Dear fellow Hanoverians:

 

Spring is in the air, the kids are outside (as they should
be!), and it is therefore time for an “Around Town on the Web”
reminder to be vigilant about our children’s safety.  The latest
on-line information indicates that there are five Level 3 sex offenders living
or working in Hanover, and nine Level 2 offenders.  The Sex Offender Registry Board has determined that Level 3
individuals have a high risk to reoffend and
that the degree of dangerousness posed to the public is such that a substantial
public safety interest is served by active community notification.

 

For more information, please go to:

http://www.mass.gov/?pageID=3Deopsagencyland ing&L=3D3&L0=3DHome&L1=3DPublic+Safety+Agencies&L2=3DSex+ Offender+Registry+Board+%28SORB%29&sid=3DEeops
.  I routinely show my teenagers the latest pictures of the Level 3
offenders just so that they know who to stay away from.

 

Additionally, the town passed a new General By-Law at Town
Meeting that regulates where sex offenders may live and spend their time. 
The by-law still needs to be approved by the Attorney General to take
effect.  In the meantime, for more information, please go to Article 55 of
the Town Warrant that may be found here:  http://ww w.hanover-ma.gov/pdf/forms/WarrantMay2010.pdf
.

 

As always, our stalwart Hanover Police try and stay on top
of situations that warrant their or our attention.  Sometimes, though, we
can be their eyes and ears.  If you have any information, questions or
concerns, do not hesitate to contact the Detective Division via the Hanover
Police Business Line at (781) 826-3231.  Of course, in an emergency,
don’t hesitate to dial 911.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

 

There will be a meat raffle at Cathay Center in
Weymouth  (Route 3A) on May 22, 2010 at 3:00 p.m. in memory of Dennis
Malloy.  Dennis was Susie Chu’s fianc=E9 and was the Hanover police officer
who lost his leg while on duty on August 3, 1999.=A0 Susie was the owner of the
former Cathay Hanover that was located at the Hanover Mall before moving to
Weymouth.

 

Dennis and Susie did so much for Hanover  (and she
still does).  She cannot and has never said no to anyone in this

that day will be donated to the Hanover Police Boy’s Club in Dennis’ name.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

 

Election Day is today, Saturday, as I write this!  The polls
are open from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.  As mentioned in this space
previously, this year’s race for Selectman is complicated, so I am
delighted to provide non-biased and general information on all the candidates. 
It might not answer all of your questions, but it will start the conversation
and allow you to become an educated voter.  After soliciting all of the
candidates, ATOTW has heard from its fifth candidate for Selectman and I am
pleased to provide the following campaign information:

 

Joseph Salvucci is running for election to the three year term for
Selectman at the May 8th Town Election against Al Rugman. 
Joe has lived in Hanover for 43 years.

 

A further introduction to Joe Salvucci and why he is running for the
three year term for Selectman may be found here:  http://atotw.com/files/Joseph%20Salvucci.pdf . 
When asked what is distinctive about his candidacy, Joe states, “With my
financial background I believe I would be an asset to the town.”

 

To contact Joe Salvucci directly, please call him at (781)
826-0397 or e-mail him at jrscpa2@aol.com
.

Dear
fellow Hanoverians:

 

As
mentioned in an earlier e-mail, the Postal Workers’ Food Drive will be
held on Saturday, May 8, 2010.  That’s this Saturday!  Please
take a moment first thing on Saturday to put some non-perishable food items in
a bag and place the bag by your mailbox. Please double bag if it rains. 
(If you’re like me, and not very awake when you go out to get the paper
on Saturdays, pack your bag now and put it by the front door so that you trip
on it on your way out that morning.)

 

There
will be a combination of food drive volunteers and postal service workers
making the rounds beginning at 10:00 a.m.  Remember that all collected
food stocks the shelves of our very own Hanover Food Pantry for our friends and
neighbors in need.  Your support is greatly appreciated.

 

Anyone
still wishing to volunteer to sort donations can do so by e-mailing Sally
Lovett Boutin at kidsense@comcast.net.
 They particularly still need some extra hands later in the afternoon on
Saturday. It’s not too late to sign-up!  Thanks!
