REPORT - ANNUAL TOWN MEETING
Article 14. A motion was made, seconded and voted to ac- cept the Report and Recommendation of the Planning Board, to wit:
"Regarding a public works supervisor; at some future date it might be advantageous in the interests of efficiency and economy to have a public works department, but at present we recommend that the Town continue with a Highway Surveyor and a Tree Warden.
"We recommend that the Town acquire an adequate amount of land for the storage of equipment of all departments that may require storage space and suitable for the erection of a garage and shed space.
"We recommend that Town-owned land, particularly land now partially used by the Town Dump be given careful consider- ation as a suitable location. We do not recommend the River, Dover and West Street location, this being inadequate in area. We recommend that any site chosen be shielded from view from the highway as much as possible. Materials used by the Water De- partment can best be stored on land under the control of the Water Department, but we recommend that provision be made for trucks and mobile equipment of the Water Department to be stored with other Town mobile equipment.
"It is the opinion of the Planning Board that the actual loca- tion, the size and the type of building can best be worked out by a special committee. Therefore, we recommend that a committee of five be appointed by the Selectmen, one to be the Highway Surveyor, one the Tree Warden, one from the Planning Board and two other persons,-not elected Town officials-qualified to serve.
Respectfully submitted,
RALPH H. COLEMAN, Chairman GEORGE E. JOSEPH JOSEPH P. PARADIS FREDERICK C. TRUELOVE GILMAN O. WALES

A motion was made, seconded and voted to in- struct the Selectmen to appoint a committee of five to select an appropriate site and to study the type of building needed for the storage of Town equipment, one to be from the Planning Board, the Highway Surveyor, the Tree Warden and two to be picked by the Selectmen and raise and appropriate the sum of $100 to be
