NOTE: Why get connected with the "Berlin, Vermont" facebook page?  There are often some great photos shared!  Those who are connected are apt to see/hear about the news first.  Sometimes it's news that never makes it here in "News to Know" as it's old by the time I'm ready to send out my next issue... or it's something that I just choose not to include.

Below there is news regarding a reduction in nurse coverage at Berlin Elementary in the fall.  I thought some folks might appreciate a few more details. 
The Berlin Elementary School budget which was passed on Town Meeting Day 2014 for the upcoming school year included several cuts.  The art teacher was cut back an additional day from .8 to .6, the physical education teacher was cut from 1.0  to .8), and the preschool program had cuts which mean they're not able to have 3 year olds attend this coming fall.  The nurse went from a full time position to a .8 position.  Since Town Meeting, a paraeducator position has also been eliminated.  Meanwhile, a halftime Special Educator position has been added to be filled, as well as a fulltime behavioral specialist (although the person filling the position will only be at the school four days per week).
Of note, out of about 1,800 registered voters, only 423 voted on Town Meeting Day. 
The Berlin Elementary School Board meets the second Monday of every month at 6:15pm in the Learning Center of the school.  The meetings are open to all.  Over the summer the schedule may vary.  Agendas are posted on the school website.  Approved minutes are also posted, draft minutes must be requested.

Fall

By Savannah Anthony

When the leaves turn
brown and die,
we ask, can we go

take a stroll back to July,
when our grass
was living,

or to June when the
water was warm to
go take a dip in old
shallow creek,

listening to chirping
birds sing their song,
and now we sit and
watch them….gone

running around
the weeping
willow, laughing,
telling secrets,

when I go to bed I
pray that summer
will come back,

before the crunch
of fall leaves, but
right now all I
have is memories

ONION RIVER EXCHANGE - WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT
The Onion River Exchange is a time bank that exchanges skills, talents, and services using time instead of money.  Members post offers and requests and log time earned using an online system to be used for future exchanges with any member.  Every hour is equal.  There are over 500 members with 28 participating towns in Central Vermont.  For more information, check out their website: http://www.orexchange.org
Recently, there was a wonderful letter to the editor that I thought did a great job explaining how it works:
Recently Retired, What to do?  I Joined the Onion River Exchange Time Bank!
My name is Gail and I joined Onion River Exchange time bank in December of 2012. 
I joined the time bank because I had recently retired and as the saying goes, "twice as much time, and half as much money." I loved the concept of exchanging time instead of dollars.  When I first joined, I had to decide what it was that I was going to offer.  So, I decided to offer cookie baking, organizing consultations, and decorating consultations.  I did many cookie baking exchanges and a couple of organizing exchanges.  However, once I got involved, my offerings turned into caring for needs as members would post requests.  So I have ended up doing laundry, marketing, typing, rides to the airport, eBay tutoring, volunteering help to the time bank through group projects (i.e. - our yard sale fundraiser) orientation coaching, committee work, sewing & alterations, companionship, help with household chores, tabling for ORE, I was on an ORE Presentation Panel, helped deciphering a credit union problem, and last but not least a member of the Board of Directors (currently as Secretary).
What it boils down to is once you see what needs doing, you realize that you have a lot of skills to offer!  As much fun as all those offers were to do, the best part is having ORE hours to SPEND on things I need or want!  Some folks say that there is nothing out there that they want or need.  Well, think again.  I peruse the OFFERs on the Onion River Exchange website (members post requests and offers) on a regular basis and listen to what I have taken advantage of over the past 15 months: I've had my car detailed, gotten a ride, had entertainment in the form of a folk singer who came to a party that I threw, attended an eight-hour retreat on mindfulness, had filing done, bicycle repair, make-up application lesson, life-coaching session, an herbal consultation, had a lemon pie made as well as donuts, upholstery cleaning, massages, Windows PC repair, house cleaning, help organizing, handyman work repairing a broken lamp, genealogical research and document retrieval, brow shaping, raking, spring gardening, weeding, safety check and tune up of two bikes, software trouble-shooting with a fix, and have had wonderful sourdough bread made for me.
I am looking forward to a couple of future exchanges where I am having a bedroom wallpapered and painted and a bureau refinished.  I may also be attending a six-week course on healthy eating and detox.  All of the above, I received with my time bank hours!  Needless to say, I have had a wonderful time as an ORE member over these past 15 months and truly believ3e that you get out of it whatever you put into it.  I highly recommend becoming a member of the Onion River Exchange Time bank.  It is a supportive, caring community of people who are ready and willing to lend a hand whenever needed.  The sky is the limit and I am planning to reach for the stars!

FREE SUMMER MEALS FOR KIDS (from the Berlin Elementary School newsletter)
Lynne Jakubauskas, RN
This summer, over 20 sites in Washington County will offer FREE meals for children ages
18 and under. The programs are open to the general public. Your child can participate, and there is no cost to you.  Meals will be served at Berlin Elementary School, Monday through Friday, June 30th to August 15th  (no meals on July 4th).
Breakfast will be available 9:00 – 9:30 and Lunch 12:00 – 12:30. Meals are available on a walk-in basis, but calling ahead is even better so Deeann Fassett can be sure to have enough meals for everyone. She can be reached at (802) 461-5668.
Other WSCU sites for breakfast and lunch are U-32 and Doty School. U-32 will offer meals July 7th  – August 15th  and the contact person is Virginia Burley (802) 223-3456. Doty School will offer meals June 23rd through August 3rd and the contact person is Kimberly Bolduc (802) 223-3456.
In Barre, lunch and snacks will be offered at the Aldrich Library, the Barre Pool, and
several other sites. For more information, contact Hunger Free Vermont at 802-865-0255 or www.vermontfoodhelp.com.
Summer can be a difficult time for some children. Not eating nutritionally balanced meals can lead to weight gain and to falling behind academically during the summer months. Please help your children to take advantage of the free meal and snack programs in the area this summer.
Healthy children are better learners! I hope you all have a happy, safe, and healthy summer!

2014-2015 SCHOOL NURSE COVERAGE (from the Berlin Elementary School newsletter)
Lynne Jakubauskas, RN, MSN, NCSN
Summer hasn’t started yet, but we’re already in full swing with planning for next year.
One of the many changes in store is a reduction in school nurse hours in four of the five WCSU elementary schools. At Berlin, there will be no school nurse on Thursdays next year.
What does this mean for you and your child? Several staff members will be taking First
Aid and CPR courses over the summer to prepare for illnesses and injuries that occur when there is no nurse in the building. Routine scheduled care, such as daily medications and treatments, will be delegated by the nurse to specific adults in the
school. The school nurses, along with WCSU’s Director of Special Services, have been working to create systems and resources to ensure the continued safety of all students. Please contact Lynne Jakubauskas if you have any questions or concerns.

MORE BOOM
MONTPELIER — Montpelier Alive says it’s giving folks what they want in this year’s Independence Day celebration: better fireworks and the parade route in front of the State House.
The group says those requests, which it consistently hears via public feedback, are being fulfilled July 3. 
This year, vendors will only be on the side of
State Street next to the Department of Motor Vehicles, the group says in a news release, and the vendor area will be extended down toward Bailey Avenue so there is plenty of room for the parade. “There will be plenty of activities, including the popular dunking booth at the west end of State Street to bring more people to the vendors located there,” the group says.
The annual fireworks show will also return to its original location on the parking platform at National Life Group, allowing for improved visibility all around town, says Montpelier Alive. 
The location for the platform is 500 feet higher and will allow Montpelier Alive to increase the fireworks event by 600 shots — with the help of Northstar Fireworks — making it the biggest show in a decade.
The July 3 celebration starts at
3 p.m. with activities on the State House lawn, including a Kid-Zone, pop-up science activities with the Montshire Museum, Laughing Yoga, the Capital City Band, many vendors and the Democracy Tent. 
The Montpelier Mile will take off at
6 p.m. at the roundabout on Main Street and proceed down State Street past the State House. 
At
7:30 p.m. Lowell Thompson and Crown Pilot will perform on the main stage of the State House lawn. Fireworks will shoot off at 9:30 p.m.
In the event of rain that day, all events will move to July 6.

Notes from Selectboard Meeting June 2 - FPF #369 June 15th

Jeremy Hansen • Selectboard Member, Berlin 
Our June 2nd meeting was fairly uneventful and short. Here are the highlights:
1) Purchasing Policy
In the past, we've discussed changing the process for purchasing equipment and supplies to include the use of purchase orders (POs), to ensure a clearer approval process and improve accountability for purchases. We expect to amend the Town's Purchasing Policy to include PO language soon, so that we can start using POs as early as July 1st. If you're interested in seeing the policy language, let me know and I'll forward it along.
-
2) Road Paving Projects
We discussed how the Town might spend our paving budget this year, which depends in part on whether or not we receive a paving grant from the State. (We received one last year, and towns usually only receive one every other year) Four candidate roads for repaving in the upcoming year (and their quoted costs) are the following:
a) Granger Road (from Airport Road to the end of the current pavement) - $207,000
b) Paine Turnpike N (from near the Water Treatment Plant north to the
Montpelier City line) - $300,000
c) Hersey Road (from the
Barre-Montpelier Road to the entrance of the Church of Latter-Day Saints) - $60,000
d) Crosstown Road (from Paine Turnpike N to
Hill Street) - $28,000
Of these roads, Hersey Road is easily the road most in need of repaving, in my opinion.
We have $140,000 in the budget for paving and such for the upcoming year, but I'd like to see us putting some of our annual funds away so that the repaving costs year after year aren't so shocking to the budget (and our property taxes). If you have thoughts about what ought to be paved and what we ought to wait on, let me know.
-
3) Highway Truck "cut through"
A resident that lives near the Town Offices asked about the feasibility of getting Highway Department trucks to exit directly onto Paine Turnpike North, rather than going on Shed Road and Crosstown Road before finally getting on Paine Tpk N. The appeal of this option is the traffic can be particularly heavy in the fall, and there are a number of children who live along that stretch. This was apparently an option when some construction at Maplewoods was going on a few years back. Given that there's some more development in the pipeline for that area, it may be possible again. One drawback to this is that it could provide easier access to steal from the Town garage and get right back on I-89. I'd appreciate any thoughts or feedback on this.
-
4) Future Agenda items
A few items that I asked to be included on future agendas: Local Option Tax and beginning the Town Charter change process. I've mentioned the Local Option here and at Town Meeting, and have been thinking that the Town could get to a 5-10% *decrease* in property taxes, with the additional revenues from the Local Option going into a reserve account for road paving and maintenance, as I mentioned in #2 above. (With current sales in Berlin, we should expect about 15% of our budget to be covered by revenues from the Local Option.)
-
The Town Charter needs a few administrative updates, and beyond those fairly basic changes, I have some language that I'd like to add. After an email conversation with Carl Parton and a few in-person chats with other residents, I think there's a decent compromise between folks who prefer the traditional Town Meeting (with floor votes on and modifications of the budget) and folks who prefer the simpler (but lower time commitment) of Australian ballot.
While this is not fully fleshed-out, here is the basic sequence:
1) The Selectboard finishes its budget (the "Selectboard Budget")
2) A Citizens' Budget Meeting open to all Berlin residents, is held on a Saturday afternoon, where the Selectboard Budget, presented by the Selectboard, is open for modification as it would be in a "traditional" Town Meeting. At the end of this meeting, the "Revised Budget" is complete, and may be lower or higher than the Selectboard Budget.
3) The total amounts and details of both budgets are on the warning for Town Meeting
4) Rather than a yes/no ballot, you could indicate your approval for any of the following options (see this link for what this might look like on a real ballot: http://bit.ly/BerlinBudgetApproval):
a) A budget figure higher than both the Selectboard Budget and the Revised Budget
b) The Selectboard Budget
c) The Revised Budget
d) A budget figure lower than both the Selectboard Budget and the Revised Budget
With this type of ballot, you could much more easily communicate what you think of the proposed budgets. Folks that want to get into the weeds of the budget would still have a public meeting to do so, and those who want to cast a simple ballot can still do so, too!
Whatever you think of this proposal, we will be putting together a Charter Change Committee, so if you're interested in serving on the committee, and helping to craft the rules by which the Town operates, please let me or any other Selectboard member know.
