Annual Report of the Board of Selectmen


To the Citizens of Attleborough:


According to well ordered custom we hereby make our report for the year ending December 31. 1911. 10- gether with such recommendations as we deem best for the welfare of the town. We wish to congratulate the citizenship for the splendid growth of population and valuation during the past year, and to state that we an- ticipate for the years to come a still larger growth in every section of our town.


We trust the citizens will look ahead in all the town's undertakings. whether they be in the building of school- houses, laying out streets of any public improvement. so that the needs of Attleborough. not only of today but for quite a number of years in the future. will be fully con- sidered.


We realize that all departments of our town are growing, and that more demands are made upon them than ever before. Houses are being built and streets laid Out in sections where, a few years ago, there was nothing but pasture land. considered of little value: but now the price of a single house lot far exceeds the price of several acres a few years ago.


The town must encourage growth and expansion. Water pipes must be extended. The new sewers. soon to be ready for use, must cover in a few years the whole section of the town. New schoolhouses must be build : new streets laid out and built ; street lights of some char- acter established: the police station enlarged and the

ANNUAL REPORT


force increased ; the fire department and apparatus must be kept up to the very excellent standing it now enjoys, in order to serve the dual purpose of saving the lives and property of our citizens, and at the same time keep our insurance rate as low as possible.


A Town Hall should be considered a necessity in the near future, and steps should be taken to secure a suitable location before all the available sites are taken for other purposes. If the town decides to build a Town Hall within three years we would recommend, if land cannot be secured at a reasonable price, that it be taken by eminent domain for that purpose.


These are some of the large problems that must be met in the near future, and they should be considered in a broad and comprehensive manner, having in mind the welfare of the Town of Attleborough all the time. Let sectional jealousy and party feeling be wholly obliterated to the end that the whole people be benefitted.


While we have named the things we need, yet the vari- ous items must be met and decided in such a way as not to stagger or interfere with the growth and welfare of the town by an excessive tax rate. Wise counsel must pre- vail in all we do, in order that the tax rate will not be materially raised, and on the other hand that needed im- provements will not be too long postponed.


We have the utmost confidence in the ability and the fairmindedness of a great majority of our citizens, to meet these great questions and settle them fairly. The following departments that are directly under the super- vision of the Selectmen, namely : The Street Department. Police Department, Street Lighting, Laying Dust, the Current and Incidental Department, and Soldiers' Relief, we will consider in the order named and make such recommendations as we deem sufficient for their support and maintainance for the year 1912, as follows: Current and Incidental, $15,000: Highway Department, $21,000; Curbing Sidewalks, $3,000; Concrete Sidewalks, $3.000.
