North Hill saga ties up town, golfers alike allowed and that Johnson Golf versation on things that are be-

nother story that
spilled over into
2010 was the on-
going saga over the North Hill
Golf Club.
North Hill
Top is a nine-hole
municipal
Stories golf course
of 2010 off Merry Av-
enue. While
the course is
owned by the town, the day-
to-day operation of the course
is contracted out.
For many years, the course
was run by Doug Johnson and
Johnson Turf Management.
In 2009, after Town Manager
Richard MacDonald awarded
the contract to another com-
pany, Calm Golf of Rockland,
Johnson sued, saying Calm
wasn’t qualified and the con-
tract should have been his.
A Middlesex Superior Court
judge granted Johnson an in-
junction, allowing him to con-
tinue to run the course while
the legal battle was settled in
the courts.
During 2010, however, the
dispute was far from settled.
Because the town was
getting paid and Johnson was
running the course, the dispute
had quieted down. However,
on Jan. 14, Town Counsel Rob-
ert Troy served Johnson Golf
with a motion for summary
judgement, asking a judge to
immediately take action and
dismiss the suit.
A few weeks later, John-
son took his case directly to

course went under.
Recreation Director Gor-
don Cushing told selectmen
that Johnson couldn’t obtain
a surety bond from his insur-
ance company because of his
lawsuit against the town. The
town started to look into their
options, but Johnson again
fired back.
In September, Johnson

submitted handwritten finan-
cial information that did not
meet acceptable accounting
practices.
They briefly discussed
other violations, including
the alleged facts that Johnson
Golf failed to pay rent and
other payments on time, that
Johnson illegally operated an
alcohol cart on the course in
past years and that the man-
ager established a holiday fee
schedule without the town’s
permission.
A few meetings later, in
early December, a resident
tried to talk about the case in
open forum, sparking a heated
debate among members of the
Board of Selectmen and lead-
ing Chairman Shawn Dahlen
to gavel the meeting closed.
The resident was told that
the issue couldn’t be discussed
because of the pending litiga-
tion. However, Donato tried
to let the man talk, saying the
contract never should have
been awarded to Calm Golf.

not serving the town to engage
in this type of showmanship,”
said Betsy Sullivan.
After that incident, the
matter did not come before the
selectmen again, however the
year closed with the town try-
ing to get the case moved from
Middlesex to Plymouth Coun-
ty Court. Johnson originally
sued in Middlesex because his
business was located there,
however Troy said that in try-
ing to serve Johnson the town
discovered he no longer lives
at a Weston address that was
also listed as the business of-
fice. Troy said Johnson had an
obligation to notify the court
of his moving.
In a motion, Troy said that
the ongoing legal battle may
have an effect on membership
at North Hill.
“Paralysis of the mem-
bership process, public con-
fidence issues, confusion and
uncertainty now threaten to
close North Hill,” Troy wrote.

“Even to this date I’m surprised that we are where we

from the general public ...This is a great thing for the
town of Duxbury.”
–– Selectmen Chairman Shawn Dahlen
done by a town-friendly devel-
oper and clamored for by Dux-
bury’s elderly community, was
approved.
The project was a planned
expansion, called Island Creek
North, of the existing housing
development at Island Creek
on Tremont Street near Route
3 and Kingston. The 214-unit
project would add to Dux-
bury’s affordable housing in-
dex, and the developers, Keith
Properities, had actually been
approached a previous incarna-
tion of the Board of Selectmen
about expanding. The original
Island Creek development,
built in the 1980s, consists of
106 units, or 136 bedrooms of
mostly elderly housing.
40B projects are housing
projects under the auspices of
a state law known as the “anti-
snob” zoning act. It allows a
developer to circumvent lo-
cal zoning regulations such as
frontage and density if a per-
centage of the units are priced
below market rate. The mea-
sure is controversial because

as a hammer by unscrupulous
developers to push undesirable
projects on suburban commu-
nities with strict zoning regu-
lations, like Duxbury. A ballot
initiative to repeal the law nar-
rowly failed during the state
election in November.
Under 40B, a developer
gets all permits from the Zon-
ing Board of Appeals, rather
than going around to the Board
of Health, Conservation Com-
mission, etc. This is known as
a comprehensive permit.

closed the public hearing on
Island Creek North at the end
of 2009, but it took until Au-

In early January, the dead-

and then ZBA Chairman Den-
nis Murphy said there were

the board and the applicant

process being reopened.
“There is room to negoti-
ate,” Murphy told his fellow
board members.
“These guys are willing
to re-engage in good faith, we
should be willing to do the-
same,” he said. At the same
time, he warned that the board
should keep their eyes open.
“They finally realized
they’re not going to steam
roll,” he said. “We should vote
the permit we feel is workable,
protect the towns interest and
not cave on the things we re-
ally care about.”
Other members felt the
board should simply cast a
vote and move on.
“I feel like the fox is chas-
ing the dogs –– who is in con-
trol here?” said Gene Orosz.
The ZBA then entered into
lengthy negotiations with the
development team, starting in
open session and sometimes
lasting long into the night.
Eventually, the board closed
the doors and used the execu-
tive session exemption to the
open meeting law, saying they
were discussing potential liti-
tation.
The board took a final vote
on the permit, but the develop-
ers were unhappy with some
of the restrictions and took
their case directly to the Board
of Selectmen.
The selectmen were wary
about stepping on the toes of
another board (one appointed
by the selectmen, in fact) but
Town Counsel Robert Troy
said they had the authority to

Help keep a needy neighbor
warm this winter
This winter could be a difficult time for some of our neigh-
bors to keep their homes heated. Last year, nearly 150 families
in Duxbury asked for fuel assistance from the Duxbury Inter-
faith Council and the South Shore Community Action Council.
The DIC depends on donations to meet these heating needs.
Anyone can help support a new fuel assistance fund this
holiday season with the purchase of a gift certificate for “the
person who has everything.” Consider making a donation in
their name to the Duxbury Fuel Assistance Fund. Stop by the
Duxbury Senior Center to purchase the decorative certificate
that you can give announcing that a donation had been given
in the recipients name to support The Duxbury Fuel Assistance
Fund. The money raised supports the Outreach Committee of
the Duxbury Interfaith Council, which among other things, pro-
vides fuel assistance for those in need in our community.

In September, teen author
Brigitte Berman visited Dux-
bury Middle School to talk
about her experiences and her
book, “Dorie Witt’s Guide to
Surviving Bullies.”
The 16-year-old author
has also testified before the
Massachusetts legislature
and travels around to schools
speaking about how to combat
bullying and cyberbullying.
The message she told a group
of parents in September (she
had spoken to DMS students
earlier in the day) was to speak
to, and listen to, their children.
The event was sponsored by
Duxbury No Place for Hate.
“As a parent, you don’t
have to know all the answers,”
she said. “You just have to lis-
ten and care.”
When Berman dealt
with some bullying issues in
her school, she wondered if
she was the only one going
through the harassment. When
she started to do some research
on the Internet, she found she
was far from alone.
Children around the coun-
Connection brought well-
known bullying expert Eliza-
beth Englander of Bridge-
water State College to speak.
Englander is a professor of
psychology and director of the
Massachusetts Aggression Re-
duction Center.
One theme Englander
stressed throughout her talk
was that nothing on the In-
ternet is private, despite what
some social networking sites
may tout for “privacy set-
tings.”
“None of them are private.
That’s a marketing term,” she
said. “What [kids] don’t un-
derstand is the impact of what
they do online.”
As an example, she cited a
survey that revealed more than
50 percent of teenagers had
given away their passwords at
some point.
Englander said many adults
mistakenly look at the amount
of time teenagers spend online
as an addiction. In reality, she
said, it’s more like an anxiety.
“Kids today are, generally
speaking, controlled by tech-
tors because we got differing ,iÃiÀÛ>̈œ˜ÃÊ

nition issue. “I think everyone
has their own interpretation.”

to the Caribbean ever since being listed as endangered 25 years
ago. Although the piping plover has increased dramatically since
the 1980s it is still one of the rarest shorebirds in the world. Mr.

Brush burning permits available

Brush burning permits are available for pur-
chase during normal business hours from 8:30
a.m.-4 p.m., as well as Saturdays and Sundays
from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., starting Jan. 1. The cost of
the burning permit is $10 for the season. The
Duxbury Fire Department only accepts checks.
Cash will not be accepted. Burning permits
will be sold only at the Central Fire Station lo-
cated at 668 Tremont St.
The burning season will start on Jan. 15,
and the last day of burning season will be May
1. Residents are strongly encouraged to get
their burning done early because burning will
be very limited if we have a dry spring.
Burning without a 2011 permit is a viola-
tion and burning privileges will be revoked for
the remainder of the burning season.
Burning permits are only for brush, cane,
driftwood, and forestry products. Burning of
leaves, grass, hay, straw, stumps, finish lumber,
or construction debris is strictly prohibited and
doing so will be cause for immediate revoca-
tion of the permit. Burning must be done on
land proximate to where the brush is generated,
it must be done at least 75 feet from a dwell-
ing, and adequate resources must be available
to immediately extinguish the fire if requested
to do so by a fire official. Burning will only be
permitted when weather and wind conditions
are acceptable.

Dr. Benedict Tantillo started his tenure as Duxbury’s superintendent of schools in August. Tantillo comes
to town with a knack for technology, and has promised to lead the charge for new school facilities.
Skeiber said there were
several reasons playing into
her decision to step down.
“I can’t say it’s just one
particular thing,” she said.
“It’s a variety of things that
have made me make that deci-
sion.”
However, when asked if
the recent furor around the de-
cision to change school start
times affected her decision,
she said the negative tone of
the discussions was at least a
factor.
Future Management Sys-
tems of Beverly was selected
to lead the search, and a 10-
member local search commit-
tee was formed consisting of

The top three then came

McGoodwin stressed his
collaborative approach and
student-first attitude toward
education.
“My style has been to earn
the respect and trust of the

faculty, don’t measure me by
what I say, but what I do.”
Hayden pointed to his
wide-ranging experiences in
Brockton (jokingly calling
himself the “director of every-
thing else) and said his sense
of humor has helped him be-

Heated debate over zoning,

A dispute over zoning en-

the expertise of interim chief
Stephen Doherty.
“He’s a wealth of informa-
tion about how police depart-
ments operate,” she said of
Unsworth.
The screening committee
received 53 resumes to sift
through, and although some
were quickly eliminated be-
cause they didn’t meet the
qualifications in the job de-
scription, there were still many
worth candidates to consider.
Unsworth, who spent over
30 years as a police officer,

community policing has in-
creased greatly over the years,
and a chief in a town like Dux-
bury needs more than technical
knowledge.
“It’s not merely responding
to a call, taking a report and
leaving, it’s solving a prob-
lem,” he said.
Unsworth is a big propo-
nent of an assessment center,

World War I monument restored, unveiled
continued from page one
town hall, and with its comple-
tion the town now has some
kind of a monument or memo-
rial to all of the country’s ma-
jor armed conflicts.
The journey toward com-
pletion for the monument was
not a simple one, and started
well before this year.
In fact, the journey started
with a walk in the woods.
Joe Shea was walking
through the woods adjacent to
Mayflower Cemetery several
years ago, working on a se-
ries of pamphlets about town
cemeteries, when he stumbled
upon a pile of limestone.
“I recognized it immedi-
ately,” Shea said.
The pile was the remains
of a shattered World War I
monument that had been miss-
ing for decades.
The monument once stood
in Boomer Square, the patch
of land in front of the Town
Hall/First Parish Church com-
plex on Tremont Street. (The
town’s one World War I casu-
alty, Charles Boomer, gave his
name to the square.) However,
in 1958, through circumstances
that remain unclear to this day,
the monument was destroyed
by a vehicle. The pieces were
gathered for a planned recon-
struction that never happened,
and the monument was nearly
forgotten until Shea discov-
ered the shards.
“What a perfect day to be rededicating Duxbury’s World
War I memorial ... Thank you to the dedicated committee
that worked diligently for three years to make this a real-
ity. Thank you to the many volunteers who offered their
time to complete the installation. I am proud to be part
of a community where the efforts of so many volunteers
shape the character of our community.”
Shea was actually involved
in a search for the monu-
ment 30 years earlier, when
he and then Fire Chief How-
ie Blanchard went looking
for the monument –– which

A year to
remember
T
he year 2010 was another eventful year for the town
of Duxbury. There were changes at Town Hall as a
new selectman was elected, and in the top position
at both the police and school department. Duxbury is an active,
interesting town and it’s always interesting to cover from a
local newspaper’s perspective.
But now that 2010 is (about to be) behind us, let’s peer into
the crystal ball and take a guess at what the top stories of 2011
will be ...
School buildings dominate debate: This is our best
guess for the top story of 2011. We already know that in order
to secure reimbursement from the state, school officials and
new Superintendent Ben Tantillo want to bring the project
to the voters as soon as possible, and at the very least design
funds will be on the warrant at Town Meeting in May. School
projects, even if they are needed (and many feel Duxbury’s
high school and middle school are in tough shape) are
expensive. The preliminary budget projections show that even
with all the reimbursements, the average Duxbury taxpayer
may see his tax bill jump by over $1,000. That’s a lot to
swallow, although school parents do tend to vote, so we can
only wait and see.
North Hill finally gets resolved: The long and contentious
debate over the management at North Hill has already wasted
too much of the taxpayers’ money in legal fees. It should wrap
up quickly in early 2011, and it certainly should end in favor
of the town. We’ve yet to see any hard evidence of the grand

Public Safety Buildings Committee Chairman Andre Martecchini points to the plan for the fire station
renovation during a meeting with the Planning Board in December.
Schools and public safety
buildings dominate discussion
By Justin Graeber, Clipper Edditor
justin@duxburyclipper.com
The discussion took place
in 2010, but the decision looms
in the near future.
Duxbury’s public build-
ings have been the subject of
debate for a long time. Some
have been hashed out for
years –– like the fire and po-
lice station projects, which
have changed shape, location
and more over the last several
years. Some are just popping
up now, like the school proj-
ect, which school officials say
needs to be moved on quickly

Top going to be
Stories reimbursed by
the state.
of 2010 In March,
voters at Town
Meeting and subsequently at
the town election passed a bal-
lot measure seeking $292,000
in design funds to renovate the
town’s main fire station. They
also passed a ballot question
seeking $2.6 million to build
a new crematory at Mayflower
Cemetery.
The crematory project
passed easily, by a vote of
2,185 to 765. Voters may have
been able to reconcile the cost
with the fact that the cremato-
ry brings in around $600,000 a
year in income for the town.
The new facility will be
more up-to-date, will meet
safety and environmental stan-
dards and will provide for pos-
sible future expansion. It will
also be located in a less cen-
tral part of the cemetery than
where the current crematory
stands.
The fire project was the
first public safety project to
pass both Town Meeting and
the ballot box. Several prior
versions, including brand-new
separate stations and a more
expensive renovation at the
fire station, along with a new
police station, passed Town
Meeting’s muster only to fail
at the general election.
Towards the end of the
year, the public safety projects
were in the headlines again.
The renovation at the fire
station, which includes new
gender-appropriate crew quar-
ters and better public access,
seemed to generate little de-
bate. Yet there was still some
debate over the police station
–– which many in town be-
lieve the greater need –– spe-
cifically its location.
During a public hearing at
the Senior Center in Decem-
ber, several people expressed a
desire to see a new police sta-
tion at the current site on West
Street, even though it may be
more expensive and the police
department prefers the Public
Safety Building Committee’s
recommendation of Mayflow-
er Street.
The committee will ask
for $300,000 for design funds
at the 2011 Town Meeting.
If all goes according to plan,
construction on the new police
station could begin in the sum-
mer of 2012. The station is es-
timated to cost $6.6 million.
Those are not the only
building projects Duxbury tax-
payers could be asked to pay
for next year, however. Also in
2010, the idea of new schools
cropped up.
Over the summer, the
Massachusetts School Build-
ing Assistance project voted
to move Duxbury’s request for
new schools into their pipeline
for funding. The MSBA will
reimburse new school con-
struction at a high percentage.
Voters at 2009 annual Town
Meeting approved $200,000
for a feasibility study for the
high school and middle school.
However, as 2010 progressed,
the idea of a combined, or “co-
located” middle school and
high school started to emerge
as the preferred ––  and most
cost effective –– project.

A Mazing A Cappella
The Paul S. Fortini Foundation announces the second an-
nual A Mazing A Cappella Celebration to be held on Feb. 5. The
inaugural concert was a success, audiences filled the Performing
Arts Center. Thanks to the generous support of local businesses
and townspeople, the Foundation was able to make its first gift
to the Duxbury music and drama departments this fall: a $5,000
gift for the purchase of a new rehearsal piano for the Duxbury
High School orchestra and chorus room. This gift replaced a 40-
year-old piano, long needed but outside of the school budget.
The Paul S. Fortini Fortini Foundation for Music and Dra-
ma is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, all volunteer organization with a
mission of fulfilling the vision set forth by Paul’s family. This
vision is to provide alternative monetary support to the Dux-
bury Schools’ performing arts, something which was very dear
to Paul.
The foundation’s goal is directed at providing tangible as-
sets to the music and drama departments which may be outside
of school budgets. The foundation seeks for every student to
continue to have the best opportunities, tools, and environment
to continue the excellence which has been established within
these departments.
Again this year, the a cappella concert will be held at the
Duxbury Peforming Arts Center. The concert will be featuring
a number of talented collegiate groups from the Northeast, and
Duxbury High’s PACMEN will be performing as well.

Looking forward
with resolution
continued from page one
soon to be twelve. The Zabuli School in Deh’Subz, a village
near Kabul, has been generously supported by the people of
Duxbury through the Duxbury Rotary and other sources, in-
cluding Kite Runner author Khaled Hosseini.
“We started with 160 girls attending up to the fourth
grade,” Razia writes. “Next year we will double the number
of our students to over 300 girls, now being taught up to the
seventh grade.”
Years ago, Razia taught an eager Duxbury audience an old
Afghan saying: Qatra, qatra, daria meshawed. It means, “drop
by drop, a river is made.”
Razia now writes, “Some might say what we’re doing is
just a drop in the pond, but I believe girls’ education is the best
and most vital solution to this country’s problems.”
Razia likes to tell the story of her retort to the many men
who have pressured her to dilute the Zabuli program by admit-
ting boys. The men ask her, “Don’t you know that men are the
heart of Afghanistan?”
“Yes,” she answered. “But women are her eyes. Without
them, the men have been blind.”
She writes now, “Together, one at a time, we are changing
these girls’ lives forever, and in turn we will affect their fami-
lies, communities, and together with schools and institutions
like ours, perhaps the whole country.”
Bricks and mortar have progressed as well. The school’s
traditional surrounding walls were wooden, and have now been
replaced with stone. A school van now provides safe, depend-
able transportation to the teachers who commute daily from
Kabul.
The program is entirely funded by private donations,
coordinated by Razia and her American team (Razia’s Ray of
Hope, Patti Quigley, executive director). Razia writes, “I have
a unique and trusting relationship with all of you. I try with
my heart and soul to keep that trust. Our foundation is an open
book. If you’re curious and want to know more, or to partici-
pate somehow, you are always welcome. I pray every moment
of the day that these girls are given the opportunity to realize
their potential. Believe me: with our help, these drops in the
pond are going to make big, beautiful, oceanic waves.”
From a pond to a river to an ocean. Razia’s vision has
never been small, from her first “Operation Shoe Fly” chil-
dren’s shoes, to the scarves she sent to American troops to
block Afghanistan’s choking dust. Check the Razia’s Ray of
Hope website to help her carry on. I know she’ll say, “Bisyar
ziat tashakur!” Meaing: Thank you very much!
I wish you a happy and healthy holiday season!

Young Dragons win again in hoops
By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor
sports@duxburyclipper.com
It is a team that is young
and inexperienced. But Coach
Gordon Cushing has pulled all
the right strings so far, as his
Duxbury boys’ basketball team
pushed its record to 4-0 with
a 60-58 win over undefeated
Marshfield last Thursday night
in Duxbury.
boys Basketball
Duxbury 60
Marshfield 58
Anytime you face a Bob
Fisher team, you know you’ll
have your work cut out for
you. That was the case on Fri-
day night, as the Dragons built
an early lead and then hung on
in the fourth quarter to win by
two points.
While the Dragons may
lack experience, they showed
they have plenty of length,
as they blocked numerous
Marshfield attempts in the first
half to forge a 32-24 halftime
lead.
While junior Curtis Owen
has been the reliable offensive
threat for Duxbury so far this
year, he took a backseat to
center Connor Kindregan in
the first half and scored seven
points, while his senior team-
mate led the way with 10.
While Marshfield did man-
age to grab the lead at 11-10
with a 1:05 left in the first
quarter, they were never able
to sustain it for any length of
time, as consecutive baskets
by freshman point guard Khai
Perry gave Duxbury a 21-20
lead with just over three min-
utes left in the first quarter.
Momentum began to swing
in Duxbury’s favor, forcing
Fisher to call a timeout with

1:45 remaining and the Drag-
ons ahead by five.
When Duxbury came back
on the floor, baskets by Sam
Ederle and Kindregan had the
Dragons up by 10 points be-
fore going to the locker room
at halftime with a 32-24 lead.
The Dragons did an excel-
lent job in the first half break-
ing Marshfield’s press, as the
Marino twins (Justin and Ja-
son) were instrumental in get-
ting the ball past half-court.
Everyone knows that Fish-
er’s teams are relentless on the
defensive end and it was criti-
cal that the Dragons maintain
their composure in the second
half.
The Rams came out smok-
ing after the break, as Marsh-
field senior captain Barrett
Murphy scored six points in
the first two minutes to cut
Duxbury’s lead to 34-32 with
549 left in the third quarter.
From this point on the Marinos
took over, as Jason and Justin
lead their team on a 16-5 run
over the final five minutes that
gave Duxbury a 50-37 lead af-
ter three periods of play.

Baseball’s greatest season

The only question linger-
ing over Duxbury’s chances
was if Jeff Blout would be
able to take the mound with
three days’ rest for the second
consecutive time.
“We just decided he’ll
pitch about five minutes ago,”
said Head Coach Barney, as
his squad took infield practice
before the game.
It didn’t take the Rams
long to get to Blout, as No. 2
batter Matt Consigli ripped a
370-ft. shot to left-center that
missed being a home run by
a couple of feet. Pitcher Evan
Mackintosh helped his own
cause immediately; singling

could see they were at a
disadvantage right away,
as the Warriors seemed
to be bigger, faster, and a
step ahead of their oppo-
nent throughout the game,
especially when Medfield
started off going with the
wind in the first half.
Goalkeeper Emily
Brook had plenty to do in
the opening minutes, as she
made a diving save on a
kick from 30 yards out and
also stopped a shot at the
post as Medfield walked
out from the corner.
Trying to send the
ball up field into the wind
seemed fruitless, as the
Warriors pressured every

and slipped right through

for a 1-0 lead.

Medfield’s physical play

and intimidated them on
most 50/50 balls.
Duxbury would finally
get deep into Warrior ter-

Galette des Rois

This is one of the most popular eating traditions in France. A “féve” a small china figure-is hidden
in the galette before baking. The lucky guest that gets the féve is crowned the King and chooses his
Queen/ or King among the guests.

The galette is made of Butter Puff Pastry and filled with Almond Frangipane.
