ELECTRIC LIGHT DEPARTMENT. (Including Fire Alarm and Inspection of Wires.)


(Superintendent, Fred S. Barton; Assistant, Howard C. Babcock; Linemen, Michael Renaghan, Cyrus Church.)


Every year this department has shown remarkable growth, but during the past year the percentage of growth along every line has been far greater than any preceding year. Following are the comparable figures:

Note: 1915 gain of 37 per cent: consumption was caused by large increase at Ellis Water Station.


For several years past the plant has been too small for the volume of business, and the basement especially has been so crowded with high vol- tage wires that it has become extremely dangerous, and it was only a miracle at the recent fire in the plant that the entire building was not ruined. However, the new and enlarged switchboard of latest type as now placed, and the new extension built, will allow for a new re-arrangement for our equipment and that of the Edison Company in such manner that higher voltage service can be secured when our business reaches that point, ap- parently in about a year.


As the plant is now reaching towards its tenth year of life, there will gradually appear certain parts to be repaired and renewed. For over a year we have been bringing our plans and records up to date with the in- formation which had not been recorded since the plant was built; and we have also made examinations of poles and other equipment, and detailed tests and inspections in districts where the growth has been so rapid that transformers will have to be added or the present ones relocated so that proper current may be maintained in these sections. There is a large amount of this work necessary this coming year, and we will need at least one more helper for our linemen and a small second hand car for quick calls and light work while the truck is out on heavy construction. Even with these additions, we will be below the average equipment of other muni- cipal plants of even smaller size and far less than private plants. I often believe that many people fail to fully appreciate what our plant does for the town and how small an operating force accomplishes this work as well as the two other branches of work under its charge.


The underground conduits from the station to the Press and under the new granite paving have been completed and the combination iron poles have been set. The new lights and the cables have now arrived and will . be placed within the next few weeks, the cable for the Press being placed as this report is written.


On the underground construction we take pleasure in reporting that 51,000 feet of ducts were placed at a cost of 25 cents per foot, complete with manholes, etc., and we would request that this cost be compared with


.


127


the costs recently shown by an investigation of the work of a private lighting company where it was shown that the cost of work under the same specifications was 43 cents per duct foot, or in other words, we desire it to be realized that the Town of Norwood saved practically 42 per cent. on the cost of its underground light construction, or a total of nearly $6,000, which fact we trust will offset some of the criticism which was so freely given. The new acorn lights with compensator attachment have arrived and will shortly be placed on the ornamental iron poles. These lights are gas filled and of approximately 600 candle power each, and will be placed about 100 feet apart. We hope to move the existing 250 candle lights to position below Guild Street.


Underground connections have been run to the curb line at all buildings and vacant lots and will be extended across the sidewalk before the pro- posed granolithic is placed. As the price of copper wire is still exorbitant and is likely to remain so for some time, it will be far, hence before all the wires on Washington Street can be replaced by underground cables, and, therefore, the majority of the wooden poles will have to remain temporarily. Through a very satisfactory arrangement of heavy jointly owned poles, we will shortly be able to remove 129 poles between Washington Street and the Canton Bridge. We are endeavoring to make similar arrangements in other sections of town.


The street lighting given free to the town this year would have cost over $15,000 if purchased from outside companies. The total cost of the plant to date only totals in round numbers $125,000, of which $35,000 is on outstanding notes.

(FIRE ALARM DIVISION)


Due to the difficulty of securing materials this season, very little new work has been done outside of setting half a dozen of the new type of non- interfering succession boxes and renewing some of the old iron wire. We are, therefore, returning a balance of over $600, which we would request be returned with a small addition for the completion of the unfinished work, such as two standards for Washington Street and new wire to the manu- facturing plants.

(INSPECTION OF WIRING DIVISION)


During the year, 137 inspections of house and store wiring were made by the Superintendent as Inspector of Wires. This is an increase of 11 per cent. greater than last year's inspections, and on this new work 227 meters were placed.


All work is required to be in accordance with the code of the National Board of Fire Underwriters, and in some instances work has been con- · demned and forced to be replaced properly. I believe the department

should receive fees as in other places for this inspection, even if only enough to reimburse for the actual cost of the inspection.


MUNICIPAL OFFICES.


The volume of the Town's business has grown to such an extent that it must be apparent to all that the present crowded quarters are entirely inadequate for efficient work. Inasmuch as building costs are so high, it is probable that even a plain office building would cost more than we can at present afford.


Our first scheme was the remodelling of the town tenement building on Washington Street, and removing some of the offices to this location and utilizing the basement for a much needed comfort station, but the cost of this work and especially that necessary for the latter part would be very high, and while the writer has talked for a public sanitary building since his arrival, yet I believe that it should be built properly and in the proposed new square, and that we should not waste money on temporary make- shifts.


As to the matter of office room, the only immediate relief would be the use of the rooms occupied by the School Department, and as this depart- ment is the one which can best be separated, I would recommend that other quarters be considered for this department, as these officials are agreeable to any change which is for the best interests of the Town.

PURCHASING. As a headline, the remark that we had saved $1.23 per capita this year on purchases, would be startling, and some might con- demn it as sensational. Inasmuch as this purchasing for all departments is handled by the Manager, we are somewhat reticent about going into results too deeply; but I trust our readers will be charitable and forgive any seeming boastfulness in the following, with the assurance that it is not so meant, but that these facts are stated as a proof of the benefit of centralized purchasing regardless of who does it.

These savings are figured from actual differences in prices resulting either by early contracts or by stock up just prior to a rise in price, or are the dif- ferences from prices paid in other towns equally situated as to freight rates, etc., the latter in cases of street oils. In addition to this should be credited nearly $500 saved by cash discounts.


It would not be proper to close without a word of praise for the prompt service and liberal discounts granted us by local merchants on all materials which we have been able to purchase in town or through local merchants as agents.


Office Records are kept on every phase of the work of all departments and daily balances of stock, labor and funds available on all appropriations and sub-appropriations for particular jobs are available at all times and open for the inspection of the public. Likewise, a complete system of req -. uisitions, quotations, orders, invoices and price accounts are kept up to date and are also open to public inspection. Furthermore, work orders, applications and complete operating systemns in all branches are ready for inspection at all times, and we sincerely trust that more of our citizens will become interested in the operation of their affairs, at least to the extent that they will call at the town offices and thus be kept in touch with the carrying on of the work as approved by them. In short, we request public interest in public affairs.


Conferences of all superintendents and chiefs with the Manager in the form of a cabinet on co-operation have been arranged. This matter was considered by the writer last year, but it seemed that our daily contact was then sufficient, but with the very fast growth which we are experiencing in all directions, it seems that we have reached the time when these con- ferences are very essential for the best interest of the community, whose · servants we are. And it is very gratifying to note that recently the heads of two large departments have each suggested this same feature.

In the purchase of school supplies and repairs of school buildings totalling approximately $10,000, there has been the closest harmony between the officials of that department and the writer, and the same may be said concerning the Library Department. In the matter of painting school houses, the work was given to local painters whenever possible, and in other cases was done by the painters in the employ of the Public Works Department.


As agent for the Board of Health, I feel we have been able to render a . few services, and we trust that we may be given the opportunity to do much more in the future to assist these gentlemen who give so much of their time and attention to those matters which we, who are thrown in con- stant touch with, realize are so much needed.


With the Board of Relief and the Finance Commission our associations have been most pleasant, and the same is true concerning the Building In- spector, Treasurer, and other officials with whom we have been thrown in close touch, and especially so with the Town Counsel for his ever ready legal assistance and to the Town Clerk and Accountant for his always ob- tainable store of helpful information.


The writer is appreciative of the loyal support you gentlemen of the Board have given in all our undertakings; for without this feeling of firm backing, many of our results might be left unrecorded.


And likewise we should appreciate the loyalty of our two hundred and more municipal employees, and it was only this loyalty and interest in the work that has kept them with us when contractors and manufacturers right in town have offered them from 30 per cent. to 50 per cent. increased wages with steady work. Our new schedule of wages gives a 10 per cent. increase to the most valuable and grades the remainder in proportion to their efficiency. This then places wages as follows: Foremen, $3.00; labor, $2.25 to $2.50; and hired teams, $6.00 per day of 8 hours.


We follow these remarks by the detailed budget which we would request for the ensuing year.
