REPORT OF TOWN ENGINEER
To the Board of Selectmen-
Gentlemen :
The work done in the office of the Town Engineer during the year 1931 consisted of establishing lines and and grades for new granolithic sidewalks, staking out new street lines and setting some stone bounds for same.
Various departments of the Town have called on us for some work, and we have complied with their re- quests in every case.
We have made surveys, plans and staked out lots in Vine Hill Cemetery for the Cemetery Commissioners and furnished lines and grades for the School Depart- ment in connection with its studies for an addition to the Junior High School.
We have made two detail plans and estimates for Parking Places for the Planning Board, one at Town Brook at the Morton Grain Mill, and another on School Street on the easterly side. Also, several plans and surveys for proposed new street layouts.
Respectfully submitted,
ARTHUR E. BLACKMER, Town Engineer.
