VOTES ENACTED AT THE ANNUAL TOWN MEETING, MARCH 9, 1949
Town Clerk's Office, Wayland, Massachusetts, March 9, 1949.
Howard S. Russell, Moderator :
Pursuant to the following warrant the inhabitants of the Town of Wayland met this day and did the following business. The Moderator declared a quorum present and proceeded to transact the business of the meeting.
Article 1. To hear reports of the Town Officers, Agents and Committees, and act thereon.
Mr. Gerald Liscombe, in behalf of the Planning Board, presented the following requests to be presented to the Com- missioners of Public Utilities of the Commonwealth of Massa- chusetts, which were unanimously voted by the Town :
"The Town of Wayland in town meeting assembled respectfully, represents to the Commissioners of Public Util- ities of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts :
That the proposed overhead high voltage power line peti- tioned for by the Edison Electric Company to run for 16.8 miles between Saxonville and Waltham by way of Sudbury, Wayland and Lincoln would irretrievably damage some of the most attractive areas remaining open for future build- ing in greater Boston.
Its erection would be in direct disregard of our zoning by-law by turning 165 acres now zoned as residential into industrial land. This would be done against the will of the townspeople, and of the homeowners in its path who have unanimously opposed its erection even though compensation is offered them for the land directly taken.
The proposed overhead line would severely reduce pres- ent and potential value of the property of many other citizens who would have no possibility of receiving any damages.
44
All this loss and damage may easily be avoided if the line is carried underground along the proposed eight mile route through public ways, and, we are convinced, at no sub- stantial increase in cost to the company. We believe that the underground method would also be to the permanent advantage of the Edison Company itself.
This Annual Town meeting therefore respectfully re- quests your Commission, acting in the public interest and for the public convenience, to direct the Edison Company to place its high voltage line underground and prevent this wholly unnecessary and, we believe, economically and morally inde- fensible damage to our beautiful town."
Mr. Frank Tarr gave a report of progress for the Lake Cochituate Recreation Committee and asked that the Commit- tee be given more time. Voted to accept the report and the Committee given more time.
