REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN


To the Citizens of the Town of Acton :


We herewith submit to you for your approval the reports of the various departments of the town for the year ending Decem- ber 31st, 1926. Acting under Article 15 the board appointed a finance committee of six members, two from each precinct, the personnel of this committee will be found under the list of appointments made by the selectmen.


Under Article 17 this board after several meetings with Bos- ton & Maine railroad officials were successful in having them repair with permanent filling the grade crossings in West Acton.


Under Article 18 we sold the land mentioned in this article for the sum of fifty dollars.


We recommend that the town avail itself of State and County aid in the building of roads, as only in this way can our town receive the benefit which is due us from our State and County taxes, and our just share of motor vehicle fees.


In continuing our road building program the money appro- priated in our opinion should be voted for such roads as the State and County will contribute like amounts for, in this way if our appropriation is ten thousand dollars the State and County will each give us a like amount, and we will soon have our roads in first class shape.


We strongly advise against taking up any new projects in road construction until the present ones are completed. We now have partially finished four roads as follows: Main Street in Acton Centre, School Street in South Acton, and Central and Willow Streets in West Acton.


The greater part of Main Street is in very bad condition and the expense of maintenance in this section is very heavy, we strongly advise the town to continue the construction of this road this year.


The matter of snow removal seems to be generally satisfac- tory, and we feel that the majority of our citizens approve of this work being continued even though the expense is a little heavier than the old method.


Respectfully submitted,


MURRAY BROWN, HOWARD W. BILLINGS,


Selectmen of Acton.
