REPORT OF SELECTMEN


To the Citizens of Rutland:


The Board of Selectmen organized for the year 1952 with Lloyd H. Campbell, Chairman; Donald M. Lincoln, Clerk; and Frank J. Brooks, the third member,


The Chapter 90 improvement of Pleasantdale Road was completed during the year and improvements were made on Maple Ave, at the intersection of Maple Ave. and Main St. We believe that this has improved the looks of the square greatly, and has helped somewhat to relieve dangerous traffic conditions.


We plan in 1953 to further improve the drainage on Maple Ave . and to make some Chapter 90 improvements on Pommogussett Rd. be= tween Main St. and the site of the old railroad bridge.


We have ordered some changes made in our street lighting system on Main St., between Maple Ave. and the State Sanatorium, and also to install three new lights on Miles Road for the convenience of the residents of the Rutland Training Center.


We believe that the voters in the near future should give some serious thought to a system of garbage collection, which in a town of our size is beginning to be a problem.


We are very glad to report that the State Highway construction on Route 122-A is nearing completion and should be entirely fin- ished in the early spring. With this new highway our traffic pro= blems will increase and mean more hours and manpower for our Police Department.


Respectfully submitted,


Lloyd C. Campbell Donald M. Lincoln Frank J. Brooks Selectmen of Rutland
