and Brand On January 5, 2021, the Airport rolled out a name change and new brand. The airport formerly known as Barnstable Municipal Airport (HYA) will now be marketed as Cape Cod Gateway Airport. The three letter identifier for the airport, HYA, will remain the same. As part of the 2018 Airport Business plan, four main goals were identified: to maximize general aviation activity at HYA, diversify revenue streams, become a regional air transportation leader, and enhance the airport image and branding. This puts us one step closer to reaching these goals,” explained Airport Manager Katie Servis. “The new name and logo were chosen after a year-long review of alternative names presented during the Airport Master Plan Visioning Sessions and through discussions with airport users and Town of Barnstable officials. The airport considered its overall business objectives, potential opportunities a new name may afford, existing challenges, and our local community. The new name and logo were chosen not only to respond to passenger needs and expectations but to prepare for potential airline partnerships, align with the Airport’s commercial future, refocus the customer experience, and change transportation perceptions for Cape Cod and the Islands. We wanted to ensure we created a greater sense of place as we market to travelers and users of the facility.” “After months of deliberation and local and national research, we are happy with our decision with the name and logo,” said Assistant Airport Manager Matthew Elia. “We are excited to start this new year with a new look.” The airport will be gradually changing the logo throughout the terminal and grounds. 150 2021 ANNUAL REPORT BOARDS, COMMITTEES AND COMMISSIONS:TOWN TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 151 CAPE COD GATEWAY AIRPORT COMMISSION Respectfully submitted, John T.

PURPOSE STATEMENT 2021 MEMBERS Tom Lee Vice Chair Marilyn Fifield Clerk Deborah Converse James Tenaglia Stephen Robichaud Terry Duenas Katherine Garofoli Farley Lewis In Fiscal Year 2021, the Community Preservation Committee (CPC) approved and recommended a total of five projects to the Town Council, through the Town Manager, for appropriations totaling $1,932,169. Open Space and Recreation, and Community Housing were among the projects for which funding was approved and appropriated. Community Preservation Act (CPA) funds in the amount of $300,000 were recommended by the Community Preservation Committee through the Town Manager and appropriated by the Town Council in support of the creation of two (2) moderate income deed-restricted residential rental two- bedroom apartment units indexed at 100% Area Median Income. The two- bedroom units are located within a mixed-use redevelopment of an historically significant building located at 255 Main Street in the East End of Hyannis Main Street and are restricted at 100% Area Median Income (AMI) in perpetuity. The total project budget for the mixed-use redevelopment is $3,056,628 and includes the construction of 8 additional one-bedroom apartments. 255 Main Street, Hyannis is in the epicenter of three maps, both local and Federal, specifically designated to encourage growth. The project creates much needed workforce, year-round housing for local professionals, and will be a key piece of the economic development plan for the East End. CapeBuilt – 255 Main Street, Hyannis – Community Housing $ 300,000 Acquisition Hyannis Golf Course – FY21 Debt Service – Open Space/Recreation $ 289,600 28 Falcon Road, West Barnstable – Land Acquisition – Open Space/Recreation $ 320,000 830 Wakeby Road, Marstons Mills – Land Acquisition – Open Space/Recreation $ 500,000 Pickleball Courts – 760 Osterville/West Barnstable Road – Open Space/Recreation $ 522,569 TOTAL $ 1,932,169 The Town Council approved the Community Preservation Committee to assume payment of the remaining debt associated with the acquisition of the Hyannis Golf Course to be phased over a five-year period and appropriated $289,600 for payment of the fiscal year 2021 loan amount. Existing Article 97 protections for active recreation will remain in place and in exchange for assumption of the remaining debt, the Community Preservation Committee will have authorization of any change of future uses if golf is determined to no longer be a viable use. Community Preservation has acquired a recreation interest for additional active recreation uses such as an adventure course. With the assumption of this debt by the Community Preservation Committee, the Hyannis Golf Course has the opportunity to invest funds in the existing infrastructure which will attract more users to participate. The ancillary benefits of an active golf course are the rental of hotel rooms and visits to restaurants and shops. Community Preservation Act (CPA) funds in the amount of $320,000 were recommended by the Community Preservation Committee through the Town Manager and appropriated by the Town Council for the acquisition of the open space resource consisting of 15.96 acres located at 28 Falcon Road, West Barnstable. The Town of Barnstable owns the land with Barnstable Land Trust holding the Conservation Restriction. This Community Preservation funding amount represents a portion of the total purchase price of $347,500 with $27,500 in cash and in-kind contributions provided by Barnstable Land Trust. This land acquisition satisfies many Barnstable Open Space Plan and Community Preservation Act goals related to water supply protection, natural resource preservation as well as passive recreation. Community Preservation Act (CPA) funds in the amount of $500,000 were appropriated by the Town Council for the Town of Barnstable to acquire the open space resource consisting of 15.74 acres located at 830 Wakeby Road, Marstons Mills. At the time of the Town Council’s 154 TOWN OF BARNSTABLE Respectfully submitted, Lindsey B. Counsell Chair, At Large Member COMMUNITY PRESERVATION COMMITTEE appropriation, a state drinking water supply protection grant application for reimbursement of matching funds in the amount of $250,000 was pending and subsequently awarded. At a later Town Council meeting, the appropriation was amended to reflect receipt of the drinking water grant along with the addition of COMM Fire District as the primary holder of the Conservation Restriction and Barnstable Land Trust as the secondary holder. The matching grant funds will reimburse the Community Preservation Fund. The total purchase price of the property was $525,680 with Barnstable Land Trust providing $25,680 in both funding and in-kind contributions. This land acquisition satisfies many Town planning and Community Preservation Act goals, as well as the Town’s Open Space Plan related to scenic, water supply protection, and natural resource protection and passive recreation. The partnership with Barnstable Land Trust and the leveraging of the drinking water grant creates an advantageous cost-benefit value for the Town and Barnstable Land Trust. The Department of Public Works request was approved for Community Preservation funds in the amount of $522.569 to cover increased costs for the construction of 10 new dedicated pickleball courts and 2 tennis courts with pickleball overlay lines; provision of handicap parking; and a storage shed at the existing site located at 760 Osterville/West Barnstable Road, Marstons Mills. This funding request represents a portion of the total project cost of $1,142,569 with $620,000 provided by Capital Improvement Plan Funding (CIP). The need and strong public support for dedicated pickleball courts in the Town of Barnstable was expressed by the community and identified in the recent comprehensive field study.

PURPOSE STATEMENT PRESERVING BARNSTABLE’S HISTORY The Barnstable Historical Commission was established to promote the public welfare and safeguard the Town’s historical, cultural, and architectural heritage by promoting historical resources that make the Town a more interesting, attractive, and desirable place in which to live. The Commission reviews applications for a permit for demolition or substantial alteration for buildings that have been listed or is the subject of pending application for listing on the National register of Historic Places or listed on the Massachusetts Register of Historic Places, or is over 75 years of age. This review is not extended to properties located in Barnstable’s two local historic districts: Old King’s Highway Historic District and the Hyannis Main Street Waterfront District. As part of the preservation program, the Town has 13 Historic Districts including six National Register Districts, plus 75 properties individually listed on the National Register. Significant changes or demolition of buildings listed on the National Register and contributing buildings located within a National Register District are also subject to review by the Cape Cod Commission. Pursuant to Chapter 112 Historic of the Town of Barnstable Code the Commission may hold a public hearing on the proposed demolition of a historically significant building more than 75 years old. If the Commission then further finds that the building is preferably preserved, a demolition delay of up to eighteen months can be imposed. This process allows the property owner time to incorporate the present building into new plans or find other individuals who would be interested in preserving the building. In fiscal year 2021, the Commission reviewed 37 matters. The Commission issued 6 demolition delays during this year for 20 Scallop Path, Osterville, 359 Seapuit Road, Osterville, 20 Grand Island Avenue, Osterville, 76 Long Beach Road, Centerville, 39 Cove Road, Centerville, and 599 Iyannough Road, Hyannis.

Rob Wilson Jane Ward Peter Doyle John Solomon 2021 MEMBERS Paul Caniff Clay Schofield Kathryn Hautanen TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 167 The Community Preservation Act (CPA) was passed in 2000 and accepted by the Town of Barnstable in 2005. Before that time, Barnstable purchased land under the Land Bank Act, supported by the Open Space Committee. When Barnstable accepted CPA, the Land Bank was retired and the Open Space Committee disbanded. The Town Council formed its Community Preservation Committee in 2005 to execute the three prongs of the CPA: affordable housing, represented by the Housing Committee, historic preservation, represented by the Historical Commission and open space, represented by Conservation Commission, and more recently, the Recreation Commission. The Land Acquisition and Preservation Committee (LAPC) was formed in 2005 to replace the Open Space Committee and the majority of its early members were Open Space Committee members. LAPC reviews Conservation Restriction (CR) proposals prior to their approval by Town Council and Conservation Commission. It targets parcels for open space acquisition, prepares the Town’s Open Space and Recreation Plan, supports the Cape Cod Pathways and the Town’s trail systems, participates in the management of the Santuit Preserve and educates the public about water quality and preservation. This past year has been very challenging as all meetings have been remote, and the Committee’s work is more compatible with face-to-face meetings and interactions. However, the Committee has focused on finalizing several CRs which remained unrecorded and bringing forward two major CRs-Wakeby Road and Spruce Bog (Falcon Road), the latter rewritten to allow water drilling and resource wells. The Committee also filed an opinion about enforcement of the CR on the Barnstable County Farm. The Committee started to be involved in recommendations for the use of the Twin Brooks property, currently a resort and golf course in Hyannis, slated for major redevelopment. The Committee welcomed several speakers. Lev Malakoff, Pathways volunteer and member of the New England Mountain Bike Association presented trail alternatives and improvements. The Committee began working with Mr. Malakoff on construction of a bridge over wetlands on one of the major trails. Casey Dannhauser Chatelain, Special Projects Manager for the Barnstable Clean Water Coalition, spoke about cranberry bog restoration and septic alternatives. Shannon Hulst, Barnstable County and Woods Hole Sea Grant Floodplain Coordinator, spoke about Federal and local buyback programs as a defense to global warming and tidal surges. The Committee completed the Open Space and Recreation Plan, begun in 2018, which was approved by the State. Because of the ongoing pandemic, the Santuit Preserve Management team did not meet, but maintenance continued to be done on the Preserve, thanks to the Town’s Department of Public Works. One of the positive outcomes of the pandemic was that people took advantage of the Town’s extensive trail system. The Fall and Spring Walking weekends, led by Farley Lewis, were well attended. The Committee’s main focus continues to be to underline the importance to our community’s mental and physical health and wellbeing of this recreational resource. The Committee advocated and will continue to advocate for more aggressive stewardship of the Town’s open space, including accessing grants, maintenance of trails, signage, effective utilization of volunteers. We thank our Town Council liaison Kris Clark for her guidance and advocacy. For more information, please visit: www.townofbarnstable.us/ LandAcquisitonandPreservationCommittee.

The agenda for each meeting is built around three focus areas: conservation, economic sustainability and public use and education. Working with the Sandy Neck management team, the board contributed to the development of beach policies and regulations, 2022 fee structure as well as COVID-19 guidelines. This year saw a significant increase in beach use due to pent up demand from the pandemic. Revenues were up 52% ($444K) driven by significant increase in beach parking fees, ORV (Off Road Vehicle) passes and merchandise sales. The Sandy Neck team was faced with challenges managing this demand while maintaining a safe environment; supporting plover, tern and terrapin nesting and following COVID-19 guidelines. I am pleased to report that policy changes such as earlier beach curfews have driven improvements in behavior on the beach and safety statistics. In addition, both plover and terrapin hatchlings increased significantly year over year. In terms of the increased demand, the team was able to provide a fair allocation of limited space aided by the use of the new camper reservation system. Erosion continues to be a threat to Sandy Neck both in terms of damage to the beach as well as the risk to beach park assets such as the septic system and parking lot. Unfortunately, sand last placed on the beach in 2018 has now been significantly eroded by recent storms. We are expecting new sand to be available as a result of the winter 2022 dredging of Barnstable Harbor. There are also two capital projects in the pipeline which will study options for risk mitigation in protecting beach assets. We also welcomed a new board member, Maureen Piccione who replaced Nate King. Nate had served on the board for over 30 years! Would also like to acknowledge the great teamwork we received from Town Councilors Kris Clark and Gordon Starr as well as Chris Kelsey from Barnstable Police. Managing the impact of the uncertainty inherent in the coastal environment continues to be the primary risk for Sandy Neck. Developing options for addressing this risk has been and will continue to be a key area of focus for the Board. We are committed to working in conjunction with the Town Manager and his team along with support from the Town Council and outside agencies to identify options for continued mitigation of this risk.

PURPOSE STATEMENT MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS: 7th Annual Community Substance Abuse Prevention Forum - The commission hosted a presentation with Deb Ciavola, PhD in Family Therapy, School Resource Officers David Downs, and Officer Dennis Stampfl, in order to educate parents on how to start the conversation with their children on substance abuse prevention. We also gave examples of the consequences of drug use along with real images of the substances in use by teens. Unlike previous years this event was held on Zoom in a webinar format. We believe that it still was able to create an impact even with the different format. 5th Annual Youth Job Fair - The Youth Job Fair had to be significantly altered this year due to COVID restrictions. It was held virtually on Zoom where students, ages 14-17, were able to visit various breakout rooms. In these rooms, they were able to speak to employers and even fill out applications on the spot online. In addition to the fair, we created a webpage where youth could find local businesses willing to hire in their age range and learn how to apply. “Hidden in Plain Sight” Trailer - State grant funds received during FY 2020 were utilized to buy and furnish a trailer in order to emulate a teenager’s bedroom, and it neared completion towards the end of this fiscal year. We hope to be able to provide knowledge on various techniques used to hide substances from parents in the bedroom. The plan is to bring this trailer to various events, but specifically the Community Substance Abuse Prevention Forum in FY 2022. Youth Summit - Like our other events we had to move the Youth Summit virtually. We invited Clifton Crosby, a former NFL football player, to speak about his experiences Respectfully submitted, Lucas McCauley Chair as a teenager. On a Zoom meeting with BIS 7th grade students, he recounted his stories and taught the youth how to learn from one’s mistakes and how to make good choices in the future. He was a powerful speaker and we hope to have come close to the impact of the usual full-day Youth Summit. One Love - The Youth Commission organized a new One Love Workshop virtually at Saint John Paul II High School and Sturgis Charter Public School (East and West campuses). This workshop, Behind the Post, taught the youth about the 10 healthy and unhealthy signs in relationships and how social media may portray situations differently from reality. The commissioners and other youth in the community trained to be facilitators and lead discussions throughout the workshop, helping to educate on this crucial subject. Climate Change Education - Town Manager Mark Ells approached the Commission in December requesting our help in achieving the Town’s strategic plan. With this in mind, we worked through it seeing where we could best help and our gaps in aiding the community. The Commission felt that creating a climate change subcommittee would be best, focusing on the local environment and our impacts upon it. The subcommittee created a recorded easily digestible educational video regarding the CWMP, as it is and will be a pressing matter for years to come. In addition, an agricultural awareness presentation is currently being edited and hopefully released soon. MAJOR PROJECTS AND INITIATIVES: We are continuing our efforts to create a safer and healthier community through the constant development of our programs and the creation of new ones. There are plans to deliver nearly all of our programs to wider audiences in the future. We hope for a year of expansion and return to normal for the next fiscal year. This year was certainly tough with virtual meetings and the constant worry of a pandemic, but the Commission came together stronger than before. Even when we were facing hardships we still managed to create new programs and alter old ones to fit this new normal. I am so proud of what we have done together and I thank everyone who helped, especially our adult advisors who help us every step of the way.

Cape Cod Climate Initiative In January 2021, the Commission approved amendments to the Regional Policy Plan (RPP) to include a climate mitigation goal, objectives, and associated technical guidance. The amendments support, advance, and contribute to the Commonwealth’s interim and long- term greenhouse gas reduction goals and initiatives, including a state-wide net zero carbon target by 2050. The amendments also include a new greenhouse gas emissions performance measure. The Assembly of Delegates and Barnstable County Board of Regional Commissioners approved the amended RPP in February 2021. In April 2021, the draft Cape Cod Climate Action Plan, developed in parallel with the RPP amendments, was released for public comment. The plan benefited from development of a regional greenhouse gas emissions inventory, an economic and fiscal impact analysis, and a legal and policy analysis, among other research and analysis. The result was a comprehensive plan providing actionable goals for Cape Cod. The Climate Action Plan is intended to foster collaborative, targeted action to address climate change in measurable ways. By the end of June 2021, Commission staff was reviewing 66 public comments representing more than 500 individual points of feedback. Climate Ambassador Program The Climate Ambassador Program is an initiative to educate, engage and empower young people on Cape Cod to work together to combat climate change. The Program is intended for students in grades 9-12 who would like to develop a better understanding of climate change, learn how to communicate effectively about climate, and learn what actions can be taken individually and collectively to bring about change. Nineteen students were chosen from a field of nearly 40 applicants after submitting a one-page letter detailing their interest along with a teacher recommendation. Students from Martha’s Vineyard, Monomoy Regional, Barnstable, Sturgis East and West, Nauset Regional, Bourne, Mashpee, Sandwich, Upper Cape Tech and Falmouth Academy participated in the Program. Economic Development and COVID-19 Response The COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented changes to the way we live and work, with widespread impacts felt across the region. Working with state, regional, and local partners, the Commission helped develop and maintain several information tools and websites to provide up-to-date information on COVID cases, economic impacts, and other details supporting the Cape’s reopening, recovery, and resiliency efforts. See datacapecod.org. CEDS Year Two Report Approved In June 2021, the Barnstable County Economic Development Council (BCEDC) and Cape Cod Commission approved the Year Two annual report for the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS), outlining successes and challenges, and the proposed Year Three Implementation plan. The following initiatives are included as part of the Year Three plan: Last-Mile Broadband Deployment Strategy and Buildout Fund, Regional Housing Plan, Workforce and Business Retention Program, Regional Capital Plan, Model Bylaws for Zoning/Design, Water Quality Planning, and COVID-19 Response. The BCEDC is an advisory board to the Barnstable County Commissioners and is supported by Cape Cod Commission staff. Cape Cod License Plate Grants The Cape Cod License Plate grant program allocates Barnstable County’s share of funds raised through sales of the Cape Cod and Islands license plate. The program focuses on regional priorities for economic development that align with implementation of the region’s 5-year CEDS. Eligible applicants are non-profits and municipalities. The FY2021 grant round sought to address COVID-19 driven economic need in the region, awarding more than $135,000 to six organizations. Completion of the Water Quality Data Portal As part of a grant through the EPA’s Southeast New England Program (SNEP), Commission staff and project partners developed a database and tool to aggregate and access all data compiled from approximately 20 years of coastal water quality monitoring. These different sources of coastal water quality data were compiled into a single dataset, accessible through a public-facing data portal. The Cape Cod Commission was created by an Act of the Massachusetts state legislature in 1989. The Commission is charged with coordinating a balanced relationship between economic progress and environmental protection. “Keeping a special place special” describes the agency’s mission to protect the region’s unique qualities. PURPOSE STATEMENT CAPE COD COMMISSION 180 ANNUAL REPORT The project was designed to increase the accessibility and comparability of water quality data collected throughout the Cape Cod region and facilitate use of best available data by local decisionmakers. See https:// waterquality.capecodcommission.org/. Cape Cod and Islands Water Protection Fund The Cape Cod and Islands Water Protection Fund (CCIWPF) was established by the Massachusetts Legislature in 2018 to help Cape Cod and Islands towns pay for necessary wastewater infrastructure and water quality remediation projects. Projects on the Massachusetts Clean Water Intended Use Plan (IUP) for State Revolving Fund (SRF) loans are eligible for subsidies from the CCIWPF. The CCIWPF is a dedicated fund within the state’s Clean Water Trust set up to solely benefit communities on Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket. Its source of revenue is a 2.75% excise tax on traditional lodging and short-term rentals. The Cape Cod Commission provides administrative and technical support to the management board. In April 2021, the board unanimously voted to award the first set of subsidies to eight Cape Cod towns. Projects in excess of $1 million receive subsidies equal to 25% of the project costs. Projects of $1 million or less receive 50% subsidies. The board made contingent and final commitments totaling nearly $71 million for qualifying pre- existing debt and for projects on the 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 IUPs. The Town of Barnstable was approved for more than $12 million in subsidies for both pre-existing debt and current projects. Old King’s Highway Achieves National Scenic Byway Nomination Old King’s Highway was designated a National Scenic Byway by the U.S Department of Transportation. The nomination was prepared by the Cape Cod Commission and the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce to preserve, promote, and enhance this unique roadway. The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) submitted the nomination to the Federal Highway Administration accompanied by letters of support from numerous local chambers of commerce and the Town of Barnstable. The Commission’s work developing a corridor management plan, initially in 1995 and updated in 2010, helped lay the groundwork for the national designation, making it eligible for nomination. That plan followed the roadway’s 1992 designation as a Massachusetts Scenic Byway in recognition of its distinctive scenic and historic character. Development and Approval of the FFY2022-2026 Transportation Improvement Plan The Cape Cod Commission supported the Cape Cod Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), and their advisory group, the Cape Cod Joint Transportation Committee, in the development of key transportation planning documents for the region including the FFY2022- 2026 Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP). The TIP serves as a prioritized listing of roadway, bridge, and transit projects proposed for implementation during the next five years. Developed with a robust virtual engagement process, the plan included over $200 million in funded projects across all 15 communities, including more than $21 million for the construction of new shared use paths in Barnstable, Bourne, Sandwich, and Yarmouth. The TIP is accessible at www.capecodcommission.org/ TIP. Barnstable Local Comprehensive Plan Update and Support The Town of Barnstable requested technical assistance in support of its efforts to update the Town's Local Comprehensive Plan (LCP). The update intended to address the town’s pressing need to increase housing supply, diversity and affordability, and economic and climate resiliency. With funding provided by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Housing and Community Development’s District Local Technical Assistance Program, Commission staff supported the LCP update by providing data, mapping, and an online viewer.

The Compact’s mission is to serve our 205,000 customers through the delivery of proven energy efficiency programs, effective consumer advocacy, and renewable competitive electricity supply. MISSION STATEMENT Effective July 1, 2017, the Cape Light Compact reorganized and reconstituted itself as a joint powers entity pursuant to Massachusetts General Law Chapter 40 Section 4A1/2, becoming the first joint powers entity in Massachusetts. Reorganizing as a joint powers entity protects member towns from potential liabilities and mandates greater financial accountability through expanded reporting requirements to the Massachusetts Department of Revenue and member Towns, and designation of Treasury functions to an independent entity. POWER SUPPLY During fiscal year 2021 (FY21), the Compact’s power supplier for all residential, commercial, and industrial customers was NextEra Energy Services of Massachusetts (NextEra). The Compact is pleased that our residential price in FY21 remained price-competitive with the utility’s basic service residential price, while also being 100% renewable. The Compact has been a green aggregation since January 2017, meaning 100% of Compact’s power supply customers’ annual electricity usage is met with renewable energy certificates (RECs). By retiring RECs to match the Compact’s customers’ usage, Compact customers are financially supporting renewable energy resources, including resources located on Cape Cod. In addition, NextEra deposits all premiums paid for voluntary RECs, plus their supplier and retail fees (expected to total over $3 million per year), into a trust fund to be used solely for the development of new renewable energy resources. By purchasing electricity through the Compact, all Compact power supply customers are supporting renewable energy and acting locally to combat climate change. In March 2019, the Compact launched two new power supply options, CLC Local Green 50 and CLC Local Green 100. The CLC Local Green program gives customers an option to support local renewable energy development by paying a small premium on their monthly electric bill. The Compact uses this premium to purchase and retire Massachusetts Class 1 RECs to match either 50% or 100% of customers’ annual electricity usage, in addition to the RECs retired as part of the Compact’s standard power supply product. These RECs are sourced from renewable energy projects in New England, CAPE LIGHT COMPACT JPE including several solar installations on Cape Cod. By participating in CLC Local Green, customers are driving the market to bring new renewable energy resources to New England. At a regional level, New England continues to face electricity pricing spikes during the winter months. Over the last fifteen years, New England has greatly increased its reliance on natural gas for electricity production; however, natural gas pipeline capacity has not substantially increased during that same period. This creates a supply shortage of natural gas for electricity production during winter cold snaps, and therefore increases prices for electric generators, which is passed on to all New England power supply customers. Until such time as this issue is resolved, either through additional natural gas or electric transmission infrastructure, demand reduction, or other targeted programs, the possibility of future high winter pricing remains, and as such, consumers should still expect seasonal pricing fluctuations for the foreseeable future. The Compact will continue to seek ways to help customers reduce their electricity costs through innovative energy efficiency programs to mitigate the impacts of higher winter electricity pricing. As of June 2021, the Compact had approximately 20,552 electric accounts in the Town of Barnstable participating in its power supply program. CONSUMER ADVOCACY Since 1997, Cape Light Compact has advocated for the ratepayers of Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard at the local and state level. In FY21, the Compact’s primary consumer advocacy focus was on redesigning its Cape & Vineyard Electrification Offering (CVEO). The Compact expanded its coordination with Massachusetts stakeholders to redesign CVEO. The redesigned CVEO focuses on the following: • Consistency with the 2018 amendments to the Green Communities Act and will advance the goals and objectives of these amendments while providing cost- effective energy savings and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. TOWN OF BARNSTABLE ACTIVITIES 186 TOWN OF BARNSTABLE Respectfully submitted, David W. Anthony Barnstable Representative • Serving low-and-moderate income members of the Cape and Vineyard community, a population that faces economic barriers to installing the three technologies proposed under CVEO. • Address the economic barriers such as the high up-front costs and inability to qualify for a loan. • Through the installation of cold climate air source heat pumps (“ccASHP” or “heat pump”) CVEO advances the Commonwealth’s goal of beneficial strategic electrification and the greening of the building sector. The Compact filed its designed CVEO proposal in May 2020 and awaits an order from the Department of Public Utilities (DPU). ENERGY EFFICIENCY As outlined in the table below, FY21 brought more than $5 Million of energy efficiency rebates and incentives, awarded to more than 4,762 Participants of the Compact’s Energy Efficiency Programs within the Town of Barnstable, resulting in annual electricity savings of more than 14,400,000 kWh. Notable activity includes: • 1,223 Participants in comprehensive Home Energy Assessments. • $209,185 spent on municipal energy efficiency projects, saving more than 1,047,314 kWh annually. Municipal entities served include the Barnstable County Complex, Barnstable High School, and more. • 251 non-government commercial & industrial participants, implementing a wide variety of projects, resulting in $1,239,558 of awarded incentives and, approximately 6,976,072 kWh of annual electricity savings.

Note: In the Residential Retail Initiative, several measures may reduce energy use from one fuel source but may increase use of another fuel resulting in negative kWh savings. Strategic electrification for example is primarily focused on the adoption of Heat Pump technology which reduces the use of oil or propane but increase the use of electricity and increase peak demand. These measures are cost effective, and provide benefits to customers in a more holistic, integrated approach that helps customers address their energy use and associated costs based on their individual needs and goals, while aligning with the broader Commonwealth energy and greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals.

MISSION STATEMENT Margeaux Weber Co-Chair TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 189 To operate a safe, efficient, and Reliable transportation system for the islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket with a commitment to sustainability, accessibility, our port communities, and public engagement. MISSION STATEMENT The Governance of the Steamship Authority consists of a five-member Board of Governors who are appointed by the respective mainland towns of Barnstable, Falmouth, the City of New Bedford and the Islands of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard. Each town has a weighted vote with the three mainland towns having a vote of 10% each and the two islands having 35% each. The Steamship Authority also has a Port Council who serve as an advisory board to management and the Board of Governors. There are seven members of the Port Council, each member has an equal vote. The Steamship Authority does not receive a state or federal subsidy and operates only on the funds generated by the rate payers. This is unlike any other governmental ferry system in the country who are most always subsidized by their respective enabling governmental body. This is an important issue as in accordance with the enabling legislation of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Steamship Authority cannot make a profit nor create a rainy-day fund to offset any deficit, but in the event of a deficit, the five towns serviced by the Authority would have to pick up the deficit. But thankfully, there has not been a deficit in the past 59 years requiring the cities and towns to pay for the deficit. Over the past seven years, the Authority has been engaged in a massive reconstruction of the waterfront in Woods Hole. The project has been plagued with financial overruns due to pilings needing to be driven into the substrate between one hundred and one hundred and fifty feet only to strike impenetrable glacial ledge and boulders. Work has been restricted to the winter months and often in harsh weather conditions. The waterfront project is now complete, and the landside terminal is about to begin. When finished, the terminal will meet the Authority’s needs for to at least fifty years. The Authority has been doing its part mitigating global warming and the carbon footprint. This is extremely expensive, but every effort is being made to meet the energy standards of the future. The Authority has signed an agreement to construct canopied solar panels over the 2,000-car parking lot at the Thomas B Landers parking lot off route 28. Three electric busses have been budgeted at a cost of one million dollars each bus; two of which are slated for Falmouth and one bus for Hyannis. Conventional busses cost about one third that price. What is also noteworthy, the new terminal to be built in Woods Hole will be 100% LEEDS certified; a very difficult certificate to obtain and one of the very few on Cape Cod. While the future looks forward to hybrid ferries powered by both electric and diesel. These engines are unfortunately very much into the future due to technology. distance, cost, and available shore power at each port.. Statistical Data for 2021 is above 2020 the year of covid, but is still feeling the impact of the pandemic.

ELDERLY AND DISABLED TAXATION AID COMMITTEE The Barnstable Elderly and Disabled Taxation Aid Committee (BEDTAC) was formed in 1999 through the adoption of Massachusetts General Law, Chapter 60, Section 3D which allows the Town to establish a fund to defray the real estate taxes of low income elderly and disabled persons. PURPOSE STATEMENT 192 2021 ANNUAL REPORT TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 193 EDUCATIONAL ENRICHMENT GRANTS This is my tenth year as Trustee and Agent for the Trust. During the 2019-2020 school year, the Cobb Trust educational enrichment grants exceeded the previous year by nearly 15%. All administrative costs are charged to Trust principal thereby preserving all Trust income for enrichment programs and awards. FY 2020 presented unique challenges as a result of COVID related school closures and policy changes. In many cases travel and enrichment activities that had been approved by the Trustee were cancelled. Funding to reschedule events that were curtailed has been preserved with the help of the school system’s Grants Coordinator, Jacqueline Gillis. Whenever possible, remote learning activities took the place of traditional events. I hope that during FY 2021 we can return to a full complement of activities for all students and their teachers. Over the past several years the Trustee has endeavored to support large scale projects. During FY 2020, the Trust partnered with the school department to purchase a new mobile food truck. This will become a major teaching tool to benefit the innovative and very popular Barnstable High School food and hospitality curriculum. I am pleased to announce that the Trust’s financial reports for fiscal year 2019 have been submitted to and acknowledged by the Probate Court. During the 2021 fiscal year I plan to focus on the following areas: • Returning program activities to pre-COVID levels; • Distributing Trust income for traditional awards to each school as well as making large high impact awards as opportunities arise; and • Increasing public awareness of the Cobb Trust’s mission. Going forward, I will continue my efforts to make the Cobb Trust an even bigger supporter of the public school students in the Town of Barnstable. Respectfully submitted, Steven G. Heslinga Trustee ENOCH T. COBB TRUST The Cobb Trust was established by the will of Enoch T. Cobb, a Barnstable resident, who died in 1876. The purpose of the Trust is to provide grants for public school students in the Town of Barnstable. The Trust income is expended on items, programs and activities which the Trustee feels will enrich the educational experience of the students, particularly when funds are not readily available in the School Department budget.

And furthermore, to hold safe and administer all funds held in trust to benefit the youth of this town and the beautification of this memorial. PURPOSE STATEMENT TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 195 PROVIDING ASSISTANCE The Lombard Trust Fund comprises about 50 acres of land in the village of West Barnstable. The land was owned by Parker Lombard who passed away in 1754 and generously donated that land to assist the “Poor” of the Town of Barnstable. The key passage in his will states: “My will and all the real estate that I have in the Town of Barnstable shall be hired out to the highest bidder and that the rent or income of it shall be improved for the use and benefit of the Poor of the Town of Barnstable from one generation to another and never be sold.” In 2008 I, retired Judge Joseph J. Reardon, was appointed Trustee of the Trust. A committee of three great people, Janice Larivierre, Theresa Santos and Len Gobeil receive applications, interview candidates and submit their decisions to the Trustee in an effort to fulfill the wishes of Parker Lombard’s will. Without their tireless input and triaging of each application, the poor of the Town of Barnstable would suffer greatly. I could not function as the Trustee without their assistance. A deep debt of gratitude is also given to the assistance of the staff of the Town Manager. The committee also communicates with many of the social service agencies in Barnstable in an effort to assist as many people as possible. I could not function as the Trustee without the assistance of the Committee. As Trustee, I also owe deep gratitude to Town Finance Director Mark Milne, Town Director of Property and Risk Management David Anthony, and Town Treasurer Debra Blanchette, and the clerical staff of the Finance Department. Over the past few years, the applications of the “Poor” of the Town of Barnstable have increased and our staff has been able to provide assistance to hundreds of needy residents. During the 2019-2020 fiscal year the Lombard Trust Fund distributed over $100,000. Thank you Mr. Lombard. LOMBARD TRUST FUND To fulfill the wishes of Parker Lombard and to provide assistance to Barnstable residents who are in need. PURPOSE STATEMENT Respectfully submitted, Judge Joseph J. Reardon (Retired) 196 2021 ANNUAL REPORT Respectfully submitted, Joyce Persuitte Janice Cliggott Debbie Hill John Marsden The Martin J. Flynn/Town of Barnstable scholarship committee awarded $6,000.00 this year to ten very deserving applicants, each receiving $600.00.The worthy students were: Jessica Ashe Alexis Murphy Kaylin Barnes Erin Rooney Jessica Brady Madeline Sawyer Linnea Fawkes Owen Sullivan Kyle McMullin Sara Zahredine Again, we urge our taxpayers to check off the box on their tax bill and enclose a donation to this most worthy cause. A dollar bill from each taxpayer would enable us to award more monies so that our town residents could enjoy some financial freedom from the rising cost of college educations. HELPING OUR STUDENTS SUCCEED MARTIN J. FLYNN SCHOLARSHIP COMMITTEE The Martin J. Flynn Scholarship Fund was established in 1985 to provide financial aid to Barnstable residents. The source of funding for the scholarship is by a voluntary check-off on the real estate bill. PURPOSE STATEMENT TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 197 TRUST FUND ADVISORY COMMITTEE The Kirkman Trust was established in 1953. The original trust document was the Will of Mary Lewis Kirkman. It provided that fund income be used for the maintenance and beautification of Town cemeteries and for support of the seven libraries of the villages of the Town of Barnstable. In May of 2021, $250,000 was allotted from the Kirkman Trust Fund to be shared equally between the Libraries and Cemeteries for numerous projects that were presented to the Trust Fund Advisory Committee. The Trust Fund Advisory Committee makes recommendations to the Town Manager for his approval. The Trust Fund Advisory Committee is currently working with a newly established Hearse Committee to assist in the funding from the Kirkman Trust Fund for the restoration of a 19th Century horse-drawn hearse that is in disrepair at the Marstons Mills Cemetery hearse house. The Town of Barnstable acquired a horse-drawn hearse and hearse house for each of the seven villages of the Town during the 19th century; the house in each case was usually built next to the oldest burying ground of each village. Funds to pay for the hearses and hearse houses were appropriated by Town Meeting, as well as for the costs of repair. Marstons Mills acquired its hearse and house next to the Marstons Mills Cemetery on Route 149. Over the years, one by one, all of the other hearses and hearse houses of that era on Cape Cod have been removed, leaving the hearse and hearse house in Marstons Mills as the only 19th century glass hearse remaining on Cape Cod and much of southeastern Massachusetts. Funds in excess of $10,000 were disbursed from several of the trust accounts for a variety of educational scholarships as well as donations of $300 to Independence House in Hyannis and $200 to the Teens Love Christmas program through the Salvation Army. The Trust Fund Advisory Committee is responsible for the oversight of several scholarship funds which can be viewed via a link on the Town’s website.

The Trust Fund Advisory Committee is responsible for the oversight of several scholarship funds which can be viewed via a link on the Town’s website. 198 2021 ANNUAL REPORT TOWN OF BARNSTABLE 199 CREATE AND PRESERVE AFFORDABLE HOUSING The Town Council. established the Affordable Housing/Growth and Development Trust Fund Board (Trust), in 2007 (Town Council Order 2007-158) by accepting the provisions of M.G.L c. 44 s.55C, which authorizes the creation of a municipal affordable housing trust. The establishment of the Trust allows the Town to collect funds for affordable housing, segregate those funds into a trust fund, and then use those funds to create and preserve affordable housing. In Fiscal Year 2020, the Trust was appropriated $2.5 million in Community Preservation Act (CPA) funds for the creation, acquisition, preservation, and support of community housing. During Fiscal Year 2021, the Trust focused on increasing the affordable housing stock in response to the heightened and ongoing housing availability and affordability crisis exacerbated by the pandemic. The Trust issued a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) which sought applications to provide gap funding to support the development of affordable and community housing through the redevelopment of existing structures or buildings, the conversion of existing market rate units to affordable housing units, the acquisition of land and the construction of new housing. Additionally, funding was available for pre-development work to determine the viability of residential affordable housing development on a site as well as for the preservation of existing affordable housing units. By the end of Fiscal Year 2021, the Trust had awarded $1.4 million to Standard Holdings, LLC for the creation of ten (10) affordable rental units to be affordable in perpetuity for households earning 50% or below of the area median income (AMI). The affordable rental units are to be located at 850 Falmouth Road, Hyannis, MA within a proposed fifty-three (53) unit multifamily housing development. A previously approved loan to the Cape and Islands Veterans Outreach Center, Inc. for $90,000 in support of the creation of five (5) single room occupancy units for homeless veterans to be located at 1341 Route 134, Dennis, MA was converted into a grant, subject to the execution of an affordable housing restriction, ensuring the affordability of those units in perpetuity. In addition to these funding activities, the Trust actively sought partnerships to leverage Community Preservation Act (CPA) funds by initiating contact with Massachusetts Housing Partnership (MHP) to explore the possibility of Barnstable becoming one of the Gateway cities to use MHP’s ONE + Mortgage program which when combined with the use of CPA funds, significantly increases the buying power of income-eligible purchasers, helping to bridge the affordability gap. Recognizing that the disposition of surplus town land could help incentivize the development of affordable housing, the Trust worked with the Town’s Asset Management Division to review several town-owned parcels that may potentially be suitable for disposition for the development of affordable housing. These parcels are also candidates for the use of predevelopment funds to evaluate development feasibility.

Strategic use of the BPS Operating Budget, along with supplemental state and federal funding provided necessary staffing, technology, materials, personal protective equipment, and operational items to safely reopen schools. Dedicated stakeholders spent countless hours to develop reopening scenarios and recommendations. On September 16, 2020, Barnstable Public Schools reopened with three learning models - in-person, hybrid and remote. By October 13, BPS was able to provide students with in-person learning in alignment with its reopening plan. Each school spent the first six weeks of school focusing on building relationships with students. This included using positive teacher language to establish high academic and behavioral expectations, getting students excited about schoolwork by offering engaging academics, and teaching the classroom and academic routines that enable a collaborative learning environment to thrive. STUDENTS AND STAFF Student enrollment in Barnstable Public Schools spans across nine schools from preschool to Grade 12+. During the 2020-21 school year, 4,713 students were enrolled. During the year, enrollment declined by 300 students, with twice as many students enrolling in home schooling (total number of students enrolled in home schooling = 224). Barnstable Public Schools has 408 full time teachers, 83% of whom are experienced educators. The school department’s teacher retention rate is 90%. In total, the district has 775 employees, including all educators and support staff. STUDENT PERFORMANCE ON MCAS The COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on the 2020-21 school year. MCAS data reported below may have been affected by the pandemic. The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) has asked communities to please keep this in mind when reviewing the data, and take particular care when comparing data over multiple school years. Below is the percentage of students scoring at each achievement level on the English language arts, mathematics, and science MCAS tests. FISCAL YEAR 21 BUDGET The school department’s FY21 operating budget was developed to be sensitive to the impacts COVID-19 had on the most vulnerable students within the district while providing a fiscally responsible budget, all within an uncharted fiscal environment. The department’s budget increased by $2,035,764 or 2.81%. In FY21 the school department received $6,500,000 in grant funding: $5,200,000 Million was Federally funded $978,000 was State funded $357,000 was Locally/Privately funded The federal, state, local and private grant funds helped schools provide a variety of summer enrichment programs and activities. Additionally, funds were used to increase the number of educators and support staff, as well as purchases for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), supplies for the meal program, student technology devices, software subscriptions to assist with remote learning options, and materials to meet students’ social and emotional learning needs. The Enoch Cobb Trust graciously provided the BPS school community with $250,000 to provide students with a variety of learning experiences. Career pathways at Barnstable High School also received a variety of grants to help implement and enhance new and existing student experiences. With grant funds we were able to purchase materials for C.N.A students to practice their nursing skills. The Business/Entrepreneurship Pathway received funding to assist with educator training, software licensing, and implementing the school-based enterprises. The Environmental Science Pathway received funding for lab supplies such as water quality testing equipment, scales/meters, fish, fish food, plants, etc. The Engineering Pathway received funding for lab equipment such as 3D printers. The Hospitality Pathway received funds to purchase culinary equipment and supplies.

Superintendent of Schools FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT BARNSTABLE PUBLIC SCHOOLS Vision The Barnstable Public Schools educates the whole child by creating a student centered school culture that addresses students' physical, social, emotional, and academic needs by creating a safe and healthy learning environment in which students are challenged, supported, and engaged Accomplishments Connecting students to career pathways is a priority area for Barnstable Public Schools (BPS). During the 2019-20 school year BPS expanded career pathways to include Business and Entrepreneurship, and Environmental Science and Technology. Students can now learn in a state-of-the-art laboratory and adjacent 24’ x 48’ greenhouse made possible by $300,000 in Massachusetts Skills Capital Grants, $15,000 in Cobb Grants, and an $1,222,700 appropriation by the Town Council in Capital Funds to design, construct, and equip the classroom laboratory. BPS also received an Innovation Pathway designation from the Baker-Polito Administration for its pathway in Business, Entrepreneurship & Finance that will serve 200 students when fully enrolled. BPS is partnering with MassHire Cape and Islands and the Greater Hyannis Chamber of Commerce, along with the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) to provide students with entrepreneurial education opportunities, including internships with area businesses. These additional pathways add to the current pathways of Engineering; Computer Science; Law, Society and Criminal Justice; Health Careers; Culinary Arts and Hospitality; and Early Education & Care. Through its partnership with Cape Cod Community College, many BPS students earn college credit through dual enrollment courses that align with career pathway interest. Career awareness and pathways are not limited to students in Barnstable High School. Barnstable Intermediate School is the recipient of a 3-year grant from American Student Assistance to incorporate career exploration at the middle school level. BHS Career Ambassadors have been established to introduce 6th and 7th grade students to the high school pathways, internships, and other opportunities in their near future. The results of this work are evident as 126 of the 358 6th grade students showed interest in taking part in a new 7th grade elective, Pathfinder, that was developed to provide a deeper dive into career exploration during the 2020-2021 school year. In September 2019, the Barnstable Community Innovation School (BCIS) opened its doors to students. Located at the former BCHMCPS site, BCIS is a school of choice, where families from all seven villages of Barnstable can enter a lottery for enrollment. BCIS implements Project Based Learning to provide enrichment opportunities for all, and cultivates community connections through Enrichment Clusters, a community garden, and community service projects. Responding to the Global Pandemic BPS adjusted its priorities in light of the global pandemic. Supporting the social, emotional, behavioral, and academic needs of student included increasing access to meals and technology. Over the course of school closure, BPS Food Services provided more than 195,000 meals to students. Additionally, BPS partnered with USDA for Farm to Families providing 780 farmer’s market style boxes of fresh produce every week. The Barnstable Teachers’ Association led weekly food donations to support the needs of families. When BPS schools closed on March 13, 2020 due to COVID-19, school and district technology staff worked to get laptops to all students. Close to 5,000 students received Chromebooks and iPads to engage in online learning. Schools pivoted to remote learning and student support. Families and students were surveyed on a regular basis to determine how students were engaging in online learning, and to seek feedback from families on ways BPS could improve the experiences of students. FY21 Priorities Reopening schools to in-person learning for School Year 2020-21 was the key priority for FY 21. Strategic use of the BPS Operating Budget, along with supplemental state and federal funding provided necessary staffing, technology, materials, personal protective equipment, and operational items to safely reopen schools.
