FIRE PREVENTION
The Officers and Men of the Attleboro Fire Department made 2, 791 inspections during the past year. Schools, rest homes, kindergartens, and hospitals are inspected monthly. Stores, business establishments and factories have received some inspections.
Many complaints have been received and investigated. Where hazards were found, the proper authorities were notified to rectify same.
A great deal of fire prevention work was done during Fire Prevention Week with the help of the Mayor and the Committee he appointed for this work. Fine assistance was also given us by the Chamber of Commerce, the local insurance agencies, the newspapers, Radio Station W. A. R. A., the churches , various clubs, and the hospital in making this fire prevention program the success it was.
15.
Annual Report
Report of the Fire Department continued-
The Deputy Chiefs made many inspections during Fire Prevention Week, aided by the Captains and Men of the Department. Harold Wellman, assisted by some of the firefighters, showed pictures to various groups. Films were shown in all the schools in the city.
If it were possible, we would recommend that all factories and mercantile buildings be inspected regularly. However, at the present time, we do not have the man power to do this.
The establishment of a Fire Prevention Bureau to have charge of all in- spections, with men assigned for daily checking, would do much to reduce the fire hazards.
AMBULANCES
The two Sturdy Memorial Hospital ambulances are operated by the De- partment, with men assigned from the Fire Department. They have answered many calls during the past year. We have received many fine compliments about the efficiency of the men on these ambulances.
The Department, however, is reduced two at all times due to this assignment. To operate one ambulance on a seven day basis, it requires seven men out of this Department.
Often during the past year both ambulances have been in use at the same time. When this occurs, we are very short of men for fire fighting duty. Sev- eral times the two ambulances have been out on calls and a Chief's car has been used as an emergency ambulance.
Number of Calls 837
Hours of Service 784 Hours - 34 Minutes
Oxygen Tanks Used 73
AUTO ACCOUNT
This account has been very small for the number of motor equipment pieces in this Department that must be maintained. This account includes all repairs and replacements, also the gasoline account. At lease one truck will have to be overhauled during the coming year which will be an added expense. The Auto Account should be increased as recommended.
STATIONS ACCOUNT
The Stations Account is too small to make any major repairs. This account includes all supplies and equipment purchased, both at the stations and equipment on trucks. It has been used for the maintenance of radio equip- ment, as we do not have a radio account.
HOSE ACCOUNT
It will be necessary to appropriate more money in this account to purchase the same amount of hose as usual, due to increased prices.
16.
Annual Report
Report of the Fire Department continued-
APPAREL ACCOUNT
We recommend the Apparel Account be ($75. 00 ea. man) $6225. 00
83 men )
ALL OTHER ACCOUNT
The All Other Account we recommend to be $500. 00.
In case of injuries or doctors' bills, it will be necessary to request payments, as in the past, by special appropriation.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The Board of Fire Engineers again recommend that a new Fire Station be built at a new location on the West Side of the city, and after such a station is built, the South Main Street Station could be abandoned. A Bungalow Type Station is recommended.
2. We again recommend that consideration be given for an additional Fire Station in the South Attleboro section, nearer the state line, where the city is growing very fast in homes and industry. The value of property in this location has increased greatly. We recommend securing a piece of land for this station. Another station is badly needed.
3. We recommend that some means be found to supply water for fire pro- tection at the Cumberland Engineering Warehouse and Factory property . The water supply here is very inadequate.
4. We recommend that a separate account be set up (either in the Fire Department or the Electrical Branch of the Fire Department) for a radio account. With all the radio equipment now in use, we feel there should be an account for radio expenses.
5. We recommend that new fire alarm boxes be installed in many locations , especially in new plats and where needed in growing locations, where boxes are few and far between. Many places are in need of Fire Alarm Boxes. One of these that need consideration at once is Read Street. There are no alarm boxes from County and Read Streets to West Street. Two or three boxes are needed at this location. All new plats should have fire alarm boxes.
6. We recommend that an appropriation be set up for sick leave. When men are out sick we need this account to hire off duty men to fill in on sickness. We feel this account should be $3,000. 00
7. We recommend that consideration be given to replace Ladder # 3 at the South Main Street Station with a Tractor Drawn 85' aerial ladder truck.
17.
Annual Report
Report of the Fire Department continued-
REPAIRS
8. We recommend that an appropriation be made for repairs to the stations. It is much cheaper to keep stations in good repair at all times. The Hebronville Station needs painting on the outside. ($1200) $1700.
NEW EQUIPMENT
9. We recommend that an appropriation be made for the purcahse of 2 1/2" and 1 1/2" hose, forestry hose and 1, 000 feet of booster hose. $3500.
10. We recommend the purchase of 2 Portable Radios ( P-31-4) $1200 (ea. $600. 00)
11. We recommend that four (4) new men be added to the Fire Department to replace those now used on amubulance duty. We are supposed to have sixty-nine (69) Firefighters in this Department. We only have the use of sixty-five (65); the other four (4) are used entirely for ambulance duty. $18,469.
-
12. We recommend that 8 Radecters Sets be purchased (two for each station). They would be badly needed in case of attack or radiation fallout. (Jordon Electronics Inc. ) (Model #A. G. E. - 500 S-R)
13. We recommend the purchase of 3 smoke ejectors. $1000.

APPRECIATION
We wish at this time to express our appreciation to all who aided and assisted us in the past year.
As always, the Police Department has co-operated and assisted us in performance of duties.
We thank His Honor, the Mayor, Cyril K. Brennan, members of the Municipal Council and the Police and Fire Committee for granting our requests to improve the Department for the protection of our Public.

RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE BUILDING INSPECTOR
1963
1. I recommend that the Building Inspector be separated from the Fire De- partment and that someone outside the Fire Chief be appointed Build- ing Inspector. With the increase in building, a full time Inspector should be appointed.
2. I recommend that the expense account of the Building Inspector be $850. 00; $650. 00 of this to be used for elevator inspections. The balance of $200. 00 for office supplies.
19/
Annual Report
Report of the Building Inspector continued-
3. I recommend that the salary of the Building Inspector be $2, 000. 00
4. I recommend that the salary of the clerk be increased to $2, 500. 00
5. I recommend that consideration be given to adopt an ordinance for a flat fee of $10. 00 for alterations, construction or additions to business or mercantile buildings which are valued at less than $10, 000. 00.
6. Mr. William Wyman of the Providence Elevator Company is the Inspect- or of Elevators for the city. Many elevators were inspected this past year by Mr. Wyman. He recommended necessary repairs on a number of elevators. I recommend that an ordinance be adopted for a fee for elevator in- spections. State Law requires yearly inspections of elevators. Most cities charge a set fee for inspection of elevators.
7. I recommend that the sprinkler ordinance be changed to include one story business buildings without basements.
At this time I wish to express my appreciation for the assistance given me by the Mayor, City Council and for the advice given me by the City Solicitor; the co-operation of the Planning Board and the Board of Appeals; the Zoning Board, Wire Inspector, who have all assisted me on numerous occasions. I also want to thank Deputy Chiefs and anyone who has assisted me in any way.
Respectfully submitted, Herman F. Gorman, Building Inspector.

Annual Report
REPORT OF THE BUILDING CODE COMMISSION 1962
The Mayor and Municipal Council 29 Park Street Attleboro, Mass.
Gentlemen:
It is with pleasure that I submit the third annual report of the Building Code Commission.
The Commission held meetings on the second Thursday of the month throughout the year. Since November of the year the meetings have been held at the Union Street Fire Station.
Mr. Charles Bennett resigned from the Commission in March and was replaced by Guistino T. Marsella, in June.
During the year several applications were received and after due de- liberation the commission submitted to the Building Inspector its decision applicable to the Attleboro Building Ordinance.
A letter was forwarded to the Mayor in November, recommending an addition to the building ordinance to include minimum design criteria for roof loading.
A file cabinet was purchased this year and all commission records are now on file at the Union Street Fire Station.
For the coming year, this commission is planning a comprehensive review of the entire building ordinance.
Respectfully submitted,
BUILDING CODE COMMISSION
Kenneth E. Palmer, Chairman Guistino T. Marsella, Secretary Clifford A. Swanson August H. Schaefer William B. Pitas.

In my annual report of 1961, I stressed upon electrical wiring as used in conjunction with the installation of swimming pools. The hazards and dangers of improper wiring and the use of appliances in the proximity of swimming pools has been recognized by the National Fire Protection Association and a new chapter dealing with swimming pools has been drawn up and inserted in the current edition of the new National Electric Code NFBU No. 70, 1962 edition and is known as "Chapter 680. " The rules set forth in this chapter are very clear and definite and will be so enforced by this department. This will apply to the home owner who anticipates doing his own wiring and to the legitimate licensed contractor. Electricity used in the proximity of a swim- ming pool, if not properly installed, is a great hazard to the life of the users of the pool. National statistics prove this point in their record of fatalities.
This department would like to call attention to the numerous general con- tractors who install metallic siding on homes in this city, that it is definitely compulsory for them to employ the services of a competent licensed electri- cian to remove and replace all electrical services and their immediate com- ponents on any of their work which involves moving of the electrical service.
I now wish to thank most sincerely his Honor, the Mayor, the Munici- pal Council, the Building Inspector, the officers and members of both police

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF FIRE ALARM 1962
To the Board of Fire Engineers, Attleboro Fire Department.
Dear Sirs:
I herewith submit my annual report of the Electrical Branch of the Fire Department for the year ending December 31, 1962.
During the year a total of 786 service calls were made by this depart- ment. These calls include periodic tests of boxes, tests made in conjunction with insurance engineers covering the numerous privately owned master boxes, sprinklers and fire detection equipment. We wish to call attention to the citi- zens of this city and all concerned that through salesmanship and the effort of the members of this department the City of Attleboro has more privately owned self contained fire prevention and detection systems than any other town or city of its size in New England.
February 3 Through an unfortunate accident, a police cruiser knocked down fire alarm box #6 at the corner of Bank and Park Streets. A minimum amount of damage was done to the box and its supporting pedestal.
February 8 A new Master Box 5191 was installed and connected to the interior system of the new Oakhurst Apartments on South, Avenue.
