In accordance with Section 1, Chapter 3, of the Town By-Laws, meetings of the Board of Regis - trars are held on the second Monday of each month for registration and the conduct of business. Under Chapter 626 of the Acts of 1958, this meeting is open to the public and the press and is so posted in the Town Hall.
Women married prior to January 1, must re-register under their marriage name. Naturalized citizens must have their naturalization papers with them when registering.
New residents are requested to notify the Board of Registrars of the date which they take resi- dence in the town. Any change of address within the town during the year should be brought to the attention of the Board so that your name will not be removed from the voting list in error.
On November 4, 1958 there were four thousand seven hundred and forty-six (4, 746) registered voters in the town.
On January 1, 1958 the census showed a total population of eleven thousand three hundred and twenty-four (11, 324) inhabitants.
Building By-Law Committee
A new building code for the Town of Wilmington, encompassing the latest methods and materials of construction, is expected to be ready for Town approval this spring. The Building By-Law Committee for the past two years, while formulating this code, has been studying codes of various municipalities through- out the country and recommendations of numerous agencies such as real estate and insurance groups, engineering committees and housing research organizations. The result is a modern, up-to-date code which vill ensure the Town of Wilmington of sound, economical construction during its future growth.

sarah d. j. carter lecture fund
A capacity audience filled the Herbert C. Barrows Auditorium on Saturday evening, November 15, when the Carter Lecture Committee presented to the people of Wilmington, Captain Irving Johnson with the travelogue of his latest around-the-world voyage on the Schooner Yankee. The program was an excellent one and was enjoyed by all who attended.
Because funds are limited and the costs of good programs so high today, the committee has felt it is wise to concentrate on quality rather than quantity in planning programs. Any suggestions for future programs that might be of interest to the townspeople will be welcome by the committee.

John Tobey, Planning Board Chairman, explains Capital Outlay Program to town's Department Heads
The Planning Board activity for 1958 was considerable and is summarized below according to principal categories.
I. General Planning
In our "General Plan Report" of 1957 it was reported that additional elements of planning were needed in order to complete a comprehensive General Plan. Three of these missing elements were undertaken by the Planning Board this year. We engaged the services of the Economic Development Associates, Inc. to assist us in this endeavor.
Sponsored by the Board of Selectmen, Finance Committee, and Town Manager, the Planning Board undertook to prepare for the town a Capital Improvement Program. This report is to be ready at the next annual town meeting where it will be presented to the town as a guide for all future capital expenditures.
Detailed programs of recreation and school plant developme it were undertaken also. Final reports will be presented to the town in 1959.

Such restrictions were placed on one previously approved sub-division during the year 1958, and two restrictions were removed.
