Receipts from rentals for the year have shown a substantial in- crease. This has been possible by making repairs to buildings taken over and making them habitable for tenants. It has been possible to make some of these repairs with Welfare labor thus keeping costs down to a minimum.


By so doing some revenue has been derived, the City's investment has been protected and the properties saved from destruction by vandalism and exposure to the elements. As an example, by making minor and only emergency repairs to nine properties that were last assessed for $24,825. and upon which there were unpaid taxes of $5,717.40, rentals were received in the amount of $1,030.20.


107


REPORT OF TREASURER


There is need for further repairs to these and other properties recently acquired, so as to produce revenue, in lieu of taxes and protect their value until they can be sold.


Many properties taken for non-payment of taxes include old, dilapidated buildings that have deteriorated beyond repair or re- demption. These old buildings are not only unsightly but constitute a nuisance becoming fire and health menaces. Upon the recommen- dation of the Building Inspector and the Chief of the Fire Depart- ment, and after every effort has been made to salvage some value for the City, several such buildings have been demolished at no direct cost to the City.


In some instances we have conferred with the City Engineer with the result that while being City owned property, one street corner has been rounded and another is under consideration.


At present there are listed 1009 parcels of property, taken by the City for non-payment of taxes under Chapter 60, Sec. 79, G. L. or by foreclosure of tax titles in the Land Court.


Area 1,009 parcels 11,018,778 sq. ft. Last assessed value .$377,535 00 Taxes due when taken $105,665 20


Yours very truly,


GEORGE E. MOREY, Property Manager.

REPORT OF THE QUINCY RETIREMENT BOARD


REPORT OF THE QUINCY RETIREMENT BOARD


March 1, 1939


To the HONORABLE THOMAS S. BURGIN, Mayor: Quincy City Hall, Quincy, Massachusetts.


The Quincy Retirement Board submits its fourth annual report, being for the year ending December 31, 1938, with appended tables setting forth the financial and statistical results.


In his report to us, the Actuary retained by the Board comments "that the operation of the Retirement System during the past year has been very satisfactory. The only point in which the experience of the system does not measure up to the expected is in the yield on investments which was not quite as good as it was last year, and is still below the 4 per cent requirement. However, this loss from interest has been more than offset by the experience of the system in other respects which has been favorable. The favorable experi- ence is manifested in the decrease in the accrued liability, in the change from the deficit balance to a surplus balance in the Annuity Reserve Fund, and in the fact that the normal and accrued liability rates which were certified last year continue to be adequate as a basis for determining the City's appropriations."


The problem of investing funds is one to which the Board has necessarily had to devote much attention. It recognizes the dual nature of its responsibility, as trustees to both the members and to the City. Aside from the necessity of conserving principal, it is under the obligation to make its investments earn as much as is consistent with safety, both because of the fact that accumulated interest is such an important element in the retirement allowances ultimately to be paid and because of the liability upon the City to make up any deficits in earnings. To that end, it has availed itself of opportunities both to purchase securities of higher ratings and to lower the average price at which certain of its holdings already stood.


The Board believes that the policy which it has adopted will, over a period of years, lead to an annual earning power that will assure payment of the full retirement allowances contemplated when the system was established, without the necessity of resort to City appropriations to make up deficits in income.


Respectfully submitted, GEORGE H. BONSALL, JOHN J. KEEFE, LEO E. MULLIN, Quincy Retirement Board.
