Winthrop Public School Building Survey

The Winthrop Public Schools will conduct a community survey in regards to our school Rebuilding Process. The survey will begin Monday, July 25th and end on Monday August 8th.  The survey will assist the School Building Committee with which options to explore for the Feasibility Study for Winthrop High School.  In addition, the School Building Committee will conduct two public heargins.  The dates are Thursday, August 11th at 7pm and Tuesday August 16th at 7pm.  Both public hearings will be held in the Harvey Room at Town Hall.

Background

The Town of Winthrop submitted a request to the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) in 2006 for the renovation of Winthrop High School.  The MSBA subsequently voted to invite Winthrop into the MSBA's captial pipeline for a repair project at WHS in Oct 2007.  In recent months the School Building Committee has acknowledged that both the WHS and Winthrop Middle School are in need of major repaire/renovation.  The Town would like to explore the possibility of constructing a Middle-High School complex as opposed to renovating the existing buildings.  In March 2011, a letter was sent to MSBA requesting that Winthrop be allowed to explore the combined Middle-High School options, in addition to renovation, as part of the feasibility scope.  MSBA recently respond to the Town, that in order for us to add this as another option to explore, we must conduct an outreach to gauge community support.  Therefore we ask that you complet the survey on either the town of School website so the Building Committee can gauge our community support.  Please note all we are asking is whether you wish for the committee to explore this option.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER

For Immediate Release

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER

Tests Showed Coliform Bacteria in Winthrop Water

Our water system recently violated a drinking water standard. Although this incident was not an emergency, as our customers, you have a right to know what happened and what we did to correct this situation.

We routinely monitor for drinking water contaminants. We took 30 samples to test for the presence of coliform bacteria during the month of April. Two of our samples showed the presence of total coliform bacteria. The standard is that no more than one sample may do so.

What should I do?
You do not need to boil your water or take other corrective actions.

What does this mean?
This is not an emergency. If it had been you would have been notified within 24 hours. Total coliform bacteria are generally not harmful themselves. Coliforms are bacteria which are naturally present in the environment and are used as an indicator that other, potentially-harmful, bacteria may be present. Coliforms were found in more samples than allowed and this was a warning of potential problems.

Usually, coliforms are a sign that there could be a problem with the system’s treatment or distribution system (pipes). Whenever we detect coliform bacteria in any sample, we do follow-up testing to see if other bacteria of greater concern, such E. coli, are present. We did not find any of these bacteria in our subsequent testing.

What is being done?
On April 28, two samples were positive for total coliform, including one sample that was taken from an alternate site. On April 29, six repeat samples were taken to determine if there was an actual problem, and all came back clear of coliform. Therefore, no further action is required.

For more information, please contact Dave Hickey at 617-846-1341 or at Winthrop DPW, 100 Kennedy Drive, Winthrop, MA, 02152.

*  Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place.

Press Release: KRT Appraisal to Assist with Winthrop's Revaluation

Town of Winthrop Press Release

KRT APPRAISAL TO ASSIST WITH WINTHROP’S REVALUATION

The Town of Winthrop will be undertaking a revaluation update on all properties for Fiscal Year 2012. This update is part of an ongoing process, guided by The Department of Revenue regulations, to maintain proper values for all properties in Winthrop.

There are four major phases to a revaluation update being utilized: Data collection, Market Analysis, Valuation, and Field Review. The following is a general outline and explanation of each phase of the project. During these phases many tasks will be implemented in order to successfully complete the revaluation.

PHASE #1: DATA COLLECTION
KRT Appraisal’s staff will be conducting property inspections over the next couple of months. During this phase, Data Collectors will be going to 951 properties that have not had an inspection within the last nine years and physically inspect the interior and measure the exterior of each building. The Data Collectors note the buildings location, size, age, quality of construction, improvements, topography, utilities, zoning restrictions, if any, and numerous other characteristics both inside and out. To ensure that a home was inspected, the homeowner is asked to sign the data collection form to verify that the inspection took place. The entire process takes approximately 15 minutes for most properties.

All KRT Appraisal staff will carry Picture ID, Municipal Letters of Introduction, and have their vehicles listed with both the Assessor’s Office and Police Department

PHASE 2: MARKET ANALYSIS
A variety of resources are used to analyze the real estate market. Appraisal personnel will be analyzing recent sales that took place over the last few years to determine which market factors influenced property values. KRT Appraisal will gather and use information from The Registry of Deeds, property managers, developers, and local real estate professionals. Once all the data is collected and reviewed for accuracy, the appraiser will determine land values and set Neighborhood codes that rate the desirability of locations throughout the Town.

PHASE 3: VALUATION
Valuation is done using one of the three recognized methods: Replacement/Market Cost, Income Approach and Sales Comparison Approach. The Sales Comparison is the most widely used approach, and most easily explained to the taxpayer. During this phase, individual characteristics of the building are analyzed using information from sale properties. Each property is compared to other properties with similar characteristics. Once the market cost is determined, the improvement value is then added to the land value that was previously determined. This value is the final estimate for each parcel of property, building and land.

PHASE 4: FIELD REVIEW
Field Review is the method of checking and re-checking both the values that have been determined and the data that has been collected. During this review, properties are viewed in the field by experienced appraisers who double-check uniformity and accuracy of information.

After all phases are completed, all data, files, records, etc. used in the revaluation are then turned over to the Assessors Office.

DPW Snow REMOVAL / Clean UP Efforts being done while PARKING BAN IS IN EFFECT

These are some pictures I captured today -- of the snow piles that were being removed today by DPW ... on Shirley Street Winthrop .... the side streets off of WSD towards Shirley were being cleared by the efforts of Winthrop DPW and help from MWRA who was called in to assist ......

shirley street near tafts ave
february 4, 2011 approx. 1:30pm

A snow bank of this size takes 

10 to 12 truck loads to take it away ......

I'm 5'3" so that can give you an idea of the size of this snow bank ... not all this small ...

These are the trucks we are using .... the largest DPW has ....

Hauling one load away of many .....
again it takes 10 to 12 loads like this to take away
just one of the snow banks like the one
I am standing in front of (above).

The Parking Ban is Still in EFFECT .... it is so SNOW REMOVAL can be done by this heavy equipment .... this is the best way to removed the snow that has accumulated ... snow plows cannot move or remove the snow is such a manner .... plows push it and sometimes push it back onto sidewalks and into driveways that have been shoveled or snow blown by residents and business owners .... the removal method that DPW is using is the best to remove it out of the area ... because it helps widen the streets and remove the snow so if and when the sun comes out and starts melting it it does not flood streets or even worse freeze when temperatures go down ....

Thank you ... MWRA

 There is a cost of this assistance for Winthrop ... just an FYI

but we do appreciate their ability to assist !!

And remember .... DPW staff is out their in the middle of the night .... when we are all snug in our houses in our beds dreaming .... moving snow ... when there is no were else to put it ....

They are working all day to remove trash, fix water main breaks, dig cemetery plots .... the lists of regular work does not stop when the snow is falling .... and can they have time to rest / sleep so there are no injuries or accidents to themselves, property or the public .....

widening the street so the front-end loader can put the snow into truck beds to be hauled away

So remember -- the snow is expected to fall Saturday again ... even though they are saying it may not be a lot compared to what we have seen over the past couple of storms .... anymore is still enough .... enough that it part of what goes into making decisions ... for the best of the community ...

Stay tuned to the local channel on WCAT if you have it .... otherwise ... stay tune to the major channels of 4, 5, 7 and 25 .... and as always ... when the information is released by the Emergency Manager .. these forms of media information will be released on our town official website and its other media, i.e. facebook, twitter, blog ....

Be Safe,
