Arlington Avenue.


That portion of the avenue between Water street and the residence of Fred. E. Fowle, Esq., and a section near Teel street, have been thoroughly repaired by crowning with fine crushed stone and gravel.


It will be unnecessary for us, at this time, to call your attention to the other portions of the avenue ; that repairs are needed thereon is apparent to all.


That portion near Lexington line, and a short section near Park avenue, have never been macadamized, and re- quire immediate attention.


Academy Street.


A catch-basin has been put in, and drain pipe laid through land of and into pond of M. N. Rice, Esq., which has par- tially remedied the trouble heretofore experienced, but it is not yet quite satisfactory. So much water coming from dif- ferent directions to this one point, we think, requires another or larger catch-basin. That part of the street opposite the property of John H. Hardy and W. T. Foster, Esqs., needs attention very much, as all water coming from Gray street and surrounding hills has to run to this point, and there is no outlet for it except as it overflows the sidewalk. We think if the town could arrange with Mr. Foster to lay a drain


9


SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


pipe through his land of sufficient size to dispose of the water in this locality, it would prove a judicious invest- ment.


Appleton Street.


This street, from the main avenue to Claremont avenue, has been repaired by use of road machine in clearing gutters and cutting down the shoulders of the street, and is in very good condition. Some portions of the street have no side- walks, and a part of the street should be graded the ensuing season.


Broadway


Needs some repairs near the line of Somerville. The passageway from the street through Alewife brook should be fenced up.


Claremont Avenue.


Sidewalks are very much needed on one side of the street, the entire length, and in some portions on both sides. The crossings or gutters at the junction of Appleton street and Wollaston avenue should be concreted or paved.


Decatur Street.


That portion near North Union street has been repaired the past season, and the remainder should be attended to the ensuing year.


Eastern Avenue.


A sidewalk has been graded, and gutters cleared, from Park avenue to the top of the hill near Highland avenue. Some gravel will be needed on the hill this season.


10


SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


Gray Street.


This street, accepted by the town at its March meeting, will need some outlay, as in its construction no gutters were formed, and the water has to find its way nearly the entire length through the middle of the street. Some repairs have been made near Academy street the past season.


Grove Street.


We can only reiterate what we said in our last report. Much trouble is experienced upon this street by the large amount of water coming from the main avenue. We can conceive no way to remedy this except by laying a drain pipe from the avenue to the brook near the saw factory, of sufficient size to receive the water from this street which collects in the hollow adjoining lands of J. Crowley and D. Hurley. By this method you would relieve the serious trou- ble both on the avenue near the residences of W, H. Rich- ardson and others, and the outlets below Schouler court, which are all now inadequate at times to take all the surface water coming from the hills.


Highland Avenue.


The gutters have been cleared. Some gravel is needed upon some portions of the street.


Hillside Avenue.


That portion of the street and sidewalks between Florence and Oakland avenues has been thoroughly built the past season. This was the worst part of the street to be built, as it is springy and the loam and stones had not been re- moved. Other portions of the street might be completed in the Spring.


11


SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


Jason Street,


Accepted by the town last Spring, needs crowning with gravel, as so much loam was used in its construction that heavy teams cut it up badly in wet weather. A sidewalk has been graded upon one side of the street to the new house of Mr. A. L. Teel.


Lake Street


Has been thoroughly repaired from the main avenue to the R. R. crossing, with stone and gravel. The remainder of the street is in very bad condition, and we recommend that it be treated in the same manner to the Belmont line.


Lowell Street


Needs some crowning with stone and gravel near the Lex- ington line.


Mt. Vernon Street.


The gutters have been cleared and the street regravelled the entire length, and it is in excellent condition.


Mystic Street.


As reported last year, the hill on New Mystic (so called) needs to be repaired with stone and gravel. A section op- posite the Niles estate needs to be repicked and rolled. As that portion of Old Mystic (so called) from the estate occu- pied by C. W. Bastine to the foot of the hill is seldom used, we would suggest that it would be well for the town to dis- continue the same.

SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


North Union Street


Has been repaired near Decatur street by raising the hol- low with gravel. Gravel is needed on it near Broadway.


Prospect Street.


A street at the Heights, recently accepted by the town, has been rough graded, and will require some repairs.


Pond Lane.


Much trouble has been experienced heretofore on this street by the overflow of the water-grate at the junction with the main avenue. A second catch-basin and water-grate have been put in the past season, which we think will prevent further difficulty.


Park Avenue.


Considerable repairs will be needed upon this street the ensuing season.


Pleasant Street.


Quite extended improvements are needed upon this street. A system of drainage for the surface water on some por- tions should be devised, which, we think, can be easily done without damage to any of the abutters, by slightly reducing the grades ; the street could then be put in excellent condi- tion, at a reasonable expense, by the use of fine crushed stone and gravel.


Pine Street.


This street, which has so many times been referred to the Selectmen, has been repaired, the past season, by blasting


13


SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


out the ledge on the hill near its junction with Summer street, and by building a bank wall, and raising the street about two feet in the hollow beyond. It is now in very good condition.


River Street.


This street needs repairs its entire length, and the con- struction of a sidewalk at least on one side, in order to render it passable during the winter season, for children who attend school at the centre and those living in that vicinity.


Spring Valley


Will require repairs the ensuing season.


Walnut Street.


The gutters have been cleared and the street regravelled the entire length, and it is now in good condition. A catch- basin has been put in at the foot of the street, and a drain laid from thence through land at the Highland Hose House to the brook, thus relieving the gutters on the avenue which had to receive the water before.


Wollaston Avenue.


A sidewalk should be constructed at least on one side of the street. Some portion has been graded the past season and the washout's upon the street have been repaired.


Westminster Avenue.


A short piece of sidewalk is needed near the residence of Wm. J. Quinn.

SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


Watering Streets.


The same routes have been watered as last year. Calls have been made to water Mystic and other streets, but as we have no more carts than will cover the present routes, the cost of building new ones, together with erecting stand- pipes, did not warrant undertaking any more watering the past season.


Bridges, Culverts and Catch-basins.


The River street bridge has been replanked this season. Eight water-grates have been set, and six blind wells or catch-basins have been put in. Drain pipe has been laid across Broadway and Warren streets, taking the water from that locality into the gutter on River street.


Guide or Sign Boards.


Seven new boards have been put up the past year. Several are in poor condition, and some have been torn down and destroyed by malicious persons, and will need to be replaced the ensuing year.


Railings.


Railings have been put up on Lowell street, near the resi- dence of John Brady, and a section on Mystic street. Several railings in different parts of the town will require repairs soon.


Stone Crusher and Stone.


The crusher is in good condition, except that a new belt will soon be required. The building should be shingled on one side at least the coming year. We have quite a quantity of stone piled in the yard, ready for crushing, which has been


15.


SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


taken from the gravel banks. More will be required than we now have on hand.


Teams and Tools.


The tools are in as good condition, natural wear excepted, as last year. Three new horses have been purchased ; the carts, harnesses, etc., are in good condition and well cared for, so that the actual value of teams and tools is fully equal to that of last year.


Almshouse.


As in former years the almshouse has been under the charge of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. W. Austin, who have given perfect satisfaction in the management of the same.


The buildings, furniture and fixtures are in good condition although some repairs are needed both on the exterior and interior of the house and stables.

SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


Street Lamps.


A contract was made for one year, from May 1, 1885, with the Wheeler Reflector Co., to furnish light for the lamps previously lighted by the Globe Gaslight Co., and they have thus far given satisfaction. Eight new lamps, lighted by this company, and two new gas lamps have been added.


The Arlington Gaslight Co. now furnish gas for 85 lamps, and the Wheeler Reflector Co. light 122 lamps.


The lamps are under the charge of Mr. James H. Fer- moyle.


Coal.


As usual, letters were issued requesting bids for supply- ing the town with coal.' Mr. Warren A. Peirce being the lowest bidder, to him was awarded the contract ; price, $4.90 per ton.


Cemeteries.


At the annual meeting in March last, a committee was chosen to have in charge the Cemeteries, and to their report we would refer you.


At this meeting, also, an appropriation of $125 was asked for, and granted, for the purpose of building a stone wall between the cemetery on Pleasant street and the estate of Nathan Robbins, Esq., the same to be expended under the direction of the Selectmen, but upon investigation it was found to be entirely insufficient. Mr. Robbins, with his usual liberality, came forward and built the wall at his own expense, with the exception of the capping, which was put on by the town at a cost of $135.90.

SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


Town Debt.


$21,000 of the town debt has been paid this year. $5000 falls due June 1, 1886.


Town House.


Last year your attention was called to the condition of the town house. We regret exceedingly that we are unable to speak of its improvements.


During the past year a careful examination has been made of the exterior, more especially the tower or cupola, and, in our opinion, the roof can never be made tight while the tower remains at its present height. The resistance to the force of the wind is so great as to cause a swaying motion, thereby opening many crevices through which the snow and rain can easily find their way ; and while such is the condi- tion of the roof and tower, it would be folly to attempt any extended repairs on the interior.


To obviate this difficulty, in the opinion of your board, no other way remains but to reduce the height of the tower down to the balustrade ; the remainder can then be made tight. That there are, or will be, objections to this, we have no doubt,-as in so doing the architectural beauty of the roof would be somewhat marred,-but whether it would be more hideous to look upon than the present condition of the interior is a question. On some portions of the exterior the mastic has already begun to cleave from the brick-work, more especially on the east side ; and had the building been oiled, as thought of, the result would have been a still larger falling off of the mastic. To make a thorough and com- plete job of it, the loose places should be cleaned off and repaired and then thoroughly paint the whole.


We would call your attention to some of the needed re- pairs on the interior of the hall; the ceiling should be


2


18


SELECTMEN'S REPORT.


whitened, the walls tinted, new carpet for rostrum, and new floor laid.


In that portion of the basement used as the "Lock-up," the cells should be re-arranged; there is but one that can be used at all times, the hot-air pipe from the furnace passing through the other renders it almost impossible to remain there. The space now occupied by two cells would be suffi- cient for four if they were made to open into the large room instead of into the corridor, as at present.


We have thus endeavored to give in detail what many of you were fully aware of, what is actually necessary to be done to the building, as a matter of economy, leaving it with the town to do as they think best.


Police.


The force consisted on the first of January, 1885, of Eugene Mead as chief, Garret Barry and M. J. O'Brien as patrol- men. These gentlemen were re-appointed at a meeting of the Selectmen in March, and in April Mr. Wm. O. Austin was appointed as a regular officer ; and in consideration of the large territory which they have to cover, we would say that the force as now constituted have performed their duties in a very satisfactory manner. For particulars of this de- partment we refer you to the Chief's Report, as follows :


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :


GENTLEMEN-I herewith submit to you the Annual Report of this department for the year ending Dec. 31, 1885 :

In the cases of liquor nuisance, one was fined seventy-five dollars and costs, another one hundred dollars and four months in the House of Correction, the other was placed on file, and a fine of one hundred dollars imposed, for keeping for sale. Quite a number of complaints for assaults, etc., have been investigated where no arrests were made.


Five lost children have been found, cared for, and returned to their homes.


April 1st Wm. O. Austin was appointed as a regular officer, making three officers for night duty, which enables us to give the town much better protection than we otherwise could.


Three hundred and two tramps have been sent to the almshouse for lodging, and thirty-four have been lodged at the station. EUGENE MEAD, Chief of Police.


Fire Department.


We refer you to the Report of the Chief Engineer.


The Treasurer's Report will show a detailed account of the receipts and expenditures during the year.
