The following is a statement from the North Andover Firefighters Local 2035 Bargaining Committee:

All that is required from the Town Manager and Fire Chief is a commitment to maintain full staffing at current levels within the fire department. This will ensure the safety and well-being of both the residents and firefighters. Establishing this commitment would facilitate the negotiation of a mutually beneficial agreement.

We appreciate the community’s support during this challenging time. As we work to contain the brush fires in North Andover and neighboring communities, we also continue to negotiate a new contract with the Town Officials. While we have not had much success on reaching a new contract, just today, the Town’s attorney stated that we don’t have the support of the community and our support is manufactured by our members. Many have asked how they could support us in our ongoing negotiations. Please consider sending an email to our Town officials and send them a strong message that you support the North Andover Firefighters and to extend the same financial offer to us that the other public safety unions in town received.

Thank You!!!

I want to give a shout out to Roger Baker and his team at Rehab Five. They have been out on full force providing rehab for all the firefighters working to extinguish the multiple brush fires throughout the North Shore. They always do an amazing job. Rehab Five is a nonprofit organization who operates from donations. A lot of people have been asking how they can support the firefighters and I would like to direct you to Rehab Five. If you are able to make a donation it would be appreciated. If not, please consider them in the future. You can check out their website at
