Central Merrimack Valley Planning District


The first phases of the work in the federally-assisted, two- year planning program initiated during 1960 were accomplished during 1961, and the results were published in the form of reports to the Commission by its consultants, The Planning Services Group.


The first report, entitled "Development Trends in the Central Merrimack Valley" provides a synthesis of information regarding the population, land use, and economic patterns in the four - community region, including analysis of recent trends and fore - seeable developments.


This report was completed in May and formally presented at a joint meeting of the local Planning Boards of the four communities, representatives of the Greater Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, and the Greater Lawrence Industrial Development Commission.


The second major report, entitled "Land for Industry", was published in October and presented at a well-attended luncheon meeting sponsored by the Greater Lawrence Chamber of Commerce. In summary, this industrial report:


1. Analyzes and ranks each major potential industrial site in the area in terms of its value for industrial use.


2. Analyzes and ranks each major category of manufacturing in terms of its growth prospects in the Greater Lawrence area.


The Planning Services Group also prepared brief reports with recommendations on three specific items of regional concern:


1. The projected regional vocational school


2. The proposed regional incinerator


3. The Future use of Den Rock Park


Two additional major reports, one concerning transportation and one concerning natural resources and community facilities will be completed in 1962.


The Commission accepted with regret the resignation of its first Chairman, Mr. Edward Force of Methuen. Mr. Donald A. Dow, appointed to fill the vacancy, is presently serving as Chairman. Mr. James Bannan, one of the original members of the Commission, was reappointed by North Andover to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Mr. Robert Burke.

Salary Study Committee Report


At the adjourned Town Meeting of March 22, 1961, it was "VOTED that the Moderator be instructed to appoint a committee to study the matter of salaries and expenses for elected and/or appointed officials, and to report to the next ANNUAL TOWN MEETING. "


Under the Town Manager Charter, all remuneration and expenses of appointed Town Officials, Board Members, and employees is under the sole jurisdiction of the Town Manager, except the members of the Housing Authority who have their salaries authorized under Chapter 121, Section 260, of the General Laws - 2% of gross income, as amended, less subsidies. The Secretary of the Retirement Board is covered under Chapter 32, Section 20 - 4a, of the General Laws - minimum $200.00, and not more than $500.00.


We recommend the following salary and expenses for elected Town Officials:


Budget


a) Moderator -$25, 00 per meeting $100.00


b) Selectmen -Chairman-$500. 00 per year


-4 Members-$400. 00 per year 2100. 00 - Travel, including out of State 150.00


- Dues and memberships 100.00 None


c) School Committee -None


$2450. 00


By tradition, Massachusetts School Boards have never been paid a salary. The above salaries are the same as these paid in 1960, none were paid in 1961. Their payment should be considered an honorarium, a service to the Town on which a modest stipend has been set.


This Committee wishes to thank the Secretary to the Town Manager for her very efficient cooperation in the compiling of data for our study.


Respectfully submitted,


George B. Westhaver, Chairman Norman L. Miller, Secretary Kenneth E. Holmes William H. Rhoads Fred Saunders

Report Of The Director Of Accounts


1


May 23, 1961


To the Board of Selectmen Mr. Eugene A. Bernardin, Jr., Chairman Andover, Massachusetts


Gentlemen:


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the Town of Andover for the fiscal year 1960, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. William Schwartz, Assistant Director of Ac- counts.


Very truly yours, HERMAN B. DINE Director of Accounts


Mr. Herman B. Dine Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation State House, Boston


Sir:


In accordance with your instructions, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the Town of Andover for the fiscal year 1960, and report thereon as follows:


The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or committing bills for collection, were examined, checked and verified by comparison with the records in the offices of the town accountant and the town treasurer.


142


The books and accounts in the town accountant's office were examined and checked. The general and appropria- tion ledger accounts were analyzed. The recorded re- ceipts and payments were checked with the treasurer's books and with the departmental records of payments to the treasurer, while the appropriations, transfers, and loan authorizations, as entered, were checked with the town clerk's records of town meeting votes and with the finance committee's records of transfers authorized from the reserve fund.


The necessary adjusting entries resulting from the audit were made and a balance sheet, showing the financial con- dition of the town as of December 31, 1960, was prepared and is appended to this report.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were exam- ined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were analyzed and compared with the town accountant's records, with the records in the several departments in which money was collected for the town, and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury. The payments, as recorded, were checked with the warrants authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds and with the town accountant's records .


The cash balance on January 21, 1961 was proved by recon- ciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit, by examination of the savings bank book, the certificates of deposit, and the safekeep- ing receipts for treasury bills, and by actual count of the cash in the office.


The payments on account of maturing debt and interest were verified by comparison with the amounts falling due and checked with the cancelled securities and coupons on file. The amount on deposit for matured coupons was reconciled with a statement furnished by the depository.


The records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were examined and listed, and all transactions pertaining thereto were verified, including a comparison with the records at the Registry of Deeds.


The savings bank books and securities, representing the investment of the trust, investment and contributory retirement funds in the custody of the town treasurer and the treasurers of the trustees of the John Cornell Fund, the Punchard Free School Fund and the Memorial Hall Library Fund, were examined and listed. The income


143


was proved, and the disbursements and transfers to the town were verified.


The deductions from employees' salaries for Federal and State taxes, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, group life in- surance, purchase of savings bonds, and for the United Fund were listed and checked with the treasurer's re- ceipts. The payments to the proper agencies and the refunds to individuals were verified, while the balances in the general treasury on December 31, 1960 were proved.


The assessors' records of abatements granted were recon- ciled with the collector's books and with the accountant's ledger. The assessors' warrants for the commitment of taxes, excise, and assessments were examined and checked with the detailed lists. The records of assessments apportioned and suspended were examined, while the appor- tioned and suspended assessments not due were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger accounts.


The books and accounts of the tax collector were examined and checked. The taxes, excise, special assessments, and water liens outstanding according to the previous examination, as well as all subsequent commitments, were audited and checked with the assessors' warrants issued for their collection. The payments to the treasurer were verified, the recorded abatements were compared with the assessors' records of abatements granted, the transfers to the tax title account were proved, and the outstanding amounts were listed and reconciled with the respective controlling ledger accounts.


It was again necessary to do a considerable amount of detailed checking in order to prove the tax accounts.


It is recommended that a prompt settlement be obtained of the delinquent tax and excise accounts.


The books and accounts of the collector of water charges were examined and checked in detail. The commitments were verified, the recorded collections were checked with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements were compared with the departmental records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.


The outstanding tax, excise, assessment, departmental and water accounts were further verified by mailing notices to a large number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies


144


-

received thereto indicating that the outstanding ac- counts, as listed, are correct.


The records of dog, sporting, and town licenses issued, as well as of miscellaneous permits and fees collected by the town clerk, were examined and checked, and the recorded payments to the State and to the town treasurer were verified.


The records of departmental accounts receivable and mis- cellaneous receipts of the sealer of weights and meas- ures, and the inspectors of buildings, wires and plumb- ing, as well as of the police, fire, health, public works, school, library, and cemetery departments, and of all other departments collecting money for the town or committing bills for collection, were examined and checked. The payments to the treasurer were verified, the outstanding accounts were listed and proved, and the cash balances were verified by actual count of the cash on hand in the several departments.


The surety bonds furnished by the several town officials for the faithful performance of their duties were exam- ined and found to be in proper form.


In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing reconciliations of the treas - urer's, tax collector's, and town clerk's cash, summar- ies of the tax, excise, assessment, tax title, tax possession, departmental, and water accounts, as well as schedules showing the condition and transactions of the several trust, investment, and retirement funds.


While engaged in making the audit cooperation was re- ceived from all town officials, for which, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, I wish to express ap- preciation.


Respectfully submitted,


WILLIAM SCHWARTZ Assistant Director of Accounts
