REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
The Finance Committee organized for the year with George M. Campbell as Chairman, Stuart C. Thurston as Vice-Chairman and Rollins L. Hale as Clerk. Meetings were held during the year to discuss in detail budget requests of the various departments and committees and we extend to them our appreciation for their cooperation and assistance. Some of our members also attended budget meetings of the Wachusett Regional Committee during the year.
The total 1965 departmental budget to be raised from the 1965 tax levy (not including action to be taken on the town warrant articles) is $569,472.46 an increase of $38,837.06 over the recom- mended budget for 1964.
The increase in the school budgets were $26,400.56 for Ele- mentary Schools and $6, 756.91 for the Wachusett Regional School, while the balance of the increase is divided among several other departments.
Recommendations on the Articles in the Town Warrant will be made at the Town Meeting.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN
To the Citizens of Rutland:
The Selectmen organized with Lloyd Campbell, Chairman; James Wood, Clerk, Frank Brooks , member.
The Board met every other Monday night with numerous special meetings called as town business required.
Mr. Carl Christianson was appointed Superintendent of Streets. Chapter 90 funds were used to install drainage and re- surface 2800 feet of Maple Avenue starting at the Veteran's Hospital gate. In 1965 this section will be hot topped and ex- tended to Kenwood Drive. A limited amount of work was done on Wachusett Street. The oiling program was carried on and will be continued in 1965.
During the year, the new fire truck was put into service; the Naquag Welfare District was formed with Paxton, and the insurance coverage of town buildings and contents was revised.
The Selectmen are pleased to report that many citizens cooper- ated in clearing old cars and junk from their property. It is hoped that the residents will continue to cooperate so that legal action will not be necessary since a time limit was establi- shed for May 1, 1965.
The Selectmen thank the members of the various boards and committees for the service they have rendered the town.
Respectfully submitted
Lloyd Campbell James Wood Frank Brooks
