Article 17: Transfer of Funds not to exceed $250,000 from free cash to FY2026 General Fund Budget
The Town and the Fire Union have worked collaboratively, but have been unable to reach an agreement on their collective bargaining agreement. It is expected that negotiations and arbitration will extend beyond June 30, which means that the budgeted salary reserve would no longer be available to fund the contract. This transfer would make certain that money is available in FY26 to fund any retroactive payments due to the firefighters.

Join the Town of North Andover, engineering consultant Apex Companies, and Groundwork Lawrence for a public forum on Wednesday, May 21st, starting at 6pm, at the North Andover Senior Center (481 Sutton Street) to discuss progress and initial findings for the Cochichewick River Flood Study and Management Plan. This project involves studying the Cochichewick River, which runs from Lake Cochichewick to the Merrimack River, in order to better understand its vulnerability to flooding in the face of more frequent and intense rain events, such as what occurred in North Andover in August of 2023. The result of the study, which was funded by the Commonwealth's Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) grant program, will include recommendations on how the Town and key stakeholders can address flooding in the area.
