The Water Commissioners respectfully call your attention to one item which was unforeseen at the time of our last annual town meeting. The Town of Ludlow, in searching for the possibility of increasing their revenue, found through a con- ference with Mr. Long, Director of Taxation, that it would be possible to tax the Town of Wilbraham, for the water pipe laid in their streets and owned by the Town of Wilbraham. Therefore, they assessed us $360.00 in taxes which was paid from the water department appropriation. This unexpected bill caused the appropriation to be short that amount and a transfer was granted from the Reserve Fund to offset it. To meet this addi- tional yearly assessment, the department respectfully requests an appropriation of $4,000.00 for the year 1941.
The department has been called upon to make twenty-six house installations during the year. These installations have been due to the extension of the mains and new houses being built.
The extension of the 6-inch main on Stony Hill Road has been completed but due to the work being finished after the frost was in the ground, there will be a few bills to be paid during the year 1941 owing to the settling of the ground.
Work was started again on the 8-inch extension on Spring- field Street with the aid of the Works Progress Administration and will be carried on during the next few months.
The following financial report is rendered that you may know where and how your appropriation has been spent.
