December, 2008
To the Citizens of Woodstock:
We are pleased to present this report on services provided by the Town of Woodstock to its residents. It is the intention of your Board of Finance to make this report available to you, the taxpayers of Woodstock, on an annual basis so that you will have a better understanding about the kinds of services that the town provides.
As we begin to prepare the town budget for fiscal year 2009-10, it is crucial that an informed citizenry play a part in the process, especially during this time of economic uncertainty. Under our system of the town meeting form of municipal government, the town’s people of Woodstock are the legislative body of the town, and act as the town council. What town council member would want to vote for a budget about which they haven’t a clue?
The Board of Selectmen will soon begin the process of reviewing the town budget, department by department, in meetings which are open to anyone who may wish to attend. In late March or early April the Selectmen will send this proposed budget to the Board of Finance which will review it in several public meetings. Each BOF meeting has a public comment period where the town’s citizens may offer input to the BOF.
We hope that you find the information in this annual report useful and that you will take the time to attend the public meetings and make your opinion known. Transparency in government cannot be achieved without the active participation of our townspeople, the true legislative body of Woodstock.
In closing, we wish to apologize to the departments that are not included in this year’s report; we will rethink and revise the contents and listings next year to accommodate everyone. We would like to thank those persons who contributed to this report.
Sincerely,
The Woodstock Board of Finance
Board of Selectmen Annual Report
Allan D. Walker Jr., First Selectman
The Town of Woodstock completed a successful year in sound financial and physical condition. An important milestone was reached as the Town Hall building debt has been fully redeemed. The General Government Budget for FY08-09 was approved at referendum on June 24, 2008. This fiscally responsible budget reflected an increase of $197,314 over the previous year. Two budget line items, $83,333 for revaluation and $123,000 for Woodstock Emergency Medical, increased the budget by $206,333. Without these two line items, this budget would have been lower than last year. Revaluation is state mandated and must be funded while the Woodstock Emergency Medical line item is new for FY08-09. With this funding, the Town’s ambulance is now staffed with paid technicians Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
The Town of Woodstock has designated the Northeastern Connecticut Council of Governments (NECCOG) as our Animal Control Agency. NECCOG maintains daily Monday through Friday office hours and provides on-call emergency service 24 hours per day, seven days per week.
Negotiations between the Board of Selectmen and Teamsters Local #493 were successfully completed with the signing of a new collective bargaining agreement. This benefits all parties involved by providing both the Town and Highway Department employees with a fair and equitable contract.
The Town of Woodstock received a $250,000 Small Town Economic Assistance Program (STEAP) grant to help in funding the expansion, renovation, and rehabilitation of the highway facility to meet current standards of compliance and to better protect the Town’s public works investments. The Highway Department facility is sorely in need of updates, repairs, and greater space. STEAP funds will be used to offset construction costs on this essential and important community resource.
Through a Small Cities Housing Rehabilitation Grant many low and moderate-income Woodstock residents have received financial assistance to make repairs to their homes. This $400,000 Grant was awarded in July 2007 and continues to be available to income-eligible residents.
A portico has been erected over the back entrance to the Town Hall to eliminate water damage and ice buildup issues against the back doors. The cost of this project was significantly reduced due to our Building Official’s offer to volunteer his labor. The total project cost was $5,600 compared to the lowest bid quote received of $16,800. Mr. Terry Bellman’s work and dedication to the Town of Woodstock are greatly appreciated.
I would like to thank our dedicated volunteers who make Woodstock a special and unique community, as well as acknowledge the Woodstock Town Hall staff for their excellent customer-friendly service and conscientious efforts.

ANNUAL TAX COLLECTION REPORT 2007-2008
The Tax Collection Office strives to maximize the collection of town taxes while providing exceptional, friendly, and accurate service to the community members of Woodstock, and to maintain an open door policy with tax payers struggling to meet their civic responsibilities in working towards a resolution. This year, being a transition year from a seasoned tax collector to a new one, was no exception to that rule. The fiscal year 2007-2008 was a very successful year in the Tax Office achieving 100.89% or $117,646 over the budgeted property levy, and 98.74% collection rate on the overall Grand List 2006 collectable amount.
Considering the current economic conditions and financial struggles facing many community members, there was a strong concentration in the collection of prior taxes by the Tax Office. Having the philosophy that the past due taxes will become more and more difficult to collect as time goes on, much effort was made to bring many delinquent accounts current or to establish payment plans for many others. The efforts in this area were rewarded with the collection rate coming in at 112.80% of the budgeted amount of $125,000 or $141,006. These efforts in prior taxes will continue as there are still many delinquent accounts.
The Tax Office is also responsible for the billing and collection of sewer assessment costs, sewer use fees, aircraft registration fees, building permit fees, and lien fees. Collectively, the additional revenue that was yielded for the town in these areas was $380,780.
Over the past 10 months, it has been my pleasure learning the job as Tax Collector and serving the community in this capacity. I look forward to another year of meeting new people in the community and hope that everyone will feel free to stop in the office at any time. Please call at any time with any questions or concerns that you may have. I may be reached at 928-9469 X 318.

Treasurer/Finance Office Annual Report
Fiscal Year 2007-08 closed on a positive note and the Annual Financial Statements will be available soon. Woodstock remains in a strong financial position. We continue to be conservative in our revenue estimates during these slow economic times and to apply for State Grants where possible. During 07-08 we received $116,215 in reimbursements from the Local Capital Improvement Program for capital expenditures made by the Town.
This fiscal year saw the final payment on the general obligation bonds issued in 1990 to build our Town Hall building. As our remaining school debt payments decrease, we are working with the Highway Study Committee to prepare for bonding of the next large capital expenditure facing Woodstock. Under a DEP mandate, this project will include remediation and renovation of our aging, contaminated highway facility.
In addition to the $20M General Fund (the annual budget), the Finance Office manages and tracks 35 Special Revenue, Capital Project, Internal Service and Trust and Agency Funds. We invest the revenues, make the expenditures and provide financial reports to all boards/commissions conducting town business.
The Government Accounting Standards Board continues to tighten its rules requiring more professional development courses for municipal finance officers. The Tax Collector, Bookkeeper and Treasurer are attending classes to keep current on these new requirements. We appreciate the support of the Boards of Selectmen and Finance as we strive to update our knowledge and software systems to better serve the townspeople of Woodstock.
Registrars of Voters/Election Administrator’s Report for 2008
Each Town in Connecticut has two Registrars of Voters, one Republican and one Democrat. In Woodstock they are elected to a two year term. The Registrars work together as a team to fulfill their duties as prescribed by the Connecticut General Statues. We act under the authority and guidance of the Secretary of the State’s Office. Our duties include: registering residents to vote; maintaining registration records of eligible voters; publishing the list of eligible voters; supervising primaries, elections and referenda in an accurate and impartial manner; training poll workers and conducting a state required canvass of all voters each year to ascertain that they still are residents/electors of Woodstock.
The office of Registrar of Voters/Administrator of Elections has gone through a period of change this year. The use of the new optical scanners as voting machines has brought about many of these changes. We have found that the use of this new technology has reinforced the accuracy and timely reporting of all election results.
Based on the use of our current computer software we are able to compile various statistics. During 2008 we have registered 542 new voters which give us a total of 5116 registered voters in Woodstock. During the 2008 Presidential election, 4303 electors, which are 84% of all enrolled electors, voted, compared to 4213 electors which was 86% that voted during the 2004 Presidential election.

Students in the Woodstock Public Schools continued to show overall improvement on the Connecticut Mastery Test, which was administered in grades 3 through 8, in March of 2007 in the areas of reading, writing, mathematics and science. The Connecticut Mastery Test program provides an accurate assessment of how well students statewide are reaching the standards of achievement that have been established by the State Board of Education.
In mathematics the Woodstock Schools saw students moving from grade 5 to grade 6, from grade 6 to grade 7, and from grade 7 to grade 8 show increases in the number scoring at the proficient level. Students moving from grade 3 to grade 4 and from grade 4 to grade 5 showed slight decreases in the number scoring at the proficient level.

ANNUAL REPORT
TOWN OF WOODSTOCK

FIRE ACTIVITY IN THE TOWN OF WOODSTOCK:
This past calendar year from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007, a total of 210 reportable fire related incidents were handled by the Muddy Brook Fire Department, Woodstock Volunteer Fire Association and the Bungay Fire Brigade.
