Many individual lots and/or small subdivision plans where the property abutted on public town ways were examined, and endorsed as not requiring Board of Survey approval under the Subdivision Control Law, Chapter 41, General Laws, for filing in the Registry of Deeds and Land Court.
Under the Subdivision Control Law, so-called, no Registry of Deeds in the Commonwealth will accept for registration any plan not so en- dorsed, provided the municipality where the land is situated has ac- cepted the Subdivision Control Act.
Recommendations
With the rapid growth of the Town of Reading, many dwelling houses are being constructed on the less desirable building sites, and for the most part in outlying sections of the Town, often in low, swampy areas. This trend naturally results in demands for sanitary sewage extensions, storm water drainage intallations, piping of open water courses, etc. These demands are, in the home-owners estimation, justi- fiable and of extreme personal importance. Unfortunately, the back- log of petition for sewer and drain extensions far exceed the funds available in the yearly budget for this type of work.
The Municipal Garage should be added to in the near future for proper housing and maintenance of the Department's equipment and supplies.
In closing this report I wish to thank the Board of Public Works for their cooperation, the members of the department for their efficient work, and other town departments and citizens who have cooperated with and assisted this department.
Respectfully submitted,
JAMES T. PUTNAM, Superintendent
