The Mayor's Message


"Our city - which for many years has been singled out as the fastest growing and most progres- sive municipality in the commonwealth - is pres- ently struggling to maintain this enviable reputa- tion. We have indeed arrived at a crossroads where we are receiving stiff and noticeable competition from all quarters.


"Shopping plazas-trading centers-super high- ways and industrial sites are draining more and more of our tax producing potentials every day.


"No city can endure very long, nor can it be considered a healthy location for doing business when tax rates are sky-high and real estate must bear an unfair and inequitable share of the burden. Many times I have stressed that the only alternative to ever-mounting taxes is to broaden the tax base.


NUMEROUS REQUESTS


"Everything within our power should be exerted toward encouraging any and all reasonable requests from tax and work-producing enterprises to locate in our city. During the past several years, many far- sighted and civic-minded people have approached our government with plans for constructing millions of dollars worth of high-rise apartments.


"In each case-these projects have met with pro- tests and objections on the part of citizens whose homes are in the immediate vicinity. These objec- tions-if supported by our elected officials-could very readily discourage the developers and cause them to look elsewhere, in communities that would welcome them with open arms. As has been pointed out many times, these high-rise apartments may be the very impetus needed to stimulate Quincy's re- surgence as a progressive and grown-up community.


"Beyond the tax-producing effect that these build- ings will have when completed, the added benefits to our many merchants - shopkeepers - doctors - dentists - hairdressers - druggists - garage owners - and practically everyone else will be most notice- able. We must not forget either, the resulting em- ployment that will be offered the many tradesmen engaged in the actual construction of these apart- ments.


75TH ANNIVERSARY


"It is only fitting that I preface my remarks with the reminder that Quincy will, during 1963, cele- brate its 75th year as a corporate city.


"During the years which have elapsed since 1889, extraordinary changes have taken place in our com- munity.


"The whole character of the town has in a meas- ure changed, and what was the placid New England country village has given way to the life and habits of a highly developed industrial city.


"Perhaps nothing better demonstrates the remark- able changes that have taken place in Quincy since the inception of the first city government than the initial cost of maintaining that government and the net cost of running our city in 1962.


"In 1889 the total appropriation for carrying on the work of our municipality was $343,486, while the budget of last year was $21,371,230. The popula- tion in 1899 was 14,900 and the estimated popula- tion in 1962 was approximately 88,000 - or more than six times what it was when Quincy first became a city.


"The valuation of Quincy in 1899 was $12,319,245 and the present valuation is more than $181.300,000. These comparisons tell the story of Quincy's prog- ress.


MANY IMPROVEMENTS


"Occasionally many of us object to the high prices which we must pay for living in a progressive com- munity. Most of us, upon reflection, are willing to concede that these costs are only in keeping with what we demand and receive from our city govern- ment. Quincy has no reason to regret the money spent for its many fine public improvements we have and are presently enjoying. I deem it to be the sense of the community that this progressive policy be maintained.


"Incidentally, steps have already been taken to properly observe our 75th birthday as a city - with plans for appropriate exercises, displays, school pro- grams and other functions - in keeping with the solemnity of the occasion.


HOST TO LEGION


"During the next few months, committees will be formed with various duties spelled out to make this a most memorable year. This year, too, the City of Quincy will be host to the state American Legion. The 1962 convention at Worcester voted to come to Quincy in 1963 - in spite of a spirited drive by the Boston delegation to obtain the three-day annual conclave in the Hub.


PARKING FACILITIES


"This administration is committed to the new million-dollar project now under consideration by


City of Quincy


6 -


the City Council. This development will benefit the northern section of the business district the way the Ross and Hancock parking areas have aided the southern section.


"Statistics will prove, I am sure, that the excellent parking facilities along the southern end of Han- cock Street have enabled our merchants in this area to fare better than those in the central and northern end of our business district.


"This new project will more equitably provide parking for all our merchants who are certainly entitled to the utmost consideration in return for the many jobs, high taxes and dedicated service ren- dered by our business establishments in the city.


PEOPLE SHOP BY CAR


"The automobile is really here to stay - as men- tioned before, unless we provide ample parking, suburban shopping areas that provide unlimited parking will be a constant threat to our very ex- istence.


"Along with additional parking. this project in- volves widening Granite Street - easterly from Up- land Road - and the replacement of the Granite Street Bridge by a larger one - thereby eliminating the serious bottleneck at the northerly end of the Parking Way.


"I wholeheartedly endorse this entire develop- ment as a progressive and far-sighted plan which will give Quincy a chance to breathe and once more regain a healthy and forward-looking perspective.


"Realizing the necessity of good parking in all business sections of the city - and, in attempting to treat all areas impartially, your government is happy to report the dedication of the Wollaston off- street parking area as of several weeks ago. This latest parking facility joins our main parking way in Quincy Square with the Vane Street parking area in Norfolk Downs as part of the over-all plan to make shopping a convenience for our citizens in any and all sections of our community.


CITY INCINERATOR


"Last year at this time, the City of Quincy an- nounced its intention of awarding a contract for the construction of a new incinerator in the Quarry Street section of Quincy.


"As you know, we were prevented, at least tem- porarily - from continuing with this project as a result of court action initiated by a group of inter- ested citizens whose homes are in the vicinity of the contemplated site.


"While deliberating the new problems created as a result of the court ruling, the City of Quincy has


been approached by the Sandra Construction Cor- poration of Braintree - proposing the construction and operation of a regional incinerator to serve Quincy and the towns of Weymouth and Braintree.


"This company plans to build - with private capital - an incinerator that would serve the needs of the three communities for the next 20 years. It would be constructed on a Class A street adjacent to the three communities. The proposed building would be three stories, approximately 145 feet long, by 60 feet wide, by 25 feet high.


"The main building would consist of the three floors and a storage bin, including a deodorant con- trol system, fire control and dust control.


CHEAPER INCINERATION


"Overhead cranes are planned to lift the material to be burned from the storage bin to one of the three furnaces. Total capacity, at present, is figured at 450 tons a day. Such an incinerator, if developed, could very likely provide incineration cheaper and quicker than if Quincy attempts to build one itself.


"In any event, this new proposal is worthy of consideration and could conceivably be the solution to a most vexing problem. Detailed plans and speci- fications are in the process of being developed and will be discussed with members of the council at appropriate intervals.


CEMETERY SPACE


"During 1962, Quincy's ten-year attempt to ac- quire more cemetery space ended successfully when Gov. John A. Volpe signed into law, legislation that will give to Quincy 42 acres of Metropolitan District Commission land in the Blue Hills for burying purposes.


"The first committee to look into what promised to be an acute space problem was set up ten years ago - to select a site and make recommendations. Since that time, subsequent committees have almost al- ways agreed that the MDC land in the St. Moritz area was ideally suited for additional burying ground.


MASTER PLAN NEEDED


"Now that the site is available, it is necessary to prepare a master plan. This plan will take into con- sideration all basic cemetery factors and conclude with a solution that will assure continuity of devel- opment.


"With proper management, there is no reason why the facilities should not bring added revenue to the city. It is estimated that this new cemetery with its vast area will serve the people of Quincy for the next 50 years.


Annual Report

QUARRY STREET LINK


"I am pleased to report that the State Department of Public Works has approved the last link of the Quarry Street extension as a Chapter 90 project for this year.


"This approval - as you know - qualifies the project, the cost of which is estimated at $100,000.00 for state and county funds. This link will complete the Quarry Street extension which ties Quincy Cen- ter with the Southeast Expressway in a main lateral highway.


"The first section, from the expressway to Furnace Brook Parkway, was constructed by the state. The second section, completed last year, from the Park- way to Garfield Street, was a Chapter 90 project.


WIDER ROAD NEEDED


"I am sure that with the completion of this in- portant highway, all progressive-minded people will recognize the necessity of widening the roadway under the bridge at Granite Street, as well as de- veloping the general area in that vicinity - if we are to maintain a steady flow of traffic which will be greatly increased because of the completion of this important thoroughfare.


SQUANTUM CAUSEWAY


"Some years ago, your government was successful in getting the state Department of Public Works to widen and reconstruct the Southern Artery in Quincy - from Coddington Street and Sea Street to Washington Street - Route 3A. The work was paid 100 percent by the state and then the road was returned to Quincy for maintenance.


"Your government is asking that similar consid- eration be given to East Squantum Street causeway - from Quincy Shore Boulevard to Dorchester Street - and also Dorchester Street - from East Squantum Street to the Moon Island Road.


ONLY ROADS


"These roads are the sole means of access and egress to and from Squantum. In addition to being the sole access roads to Squantum, these two road- ways are Boston's only means of access to Squantum Park (owned by Boston) - to the City of Boston's sewerage pumping facilities on Moon Island, to the Nike site installation on Long Island and, to the important City of Boston hospital on Long Island.


ICE SKATING RINK


"On July 6, 1961, the Metropolitan District Com- missioners voted approval of the artificial ice skating


rink in the St. Moritz area of West Quincy and ordered the engineers to prepare plans and specifica- tions. This rink was only recently completed and officially opened as one of the most beautiful facili- ties of its kind to be found anywhere in the com- monwealth. Additional year-round recreational fa- cilities are contemplated for this area - which, when completed, could very readily become one ol the show-places along the eastern shore.


"This ice skating rink is dedicated to the memory of the late Mayor William T. Shea, who lived in West Quincy.


BEACH PROJECT


"This year, too, the MDC completed a large $650,000 project at Wollaston Beach. This improve- ment included the widening of Quincy Shore Boule- vard from West Squantum Street to Black's Creek - from 40 to 60 feet - construction of a ten-foot promenade and parking facilities.


"The over-all project included the replacing of all MDC drains along the boulevard and extending the two big 24-inch drain pipes about 150 feet into the water to prevent clogging by sand.


CHAPTER 90 PROJECTS


"As a matter of interest, may I take this oppor- tunity to list the projects planned for 1963 under the so-called Chapter 90 program.


"1. Quarry Street - as previously mentioned - at a total cost of $100,000, with Quincy paying its share of 25 percent plus land damages.


"2. Resurface Centre Street between Kent Street and Albertina Street. Total cost $5,500 - city's share $1,375.


"3. Center Street, Class A construction, bitumi- nous concrete sidewalk, from Penn Street to the Braintree line - total cost $7,500 - city's share $1,875.


"4. Resurface Copeland Street from Granite Street to West Street - ttoal cost $5,100 - city's share $1,275.


"5. Resurface Dorchester Street from East Squan- tum Street to Shoreham Street. Total cost $6,000 - city's share $1,500.


"6. Resurface Quincy Avenue From School Street to Scammell Street - total cost $7,800 - city's share $1,950.


"7. Resurface Willard Street, from Robertson Street to Copeland Street and Hayden Street to West Street. Total cost $13,400 - city's share $3,350.

OTHER IMPROVEMENTS


"Among other accomplishments of the last year, your city resurfaced 33 streets - we accepted and constructed 12 new thoroughfares. We installed 3,390 lineal feet of sanitary sewers and 7,914 lineal feet of storm drains, and we installed 10.296 lineal feet of water mains.


"Sidewalks were constructed on 61 different streets -- some 7,620 lineal feet of curbing was installed on 16 roadways and $11,988 was spent in combating Dutch Elm diseased trees.


"In 1962, the new Walter C. Bryan Gymnasium at North Quincy High School was completed and work was begun on the North Quincy branch library.


"The new fire station in Atlantic is in the process of construction and shortly the new X-ray, nursery and special care building at the hospital will get under way.


FINANCIAL PICTURE


"Before concluding, I feel that a brief summary of our financial condition will be in order.


"The bonded indebtedness of our city now stands at $11,606,000. This includes $4,679,000 for school construction, $1,991,000 for sewer construction $1,113,000 for street construction - $391,000 for parking areas - $2,640,000 for hospital construction


- and, $791,000 for other building construction in- cluding fire stations, library, veterans' housing, health center, sea walls - city garage and water.


"At the present time there is an authorized loan to the amount of $1,440,000 for the new incinerator which, if built, will make our total debt $13,046,000.


"The anticipated income to be used against our debt is as follows: $1,076,170 for school construction, from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; $438,243 street and sewer betterments; $25,000 parking meter receipts - this being a yearly estimate, until such time as the bonds are retired in 1970.


"Also $100,000 rents, veterans' housing - $85,000 water receipts - or a grand total of $1,899,413.


"During 1963, the city will retire $1,191,000 of the above debt which has accumulated over the past 28 years, so that our total debt at the end of this year will amount to $10,415,000, exclusive of the loan order necessary for construction of the incinerator.


FUTURE BRIGHT


"Quincy has high hopes for the future and justi- fiably so. Quincy has excellent schools - libraries, hospital facilities, recreational programs, parks, shopping and parking areas, stores, streets, side- walks, and many other facilities that make our com- munity an attractive city in which to work and live.
