Ferguson, Gilcreast, Lyons, and Potter were present. The Clerk was also present. Abr. Nathan Bidwell appeared before the Board, together with representatives of all but two of the abutters of the ticberts property at 38 Adams Street. These people appeared to protest against the issuing of a permit to Mr. Arthur M. Roberts to keep poultry. Mr. Bidwell stated that all of the neighbors were represented with the exception of two; one was Mr. Clarence R. Horton, who lives on Coolidge Avenue. Mr. Horton had made the statement that if the permit were issued that he would sell his property and move. The other was Mr. Chiesa of 42 Adams Street, the owner of the property immediately adjoining the Roberts property. Mr. Bidwell presented a protest against the issuance of a permit which was signed by nine property owners. Mr. Chiesa did not sign the petition because he was Roberts' nest door neighbor and did not wish to have any trouble with him. Mr. Bidwell stated that he owned all the land from Meriam Street to Woodland Road. The neighbors were going to claim a breach of the Zoning Protest By-Law and a Nuisance if the permit were granted. The on property is in an R-1 District and should be strictly Roberts residdntial, and the business of raising poultry, selling poultry poultry and eggs, was a violation of the Zoning By-Law. yard. The Nuisance would be a nuisance of odor, noise, and injury to property. Mr. Bidwell had in mind• the fact that_ Mr. Roberts wished to add to his income, but he thought that he should use the land back of his house for his poultry rather than the land in front. He stated that under the decisio handed down by the Courts, the question of nuisance is ore value than is thought. From 1682 to 1921 it was obl gatory on the part of the Board of Health to examine premises that might become a nuisance, and if there was a nuisance, it had to be abated. However, since 1921 this action on the part of the Board has become discretionary. Mr. Bidwell felt that all of the property would be injured, and that if the permit were granted that the neighbors would no doubt ask the Town for an abatement on their taxes. In the past, Towns have been obliged to abate 25% and BB 1/3% on account of nuisances. Mr. Walter Rowse of 17 Winthrop Road stated that he owned 20,000 sq. dt. of land immediately adjoining the Roberts property, and he felt that the property would be valueless if the permit for the poultry farm were granted. He stated that he thought that there would be no objection if the chicken farm were located in the rear of the property. 526 00 co CD Mr. Harry E. Baker of the Arlington.,Five Cents Savings Bank wished to be recorded in opposition to the granging of the permit. Mr. Richard Rowse of 24 Adams Street stated that he thought it very odd that Mr. Roberts had put his henhouses as near the other houses on the street when he had plenty of land in the rear of the house. Mrs. Nathan Bidwell stated that she owned the lot opposite the Roberts property and she felt that the lot would be valueless if the permit were granted. The Board advised the people that the matter would be taken under advisement. The Board decided that they would go up to Adams Street and view the Roberts property before taking action on the petition.

However, if the out-of-town pupils were dropped the building of the new high school could not be postponed more. than two or three years. Mr. Rowse stated that he did not think that the Committee was looking far enough ahead. He felt that eventually there should be a junior high school at either end of the Town. The School Committee decided to prepare articles for the warrant for the Town Meeting to be held in July to 528 Ca) appropriate money for the purchase of the land; to proceed with the plans of appointing a Building Committee; and to appropriate money for the use of the Building Committee.
