REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
To the Citizens of the Town of Andover:
Your Board of Public Works submit their fourth annual report, it being the fourteenth of the Water and sixth of the Sewer Systems for the year ending January 13, 1903.
SEWER DEPARTMENT
No. of sewer connections,
367
Amount expended in 1902,
$2712.48
Cost of Sewers,
$124954.02
Sewer bonds,
$125000.00
Cost of maintenance,
$771.02
Sinking funds,
$46696.78
The 367 connections with the sewer connect 407 buildings, as follows: 350 dwellings, 10 dormitories, 16 business buildings, 9 boarding houses, 4 hotels and eating houses, 2 manufactories, 2 club houses, 1 engine house, 3 public buildings, 3 laundries, 4 school houses, 1 bakery, 1 gymna- sium and 1 church.
1099.55 feet of sewer was laid in Abbot street and in con- nection with that formerly laid completes the line from School to Phillips with the exception of about 350 feet, 348.5 feet on Harding street to connect with the Main street line
The system now comprises 10 3-4 miles, which embraces nearly all of the thickly settled portions of the center and hill districts. There are however a few streets not fully completed and with new ones that will eventually be opened, there will yet be calls for more sewers, but as these requests do not come often, the amount required each year for con- struction purposes will naturally be small.
4
The sewer system has passed the experimental stage and now may well be considered a success.
The disposal of the sewage is the most important factor to be considered in any sewer system and is becoming more serious every year and Andover was exceedingly fortunate that this problem which seemed so hard at first was solved in a manner that was for the best interest of all concerned.
The filter beds are taking care of the sewage with but little trouble and there is no apparent reason to anticipate any until the population of the town is much larger than at present.
With the exception of a few isolated cases (and these will be remedied if possible) no complaint has reached us of any trouble connected with the system during the past year.
WATER SYSTEM

Sinking fund,
$11,581.24
The town at the last annual meeting authorized the issue of additional water bonds to the amount of thirty thousand dollars for construction purposes. There has been sold twenty-eight thousand dollars worth of this amount.
The 10 inch line from the pumping station past the Osgood school house to Ballardvale was completed in Sept- ember. The large amount of ledge and the difficult digging for more than half the way made the work more expensive than was estimated, but the good results obtained, since it was opened, is sufficient evidence of the great benefit to the
5
system and demonstrates the advantages that will be derived in the future by its construction.
This was laid as a force main rather than a supply line yet there are now six water takers on the route.
In this connection it may be of interest to note that for a dozen years the water supply of the town has been de- pendent on one line of pipe for nearly two miles, or from the pond to the West church yet very fortunately, during that number of years there has not been a time when there was not an adequate supply for all purposes.
There has also been laid in River street, Ballardvale, 1145 feet to the last house, a line from the reservoir to the dead end on Salem street, 2500 feet, giving the people in that section better service. 1384 feet in Haverhill street, Frye Village to the house of George Mander, 468 feet in Porter street, which makes through line from Salem to Main street, and 451 feet in Avon street; the remainder to Chestnut street will be completed next season.
With the above additions there are now 29.69 miles of street mains and 215 hydrants.
As it is the duty of this board to care for and direct the different sewer and water sinking funds, Mr. John W. Bell was elected treasurer of them and assumed his duties April 1st. A statement of the condition and investments accom- pany this report.
The new water rates that have been in use during the year appear to be giving general satisfaction. It certainly is easier for many to pay quarterly and we think this change is appreciated and though it requires more clerical work the result of this manner of collecting is very gratifying. There was due for water to Jan. 1st $7.50 which amount will be collected, when the water is turned on again.
A telemeter was installed late in the season and thus far is working all right. This is an ingenious piece of mechan- ism by which the height of water in the reservoir is recorded
6
on a dial in the office of the board every hour in the day and night.
Should this continue to work correctly, and it has in other towns, it will save a daily trip, and sometimes oftener to the reservoir to ascertain the amount of water it contains which is necessary at all times to know.
Pine street, the new one laid out and constructed last year, from Elm to Summer is without water and it would seem to be the proper thing to lay pipe there the coming season. If laid it would not only accommodate quite a number of citizens who want it, but it would improve the system in that locality by thus securing better circulation.
It will require $7520 for general expense next year and your board asks that this amount be appropriated for that purpose.
Very respectfully,
JOHN L. SMITH LEWIS T. HARDY JOHN W. BELL JAMES C. SAWYER FELIX G. HAYNES
