In the report of the Water Commissioners for 1926 it was explained that the construction of the proposed extra high service system (extending from Deep Water Bridge to Malaguti's, along the line of the proposed new road) had been postponed until the necessary grading on the new road should be completed.


The new road project failed to be approved at the Town Meeting in March, 1927, and the Water Commis- sioners thought it wise not to proceed with construction of this extra high service system until definitely assured that the new road project would not be revived.


A replacement of the 6" low service line on Court Street, between Samoset and Lothrop Streets, should be made during 1928, by laying about 1,300' of 10" pipe. Two dead ends on the high service system at Lothrop Street and Water Street Extension should be connected with 500' of 6" pipe, and 450' of 2" on Union Street be- tween Bradford Street and Water Street should be re- placed with 6" pipe. We recommend an appropriation of $5,000.00 for replacing these old pipes.


There have been 301 meters set during the past year, making the total number now in use 1,582, or 54% of all the services are now metered.


It is the judgment of the Commissioners that the metering program should be continued until all services are metered and we recommend an appropriation of $6,- 000.00 for new meters.


The maintenance cost of the department does not fluc- tuate greatly and we recommend an appropriation of $22,000.00 for maintenance, the same amount that was expended last year.
