At North Weymouth Beach along Wessagussett Road, a sea wall should be built to retain the street and allow the cleaning of the beach in this vicinity. It is recommended that this wall be built at the earliest possible time.


For the not too distant future, we may mention at this time that care and thought be given to the preparation of adequate zoning laws to insure the proper development of the waterfront for industrial purposes.


All over the Town there seems to be a determined trend towards win- ter sports and while a not too great sum of money should be spent to purchase facilities for those engaging in such recreation, it does seem to the Planning Board that areas could be provided in each section of the Town for this purpose. In this connection we recommend that on the land of Nellie G. Leary that a skating area be provided, such project in- volves only the excavation of about a half acre of land to make it usable for this purpose.


For the future may we suggest that if further building construction is to be engaged upon that a new set of Town Garages be erected in place of the present Town Barns which are somewhat outmodeled. This re- commendation is merely a thought at this time for we recognize that in our rapidly growing community the size of the present lot on which the Town Barn stands will be too small on which to erect an adequate building and hence when the time arrives, consideration must be given to the purchase of another piece of land.


North Weymouth has a civic center of its own now with the new Fire Station which has been erected on Athens Street. In this little center there is not only the Fire Station, but a school building, an elegant church, and a Town Park. The only drawback to its being an ideal civic center is the location in the middle of this group of an old dwelling which has not a great value attached to it. We would recommend that this building and land be purchased by the Town, the building to be razed and the land equally divided between the Fire Department and the School Department between which it now stands.


In view of the fact that dumps throughout the Town are rapidly be- coming a menace to health, and eye-sores to the neighborhood, they will if allowed to expand, create a serious situation. We ask at this time that thought be given to the installation of an incinerator.


By and large the Planning Board feels that the physical condition of the Town is most satisfactory. The improvements that have been made on Town properties during the past few years are just now beginning to manifest themselves. Your Planning Board is greatly appreciative of the assistance and co-operation received from other Town Departments. For the coming year, it hopes that these same departments will be as friendly and helpful as in the past, and hopes that it may report a year from today the same progress that this report demonstrates, has been made in the past year.

REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT


East Weymouth, Mass.


January 28, 1937.


To the Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen:


Herewith is submitted the thirty-fifth annual report of the Accounting Department recording certain facts relative to the financial affairs of the Town. Complete detailed information regarding any financial trans- action is available in my office to those who wish more than what appears herein.


The accounts of the several town officers have been examined regularly, all bank balances verified at least once a month and the cash and securi- ties of the town always found in order.


The statements appended to this report give evidence that the town has consistently maintained a sound financial status.


The Net Debt of the town has been reduced to $576,000, a sum less than it has been for 10 years. During this period $620,000 has been liquidated, or more than our present total net debt.


A Surplus Revenue of $176,436.98 shows an improvement over that of last year irrespective of the fact that $15,000 was used toward the con- struction costs of the Ward One Fire Station. Tax Title Revenue of $66,042.14 will also find its way eventually to Surplus Revenue for the town has never been obliged to borrow against tax titles, as has been the case with many other municipalities.


The favorable rates at which the Town of Weymouth has borrowed on anticipation of Revenue Notes is further evidence of the favorable rating the town holds with those who are in a position to determine its financial condition.


The large sums expended for Public Relief and Old Age Assistance have been materially relieved by the contribution of the Federal Govern- ment but with the increase in the number of applicants for Old Age Assistance it is apparent that this will be a continued expense of larger proportions from now on.


Considerable satisfaction accrues to this department when audits and examinations are made of the financial activities of the town by non-resident experts in their profession. Such examinations have been made on five different occasions during my 17 years service as Town Accountant, by the Division of Accounts, Department of Corporations and Taxation of the Commonwealth, the most recent in 1936, and at all times have the financial affairs been found in order. This should be cause of satisfaction to the citizens of Weymouth, not from an accounting standpoint alone, but from the fact that it gives assurance that all officials charged with the responsibility of handling municipal funds have been faithful and honest in the conduct of their respective ac- tivities.


The acceptance by the Town of Chapter 318 of the Acts of 1936, providing for a Contributory Retirement System effective on July 1, 1937, creates a Retirement Board of three, one of whom shall be the Town Accountant. Information will be given employees from time to time so that they may be made familiar with the requirements for admission to the system.


274


Any one seeking knowledge relating to any of the problems of municipal finance, as far as Weymouth is concerned, is not only invited but is urged to call upon me at any time for such service as I may be able to render.


Successful accomplishment of any task requires the utmost co-operation. I am mindful of and appreciate the helpfulness and painstaking effort of my office personnel as well as that of all public officials with whom it has been my pleasure to be associated.


Respectfully yours, EMERSON R. DIZER, Town Accountant.
