Dear Citizens of Fort Fairfield, it is my honor to present to you the financial information as prepared by the
Auditors of Felch & Company, LLC, certified public accountants for the fiscal year end June 30, 2019. For this
fiscal year the Town of Fort Fairfield’s net position increased from $6,482,691 to $6,564,169.

The Town’s budget surplus of $63,922 will be utilized to offset decreased revenues from the State to help
balance the budget for fiscal year 2019/2020 and rebuild our capital improvement accounts. This enables us to
continue to provide the services the citizens require and properly maintain our vehicles, equipment and
properties.

The Town of Fort Fairfield is a Town Council-Town Manager form of government. The Town Manager is the
chief administrative officer for the Town, responsible to the Town Council for the management of all Town
affairs as provided for in the Town Charter. The Town Manager, working with the individual Town Department
Directors, is also responsible for the performance of all Town departments.

It has been my pleasure to work for the Town Council, Town Staff and the Citizens of Fort Fairfield. The
dedication and hard work have been evident throughout my time here. I have seen and experienced an
undeniable passion for the ensuing possibilities for Fort Fairfield and a continued investment in this
community’s development.

I have enjoyed the conversations and opportunities to meet with the Citizens of Fort Fairfield and I would
encourage all of you to stop by the Town Office with your questions, comments and concerns so we may all
work together to strengthen and build this community in its future growth and development.

Yours truly,
Andrea L. Powers, MPA
Town Manager

Dear Friends,

As I travel Maine, I hear from people who live in every corner of our state. I hear about their achievements,
their successes, their work to improve their communities – I hear about the hope they have for our state. I also
hear about our challenges, and all the work we have left to do. As I see it, that’s my job: to listen to you, act
where I can to build on what’s good, and work on the tough parts. As 2018 comes to a close, I wanted to take a
moment to share an update on some of the work we’re doing in Washington to lift up the accomplishments of
Maine people and make progress on the challenges they face.

From Portland to Presque Isle, from Milo to Camden, I hear about the pain that the opioid epidemic is
inflicting on Maine communities. I’ve met with Maine people in recovery, family members of those struggling
with substance use disorders, treatment providers, and law enforcement officials to learn about their
experiences with this terrible disease, and everyone agrees that in order to fully respond to these problems, we
need a stronger federal effort to end the opioid epidemic. Fortunately, some help is on the way – in October,
we overwhelmingly passed a sweeping, bipartisan opioids bill. I’ve pushed hard for this type of legislation and
was proud to have provisions I’ve advocated for included in the bill. These priorities have been guided by the
voices of Maine people, and we’ll keep working to confront this tragic problem.

I’ve also worked to strengthen the future of our forest economy. Maine’s forests have powered our state’s
economy for generations, especially in our rural communities. So, when rapid shifts in the market led to the
closure of many pulp and paper mills and biomass power plants, it required a collaborative approach to support
future growth in this important industry. That’s why, together with the other members of the state’s
Congressional delegation, I pushed to establish the Economic Development Assessment Team (EDAT). This
integrated, multiagency effort aims to foster innovation and commercialization in Maine’s forest economy, and
we’re already seeing the benefits: in recent months, several forest industry businesses have announced
significant investments into Maine operations, and in September 2018, the Forest Opportunity Roadmap
(FOR)/Maine released an action plan to make sure this industry, and the rural communities it supports, can
continue to thrive for generations to come.

As I close this letter, please allow me to express my gratitude to each of you – for your dedication to our state,
and to one another. It’s often said that Maine is like a big small town (with very long streets) — that’s because
at our heart, we’re one big community. It’s not only a pleasure to serve you – it’s a pleasure to know you.
Thank you for being the reason Maine is so special. Mary and I hope that 2019 will be a good year for you,
your family, your community, and our great State.

Best,

Angus S. King
United States Senator

Dear Friends,

I hope this letter finds you well. As I am settling into my new role as your representative, I wanted to give you an
update on what we are doing in D.C. and in Maine this year.

My first priority is to be accessible to you and to our communities, which is why I have opened offices throughout
the Second District at the following locations:

        Caribou Office: 7 Hatch Drive, Suite 230, Caribou ME 04736. Phone: 207) 492-6009
        Lewiston Office: 179 Lisbon Street, Lewiston ME 04240. Phone: (207) 241-6767
        Bangor Office: 6 State Street, Bangor ME 04401. Phone: (207) 249-7400

My team and I are here to serve you, so please come meet my staff, voice an opinion, inform us of local events, or
seek assistance with federal benefits. I come home to Maine every weekend to hear from you and see what’s
happening in our communities. I appreciate you keeping us informed.

This year, I was proud to be appointed to the House Armed Services and Small Business Committees. On Armed
Services, I’m using my experience serving in Iraq and Afghanistan to make sure our servicemembers have the
resources and training they need to succeed and keep us safe. Within Armed Services, I was assigned to the
Seapower Subcommittee, where I am fighting for our shipyard jobs and making sure our military can count on Bath-
built ships for generations to come. Beyond Bath, I will advocate for the entire network of good Maine jobs that
support our troops, equipping them to carry out their duties reliably and safely.

Maine would just not be the same without our small, family-owned businesses. On the Small Business Committee, I
am working to ensure our small businesses have the tools to grow, look out for their workers, and provide more
good jobs to people all over Maine. Within the Small Business Committee, I was honored to be appointed Chairman
of the Subcommittee on Contracting and Infrastructure. With this position, I am highlighting the need for
infrastructure investment and fighting to level the playing field when small businesses compete for federal contracts.

One thing I love about Maine is that we help each other out. Whether it’s ensuring a job well done or lending a hand
to a neighbor, I know you are strengthening our communities every day. I am proud to serve alongside you and look
forward to all that we will accomplish together.

My wife Isobel and I wish you and your family happiness, health, and success in the year to come.

Sincerely,

Jared Golden
Member of Congress

Dear Fort Fairfield Neighbors:

Thank you for the opportunity to continue to serve the residents of Fort Fairfield in the 129th Legislature. It is truly
an honor to serve our community in the Maine House of Representatives.

Over the course of this last year, we took up more than 2,000 separate pieces of legislation covering a wide variety
of topics. Top priorities included bringing relief from the opioid crisis, reducing student debt, repairing our roads
and bridges, increasing protections for workers and consumers, getting prescription drug costs under control,
protecting the independence of seniors and making sure we are caring for our neighbors with disabilities.

We also passed a balanced, bipartisan state budget for the next two years and did so in a way that increased revenue
sharing and the homestead exemption for all Maine towns.

I am pleased to have been appointed to serve on the Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry Committee and the
Education and Cultural Affairs Committee. We worked on policies around food safety, inspection and labeling, the
dairy industry, pesticide regulation, farmland preservation, state parks, historic sites, public lands, forest products
and the Land for Maine’s Future Program on the ACF Committee. The Education and Cultural Affairs Committee
worked on policy regarding the state Department of Education, along with the university and community college
system, the Maine Arts Commission, Maine State Library and the Maine State Museum.

For me, one of the best moments of this session was submitting a bill to improve the teacher evaluation system by
putting a stop to using test scores in the teacher review process. I was proud to submit this bill on behalf of Maine
teachers, and I am thankful that my colleagues saw its importance. The bill is now law.

Whether we are dealing with the above issues or any other topic, I will continue to work with all of my colleagues,
regardless of party affiliation, to make sure we’re doing the best work we can for the people of our district and all
the people of Maine.

Please contact me if I can be of any help or if you want to discuss or testify on any legislation. My email is
David.McCrea@legislature.maine.gov. My phone number is 207-227-4903. I also send out e-newsletters from time
to time. Let me know if you would like to receive them.

Respectfully,

David McCrea

Exemptions for Veterans and Widows/Widowers of Veterans

Equalization Program

                                                     17
The State of Maine has mandated that all municipalities must achieve certain minimum assessing
standards. Included in these assessing standards is a provision for a physical inspection and inventory of
each real parcel and personal property account at least every 4 years.

Fort Fairfield has complied with the State law by enacting what is termed an “Equalization Program.”
Every year at least one-fourth of all property in the Town will be reviewed to note any physical changes
that have occurred, and the valuation will be adjusted up or down accordingly.

The Town of Fort Fairfield completed a town wide revaluation for the assessment date of April 1, 1998.
Pricing schedules created at that time have been used in the pricing of land and buildings for assessment
purposes. The pricing schedule was modified for the assessments starting on April 1, 2005 by indexing
Residential Structures that were C Grade or better by 10%. The pricing schedule was also modified for
the assessments starting on April 1, 2008 by indexing all land by 25% and all prime tillable was indexed
an additional 25% starting on April 1, 2015.

The Town of Fort Fairfield has begun a town wide revaluation for the assessment date of April 1, 2020.
The revaluation will create new pricing schedules to be used in the pricing of land and buildings for
assessment purposes.

If any taxpayer would like further information on the above described programs or would like to have any
question answered, please feel free to contact the Assessor’s Office at any time at 472-3805.

       I am pleased to present the annual report for the Fort Fairfield Public Library for Fiscal
Year 2018/2019.

       Over the last several years, we have seen an amazing increase in the use of the library,
especially in our digital online offerings, such as our eBooks, digital archives and our new
website. Our digital archives are seeing more than 1700 individual users a year.

       We had over 1700 individual users of Fort Fairfield Digital Archives, with more than
3500 sessions during the fiscal year, which is more than triple previous years.

        Our programming continued strong with lots of children’s activities. We are looking
forward to adding more adult programming in the coming year such as basic computer classes,
more genealogy classes, and other programming, and in addition more and expanded children’s
offerings.

      In May, our longtime library aide, Janet Owens retired. We will greatly miss her book
recommendation expertise and memory of historical happenings and people.

       Increased use of the library created a need for more staff. We are happy to welcome Lynn
Cote as our archival aide, Donna Murray as the Circulation Aide and Robert Hohman as our
Adult and Children’s Programming aide. The additions to staff allow us to each better focus on
your individual needs, we are here to help.

        We hope that you will stop by and visit with us. The staff and I will be glad to help with
anything you need, be it resume building, computers and copies, town history, genealogy or just
a quiet place to read or work. The library is here and welcoming to all residents of the town and
surrounding areas. As a reminder, we accept donations of books, audio-books on CD, and
DVD/Blu-ray movies anytime. These donations are either added to our collection or used for our
fall book sale to generate revenue that goes towards programming and new book additions.

Respectfully,
Jennifer Gaenzle
Library Director

It's my honor to present to the resident of Fort Fairfield this year's annual report for the year ending June
30, 2019.

In December of 2018, the Fort Fairfield Police Department began operating as a twenty-four-hour agency.
Previously, an officer was only on-duty for eighteen hours a day. This new schedule was only possible by
hiring an additional full-time officer. Officer Jesse Cormier has filled this position as the newest member
of our department.

Since the inception of this new schedule, officers are patrolling our streets all hours of the night. We have
seen a reduction in crime and an increase in drug seizures and arrest by having a twenty-four-hour patrol.

It’s my goal to seek out all avenues of funds for purchases that need to be made for the police through
grants or other external funding sources for equipment and extra patrolling.

Federal monies were received through the Stonegarden Grant to assist with cross border crimes. This
fiscal year, $6,000.00 in grant funding for enforcement and safety programs was received. An additional
grant provided almost $3,000.00 for school safety supplies.

I will continue to pursue all avenues of funding to help offset the costs to our citizens.

My officers and I continue to stay engaged with the student body and staff in the Fort Fairfield School
System. I firmly believe that our interactions with the students and staff in all grade levels, has a positive
effect on our youth and our community. Our frequent visits build strong relationships with the school's
administration and staff members; but most importantly, our student body.

I will continue to expect nothing but the best from myself and my officers for our community and its
citizens. It’s truly an honor to serve as Chief of Police.

Sincerely,

Shawn D. Newell
Chief of Police

                                              It is my pleasure to present this Annual Report to the
                                              residents of Fort Fairfield from July 2018 to June
                                              2019.

                                              Another busy and productive year has passed. Our
                                              department continues moving forward, while
                                              working to become better trained to respond to
                                              emergencies in our community.

                                             This year we received over $2,500 in grant monies
                                             from the Aroostook County Fire Chiefs Association
and $3,960 The State of Maine Volunteer Assistance Grant. These grants have helped our
department with the purchase of fire prevention materials, forestry and extrication personal
protective gear. It is my intention to keep seeking alternative funds through grants and
donations. We have applied through the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) in 2018 for a
vehicle grant which was turned down and a SCBA grant which is still in the process.

Our Fire Prevention outreach this year was very well received from the students at our
elementary school. We taught many fire prevention classes promoting our yearly fire prevention
theme (Look, Listen, Learn, be aware fire can happen anywhere). This theme was about being
prepared for emergencies. We had school visits at the station. This year I had a fire safety trailer
here for the students to learn about fire prevention and demonstrate fire drills in the home. We
ended the week with our Annual Open House at the fire station which was well attended. It is
through our community outreach that helps to reduce the fire related incidents in our community.

The volunteers gave back to the Community through their Annual School Scholarship for a
graduating senior. All their fundraising throughout the year goes to fund this scholarship. There
is always a turnover of volunteer firefighter staffing, but we continue to recruit new members to
help with our staffing here at the department. Our volunteers have spent numerous hours
training each week to enhance their overall skills as firefighters. We have also done joint
departmental trainings to increase our working abilities with our surrounding departments. In
additions to all the training, our staff has volunteered at many community events. They provided
staffing to run the pump station during our spring ice out season, various parades, community
outreach, mashed potato wrestling and other community events.
                                                  26
The department had another successful Maine Potato Blossom Festival. The Annual mashed
potato wrestling was well received, and we had our highest entry of contestants since we have
been doing this event.

Our emergency call volume was up this year with various emergencies and fires. Our
firefighters have done a great job, and I am extremely proud of the work they have done.

The Town has transitioned our EMS coverage from Northern Light Health to the City of Presque
Isle back in May. We hope in the future to look at our own Career fire based EMS service.

In closing I am looking forward to this coming year, and I am optimistic that we will have
another great year serving our community.

Sincerely,

Vincent E. Baldwin

    It is with great pleasure that I submit this annual report to the Town Manager, Town Council and to
the Citizens of Fort Fairfield for the period of July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019. I am also pleased to inform
you the citizens of Fort Fairfield that our Department was able to complete our fiscal year on budget.

   In the past year Public Works has kept up with the patching on our roads, shimmed over many cross
pipes to improve ride, paved edges, ditched and replaced pipes to improve drainage on the West Road
while preparing for one of the largest construction projects Public Works has ever taken on by themselves
which is the replacement of the pipe at Everett Brook on the Currier road.

   The 2018/2019 winter season was one of the most challenging winters that we have had in many years,
extreme fluctuations in temperature, frequency of storms and high winds were just a few of the issues that
resulted in us using twenty five percent more sand than in years past.

   This concludes the annual report for the 2018/2019 year; please feel free to contact me if you have any
questions or concerns regarding the operation of your Public Works Department. On behalf of the crew
and me we look forward to serving the citizens of Fort Fairfield in the upcoming years.

Respectfully Submitted

It has been a whirlwind of a year in Fort Fairfield, and it is already time for another annual
report! I present the annual report for the Parks and Recreation Department, for fiscal year
ending June 30, 2019.

The department consists of one full time year round employee (Parks and Recreation Director)
and several seasonal/part-time employees. We also have numerous volunteers that assist with
programs throughout the year. They help with program supervision, field maintenance, coaching,
concessions, organization and planning, and so much more! Without our staff and volunteers,
quality recreational programming would not be possible. Thank you to all of you!

The total operating budget expense for Fiscal Year 2018-19 totaled $122,466 which is
approximately $35.00 per citizen of Fort Fairfield. Revenues to help offset some of these
expenditures are generated from program fees, private sponsorships, and from various grant
opportunities when available.

Partnerships are a vital component of the Parks and Recreation Department as we continue to
work effectively with many local, regional, and state clubs and organizations as part of a
continued effort to provide additional affordable quality recreational opportunities for our
citizens. Some of these partnerships include: Maine Recreation and Park Association, Northern
Maine Community Recreation Association, Nordic Heritage Sport Club, SAD #20, Aroostook
Valley Country Club, Frontier Fish and Game Club, Knights of Columbus, Fort Fairfield
Snowmobile Club, Fort Fairfield ATV Club, Cary Medical Center, The Aroostook Medical
Center, Fort Fairfield Sunshine Club, and the Fort Fairfield Boy Scouts. We will be looking to
expand upon our partnerships in the future.

The Parks and Recreation Department continues to concentrate its resources towards providing
quality recreation and leisure programs, activities, events, and opportunities for the citizens of
this community. Some of the programs, events, and activities that this department helps to
provide throughout the year include the following:

On behalf of the 72nd Maine Potato Blossom Festival Committee, I proudly present the following
Annual Report for the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2019.

Returning to Fort Fairfield in mid-march this year to act as the director of the Maine Potato
Blossom Festival was like a “Homecoming” for me. Being a native of Fort Fairfield and owning
a business there for (12) years plus acting as the Chamber Director for (5) years, gave me the
opportunity to be involved in the planning of this wonderful old family tradition that celebrates
our Agricultural roots here in Aroostook County.

The 72nd Maine Potato Blossom Festival was a huge success again this year and drew thousands
of visitors from all over the State of Maine as well as the West coast.

Visitors were able to enjoy over (75) events, delicious food from our expanded food court,
excellent entertainment, and old favorites like the mash potato wrestling, parade, pageants, arts
& crafts, family fun night, potato picking contest and so much more!

Due to the generosity of LaJoie Electric we were able to install all new lightening in our food
court and beer garden area. A much needed improvement.

We are most grateful for all our faithful sponsors as well as many new sponsors this year that
help support and make this annual event possible. Along with the many volunteers who give so
freely of their time and talents to keep this old tradition sustainable and growing each year in
Fort Fairfield.

Our goals for the 73rd Maine Potato Blossom Festival are to continue to help grow the Festival
and build an awareness of the value placed on Maine Farmers and role they play in providing
food for our tables. We also look forward to celebrating the 200 th Birthday of our great State of
Maine and have planned many events surrounding this milestone.

I look forward to another exciting year as Director of the 73 rd Maine Potato Blossom Festival. It
is truly a team effort.

Regards,
Cheryl Boulier, Director
