HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT REPORT


REPORT OF THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT


To the Citizens of Scituate:


During the past year your Highway Department had to curtail many improvements that were planned for 1957 due to the $26,000. decrease in our budget for 1957 (which would have meant not more than $1.00 on your tax rate). This meant cutting drainage, resurfacing roads and many improvements which I know would have been beneficial to the people of Scituate, especially the work- ing man.


As you remember, 21/2 miles of new roads were accepted in 1957 as public ways with not one cent appropriated for their main- tenance which means that this year the cost to put them in suitable condition will be much more expensive. This year again we are faced with accepting approximately 3 miles of new streets.


The demands for drainage installations all over town still head our request list. We try to do a certain amount each year in line with our budget. As we can readily see, the entire highway appropriation could be spent on this item alone.


In the spring, our first thought is to clean our streets of sand used during the winter (for which our power sweeper has paid dividends over and over), repairing guard rail and street signs, roadside damage caused by snow plows, patching holes in the road surface, resurfacing, traffic regulations and parking spaces. Most of the maintenance work on highways, sidewalk maintenance and drainage systems is done during the summer months with few com- plications due to the weather and not to interfere with summer traffic.


The winter months are devoted entirely to snow removal problems. Snow removal equipment must be overhauled and put in first class condition and must be ready to go any time during the day or night as the occasion arises. Scituate can be proud of our snow removal program and the cost is well in line with the cost of other towns of our size.


As you may know, a year ago Scituate was awarded $35,388.09 from the Department of Public Works through their bond issue


84


HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT REPORT


to be spent on highways in Scituate which have the approval of that Department. Last year, Henry Turner Bailey Road was resur- faced from North Scituate Village to Route 3A. We also used a portion of that money in conjunction with Chapter 90 for the construction of Beaver Dam Road from Tilden Road to Scituate Harbor with absolutely no cost to the Scituate taxpayer. This work must be finished by June 1, 1958. We realize that the work on Beaver Dam has inconvenienced the people of that section and we wish to thank them for their patience. Our Chapter 90 for 1958, with no cost to the taxpayer, will be used to resurface Gan- nett Road from Mordecai Lincoln Road east toward Minot Beach as far as the money will allow.


You will note that there are no figures in this report as we have been requested to make it as brief as possible. Otherwise the whole Town Report would be filled with the activities of this Department. If any citizen of Scituate would like to know how his money has been spent during the past year on any given project, he will be welcome at the Highway garage and we will be glad to go over the figures with him.


In conclusion I would like to thank all Departments which have co-operated with this Department and made our work so much easier for 1957.


Respectfully submitted, MATTHEW L. BROWN,


Highway Surveyor.

WATER COMMISSIONERS' REPORT


REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONERS


To the Citizens of the Town of Scituate:


We wish to report a very favorable year in this Department. As we all remember, this past year was one of the driest on record. With this drought went a need for extended use of water for both the farmer and home owner. This Department kept a close watch on water tables in each well and also kept the use of water restricted to a minimum. It was curtailed only on one week-end when the demand was greater than the supply.


The results of our exploration and testing this past year have produced a site that will give enough water to warrant a gravel packed well. It will be a welcome addition to our present supply which is adequate during the winter months but not so during the summer.


A supply of water is only as good as its distribution system. Scituate is very fortunate to have many miles of mains that have been installed within the past twenty years. There are, however, many streets with mains 45 to 55 years old that are in need of re- placement. One of these is a 6" cast iron main on First Parish Road, from Kent Street to Cudworth Road, installed in 1902.


Your Commissioners feel that an expenditure of $100,000.00 at this time to complete the entire street would be unwise and, therefore, have submitted a plan to the Advisory Board that will allow us to install approximtaely 1000 feet per year until the job is completed. The funds for this project would be included in the budget and not raised under a special article or on a bond issue.


We, of the Water Department, will miss the services of William J. Lumbert who passed away during 1957. For over twenty years he was the Superintendent of the Water Department and later head of the Civilian Defense.


We wish to thank the other Departments in Town for their cooperation during the past year.


Respectfully submitted, JOHN R. BROWN, Chairman HENRY E. BEARCE LEO P. MURPHY

WATER SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT


REPORT OF THE WATER SUPERINTENDENT


December 31, 1957


To: The Water Commissioners of Scituate


Gentlemen:


Following is the 26th Annual Report of the Scituate Water Department recording the work accomplished during the year 1957.


For several years, the water supply has become more and more inadequate and, this fact together with the increasing population has created a demand for an additional supply.


Exploration work has been conducted each year in an effort to find a new source of supply and the results of the borings and pumping tests in the Hick's swamp area warrant the construction of a pumping station.


Ground conditions in Scituate are such that no large supply can be found and a well that will deliver 500,000 gallons per day is considered exceptionally good.


Owing to the severe drought during the past year, the water tables have not reached previous normal levels and, unless there is considerable precipitation before the summer of 1958, it may not be possible to allow as much freedom in the use of water as might be desirable.


Scituate was more fortunate than many towns in the eastern part of the United States but there were many days when the supply was so low that the water situation was very critical and the water level in the well fields became depleted to such an extent that continuous pumping at pump capacity became dangerous. Water pumped in 1957 was 60 million gallons more than in 1956 or an increase of 19%. This increase in pumpage clearly shows the need of continuous exploration work to meet the ever increasing demand as Scituate continues to grow.


A total of 9117 feet of six to ten inch mains were installed by the Water Department and private enterprise, 12 new hydrants


87


WATER SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT


were added to the system and 6 hydrants were installed to replace those broken by automobiles or moved to new locations. 171 new services and 142 meters were installed and 61 old services were renewed.


A detailed Table of the year's accomplishments follow this report including the capital expenditures which determine the Department's valuation.


I wish to thank both the Heads and Personnel of all Depart- ments for their fine cooperation throughout the year.


Respectfully submitted,


W. T. SHERMAN,


Superitnendent

I am not asking for any additional men this coming year, but I am recommending four Traffic Supervisors (Female) to aid school children crossing streets at the school house areas. School crossings have become a great problem during the past few years, and I am recommending these Traffic Supervisors to relieve the regular force for other very important police duties. The position of Traffic Supervisors will not be under Civil Service.


Two members of your Police Department graduated from the Massachusetts State Police Academy at Framingham during the


93


CHIEF OF POLICE REPORT


year and I have it in mind to send two members there during the year 1958.


Again this year I wish to call your attention to the great need for a new police station, and ask your co-operation in making this possible at the coming March Town Meeting.


On August 3rd Patrolman Carl C. Chessia passed on to his reward. Carl as we all knew him was a fine and loyal officer in this department for twenty-eight years. His smiling face and loyal serv- ices are greatly missed by us all.


In September of this year, Patrolman Frederick W. Stanley retired after twenty-eight years of faithful and loyal service to our Town as a police officer. We all wish Fred many years of comfort and happiness in his retirement.


I wish at this time to thank the Honorable Board of Selectmen, all Town Officials and the various Town Departments for their fine co-operation during the year.


To all the citizens of the Town of Scituate my sincere thanks for their support and co-operation.


Respectfully submitted,


WILLIAM F. KANE,


Chief of Police.

CLAM WARDEN'S REPORT


REPORT OF THE CLAM WARDEN


To the Board of Selectmen Scituate, Mass.


The report is based on the activities of the Department.


Humarock was again opened for digging in November. The clams in this area are so thickly populated that the flat has to be dug over to give the rest a chance to grow during the summer months.


Over 6,000 feet of fencing was put out at Humarock and the North River Flats. The lumber for these fences was given to the Town of Scituate by the State, through Richard Burton, State Biologist.


Three fenced areas have good sets of clams. Two areas will be opened in November 1958, at Humarock.


The traffic in the South River damaged one fenced area put out this year and the crabs cleaned out the clam seed, which was one quarter inch in size. The seed at this size is so near the top of the flat it is easy prey to the crab unless protected.


This year four fences will be put out at Humarock and will in time guarantee steady digging. One fence will be put back at Wills Island, where there is a good set, a little over one inch in size.


The clams seed is on the flats every year and if given some protection from the green crab, it will have a chance to reach legal size. The flats in Scituate are not rocky gravel flats, as in some towns, and the crab has little trouble digging out clam seed.


Our work is made possible by the funds received from the State. One thousand dollars was granted in 1957. We would like to fence in more arcas, but funds are limited.


All mussels were cleaned out of the fenced in areas.


Respectfully submitted, WALTER O'NEIL, Clam Warden.

VETERANS' AGENT REPORT


REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF VETERANS' SERVICES


To the Honorable Selectmen and to the Citizens of Scituate:


May I submit our report for services rendered to our veterans during the year 1957.


We now have over 1000 veterans in the Town and the expendi- tures for Veterans' Services have amounted to about $10.00 per vet- eran. For the services rendered by these veterans, your heroes from 1917 to 1919, from 1941 to 1946 and from 1951 to 1955, they certainly deserve everything our citizens can give them.


Our thanks again to our Board of Selectmen, to our Police Chief Kane and his wonderful department, to Chief Curran for his remarkable assistance in charitable collections, to Mr. and Mrs. John Nichols for the help they have given our needy veterans from the Crabtree Estate, to the Scituate Kiwanis Club, to the Salvation Army, to the Red Cross and to all the citizens of our grand community for what they did when an emergency arose.


JEROME F. CROWLEY,


Veterans' Agent.

BOARD OF HEALTH


REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH


To the Citizens of Scituate:


With the cooperation of those employed by our Board and all others interested in health matters, your Board is pleased to report that our Town has been free from any serious epidemics and has had very little outbreak of any contagious disease during 1957.


During the year all places where food was dispensed, including restaurants and hotels, were inspected by the State Department and our Board, and as a result, many corrections were made by owners for the best interests of themselves and the public.


In conjunction with the Plymouth County Health Association and the Public Health Nursing Service a Chest X-ray Clinic was held. The results were very favorable; over 1000 people took advan- tage of the Clinic.


The annual Antitoxin Clinics for Diphtheria, Whooping Cough and Tetanus were held in conjunction with the Nursing Service and more than 500 children attended these Clinics. During the year Polio Clinics were also held in accordance with State recommenda- tions and we are pleased to report these Clinics were well patron- ized. All Town employees in essential positions were inoculated against Asian Flu, results of which were very satisfactory.


Our two Dumps have been improved and the use of them has greatly increased.


During the summer months beaches under our jurisdiction have been cleaned whenever necessary and no complaints were re- ceived in regard to their condition.


With a growing population our work continues to increase, but we are pleased to report that our Town still holds fast to its position as one of the healthiest towns in the Commonwealth.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL DENTIST AND DENTAL HYGIENIST


Board of Health Scituate, Massachusetts


Gentlemen:


By the end of December, children in the first and second grades and the morning kindergarten will have been completed by the dentist.


No work has been done in the lower grades at Wampatuck or Jenkins Schools since the opening of schools in September.


This report marks the end of a thirty year period caring for the teeth of the children of Scituate. I have enjoyed the coopera- tion of the teachers, members of the Board of Health and the parents. My sincerest thanks to all of them.


I would recommend installation of minimal equipment at Wampatuck and Jenkins Schools. The hygienist could examine more pupils for the early detection of caries and then refer them to the family dentist.


Respectfully submitted, W. B. PARSONS, D.M.D. LILLIAN HIGGINS, D.H.
