The Park and Recreation Department Study Committee
The Park and Recreation Department Study Committee has to date received completed questionnaires from 18 of the 23 towns to whom we wrote for information on how they handled their recreational fa- cilities. We asked them what department or committee maintained their grounds and equipment. We asked for the number of Parks and acreage; for the number of playgrounds and their acreage; was there a supervised playground program and how much was the annual money appropriation. These and many other questions were answered by the 18 towns that replied. Their answers have been condensed to a three page chart for easy reference by the committee. One such questionaire has been completed by our own Public Works Department for the pur- pose of comparison.
Much detail work still remains to be done before we can properly present a complete report together with our recommendations for your consideration.
20
We therefore ask that you consider this as a report of progress and grant us further time to complete our study.
Respectfully submitted,

On motion of Gilbert M. Lothrop it was voted that the report be accepted as a report of progress.
ARTICLE 2. The following report was read by Harold D. Kilgore, Jr. Request for Authority - Board of Public Works Water Adequacy Study
The Board of Public Works requests authority from the Town Meet- ing to negotiate with the Federal Government Agencies to obtain funds for the purpose of obtaining Consulting Engineering services, surveys and plans for the study of the Town water supply and water distribution system, to determine, if possible, the adequacy of the present Town water supply and the future needs of the Town in respect thereto.
Studies concerning the source of the Town of Reading Water Supply and possible effects of the Ipswich River Study project thereon have been underway by the Waterways Division of the State Department of Public Works for nearly two years, and their report, which is expected in the near future, is of vital import to the Town of Reading.
Field tests by the U.S. Geological Survey, including borings, seis- mographic investigations, and long-term gauge readings of ground water levels have been and are being accomplished in this survey.
It is estimated that the normal growth of the Town alone will result in water usage of 508,000,000 gallons per year by 1959, or 1.4 Million Gallons per day. Increased industrial usage of water would over-tax the existing water collection and distribution system, and could well result in a serious condition for the Town.
The Board of Public Works therefore requests that authority be voted by the Town Meeting to negotiate with Federal Government agencies to obtain funds for the purposes defined in this report.
On motion of Lawrence Drew it was voted that the report be ac- cepted and placed on file.

ARTICLE 3. On motion of Robert E.

ARTICLE 3. On motion of Harold D. Kilgore, Jr. it was voted that the Board of Public Works be and they hereby are instructed to nego- tiate with the Federal Government for funds for the purpose of studying the adequacy of the Town water supply, such funds to be obtained upon such terms and conditions as the said Board of Public Works may determine.
