Board of Assessors
Board of Selectmen
Town Hall Braintree, Mass.
Gentlemen :-
We herewith submit our Annual Report for the year 1954.
The assessable property, both real and personal, con- tinues to show a healthy growth. Real estate valuations having increased from $41,559,950.00 in 1953 to $42,- 840,000.00 in 1954. Personal property valuation in- creased from $1,653,815.00 in 1953 to $1,782,185.00 in 1954. The Motor Vehicle excise valuations continue to show substantial increases, at the present time running over $5,000,000.00 in valuation on some 11,000 automo- biles registered in Braintree during 1954.
Mrs. Olive Bean, who has been Chief Clerk in the Assessors' office for the past 26 years, retired in April, and Miss Elizabeth Ryan resigned to take a position in Boston. Both of these women were very capable and conscientious employes and they certainly were sorely missed in the functioning of the office this year. Miss Georgianna McGinnis was promoted to Chief Clerk, and the two new girls in the office are Mrs. Virginia Prince and Mrs. Alice Beck.
It was pleasing to announce a reduction of $3.80 in the tax rate for 1954. Under the watchful eye of our Finance Committee and the complete cooperation of all elected officials and department heads, let's hope that this trend may continue.
Signed : The Braintree Board of Assessors NORRIS H. PINAULT, Chairman CHESTER W. NELSON, Clerk ARTHUR E. BOYNTON
