12


We have received plans and specifications from the Highway Commissioners for establishing a proper grade at Main Street in Cochituate, as per vote of the Town, and the cost thereof. The same are on file at the Selectmen's office.


Acting under a vote of the town we have contracted with the Weston Electric Light Co. for a term of five years, for a loop of twenty street lights which we believe are giving general satis- faction.


The Town Hall has been wired and equipped with new electric fixtures and electric lights throughout, in a first class manner, to the satisfaction of the Board.


The commercial lighting is to be furnished to the inhabitants of Wayland at the same rate as in Weston.


We would respectfully urge that the town appropriate a sum of money to paint and repair the Town Hall, outside and in.
