ANNUAL REPORT
SELECTMEN'S REPORT
The Town continues to be in good financial condition at the present time. The outstanding debts are on the new Fire Station in Myricks, the Fire Station at Berkley Common, and the School Heating System.
During 1957 approximately fifteen hundred feet of road was constructed and oiled along with the construction of a bridge on Bryant Street. The final section on Myricks Street (Rte. 79) was widened and oiled to better serve the ever increasing traffic. Also on Bay View Avenue a blind curve was eliminated by widening and back sloping.
The completion of work at the Town Dump site eases the burden of maintenance and gives that area a better appear- ance.
In 1957, unemployment and State approved increases to some of the welfare budgets necessitated the transfer of addi- tional funds to meet the costs of operating the various welfare categories.
The 1958 Welfare Budget calls for increases in the Old Age Assistance, Disability, Aid to Dependent Children Ac- counts, the General Relief, and Veterans' Services Accounts.
We recommend that a sum of $2,000.00 be made avail- able to continue the construction of Bryant Street.
A sum of $800.00 as Berkley's share is recommended for necessary maintenance work on the Berkley-Dighton Bridge abutments and piers. The Department of Public Works esti- mates the total cost of this project at $8,000.00.
We approve a sum of $1,800.00 to Chapter 90 Road Main- tenance Account to do widening and reconstructing of Porter Street beginning at Pine Street to South Main Street.
The voters will be asked to transfer a sum of $2,500.00 which has been made available under Chaper 718 to the Town for the North Main Street Project. This project is slated for 1959 when the final Chapter 718 money is made available to the town.
13
ANNUAL REPORT
Now for many years the business of operating this town is being conducted from the homes of the many elected Town Officials. Much of the vital town records of the various de- partments are kept in these homes and inadequately protected.
Berkley, with a valuation of more than a million dollars, should begin to give some thought to establishing a building to provide offices for the conduct of its business.
At this time, we wish to express our appreciation to all for their excellent cooperation with us in the conduct of the Town's business.

SUMMARY OF STATE AUDIT REPORT
Mr. Herman B. Dine, Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation State House, Boston
Sir:
In accordance with your instructions, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Berkley for the period from November 25, 1956, the date of the previous examination, to March 25, 1957, preparatory to the transfer of the books and accounts, and of the cash, savings deposits, and securities to the newly elected treasurer, the following report being submitted thereon:
The records of financial transactions of the departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or committing bills for collection were examined, checked, and verified by com- parison with the reports and records of the accounting officer.
The ledger accounts were analyzed, the appropriations and transfers were checked with the town clerk's records of town meetings and with the records of the finance committee, and a balance sheet, showing the financial condition of the town on March 25, 1957, was prepared and is appended to this report.
The books and accounts of the town treasurer were exam- ined and checked. The receipts, as recorded, were analyzed and compared with the records of the departments collecting money for the town and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury, while the payments were checked with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the dis- bursement of town funds. The cash book additions were veri- fied, and the cash balance on March 25, 1957 was proved by actual count of the cash in the office and by reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement received from the depository.
The savings bank books and securities representing the investments of the trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer were examined and listed. The income was proved and the transfers to the town were checked with the receipts as recorded on the treasurer's cash book.
The records of employees' payroll deductions during the period of the audit were examined and checked, the payments to the proper agencies being verified.
15
ANNUAL REPORT
The books and accounts of the collector of taxes were examined and checked in detail. The taxes and motor vehicle and trailer excise outstanding at the time of the previous examination, as well as all subsequent commitment lists, were audited and proved with the warrants issued for their collec- tion. The recorded collections were checked with the pay- ments to the treasurer, the abatements were compared with the assessors' records of abatements granted, and the out- standing accounts were listed and proved.
The records of departmental accounts receivable were examined. The charges were added and compared with the accounting officer's books, the recorded collections were checked with the treasurer's cash book, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.
The outstanding accounts were further verified by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, and from the replies received it appears that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
The financial records of the selectmen, the town clerk, and the sealer of weights and measures, as well as of all other departments collecting money for the town or committing bills for collection, were examined and checked with the treasurer's cash receipts.
The surety bonds filed by the town officials for the faithful performance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form.
In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing reconciliations of the treasurer's and the collector's cash, summaries of the tax, excise and departmental accounts, together with schedules showing the condition and transactions of the trust and investment funds.
For the cooperation received from all town officials while engaged in making the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM SCHWARTZ,
Assistant Director of Accounts
