Morang, Jr., Bur- ton F. Whitcomb, J. Edward Surette, Jr., Thomas D. Morse, John W. Moc- cia, Jr. — organized on March 8, 1960 by electing as Chairman, J. Edward Surette, Jr., Secretary, Burton F. Whitcomb, John J. McCarthy, Executive Secretary and Raymond S. Dower — Mrs. Ida L. Weiss, Clerk. Prior to the election of the new Board, Chairman Morang resigned the Chairmanship in favor of the election of Selectman Herbert R. Waite, who was not a candidate for re-election, as Chairman of the Board. This action was taken in recognition of Selectman Waite's contribution of outstanding service as a member of the Board of Selectmen. COMMITTEE APPOINTMENTS Fire Department: Burton F. Whitcomb, John W. Moccia, Jr. Police Department: Kenneth Morang, Jr., Thomas D. Morse Veterans' Services Department : John W. Moccia, Jr. Civil Defense Department: John W. Moccia, Jr. Building-Wire Inspection Departments: Thomas D. Morse John J. McCarthy was re-appointed Executive Secretary for a term of three years in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 5, Section 8 of the by-laws of the Town of Wakefield. This position provides for mana- gerial co-ordination of all departments within the Selectmen's jurisdiction as well as with other Town, State and Federal Boards, Committees, Depart- ments and Officials. The Executive Secretary also serves as the Board of Selectmen's representative when the Board is not in session. Mrs. Ida L. Weiss was appointed as Clerk of the Board to succeed Ray- mond S. Dower upon his retirement. Mr. Dower had faithfully served the Town for many years as a Selectman and Clerk to the Board, during which time, his services had proven extremely valuable. Tax Collector Carl W. Sunman succumbed on April 18, I960 after twenty-five years of faithful service to the Community. Miss Catherine E. Simpson, a former member and Chairman of the Board of Selectmen, was appointed Temporary Tax Collector. The Board met in joint session with the Board of Public Works and the Recreation Commission for the purpose of filling a vacancy on these Boards as is required by the Massachusetts General Laws. Mr. Melvin J. Levine was elected to the Board of Public Works to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Herbert Hewitt, Jr., and Mrs. Vera D. Curley was elected to the Recreation Commission to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of John O'Brien. Chapter 17 of the Town By-Laws prescribes that the Board of Select- men shall supervise and conduct the election of an employees' representa- tive to the Personnel Board for a term of three years. Lieutenant Charles C. Curran of the Fire Department was elected to this position. Rev. William F. Maloney was appointed Catholic Chaplain of the Police Department and Rev. Louis Bourgeouis of the Fire Department. Rev. John V. Thorp was appointed Protestant Chaplain of the Police Department and Rev. John Koehler of the Fire Department. 149TH ANNUAL REPORT The Board engaged in an active consideration of the multi-complex problems that press upon a growing suburban community. The Federal Census Bureau certified the population of the Town as 24,276 persons, which represented an approximate twenty -five percent increase in the past ten years. The Town's growth as an important Business-Residential Com- munity is being constantly identified with this changing population pattern. The Board of Selectmen has continued to represent the Town's inter- est before Legislative Committees and Special Commissions for the purpose of presenting information and evidence on matters which are critically important to the Town of Wakefield. A continuous study of parking and traffic problems has been main- tained by the Committee on Police. Many changes have been effected, as required, in the Street Traffic Rules and Regulations. A complete review of the entire Traffic Rules and Regulations' code has been undertaken and will be approved and reprinted immediately after the next Annual Town Meeting. The Board has authorized negotiations for the purchase or emi- nent domain taking of properties previously voted by Town Meeting as required in the lay-out for the construction of a Main Street By-pass. These properties have not been taken because of necessary clearancy by the Massachusetts Department of Public Works with the Wakefield Depart- ment of Public Works before construction plans can be completed. The Police and Fire Departments regard this section of roadway as essential to the provision of proper protective service and it is generally agreed that such a roadway would eliminate a great proportion of thru traffic in the congested business center. The Board continued to oppose the installation of "automatic gates" at the Boston & Maine Railroad Crossing on Forest and Main streets. The Boston and Maine Railroad has now petitioned the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities for permission to withdraw their request for this installation.

This submittal is in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Stormwater Phase II Regulations and the Massachusetts DEP requirements. The format of this report follows the Section F listing of infonnation items under Part 1I Massachusetts Small MS4 Storm Water Management Program. See the Table of Contents following this cover letter for identification of each report section. In su111111ary, the Town of Wakefield has met compliance with the Town's permit application submittal dated July 28, 2003. The only permit component that was changed was the Adopt-A-Stream Program. In lieu of this program, the Department of Public Works (DPW) implemented a stream• cleaning program, starting in the spring of 2007. It should also be noted, that in 2015 into 2016 during permit year thi1ieen, the Town engineering consultant completed and submitted a draft of a drainage study of the Town. The study, includes a drainage model of the Town's drainage system components, recommended changes to the existing drain system and downstream receiving channels, X:\admin\npdcs\may l6annualrpt streams and rivers along with implementation priorities; estimated design, permitting and construction costs; which will in turn reduce the frequency and degree of flooding that occurs, thus reducing the potential uptake and wash off of pollutants and other materials to the receiving waters.
