Public Schools


It is apparent from this summary that the largest increase is for the support of our local schools, whereas the Regional School


111


assessment to Wilbraham shows a very slight change from last year. This increase in the local school budget is due primarily to the increase in the teachers salaries category. Because of the rapid increase in our school population, this budget reflects the addition of 6 more teachers as well as the annual increment which each teacher receives automatically under the teacher salary schedule. Also affecting this appropriation is that available Fed- eral funds to apply toward the money needs of our school system are down $37,000 from the amount available last year. It is our feeling that these increases are necessary and unavoidable.


General Government


The next largest increase is the cost of general government. This change is due primarily to the establishment of a Town Engineer- ing Department. This department will fill a growing need for engineering services for many town departments; thus eliminat- ing much of our use of outside engineers and permitting the per- formance of many functions in this area which have been by- passed but which should be carried out as soon as possible.


Public Safety


This increase results from the need for one additional man in the Police Department plus additional clerical help. It is felt that these additions are warranted.


Recreation and Celebrations


This increase is due to the request for the establishment of a new Teen-Age Center and the operation by the town of the Little League Program. The baseball diamonds must be regraded in connection with the Little League Program. All of these re- quests were studied and found to be desirable.


Unclassified


This increase results from the vote on the 1965 ballot to install a group life, health, accident insurance program for all Town employees. This is a necessary fringe benefit which these people are certainly entitled to have provided by the town.


Special Articles


The $150,000 increase in requested appropriations in this cate- gory is due primarily to the immediate need for the reconstruction of Soule and Tinkham Roads. Because of the planned 1966


112


.


water main and drainage construction, to defer the necessary work on these roads would be both costly and create hazardous road conditions. By doing this work this year, we will avoid the necessity of doing temporary construction in 1966 and then tear- ing up this temporary construction during 1967; therefore, we recommend borrowing $100,000 of the total appropriation for one year. This will result in spreading the cost over two tax years but will eliminate the duplication of work, thus resulting in cost savings and maximum efficiency.


Once again we ask for your support of the article to add $100,000 to our stabilization fund. This has proven over the years to be sound financing and has saved many thousands of dollars in interest by allowing us to finance school construction over a five-year period rather than twenty.


Contributing to the financial problems of all communities in the State of Massachusetts is the failure of our State Legislature to pass a tax bill or a state budget during 1965. The result for Wilbraham has been a decrease of $75,400 in available funds. This sum had been allotted by the Commonwealth for payment to us during 1965. We have had assurance that these funds will be paid during 1966, but this cannot correct the 1965 available funds picture.


If the recommendations of the Finance Committee are accepted at the March Annual Town Meeting, we feel that we can hold the tax rate to a modest increase.
