Parking Meters
The Board received a letter dated November I2 from the Selectmen
asking for its opinion on installation of parking meters. The Board felt
that it was not as yet sufficiently informed to present a definite
recommendation,, and that parking meters were only one aspect of the gen-
eral parking problem. It was decided to write the Selectmen to this effect.

Mr.Houdlette had received a suggestion that the new access road
to the Bedford Airport be named Bull Tavern Road because of its historical
significance. It was decided to pass this along to the Selectmen.

decided that the map and appurtenant information should be given to the
Selectmen together with an outline of the various possible procedures by
which the conditions could be remedied.
Mr.Blackwell explained the purpose of establishing census tracts.
In brief: The Town is not required to establish them. However, it may di-
vide the Town into various areas, each being more or less homogenous and
each having population of from 5,000 to 10,000. After the next census is
taken the Census Bureau will supply the Town with information based on data
taken in the various tracts.
