Weymouth Civil Defense has continued to function satisfactorily at a town level, mostly through its two most active units, the Auxiliary Police and Mobile Communications. These units served the town of Weymouth during the flood period and several other occasions. On each occasion the services rendered were highly satisfactory and were to the benefit of the town.


Probably the most important Civil Defense function during the year was the installation of generators for emergency power and walkie-talkie


191


equipment for the fire department. This was necessary due to power shortage which caused the isolation of certain equipment during the 1954 hurricanes.


We again thank all those who have contributed to Civil Defense and remind others that there has been no change over the long years of our existance in the basic responsibility of all citizens to share in the common defense.


Respectfully submitted, HERBERT W. CAUSER Director, Civil Defense

REPORT OF STREET DEPARTMENT


December 30, 1955


Honorable Board of Selectmen Weymouth, Massachusetts


Gentlemen :


I hereby submit the annual report of the Street Department for the year ending December 31, 1955.


The folowing private ways accepted by the annual town meeting under Article 7, were released by the town counsel. All streets were worked and metal street signs erected where needed.

Roland Rd.


Blake Rd. Ext. Doris Dr.


Sunrise Drive


Branch Rd.


Elizabeth Lane


Newton Ct .- 400 ft. of stone penetration


Pepper Rd .- 250 ft. of stone penetration Whipple St .- drainage installed


The folowing town ways, previously accepted, but not worked, were provided for under Article 8 of the annual town meeting:


Danbury Rd.


Endicott St .- 500 ft. of stone penetration and drainage installed Holmes Ave .- 1080 ft. of stone penetration and drainage installed


Julia Rd .- drainage installed


Perry St .- being worked


Pierce Ct .- drainage partially installed


South Ave .- 450 ft. of stone penetration and drainage installed


Vinson St. Ext .- built to grade and drainage installed


The Weymouth Landing Parking Area was graded, penetrated, and sealed in acocrdance with Article 11 of the annual town meeting.


Charles Diersch St. was rebuilt and 1050 ft. of stone penetration put in place along with retaining walls, and a 24 inch culvert in compliance with Article 12 of the annual town meeting.


250 ft. of roadway was constructed on the town property at 402 Essex St., as voted in Article 14 of the annual town meeting.


A new drainage system was instaled on Adorn, Belmont and Summer Sts. as voted in Article 22 of the annual town meeting.


A parking lot was started on the land acquired off North St. in North Weymouth under authorization of Article 24 of the annual town meeting. In conjunction with this work a new drain was built in the area in order to better drain the large area of swamp land on North St. and to relieve the householders between the parking lot and the ocean of sea water which previously backed up through the drainage system. The foundation of this parking lot was allowed to settle during the past six months because of the relative instability of the clay found under the swamp land in which


193


part of the lot is being constructed. At present the parking lot is again under construction.


Commercial St. from Washington St. to the Weymouth Landing rail road station was resurfaced by Bradford Weston, Inc. of Hingham, under a Chapter 90 contract. Plans were drawn up by the state and country to continue reconstruction of Commercial St. to Pierce Rd., but the entire program was delayed by the state until spring because of the inopportune showers in August.


Extensive drainage work was done, requiring about 90 catch basins; 25 man holes; 36 ft. of 8 inches corrugated pipe, and 82 ft. of 10 inch corrugated pipe; concrete pipe: 9,807 ft. 10 inch, 3,853 ft. 12 inch, 52 ft. 18 inch, 1,332 ft. 24 inch, 40 ft. 36 inch, and 80 ft. of 72 inch.


The accepted streets in South Weymouth and Weymouth Landing were sealed in accordance with our program of sealing all streets every second year.


The program for construction and repair of permanent side walks in the town was carried out under the direction of the Board of Selectmen by contract with the Weymouth Asphalt Co.


The program of rubbish collection was continued on a bi-monthly schedule. This program required twenty per cent of the total personnel available to the Street Department on a full time basis.


An extensive reconstruction program was initiated during the latter part of August and all of September to repair the liquidation of our streets by excessive rainfall. The entire department worked a seven-day-week schedule so that the damage could be repaired quickly and with as little inconvenience to the motoring public as possible. All streets were patched, catch basins and drains were cleaned; a new culvert was built on Elm St. at the point where Old Swamp River washed the road away. Lorraine St. was rebuilt where it washed away. Charles Diersch St., which was under contsruction, was rebuilt where it washed away. Pleasant St., between Water and Iron Hill Sts., was rebuilt, many walls and culverts all over town were rebuilt or patched where they were undermined.


The following new equipment was purchased during the year:


4 Mack Trucks


1 Rubbish Packer Body on an International Truck


2 Side Walk Tractor Snow Plows


1 Side Walk Roller


1 Salt Spreader Attachment


1 Wainroy Back Hoe Attachment for a Hough Loader.


I wish to thank the heads of the various town departments for their cooperation, and especially the employees of the Street Department for all the help they have given me, the benefit of their knowledge, in trying to make my first year as Superintendent of Streets as easy as possible.

Respectfully submitted, LLOYD R. CROWTHER Superintendent of Streets

REPORT OF DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE


January 9, 1956


The Honorable Board of Selectmen


Weymouth, Massachusetts


Gentlemen:


I hereby submit my annual report for the year 1955.


Relief in general has numerically held to a level, but expenditures, as I predicted in my last annual report, have increased. Again I must warn your board that the costs of relief will increase in the current year over the year of 1955.


This again can be charged to the increase in medical costs, par- ticularly the anticipated increase of hospital charges. As of this writing we have not, as yet, received from the State the figures to be used for this current year but all indications suggest a substantial increase in the per diem rate in all categories of relief.


The legislative act granting transportation allowance to most all old age assistance cases calls for a substantial increase in this particular category.


I am requesting this year an intermittent clerk to supplement my clerical staff during vacations and sick leave because of the tremendous influx of paper work that is fast becoming impossible to keep abreast of with my present staff of clerks.


Again I wish to thank your board and those departments which have been so cooperative during this past year.

REPORT OF THE SEWER COMMISSIONERS


December 31, 1955


To the Board of Selectmen


Town of Weymouth


Gentlemen:


We are pleased to forward our Superintendent's report and with it our own for the year ending December 31, 1955.


Last year we built a little more and this year we built a little less than we had planned due to bid prices.


Our four aims have been the construction of a trunk sewer line to each of the four principle centers of the Town. The arrival of the East Wey- mouth Trunk Line at the Lovell Playground and the completion of that contract fulfills in part our plan. There are, of course, other trunk lines and sub-mains yet to be built. At the same time, the driving of these trunk lines makes possible more lateral lines to areas where the sewer is both needed and wanted.


There are signed applications and petitions in our office now for such sewers and insofar as we can, and where it is practicable to do so, we propose to satisfy these requests in the order received. Depending upon our appropriation and bid prices for 1956, we hope to satisfy about half of these requests during the coming year.


From time to time we are asked about the cost of a complete Sewerage System for the Town. Based upon eight years of experience, we offer our latest estimate as follows.


As of January 1, 1955, there are approximately 171 miles of Town and Private Ways in Weymouth. During the years to come, several miles of additional streets will be constructed, however, the figure of 171 includes many miles of so-called paper streets with a 20 foot width that will probably never be developed. It, therefore, can be assumed that if 170 miles of sewers are installed the system would be substantially completed. Gaps in the sewer lines at summits and dead end street, etc. should balance out the sewers that would be constructed through easements off streets through back land.


At present there are 24 miles of sewers in the Town installed at a cost of approximately $3,000,000.00, indicating that the system is about 14% completed. Therefore, the installation of 146 miles of sewers and ap- purtenances will be necessary to complete the system.


As of January 1, 1956 there are an estimated 10,730 dwellings, garages, and stores in the Town. To date there are 1,053 separate Particular Sewer Connections, representing approximately 9.8% of the total possible con- nections.


With an annual appropriation of $500,000.00, it appears that about 38 years will be necessary to complete the system at an estimated cost of approximately $19,000,000.00 based on present day prices.


201


Maintenance & Operation 38 years at $77,000.00 per year


$2,926,000.00


Particular Sewer Construction 10,000 connections at $250.00 each 2,500,000.00


Common Sewer Construction & Appurtenances 146 miles at $93,000.00 per mile 13,578,000.00


$19,004,000.00


Based upon present methods of assessing, it is believed that Parti- cular and Common Sewer Assessments may eventually recover an estimated $4,300,000.00.


Respectfully submitted, J. HERBERT LIBBEY, Chairman JOHN W. FIELD, Clerk CHARLES J. MASTERSON


REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SEWER DEPARTMENT


December 31, 1955


To the Board of Sewer Commissioners Town of Weymouth


I submit herewith the eighth annual report of the Sewer Department.


During 1955 approximately one and eight-tenths miles of sewer mains and laterals were installed. The East Weymouth Pumping Station and a Night Soil Disposal Chamber were nearly completed.


May 26, 1955, Contract 26 was awarded to A. Baruffaldi Company of Somerville, the low bidder. The bid price for this contract was $161,195.00. This work was divided into two parts. Part I, the East Weymouth Main Sewer, involved the installation of an 18 inch pressure sewer and a 16 inch cast iron force main, with parallel 8 inch gravity sewers, from St. Anne Road to the East Weymouth Pumping Station located off Wharf Street. Also included in this contract was an 18 inch gravity sewer to be installed from the Pumping Station in the direction of Commercial Square, pass- ing through a tunnel underneath the New York, New Haven, and Hart- ford Railroad. This sewer will provide a connection for the school to be erected in the Lovell Playground. All but the installation of the tunnel and some general cleaning up was completed this year. Part II involved the installation of a Night Soil Disposal Chamber located off Winter Street. This structure should be completed early in the spring of 1956.


May 26, 1955, Contract No. 27 was awarded to Richard White Sons, Incorporated of West Newton, the low bidder. The bid price for this con- tract for the construction and site development of the East Weymouth Pumping Station was $109,097.00. This station, which will serve the entire East Weymouth Sewer District, is scheduled to begin operation the early part of 1956.


June 6, 1955, Contract 30 was awarded to Richard White Sons, In- corporated of West Newton, the low bidder. The bid price for this con-


202


tract was $53,906.00. This work involved the installation of 10 inch, 12 inch, and 15 inch sewers along Front and Sterling Street to Walnut Avenue. This contract was completed with the exception of cleaning up and land- scaping in the vicinity of Sterling Street.


July 18, 1955, Contract 20 was completed by DiMinico and Pallotta, Incorporated of Malden at a cost of $174,967.16. With the completion of this contract, the gravity portion of the East Weymouth Main Sewer that extends through the North Weymouth Sewer District from Pearl Street to St. Anne Road was completed.


August 16, 1955, Contract 28 was completed by Salah and Pecci Con- struction Company of Brookline at a cost of $98,009.07. Contract 28 in- volved the construction of lateral sewers along Pleasant Street, Broad Street, Broad Street Place, connecting the Academy Avenue School, Linda and Lantern Lane, King Cove, Sherwood Road, Rosalind Road, Rosemont Road, and a portion of Evans Street.


During the year sewers were installed in several new developments. In these projects the Sewer Department designed the sewers, engineered construction, and supplied pipe and castings. The developer was required to do all other work and supply all other materials for these installations. For the particular sewer connection, the developer supplies all materials and labor. Sewers were installed in the following streets in new de- velopments: Sandy Way by Oakcrest Realty Company, West Lake Drive by Arthur Oman and Sons, Incorporated, Sundin Road by Charles S. Sundin, and Ingrid Road by Klasson and Ericson Contracting Company, Incorporated.


This year 231 Particular Sewer Connections were installed.


The department added to its equipment with the purchase of a Dodge 11/2 ton Truck, a 3 inch Centrifugal Pump, a 3 inch Diaphragm Pump, a Backhoe Attachment for the department Front End Loader, and a 2200 watt Portable Electric Plant.


All preliminary survey, design, and contract inspection for our 1955 construction program was done by the department engineering staff, except- ing the design of Contract 26, the East Weymouth Main Sewer and Ap- purtenances, and Contract 27, the East Weymouth Pumping Station. This construction was designed by Metcalf and Eddy our consulting engineers, who also provided a resident engineer. Surveys and design for our 1956 contsruction program, now being progressed by our engineering staff, are well under way.


At this time I would like to extend my sincere thanks to my fellow workers and all town departments who so courteously assisted us the past year.


Respectfully submitted, NORMAN M. SMITH Superintendent of the Sewer Department
