Report of the Planning Board
FOR THE YEAR 1944
To the Citizens of Braintee :
The Board has been concerned principally during the past year with making plans for the post-war period. It is represented on the Town Committee for Postwar Planning, which is considering all town projects proposed for development with Federal, State, and Town Funds immediately at the close of hostilities.
NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS
Considerable study has been given to the problem of providing small neighborhood playgrounds to serve builtup areas not now within one- half mile of existing parks. Five areas have need for such facilities and locations are in the process of being selected as follows: (1) Between South Braintree Square and the Highlands district, (2) In tht vicinity of Five Corners, (3) To the west of Braintree Square, (4) In the vicinity of Braintree Heights, and (5) North of Elm Street and east of Haw- thorne Road. Tax title lands in these areas are being investigated and as time permits the Town Engineer is conducting surveys of selected plots. Efforts are being made to have certain public spirited citizens offer selected parcels of land to the Town for park purposes.
AIRPARK
Serious thought has been given to plans for a small airport for the town. A preliminary survey has been completed and a report prepared for consideration by the Board. Subsurface investigations are being made in the proposed area and information regarding the assessment's in the section are in preparation for further study.
MISCELLANEOUS ACTIVITIES
The Board has been in touch with the State Planning Board mak- ing certain that the Elm Street Crossing Elimination is included in its list of important post-war projects.
Correspondence has been carried on with the Senior Senator from Massachusetts regarding a new post-office for Braintree with particular reference to procedures to be followed in assuring the selection of a good site.
It has been proposed that consideration be given to the idea of hav- ing the Town provide a small hospital to care for its returning wounded veterans and it has been requested that an article be included in the Town Meeting" Warrant empowering the Selectmen to appoint a com- mittee to study this matter and report its findings and recommendations.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The Planning Board wishes to take this occasion to acknowledge its appreciation for the excellent contributions made to its activities by Frank L. Heaney. He has been a most active member of the Board for over six years serving as Secretary during much of this time. He entered the armed services during the summer of 1944 and will be absent for the duration.

Once again the Board desires to express its appreciation for the continued cooperation extended by its ex-officio member, Mr. John J. Drinkwater, Jf., Town Engineer. He has been helpful in many ways and has opened his offices to the Board as a meeting place.
INVITATION
As ever, the Board solicit's the suggestions of interested citizens concerning desirable and needed improvements in our town. Any mem- ber of the Board will be pleased to receive such suggestions.
Respectfully Submitted ,
