The Selectmen have received a request from the members of the Police Department for a five day work week. At the present time the members of this department work six days or a total of 46 2% hours per week.


The Chief and your Board favor a five day week and are re- questing funds in the 1950 budget for four additional men to give added protection to the townspeople and a shorter work week for the personnel.


There is a need for major street improvements in the town and during the year we requested the Town Engineer to draft a recon- struction program to include Puritan Road, Humphrey Street, Essex Street, Walker Road, and Devens Road at a total cost of $266,450.00.


This program should be extended over a period of 10 years through the medium of bond issues.


Puritan Road is in a deplorable condition and serious thought should be given to this project as it will be necessary to rebuild and reinforce the sea wall.


The Selectmen with the assistance of the Town Engineer and Surveyor of Highways are endeavoring to initiate a well planned long range sidewalk program.


There is still a demand for the use of the old Town Hall. This

building is used mostly for civic programs and as a result there is little or no revenue from this building. In addition it is in need of painting and repair but the Town will not appropriate any substan- tial funds for repair work.


In July 6, 1945 a committee was appointed under Article 28 of the Annual Town Meeting of that year and they submitted a re- port to the Annual Town Meeting of 1946, which is incorporated in the Town Report.


Your Board, in order that they may give due and proper con- sideration to the administration of this building, is inserting an ar- ticle in the warrant for the Annual Town Meeting to be voted on by the Town Meeting members. This will afford them an opportunity to decide whether or not the old Town Hall should be disposed of or funds appropriated for continued maintenance.


Respectfully submitted, EDGAR U. BURDETT, KENNETH W. ULMAN, FREDERICK R. CHAMPION, Board of Selectmen.
