HON. G. EDWARD BRADLEY Mayor of Somerville


MAYOR'S MID-TERM ADDRESS


Somerville, Massachusetts JANUARY 6, 1949


Constantly increasing cost of wages and materials indicate no tax relief for the year 1949. On the contrary, a substantial rise in the tax rate appears inevitable unless immediate affirm- ative action is taken by the state government. For our part, we shall continue to make every possible effort to reduce that part of the municipal budget which is under our control.


I must emphasize, however, that more than 85 per cent of the total tax levy consists of fixed charges; wages and salaries of employees; interest and amortization of the public debt; welfare, old age assistance and aid to dependent children; hos- pitalization of consumptive and contagious disease patients; and street lighting.


CANNOT BE REDUCED


None of these items may be reduced by us. The cost of welfare, old age assistance and aid to dependent children will rise in 1949 by at least $125,000 as a result of legislative ac- tion. The cost of street lighting, which last year totaled over $100,000 is determined by the state department of public utilities, and the need for adequate illumination of our com- munity. Medical care of our dependent citizens and hospi- talization is up in excess of 50 per cent. Salaries have already been increased by one of our departments.


WAGES


While I would have preferred that the school committee hold the question of increasing wage schedules in abeyance until a later date, I myself found it difficult to oppose the request of those employees of our city that their compensation be brought up to a standard consistent with their position and with the demands of present day living costs.


ANNUAL REPORTS


I am cognizant of the heavy load carried by the tax payers, and by the home owners particularly, but I am also cognizant of the obligations of an employer to pay his employee a living wage and a wage which truly compensates him for the duties and responsibilities of his station. Regardless of sound argu- ments to the contrary, the salaries of municipal employees must be increased.


We are, therefore, confronted with an imminent rise in the cost of all fixed charges. We have experienced the same upward trend in the cost of all other items as has been expe- rienced by all the people.


ECONOMIES ACHIEVED


We have achieved many economies. The long delayed purchase of new equipment for the sanitary department will result in a very substantial saving. A real reduction in fuel costs should result from the installation of new heating equip- ment in many of our schools. New police cars, acquired during the past four years, will reduce maintenance costs and Increase efficiency, as will the purchase of new fire apparatus.


Unfortunately, the upward trend of commodity prices has appeared to defeat these economies. However, consideration of the fact that the cost of living index has increased 76 per cent since 1940, but that the tax rate has risen less that 18 per cent over That period, is evidence that we have not failed.


Unscrupulous publicity seekers, headline hunters, carping critics appealing to class, group and bloc have sought to gain political preference by attacking the administrations of mu- nicipalities. The truth should be apparent even to them; the same inflationary spiral which has swept this entire nation has not been less harmful to the financial base of communities than to that of the citizens individually.


PLANNING BOARD


Somerville suffers from many causes going back many years. It is the experimental focus of students of municipal government and city planners because it has grown without plan, haphazardly. It is a congested city that was allowed to develop almost entirely without zoning ordinances or adequate building regulations until every square foot of land had been developed.


MAYOR'S ADDRESS


There are many who consider Somerville's case as hopeless I an not one of those. I agree that it is late to begin a com- prehensive planning program but I affirm that unless we act now, it may be too late to achieve favorable results. Studies must be made by competent authority so that we may map the future of our city toward orderly and logical progress. This can be accomplished only by a qualified and non-political planning board implemented with sufficient funds to operate and staffed with able and experienced full time employees.


I shall submit recommendations to your honorable board designed to carry out this program. I shall call on local civic organizations and civic minded citizens to assist us in this work, and lean upon the experience of the schools of govern- ment and municipal planning of Harvard University, Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology and Tufts College. The task is tremendous; success can be achieved only with the sincere and wholehearted cooperation of all officials and citizens.


IMPROVEMENTS


A cursory survey of our city today shows vast improve- ments over the Somerville of five years ago. Our schools and public buildings have been substantially improved. Our streets are in excellent condition, repaved at a lower cost than in any other community. Our parks and playgrounds have been re- stored and our recreation department revitalized. Services by all our municipal departments have been maintained at a high level. A real start has been made in our program of providing homes for veterans. New industry has located here. These advances shall continue.


However, our problems continue and multiply. Additional fire apparatus, snow fighting equipment and sanitary equip- ment must be acquired. It may be only a matter of months before we shall be compelled to find another means or location for the disposal of ashes and garbage. A new sewarage sys- tem must soon be installed.


At the same time, additional costs beyond our control are heaped on to the already heavy cost of government.


The MTA deficit, the increase in welfare aid ordered by the legislature, the enforcement of new safety rules in our schools by state authority, and the loss of revenue from gaso- line tax money as a result of the recent referendum total up


8


ANNUAL REPORTS


to an increased demand of almost $1,000,000. This can represent an increase of $7.60 on our tax rate unless hoped for legislation is enacted by our new state government.


STERN ECONOMY


Some part of this can be offset by stern economy. I have hesitated to curtail services by departments even though sub- stantial savings can be achieved in no other way. This would require the dismissal of employees and a hard and fast policy of filling no positions that become vacant. It is an expedient that can be justified only as a last resort when disaster is imminent. I do not believe it is the desire of any group of tax payers that such spartan action be taken.


STATE AID


Rather, we feel that the state government must provide additional assistance for the communities of the common- wealth, particularly in the field of education and welfare. The mayors and selectmen, who have each year sought legislation designed to accomplish this have received notable aid from Massachusetts Tax Payers Association and from the new Mass- achusetts Council for Public Schools which is composed of Superintendents of Schools, members of School Committees, and teachers. It is my opinion that real progress in this di- rection will be made in this new year by a governor who has repeatedly proved his concern for the problems of the com- munities and a legislature which will support his proposals.


We begin the new year of 1949 hopefully. We face prob- lems that appear to be almost insurmountable. But, in the true spirit of cooperation for the good of all the people, we are convinced that our problems will be resolved and that the year's end will show true progress and real improvements for the city we are all dedicated to serve, the City of Somer- ville.


My wish for all is a Holy and Happy New Year with the intercession of Divine Guidance in all our deliberations and a humility strengthened by a sincere desire to reflect credit upon the good name of Somerville and the fine people who live within its limits.


Respectfully submitted,


G. EDWARD BRADLEY, Mayor
