It is known that some towns have elected to set up a single in- surance schedule for all town insurance. This is usually administered by the Selectmen. To do this would result, perhaps, in a minor saving in total cost. It would greatly simplify paper work for brokers and agents involved but it would also require the relinquishment, on the part of the several autonomous boards and departments, of their in- surance concerns to the Selectmen. In the light of the generally com- plete and business-like handling of insurance by the several boards and departments, we make no recommendation of this kind.
We express our appreciation for the cooperation we have had from the various boards and agencies of the Town.
Respectfully submitted,
HORACE ROSS, Chairman EVERETT F. OSBORNE DONALD SHEPHERD
