TOWN OF RANDOLPH, MASS.
Report of the Selectmen and Overseers of Public Welfare
Randolph is now one of the fastest growing towns in this area. This condition should be encouraged as im- proved property means greater income and lower taxes. Good Town Government will attract prospective home- builders.
Your Board during the past year has spent every ef- fort to run the affairs of the Town on a business-like basis. We make no claim to be professional politicians who de- rive their principal source of income from compensation received from the Town. We believe, however, that what we might have lacked in experience has been outweighed by our insistance on efficient government, judicious ex- penditure of town funds, and a will to make Randolph a better town in which to live.
Large savings have been made during the past year due to the public advertising for bids on supplies and services required by the Town. This practice should be continued.
Much tax-title land has been sold thereby returning that land to a tax bearing status.
Overdrafts by departments have been kept at a mini- mum.
Center Street, South Street and Tilton Street have been laid out by the County and we have requested the State to rebuild Liberty Street and construct a surface drainage system through the center of the Town in 1948 under the Chapter 90 road building program. Centre Street should be so-built in 1949.
[ 9]
ONE HUNDRED AND TWELFTH ANNUAL REPORT
We regret that due to a severe shortage of materials the Electric Light Company has been unable to install all the street lights voted by the Town but they assure us that as soon as the materials are available these lights will be installed.
Your Board has inserted an Article in the 1948 War- rant for the periodic collection of rubbish. This Article, we believe, should be adopted by the Town as under pres- ent conditions rubbish disposal presents an expensive and inconvenient problem to all residents.
We thank the various town officials, department and committee heads for the help which they have given us during the past year.
We wish to remind all citizens of the Town that the obligation to attend the Annual Town Meeting is theirs. It is here that your tax dollars are appropriated and the tax-rate of the Town is determined by these appropria- tions. Greater interest in Town Government will result in better and more economical Town services.
