FROM THE TOWN MANAGER Dear Reader:
Spring is in the air and new beginnings are around every corner. The
DPW is starting their annual clean-up activities and economic activity is
blooming all over town. We will look forward to watching things flourish
as the season progresses.
We presented the Capital Improvements Plan to the Town Council on
March 7th and the first public hearing is scheduled for April 4th. We will
be submitting the Operating Budget to the Town Council in May.
Congratulations to the Barnstable Youth Commission on their successful
5th Annual 7th Grade Youth Summit. It is inspiring to see our youth taking a leadership role with such a
challenging and life changing subject.
National Volunteer Week this year is recognized during April 7-13, 2019. This year’s theme is “Volunteers
Making A Difference Every Moment”. On behalf of the Town of Barnstable, I would like to publicly thank
all of those volunteers who give countless hours to serve on our various boards, committees and
commissions. And where would we be without the dedicated volunteers who work with our Recreation
Division’s Beach Sticker/Parking Permit program? Or our Senior Services volunteers who do everything
from greeting visitors at the front desk to driving the Silver Express van and Toyota Camry to helping
prepare taxes during this time of year? Or those volunteers who work assisting our staff with our Shellfish
propagation program? The Barnstable Police Department’s Volunteers in Police Service (VIPS) is widely
recognized as an outstanding volunteer program with volunteers serving at the front desk and as couriers
and they are a vital part of the Hyannis Main Street and West Villages Police Substations. Barnstable
Public Schools have hundreds of volunteers on a daily basis. We are truly grateful for all of you who give
back to your community and we hope that you will continue to do so. Thank you for your service!
Happy Spring!

A FRIENDLY REMINDER FROM THE TOWN COLLECTOR:
Fourth Quarter Real Estate and Personal Property Tax bills are due May 1, 2019.
The first commitment of 2019 Motor Vehicle Excise Tax bills were issued on February 22, 2019
and were due on March 22, 2019. There was also a commitment from 2018 issued at the same time.
There are several commitments issued each year for the current year and also for prior years. These bills
should be paid timely to avoid interest and penalties. If a bill is issued, it does not go away. You must
pay the excise or file for an abatement with the Assessor’s office if you no longer own the vehicle and

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call the Town Collector’s office at 508-

Welcome to Spring! It’s the time of year for growth and new beginnings. At
Barnstable Public Schools, spring is a time when we are looking forward and
planning for the next school year. School Administration and the School Committee
are currently focusing on the 2019-2020 School Operating Budget and Capital
Improvement Plan budget.
2019-2020 School Operating Budget
On April 3rd, the School Committee will vote to approve the 2019-2020 School
Operating Budget. The budget process began in October 2018 and after the April
3rd vote by the School Committee, the budget will go to the Town Council for
discussion and adoption. Over the past several months, the Deputy Director of
Finance and I have discussed enrollment projections, student demographics,
operating resources, operating expenses, vacancies, and program reallocations and changes.
The school operating budget is proposed to be $72,034,000, which is a 2.26% increase from last year’s
budget. A large portion of this increase will be allocated to employee contractual salaries and wages. A
few key personnel requests include an Assistant Principal at Hyannis West Elementary School, a Project
Based Learning Coach for the Barnstable Community Innovation School, and a Family Engagement
Coordinator for our new registration center at Hyannis Youth and Community Center. Program changes
include an elementary writing program, and continued updates to technology. The budget is developed
based on the needs of the districts’ students and how to best use the resources allotted to the School
Department. We are committed to the learning and growth of all students while keeping the student’s
needs at the center of all decision making.
Capital Improvement Plan
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) involves all of the Town’s departments submitting requests to the Town
Administration. After a careful evaluation and ranking process by a task force, the recommendations are
forwarded to the Town Manager. The top School Department projects to be considered by the Town
Council include:
Barnstable High School Environmental Lab
Districtwide Communication, Video Surveillance & Entry
Improvements
Hyannis West Elementary School Roof Replacement
Centerville Elementary School Roof Replacement
Barnstable High and Intermediate Schools Top Unit
Ventilator Replacement
Centerville Elementary School Unit Ventilator Upgrades
Barnstable High School Synthetic Turf Replacement
Barnstable High School Sports Field Engineering and
Upgrades
Districtwide Mechanical Upgrades
After months of evaluating and reviewing budget requests, both in the School Department and with the
Town Administrators, our budget planning is coming to fruition. I would like to thank Deputy Director of
Finance Gareth Markwell, Director of Facilities David Kanyock, the School Committee, School
Administration, and Town Administration for all their hard work and thoughtful conversations on making the
Barnstable Public Schools a great place for our students and staff.

Donald Gauland, Ink Painter, Art Exhibit at Barnstable Town Hall, 2
nd Floor meeting rooms
now through April 18th, 2019
The "Art on Loan" program displays the works of local artists on meeting
room walls in Barnstable Town Hall. Artwork by Donald Gauland is now
on display in the Barnstable Town Hall, through April 18, 2019.
Donald Gauland is a self-taught artist and a passionate student of Eastern philosophy, who works
principally in colored inks on mulberry paper and acrylic on canvas.
Donald’s artistic journey began 1985 with watercolor collages. A life-long interest in Eastern philosophies
and his practice of T'ai Chi Ch'uan and Chi Kung, he was inspired to work in ink and paint abstract
expressions.
He paints with “chi (energy), jing (essence) and shen (spirit) to
create abstract images of growth, stability, and balance.”
Each original painting is signed and dated with the Chinese
year and stamped with his artistic seal.
In addition to painting, Donald plays alto sax and percussion in
the Barnstable Town Band, as well as in the Cape Cod Concert
Band and Cape Community Orchestra. He also enjoys
improvisatory Irish sessions playing bodhran and rhythm
bones. You will find Donald on the Hyannis Village Green every
Wednesday in July and August during the Barnstable Town
Band concerts. Donald and his wife will be in the Hyannis HyArts
Artist shanties for a stay in June and then again in September.
His wife Janet is a percussionist in the Barnstable Town Band and is an artist as well, channeling her
creativity as a jewelry designer.
The Barnstable Town Hall exhibit is open to the public and on display now through April 18, 2019, in the
Barnstable Town Hall Hearing Room and Selectmen’s Conference Room, 2nd Floor, Barnstable Town Hall,
367 Main Street, Hyannis. There is complimentary parking in the Town Hall parking lot. Town Hall is open
Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM-4:30 PM (except State and Federal holidays) and frequently opens during
evening hours for scheduled meetings.
