SELECTMEN'S REPORT
We have the honor to submit the accompanying report of the receipts and expenditures of the town of Berkley for the year ending Dec. 31, 1929.
With the creation of an effective budget system and the adoption of legislation which will as far as humanely pos- sible prevent the vitiation of that system through political maneuvering, is absolutely imperative if the finances of our Town are to be properly and effectively administered. The budget system contained in the municipal finance act of 1913 was an admirable one but we believe its provisions have been disregarded or circumvented by local officials.
It seems apparent that this town is rapidly drifting to- ward the chaotic condition which existed generally in towns prior to the passage of the municipal finance act. The trouble has been and still is that municipal officers for popularity and often for personal political reasons, too often yield to the temptation or the glamour to spend undue amounts of money without present and conservative plans and provisions for payment. The result leads to constant- ly increasing indebtedness. We Selectmen believe that no town is too small to have a budget which will set forth a comprehensive picture of the needs of the various de- partments and accompanying this statement of the pro- bable effect upon the tax rate. The budget also should be a statement showing the true financial condition of the town, so that the inhabitants will know exactly where they stand in the matter of local finances, the budget having been made up in advance and adopted the valuation now directly determines the tax rate.
We urge a thorough investigation of the advantages and workings of this plan.
