Chairman Ferguson, Messrs. Ross, Potter and Giroux were present. The Clerk and the Supt. of Public Works were also present. The Board discussed budgets for 1937 as follows: ask for additional money in the fall if it is needed. Mr. Ross suggested that the Labor item be broken down and the amount required for services and regular mainten- ance work divided. The sum of $500: was requested for Water Maintenance. The sum of 1725. was requested, and Mr. Raymond said that this, plus $834. requested on Sewer Maintenance made a total of $2559. being requested for the salary of the Supt. This figure was based on paying Mr. Joseph A; Ross $40. per week until March lst and $50* a week from March lst through the balance of the year. The sum of $1540, was requested for a draftsman. Mr. Raymond said this was figured on paying a draftsman $27.50 a week from the first of the year until April lst and $30.00 per week from April 1st. He said he was not sure as to whether or not Harrington would be the draftsman but he did think it necessary to employ a full time man ' in this capacity inasmuch as Mr. Ross has no assistant. The sum of $1350. was asked for salaries of clerks and this plus $313. requested on Sewer Maintenance, made a total of $1663. Mr. Reymond said that this amount was Water arrived at upon computing Miss Harvey's salary at $16. Maintenance per week until April lst and $19. per week from April Account 1st; Miss Hayes' salary at the present rate of $12. per week until April lst and $13. per week from April lst on. The slam of $750. was requested for Office Supplies and Postage. Mr. Ross suggested that Mr. Raymond check to see if the water bills for the year had been ordered. The sum of $15,000. was requested for Labor. The Chairman said he would like Mr. Raymond to advise the Board as to the number of men he thought it necessary to employ regularly for maintenance work. Mr. Raymond saidlthat he had endeavored to determine the relativity of money spent and maintenance work done by the Water Department in the past five years, but could not establish any relation. He said that it would be possible to do this only upon digging out the work done. He said it was purely a guess as to the amount of money that would be needed as the amount of work to be done will be deter- mined by the number of services to be installed, forzen services to be repaired, etc., and he thought it best to ask for this amount of money at the Annual Meeting and ask for additional money in the fall if it is needed. Mr. Ross suggested that the Labor item be broken down and the amount required for services and regular mainten- ance work divided. The sum of $500: was requested for 200 The sum o 800. was requested for Labor as com- ared with $1800. appropriated in 1936. The sum of 2883.87 was spent up to December 1st, 1936, but this year it was necessary to do extra flushing after the x Hydrants. Mr. Raymond said that no new hydrants were ' purchased in 1936 although there was an appropriation of $1200. to cover this item but all the hydrants were taken out of stock which accounted for the reduction in the amount of money requested for 1937. The Pipes and Fittings and Meters and Repair Parts items were increased on account of the estimated increase in build- ' ing in 1937. The sum of $2200. was requested for Equip- ;Lent and Repairs, an'iAcrease of $700* over last year. Mr. Raymond said that in 1936 a considerable amount of equipment repairing was done and char ged to the Public Works Labor and Materials appropriation. He said that next year it would be necessary to overhaul both compress- ors. Mr. Ross asked if it would not be right for the Public Works Labor and Materlals appropriation to stand the expense of repairing the two compressors,'and Mr. Raymond that perhaps the cost of repairing one .said compressor could be charged to that account. The sum of $10000. was requested for Trench Repairs.` This is to cover payments to be made to the Highway Department after a street has been opened up. The Highway Dept* charges the Water Dept. for trench repairs and the Water Dept. in turn charges the owner. Mr. Ross said that he thought the owner should pay the cost of repair- ing the pavement only to the middle of the street as this was the only fair method. The Chairman requested ' Mr. Raymond to look into the matter of charging the abutter for repairing the street pavement. The sum of $1,000. was requested for W.C., P.L. and automobile insurance. The Chairman requested Mr. Raymond to split up this item showing the amount of money needed for each kind of insurance. Mr. Raymond said that this amount paid for insurance on water construction jobs and he thought that that insurance should be included in the appropriation for Insurance and not in the Water Maintenance appropriation. There were no other questions on the budget. Sewer Maintenance. The sum o 800. was requested for Labor as com- ared with $1800. appropriated in 1936. The sum of 2883.87 was spent up to December 1st, 1936, but this year it was necessary to do extra flushing after the flood. The Chairman asked why the trunk line sewer repair work between Mass. Ave. and Vine Brook Road Sewer should not be included in this appropriation. He said Maintenance. *hat the work was being done to maintain the present trunk line sewer. Mr. Ross suggested that it might be better to make a separate appropriation to cover this work but the Chairman thought it better to have it included in the Sewer Maintenance budget. The Board ' felt that it would be best to include the cost of this work in the Sewer Maintenance appropriation. The Chairman t hought that the labor cost for services should be set up separately, and Mr. Ross agreed with him. There were no other questions on the budget. Water Maintenance Replacements. The sum of §1500. was requested and Mr. Raymond stated that this was for the replacement of old hydrants, old meters, etc. The Chairman requested Mr. Raymond to submit a list of old hydrants and meters that should be replaced. He said that most of the hydrants taken care of under this budget would be replaced if the water construction program that he was requesting went through. He said that he thought some of the labor that was spert repairing meters and hydrants this year should have been charged to this account. Street Signs. Me amount of money requested under this budget was $2200. Mr. Raymond said that Mr. Paxton said that since the first estimate of the budgetfor 1937 was made up, It was decided that it would be necessary to erect a "Private Way" sign on all unaccepted streets leading from accepted ways. This means that it will be necessary to put.up approximately 150 wooden "Private Way" signs costing $8.00 each. Mr. Paxton deemed it advisable to start a street sign program and erect a standard sign on all accepted streets. The total cost of erecting thirty signs at accepted streets intersecting Mass. Ave. from the Arlington line to Marrett Road would be $600.00. $400. is needed for the usual work of repairing signs and posts and replacing those which may be broken during the year. Curbing. -- The sum of $2,000. was requested for curbing. Mr. Paxton anticipates installing curbing from the Arlington Line to Charles Street on the northerly side of Mass. Avenue a distance of approximately 1100 feet and on the southerly side from the Arlington line to Taft Avenue a distance of approximately 500 feet. He recommended that the appropriation be not limited to any one location, however. Mr. Paxton said that if the State W.P.A. continued as expected, sidewalks and curbing would be constructed on Mass. Ave., Waltham Street, Woburn Street and Bedford Street. It would be to the Townes advantage to have the appropriation free to install curbing in other locations or to supplement the State's work on these streets. Highwaz Maintenance. ' T e sum of'MO0. was requested for salary of the Superintendent. This amount was figured on increasing his salary from $40. to 045. on April 1st for the bal- ance of the year. $1200. was asked for the salary of a Water Maintenen ce Replacements Street Signs. Curbing. 202 the Ass t. Supt: aad this -was figured on increasing his salary fm m $27.50 to $30. per week beginning April lat. Highway The sum of $1200. was requested for the salary of the Maintenance. Consulting Supt. $832. was reap ested for the salary of the clerk and this was figured on paying her $16, per week beginnin January 1st, 1937. This amount would be decreased by 948.00 if the increase in salary was not allowed until April lat. The total amount of money requested in this appropriation minus the salaries was $55,078. Mr. Raymond said that this estimate was worlmd up on the basis of the Highway construction work re- quested for 1937 on a supplementary list. The Chairman remarked that there was nothing -much that the Board could do on this budget until the Highway construction program for 1937 had been gone over and decided upon. Parks and PliyErounds. T e request for the salary of the Superintendent was the same as last year, $1700, $416. was requested for the Clerk, this being one-half of her salary at the rate of t16. per week from January lat. The sum of 075. was requested for the Telephone installed in the Suptts. home. Mr. Ross asked if it was more important that the Supt, of the Park Division have a telephone than the Supt. of the Highway Division. It was decided to discuss this matter further at a subsequent meeting. The sum of $300. was requested for the Supt1s, car . allowance. Last year Mr. Garrity was allowed gasoline and oil and had the privilege of having minor repairs made at the Public Works Building. Mr. Raymond said that Mr. Garrity figured out his expenses including the cost of the car, and he found that it cost him $.032 cents per mile to operate it and he estimated that he drove the car 15,600 miles on Town business in the past Parks and ear. He figured on that basis that it cost him Playgrounds. 1515. for his car and he actually received $204. worth of gasoline and oil, alcohol, etc. Mr. Raymond asked Mr. Garrity what he would be staisfied with and he replied that he would be satisfied with $300. Mr. Giroux requested Mr. Raymond to make up a memorandum giving the allowance being made to each Town employee using his own car. The sum of $6877. was requested for Labor. Mr. Raymond said that in 1937 much more area would have to be taken care of then heretofore. The sum of $300. was requested for an additional lawn mower. $80. was request- ed for a--gahg'm6wer and Mr. Raymond did not know whether this was to go on behind the new lawn mower or not, but he said he would look into the matter further. $5200 was requested for Sundry Equipment and Repairs and the Chairman thought that Mr. Garrity should give this in more detail. The sum of $50. was requested for flagpole repairs and Mr. Raymond said that he did not know which 1 u poles needed repairing but he thought it was merely a question of painting them all. The sum of $170. was re-..* quested for Team, Tractor Hire and Express. Mr. Raymond said that Mr. Garrity would like to buy a tractor instead of hiring one inasmuch as there are so many skating areas to be taken care of now. Mr. Raymond said that the item of $40. requested for Printing was for getting out notices, programs, tickets, etc. $60. was requested for Bulbs and Light for the Minute -Man Statue on the Common. Mr. Raymond said that this year this expense was charged to Unclassified but the Town Accountant thought it should rightfully be charged to this appropriation. The sum of 0189. was requested for Light and Mr. Raymond was requested to find out what lighting this covered. The sum of $1790. was requested for Instructors and Mr. Raymond said that this allowed for an additional instructor at East Lex- ington. Mr. Garrity requested $80. for the hire of a barn at North Lexington for the storage of tools. Mr. Raymond said that he wanted to use a barn rather than the basement of the Parker School. It was decided to discuss this budget with the Supt. of the Park Division, Moth Department. The item o $1567. for Labor was questioned by the Board. Mr. Raymond said that this was increased because there are so many gypsy moths and if the Town was going to attempt to curtail them at all it is absolutely necessary to spend more money for labor. $600, was requested for a power sprayer and Mr. Raymond said that another sprayer was needed in order to cover the ground in the short time they have to do the work. Mr. R W - mond said that this would give the Department two sprayers but Mr. Ross said he thought that there were three sprayers. The meeting adjourned at 5:45 P.M.

Mr. Giroux moved that Mr. Raymond be authorized to purchase motor oil Yh ere, as and how he sees fit. Mr. Potter seconded the motion and it was so voted. Mr. Raymond informed the Board that he found the Lights in lighting in front of the High School very poor and he front of thought that it showed up more on account of the lighting High School in front of the Town Office Buildings.

The Chairman suggested that he discuss'the matter with the Edison Co. and get an estimate on the cost of improving the lighting and he agreed to do this. Mr. Raymond informed the Board that he had settled �Roabhe and James Roache's claim for $110. which p=ays over 77 hours Kenego claims. labor at $1.30 per hour and Charles Kenego's claim for - $21.06 which pays for 18 hours at $1.17.

Letter was received from John F. Daly of 54 Forest Street stating that he did have a definite suggestion as to the location of the poles on Blossom Street.

Blossom Sty Mr. Daly and Whitney Smith, his nephew, appeared before the Board. The Chairman told Mr. Daly he did not think that anybody had a right to say where the poles s hould be erected but that anybody would have the right -to say where they would like to have them erected. Mr. Giroux asked Mr. Daly where he would like to have the poles erected. Mr. Daly said that he always thought that the poles would be erected on the other side of t1B street. He said that as the poles were now located it would be necessary to habe the wires at an angle to bring them to the Peterson house but if the poles were on the other side of the street, the wires would be in a strailght line. The Chairman told Mr. Daly that the matter would again be talked over with Mr. Busby and the matter of moving the poles to the other side of the street would be discussed. He retired.

He said that re car when he received a salary of $2800. per year, he also allowance received $200, per year for the use of his car. His salary was increased to $3,000, and the allowance for the car was taken away. When the reduction in salaries 206 Amplifying system. was made, he was cut to $50 per week and did not receive anything for his car. He uses his car on Town work from 2500 to 3000 miles each year and he thought that he should be -allowed $200, for the use of it. The Chairman said that he thought the Board of Assessors should decide what Mr. Spencer should .be paid and they should make a recommendation to the Board. He retired. -Mr. Paul Mooney and Mr. Roland Garmon appeared be- fore the Board relative to the purchase of an amplifying system for the Town. Mr. Garmon said that Mr. Garrity was very much interested in the equipment for Park purposes. Mr. Mooney said that he had in mind.a semi- portable amplifying system which was laid out by the engineers in the R.C. A. office. It will cover the Common and the Playground and also can be moved into the Cary Memorial Hall, Mr. Mooney said that with two speaker baffles it will fill -the hall perfectly and will also fill in the dead spots. The equipment would include five projectors which would be grouped above the speaker at the Common, two in the center and three toward the street. The whole system is built up of units which can be added to with standard equipment. There is nothing that can become obsolete.. The speakers can be moved from one place to another and when the equipment is to be used in the hall, the racks can be moved in. Two 20 watt amplifyers would be used outside and one 20 watt amplifyer would be used inside. The Company would guarantee absolutely the best possible.results and if desired, would demonstrate the equipment, The total cost of the equipment suggested is 1147, and this covers the necessary permanent fixtures for indoor and outdoor use. Mr. Mooney said that he had a phonograph turn- table which he had been using and he would install it in the Hall so that records could be played. The price quoted includes two megaphones and the speaker's rack to be moved with the speaker. Mr. Mooney stated that it would be necessary to have a. man experienced in radio to run the amplifying system and it would probably cost $10. each time, which would include -supervising the erection and taking down of the equipment. Mr. Mooney lives on Grant Street, Lexington, The Chairman stated that there was nothing the Board could do on the matter at the present time and suggested that Mr. Mooney write a letter to the.Board giving all the information and the cost of the equipment suggested and Mr. Mooney agreed to do this. They retired. Mr. Peter Welsh of Hayes Lane appeared before the Mr. Welsh Board. He said that he wanted some assurance that he re Hayes could get in and out this winter. He said that the Lane. water had washed down from Fletcher Avenue onto haves Lane and he was afraid that the Town would not plow the Lane on account of the washout. He said that there was a pitch to the road of almost 45 degrees. The Chairman told him that Mr. Raymond would be r� fl 1 instructed to go down and look into the matter and make a report and recommendation to the Board, and he retired, Notice was received from the Town Accountant stating that the Police Department Salaries Account would be in- sufficient to cover the payments for payrolls for the year by the sum of $89.51. Mr. Russell said he assumed that this was due either to the fact that the extra day in 1936 was not taken into consideration or else the rate increase applying to some of the patrolmen was not proper- ly computed. Mr. Giroux moved that the Appropriation Committee be requested to transfer the sum of 89.51 from the Reserve Fund to the Police Dept. appropriation to cover this shortage. Mr. Potter sedonded the motion and it was so voted. 207 Police Dept. Shortage. Notice was receised from the Town Accountant stating that the appropriation for Highway Construction, Pleas- Shortage - ant and Watertown Streets, would be short by $160.01.

The Chairman stated that there was a balance of approximately $10000 in the Reserve Fund. F. K. Johnson's mechanic told him that the Police car was dangerous to operate and that it would cost more money to fix it than it was worth. The Chairman suggested that the Board ask the Appropriation Committee to transfer sufficient funds from the Reserve Fund to buy a new car. Mr, Giroux moved that the Appropriation Committee be requested to transfer sufficient funds to the Police Department appropriation to cover the purchase of a new car, it being understood that an allowance be made on the old car. Mr. Potter seconded the motion and it was so voted, Letter was received from the Town.
