Report of the Mayor
To the Citizens and Tax-payers of the City of Rutland, Vt .:
I have the honor to submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1913.
FINANCIAL.
The Grand List of the City for 1913 was increased to $106,714.10 as against $95,508.72 for the year 1912. The tax rate was fixed at $1.70, which made an in- crease of about $19,000.00 in the amount available for general expenses.
Of this amount the schools by law received $5,600 in additional appropriations; the State imposed an additional state-tax of 10 per cent on the Grand List of 1913, of which 5 per cent, $5,335, was paid in 1913; the regular state and county taxes exceeded the taxes of the previous year by $1,060; and there was brought over from 1912 an unpaid temporary loan warrant of $7,000.00. The total of these increases exceeded the extra tax money received from the increased Grand List.
We are carrying forward to 1914 an unpaid tem- porary loan warrant of $10,000.00 an increase of $3,000.00 over last year. This is accounted for by the increased expense in maintaining bridges, amounting to about $1.200.00; the payment of the Creed and
23
CITY OF RUTLAND
Burton judgment, which with the costs amounted ro about $1,500.00; and the large expense in the Health Officer's Department, the one item of police quaran- tine alone being nearly $1,000.00.
At our annual meeting it was voted to issue $15,- 000. 00 in bonds for additions and repairs to the Lincoln Boulevard School Building. $13,000.00 of these bonds have been sold at par to the Sinking Fund Commis- sioners of the City of Rutland, and the remaining $2,000.00 will be sold as soon as the funds are needed.
Our net bonded debt on December 31st, 1912 was $400,825.28 and on December 31st, 1913, it was $394,- 513.58, showing a decrease of $6,311.70.
The appropriation and net amount earned by the Sinking Fund increased the amount in the fund by $19,311.70, this amount less the $13,000.00 in bonds sold, show how the decrease was made.
The report of the City Treasurer shows in detail the financial transactions during the year.
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS.
The old sewer coming from Church street through Edsonville under the stores on Center Street and Mer- chants Row, crossing Merchants Row and connecting with the West street sewer on West street about op- posite Memorial hall is in a very bad state of repair on the West side of Merchants Row and must soon be thoroughly repaired or entirely replaced, as upon in- vestigation conditions make necessary. In its present condition it is a menace to the public health and safety and a serious interference with the best use of property along its line.
24
ANNUAL REPORT
Spellman Terrace, Summer street and that portion of Granger street between River street and Franklin street should be macadamized and provision made for the doing of such work the coming season.
The department has been to considerable pains to secure a thorough analysis of the material hereto- fore used in the construction of permanent highways and has also caused to be made an analysis of several different samples of stone from different ledges in this vicinity and has not as yet found a sample entirely satisfactory. It is possible that further investigation may demonstrate that economy in the expenditure of public funds for highways will compel the purchase outside the city of material for top dressing. If, upon thorough investigation, such a condition should de- velop, I would recommend that it be pursued.
DEPARTMENT OF CHARITIES AND CORREC-
TIONS.
The expenses for this department have been about the same as in previous years. I am satisfied that the financial management of that department has been good, and am satisfied from personal observation that the work of the present Overseer of the Poor, Mr. Brousseau, has been of the highest character. The Poor House I know from personal observation to be kept in a state of perfect cleanliness, and I am able also from personal observation to testify to the effi- ciency, consideration and kindness of both the Overseer of the Poor and Mrs. Brousseau.
Certain repairs, such as plastering and painting, etc., which will probably cost about $250, ought to be made as soon as possible on the house.
25
CITY OF RUTLAND
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY.
The work of the police and fire departments has been unusually satisfactory. Discipline and efficiency have been promoted and maintained in both the police and fire departments. Police headquarters have been enlarged and renovated. A detention room is to be established at police headquarters in order that it may not be necessary to place every person detained in the common lock-up.
It is now possible to communicate at any hour of the day or night with police headquarters by tele- phone as arrangements have been made to have an officer on duty there during the twenty-four hours.
THE CITY HOSPITAL.
The city hospital has received during the last year the usual appropriation from the city treasury, and I find that those who have been sent there at the ex- pense of the city have at all times received the same consideration as those whose means permitted of their being admitted as private patients.
Our city hospital is today a fixed institution and the benficial results obtained therefrom are of ines- timable value to our city.
THE PUBLIC LIBRARY ..
The amount appropriated by the city to the Rutland Free Library this past year was $500.00 in excess of that of the previous year.
This is an institution that appeals to all-and under the present efficient management all patrons may feel assured that it will keep abreast of the times.
26
ANNUAL REPORT
If the Memorial Hall, in which the library is now located, could be used exclusively for library pur- poses, the city would then feel obligated to keep it in proper condition. But as it is now, it is practically an unused building, except for the small space the library occupies.
In concluding my report, I wish to thank the heads of the various departments for their faithful co-opera- tion at all times.
