Maintenance at the Town house we estimate the same as last. year. The appropriation was $1,800.00. This was to include the cost of painting the Town House. It was thought best in view of the fact that the new vaults were being installed to wait and do the painting after that work was done. The last year's appropriation thus becomes unavailable and we ask this year for the same amount to include the cost of painting.


We would ask for the expense of this Department $1,800.00.


CLAMS AND SHELL FISH.


The subject of shell fish has been of considerable interest the. last few years. Plymouth in former times was one of the largest producers in New England. For some reason the flats became depleted and our people were deprived of a very considerable supply of easily obtained food products. This condition has now happily been cured and the flats and shores are well seeded


-21-


and with reasonable care should furnish a continuous supply of these valuable fish. The private grants are now in a condition to furnish all of the seed necessary to keep the Harbor 'well planted. So numerous were the clams this Winter that the Selectmen, influenced partly by the lack of work in Town, have issued special licenses, for a limited time, to ship the clams out of Town. This has furnished a chance for those so disposed to realize a small income in the digging and selling of clams and it has been largely taken advantage of. The continuance of this will depend on the condition of the shores and flats on the expir- ation of these licenses. Our policy being to retain a plentiful supply of clams for the use of our citizens at all times.


PILGRIM WHARF.


The condition of Pilgrim Wharf is one that calls for the most careful consideration. The severe storm of last January damaged the Wharf very much and it would seem to us that the repair or reconstruction of this Wharf was a matter that the Town had better consider in Town Meeting.


In May of last year Mr. Edward L. Burgess who had been Treasurer and Town Clerk announced his resignation. This was an unpleasant surprise to everyone connected with the Town Government. Mr. Burgess had filled these offices for seventeen years and proved himself to be an efficient official. However the Selectmen after much consideration selected Mr. George How- land for the position and he has acted in that capacity since with satisfaction to everybody concerned.

REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :-


I herewith submit the report of the Street Department for the year 1914.


ROADS AND BRIDGES


Maintenance


Under this heading is included the maintenance of the roads in the outlying districts and also the ordinary repairs and the cleaning of the streets in the center of the town. The automo- bile traffic, which is increasing rapidly, causes a much larger amount to be expended each year for general repairs on the roads and streets of the town and also necessitates the build- ing of much heavier and more costly new roads and streets.


A tarviated surface has been laid as follows: Sandwich street, 1 mile, 13,328 square yards; Court street, north of Park avenue, 1-4 mile, 3,105 square yards; Darby road, 3.15 miles, 27,915 square yards. On Court street, from the residence of Mrs. Knapp to Cherry street, a surface coat of refined Mexican asphalt has been applied, the length of the section treated being 3,800 feet or about 3-4 of a mile. Court street, from Shirley square,to the Armory, a distance of 1,300 feet, 24 feet wide has been given the same treatment. The Manomet Point road has had an application of the same material, the length of this road being 4,950 feet, or nearly one mile.


A section of five inch water bound macadam has been built


-25-


on Billington street which is giving good satisfaction. This section should be given an application of bituminous surfacing early next season. The length of this work is 1,926 feet and the width, including gravel shoulders, 22 feet.


Jordan road. Owing the heavy traffic on this road, which includes the large trucks of the Boston Woven Hose & Rubber Co., a considerable amount of work has had to be done this year; 150 tons of crushed stone and 60 yards of gravel having been used.


Construction


New work has been done on the following streets :-


Lewis street. This street has been rebuilt and extended in a semicircular direction from Mt. Pleasant street, near the house of A. T. Magee, to Mt. Pleasant street again, near South street, the distance being 610 feet and the width, including sidewalks, 40 feet. A sidewalk of ashes and crushed stone edged with block pavers has been built on one side for the distance of 420 feet.


Taylor avenue. This avenue has been extended to the outlet of Bartlett's pond and the surface covered with gravel.


Summer street, from the entrance to the grounds of the B. M. Watson estate to the entrance to Morton park, has been widened on the south side and a sidewalk of gravel with block paver edging put in. At Sparrow's hill a widening has been made and the alignment and grade improved.


The sum of 500 was allotted for repairs on the Beaver Dam road and this amount will be used this year.


Main street, at the corner of Leyden street, has been widened as far north as the Bramhall shore store.


Samoset street. A seven-inch bituminous macadam has been built on Samoset street from Court street to the entrance to Oak Grove cemetery, the section between Court and Allerton streets being bound with Bermudez asphalt and the remaining distance being treated with Tarvia X10. The same amount of each material was used: 2 1-4 gallons per square yard. The


·


-26-


result seems at this time to be much the same except that the asphalt has never bled while the Tarvia has had to be treated with a second coat of sand in several places. After completing the first layout on Samoset street, a small balance remained and an extension of 150 feet of water bound macadam was made on the west end. The entire length of this work is 2,200 feet and the average width is 27 feet, which would make this section equal 3,300 feet of 18 foot wide road, or nearly 3-5 of a. mile. This work was done under a special appropriation.


STREET SPRINKLING


The use of non-asphaltic oil for dust laying purposes has been continued this year, five tank cars having been used. The result of the use of this oil has been very satisfactory as it not only gives good dust laying results but prevents, in a great measure, washouts on the streets where it is used.


SIDEWALKS


Sidewalks have been built with ashes and crushed stone edged with block pavers, on the following streets :-


Lewis street,


420 feet


Court street,

REMOVAL OF SNOW


A very small amount of snow has had to be removed during the year.


SEWERS.


New sewers have been laid as follows: Lewis street, 223 feet; Davis street, 446 feet; Peck avenue, 655 feet. A large amount of work has been done on private sewer connections, for which the parties having the work done will pay.

Since the first of January 1915, bills for the following departments have been paid, and charged to the 1915 appropriations, which should have been paid in 1914, as the same are for labor, materials, etc., fur- nished during that year.

In order that each year's revenue shall pay for each year's expenses, I would recommend that the sum of $3,935.69 be appropriated by the Town from the Excess Revenue of 1914 to the several departments and appor- tioned as mentioned above.


I would also recommend the transfer of the amount left from the sale of the Armory, $1,366.38, to Town Debt and Interest, thus applying the same to the Armory Bond of $1,500.00 which is due the current year.


Respectfully submitted,


RICHARD T. ELDRIDGE, Town Accountant.
