BOARD OF SELECTMEN


HARRISON T. SMILEY, CHAIRMAN


FRED A. TENNEY, CLERK CHESTER W. NELSON


Since Mr. Tenney was re-elected to the Board during the current year there has been no change in the Board membership. Within the Board the only change in re-organization was that Mr. Tenney became Clerk.


The public meeting schedule on the first, second and fourth Mondays of each month except during July and August was continued during the current year. There have been frequent special meetings as required to deal with particular problems.


In the category of normal business the Board has functioned as usual with reference to more or less routine matters, such as pole loca- tions, new street lights, changes in traffic regulations recommended by the Police Department, approval or rejections of various applications under Statute or By-Law and the hearing of general complaints by citizens requesting relief on their particular problems.


In the normal course of events many citizens, either with com- plaints about existing conditions or suggestions as to changing conditions, come originally to the Selectmen with problems which are the direct concern of other departments. In many such cases the Selectmen have attempted to cooperate, both with the department involved and our citizens, by referral of the problem and following it to a conclusion.


In connection with one of our important functions, that is, licensing of Alcoholic Beverages we are able to report one significant and fortun- ate development - In connection with the development of the Southeast Expressway premises of several licensees have been taken and the busi- nesses closed with the result that there are no longer any licenses - "To Be Drunk On The Premises" - in what was the Railroad Street sec- tion. While those licenses may be reserved for two years after the taking to obtain a new location, none have yet located.


During the past year, particularly, there have been many serious questions of policy in Town arising from new highway development as well as private business ventures of magnitude-


The highway expansion program has required dealing with the Department of Public Works on completion of Capens Bridge and major contracts for the Expressway and Route 128 within the limits of the Town.


We have dealt with the County Commissioners in connection with new layouts involving Union Street, necessitated by Expressway construction and Common Street, necessitated by the "South Shore Plaza" development.


3


We have also ordered, in the name of the Town, the neces- sary takings for local highway development in accordance with the orders of last Town Meeting.


In connection with the development of the "South Shore Plaza" in the northwest section of the Town, we have parti- cipated in many conferences for the purpose of solving multi- ple problems in connection with this, which is potentially, the largest single business investment ever made in the Town of Braintree.


There have been numerous sales of foreclosed Tax Title pro- perty yeilding the Town both the sale price and a restoration of the property to our "Taxable" list. In one such case, through extended negotiations, we received a return of approximately three times the anticipated revenue and at the same time we made available the pro- perty in question for new Industrial use.


In connection with the development of the Southeast Expressway we arranged for the payment, by the Commonwealth to the Town of $15,000.00 for certain town owned lots near the Monatiquot River.


The foregoing is a brief resume only of the activities of your Select- men during the past year. In all of their activities they have endeavored to cooperate with the other Town departments, the report of such departments, appear in more detail in the succeeding pages.
