Rules and Regulations of the Board were changed January 11, 1955. Subdividers are now required to construct all proposed streets to the finished grade with the top twelve inches consisting of well compacted gravel treated with two coats of oil.


In its 1954 report, the Planning Board reported that 1999 lots in 31 subdivisions had been submitted to the Board in preliminary


74


or final form. This year, an additional 20 subdivisions containing 836 lots were submitted to the Board. They are as follows:


Ames Lake Estates 38 Lots


Burtt Village 69 Lots


Campbell Village 27 Lots


Cooney Road 20 Lots


Galilean Acres


30 Lots


Gray Acres


50 Lots


Hinton Heights 15 Lots


John V. Sullivan Plan


10 Lots

37 Lots

85 Lots


Trull Brook Manor


61 Lots


Wellfield Park


21 Lots


Wilson Park


17 Lots


The lots and subdivisions listed above do not include the planned subdivisions of the Ames Estate which was given so much publicity recently, or lots approved along accepted streets. It is well known that the Ames estate will mean approximately 1800 mores homes for Tewksbury.


A street map authorized under Article 8 at a special town meeting March 20, 1955 will be ready for sale early in March. Although the town has less than 200 accepted streets the map will index close to 600, many of which are taken from plans recorded before the Planning Board was created.


Resignation of Thomas K. Mckenzie was accepted with regrets, and the vacancy was filled by Roger Lafreniere by a vote taken at a joint meeting of the Planning Board and the Board of Selectmen.

BOARD OF HEALTH REPORT FOR 1955


The Board of Health has had a very busy year in 1955. As the town grows, so do the problems. In the past, Board of Health business has been sandwiched between Selectmen and Welfare business. There has been a lack of coordination between the Board of Health and School Health.


This year the Board of Health has included in its budget, a sum of money for its members and it is expected that a definite night will be set aside to transact Board of Health business.


Due to numerous inquires and complaints, the Board of Health is sponsoring an article in the warrant, and if voted, will set up a program for the eradication and control of the mosquito. Your chairman has investigated the possibility of being included in a project with State assistance, but finds that it is an impossibility at the present time. If, and when it becomes possible for the town to join a mosquito control project, then citizens will be given the opportunity to take advantage of its possibilities.


The Board of Health has felt for some time that the town was not progressing as fast as it should in its plumbing requirements for new building. We contemplate in the very near future, adopting the Minimum State Standards as a code of requirements for new construction and the appointment of a plumbing inspector to enforce the same.


Another problem that confronts the board and the town, is the matter of providing some place where people can dump rubbish that is beyond the scope of paid collections. I have just finished talking to the Chairman of the Board of Health in Billerica and they are very receptive to the idea of Tewksbury sharing the cost of maintenance and using their dump on Pond Street. If the details of this arrangement can be worked out by Town Meeting time, you will be apprised of them at that time.


Further details of Board of Health activities will be found in the report of its agent, Dr. Jose Ruisanchez.


Respectfully submitted, VICTOR N. CLUFF Board of Health

TOWN COUNSEL


-


John D. Sullivan, Chairman Board of Selectmen


Town Hall, Tewksbury, Mass.


Gentlemen:


I hereby respectfully submit my report as Town Counsel for the year ending December 31, 1955.


The Matter of Barton vs. Kane, which was settled for $1,100.00 after appeal to the Supreme Judicial Court has been held subject to the acceptance of Chap. 41, sec. 100A. It is interesting to know that towns may pay such judgments by general authority as to Police or Fire Department operators of motor vehicles, but not as to other departments unless the above statute has been accepted by the voters. An article to determine the voters wishes in this con- nection has been inserted in the warrant for action at the annual meeting.


The town received a settlement in full for the property damage to its fire truck amounting to $282.79 as the result of the collision of April 21, 1954 at Salem Road and Pond Street. As in all these cases the amount recovered is deposited to the free cash account and the necessary funds to repair the damage must be transferred by the finance committee to an active account of the Department in question.


The Petition of the Creditors of Charles L. Haas, Inc., is still pending in the Superior Court and in all probability will so con- tinue for some time.


Many of the New Certificates have been received by your Treasurer as a result of the Decree of the Land Court, affecting the lots on the Riverview Plan. The return to taxable property of the land acquired through foreclosures of this nature and other process is a never ending procedure.


There has also been inserted in the warrant for the considera- tion of the voters, an article calling for the appropriation of $100.00 to settle a claim arising from a collision between a Police Car and one Maclaren on Main St. A claim for the Town has likewise been filed against the insurance company for property damage.


I have attempted to be available to the town officers when requested and furnish them the best advice possible. Many times, the negative answer although disagreeable, is the safest as experi- ence proves.


Very respectfully yours, WARREN W. ALLGROVE Town Counsel

REGISTRARS OF VOTERS


The required public sessions for registration of voters were held at the Town Hall and Shawsheen School prior to the annual town meeting and election.


At the annual meeting in June voting lists were revised by striking off names of those who had moved from town, changed their names through marriage and deceased persons. Also special meetings were held when necessary during the year. 195 names were removed during the year.


The State Census was taken during January and February in conjunction with the annual street listing of persons twenty years old and over. Official census was found to be 10,848. Of this figure about 1,600 were patients at the State Hospital.


Beginning with 1955 the state laws required the Board of Registrars to list names of all dog owners and prepare list for the dog officer.


In compliance to a petition for recount of votes cast for the office of Board of Selectmen, Board of Public Welfare for one year, a recount was held at the town hall on March 7th. Candidates for this office were Thomas A. Abbott, Phillip D. Bradanick, John H. Hart, Rene J. Paquette and William H. Tenney. The original count was not changed and John H. Hart was declared elected.


At the close of registration on February 16, 1956 check list showed 2935 voters in Precinct 1, 1230 voters in Precinct 2; a total of 4165 voters as compared to 3575 a year ago; an increase of 590 voters.

SELECTMEN'S REPORT


In the year 1955, a precedent was set in one form of town government. For the first time since the incorporation of the Town of Tewksbury in 1734, there were five members on the Board of Selectmen. All member are vitally interested in constructive ideas any resident may have to offer that might help to solve the in- creasing problems arising daily from the extraordinary growth of the town. Tewksbury has improved greatly along lines of con- veniences offered to home owners, both commercial and recrea- tional.


Several projects have been completed during the past year in the Town Hall. A public address sysytem has been installed in order that the upper and lower halls may be utilized in case of overflow crowds at any type of meeting.


A new telephone system has been installed in the hall and at present, there are two lines available for incoming and outgoing calls. The numbers are UL 1-2342 and UL 1-7367.


A parking lot has been constructed on the side of the Town Hall. A great many more cars may be accomodated than was the case in the past. Lights have also been installed to illuminate the Town Hall driveway.


The board held a public meeting during the year, with speakers cn "Capital Outlay Planning." There is an article in the warrant concerning this. If so voted, the board hopes that a great amount of money will eventually be saved, by what is commonly known as central purchasing.


Another convenience is being contemplated for the town in the form of ambulance service, paid for by the town, and available to any resident. There is also an article in the warrant to this effect.


Fees for liquor licenses remained the same, with the exception of an increase for the license to sell beer and wine for one day only. The fee for this license was increased from $5.00 to $50.00, resulting in a larger total revenue for the year.


The board is considering the possibility of town-owned parks or playgrounds. It is felt that these are sorely needed for the safety and recreation of the children.


By unanimous vote, the Board authorized Mr. Whelan to present


82


to the Finance Committee, a plan for a Standardized Budget. This plan follows recommendations of the Massachusetts Association of Town Finance Committees and provivdes for a uniform itemization of all departmental and other expenditures, a statement of esti- mated receipts and available funds and finally, a prediction on the tax rate for the current year. The success of the plan depends on the full cooperation of all officials concerned with the financial affairs of the town. All such officials have cooperated fully and it is hoped that a much clearer financial picture will be presented to the voters at the annual town meeting, than has heretofore been possible.


In conclusion, the board would like to offer its sincere appre- ciation for the cooperation of all departments, and to stress the importance of continued cooperation. It is especially necessary at this time when the problems of all departments are increasing at such a rapid pace.


Respectfully submitted, JOHN D. SULLIVAN, Chairman JOSEPH J. WHELAN VICTOR N. CLUFF GEORGE A. O'CONNELL JOHN H. HART
