REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
To the Citizens of the Town of Andover, Mass .:
We submit our fourteenth annual report for the year ending December 31, 1926, which is also the thirty-eighth report of the Water System, and the thirtieth report of the Sewer System. This is also the fourteenth report of the Highway and Park De- partments under the jurisdiction of the Board of Public Works.
ELECTION
The choice of the voters resulted in the re-election of Walter I. Morse for a period of three years.
ORGANIZATION
At the first meeting held on March 18, the following were elected: Chairman, Arthur T. Boutwell; Secretary, William D. McIntyre; Treasurer, Walter I. Morse.
Mr. Frank L. Cole was re-appointed superintendent for one year at a salary of $3800.00.
WATER DEPARTMENT
In accordance with the vote at the last Town meeting, there were added to your Water System 7,724 feet of new mains at an average cost of $2.45 per foot. This included the relaying of a new 6-inch main on Upland Road from Summer Street to Chest- nut Street, relaying a new 6-inch main on Walnut Avenue from Carmel Road to Elm Street, laying 8-inch and 10-inch pipe on Lowell Street, from the Pumping Station a distance of about 3400 feet toward Haggett's Pond Road. These changes were in line with the Board's plans to improve the Water System each
3
year in accordance with the survey made two years ago by Weston & Sampson, Engineers.
We would recommend for the betterment of the Water System this year, the following :
The replacing of 4-inch pipe on Florence Street by 6-inch.
The replacing of 4-inch pipe on Washington Avenue by 6-inch.
We would recommend these changes because the present lines · are carrying a dangerously small capacity. We believe this should be corrected to satisfy not only a better service capacity, but also to insure maximum fire protection in this congested area. We would also ask that the main on Lowell Street started last year be extended from where it now terminates, to the Tewksbury line, a distance of about 4600 feet. In this extension, it would seem the Town was using the right judgment in laying a convenience to attract future development, bearing in mind the excellent road that adds another valuable inducement. You will find inserted in the warrant an article covering this extension, and changes involving an amount of $15,000. The general operating forces of the Water System are relatively in as good working condition as can be expected considering their period of service.
PUMPING STATION
In the passing of Mr. George Spickler, who so faithfully and conscientiously served the Town for thirty-four years in the capacity of engineer at the Pumping Station, we believe it our duty to recall to your mind his years of loyalty to this public service. The vacancy caused by Mr. Spickler's passing, has been filled by Mr. Howard Pillsbury, whose service we feel the Town has been fortunate to employ. His general knowledge of the working of the plant has shown itself, not only in the improved appearance of the station, but the more efficient operation of the plant.
The dwelling house at the Pumping Station has been renovated, the grounds regraded and seeded, trees planted, and the swamp at the right of the Pumping Station filled in. It is the desire of the Board to keep this holding of the Town's in a much more attractive appearance than in the past.
4
We would recommend the sum of $30,000. for maintenance of the Water Department and $10,000. for service pipe and con- struction for the ensuing year. These amounts are the same as last year, and are necessary to maintain this part of your service.
WATER BONDED DEBT
The Bonded Debt of the Water System, January 1, 1927, was $68,000 .; of this amount $5,000. is redeemable by the sinking fund, which on January 1, 1927, amounted to $5,834.61. From the balance shown on the sinking fund, you can see it is no longer necessary to ask for appropriations for this fund.
SEWER DEPARTMENT
No new construction was undertaken during the year 1926. The expense of this department now is chiefly its maintenance, and we would accordingly ask for an appropriation of $5,000. for this work this year.
SEWER BONDED DEBT
The Bonded Debt of the Sewer System, January 1, 1927, was $213,000 .; of this amount $30,000. is redeemable by the sinking fund, which on January 1, 1927, amounted to $29,458.53. It is no longer necessary to ask for appropriations for this fund, since the interest on the amount on deposit will meet the sum required when due.
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT
CONSTRUCTION
There were rebuilt this year the following streets :
Part of Shawsheen Road.
Chestnut Street to Avon Street.
Part of Abbot Street.
Summer Street to the residence of Symonds.
Stevens Street in whole.
Pasho Street in whole.
This work involved 19,778 yards of new construction, and was built at an average cost of $1.73 1-3 yard, which reflects a credit- able showing to our Superintendent and his organization. We
5
also take pride in saying that it is one of the few years that the Board has been able to follow its recommendations to their completion.
The Board proposes for new construction for the ensuing year, the following :
Chestnut Street from Avon Street to Upland Road.
Harding Street.
The Street in rear of the Railroad Station.
High Street from Harding Street to North Andover line. Chestnut Street should be reconstructed because of its unsatis- factory condition. The street in rear of R. R. Station has been a bone of contention for many years, and has not only been in a very unsatisfactory condition, but it has given Andover's ap- proach by railroad a very undignified appearance. Harding Street has drawn heavily from our maintenance account each year, due to severe washouts, and we believe its reconstruction an act of investment to the Town. High Street to the North Andover line should be rebuilt to afford a diversion of the travel from Main Street to Lawrence.
An unsuccessful attempt was made by the Board to enlist State and County aid in the reconstruction of the River Road from South Lawrence to Tewksbury. We believe if this road was put in a more satisfactory condition it would greatly relieve some of the travel to Lowell, thereby furnishing a better distribution of Andover's intertravel. Also we think it a good policy to enlist as much aid from the State and County as possible in the rebuild- ing of our roads.
MAINTENANCE
This department is called upon not only to care for the country roads, but to maintain by resealing the many streets that have been previously constructed. In the rural districts gravel and ashes have been used in considerable quantities to place these thoroughfares in a more passable condition. Many miles of gravel roads have been oiled and treated with asphalt and tarvia. This procedure has added greatly to their life as well as placed them in a much more desirable condition for spring and fall
6
travel. There is also incorporated in this department sidewalk work, bridge repair, catchbasins, drains and street signs - all necessary to the general upkeep of the Town's highways. Several drains were built this year including the one on Bartlet Street near the High School. We think this has relieved this area from a great nuisance. We plan to scarify and dress many country roads this year which we have found to be in a poor condition.
We would ask that $78,000. be appropriated for Construction and Maintenance purposes.
SNOW
The plowing and removing of snow has been a problem almost every community has had to solve. If you will consider that Andover has to open for travel 129 miles of streets after each storm, bearing in mind that the greatest attention must be given to Main Street from the North Reading line to the Lawrence line, I think you will agree that the snow removal problem has worked out a little better this year than heretofore. We are endeavoring to place this class of service on as high a level as possible, and you can be assured that every effort is made to get the streets open for travel just as soon as possible. Many times difficulties confront the progress of this work due to the breaking down of equipment and other unfortunate causes beyond our control. We have placed in various sections of the Town snow fences where the drifting of snow has been a menace to the plowing of the roads by trucks. This we have found has worked out to a great saving to the Town, and hope next year to purchase a greater amount of it for distribution in localities where it is needed.
We would recommend $15,000. for snow and equipment.
PARK DEPARTMENT
We would recommend the sum of $3,000. for this department, the same amount as appropriated last year. We feel in asking this amount, that it is no more than will adequately care for your Park System properly. We have caused to be placed in the warrant, an article for $15,000. for the purpose of completing the
7
playstead according to the recommendations of the engineers employed for this work. We submit the progress of their work together with recommendations as follows:
MORSE & DICKINSON ENGINEERS 11 Beacon St.
Boston, Mass., December 3, 1926.
Board of Public Works Andover, Mass.
GENTLEMEN :
In accordance with your request we submit herewith our report of the work which has been done under our direction on the Andover playstead together with an estimate of work remaining to be done in order to put the entire area in a condition whereby it may be enjoyed by lovers of outdoor sports.
The area of the playstead tract at present is approximately 7 acres and the straightening of the boundary lines at the easterly corner will add nearly another acre to this area.
Prior to the work of this season less than half of the field was available for sports, the balance being undrained land, over- grown with water grasses and bushes of various kinds.
After examining the premises your engineers made a careful survey from which a complete topographical map was prepared. Studies were made of the soil in order to determine its composi- tion and the uses for which it was adapted.
Numerous test holes were sunk to ascertain the depths and formation of the sub stratum and also to secure data for deter- mining the location and extent of the necessary underground drains.
With this information a drainage system was designed to pro- vide for surface as well as ground water and a grading plan worked up which would permit the use of the desired contour at a min- imum of expense.
Specifications and form of contract were also prepared as it was expected at first that the work would be done by contract. It was later decided, however, by your board to handle the
8
construction with your own forces and the work therefore was conducted in this manner. Credit is due your Superintendent, Mr. Frank Cole, for his efficient and economical management.
The work progressed from July until October at which time the limit of the appropriation was reached and it was then necessary to suspend operations.
While the grading of the entire field at present is incomplete, more work has actually been done than was originally con- templated. During the progress of the work it was pointed out by your engineers that if the general scheme of improvement was followed and the whole field graded and seeded at this time it would be necessary later to remove large areas of loam and grass in order to construct the running track, baseball field, tennis courts, etc. It was therefore decided by your board to make these several units integral with the grading operation and thereby save a considerable item of expense.
A quarter-mile cinder track has been laid out on the westerly tide of the field and has already been partly constructed. The two large bleachers, each with a seating capacity of about 500 persons, have been moved from their former locations and grouped beside the track.
The entire drainage system has been installed and about three quarters of the surface area of the field has been graded.
The records show that there has been expended for the work the total of $14967.40 of which $9070.01 was for labor, teams and trucks, $4547.39 for materials such as cinders, gravel, and pipe, and $1350 for surveys, designs and engineering services.
To complete the work which has already been undertaken additional funds will be needed, and in order that the townspeople may obtain variety in their recreation and also realize on their initial playground investment, your attention is respectfully called to the desirability of constructing, in addition to the running track and football field, a baseball field with bleachers of adequate seating capacity together with tennis courts or other playground units of such extent as your board believes advisable.
With the development of the field it is felt that consideration should be given at this time to a suitable approach. Entrance
9
now is possible only through Whittier Court, a narrow way border- ing on private door yards and of a width sufficient to permit the passage of only one vehicle at a time. An extensive ledge outcrop in the vicinity precludes its widening. It is therefore suggested that a new approach be constructed across the schoolhouse grounds entering from Whittier Street at a point about 100 feet westerly from Whittier Court. A gravel surfaced driveway 20 feet in width would be sufficient and the grounds between the Jackson and Punchard school buildings would afford ample parking facilities for automobiles.
An estimate of the cost of completing the playstead on the above basis is as follows:
1. Additional grading of field $2800.00
2. Loaming, fertilizing and seeding 6450.00
3. Completion of running track 750.00
4. Construction of baseball field 200.00
5. Bleachers at baseball field, seating capacity 500 persons 1000.00
6. Two tennis courts with woven wire enclosure 2500.00
7. Concrete piers for present bleachers · 300.00
8. Construction of new approach to playstead 475.00
$14475.00
Engineering 10%
1447.00
$15922.00
Yours respectfully,
MORSE & DICKINSON (signed) D. H. DICKINSON
We believe if this report is followed in detail, Andover's play- stead will become of greater service to its young people.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
To the Board of Public Works.
GENTLEMEN :
I herewith submit my reports of the different departments for the year ending December 31st, 1926.
WATER DEPARTMENT
During the year 1926 there were added to our main pipe lines 4015 feet of 6-inch C. I. pipe, 2342 feet of 8-inch C. I. pipe and 1314 feet of 10-inch C. I. pipe, also 14 hydrants and 31 water gates. Forty-nine service pipes have been laid and 48 meters set. The total miles of main water pipe and number of hydrants, meters and services in use will be found in a table at the back of the book.
We have pumped at Haggett's Pond, using both steam and electric plants, 333,352,823 gallons (about 10,000,000 less than in 1925). The steam plant was in operation 4308 hours, and the electric plant 633 hours and 30 minutes, making a total of 4941 hours and 30 minutes, or a daily average of 13 hours and 32 minutes. On October 25th, 1,293,511 gallons were pumped, this being the greatest amount pumped in any one day. The electric pump on Bancroft Road, continues to give excellent results and is in operation about 35 to 40 hours per week.
The Engineer's house has been repaired and grounds around same have been loamed and seeded which has greatly improved its appearance. During the last year one-half of the swamp near the Pumping Station has been filled in, and it is hoped that during the coming year the remaining portion can be taken care of.
12
I would recommend for maintenance for 1927 $30,000.00 (same as last year) to be divided as follows :
Salaries and labor
$16000.00
300 tons of coal
3000.00
Engine and cylinder oil
600.00
Power No. 1 and No. 2 stations
6000.00
Horse and 2 cars
1200.00
Steam Plant and Boiler
1000.00
Grading and seeding land
1500.00
Miscellaneous
700.00
Total
$30000.00
SERVICE PIPE AND CONSTRUCTION
The number of applications in 1926 was 50, making a total of 2268.
Services in use January 1, 1926, 2088; put in during 1926, 49, making a total of 2137 in use January 1, 1927.
Meters in use January 1, 1926, 1963; meters set during 1926, 48, making a total of 2011 in use January 1, 1927.
During the year there were 1853 feet of service pipe laid on private property and 1468 feet on Town property.
I would recommend for construction for 1927 the sum of $10,000.00 (the same as last year) to be divided as follows:
Labor and salaries
50 Meters
$6000.00 600.00
Pipe
1000.00
Brass Goods
1000.00
Repairing old pipe
1000.00
Miscellaneous
400.00
$10000.00
SPECIAL WORK
I would recommend the following :
That the work of laying the water main on Lowell Street be completed.
That the present 4-inch main on Washington Avenue be re- placed with a 6-inch main.
13
That the present 4 inch main on Florence Street be replaced with a 6-inch main.
The above work would require 2200 feet of 8-inch pipe and 3800 feet of 6-inch pipe, as well as the changing over of all service pipes on the above mentioned streets. The total cost of these recommendations would approximate $15,000.00.

SEWER DEPARTMENT
I would recommend for sewer maintenance for 1927, $5,000.00.
The sewer system has given very little trouble during the past year. It was necessary to repair only seven leaks which is a very small amount considering the number of miles of pipe.
