INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION REPORT
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION REPORT
Dear Mr. Gates:
As a result of last year's town meeting an Industrial De- velopment Committee was formed. The people appointed to that committee were as follows: Daniel Ahearn, Paul Black, William Hoffman, Edward McMorrow and Phillip E. Young.
This committee to date has held three meetings. The dis- cussion at these meetings centered around the feasability of interesting industry as it is commonly known to our town. All members were in agreement that this is a geographic im- possibility, mainly because of transportation difficulties. A further discussion with representatives from other town boards brought forth the opinion that our endeavors should center towards interesting individual small businesses in locating in Scituate.
As a result this committee will direct all the future en- deavors along these lines.
Very truly yours,
DANIEL AHEARN PAUL BLACK WILLIAM HOFFMAN EDWARD McMORROW PHILLIP E. YOUNG

STATE AUDIT REPORT
REPORT OF THE :
STATE AUDIT
September 15, 1961
To the Board of Selectmen Mr. Lester J. Gates, Chairman Scituate, Massachusetts
Gentlemen :
I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Scituate for the period from May 24, 1959 to February 13, 1961, made in accordance with the provi- sions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. William Schwartz, Assistant Director of Accounts.
Very truly yours,
HERMAN B. DINE Director of Accounts
Mr. Herman B. Dine Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation State House, Boston
Sir :
In accordance with your instructions, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Scituate for the period from May 24, 1959, the date of the previous examination, to February 13, 1961, and report thereon as follows :
The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the Town or committing bills for collection, were examined, checked, and verified by comparison with the books of the town accountant and the town treasurer.
176
STATE AUDIT REPORT
The books and accounts in the office of the town accountant were examined and checked. The receipts, as recorded, were checked with the records of the departments making payments to the treasurer and with the treasurer's books, while the pay- ments were checked with the treasury warrants approved by the selectmen and with the treasurer's cash book. The appro- priations and transfers were checked with the town clerk's records of town meetings and the reserve fund transfers were checked with the records of the advisory board.
The accountant's ledgers were analyzed, the necessary adjusting entries resulting from the audit of the several depart- ments were made, and a balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on December 31, 1960.
The books and accounts of the Town treasurer were exam- ined and checked. The recorded receipts were compared with the several departmental records of payments to the treasurer, with other sources from which the town received money, and with the accountant's books, while the recorded payments were checked with the approved warrants authorizing the disburse- ment of town funds and with the accountant's books. The cash balance on February 13, 1961 was proved by verification of the cash in the office and by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit.
The transactions of the trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer were verified, the savings bank books representing the investment of these funds being exam- ined and listed.
The recorded payments on account of maturing debt and interest were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities on file.
The records of payroll deductions for Federal and State taxes, the county retirement system, and hospitalization and group insurance were examined and checked, the payments to the proper agencies being verified.
177
STATE AUDIT REPORT
The records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were examined and checked in detail. The taxes and water liens transferred to the tax title account were compared with the tax collector's books, while the recorded disclaimers, abatements, and foreclosures were verified. The redemptions and sales of tax possessions were checked with the treasurer's recorded receipts, and the tax titles and tax possessions on hand February 13, 1961, were listed, reconciled with the ac- countant's ledger, and checked with the records at the Registry of Deeds.
The books and accounts of the town collector were exam- ined and checked. The taxes, excise, assessments, and water liens outstanding at the time of the previous examination, as well as all subsequent commitments, were audited and proved. The recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the recorded abatements were proved with the assessors' records of abatements granted, the transfers to the tax title account were checked with the records of tax titles held by the town, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.
The commitments of departmental and water accounts receivable were examined and checked. The recorded collec- tions were proved with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements as recorded were compared with the departmental records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the controlling ledger accounts.
The outstanding tax, excise, assessment, departmental, and water accounts were further verified by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indi- cating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
As may be noted from the balance sheet, there are out- standing tax and excise accounts dating back to 1956. It is recommended that the collector make a determined effort to effect a prompt settlement of all delinquent accounts.
The financial records of the town clerk were examined and checked. The collections on account of dog and sporting
178
STATE AUDIT REPORT
licenses, as well as of miscellaneous receipts, were verified and compared with the payments to the State and to the Town treasurer.
The records of licenses and permits issued by the select- men, and the building, wire, plumbing and sewerage inspec- tors, as well as by the police, and health departments, were checked, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.
The surety bonds of the town officials who are required by law to furnish them were examined and found to be in proper form.
The available records of departmental cash collections by the sealer of weights and measures, as well as by the school department, and by all other departments in which money was collected for the town, were examined and checked. The pay- ments to the treasurer were verified and the cash on hand in the several departments was proved by actual count.
There are appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, tables showing reconciliations of the treasurer's and the collector's cash, summaries of the tax, excise, assess- ment, tax title, tax possession, departmental, and water ac- counts, together with schedules showing the condition and transactions of the trust and investment funds.
During the progress of the audit cooperation was received from all town officials, for which, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, I wish to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM SCHWARTZ Assistant Director of Accounts

In submitting this year's report, I find it necessary to call to your attention the importance of the proper staffing of the Collector's Office.
With the growth of the Town and the increase in the number of new accounts, it is imperative that additional compe- tent help be added for the proper functioning of the duties required and for the safeguarding of the financial condition of the Town.
I wish to thank my Office Associates for their loyalty and conscientious efforts in these trying times of rapid growth and tremendous work load.
Respectfully submitted,
JOSEPH R. DILLON, Town Collector
