Library and in the music hallway at Hanover High School.

Items requested include birthday themed plates and napkins (24 count or

anything that might to appeal to children. Make this a fun project you can
do with your children or friends and make a little difference in the life
of a less fortunate child. Hanover Woman’s Club, Juniors thanks you for

Special District Election for SSVT is this Saturday!

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

This coming Saturday, January 25th, is the Special District Election
regarding the proposed new South Shore Vocational Technical School. The
polls will be open from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Hanover High School
Media Room. The Media Room is located off of the cafe at the high school,
and both the front and rear doors to HHS will be open for voters to enter
the building. There will be HYAA sports in and out of the back door all
day long, so it might be easier to park in the front, but both sides of the
building will have reserved voter parking spaces waiting for you.

The set up and administration of the election will be unusual for regular
voters, with the primary changes being that we’ll be in the media room, and
you don’t have to find your precinct line when you get there. The results
of the vote will be aggregated across all nine towns in the district and
will therefore not be gathered or reported by precinct like they usually
are. All nine towns are in fact voting on January 25th from 9:00 a.m. –
5:00 p.m. at their various local polling locations.

If you are going to be out of town all day from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. on
Election Day, or if you are physically unable to get to the polls, or if
you have a religious belief that prevents you from voting that day, you
qualify for an absentee ballot. Your application for an absentee ballot
must be received by the Town Clerk’s Office no later than 12 noon on
Friday, January 24th. Here is the link to the application:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=0BGLS/XBUS6LOJieeYfdnOMJo3kvyspJr0cb7eObPatoqLt7nDMoRqoN783ZLADJ
. The voter must appear in person with this application. It is too late
to request an absentee ballot by mail.

There is NO in-person Early Voting or no-excuse Vote by Mail for this
election.

If you are still unsure how to vote on the project itself, there is lots of
great information on both the SSVT project website found here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=Ndcd13MRT3KSB5BHEHnFVuMJo3kvyjpJr0cb7eObPatoqLt7nDN4RqoN783ZLADJ
, as well as on the Town of Hanover website here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=wX+19dxwGOeH5u+8BDnotuMJo3kvyopJr0cb7eObPatoqLt7nDPIRqoN783ZLADJ
.

If you have additional questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to Town Clerk
Catherine Harder-Bernier at catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov or Cindy
Xing at cindy.xing@hanover-ma.gov , or call 781-826-5000 x1079.
See you Saturday!

South Shore Regional Vocational School District debt exclusion

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The South Shore Regional Vocational School District (website:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=q4YNvYWMSg2t3nY+AuaNggvPd4ODZ8oBqv7pLWvbRTpoqLt7nDPoRqoN783ZLADJ
) has secured a $111m grant from the Massachusetts School Building
Authority to construct a new vocational high school designed for 900
students for its 9 member communities. Hanover was one of the original 6
towns that founded the school, which opened its doors in 1962. The current
(and proposed) school is located at 476 Webster Street. The new school
would add more seats to address waiting list demands and also house 2 new
programs: Plumbing and Veterinary Science, along with the 12 vocational
majors it currently offers.

After the state grant, there is a $162m local share that would be split
amongst the towns based on enrollment trends. It is projected that
Hanover’s share of the project would be around 11%. The full borrowing
of the project would not roll on until FY29. There is more detailed town
specific tax impact information on the project website, here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=7yafuj3t+ASgxI+kYAPUCgvPd4ODZ/oBqv7pLWvbRTpoqLt7nDN4RqoN783ZLADJ
.

The next step in the process is a Special District Election in the 9 member
towns on Saturday January 25, 2025. This special district election will be
held in the Hanover High School Media Room from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

If residents have any questions about the project, please feel free to
contact Superintendent Tom Hickey at thickey@ssvotech.org or 781-766-4002.
For questions involving the special district election, please contact Town
Clerk Catherine Harder-Bernier at catherine.harderbernier@hanover-ma.gov or
