TOWN OF NORTH ANDOVER
Report of the Advisory Board
MARCH 15, 1947
To TIlE CITIZEN~ OF NORTH AN'DOVER:
We quote from last year's Advisory Board report: "This is your
town, it is administered by officials whom you have elected and
in whom you have thereby indicated confidence, and it is your
money which you are about to appropriate. What kind of a town
you want, whom you want to run it, and how much of your money
you want to spend, is yours to decide." Your elected officiMs
administer your affairs; we as your Advisory Board can do no
more than to advise you.
Again you are faced with a drastic increase in the cost of running
your town. Here are the condensed and essential facts (for simphc-
ity al] figures are to the nearest thousand):
Budget Appropriations
Special Articles as accepted
or recommended
Estimated
1946 1947 Increase
,9497,000 $566,000 $69,000
57,000 47,000 10,000 (Dec.)
TOTALS $554,000 $613,000 $59,000
TAX RATE $55.00 $61.00 $8.00
Every item in the Budget and every article on the warrant has
had our careful review and consideration. In our opinion, in the
recommendations presented herewith, we reflect what is to the best
interest of the town as a whole, the appropriation of funds repre-
senting proper and reasonable expenditures for the purpose in-
tended, and the utilization of those funds in a sound and economical
fashion.
$61.00 TAX RATE
Your town is a business enterprise which you own and which
you run. It differs little, if any, from the mil] where you work, the
business which you may own, or the home which you may run. As
compared with a year ago, if you work in a mill you are getting a
higher rate of pay, if you own a business it is costing you more to
run that business, if you are managing a household it is costing you
more for food, fuel, clothing, soap and all of the various neecssities
which make up the cost of running your home or family. In the
same way, it is going to cost more to run your town this year than
it did last year; exactly the same rules apply, be it individual,
business or town.
All your Advisory Board can do is to assure you that, high as it
may seem, the prospective tax of $61.00 is the price which you
have to pay, and is a fair price for operating the town in the
manner to which you are accustomed and so long as you wish to
maintain the standards which you have set. It may be said further,
that the contempla{ed wage and pay rates, and the contemplated
expenditures, are very definitely in line with other towns of like
size and character.
8300.00 PAY RAISE
This is the biggest single item presented for your'consideration
at this time. It represents a pay roll increase amounting to about
$40,000.00 or slightly less than 86.00 on the tax rate. The com-
ments appearing in the preceding paragraphs might be applied
equally as well to this matter of a pay raise as to the general dis-
cussion of the prospective tax rate. Additionally, your Board feels
that the town employees are entitled to an equality of treatment in
the matter Of working conditions, hours and wages with the treat-
ment which is being extended by industry in this and surrounding
coramunities. The $800.00 raise is in keeping with existing con-
ditions in this area, and appropriations provide for making this
raise retroactive to January 1, 1947. It means a raise of $300.00
per year for all permanent full time employees and a corresponding
proportionate increase for all other part time regular permanent
employees. Favorable action should also be considered as estab-
lishing a rate of not to exceed 90 cents per hour for temporary or
general labor on the town payroll.
Your Board would like to add that consideration was extended
to the advisability of classifying this raise, either in whole or in
part, as a cost-of-living bonus. We felt that any such action is
merely a subterfuge; we preferred to face the facts rather than to
dodge the issue. In so saying, however, your Board places itself on
record and states very emphatically that if or when economic
conditions should change, it is correspondingly prepared to face
the facts and will have no hesitation in recommending wage reduc-
tions in keeping with economic conditions as they might exist at
that time.
MEMORIAL PARK OR PLAYING FIELD
The appropriation of $~0,000.00 for a War Memorial Park or
Playing Field has occasioned considerable concern on the part of
your Advisory Board. Whether or not all or a portion of that sum
could more wisely be expended for other purposes is certainly a
debatable question. In the final analysis, however, your Advisory
Board was governed by the following considerations: first, and
regardless of expense, a real and useful memorial such as con-
templated is far preferable to a merely decorative and inanimate
object such as a monument; second, a suitable playing field with
space and facilities for the accomodation of our youth of all age
classifications, might very well prove to be a distinct asset to the
town and deserving, therefore, of serious consideration; third, the
field as contemplated and located would eventually represent a
very real asset in thc development of the comprehensive school
buikling program; and lastly, it is felt that the Permanent War
Memorial Committee, as constituted, was truly representative of
the citizens of the town as well as of the nearly one thousand vet-
erans resident in the town, and that a recommendation made by
such a committee, after due and careful consideration and delib-
eration, is entitled to the benefit of the doubt. Your Advisory
Board has accordingly extended its favorable recommendation to
the War ~,{emorial Field project.
SCHOOL BUILDING PROGRAM
The Advisory Board is distinctly in accord with and extends its
approval to all of the articles presented for consideration by the
School Building Committee. It is felt that that Committee has
presented articles in keeping with the desire and intent of the town
as expressed 0n the occasion of the Town Meeting last year and
that such articles represent a proper initial step in the orderly,
economical and ex~peditlous development of a school building
program. It is to be noted further that favorable consideration will
result in no increase in the tax rate as compared with 1946. The
a,p;propriation of $15,450.00 for the Stabilization Fund is identical
~ith the action taken at your Town Meeting last year, and is
merely a continuance of the program of regularly setting aside
each year a proportionate share of tax money for the financing of
the long range school building program.
FIRE DEPARTMENT
Over the past several years, the Fire Department has operated
on a budget of around $a6,000.00 per year. So far as your Advisory
Board was aware, the Fire Department has had an excellent
reputation, has been efficiently and economically rmv, and has
rendered splendid service to the town, thanks to the willingness and
loyalty of the department personnel. We have now been advised
by the present Board of Fire Engineers, and by virtue of Articles
39 and 43 of this year's warrant, that they now require a permanent
increase in their appropriation in the total amount of $11,700.00 a
year, an increase of around 50%. It appears to yottr Advisory
Board that any such request is unreasonable and unwarranted,
representing, as it does, a permanea~t increase in the tax rate of
around $1.60.
In fairness to the Board of Fire Engineers, it should be stated
that it was pointed out by the members of that Board that their
department is required to handle double equipment, naraely, the
fire apparatus and the ambulance; and that the only means of
assuring innnediate response in the case of either fire or accident,
is to double the staff of permanent drivers. This would mean six
drivers instead of three.
While your Advisory Board is loathe to disapprove any expendi-
tures which would make for the saving of a life or which would
assist in avoiding the destruction of property, it is certainly not
going to extend approval to any 50% increase in the appropriation
to this or any other department unless or until far more conclusive
evidence is presented than was apparent in this instance.
The Advisory Board feels that it is entirely within its rights in
insisting upon attention to and a careful review of dcpartmental
problems, this being the proper function of management, and the
presentation of complete, open and frank statements, preferably
in writing, showing thc reason and necessity for any major and
permanent appropriation increase. The Advisory Board just can-
not believe that the efficiency of the Fire Department has de-
creased to such an extent during the past year as to necessitate an
immediate appropriation increase of 50% as the only means of
correcting such a condition.
WATER AND SEWER EXTENSIONS
The town is faced witch very substantial real estate developments.
Such developments, representing normal healthy growth, are
deserving of encouragement, provi~led they represent an asset to
thc town, not a liability. Based on past practices, your Board finds
that such developments represent a very definite liability. For
every 100 new houses, it wotdd cost you about $1.00 on the tax rate
each year for the next fifteen years. Present real estate develop-
ments contemplate at least that many new houses within the next
few years.
One of the principal reasons for this unsound tax bfirden is the
fact that you are called upon to raise and appropriate large sums
of cash for water and sewer extensions. This year, for example,
around $40,000.00 is required. Your Advisory Board, therefore,
feels that it can no longer extend its approval to appropriations for
water and sewer extensions other than on a self supporting basis,
and so financed that they will not be a burden on the town.
Your Board conducted an investigation and consulted with
officials of various representative towns such as Milton, Dedham,
Belmont and Andover. In every instance, the findings of your
Board have been confirmed. It is of interest that in many of the
towns named, including our neighbor Andover, all new develop-
ments are required to assume the entire cost of water and sewer
installation.
Your Board has no desire to be unfair, nor does it wish to pen-
alize any present or prospective real estate projects. But by the
same token, it will no longer extend approval to any appropriation
which means a direct cash loss to the tax payers. Stated in the
simplest terms, it is the intent/on of your Advisory Board, from
this point on, to insist that any real estate developments within
the town must be self supporting.
In justice to all, your Board felt that it had no right to insist
upon an immediate and complete "change in rules in the middle
of a game." Therefore, for water and sewer extensions to be in-
stalled in this year 1947, your Board has merely recommended
certain changes in the rates of water guarantees and sewer assess-
ments.
For the future, aa~d starting with the year 1948, your Advisory
Board places itself on record that on articles calling for appropria-
tions for water extensions, sanitary sewer extensions, storm sewer
or surface drainage installations, either in new developments or on
unaceepted streets, it will recommend that the town assume not
more than ~5% of the cost, and that the developer, abutters or
owners post cash or bond for not less than 75% of the cost. This
would not represent any profit to the town; it would merely reflect
a fair sharing of costs and the elimination of a continuing drain on
the town's cash resources.
ENGINEERING SURVEY OF REAL ESTATE VALUATION
Article 16 is unquestionably the most important matter pre-
sented for your consideration at this time. It contemplates the
initial step in a complete, impersonal and impartial survey of the
real property witbin the town. Your Advisory Board's recom-
mendation modifies the timing to a certain extent, and distributes
the cost over a period of years, but does not affect the intent.
On the first page of this report, we make the statement that our
first consideration in connection with the various articles as pre-
sented involves the question: "Is it to the best interest of the town
as a whole?" In the case of Article 16 the answer is very definitely
Bear in mind that no criticism of our Board of Assessors is either
implied or intended. Your Advisory Board feels that you are
fortunate in being so well and so ably represented on your Board of
Assessors; and that the Assessors have done a splendid job. Your
Assessors axe not full time employees; they give freely and willingly
of their time, at very real personal sacrifice; and they have main-
tained a high standard of e~ciency considering the tools with which
they have to work. The survey contemplates placing in their
hands the kind of tools to which they are entitled and which they
should have; and we believe the Assessors axe in accord with and
would welcome the contemplated engineering survey. It is a
physical impossibility for them to do their job as they would like
to do it, other than as a survey such as contemplated provides
them with the essential information necessary.
As a measure of determining what might be expected from a
survey such as contemplated, check tests were run on about
twenty properties selected at random. The results were substan-
tially as anticipated: httle if any unidentified land and only a few
minor unrecorded building structures were disclosed; but very
substantial discrepancies and inequities were apparent as against
the valuation base now in effect. This variation can best be defined
or explained by saying that two identical houses, side by side, both
of them built in 1985 at a cost of $6000 each, should, on a present
50% valuation basis, be assessed alike at $3000; the discrepancy
cited is such that actually one of these houses might show on the
records assessed at $1~00, the other at $8600. This is not to be
considered as typical but it does indicate the ma~/mnm spread
shown by the actual check test as run. This is one of the reasons
why every citizen should have a very real interest in an engineering
survey which will provide a real basis for the proper sharing of the
heavy tax burden.
If approved, the engineering survey means that all land and
buildings in the town would be checked and recorded with the
Assessors as to size, location, type of construction, state of repair,
age, general condition, etc., and replacement cost, not as of today,
but as of whatever year the Assessors might select as a reasonable,
typical and average year. On the basis of this data, the Assessors
could then, in conjunction with appropriate policy committee
suggestions or advices, determine a basic percentage policy and
proper allowances for factors such as depreciation, location, sale-
ability, etc., thereby arriving at assessed valuations fair and just
to all.
Lastly, we doubt if the citizens of the town realize the interrela-
tionship of town and state taxes. Presumably most of the taxpayers
realize that each year we pay very substantial sums to the State.
It probably is not so generally known that each year we get back
from the State far more than we pay in to the State; and that, bar
none, the State is the largest single contributor to the support of
this town. One of the principal factors in the determination and
distribution of State funds is valuation. The Massachusetts De-
partment of Corporations and Taxation is currently operating
under the terms of legislation whose authority expires in 1950. At
that time, new enabling legislation must. be enacted. Hence we
believe that over the next three years the town would be well
advised to place its house in order and be prepared to prove its
case. And by spreading the charges over a two or three-year
period, there will be no excessive burden in any one year.
To further clarify the intent of this Article 16, it should be
pointed out that our favorable recommendation is on the basis
that (1) there is to be no infringement upon the rights and priv-
ileges of our Assessors; (~) no obligatory change in the present
basis of valuation and assessment is implied or intended; ($) no
revaluation policy is to become effective m~til the survey of the
entire town has been completed; (4) that any revaluation policy
would be a matter to be considered by the Assessors in conjunction
with or serving as members of a policy committee representative
of agriculture, industry, banking, real estate, legal and other
appropriate interests within the town.
We should like to extend our very sincere thanks to the various
officials, boards and individuals who have without exception given
so willingly of their time in connection with our deliberations, and
who have so heartily and sincerely cooperated with us.

that portion of the town bounded by Massachusetts Ave.,
Chickering Rd., thence along the line of the Airport, and
along the line of the Shawsheen River to Massachusetts
Ave. at the point of beginning.
This recommendation is in keeping with opinions ex-
pressed at joint meetings of the Board of Selectmen, the
Board of Assessors and your Advisory Board. It does not
contemplate any general or specific raising or lowering of
assessed valuations for tax rate purposes or for other reasons,
as such authority is vested solely in the hands of your Board
of Assessors. It does contemplate the elimination of many
present and evident inequities, and the placing in the hands
of your Assessors of full, co~nplete and impartial data from
which a fair and equitable distribution of the heavy tax
burden can be determined. Your Advisory Board feds that
inequities which are of no great coneena under a $20 tax
rate, should be a matter of grave concern to all tax payers
9
faced with a $55 to $60 tax rate; and your Board therefore
has favorably recommended this initial step, at a reasonable
cost, towards a just and justifiable end.
(See page 5 for detal]ed statcu, ent with respect to this
article.)
(This appropriation would n~ean about 75 cents on the
tax rate.)
ART~CLr, 17, To see if the town will vote to accept the
provisions of Chapter 559 of the Acts of 1946 which is "An
Act authorizing increases of the amounts of pensions payable

Thousand Dollars ($50,000) from the Rehabilitation Ynnd
to grade, drain, gravel, loam, seed, and fence a Memorial
Park in honor of North Andover residents who served in
WorldWar II, the Memorial Field to be bounded by Chi&er-
lng. Road and Parker Street on about 16 acres of land now
owned by the Town, this to be the initial construction in a
project which when completed would include playing fields,
field house, grand stand, parking area, etc., and completed
would cost an estimated $100,000. Petition of Board of
Selectmen on recommendation of the Permanent War Me-
morial Committee.
Favorable action is recommended on the following basis,
but with your particular attention called to the detailed

propriate the sum of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) to roll
and oil Salem Street from Boxford Street as far as it will go.

ject represents too great an expense for the benefit of too few
citizens; and that the costs for maintenance of reasonable
road surface conditions on this and other accepted streets

maintenance appropriation.
18
ARTICLE 37. To see if the town will raise and appropriate
Five Hundred Dollars ($500) to be used with the present
Hudson car to purchase a new police car. Petition of Alfred

to be added to the Police Department appropriation, to
provide for the appointment of two competent and qualified

appropriated to provide for the appointment of a competent
and qualified mans under Civil Service Rules, to be a regular
patrolman, said sum providing for payment at the prevail-
ing rate over the balance of this year 1947. Your Advisory
Board wishes it understood that this recommendation is
without prejudice to the request, as submitted, for two
men. It believes, however, that with the usual cooperation
of thc Chief of the department, a trial period over the bal-
ance of this year is in order before committing the town to
an irrevocable and permanent additional expenditure of
not less than $5,600.00 per year.
(Favorable action would mean about 40 cents on the Tax
Rate every year.)
ARTICLE 39. To see if the town will vote to raise and ap-

gineer of the Fire Department. Petition of James Hargreaves
and others.
Unfavorable action is recommended. It is felt that the
Fire Department has been well and ably managed for many
years. Our recommendation is without prejudice to the
Chief and is based on the fact that upon the evidence as
presented, we are doubtful as to whether the town would
benefit to a sufficient extent to compensate for the perman-
ent and irrevocable departmental increase of $2,800 per
year.
(See page 3 for detailed statement with respect to both
this Article and Article 43.)

Chief Engineer of the Fire Department, and one member of
the Advisory Board be authorized to act as a purchasing
commission for the new ambulance at a cost not to exceed
$5,800.00.
(Favorable action would mean about 80 cents on the Tax
Rate.)
ART~CLZ 43. To see if the town will vote to raise and ap-
propriate the sum of Seven Thousand Five Hundred and
Eight Dollars ($7,508) (plus increase as may be granted)
to be added to the Fire Department Budget to permit the
appointing of three permanent drivers and five hundred
dollars ($500) to purchase such equipment necessary for the
performance of their duties. Petition of the Board of En-
gineers.
Unfavorable action is recommended. In view of the im-
portance of this article and to permit of the proper consid-
eration thereof, it is suggested that that portion of this

"Fire Department" be read at this time.

gravel sidewalks shall be satisfactory to the highway sur-
veyor, who shall certify in writing to the Board of Selectmen
that they have been put in condition in conformity with
reasonable street and sidewalk construction practice. Petition
of Leonard Firth and others.

and that the article itself be referred to the committee
appointed under the terms of article 14 for consideration
and report as of the next annual town meeting.
