Report of Selectmen
The figures and facts which follow in this report de- serve your careful study so that through understanding and knowledge you can assist us and direct us in the efficient management of the Town of Eastham.
As the summer visitors are our major source of income, we have tried to keep abreast of the times by improving and enlarging our parking lots at the beaches. This past summer the Town was fortunate in obtaining the services of George R. Whiting as a life guard at Nauset Light Beach. He also policed the beach there and the Coast Guard Beach in the mornings. The restrooms at Nauset Light Beach have proved to be a great advantage to the bathers. It is believed that many complaints will be eliminated if restrooms are erected at Coast Guard Beach also. Trash cans were placed at all beaches, and daily collections were made at the busy beaches daily. The time has come when daily attention is required by more of the beaches, and this situation is being studied.
There was a great influx of tents this year, with the at- tendant outdoor toilets. The owners of these tents were no- tified that they were not complying with the zoning By- Laws. This year the Selectmen and the Board of Health will enforce these laws. We are asking the passage of Article 26 to amend the By-Laws and make them more specific re- garding this matter.
The non-residents held two meetings last summer. A few of the services which they would like to have are regu- lar cleaning of the beaches, some kind of garbage disposal service and the services of a full-time policeman. They would also like to have regular inspections of their property in the winter.
7
The Selectmen feel that the time has arrived for the es- tablishment of a Police Department under Article 15. With the coming of the new Mid-Cape highway and a Parkway di- rect from New York, which will funnel into the Mid-Cape highway, a start should be made toward a Police Depart- ment. Very few people realize how many calls and requests the Police Chief receives at present. The people are demand- ing this service more and more, and those who have had occasion to use this service have found it to be very efficient. The Police Officers have been receiving $1.25 an hour for all calls, whether day or night. Most anyone will agree that this is a low rate for this type of work. All who have been to any of the public town functions, or at the beaches, know that one or more police officers came in handy.
The Police Chief has been receiving ten cents per mile for the use of his car. For this police work, this is a very rea- sonable rate. For the year 1953, this amounted to $819.71, which, of course was for only part time use. Under Article 16, we are asking for the purchase of a Police Cruiser. The Town has been made the following proposition : After the first pur- chase of a car, the Town will be furnished a new car at the end of the year for $1,000.00. For this $1,000.00 the Town will receive, besides a new car, all gas, oil, servicing and minor repairs for the first 20,000 miles. After 20,000 miles, the Town will pay at the rate of five cents per mile for these services. Don't you think that this sounds like a good prop- osition ?
The Police budget calls for $5,500.00 for the year 1954. Whether you have a part time or full time officer, it appears that it will cost this amount to carry on the police work for the year.
After being in the talking stage for two or three years, the Eastham Vacationers Guide Book became a reality. Much favorable comment was heard on this booklet. The commit- tee worked very hard to accomplish so much in two weeks-
8
Many did not believe that it could be done in two months time. Much of the credit should go to Mrs. Verena Daley. Mrs. Mildred Cummings and Mr. Marston Daley, who were not members of the committee, also deserve credit for the success of the booklet. In two weeks time, over $1300.00 was collected, and 10,000 booklets were ordered for later dis- tribution.
Under Article 20, $2,500.00 is being requested as the Town's share of highway work under Chapter 90. The pro- ject in mind for this year is Doane Road, which leads to the Coast Guard Station.
The curves to the south of Boat Meadow Bridge are still bothersome, and the School Bus drivers' opinions will verify this. Under Article 38, $1,000.00 is being requested to make these curves more passable. We do not recommend this as the proper solution to this problem.
As the Town of Eastham has won honorable mention for it's Town Report in the past, we are endeavoring to im- prove that record by winning one of the prizes for towns under 1,000 persons. The cover on this report was designed by Mr. Harold Durant White of North Eastham. If the art students in the upper grades and high school should care to submit a cover design for the 1954 Town Report, the Select- men will be most happy to appoint a committee to adjudge them, and the one chosen will be used.
The Selectmen wish to take this opportunity to thank all departments and committees for their co-operation this past year.
Respectfully submitted,
MAURICE W. WILEY, Chairman LUTHER P. SMITH BERNARD C. COLLINS
