REPORT OF THE PLANNING BOARD FOR THE YEAR 1916.
The Planning Board herewith submits its third annual report.
During the year a study was made of the sewerage propo- sition as applied to Weymouth and the following conclusions were reached.
First : That the one great problem is sewage disposal. Second : Four possible methods suggest themselves :
1. Independent sea outlet, either alone or in conjunction with other towns. This would be so expensive as to be prac- tically prohibitive.
