Report of Assessors' Survey, 1935


In making a report for the past year on work accom- plished under the appropriation, we are pleased to mention that practically all the general area of the town has been plotted and it is in but a few various sections that concen- trated work of surveying and plotting will be necessary to complete the work.


The town has spent (including 1935 appropriation) $3000 on this work. It has been definitely proved that each year now will show an increase of revenue in this amount, alone, due entirely to this work. From the standpoint of investment it is one of the best that the town has made in many years. In addition to this, interest is being aroused in sections of the town where property has been dormant for decades. Several new houses have been built on lands heretofore valueless due to unknown ownerships and pro- perty lines. The coming years will show increased activity in this direction.


When towns take it upon themselves to go into work such as we have been doing for the past six years many de- finite results are immediately apparent, viz :-


1. More equitable assessments.


2. Ownerships of lands shown in correct relation to all others on an accurate atlas.


3. Tremendous help for assessors in preparing the tax list.


48


4. Assistance in plotting and planning roads, etc.


5. Incentive for owners of unknown properties to build.


6. Assistance in sale of real estate and help to create activity in this direction.


7. Increase in yearly revenue which compounds in in- terest each and every year.


It might be well to review the fact that the Town of Eastham has had an atlas made of its township at a cost perhaps the lowest in the Commonwealth. Many towns have paid ten to twenty times more than the cost of the Eastham atlas and not getting any more usable results or effects. This coupled with the fact that very much of the lands in Eastham have been mapped and developed for over fifty years with stakes and lines long since obliterated should make the taxpayers of the town proud indeed.


Much of this economy has been due to the fact that all this work was carried on in depression years with salaries low and no profits to the writer. Trained technical help has been used throughout on the work and no sacrifice made on the work.


In making our recommendations for the coming year we wish to have the taxpayers interest themselves in sever- al things, namely :-


1. Make a visit to the town hall and look at the atlas as now prepared. Look at their own ownerships and acre- ages as plotted. Inspect the work in general.


49


2. This year has seen the startling of building north of the Eastham Light. Much more will come within a few years and, as a result, increased town revenue. The tax- payers should take a definite stand to get roads staked out north of the light to assist the many owners in this section to find their lots that they might build there. The writer knows of several owners who will build there this year. An appropriation of $250 should be raised independently for this work as it will come back in one year in increased revenue.


3. Compare the work done in Eastham with the work done in any other town in the Commonwealth.


4. Talk with the Selectmen and Assessors on the value


of the work.


5. Think seriously of raising $500 this year for the plotting of various unknown ownerships and the possibility of raising several hundred dollars for deed and title exam- inations of questionable properties.


In conclusion we wish to thank the taxpayers again for the opportunity of serving then and through whose efforts this work has been made possible. In addition, we wish to express our thanks again to the Selectmen, the Town Clerk, residents and taxpayers for their co-operation.

Again this year, the Division of Public Libraries at the State House has loaned us many books, both for use at the schools and for many who wanted books which our library cannot afford to buy. Any one wishing any book of non- fiction can borrow it, through the public library, and pay- ing return postage. The Division of Public Libraries is also giving some juvenile books for the children's depart- ment.


The Cape Cod Library club met in Harwich this year, which I attended. About two dozen books were sent to the rebinders.


Herbert Nickerson gave the library a "Record of the Massachusetts Volunteers '64-'65" and Gordon Harris gave a good collection of boy's books.

Report of Fish Constable


To the Board of Selectmen,


Gentlemen :


I hereby submit the report of my services as Fish Con- stable for the year ending December 31, 1935.


During the year, I have worked 530 hours policing the shores and bay of the town.


I have contacted about 300 persons in regards to per- mits and found only a very small number without them, and with the exception of two persons all cooperated with me in obtaining them. These two, however, failed to se- cure them and were prosecuted and found guilty in the District Court.


After considerable controversy over the clam grant of Mr. Bernard C. Collins, a summons was issued and one person was brought into court and found not guilty, due to the fact that the Town of Orleans had not accepted the particular statute under which this grant was issued, at that time.


Respectfully submitted,


FRED P. TURNER,


Fish Constable.
