Departmental:


This account shows amounts due from the Common- wealth and other towns because of Welfare and Old Age Assistance rendered by the Town of Plainville for people living in Plainville and residents of other communities. Re- serves are set up and when collected are treated the same as other reserves.

ANNUAL REPORT


Tax Titles:


$1,340.21 is the amount of taxes due on property taken by the town for non-payment. The reserve for this account is also treated the same as other reserves.


Water Rates:


This represents the amount of unpaid water rates and services outstanding at December 31, 1936. A reserve is set up for these until collected.


Reserve for Water Extension:


$925.90 is the unexpended balance from the Washington Street water extension and will remain as a reserve until such time as the town votes to further extend the water system or for some other project of a nature which requires an outlay for a period of five years or more.


Reserve for Road Machinery Equipment:


During the year $1,335.52 has been credited to this ac- count for work done on the highways by equipment owned by the Town of Plainville. From this account additional equip- ment or replacements can be or purchased but only by a vote of the Town.


Reserve Fund-Overlay Surplus: !


Overlay reserve is an accumulation of overlay balances after the taxes have all been collected for the year for which this overlay was reserved. From this account transfers can be made to the extra-ordinary account by a vote of the town. By such a vote no money would have to be raised by taxa- tion by the amount so transferred.


Surplus Revenue:


The Surplus Revenue at the close of December 31, 1936 was $30, 635.26. This is the amount of cash available if all taxes were paid and after all obligations were liquidated.


Debt Account:


During 1936 the debt account was reduced $2,400.00 and the present balance outstanding is $4,400.00. In 1937 the final payment on the Water Bonds will have been com- pleted. The amount to be raised for the reduction of bonds and notes for 1937 will be $2,400.00. See exhibit four for the maturities of the balance of the Debt Account.


161


ANNUAL REPORT


General:


During the year under review the Town borrowed only $10,000.00 which was the lowest amount borrowed for many years and this can be partly attributed to our surplus revenue. The financial condition of the town is in a very excellent state. Last years tax was $30.00 a reduction of $8.00 from the previous year and with careful management a further reduc- tion can be made for 1937. Your finance committee is working toward this end and with the co-operation of the taxpayers this can be accomplished.


At this time I wish to thank the Honorable Board of Selectmen and other officials from whom I have received splendid assistance during the year.


Respectfully submitted,


EDWARD OSTERHOLM,


Treasurer

AUDITOR'S REPORT


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen,


Gentlemen :-


This is to certify that the accounts of the Treasurer have been duly examined by me and found correct.


The books of the Collector of Taxes and the Water Department have been examined. The amounts collected and paid the Treasurer and the amounts uncollected have been found to agree with the statements of the Treasurer.


All other departments receiving or disbursing money have been found to agree with the records of the Treasurer.


Respectfully submitted,


ALICE E. RIBERO,


Town Auditor


REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN


To the Town of Plainville,


During 1936, our actual Welfare Aid was not so high as during previous years, as has been, due to the cooperation of our Superintendent of Highways.


Our Old Age Assistance cases have increased over fifty (50) percent due to the change in the law regarding age limit.


We wish at this time to say that the people working on the W. P. A. in Plainville during the year of 1936 have received approximately $16,000.00 in wages.


During 1936, the highway department has resurfaced a number of our country roads, putting approximately 8,000 yards of gravel on them which was badly needed, and which was very necessary before these roads could be made into


171


ANNUAL REPORT


hard surface roads. This we hope to be able to do to part of these roads during the coming year. We also laid about 2,000 feet of drainage pipe and installed seven (7) catch basins around various parts of the Town which were very much needed.


The Town Truck and Loader which were purchased dur- ing the last two (2) years have again proven their worth this year and they have more than paid for themselves. We recommend at this time that our present truck be turned in for a new one.


With the assistance of the various Town Officials, your Board has kept the running expenses of the Town down to a minimum wherever possible. Through these efforts, as you know, the Town was able last year to reduce the tax rate from $38.00 per thousand to $30.00. We are hoping this year and anticipate that we will be able to give the tax payers a further reduction in their tax rate. We pledge our support to maintain this plan and at the same time stay on the pay as you go basis.


We wish at this time to thank all of the Town Officers for their sincere cooperation during the past year.


Respectfully submitted, EARLE F. BARNEY,


CHARLES H. PEASLEY,
