SPECIAL TOWN MEETING, MAY 16, 1916.
COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS.
Worcester, ss.
Milford, May 16, 1916.
At a legal meeting of the inhabitants of the town of Mil- ford, qualified by law to vote in elections and in town affairs, holden this sixteenth day of May, A. D. 1916, at 8 o'clock in the evening, in Town Hall, the said inhabitants proceeded as follows :-
The meeting was called to order by the town clerk, who read the warrant and the officer's return thereon.
Under Article 1: The meeting made choice of John T. McLoughlin as moderator, the vote being unanimous.
Article 2. The Finance Commission made the following report on road appropriations :
REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMISSION.
The Finance Commission is unquestionably convinced of the necessity of improving Congress and Purchase streets. The large amount of taxable property 'served by the two thoroughfares and the large number of people who are com-
34
pelled to use them plainly justify better accommodations there than exist at the present time. For this purpose, per- sons interested have caused an examination of these streets to be made by a qualified engineer, and clear and concise esti- mates have been submitted thereon.
For these reasons we are slow to recommend that Arti- cles 1, 5 and 6 relative to improvements upon these streets be passed upon adversely.
However the duty of this commission is to consider the entire matter as a financial proposition and what the ultimate cost will be to those who will have to pay the bill .. We there- fore submit the following suppositions from which the tax- payers themselves can judge whether or not the town ought to build the streets at this time, and if so, what the cost will be as shown by the tax rate resulting.
Assuming the state tax, the county tax and the state highway tax, remain the same as in 1915, and the valuation of the town to remain unchanged, the appropriations already made in March (exceeding 1915 as they do $18,469) have made the tax rate $22.20 per thousand, an increase of $1.50 over 1915.
Excluding Articles 4-5-6 of the present warrant $3,350.00 is asked for to cover other matters, and if this sum is granted it will mean a further increase of 35 cents, or $22.55.
Articles 4 5-6, the road articles, call for $26,562.50. If these are all passed upon favorably and the money appropri- ated from the current levy it will mean a further increase of $2.65 in the rate, or $25.10.
On the other hand, if this sum be spent over a period of five years, starting with $7000 in 1916, and the balance equal- ly appropriated for the remaining four years, it will mean, ex- cluding interest, an increase in 1916 of but 70 cents per thou- sand, or a total rate of $23.25 per thousand.
In all these estimates an overlay of $1,125 to $1,692 is provided, so that the figures here given are approximately correct. In this we were assisted by the assessors, to whom tbe commission wishes to convey its thanks.
35
Upon these facts it is the opinion of the majority that the town should not attempt to raise the entire amount from one year's tax levy and make a rate of $25.10 To do so would be thrusting an unwarranted burden upon the tixpayers already struggling under a comparatively exorbitant rate, and would not be justified by an urgent public demand.
We therefore recommend that if the town should vote to build the streets as provided in Articles 4, 5 and 6 the sum of $27,000 be appropriated for, the same to be paid for by bonds or notes of the town of Milford as follows : $7,000 in 1916, $5,000 in 1917, $5,000 in 1918, $5,000 in 1919, and $5,000 in 1920.
