Report of the Finance Committee


Since the last annual Town Meeting, your Finance Committee has met eight times and will probably have several more meetings before the annual Town Meeting, March 6, 1961.


The total budget requested in 1961 is $38,437.29 high- er than the amount appropriated in 1960. The major budget increases are to be found in the School Depart- ment and in the Charities and Veterans' Benefits. The Finance Committee has studied quite thoroughly the items listed in the budget requests and believes that each expense is justifiable and necessary.


This year the Finance Committee has recommended no increases in salary for the members of the Town Boards and has suggested to the School Committee that the budget request for $3,000.00 for the "Grange Hall" and an amount of $500.00 in the New Equipment account (for new equipment to be used in the Grange Hall) be presented to the Town Meeting in a separate article.


As has been well advertised, Section 40, Chapter 71 of the General Laws, which governs teachers' salaries was amended in 1959, establishing the minimum for teachers' salaries at $4,000.00 and in accordance with this new minimum, the School Committee has considered it neces- sary not only to raise the salaries of the teachers who were receiving compensation below this minimum but


64


also to present a revised salary schedule which raises the salaries of all teachers.


The Finance Committee wishes to remind the Towns- people that our schools have been expanding and that, with the rising costs of supplies and salaries, the cost of educating our children are now approximately 64% of our total budget. Before Town Meeting, you will have received a report from the School Building Needs Com- mittee appointed by the Moderator. It is our hope that you will study this report carefully.


At the time the budget went to press, no bids for gar- bage collection had been received. It is the hope of the Finance Committee that this situation will be corrected prior to the Town Meeting. We have included a figure of $3,000.00 for this service in our budget recommenda- tion.


The Finance Committee recommends the establish- ment of a Stabilization Fund, with an amount of $25,000.00 to be appropriated from available funds. This money can be invested by the Town Treasurer to draw interest which will be added to the Fund. The monies in this fund can be used in the future for capital outlays or major equipment which would be financed for a period of five years or more but only by a two-thirds vote of the annual Town Meeting. We have many needs and it would seem to be an indication of "Yankee thrift" for us to pre- pare for these needs.


Our Fire Chief is presenting to the Town Meeting an article for a new fire truck, the cost of which will not ex- ceed $18,000.00. This article seems to be broad enough for the Fire Chief and the Selectmen to settle their differ- ences and purchase a fire truck which will serve the needs of the town.


For several years we have overlooked the needs of the Highway Department for new equipment. Good equip-


65


ment is necessary to maintain roads, particularly under the conditions which have existed this winter.


The Finance Committee has prepared an estimated tax rate which shows an increase over last year. How- ever, we wish to point our that the figures used are based on the figures used in setting the 1960 tax rate. It is our opinion that we have underestimated reimbursements and receipts and that our figure of $64.28 is a maximum. We recommend that, wherever possible, monies be taken from available funds to defray the cost of equipment.


The budget of the Finance Committee has been in- creased by $50.00. This amount is requested to enable Finance Committee members to attend workshops and conferences so that they may better learn the duties and responsibilities of their office. These workshops are bene- ficial also in learning about similar work in other towns and how these towns meet their problems.


This year an article appears in the annual warrant for a sum of money to tear down the Town Hall, or take any other action thereon. Although this article appears at the request of the Finance Committee, the Committee, itself, has come to no agreement or decision. The de- cision rests with the people at the Town Meeting.


Although the Finance Committee has recommended no increases in the salaries of our town officers, we realize that their duties and responsibilities are ever-increasing. It is probably time for us to examine these duties closely to determine if there are more expedient ways to dis- charge these responsibilitetainly, our officers are not paid salaries commensurate with the hours they spend conducting the business of the town.


The Finance Committee wishes to express its appre- ciation to the various Town Boards for their cooperation


66


during this past year. We wish specifically to thank the Town Accountant for his willingness to help on all Finance Committee matters. However, without the co- operation of all, our work would be more difficult.

Estimated Tax Rate for 1961


This is an estimate of the tax rate and must not be con- sidered a final figure. The tax rate may only be set by the Assessors. The true figures to be used in the final tax setting appear in the Cherry Sheet, which was not available at the time the Annual Report went to press. The estimated receipt figures used in this computation are the figures used in setting the 1960 rate.

Report of Water Commissioners


During 1960 the following routine work was per- formed by the Water Department: 5 renewals of old services; 1 new service, and 17 meters installed. One broken hydrant was repaired.


The most important project by the department in 1960 was the renewal of 48 services along Route 9 from the Northampton line to the end of the Haydenville Company buildings. The work was necessitated by the resurfacing of the highway. The State suggested that all lead con- nections be replaced so that the highway would not be opened after resurfacing.


Besides the 48 services it was necessary to repair all valves along this portion of the water lines. At the end of the main here at the Northampton line, it was neces- sary to lower 60 feet of it so the State cut the embank- ment next to highway. When this was completed the main was extended for 60 feet for two services to a new building. The hydrant in the area was replaced by a new one in a different location.


The main servicing Bridge Street had to be replaced for a distance of 150 feet. A short pieec of main was replaced on Myrtle Street to service a trailer and an existing home.


During the summer some of the brush on the dam at the upper reservoir was cut. The planking on the bridge to the upper reservoir was replaced this fall.


There was sufficient water in our reservoir during 1960 to service the community without pumping from the well. It was necessary to pump on two occasions because heavy


72


rains caused turbidity in the supply. 5,478,800 gallons were pumped. Over 50,000,000 gallons of water flowed through the chlorinator house during the year.


Despite the continuing efforts of the Water Board to collect delinquent accounts through any legal means there are outstanding bills of $2,611.48 owed for water rents and service charges. In the year 1961 definite steps for shutting off the water supply to delinquent customers and/or the attachment of property by means of liens will be executed.

Report of Fire Department


Thirty-eight alarms that called out apparatus were answered during the year : 2 barn, 6 chimney, 3 oil burn- er, 6 house, 15 grass or woodland, 1 vehicle, 1 dump and 4 miscellaneous.


The new Haydenville Station was made ready for use in December. It is much easier to maintain a truck and equipment in a building with adequate room. I wish to thank the Building Committee for their splendid job.


Engine #1 in the Williamsburg Station was purchased in 1937 and is very inadequate as a fire truck to meet present standards. The trend today is towards larger motors and heavier chassis to provide for increased loads over the years.


The Firefighters have put much time and effort into modernizing the Williamsburg Engine House. It should now serve the Town for many years with room for apparatus and a good hall for meetings.


A 5-horsepower siren wa spurchased late in the year, replacing the old 1-horsepower siren that was housed on top of the Town Hall. It was felt, due to the poor condi- tion of the wiring to the Town Hall, that the place for the siren was the Engine House. A new electrical service was installed to meet the required load. Also it is more accessible for maintenance.


I would like to take this opportunity to thank the men of both fire companies for their continued interest and support of the Fire Department.


Respectfully submitted,


HOWARD R. SANDERSON Fire Chief
