ANNUAL TOWN MEETING, MARCH 15th, 1961 Commonwealth of Massachusetts
The meeting was called to order by Moderator Curran at 8 P.M. The Monitors checked the list and 180 persons were present.
The Town Clerk read the Warrant and Officers return thereon.
A vacancy in Precinct 1 was filled by the election of Frederick G. Birmingham, 18/2 Mechanic Street, for one year; in Precinct 2 a vacancy was filled by the election of Frank J. M. Hynes, 9 Free Street, for one year.
Under Article 1. Reports were submitted and read.
Report of the Committee on Rules Governing the Annual Town Meetings
Mr. Moderator:
I wish to report for the committee, appointed by the Selectmen under Article 12 of the Town Meeting last March, to study and make recommendations on rules to govern this meeting.
The following were appointed to this committee: Joseph Nealon, John Usher, Francis Bodio, Ricco Ferrucci and John Glennon. This committee met for the purpose of organizing on May 24, 1960. Mr. Glennon was appointed Chairman and Mr. Nealon secretary.
30
This committee held several meetings during the past year and explored every existing rule and condition based on their experience at the Milford Town Meetings. Town Moderator Curran and Town Counsel Compagnone also assisted the committee as regards the issues involved.
The committee feels that several rules changes are necessary to conduct a perfect meeting in Milford; however, it would not be possible to accomplish this in one year.
The committee, in formulating the rules we will suggest be voted at this session, gave particular consideration to the necessity of expediting the Meetings and maintaining the individual members elective right to vote according to his or her own conscience.
Rules and procedures which the committee studied, but which we will not suggest be changed at this session are:
First-The Standing and Ballot method of voting.
Second-The Passover Rule.
Third-The honesty of the method of taking the ballot vote.
Fourth-The method of establishing a quorum.
Rules and procedures which the committee studied and unani- mously purports should be adopted are as follows:
Recommendation No. 1-That the committee to study and prepare rules of procedure by which the Town Meeting shall be governed by extending for one year and report at the next annual Town Meeting.
Recommendation No. 2-That Section 4 be added to Article 2 Rules and shall read: Section 4: Reconsideration. Reconsideration of any motion or article or any amendment to any motion or article will be allowed if:
The first motion for reconsideration is approved by a majority vote of the members present. The second motion for reconsideration is approved by a two-thirds majority vote of the members present. The third motion for reconsideration is approved by a two-thirds majority vote of the members present and said third motion for reconsideration be allowed for vote at a time after all other articles in the Warrant have been acted upon.
Recommendation No. 3-That Section 5 be added to Article 2 Rules and shall read: Any items of equipment or fixtures, normally referred to as "capital expenditures" or equipment and fixtures whose cost is in excess of $500.00 and whose expected life is one year or more, shall not be included in the general budget of depart- ments.
31
If said items of equipment and fixtures, as described above, are included in the general budget of departments article, said items shall be considered by separate motion.
I move that this report be received as read.
For the Committee, JOHN T. GLENNON, Chairman
Voted: That this report be received as read.
The vote now was taken on the Rules and it was vcted:
RULE No. 1
Voted: That recommendation of No. 1 of the Rules Committee report be accepted. That the committee to study and prepare rules of procedure by which the Town Meeting shall be governed be extended for one year and report at the next annual Town Meeting.

The second motion for reconsideration is approved by a two-thirds majority vote of the members present. The third motion for recon- sideration is approved by a two-thirds majority vote of the members present and said third motion for reconsideration be allowed for vote at a time after all other articles in the Warrant have been acted upon.

Report of Library Survey Committee 1961
The committee organized in accordance with Article No. 18 of the 1960 Town Meeting to survey present Library facilities and known as the "Library Survey Committee" herewith submits its report:
As a matter of background and interest your present Library was established in 1884 by act of The Town Meeting of that year. The building in reference, known as Memorial Hall, was established as a memorial to war veterans and in the act of building this memo- rial, a section of the building was designated as a Public Library. The area so designated comprised less than 2,000 square feet which, at that time, was more than adequate for such a facility. This area was located on the ground floor of Memorial Hall and consisted of three rooms and a small office.
At the present time, almost 80 years later, your Library has the same dimensions and space available for use by the public. There are some 31,000 volumes stored here in addition to periodicals and reference material. The main room includes a small book checking desk, stacks for storage of a majority of the books and a small chil- dren's section. The other room is the reading and reference section with facilities to seat 18 people and minimal storage of material for ready reference periodicals. The remaining space consists of an office which is 11 feet by 11 feet in area and is used by the Library staff for preparation and repair of books and storage. This, the committee found, was the entire area available for Library use.
Upon investigation it was found that the circulation of books was over 66,000 for 1960, an increase of 10,000 over the past several years with more than 6,000 registered Library users. The Reading Room is constantly overcrowded and this was revealed by a close check on its use over a period of three weeks. The check revealed an average of 30 - 40 people using this room in the evening alone, necessitating attempts to seat people throughout the Library, since this room can accommodate only 18 patrons at one sitting. The committee found all book stacks filled to capacity and window ledges in use to store material.
The current space standards which form the basis for most space recommendations indicate that based upon Milford's present population, at least 11,000 square feet of floor space is minimum for our Public Library. Included in this amount of floor space would be accommodations for 78 people at one time. Of this there would be a space for 27 children and remainder for adults. In comparison with the 11,000 feet with facilities for 78 a minimum, we occupy less than 2,000 feet with facilities for 44.

As a result of these findings, the committee has consulted with the American Legion Subcommittee concerning the possible release of some of the Legion area to Library use. However, no conclusions have been drawn nor has the Library Committee made any concrete request because of the need of engineering consultation as to what part, if any, would be structurally suitable.
It has been found that support of your Library, financially and space wise, has been not only far below national and state averages but also is below the majority of similar towns with the same popula- tion. Having found a dire need for additional space, the committee feels there is a possibility of acquiring such space either in the present building, with an addition to the building or possibly a combination of both.
This committee therefore recommends that the Town vote to continue the study, to vote a minimum for engineering and survey data, and to direct the committee to bring recommendations to the next annual Town Meeting as to a solution to the Library problem.

Milford School Building Committee Report
March 1961
In compliance with the provisions of Article 23 of the 1960 Town Meeting and articles of previous Town Meetings, the follow- ing report of the Milford School Building Committee is respectfully submitted:
The Memorial School has been completed and has been occu- pied by pupils since September of 1959.
The Wendell T. Phillips Associates have indicated that the contractor has fulfilled his responsibility completely, with the excep- tion of three minor items which are in the process of negotiation. It is expected that agreement on these three minor items will be reached within a matter of days, and that the financial transaction involved will also be completed.
To date, the amount of $843,851.48 has been expended, leaving an unexpended balance of $957.48, which will adequately cover the minor items referred to above.
34
As soon as the financial transaction is completed and the architect certifies as to the fulfillment by the contractor of his obli- gations, the building will be formally transferred from the jurisdic- tion of the Milford School Building Committee to the Milford School Committee.
The remaining portion of this report will be devoted to the directive spelled out in Article No. 23 of the 1960 Town Meeting, to wit: "to make a continuing survey and study with relation to the need for school facilities," as follows:
The Milford School Building Committee, as a result of investi- gation and deliberation during the previous year, is of the opinion that housing space considerations, curriculum offering to our pupils, as well as good business practices, indicate the desirability of the Town's taking the necessary steps to acquire land at the earliest possible date for use as the location for future school construction.
The School Building Committee recommends favorable con- sideration of Article No. 49 of the 1961 Town Meeting as a necessary preliminary step toward the acquisition of land for school purposes.
Respectfully submitted, MILFORD SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE DAVID I. DAVOREN, Secretary
Voted: That the report of the Milford School Building Com- mittee be accepted as submitted, and that this meeting authorize the continuance of the Milford School Building Committee for the pur- poses of terminating the business of the construction of the Memorial School and proceeding further with the survey and study of future school building needs and report on the same to the next annual town meeting.
Report of Personnel Board
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of Milford:
The Personnel Board in its report to the 1960 Annual Town Meeting stated that its objective, was a plan which will provide the town employees with wages or salaries, and, with benefits that will compare favorably with those of other cities and towns of similar population, and circumstances, and with those of private industry in the community.
At that time we also reported that such a plan would take a little time to complete and it did not seem that the task should be very difficult, but, we soon found that there were reasons why it was not as simple as we had anticipated, and because it appears that there is a need for better understanding of the problem, we will, in this report try to provide a better understanding.
35
One of the reasons for our difficulties, is, that many of the cities and towns throughout the state, lag in their adjustment of municipal wages and salaries to meet the increases in the cost of living, and increases in the wage level of private industry. For us to compare the rates for Milford Town Employees with the rates in those cities and towns would be extremely unfair to the Milford Employees. On the other hand, to compare the rates of Milford Employees with those of cities and towns located in higher cost of living areas and higher labor market areas, would be equally unfair to the taxpayer. The same is true in regard to state compensation plans, for the reason, that the maximum rates in these plans must logically be considered as being intended for use in the higher cost of living and labor market areas.
For the year 1961, the Board is recommending an increase of 31/3% based on the increase in the cost of living and the increase in the wage level in private industry. Additional increases are being recommended for some positions to correct inequities, which have crept into the wage structure over a period of years. We believe that with the increases recommended, that the wage level at Milford would be on a comparable level of cities and towns of similar popu- lation and circumstances.
It should be understood, however, that if this level is to be maintained, further adjustment to meet further increases in the cost of living and in the wage level of private industry will be necessary in the future. It is also possible that other inequities, especially in the salary group, may be found as our studies continue.
We hope that our work of this year will meet with your approval.
Respectfully submitted,
GEORGE V. LARKIN, Chairman ELMER C. HOLLIS, Secretary GEORGE BELFORTI FRANCIS COLLINS JOHN DOYLE
Voted. To accept report as read and placed on file.
Report of Milford Police Station Building Committee Mr. Moderator:
I wish to report on the progress made by the Milford Police Station Building Committee.
At the Adjourned Meeting, March 30th, 1960, it was voted that this committee be authorized to secure plans with the assistance of the federal government under Public Law 560. I want to report that
36
after several months of necessary preparation that our application for assistance was granted in accordance with the terms of the federal laws. Congressman Philip J. Philbin and U.S. Senator Leverett Saltonstall aided this cause.
Your building committee has been allotted $5400 for purposes indicated in the application to the Housing and Home Finance Agency located in New York City. The Milford Police Station project No. P-Mass. 3081 was thoroughly investigated and reported to the Director of Community Facilities Activities, Mr. Ralph B. Cornell. This division is in charge of giving federal assistance for the plan- ning of municipal buildings, libraries, school buildings and other projects pertaining to communities.
Your committee felt that plans should be prepared by local people and your attention is hereby called to the general architect's version on the stage of this hall, the original of the picture which was published last night in the Milford Daily News. Careful design- ing and proper use of building materials are stressed in order to give the town of Milford a maximum of facilities. The exterior and roof designs can be altered if desired.
