SELECTMEN'S REPORT


The state department of taxation has increased the valuation of the town from $757,287.00 to $993,568.00, which is an increase of $236,273.00; this big increase in our valuation is bound to work to our disadvantage in several ways. It will make our State and County taxes more and it will make quite a difference in obtaining money for road purposes under the "Small Town Act". Our road valua- tion will change from $18,030.00 to $23,656.00 per mile, there are forty-two miles of highway in the town that comes under this Act. This does not include about a mile of State road on County Street. Under the old valua- tion we have been getting $75.00 a mile from the Division of Highways, providing of course, that the town appro- priated $2,100.00, which is $50.00 a mile. With this change in valuation it will be necessary for the town to appropriate $3,150.00, which is $75.00 a mile, in order to get help from the State. If the town will do this the Division of Highways can give us an equal amount.


There is a bill now pending in the legislature, if enacted, that will allow the State to give to small towns an amount double their own appropriation, if the towns meet with the requirements of the act.


In 1914 the town got het first allotment of road money from the State. Since then and up to the present time we have received from the State the sum of $33,868.54 and from the County $3,500.00, making a total of $37,368.54; to this amount we can add the sum of $1,000.00 presented to the town by Mr. Thomas P. Paull and expended on

ANNUAL REPORT


Padelford Street. This generous and public spirited gift merits and receives the thanks of the entire inhabitants of the town.


The school house at the Common was destroyed by fire and the town at a meeting called for the purpose decided not to replace the old building, but to build a four room building instead, large enough to consolidate all the schools except Myricks.


The sum of $22,000.00 was appropriated to build and furnish the school complete, $2000 of the above amount was put into the tax levy this year and a loan for the balance of $20,000.00 has been made with the Taunton Savings Bank. The town has issued ten notes of $2000.00 each at 4%, these notes are to be paid me each year until the loan is liquidated.


Work on the new school house has progressed quite rapidly considering the weather conditions. It will be ready to occupy for the fall term of school.


Your board would recommend that some action be taken by the town to dispose of the old school buildings and lots. They can be sold and remodeled into dwelling houses and become a source of revenue to the town through taxes. The town should realize quite well from the sale of this property.


The town has a note of $3000.00 to pay March 26, 1926. There is $2715.04 in the treasury.


The unpaid taxes including the interest due December 31, 1925 amounts to $4,281.46.
