Report of the Planning Board


YEAR ENDING, DECEMBER 31, 1932


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


The Planning Board has held five regular meetings during the year for the purpose of carrying on the work.


The Board has had in mind the depressing times and has been reluctant in acting on any recommenda- tions that might add to the town expense.


The Board has heard suggestions from a number of our citizens in regard to new street layouts for the bet- terment of the town and for future growth.


One important recommendation, which the Board highly favors, is the procuring of adequate ground for the dumping of refuse and would welcome any sugges- tions in regard to this important matter. January 3, 1933.
