What do you want to do in Hanover next year?

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The Hanover Cultural Council wants to hear from you!

Each year, the Hanover Cultural Council provides financial support to
activities that bring us together as a community and highlight what makes
Hanover special. Through their grant program, the Cultural Council sponsors
projects, performances, and programs in the arts, sciences, humanities,
history, cultural awareness, dramatic arts, and music.

Using a combination of funds from the Massachusetts Cultural Council and
money raised at Hanover Day, the Council was able to award just over
$20,000 to local organizations for activities in the coming year, including
historical programs, theatrical performances, concerts, school field trips,
gardening-related programs, kids’ activities, and discounted passes to
area museums.

The Cultural Council is gathering feedback and ideas from Hanover residents
as they set their priorities for future grant cycles. Please take a few
minutes to answer this anonymous, seven-question survey:

http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=nUIhfUseeXqJiOflQok0c3ZBAWNHK6DXje1wSFicBpFoqLt7nDN4RqoN783ZLADJ

And, Hanover Day 2020 will be here before you know it! If you would like to
get involved in planning this year’s festival, please contact Cultural
Council Chairman Chris Haraden at chrisharaden@hanoverday.com.

Thank you for your opinions, ideas, and continued support!

2020 dog licenses are now available on-line, by mail, or in the Town Clerk’s Office

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Hanover Town Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier announced today that 2020 Town
of Hanover dog licenses are now available on-line, by mail, or in the
Hanover Town Clerk’s Office. The licensing period is January 1, 2020 –
March 31, 2020, and a $10 late fee applies beginning April 1, 2020. All
dogs over the age of 6 months are required by law to be licensed. The
license is good for one year, and costs $10 for spayed or neutered dogs,
and $15 for intact dogs. Residents over the age of 70 will be given a free
license for their vaccinated dog upon proof of the owner’s age.
In an effort to make this process easy for residents, there are several
ways to license your dog.

• Most folks who have licensed their dogs in the past won’t yet have a
GoPetie (Hanover’s new dog license software) account, but it’s easy to
visit
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=dz+uDqeqT6q+lj6qrBW2UHj9+cO/jpcytMGuj7xWATRoqLt7nDMoRqoN783ZLADJ
and retrieve your pet’s information and establish your account. Enter
your first and last names, house number, and select a street name from the
drop down menu. The answers must match with what you already have in the
system so that you don’t create a duplicate record or have to re-enter
the existing dog information. When matched, the system will show your
pet(s) name(s) and will ask you to confirm. After confirmation, you will
be asked to enter an email address, create a password, and then you will be
taken to your account where you can update any info needed, pay the fee(s)
and submit the license application for review.

• Residents may also fill out the dog license application that is found
on the Town Clerk’s section of the Town of Hanover’s website at:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=ex3LmxUs+sCvXhrXoK/RWXj9+cO/jjcytMGuj7xWATRoqLt7nDMoRqoN783ZLADJ
. This is the same application that was included in the census mailing
this year. Completed forms may be mailed in with your payment, proof of
current rabies vaccination and proof of spaying or neutering (if you have
not submitted that information previously) to: Town Clerk’s Office, 550
Hanover Street, Hanover, MA 02339, and your tag will be mailed back to
you.

• As has always been the case, dog licenses may also be obtained in
person at the Town Clerk’s Office during normal business hours. Please
bring the same paperwork – current rabies vaccination, proof of
spaying/neutering if you have not submitted that information previously,
and your cash or check payable to the Town of Hanover.

Unlicensed dogs are subject to a minimum of a $25 fine, with an additional
$25 fine if unleashed and another fine of $50 if unvaccinated for rabies.
Don’t delay; get your dog’s license today!

If you have questions or need more information about the licensing of your
dog in Hanover, please call the Town Clerk’s Office at (781) 826-5000
x1079 or e-mail catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov or
meg.pallotta@hanover-ma.gov . Kennel owners are encouraged to call or stop
in also, as their licensing process requires an inspection and other
additional paperwork.

HANOVER TOWN CENSUS MAILED – NO CHANGES THIS YEAR? NE

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The annual town census has been mailed to all Hanover households. New again
this year – if you do not have any changes to your town census, you may
submit your response on-line! All residents should review the information
on the form, make any changes if necessary, and sign and return the form as
soon as possible. If there are no changes to your town census, go to:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=waNSteJUkvOkiJjWdxHVR6Mq5EArr6K/uYxZZgYz6vZoqLt7nDO4RqoN783ZLADJ
and fill out the on-line form. Household members who are temporarily
living away from home, such as college students, members of the military
services, etc., should not be removed from the census if they plan to use
Hanover as their voting address.

Also included in the census mailing are a Hanover School Information Sheet
and a Dog License Application. If applicable to your household, these forms
should also be completed and may be returned in the enclosed addressed
envelope or dropped through the mail slot with your census in the front
door of the Hanover Town Hall.
If you did not receive a town census form or are new to the Town of
Hanover, you can download one on-line here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=mvABqLmPASG3R2aWyDz8YKMq5EArryK/uYxZZgYz6vZoqLt7nDNYRqoN783ZLADJ
.
Completion of the annual census is important for a number of reasons. It
assists in accurate municipal planning, it assists the police and fire
departments in case of an emergency in your home, and it allows Hanover to
receive the proper allocation of state and federal funds and grants. Filing
a census can provide proof of residency for a number of legal requirements
such as in-state tuition at state colleges, housing benefits, veterans’
benefits, and insurance benefits. Also, any registered voters in a
household that fails to complete an annual census will lose their
“active” voter status, which is an important consideration in this busy
election year.

For more information, please contact Carol Mattes at
carol.mattes@hanover-ma.gov or (781) 826-5000 x1028, Town Clerk Catherine
Harder-Bernier at catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov or Assistant Town
Clerk Meg Pallotta at meg.pallotta@hanover-ma.gov or (781) 826-5000 x1079 .
