REPORT ON INVESTIGATION COMMITTEE ON ELECTED TOWN OFFICIALS SALARIES


We, a committee of five members, being appointed at the last annual town meeting by the town moderator, consisting of Mark Read, Richard Jones, Howard Jordan, Robert Harris and David Darrah for the purpose of investigating the salaries of the elected town officials and their possible adjustment, submit the following report:


Any recommendation for salary adjustment here within offered, are, in general, based upon the following reasoning.


As the town is constantly growing, the duties of the of- ficials have increased accordingly, necessitating a greater amount of time being spent, and, since no adjustment has been made since 1953, it is reasonable to expect that an increase should be in order.


However, due to the salaries of most of the officials being "token" salaries only, not necessarily designed to compensate the individual for his time, the amount of any increase recommended had been judged accordingly.


In the process of our investigation, one or more members of each office being considered, were conferred with. Also, salaries of like officials from several other similar towns were compared. With this in mind we recommend the following:


Town Clerk:


Present salary #200.00 Recommend an increase of $200.00, making a total of $400.00


This office is somewhat an exception, in as much as it is necessary for the person in this position to be available at all times.


We feel that the town is quite fortunate in having Miss Hanff as Town Clerk, and have recommended accordingly.


--


30


Board of Selectmen:


3 members plus clerical assistance Present salary #825.00 Recommend an increase of $75.00, making a total of $900.00


Considered here was the fact that some assistance has been given the selectmen, in as much as $200.00 was voted for clerical work last year.


Board of Assessors:


3 members plus clerical assistance Present salary #1050.00 Recommend an increase of $150.00, making a total of $1200.00


As we have been advised, that the Assessors anticipate per- forming the work generally done by Clemenshaw, which amounted to $200.00 yearly, we feel that the above increase is justified. ( The $50.00 balance we understand, will be submitted by the Assessors as an increase for their clerical expense.)


School Committee:


3 members


Present salary #275.00 Recommend an increase of $75.00, making a total of $350.00


Welfare Board:


3 members


Present salary $200.00 Recommend an increase of $75.00, making a total of $275.00


--


When salary adjustments were previously recommended in 1952-53, the Welfare Board advised that their salary was suf- ficient, due to the assistance received from their Agent.


At the present time, the members feel that an increase would now be in order and acceptable.


Water Board:


3 members


Present salary $275.00 Recommend an increase of $75.00, making a total of $350.00


- -------- - - -- ------ -----

Board of Health:


3 members


Present salary $145.00


Recommend an increase of $55.00, making a total of $200.00


Park Commissioners:


3 members


Present salary #225.00 plus compensation for work performed


It appears to the investigating committee that this salary is sufficient, based upon the duties performed, and meetings called only as necessary. Therefore, we do not recommend any change at this time.


Moderator:


Present salary $30.00 Recommend an increase of $10.00, making a total of $40,00
