TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN


1936 - 1963


To the Citizens of Scituate:


In accordance with the prior votes of the Town, a Public Works Department will come into being immediately following our annual Town Meeting in March with the Selectmen acting as Public Works Commissioners. The Selectmen have not been content to let this change come upon them suddenly but have taken many preparatory steps to insure an immediate operating Public Works Depart- ment. The Public Works Department will include the functions of previous departments known as Engineering, Highways, Water, Park and Tree Warden.


It is obvious that the establishment of a Public Works Department to take over the prior departments in an organizational revision of such magnitude that all of the desirable changes cannot be made at once. There must be a transitional period during which some of the prior organization will be retained. We must still continue to perform the functions of these various departments. We would like to report, however, on some of the things that we have done to date, on some of the things which we will be planning to do during the coming year, and some of the longer range plans.


We have appointed as the first Public Works Superintendent, - John E. Bamber. John's long experience as a Town Engineer and his intimate connections with the department operations qualify him well for this position. We are proud of this choice. We have worked with Mr. Bamber in the preparation of a con- solidated P.W.D. budget, and from preliminary discussions with the Advisory Committee the budget which will be presented to you will include this single budget for all of these prior departments. For a comparison of the estimated costs for the new Department with the prior departments, it will be necessary to add to- gether the prior budget of the separate departments. Under this combined budget we expect to find a flexibility in the use of equipment and personnel which will produce more efficient operation and, at the same time, savings to the Town.


During the coming year we will expect to develop yearly, monthly, weekly and daily plans for the various units in the Department, with systems of accounting which will reflect more closely our costs of operation. We will expect closer control of purchasing and inventory of equipment and materials. Sometime during the year we would expect to reorganize the space in the Town Hall to accommodate the new Department and to transfer much of the billing operation of the Water Department to this new space in the Town Hall. We will look carefully at the possibility of reduction in permanent full-time personnel, and the use of temporary personnel during the busy season. Again, we must caution that there are transi- tional problems both in relation to physical location of units and also with respect to personnel.


10


TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT


As a long range proposition we will look to the possibility of a central location for the Public Works Department, possibly at the present Highway Department quarters, and the advisability of owning more -- or less -- of our own heavy equipment, or alternatively, contracting for work and materials.


These are a few of the problems which have been discussed and for which we must find solutions; but with the fine cooperation which we have had from members of all departments concerned, we are confident that these and other problems will be solved to the Town's benefit.
