ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF SCHOOL HEATING SYSTEM COMMITTEE


As Chairman of the Heating Committee I herewith submit a report of the work done by the committee.


The contract was awarded to the firm of Babbitt & Simmons of Taunton who was the lowest of all bidders, both sub contract and full contract. The bidding was called for on specifications drawn up by Mr. Carl W. Larson, Registered Engineer of Boston. The work was completed March 12, 1952 upon notice from the contractor. On March 28th the committee met at the school with Mr. Larson who explained the system in full to us and gave his final approval for the work done and the carrying out of the contract by the heating contractor. On May 13th the final bill of the contractor was signed and delivered to the treasurer for payment.


We feel that the school has a very good system and shows a marked improvement over the old method of heating the building. We trust that we have served the Town in its best interest and feel that we have carried out to the best of our ability the work that was assigned to us.


Respectfully submitted, JOHN P. PILLING Co-chairman

We have assisted the Registry on Periodic Inspection check- ups. We patrolled the Town on the Fouth of July, Labor day, Halloween, and New Year's. During Dog Racing period, Police Officers directed traffic at various intersections for a period of 100 days.


We have been informed by Mr. Callahan, Commissioner of the Dept. of Public Works, that the hazards existing at the inter- section of Routes 79 and 140 warrant the installation of a flash- ing beacon. But, owing to the lack of funds, it will be necessary to postpone action on this matter until after Jan. 15, 1953, when funds will be available from the new bond issue.


The Berkley Police Association has added to our signs in various locations for greater protection of the children.


I have taken great pleasure in serving you as Chief of Police and I hope I have been worthy of my appointment.


I thank you and the Police Officers for your excellent co-op- eration in carrying out the work of the department.

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT


To: The Board of Selectmen:


Town of Berkley


Gentlemen:


As your Chief of the Fire Department, I submit the follow- ing report for the year of 1952.


Having been appointed as your Chief of the Fire Department on the 20th day of March, 1952, an inspection of the Fire De- partment equipment was made, the fire truck was in fair condi- tion, the high pressure motor pump was in poor condition and could not be started, it was sent out for repairs and has been in proper working order since. The marine water pump was also completely overhauled and is in good order.


Six hundred feet of fire hose was found to be from fair to poor condition, 300 feet of new hose was purchased. A total of 14 water spray cans were located, 8 of them were in good order, 9 new cans were purchased.


The Town Police Association donated to the Fire Depart- ment for use on the fire truck, a battery power spot light, 14 call firemen were appointed as deputy fire wardens and they are located as follows: 2 Myricks, 2 Bayview, 2 North Berkley St., 2 South Berkley St., 2 Berkley Common, 1 Jerome St., 1 Locust St., 2 assigned as engineers on the fire truck, 1 Deputy on Berkley St. and 1 Deputy in Myricks were assigned the task of issuing fire permits.


There were 27 grass and brush fires, 4 house fires, 1 auto fire, and 1 outside call for assistance.


On April 1st the fire extinguishers were inspected at the Berkley School, and also in April the grounds on Berkley Com- mon and the front of Myricks School were burned over.


During the months of April and May the fire truck with two Deputies was sent to any home owners residence that requested it in Berkley to burn off lawns and gardens at no cost for the truck, the property owner paying the Deputy hourly wages.


The Town was fortunate as to the amount of damage and cost caused by forest and grass fires in comparison to some of our neighboring towns, as the months of July, August and September


30


ANNUAL REPORT


were very dry, and I do feel due to fine co-operation of the resi- dents of the towns, and the prompt action of the Fire Depart- ment getting to the scene of the fire held the loss and the cost to a minimum.


I wish to express my appreciation to the Deputy Fire Ward- ens, Police Dept., and others who have co-operated in any way in carrying out the duties of this office.


Respectfully submitted, GARLAND TEMPLETON


REPORT OF THE WELL COMMITTEE


Herewith is submitted our report as Well Committee for the Town of Berkley:


The Committee held nine meetings during the past year relative to obtaining a larger source of water for use in the Berk- ley School building. This committee requested permission from the Townspeople at one special Town Meeting for a sum of money for exploratory work on the school grounds and the Common only. The Committee now realizes, after several tests on the Common, that it should also have requested permission to look into the possibility of locating a supply of water on adjacent private property.


First, it was estimated that a minimum yield of 20,000 gals. of water per day, would be sufficient water for school purposes. Then the present school well was tested and found to have a maximum yield of only 3,300 gals. per day.


Pipe and well points were purchased and three wells were driven on the Common but due to underground formation it was impossible to pump water.


Caisson Wells, Inc., of New York made a field reconnaissance of the School area and adjacent property and would guarantee the capacity sought by means of a Caisson Well. To install this well at the rate of $160.00 per foot of well below ground, to a minimum depth of 20 feet.


31


ANNUAL REPORT


R. E. Chapman Co. of Oakdale, Mass., would guarantee the yield of their type of well for the approximate cost of $1,600.00 only after driving test wells at the rate of $2.75 per foot, costs of test wells to be borne by Town.


Bourdon & Warren of Fairhaven, Mass., would construct a stonewell backed with crushed stone and finished with concrete well pipe for an estimated sum of $600.00.


The agent of an adjacent property owner offered the sale of water to the Berkley School, providing that the Town purchase all necessary pumping equipment and defray the cost of installa- tion. Another adjacent property owner, has offered to give per- mission for the town to make test borings on his property and if tests prove satisfactory will be willing to make a reasonable agreement with the Town.


The Committee hopes to have additional figures and inform- ation by the next annual town meeting.


It is the recommendation of this committee that authorization be granted to take whatever action is deemed necessary to procure a suitable water bearing area. The present well should not be disturbed or altered in any way. And it is the recommendation that a shallow well be constructed because of its lesser cost and higher yield of water.


The Well Committee is extremely grateful to the town officials for their cooperation and to the townspeople for their willingness to assist.

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF LIBRARY COMMITTEE


During the past two years the Library Committee has been endeavoring to rebuild the reference library which has become obsolete since it was first established. This is a slow and some- what discouraging task as the price of books is high, the demand for light fiction is great and the Library appropriation is low.


We have been the recipients of additions to the Library from generous donors, notably a series of the Book of Knowledge from a family formerly resident in Berkley and an Americana Encyclo- pedia from a Library which was putting a newer edition on its shelves. It is heartening to know there are those whose interest in small Libraries leads to gifts such as these.


The insurance on the Library building and contents has been increased and has been divided so that an equal amount is due each year. This eliminates the necessity of appropriating an addi- tional sum every three years for this purpose.


We would like to remind the residents of Berkley that they may avail themselves of the facilities of the Memorial Hall in the basement of the Library building. This hall may be rented for a nominal sum by any person or group desiring to do so. The hall was finished and furnished in 1920 by the Soldiers' Monument Association and was given to the town for recreation purposes as a Memorial to soldiers of earlier wars.


Respectfully submitted.

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF HIGHWAY SURVEYOR


I respectfully submit the following report for 1952:


This past year considerable time was spent on widening over one half mile of Myricks Street, also a short piece on Elm Street. Both Myricks and Elm Streets will be surfaced with three inches of black top and completed this year. Approximately seven miles of road were oiled, and ten miles of brush were cut on the road sides. The brush cut this year was mainly on the roads carrying the heaviest traffic, namely: Berkley, No. Main and Bay View Avenue. This year it is my intention to cut the brush on the secondary and gravel roads.


Many people are of the opinion that the Highway Surveyor can spend appropriations when and where he sees fit. This is not the case at all. The State has a District Engineer who is in charge of this area and he is the one who decides which roads to build or gravel or oil, also the type of materials to be used. The Select- men and the Highway Surveyor can recommend to the State a suit- able project, as was done with Elm Street this year, but the de- cision lies with the State to accept or reject them.

Highway Surveyor
