Annual Report of the Board of Selectmen
The Board organized on March 4, 1941, John H. Gar- della being unanimously elected Chairman, Patrick Car- roll and John H. Henderson being the remaining members of the Board.
The projects sponsored by the Board under the Works Progress Administration, are outlined in the re- port of the Co-ordinator and need not be repeated. The discontinuance of the Assessors' Block plan, the Engineer- ing Survey, the book-binding in the Town Library and housekeeping aid and sewing projects, was a source of dissappointment, as they were not only useful, but pro- vided work for that portion of the unemployed who were unable to perform physical manual labor. In spite of continuous efforts with the Federal authorities by the Board, the projects were not resumed up to the close of 1941.
The project for compiling the Legislative Acts ac- cepted by the Town and codifying the Town By-Laws, Traffic Rules and other Regulations was completed and the work is now in the hands of the printer. An appro- priation was made therefor (Art. 18, Annual Town Meet- ing 1941), a charge of twenty-five cents per copy being fixed by the Vote. They will be ready for distribution shortly.
Final action was taken by the Board amending the traffic rules limiting parking time upon certain streets as a result of recommendations by a committee appointed under Art. 27 at the 1940 Annual Town Meeting, in ac-
27
cordance with the recommendation by this Board in its Report of 1939. Signs are being installed on the streets affected and as soon as copies of the codification are ready for public distribution, it is up to the Police De- partment to see that they are enforced.
The Zoning Rules and Regulations which were adop- ted under Art. 9 at a Special Meeting held October 23, 1940, failed to win the approval of the Attorney General because too long a time elapsed between the time the Zoning Committee made its report and its adoption. The whole project will now have to be started over again and we recommend that a new committee be appointed for the purpose of filing a report at a future Town meeting for its consideration.
During the year the reconstruction of Purchase Street was completed under Chapter 90 provisions, the State and County paying three-fourths of the cost. The work was done under private contract awarded to the lowest bidder.
Although funds were made available under Art. 11 of the Annual Meeting of 1941 for construction of Congress Street, the State had insufficient funds to meet its share of the allotment. An allotment has been made by the State and County for this work in 1942 and an article will be inserted in the Warrant to cover the Town's share of the cost. This is subject to modification, however, on account of part of the State's money for this purpose be- ing allotted for defense measures.
Several parcels of real estate owned by the Town un- der tax title foreclosure in the Land Court were sold, the Board being so authorized at the Annual Meeting of 1941.
The program of installing new street signs and repair- ing the damaged ones was continued as far as the money appropriated would allow.
28
On recommendation of the Board, the benefits of the Workmen's Compensation Act were extended to cover foremen and sub-foremen in the Highway Department (Art. 16, Annual Meeting 1941).
At the 1941 Annual Meeting, the following streets were laid out and accepted by the Town as public ways: Blanchard Road (Art. 27), Cunniff Avenue (Art. 29), Church Hill Road (Art. 31), Bacon Slip (Art. 34), Hamil- ton Avenue (Art. 35), Extension of North Street (Art. 39), and Beaver Street Extension (Art. 15, Special Meeting June 23, 1941). The acceptance of these streets enabled sewers to be constructed and electricity furnished where a demand was made by the abutors.
An important amendment to the By-Laws was adop- ted requiring Department heads, when an award of a contract is made other than to the lowest bidder, to sub- mit, in writing, an explanation of the reason therefor with the Town Clerk (Art. 38, Annual Meeting 1941).
During the year, the Board has co-operated with the Federal and State authorities with respect to the various civilian defense activities to such extent as the Board, by law, was allowed. In behalf of the Town, we wish to thank all those who, in many ways, have participated in carrying on this patriotic work.
Because of the amount of uncollected taxes outstand- ing, the Division of Accounts would not allow any appro- priation from the Excess and Deficiency Account to apply to the Tax Rate in 1941. Early attention to liquidating 1941 and prior taxes should be given by the Tax Collec- tor and application for its use should be made to the Di- vision of Accounts in ample season before the Tax rate is fixed for 1942.
29
During the year the public parking area on the south side of town hall was completed under W. P. A. auspices. We think that the construction of additional parking areas in the vicinity of Main Street should be undertaken. The area north of town hall is available for that purpose. It may be thought advisable that areas adjacent to the rear of Main Street .between Lincoln Square and the Post Office section should also be provided. We recommend the appointment of a committee to investigate this prob- lem and make a report to the Selectmen for further ac- tion.
We wish to thank the townspeople and all the town departments for their cooperation during the year.
Respectfully submitted,

Report of the Highway Surveyor
To the voters of the Town of Milford:
Herewith I submit my report as Highway Surveyor for the year 1941.
The general appropriation of $25,000.00, an increase of approximately $5000.00 over previous years, made possible the employment of additional labor from April to November, conduct a "clean up week", re-establish the weekly refuse removal from the business section, place resepticals for the disposal of waste along the Main street sidewalks, keep our streets cleaner, drainage structures more servicable, remove many stones and sec- tions of ledge from roadways, and give additional atten- tion to the essential maintenance of our highways.
If the same service is to be maintained during 1942, it is my opinion that a general appropriation of $28,500.00 will be necessary, due to the advance in the cost of all essential material and operating expenses.
Resurfacing
During 1941 the entire appropriation of $8000.00 for . street resurfacing was expended for materials, all labor costs were charged to the general appropriation, and it is my intention to do the same in 1942. Several miles of street surfaces were treated this year with either tar or asphalt. On some streets, conditions were such that it was first necessary to fill the deep gutters with bituminous material. Many miles of our streets still require surface treatment, as well as nearly twenty miles of gravel roads that have never been treated. In 1942 I am re- questing an appropriation of $9500.00 for resurfacing, an increase of $1500.00 over 1941.

Snow and Ice Removal
At a special Town Meeting December 2, 1941, the Town Meeting members voted to adopt a by-law em- powering the Highway Dept. with the right to remove vehicles from the public highways if they interfere with the removal of snow and ice. In my opinion the adoption of the by-law was very necessary, and unless owners persist in leaving their vehicles on the highway, I have no intention of entailing any undo hardship or expense on any one. The police Dept. has been very co-operative, and starting November 1st. have kept the streets prac- tically free from all night parking.
· The enormous increase in high speed winter traffic has made the removal of snow and icy pavement a major problem. A roadway slippery with ice, trans- forms the automobile from a comfortable conveyance, into a menace to property and life. A street clogged with snow impedes all motor traffic, principally emergency vehicles. Considerable money is saved by having suf- ficient equipment to remove the snow as soon as pos- sible, and the public now demands that streets and highways be kept open to travel, regardless of cost.
I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of Selectmen, Finance Commission, 'Town Ac- countant, and all other Town Departments for their co- operation, and the Citizens of Milford for their patience and good will during the past year.
