BOARD OF APPEAL
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF APPEAL
January 31, 1936.
OFFICE OF THE BOARD OF APPEAL CITY HALL, SOMERVILLE, MASS.
TO THE HONORABLE, THE MAYOR, AND THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN, OF THE CITY OF SOMERVILLE :
Gentlemen :
The Board of Appeal respectfully submits the following report for the year ending December 31, 1935 :
Chapter 269, Acts of 1933, of the General Laws has greatly enlarged the powers and duties of the Board of Appeal in the cities and towns which have established Zoning Laws, and helped to clarify certain provisions which prior to its passage were vague. Section 30 of the aforesaid Chapter, expressly points out that the Board of Appeal "may in appropriate cases and subject to appropriate conditions and safeguards, make special exceptions to the terms of the ordinances or by-laws in harmony with their general purpose and intent, and in accord- ance with general or specific rules therein contained."
The Board of Appeal therefore is an important depart- ment of the city's work. It has been delegated by statute with extraordinary power. Therefore it is very important that care- ful deliberation be given to the appeals of all appellants and that the final decisions of the Board be carefully made. Zoning laws were expressly made in order to protect land values, and the best way to kill land values in a given area, is to make it impossible for that area to function.
During the past year all of the members of the Board have made it a part of their duty in conjunction with the work of hearing and deciding appeals to visit the places that would be affected by the appeal before them.
As has been the custom in the past, your Board was com- pelled to refuse the appeals of nine appellants due to the fact
366
ANNUAL REPORTS
that the derogation from the real intent and purpose of the zoning and building laws would be too great.
Your Board wishes to again call your attention to the fact that the present city zoning map was made in 1925, and that many changes in the growth of the city have taken place since that time. The Board sincerely suggests that the Planning Board take into consideration the re-zoning of certain areas, more particularly along the Monsignor McGrath Boulevard, commonly known as the Northern Artery, which could now be developed to bring greater revenue to the city.
In the past year it was necessary for the Board to hold twenty-seven meetings for the consideration of appeals taken from the decisions of the Commissioner of Public Buildings refusing to grant permits which conflicted with the provisions of the Zoning, Building or Fire District Ordinances.
The Board wishes to report that it has received the fullest cooperation and assistance from the Commissioner of Public Buildings, the City Solicitor, the Fire Chief and all other city officials, and sincerely hopes that its work in the past year has been satisfactory to both the city's welfare and the appellants.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN D. MEDEIROS, Chairman, HERBERT W. CARR, Secretary, WILLIAM T. CROTTY, EDWARD L. HAGAN, WILLIAM J. WRIGHT. (SIGNED)

SANITARY DEPARTMENT
The total estimated collections of garbage amounted to 17,000 cords.
The above figures are approximate and are based on the general average of amounts carried by the trucks.
The garbage has been collected by contract which provides for collection twice a week throughout the year which as a whole, I believe has been pretty faithfully adhered to.
The ashes and refuse are being collected with motor trucks on account of the distance to the Medford dumps, which are being used by this department subject to the rules and regula- tions of the Board of Health of the City of Medford.
The fire hazard on the dumps is now one of the most im- portant considerations and the cost of fire prevention is heavier than ever before. This is mostly due to the building develop- ments which are drawing nearer to the dumps.
The department as a whole is operating efficiently and with the citizens cooperation we shall continue to carry on in the usual manner.
I wish to thank His Honor the Mayor and the heads of Departments for their cooperation extended during the year.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN F. MESKELL,
