REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS


In view of the financial conditions the past year the Park Commissioners have been unwilling to undertake any but the most necessary work. The development of the lot at Wayland at the corner of State and Cochit- uate Roads has been completed as regards filling, grad- ing and retaining wall, the cost being $126.60. The seed- ing down of the plot remains to be done this Spring. At Cochituate the back stop for the ball ground has been rebuilt and new seats erected, also benches for the play- ers, the cost being about $40. and a small sum expended for tree surgery and cleaning up brush. Several maple trees should be set this spring to replace dead and brok- en ones, tree guards supplied to protect the young trees from accidental injury, and a considerable amount of grading done. For these purposes and to meet any em- ergencies a small appropriation is asked.
