REPORT OF THE BOARD OF RETIREMENT


To the Citizens of the Town of Plymouth:


The Board of Retirement presents herewith its twenty-seventh report covering the activities of the Con- tributory Retirement System for the year 1963.


The year was an exceptionally active one, with twenty-eight non-teaching personnel of the Plymouth- Carver Regional School being admitted to membership and an unusually large number of retirement applications to be considered.


Two employees were retired under the Veterans' Act. As of December 31, 1963, there were seventeen non-con- tributory pensioners and one beneficiary receiving retire- ment allowances from the Town.


Chapter 478 of the Acts of 1963, if accepted by the Town at the annual town meeting, will increase the retirement allowances of many of our pensioners, now receiving small pensions, by amounts varying from $100 to $300 annually. This act will affect non-contributory, as well as contributory, pensioners.

Town of Plymouth Report of Advisory and Finance Committee on the Articles in the Town Warrant


March 23, 1963


This year's report of the Advisory and Finance Commit- tee could be a composite of various items from the reports of the Advisory and Finance Committees of the past, because many of the problems that existed then are still prevalent.


We have tried throughout the year to establish a mutual understanding with the various departments in our town gov- ernment for the benefit of every taxpayer of Plymouth, feel- ing that only through understanding and cooperation could sensible adjustments take place resulting in savings to the Town wherever possible. This is evidenced by the $36,000.00 decrease in Article 7 alone.


We have taken into consideration not only what has hap- pened in 1962-3 but also projected our thinking into the future so that the town will benefit from sensible planning. With this in mind we advise the Town Meeting Members to vote favorable action in Article 70, which concerns itself with plans for capital expenditures to be made in the near and distant future. Article 70 will give the Town a committee capable of long-range planning which will produce a list of needed capital expenditures in an order of priority over a period of years. As a result of the efforts of this capital expenditures planning committee the expenditures will be made progressively rather than in large sums in any given year.


With the completion of Route 3 By-Pass from Boston expected by December 1963, it will be necessary for Plymouth to plan ahead for the first major increase in population in its history. To prepare for this increase your committee feels that favorable action on the water articles 31 and 35 will be the first step in giving to the Town suitable expansion areas.


While a low tax rate is always desirable it has not been the prime moving force in our deliberation effecting expendi-


-348-


tures to be made by the Town. Our thinking has been tem- pered by the tax rate plus the aforementioned long-range planning for capital expenditures and the current needs of the Town.


The Advisory and Finance Committee wishes to express its appreciation to all Town Officers and various Commis- sioners, to the Department Heads and Clerks who have so graciously and generously given of their time and ability in the preparation of the various budgets and warrant articles.
