REPORT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN - 1955
Mr. Thomas Francis Linnehan was elected to the Board of Select- men at the Annual Town Meeting in March, and the Board of Selectmen organized by electing Mr. John W. Leavitt as Chairman, and Mr. Frank S. Tarr as Clerk. The regular annual appointments, as required by statute, have been made and they appear in the list of Town Officers and Committees. Mr. Edward N. Perry was reappointed as Secretary to the Board. Mr. Roger P. Stokey was reappointed as Town Counsel. During the year Mr. Stokey's resignation was accepted with deep regret by the Board of Selectmen. In his several years as Town Counsel, he had served the Town faithfully and efficiently. Mr. Frank Kilburn was appointed to fill the vacancy.
The Board held all its regular meetings during 1955, many special meetings were required and held. Many public hearings were also held. The Board issued over 300 licenses during the year, and received over $9,000.00 from this source. These funds have been turned over to the Town Treasurer.
The Board, together with the Trustees of the Allen Fund, and the Board of Public Welfare, met and disbursed the income received from the Charitable Funds.
The report of the annual audit by the Department of Corporations and Taxation of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is on file at the Town Hall.
Once again the Town suffered extensive damage from the hurricanes and the accompanying floods. Application has again been made to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for qualified reimbursement for funds expended.
The Selectmen, in conjunction with the Selectmen of the bordering towns, have once again perambulated the bounds as required by statute.
Public hearings have been held on several betterment petitions for streets and the recommendations will be forthcoming at the Special and Annual Town Meeting.
The following named were drawn during the year to serve as jurors:
Lawrence Collins
Ruth M. Black
Oliver Ames Jennie M. Kincare
Edmund L. Thompson Anna M. Jarboe
Richard S. Herrmann
Dr. Katherine Andrews
Several condemnation hearings were held in conjunction with the Board of Health, and their decisions were made accordingly.
The members of the Board of Selectmen have served on various other Town Committees as follows:
Mr. Linnehan was designated to serve on the School Site Com- mittee and also on the Committee to Prepare and Distribute the Town Report.
Mr. Leavitt was appointed to serve on the New Town Hall Committee.
Mr. Tarr was named to the Committee to Study the Water Level of Dudley Pond.
48
Innumerable meetings have been held with all the various State Departments regarding the erection of a new bridge to replace the old bridge at Stone Bridge Road.
The Board of Selectmen, in their judgment, refused to close Route 30 during the construction of the Toll Road. The Board felt that they could not close this road in fairness to the motoring citizens of our town using this road every day.
Vigorous protests have been filed with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts due to the hazardous conditions on Route 30 near Frost Street. These conditions have been brought about by the construction of a section of this road by the Toll Road Authority in the adjoining Natick area.
The Board of Selectmen intend to recommend that a committee be appointed by the Town Meeting to study the public safety aspects, especially with reference to enlarging the Police and Fire Departments.
Once again the Board of Selectmen wish to thank all town officials and employees for their splendid cooperation during the past year. The Board also wishes to thank all committees for their efforts on behalf of the Town during the year.
JOHN W. LEAVITT FRANK S. TARR THOMAS FRANCIS LINNEHAN Board of Selectmen.
