REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT
East Weymouth, Mass. January 30, 1940
To the Board of Selectmen :
Gentlemen :
Herewith is submitted the thirty-eighth annual report of the Accounting Department, my twentieth as Town Accountant. Set forth herein are the principal items relative to the financial affairs of the Town of Weymouth which I believe gives as much information as is necessary in a report for publication. Should more detailed information be desired it is available in the accounting office at any time where every citizen should feel free to call.
The accounts of town officers have been examined frequently, cash balances verified regularly and the cash and securities of the Town found as reported.
The Surplus Revenue as of December 31, 1939 is $134,655.88 which rep- resents a gain of $31,985.68 over that of a year ago. I referred in my last report to the tax situation, and as was expected the rate was increased by $1.00, occasioned primarily by the State Tax deficit of the previous year. The outlook for 1940 appears more favorable and without any material increase in Town appropriations over those of last year it would seem that a reduction in the rate for the current year is attainable.
The Net Debt of $441,000 shows a reduction from that of last year, notwithstanding an issue of $60,000 to provide for the construction of the Nevin School Addition.
225
The taxation of municipal salaries by the Federal Government neces- sitated the compilation of information which this office was able to prepare, although considerable time was required. The maintenance of the Con- tributory Retirement System also requires much time of the accounting office.
A great improvement is shown in the Tax Title account as the net reduction for the year was $19,765.24. The Town now has possession of property, taken by foreclosure of title, representing a cost of $6,820 38. The actual value of this property probably substantially exceeds the cost and should be liquidated in order that the property may once more become productive of revenue.
The accomplishments of this office, in a large measure, depend upon the co-operation of other officials and officers for which I am grateful.
Respectfully yours,
EMERSON R. DIZER, Town Accountant.
