In March, after approval at the town meeting, the waste collections were transferred to the highway department. There are three reg- ular men on waste collections but because of increased collections are unable to keep up with the various routes. The regular high- way men and equipment have assisted in the collections when needed. The cost of labor of the highway men assisting on waste collections was $3,654.60. Also, when a holiday falls during the week, collec- tions are picked up the following day plus the regularly scheduled collections instead of waiting until the following week.
The usual patching, brush cutting and cleaning of catch basins was done.
The power sweeper broom was hired again this year and all the streets were swept.
At this time I would like to thank the townspeople for their kind consideration and co-operation and the Police Department for noti- fying the department of dangerous conditions on the roads during the winter months.
Respectfully submitted, Frederick R. Greenwood Supt. of Streets

ANNUAL TOWN REPORT
REPORT OF THE PLANNING BOARD
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and
The Citizens of the Town of Chelmsford:
The Planning Board was organized for the year 1956 with Harold E. Clayton, Jr. as Chairman, Carl A. E. Peterson, Clerk, and with George S. Archer, George R. Dupee, Charles D. Harrington, Claude J. Harvey, and Harold J. Pearson as members. For secretarial work the Board engaged the services of Dorothy J. Lewis.
The Board held 21 meetings during the year. There were 16 hearings on Subdivisions, of which 12 were approved, and 4 were disapproved.
The Board held a Legal Hearing on the Change in the Zoning By-Law and held three informal hearings prior to the Legal Hear- ing. Also, the Town Planner engaged by the Board, Mr. Nord W. Davis, held several informal discussions in addition to the hearings.
At a Special Town Meeting, held June 11, 1956, the Town voted a drastic change in its Zoning Zy-Law, by substituting a New By- Law in place of the old By-Law. This change was voted after more than one.year of deliberation by the Planning Board, which was guided in its recommendations by the Town Planner. As the vote was overwhelmingly in favor of the change, 398 in favor, and 98 against, the Board believes that the people recognized the need for a revision of its Zoning By-laws.
The Board realizes that this new by-law is not static, and is cog- nizant that changes will need to be made to meet new thoughts and conditions. However, the Board believes that the community has more and better protection under the new by-law than under the old.
The Planning Board holds its Regular Meetings in its quarters at the Centre Town Hall on the third Friday evening of each month. It welcomes the ideas of the citizens of the community in its efforts to provide better planning for the community.

REPORT OF THE NORTH CHELMSFORD FIREHOUSE BUILDING COMMITTEE
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen
The North Chelmsford Firehouse Committee, Bernard F. MeGovern, Chairman; Roger P. Welch, Secretary; Richard B. Carr, John J. Dunigan, Fire Chief Allan Kidder, Vinson C. Reid and Harry L. Shedd, Jr. submits a report of progress as follows:
Construction of the new fire station at North Chelmsford was begun in August of 1956. A considerable delay was encountered when it was necessary to call for bids on three different occasions in order to come within the funds appropriated by the voters at the Town Meeting. On the third call for bids, the lowest bid submitted was still some $5,000.00 over the amount appropriated; but, by re- advertising for new bids on electrical, roofing. landscaping and hot topping bids, the committee finally was able to award the contract to W. W. Granger Co.
The building was substantially completed and occupied on De- comber 30, 1956. Because of contingent expenses incurred in the installation for footings and drainage, it was impossible to furnish the building in the manner the committee had planned. The Fire- men's Relief Association from North Chelmsford has supplied some of the furnishings and equipment needed and the Committee wishes to express its thanks for their help. While the station is not com- pletely furnished, the quarters are quite comfortable.
Grading and seeding of the entire lot has been contracted for, work to begin as soon as the weather permits this coming spring.
The Committee wish to express its appreciation to the Town officials and residents for their cooperation while this project was in progress.
Very truly yours, North Chelmsford Firehouse Building Committee ROGER WELCH,
Secretary.

ANNUAL TOWN REPORT
CEMETERY COMMISSION
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen
and the Citizens of the Town of Chelmsford:
The Cemetery Commissioners and Superintendent of Cemeteries take pleasure in making out this report.
During the year 1956 there has been several improvements ac- complished.
In the rear section of the West Chelmsford Cemetery, the sur- face of the roads have been removed and gravel put in its place a foot deep and will be oiled this year. Water mains have been ex- tended to this section and a new sign placed at the entrance.
Heart Pond Cemetery has had its roads graded and oiled.
More and larger flower beds were planted in all Cemeteries.
There is one major planning job that your commissioners would like to accomplish. Most all sections in all six cemeteries need re- grading, fertilizing and grass seed. This will take several years to accomplish.
Your commissioners have had letters sent to lot owners who have not put their lots in Perpetual Care and we have established a rising scale on the size of their lots in regards to annual charges, and are recommending that they put their lots under Perpetual Care. This will eventually ease the cost of running the department. The Cemetery Department is compelled to take care of all Per- petual and Annual Care lots. This includes the cutting of grass, fertilizing, seeding, and the regrading of Perpetual Care lots when needed.
Our total revenue for the year amounted to $5,690.34 with an- other $5,325.00 added to the Perpetual Care fund.
If you will please give us your support at the Annual Town Meetings, we will be able to accomplish these things and have everything satisfactory to those concerned.
The Commissioners wish to thank all town officials for their co- operation during the past year and would like also to thank the Superintendents of the Highway and Water Departments for their co-operation during the past year.
Respectfully submitted
Arthur J. Colmer, Chairman Frank H. Hardy, Clerk Arne R. Olsen

ANNUAL TOWN REPORT
REPORT OF CHELMSFORD INDUSTRIAL
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
The Commission hele its organization meeting on Thursday, July 20. shortly after its members had been appointed by the Board of Selectmez. Ted Zabierek was elected Chairman and William Kier- zan. Secretary.
The Commission's attention and eforts during its first six months of existence have been centered principally on the preparation of a survey or inventory of the town's resources, areas zoned for in- dustry and the many factors of interest to companies which are seeking a site for a new plant. Good progress has been made on this essential preliminary phase of our activities and an attractive Brochure summarizing the highlights of this study and emphasizing the advantages which Chelmsford has to offer industrial concerns will be printed within the next few months, for distribution to in- dustrialists, bankers, business development departments of local railroads, public utility companies, and large industrial real estate brokers and developers.
Contact has already been made with one firm which has ex- pressed an interest in consolidating and transferring its operations from the Greater Boston Area to a site in a community such as Chelmsford. This "prospect" is considered a good one and every- thing possible is being done to find a suitable plant site for the company in our town. As a result of the individual efforts of one member of the Commission, a newly organized firm which manu- facturers components for the electronics industry has already rented a building in the Center section and will commence opera- tions in the very near future. Initially this will be a small compa- ny with eight or ten employees but it holds promise for good growth.
All real estate brokers in Chelmsford have been invited to list with the Commission any property for wihch they are agents and which is suitable for industrial plants. Any citizen who knows of any firm which is looking for a new plant site should pass this in- formation along to the Commission so that an appropriate contact and follow-up can be made.
Townspeople who may have expected an immediate industrial renaissance in Chelmsford as a result of the appointment of the Commission should remember that such a development does not occur overnight. Months and sometimes years of painstaking work may be required before tangible results of a project such as ours becomes evident. We feel, however, that the establishment of the
143
ANNUAL TOWN REPORT
Commission has been a very constructive move for the town since it provides a clearing house for inquiries on possible industrial sites, a centralized source of information for the management of companies planning to expand or relocate their plants and an agen- cy for promoting with every possible means the industrial develop- ment of the Town.

ANNUAL TOWN REPORT
RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE PERSONNEL BOARD OF THE TOWN OF CHELMSFORD
I. INTRODUCTORY REMARKS
1. The By-Law of the Town of Chelmsford on Personal Wages, Salaries and Administration is as follows: Recommendations for changes in wage and salary rates and classifications for the follow- ing year shall be made in writing to the Finance Committee not later than Dec. 21st of each year.
2. The Personnel Board was not completed until the election on Friday, December 17, 1956, when Board Member Wright was elected by the employees. Consequently, meetings had to be held, department heads interviewed, statistics examined by the Board, de- cisions made and this report written in the following week and the first four days in the week of December 17, 1956.
Under the circumstances, it is obvious that no extensive personal investigation of the wage rates and classifications in surrounding towns could be made.
3. The Board is required under the aforesaid By-Law to consider the following: Whenever the Personnel Board reviews the wage and salary provisions of this Plan, it shall take into account and give such weight as it may deem desirable to the following:
a. Rates of pay for like positions in other Massachusetts towns considered by the Personnel Board to be comparable to Chelmsford.
b. Rates of pay for like jobs (if any) in commercial and bus- iness establishments in area of Chelmsford and vicinity.
c. The current level of the following cost-of-living indexes:
I. Retail Price Index-published by the Department of Labor and Industries, Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
2. Consumers Price Index-published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor.
Information on like positions in other towns has been furnished the Board by Department heads and is assumed to be accurate. The statistics on the retail price index have been studied by the Board. The combined price index, published by the Commonwealth shows almost a four percent rise this year from Jan. 1, 1956.
145
ANNUAL TOWN REPORT
4. The Board of Selectmen has requested this Board in accord- ance with #4 (b) of the By-Law to study and make recommenda- tions for salaries and Wages of all elected officials of the Town of Chelmsford. Under this provision of the By-Law, the Board may make such recommendations at any time "prior to" the Town Meet- ing. These recommendations are included as Paragraph "H" of Sec- tion #24 of the Personnel, Wage, and Salary Administration By- Law.
5. The Board finds no regulations made for the guidance of the Personnel Board in accordance with the provisions of the By-Law. This Board intends to make such regulations for the guidance of this Board and other Boards in the near future.
6. It is the unanimous opinion of the Board, that while all Public Service is of course vitally important to the Community, a special responsibility rests in these critical times on the Police and Fire Departments. In the event of a national emergency, it is upon these departments that the brunt of Civil Defense work in this town will fall and it cannot be overlooked that this is a vital factor which we must consider. An examination of Wages and Salaries in other towns indicates that both these Departments, in general, are underpaid and the Department heads indicate a serious worry as to losing valuable employees who may not be adequately replaced un- less present Wages and Salaries are raised. It is very important, in our opinion, that the highest standards of quality be maintained here. 1956 rates for these Departments appear to be much lower than most comparable town.
7. Before writing this report, this Board met with practically all Department Heads and with the Board of Selectmen and the Fi- nance Committee in order to obtain the benefit of a free discussion with them.
With these introductory remarks, we submit our recommendations for Wages and Salaries for the year 1957.
