Note: It is to be noted that the tax on State owned land is reflected in estimated receipts-"In Lieu of Taxes."
It is known to our citizens that this board, and the planning board, have been engaged in causing a survey of each individ- ual's real estate holdings in this town.
Mr. Everett M. Brooks, C. E., is making the surveys and maps. To date, he has deposited with us 19 block maps cover- ing approximately 3,200 acres owned by 443 individuals and corporations. He has also in hand much incompleted work which, during the present year, will be finished and deposited in this office. These maps are of convenient size for ready reference, and are, of course, open to anyone. They require a great deal of work by the assessors in furnishing necessary information to the engineer-in that we have to copy, in dupli- cate, the deeds of 90% of the owners of real estate. Many of the owners acquired their holdings in small parcels and at vari- ous times, making it necessary to copy several deeds to get the description of a single owner's land.
Respectfully submitted, DANIEL BRACKETT. WILLARD C. HUNTING, CHARLES M. MATHEWS, Assessors of Wayland.

REPORT OF THE WAYLAND PLANNING BOARD For the Year 1943
The field of the Planning Board in a town like Wayland falls naturally into three parts : first, correcting as far as pos- sible the mistakes of the past; second, planning to supply the needs of the present; third, looking into the future to foresee the growth of the town, to anticipate improvements that can be made to render the town a better place to live and work in, and trying to coordinate its growth and its expenditures so as to avoid the heavy costs, eventually reflected in taxes, that come through a failure to look ahead and foresee what is likely to come to pass and prepare for it.
Before we consider this third part of the work, which is by far the most interesting, let us see what the Board has done in 1943 on the first two items.
The town is still under heavy expense and is continually faced with problems due to lack of control of the town's devel- opment in the past, and much of the Board's attention in this, as in former years, has been given to such matters. The im- provement of the so-called "camp areas"; getting into public ownership river bank and swamp lands which, though laid out in lots, are not fit for anyone to build on ; trying to provide for the widening of roads originally designed too narrow or in unsuit- able places ; securing enlargement to a suitable size for home building of lots laid out too small in the developer's plans-all of these things have taken much of the Board's attention. The Board is pleased to report some progress in these directions, particularly in the Riverview Terrace Section. Fortunately, with present controls and a wide-awake public sentiment, such bad developments should be a thing of the past.
In our second field of work, meeting the present needs of the town, the Board has been particularly active. We secured the co-operation of the County Commissioners in having a sur- vey of the remaining part of Old Connecticut Path from the Five Paths to the Weston line, and of Old Sudbury Road. Both
125
these surveys give us basic lines that were much needed in con- nection with the Town Assessors' plans, and also furnish the groundwork on which a sidewalk building program can be founded which may become a project for the employment of veterans after the war if desired. Surveys of various danger- ous highway intersections which had been started in previous years have been completed, and the results on two of these sur- veys are before the Town Meeting in the form of Articles in the Warrant for the improvement of the ends of Bow Road and of Waltham Road where they meet Concord Road. In connection with this Waltham Road improvement, which will form the Kirby Whittier Memorial, the Board has co-operated with the Memorial Committee by employing the services of a distin- guished landscape architect for advice and by making the neces- sary survey and plan.
In co-operation with the Park Commission and the High- way Surveyor, we made an investigation of what could be done to improve drainage at the Dudley Pond Beach. A catch basin and extension of curbing to prevent washing out of the beach have been recommended, and plans for the removal of weeds in the immediate area of the bathing beach were worked out.
Through the co-operation of the Board of Selectmen and the Park Commission, the bus shelter at Wayland Center recom- mended in our last report was constructed and is proving useful.
Our advice has been asked by the Selectmen, acting as a Board of Survey, on proposed subdivisions for development. In this connection, there has been an interesting example of the value to the town of having all such matters referred to this Board.
On account of two different proposed street layouts at the east end of the town, the Board made a study in 1943 of what would be the most advantageous development of a considerable area on the northerly side of the State Road including a pro- posal to locate a future highway paralleling the State Road in that vicinity, not with the idea that it would be desirable to build such a road now, but as a possibility for opening this whole sec- tion to building some time. Interestingly enough, when the parcel of land on State Road was deeded to the Vokes Players by Mrs. Hayward, for the relocation of their theater, the sur- veyor made the rear line of the parcel coincide with the sug- gested street line already put on paper by the Board. Without the previous survey the lot line might have been drawn without any relation whatever to surrounding property or future devel-
126
opment. Instead, fortunately, it could be correlated with long- time plans, thus probably saving the town future expenditures of time and money in the possible development of this area.
This leads us into the third field of work of the Board, and the most interesting one: looking into the future to anticipate the growth of the town, the improvements that may be made to cause it to become a better place to live in, and the methods that may suggest themselves to avoid waste and unnecessary expense to the town and private property owners, as well as to insure a proper development.
Believing that one of the areas most likely to open for development following the war is the large Shaw Estate on the hill between the two villages, the Board has given a good deal of study to this area. Under its direction and with the full co-op- eration of the trustees for the Estate, who bore half the cost, the Board's engineers have prepared a topographical layout with contours through an ingenious and inexpensive method devel- oped by the engineers for enlarging the official Geodetic Survey maps made just before the war by the Federal Government.
By use of these enlarged maps, the Board intends further to study the area and, in co-operation with the Shaw Estate trustees, to mark out the logical locations for the roads needed for its delevopment. When this has been done, the trustees can go ahead with the sale of various parts of the property with full confidence that lots which are sold will fit into the general plans for the future development of the whole town and will meet the approval of the Planning Board, which is now to assume the duties of the Board of Survey.
This whole project will be furthered by including this par- ticular area, or as much of it as possible, in the portion of the work on the Assessors' maps which is to be carried out in 1944. Here we have an excellent example of the possibilities of plan- ning ahead. The County Commissioners at our request laid out Old Connecticut Path which bounds this Estate on the west. It is the purpose of the Assessors as well as of the Planning Board to get this area surveyed for the town map this year; and we have the co-operation of the trustees of the Estate in securing the topographical survey necessary for its development, which will furnish the basis for laying out water mains, constructing streets advantageously, and determining interior property lines. If methods like this could have been followed on large-scale previous developments, thousands of dollars might have been
127
saved the town, and some of its most desirable portions for resi- dence could have been developed in a much more satisfactory way.
Money spent in such preparation for development will be returned manyfold in the years to come.
With this report, the Board closes eighteen years of work under the old planning law, and to the Board that succeeds it under the statute adopted at the last annual meeting, it offers its best wishes.

REPORT ON WAYLAND TOWN MAP Under direction of Board of Assessors and Planning Board For the Year 1943
The work of mapping the town under the joint direction of the Board of Assessors and the Planning Board, which was so well begun in 1942, has been continued in 1943 at a some- what accelerated pace with the increased appropriation allowed by the town. Of the fifty-six sections of two hundred fifty acres each into which the surveyors marked off the town, six were done in 1942; but in 1943 twelve were completed and six others begun. The total two years' work includes mapping accurately thirty-two hundred acres, or approximately five square miles, one-third of the town's area. The largest portion, geographically, of the work done, is in the north end of the town. This was at the Assessors' request because it was in that portion that they previously had the least information as to areas and boundary lines.
Though not as great in area, the work done in Cochituate took a much larger portion of the surveyor's time proportion- ately on account of the hundreds of small lots included. A con- siderably larger amount of work is planned for that area for 1944 should the town grant another substantial appropriation.
For the year 1944, it is hoped to complete the six plates already in process, and from seven to ten additional plates according to the amount of the appropriation provided. The present time is especially favorable for this work, because civil engineers are not nearly as busy now as they undoubtedly will be when the war is over, because private construction is prac- tically forbidden. For this reason, the joint Boards in charge of the work favor an accelerated program now, in order that this accurate, basic map, which is fundamental to the town's future progress, may be ready before the post-war building movement gets underway, as most real estate experts confidently expect that it will after the war. The Boards have the highest praise for the excellent work and the hearty cooperation they have received from Mr. Everett Brooks and his co-workers in the preparation of the map.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF FIRE ENGINEERS For the Year Ending December 31, 1943
The Board of Fire Engineers of the Town of Wayland for 1943 organized as follows: Theodore H. Harrington, Chief; Ernest H. Damon, Deputy Chief and Clerk of the Board; Homer L. MacDonald, Superintendent of Fire Alarms; George F. Dickey, District Chief, and Thomas E. Hynes, Clerk of the Wayland Company.
The department answered a total of 127 alarms during the year. There were eleven fires in buildings resulting in a loss of less than $7,000. This is a very large decrease in this type of fires but was offset by the increase in grass, woods and brush fires, most of which were caused by people burning without permits.
Extracts from Section 13, Chapter 581 are printed to show the seriousness of starting fires without permits and the heavy penalties for so doing.
Section 13. No person shall set, maintain or increase a fire in the open air at any time unless the ground is substantially covered with snow, except by written permission, covering a period not exceeding five days from the date thereof, granted by a forest warden or chief of the fire department in cities and towns, or, in cities having such an official, the fire commissioner ; provided, that no such permit shall be granted to be exercised during any portion of the months of April and May except upon rainy days. Whoever violates any provision of this section - shall be punished by a fine of not more than one hundred dol- lars or by imprisonment for not more than one month or both.
Extra care should be taken with old electrical equipment used in the home, as much of it has become badly worn and replacements and repairs are hard to obtain. Inspect all drop cords for defects.
It is hoped that enough interest can be aroused to properly man the auxiliary equipment which is being allotted to Wayland,
131
especially in Wayland Village where there is located a trailer pump and other material in sufficient amounts to form a fine unit.
Apparatus and equipment are in good condition but the department is handicapped by lack of men available during day- light hours, many call men being employed in defense industries.

The Board has investigated many complaints during the year, and all were taken care of.
The children entering school received the Anti-Toxin test for the prevention of diphtheria, recommended by the State Board of Health.
The Board believes that the different clinics held in the schools are very beneficial to the chldren, and it hopes that they will be continued.
The Board feels that there are many cases of diseases dangerous to the public health that are not reported. If you have a case of this nature in your house and you do not have a doctor, it should be reported by the head of the family.

A sum of money was voted at the Town Meeting for the purpose of collecting garbage. The Board of Selectmen and the Board of Health held a meeting at which a date was set for the awarding of the contract. The one bidder who was inter- ested was unable to obtain the three year performance bond for which the people voted. So the Boards called a second meeting and once again attempted to award the contract. But the new bidder who presented himself was also unable to secure a three year performance bond. In each case, the bidders could obtain only a one year bond. Hence, the contract was not awarded.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE For the Year 1943
The Welfare Department has continued to perform its duties and has endeavored to follow the requirements of the State and Federal laws and regulations as communicated to them from time to time.
The new law relating to Old Age Assistance went into effect early in the fall and all budgets were revised to meet the new requirements. This resulted in an increase in the amount paid in many cases. That part of the new law, requiring children to contribute to their parents' support, has resulted in some reduction in the sums paid by the Town. This result can be expected to continue only as long as war time conditions of full employment at liberal wages remains. At the present time there are eighty-one cases as compared with ninety-two cases at the beginning of 1943.
