THE TOWN OF ACTON


CHAPTER 90 CONSTRUCTION


The final phase of the construction on Main Street was completed with a course of Type I hot top and berms. The slopes were graded, loamed, and seeded, and a sidewalk was constructed from Kelley Road to Massachusetts Avenue. The banking at Coughlins was renewed with many tons of field stone and old curbing.


CHAPTER 90 MAINTENANCE


Hot top and treated stone were placed on a portion of North Main Street. Hot top and oil seal were applied on portions of Pope Road and School Street. These roads were scraped, patched, and swept before the final work was completed.


CHAPTER 81


The following streets were scraped, patched, and swept before being re- surfaced with asphalt and sand:


Cherokee Road


Minuteman Road *


Lilac Court


Brook Street


Railroad Street


Kinsley Road


Mohawk Drive


Sioux Street


Seneca Road


Arlington Street (Part) *.


Seminole Road


Homestead Street


Quaboag Road


Birch Ridge Road (Part) *


Oneida Road


Cherry Ridge Road


Algonquin Road


Juniper Ridge Road **


Huron Road


Woodbury Lane *


Agawam Road


Strawberry Hill Road (Part) *


* Indicates streets which were mixed in place.


* Indicates streets which were mixed in place, then oiled and sanded.


Hammond Street, Forest Road, and portions of Minot and Robbins Streets were graveled and graded.


DRAINAGE


The drainage problem is an endless one. With the great increase in building, water that previously went its own way into the fields and meadows now finds its way into catch basins. Our largest drainage project this past year was the second phase on Central Street and Church Street. In 1964 we hope to finish this project and to include Pearl Street. Well over 650 catch basins and drop inlets were cleaned during the course of the summer.


BETTERMENTS


North, South, and Cross Streets were reconstructed under the provisions of the Betterments Act. This included the installation of a drainage system in addition to the resurfacing.


SIGNS AND LINES


Speed limit signs were placed on Newtown Road. This year one and two hour parking signs were installed in West Acton, and "No parking on this side" signs were placed on Spruce Street. In addition, many signs were re- paired and repainted. Approximately twelve miles of center lines were re- painted. The Lions Club donated the green paint for the crosswalks through- out the town.

228th ANNUAL REPORT OF


ARTICLES


A new municipal parking lot was constructed by the Highway Department in the rear of the West Acton Fire Station. The Department also prepared the site for the new tennis court.


DISPOSAL AREA


The Town Disposal Area under the supervision of Arthur Conquest has operated very successfully. During the year a new roadway was bulldozed to the base of the area, allowing more room to excavate gravel. Since Novem- ber the area has been closed on Sundays, and this has proved satisfactory.


CARE OF GROUNDS


The Town Commons and playgrounds were maintained, and the roadsides were all cut.


EQUIPMENT


Equipment added to the Highway Department during the year included a Gallion Roller, a Baughman sand spreader, a Frink snow plow, and a cement mixer. All pieces of equipment have proven satisfactory.


This brings us to the question of the annual Highway Department budget and its share in the overall picture of the Town's budget. In 1952 the Highway Department spent a total of $61,752 (8.7% of Town budget) for all its main- tenance work with a crew of five men. The Town's population was about 3,600 with 51.70 miles of road.


Ten years later, the Highway Department spent $99,815, representing only 4.6% of the Town budget. The Town's population had grown to 8,000 with 73.15 miles of road. The Highway budget in these ten years has decreased in comparison to the town budget, the population, and the road mileage. Even though recent roads were built to good standards, we cannot affort to neglect their continued maintenance just as we must improve existing old roads in order to make them safer for the heavier traffic that has resulted.


Thus, it is inevitable that the Highway Department will need more equip- ment in the near future including a new truck, a street sweeper, a com- pressor, and a backhoe which could be used not only in the summer but also for snow removal operations.


It now appears that much of the land now occupied by the Highway Depart- ment is going to be used for the new addition to the Library. Buildings will have to be taken down or moved so that there will be room for Library park- ing and landscaping. It may be necessary to relocate the Highway Department in a new area should the additional Library facilities require too much of the present Highway Department land.


In closing, I wish to express my appreciation for the patience and coop- eration from the Board of Selectmen and the entire Highway Department personnel. In addition, my thanks to the Fire Chief, the South and West Water District, the Engineering Department, and members of the Police Department.


Respectfully submitted,


ALLEN NELSON

REPORT OF THE TOWN FOREST COMMITTEE


To The Honorable Board of Selectmen:


We herewith submit our report for the year 1963. Clearing of under- brush and fallen trees from the fire lanes in both Town Forest areas was done this year. In addition, an area surrounding a water hole in the Durkee lot was cleared of dead trees and underbrush to facilitate fire control.


Boy Scout groups are now using both Town Forest areas for camping and other woodcraft activities.


Mr. William Kazokas has graciously offered the town the use of a strip of his land for a right of way from Arlington Street to the Durkee lot.

REPORT OF THE TREE WARDEN


To The Honorable Board of Selectmen:


I herewith submit my report of the year 1963. Our tree planting pro- gram was started in April this year. Over 50 trees were planted at this time, with the remainder of our planting done in October. Most of these trees were planted on private property due to better growing conditions there.


Dead wood and low hanging branches on trees along several streets were removed this year. A number of weak and diseased trees were removed. In addition to these the department removed several trees on recommendation of the Safety Officer.


Stumps were ground down below the street level where they extended onto the traveled way.


Respectfully submitted, FRANKLIN H. CHARTER Tree Warden


REPORT OF THE VETERANS' AGENT


To The Honorable Board of Selectmen Town Hall


Acton, Massachusetts


This department has again had an extremely busy year aiding Veterans and their dependents with hospitalization and pensions.


Our case load has dropped from the same period last year, but applica- tions have been on the increase with the majority being settled in other cities and towns throughout the Commonwealth.


The Pension Law for Veterans' widows was changed in 1960 and I am sure that there are widows within the town who are not aware of this. They

may be eligible for more benefits than they are now receiving, or there may be widows who are not receiving any Veterans' Widow pension that are eligi- ble. If there are any questions pertaining to this subject or any other Veter- ans' problems please contact me at the Town Hall Tuesday evenings from 7:30 P.M. to 9:00 P.M.


My gratitude to the Board of Health, Police and other departments, who have given so kindly their time and knowledge in assisting this department with various investigations.

Gentlemen:


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Acton for the fiscal year 1962, made in accordance with Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. William Schwartz, Assistant Director of Accounts.

THE TOWN OF ACTON


Mr. Arthur H. Mackinnon Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation Boston, Massachusetts


Sir:


In accordance with your instructions, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Acton for the fiscal year 1962, and submit the following report thereon:


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 and checked with the records of the town treasurer and the town accountant.


The books of the town accountant were examined and checked in detail. The receipts, as recorded, were checked with the available departmental records and with the treasurer's books, while the payments were compared with the treasurer's cash book and with the selectmen's warrants. The ap- propriations and transfers, as entered, were checked with the town clerk's record of town meeting votes and with the finance committee's records of transfers authorized from the reserve fund.


An analysis was made of the ledger accounts, a trial balance was taken off, and a balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared show- ing the financial condition of the town on December 31, 1962.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked. The cash book additions were verified, and the recorded receipts were compared with the town accountant's books, with the records of the several departments collecting money for the town, and with other sources from which money is paid into the town treasury. The recorded payments were checked with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the treasurer to dis- burse town funds and with the accountant's records.


The cash balance on February 12, 1963 was proved by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit.


The payments on account of maturing debt and interest were verified by comparison with the amounts falling due and were checked with the cancelled bonds and coupons on file. The outstanding coupons were listed and recon- ciled with the amount on deposit for their payment, as shown by a statement furnished by the depository.


The savings bank books and securities representing the investment of the several trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer and the trustees of the Charlotte L. Goodnow Fund were examined and listed. The income was proved, the transfers to the town were verified, and all transactions and balances were checked with the records of the town treas- urer and town accountant.


The records of payroll deductions on account of Federal and State taxes, the county and teachers' retirement systems, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and group insurance were examined and checked, and the payments to the proper agencies were verified, while the balances, as shown on the employ- ees' records, were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger accounts.


The records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were ex- amined. The reported redemptions were checked with the treasurer's cash


138


228th ANNUAL REPORT OF


book, and the tax titles and tax possessions on hand were listed, reconciled with the accountant's ledger, and checked with the records at the Registry of Deeds.


The books and accounts of the tax collector were examined and checked. The taxes, excise, and assessments outstanding at the time of the previous examination, together with all subsequent commitment lists, were audited and compared with the warrants issued for their collection. The collections, as recorded, were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the recorded abatements were proved with the assessors' records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the respective controlling accounts in the accountant's ledger.


The records of departmental accounts receivable were examined. The payments to the treasurer were verified, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger accounts.


Further verification of the outstanding tax, excise, and departmental ac- counts was made by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names ap- peared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


The assessors' records of apportioned street betterment assessments were examined. The amounts added to the tax levy of 1962 and the payments in advance were verified, and the apportionments due in future years were listed and reconciled with the respective accounts in the town accountant's ledger.


The financial records of the town clerk were examined and checked. The recorded receipts on account of dog, sporting and town licenses, as well as from miscellaneous permits and charges, were checked, and the payments to the treasurer and to the Division of Fisheries and Game were verified. The cash balance on February 12, 1963 was proved by actual count of the cash in the office.


The surety bonds filed by the several town officials for the faithful per- formance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form.


The available records of departmental cash collections by the board of selectmen and the sealer of weights and measures, as well as by the police, fire, health, school, library, and cemetery departments, and by all other departments in which money was collected for the town, were examined and checked. The recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, and the cash on hand in the several departments, including petty cash advances, 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 town clerk's cash, summaries of the tax, excise, assessment, tax title, tax possession, and de- partmental accounts, as well as schedules showing the condition and trans- actions of the several trust and investment funds.


During the progress of the audit cooperation was received from the several 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
