Dear fellow Hanoverians:
I could not let this past week go by without a shout out and “the town’s”
deepest thanks to the Emergency Management team – including the Hanover
Police Department, Hanover Fire Department, Hanover CERT, Hanover DPW, and
Hanover Community Development and Municipal Inspections, and also Hanover’s
Community Services, Finance, Library, Information Technology and School
Departments for stepping up to the plate this week and managing an
incredible response to some very challenging circumstances.
Fully 84% of us were without power at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, and we were
declared back up and at 100% power at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday. I’ve seen
pictures of decades old trees across Main Street and Whiting Streets, a
motorcycle accident at West Hanover Square, and reports of over 100
incidents that needed an emergency response. Thankfully, I am not aware of
any life-threatening injuries to a Hanover resident. Our partnership with
National Grid and other regional response teams was tremendous. Was it
perfect? No. Was it incredibly safe, well communicated given the
circumstances, and was Hanover well served by it’s public servants? You
bet. So proud to live in this town!
Nice job, folks…from the appreciative residents of the Town of Hanover!
