Report of Selectmen
To the Citizens of Duxbury :
Your board submits the following report for the year ending December 31st, 1941.
The work of the Selectmen is of a routine nature. Varying somewhat each year by votes and recommenda- tions of the voters at the Annual Meeting.
The entrance into the war has solved one problem for the town reguarding the Abbott house which the town purchased a short time ago. At the time of purchase the house seemed to be of little value to the town.
At this time practically every room is occupied. The Police Department, The W. P. A. School Project, The Red Cross, The District Nurse, The various Defense Com- mittees and the United States Army Patrol are now occupying all available rooms.
Old Cove Road as accepted at the last Annual Meeting has been built and is much appreciated by the owners of property adjoining same.
Soule Avenue leading from Route 3A to Bay Road has been graded and graveled and left to properly settle to receive the surface in the spring.
The expense at Gurnet Bridge has been much less than the town's portion the last few years.
The sheds at the Town Hall have been removed as voted at the last Annual Meeting.
The voters will be asked to raise and appropriate a sum of money for the construction of a sea wall at Duxbury Beach.
-9-
Your Board of Selectmen acting as Finance Commit- tee would appreciate the cooperation of the heads of the various departments in making the requests for appro- priations as small as they feel they can get along with.
If this is carefully considered we feel we will be able to continue a fairly low tax rate.
SIDNEY C. SOULE, CHARLES R. CROCKER, PHILIP W. DELANO,
Selectmen of Duxbury.
