FINANCE DEPARTMENT
The year 1957 ended with a budget surplus of $41,673. as a result of unspent ap-
propriations amounting to $34,999. and revenue of $6,674. in excess of estimates. Ad-
justment of reserves resulted in a net amount of $34,870. available for reduction of the
1958 Tax Rate.
While the amount raised by property taxes in 1957, including school and county as-
sessments, increased by $212,866. over the year 1956, this was partially offset by an
increase in assessed valuations amounting to $1,650,207., resulting in a tax rate in-
crease of only 73<: for municipal purposes, $1,48 forthe Union School District, and 49<J
for county purposes. The Penacook School rate decreased by $2.35 as a result of a re-
duction in the amount raised for that district.
Long term debt increased during the year by $223,000. New debt of $507,000. was
incurred, and $284,000. was paid off, as detailed in the following schedule:

ligible amount, the total amount of unredeemed tax liens held by the City increased
rather sharply in 1957. Below is a table showing the trend in recent years:

PLANNING
The year 1957 was an active one for the Concord Planning Board and its staff. Of
all the planning activities in which the board engaged, none commanded more time and
effort than the task of coordinating ten miles of superhighway construction with various
elements of the city plan. Other important activities of the board include revision of
the Concord building code, preparation of a comprehensive parking lot study, and in-
vestigation of the future school building needs of the Concord Plains area.
Major Highways
Because of the city's strategic location in relation to the northward extension of ex-
pressways in New Hampshire, the major portion of interstate highway construction pro-
jects started in 1957 was located in the Concord area. As a result, the Planning Board
devoted considerable time and effort to correlating the state highway department's Con-
cord area expressway plans with the city's long range plans for orderly community de-
velopment. Numerous conferences were held with state officials in connection with
these highway location plans.
Future Streets
One of the Planning Board's major recommendations of the year concerned the map-
pingof the lines of future streets in the vicinity of the new Rundlett Junior High School .
The future street from South to Clinton Street was proposed as an integral part of an in-
town circumferential route which would greatly facilitate travel between the south and
the west-end sections of the city.
Streets and Rural Roads
Petitions for the acceptance of approximately one mile of new streets were processed
for City Council consideration during 1957.
Reconstruction fo a 6,600 foot section of Shaker Road in East Concord was recom-
mended to the City Council as part of the city's continuing program of rural road better-
ment.
Traffic and Parking
During 1957, the Planning Board recommended the adoption of a number of changes
designed to facilitate the movement of vehicular traffic on Concord streets including al-
terations in the traffic islands at the intersection of Bouton and North State Streets, wid-
ening the traveled way of North State Street from Walker Street to the Ward 9 voting
place, and establishing one-way traffic on School Street between North State and Green
Streets.
On recommendation of the board, 19 new on-street parking spaces were established
in the civic district in the immediate vicinity of the abandoned Parker School. The board
also recommended that the maximum motor vehicle speed limit on North State Street be-
tween the city proper and West Concord be increased from 25 to 35 miles per hour.
At the request of the City Council, the Planning Board undertook a study of possible
public parking lot locations in the central business district. A report entitled "Down-
1A town Parking Lot Study" was transmitted to thecouncil for its consideration. Subsequent-
ly, the board prepared a special assessment study of the proposed Durgin Street parking
lot outlining detailed procedures for financing a portion of the cost of the parking lot by
assessing the owners of property especially benefited by the facility.
Zoning
Construction of the Frederic E.Everett Highway from Bow to East Concord resulted in
substantial disruption of the established pattern of land use and the zoning plan in the
general vicinity of the new road. Due to this situation, the Planning Board recommend-
ed changes in zoning districts affecting most of the land abutting the four-mile length
of the expressway at this location.
In cooperation with the Engineering Department, comprehensive regulations govern-
ing the height and use of structures in the vicinity of the airport were prepared and sub-
mitted to the City Council for adoption.
Four new residential areas, three in East Concord and one on Concord Plains, were
rezoned from agricultural to single residence districts. In addition, an 80-acre area on
Black Hill Road in the Manchester Street section was rezoned from an agricultural to a
local business district.
Recreation
Approximately 40 acres of landwere added to the city's recreational plant during the
year on recommendation of the planning Board. A 19-acre wooded area, acquired by
tax deed, was added to Rolfe Park in Penacook.
The area of the East Concord playground was substantially enlarged by the purchase
of a 10-acre parcel of land on the north side of the existing play area.
In other actions, the board recommended purchase of theDunstane property on South
Fruit Street as an addition to the Memorial Athletic Field, and the acquisition of the
Kimball School property for development as a play area for small children.
Water and Sewer Facilities
Five petitions for city water service, involving 2,700 feet of water main, were pro-
cessed by the board during 1957.
Work was started on a federally-financed program to determine the city's long-range
sanitary sewer needs. Preliminary plans will be developed for sewage treatment facili-
ties, including treatment plants and intercepting sewers.
Other Activities
Other matters considered by the planning agency included a revision of the Concord
building code, the order of priority of projects in the capital budget program, enactment
of flood control legislation, and a survey of school building needs on Concord Plains.
Records Department
* The City Clerk attended all meetings and hearings of the City Council in

Concord Fire Department responded to a total of 531 alarms ranging from the cover-
ing with sand of a leaking gasoline tank to a multiple alarm Odd Fellows Hall fire. Of
the 531 alarms recorded during 1957,467 were still alarms and 64 were box alarms. This
represented an increase of 14 over the total for the previous year.
The major fire of 1957 occurred at the Odd Fellows building with a total loss of
$49,652.72. In addition there were two other serious fires. They were at the Fitch
Murray Drug Store and the stables on Greenwich St.
Personnel
There were two members of long standing whom retired from the department. They
were Fire Chief Clarence Green and Captain Frank D. O'Brien.
Fire Prevention
Fire Department officials know through experience that carelessness is the major
cause of countless fires every year. As a result of this knowledge the department con-
tinued with its intensified fire prevention program during 1957. In addition to routine
inspection activities, fire drills were conducted in all the city schools and students were
instructed in fire prevention. A new program on fire evacuation was set up at the Con-
cord Hospital by the fire marshal I and his deputies, Chief Murdoch and Fire Department
personnel .
Apparatus and Equipment
In September a new GMC 750-gallow pumper was purchased by the City of Concord
and put in service at Fire Department Headquarters. Also a new Cities Service ladder
truck was put in service at the Penacook Station.

SANITARY INSPECTOR
About 2400 dairy and rinse samples were collected and analyzed, and written re-
ports sent to the dairy companies.
1260 inspections were made of eating establishments, grocieries, etc. and 151
written notices were sent to improve unsatisfactory conditions. 50 pounds of meat, 70
pounds flour, some cooked food and gravy plus 450 pounds of foodstuff were condemned
and destroyed.
Ten nursery schools were inspected prior to issuing license and 2 cider mills were
inspected together with the State Board of Health Inspector. Also regular inspections
were made of alleys and comfort station.
Quite a few complaints were checked, and where necessary, registered letters
were sent to correct. These complaints were mostly pertaining to plumbing. Eight resi-
dences were notified to abolish privies and install toilets connected with thesewerdis-
posal system.
During March 169 samples of milk were collected from 29 cows and milk examined
by special tests for mastitis. Six cows were found to have mastitis and the milk from
these animals was eliminated from the milk supply shipped to the Concord market. In
October 76 samples of milk were collected from 19 cows and examined for mastitis.
None were found to have mastitis.
Over 100 notices were sent to milk producers reminding them that stables must be
white-washed at least once a year.
The Sanitary Inspector was appointed by the New Hampshire State Committee for
Improving Consumer Acceptance of Milk to act as one of four judges to check all pro-
ducers' milk in Merrimack County for flavor and odor.
Helpful advice is periodically given
to local dairy farmers.
CONCORD & PENACOOK
Total Relief Costs: $82,259.89 (Includes administration costs)
The basic function of the Welfare Department is to render financial
assistance to the poor and needy persons of Concord and Penacook who
have virtually no resources. A careful investigation of each request is
made before any assistance is granted.
General Trend
In 1957 an average of 31 cases representing 77 persons were aided at
a total cost of $21,483.90 in comparison to 32 cases in 1956 with ex-
penditures of $22,487.16, which indicates that General Relief continues
its downward trend.

ENGINEERING AND PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
The year 1957 was a year of firsts for
the Concord Public Works Department'.
During the year we started our first sani-
tary landfill and eliminated the old open
dump in the center of the Heights area.
We built the first section of soil cement
highway in the state, 0.4 mile on Old
Turnpike Road at a cost of 96<£ a square
yard, which appears very favorable if the
gravel shortage cannot be solved. A third
first was the planting of trees on city-owned
land, a program which has been carried on
by the Water Department on their lands for
some years. This year we planted 10,000
red pines on land held for a future sewer
disposal site.
Other construction items completed
during the year were 6,300 feet of storm
sewer on the Heights, a large 54" inter-
ceptor which will provide an outlet for the
area. New sewers were built in Wilson
Avenue, Springfield Street, Putney Ave-
nue, Heights Road and Overlook Road.
Highway construction under T. R. A.
saw the completion of 0.4 mile of reloca-
tion on Carter Hill Road, the construction
of 0.3 miles of E. Sugar Ball Road and the
beginning of construction of Shaker Road.
Serious clay pockets were removed from
West Street, Liberty Street and Penacook
Street. These reconstruction projects have
greatly improved these streets. North State
Street was hot topped by contract from
Dolan Street to Curtis Avenue. This com-
pletes the traveled way of this major street
and gives a new riding surface from Con-
cord to Penacook .
The first airport project, providing high
intensity lighting for the N. S. runway,
was completed this year. A project to ex-
tend this runway 1000 feet south was be-
gun. This project will give Concord a 5000
foot runway with high intensity lights and
will provide as good airport facilities as any
airport in the State.
Our routine Public Works functions have
been carried on as usual. We were fortu-
nate this Winter to have a light snow fall,
with snow removal expenses running to only
$75,151.
Our refuse and garbage collection at
$112,000 for a population of 28,000, giv-
ing a per capita cost of $4, is a low cost
for the State or New England. At the same
time we are now operating a sanitary land-
fill that is used as an example throughout
the State.
Our Cemetery Department operation
has been improved through the use of addi-
tional equipment.
The Engineering Department in addi-
tion to maintaining the routine records of
the office, the Assesor's Maps, the Sewer
Maps, Street maps, etc., provided engi-
neering services for the projects built by
the Public Works Department and for the
contract construction.

CEMETERY DIVISION
The regular work of maintaining the local cemeteries was carried on in
the usual way. The following are some of the items of service performed,
the materials and equipment furnished by the cemetery for each interment.
Office Labor - The telephone orders for interments are taken in the office,
checking records, recording on the daily cost sheets, writing orders and in-
formation, drawing grave diagrams, entering information from permits, re-
cording on maps and books, locating graves for florists, vault companies,
relatives and friends and funeral directors. Opening the Interment - The
work of laying out the grave location, trucking planks and tools to grave
side, excavating grave, removing excess earth, setting lowering device
and grass matting, assistance on concrete vaults, filling in the grave, seed-
ing and fertilizing, removing dead flowers and containers at a later date is
all necessary for an interment. Directing the Interment - It is necessary
to wait for the funeral and direct and escort the funeral cortege to the
grave, and take care of the arrangements so they will reflect credit not
only upon the Director in charge, but also upon the Cemetery Personnel.
The more people that speak favorably of your cemetery the greater will be
its importance, influence, and success. Then too, every consideration
should be shown families whomay have loved ones interred, and the friends
who come to the cemetery to pay their respects. Tenderness and sincere
understanding of these situations makes our job a real service to the pub-
lic. Return of Equipment - The driver of the truck and the helper must
pick up planks, canvass, lowering device and grass, return compressor if
used and other tools to the garage.
The law requires permanent interment records to be kept. They must be legible for
use over a long period of years. These records are kept in detail and are properly in-
dexed for references. The maps on file in the office have the complete layout of the
property and the individual place of interment of each person interred.
Flower beds were set out for the summer, and each year there is a greater number be-
ing requested. These are charged for to both local and out of town residents on family
lots. Many are made available by trusts which are established for that purpose.
Eighty foundations were set for new monuments in all the cemeteries, also one-hun-
dred fifteen markers were set by cemetery employees and one hundred corner posts.
The general work of mowing, trimming shrubs and trees and cleaning up consumed
a large part of the annual work. Snow removal and sanding in the winter was done to
keep the road open.
There were seventy lots sold in the different cemeteries, the largest number in Blos-
som Hill. There are eleven trusts established on older family lots to help maintain their
care.
In Calvary Cemetery the upkeep which the department continues to perform has re-
ceived much favorable comment. There were one-hundred and one interments in Cal -
vary and twenty-two in Penacook Calvary Cemeteries during the year. All work is
charged for on a monthly basis and payments are promptly made.
A total of three-hundred and sixty interments were made in all the cemeteries dur-
ing the year. There were one-hundred and seventy five in Blossom Hill, twenty-seven
in Wood I awn, eleven in Maple Grove, nine in Pine Grove, seven in Millville, two in
Old North, three in Soucook, two in Beth Jacob, and one in Horse Hill. (The total
figure includes the interments in Calvary and Penacook Calvary Cemeteries.) There
were four veterans, eleven reliefs, and seven cremations.
Work is constantly being done to make new areas for future burials, and also to re-
pair the older lots. Since it has been a requirement that a trust be established for the
perpetual care of the lot at the time of purchase, the maintenance of the general ceme-
tery work is being made much simpler for the workmen.

PUBLIC SERVICE DEPARTMENTS
CONCORD PUBLIC LIBRARY
The outstanding event of 1957 in improving and extending library ser-
vice was the opening of the South End Branch in the New Rundlett Junior
High School late in October. This is a fine example of cooperation be-
tween two city institutions in making city facilities more widely available
to the people of the community. The school maintains its school library
during school hours with one of the teachers in charge; Tuesday and Thurs-
day afternoons after school hours, Tuesday evening, and Saturday after-
noon the public library takes over to supply books to children and adults
of the South End.
The Board of Education has been most generous in its cooperation with
the Board of Library Trustees in planning the library with the architects in
such a way as to allow the general public to use it outside of school hours
without going into the rest of the school building, which makes the room
available during school vacations as well as during the school year. The
public library supplies books for general reading for people of all ages, as
it does at the Main Library and on the booktrailer; the school supplies its
own reference and supplementaryreading material for the use of the junior
high students and teachers.
The opening of this branch made possible a booktrailer community stop
at Rumford School, an area which has long wanted better library service.
The total result has been an increase last year of over 3500 in circulation
in the South End of the city; it has increased about 6800 in the past five
years, an indication of the growth in population in that part of the city,
as well as better library service there.
The booktrailer makes five other community stops every week, at Con-
cord Heights, Walker School, Millville School, East Concord, and West
Concord. That this service is worth while is shown in the booktrailer cir-
culation which was 65,310 in 1957, a gain of 22,841 since 1953. Con-
cord is a wide-spread city and these books reach people of the city who
are entitled to library service but who live too far from the Main Library
to make us of that book collection.
The Branch Division also includes Penacook Branch Library, as well
as the South End Branch, service at the Concord Hospital, to the Alco-
holics Division, and to several nursing homes in the city. Books are con-
stantly being shifted from one Branch Divison outlet to another, making
maximum use of the book collection. The Branch Division accounted for
94,852 book circulation in 1957, nearly one-third of the total city cir-
culation.
In the city as a whole the circulation of books was the largest in the
history of the library, 265,845. This was a gain of 13,825 over 1956. It
also means fifteen books read by every registered borrower or nine books
for every Concord resident, a high percentage compared with other libra-
ries of similar size. Thepopulation of the city remains fairly stable, there-
fore the increase in circulation and other use of the library indicates bet-
ter book collection.
27
Adult non-fiction increased from 25% to 27% of the total circula-
tion in the past five years, fiction decreased from 48% to 41%, and chil-
dren's books increased from 27% to 32%.
The total registrations of borrowers was 17,332 at the end of 1957, or
61% of the population.
The addition of a small record collection in 1957 resulted in the cir-
culation of 1813 records during the year, another appreciated service.
But book circulation is not the only standard of library service. Re-
ference service is also one of the important parts of its activities. In 1957
about 6300 questions were answered in the Adult Division and 2600 in the
Young People's Division. Actually questions were also answered in the
Children's and Branch Divisions, swelling the total considerably for the
city as a whole. The questions range from simple statistical information
to music, art, and cooking, car repair and nuclear physics. The variety
of questions is almost unlimited.
None of this would be possible without a good book collection. And
a good book collection demands not only careful purchase of new books
but frequent discarding of out-of-date and worn out books and rebinding
of books and magazines of permanent value. No collection of books can
serve the public properly unless the contents are made available by effi-
cient cataloging, and this involves listing all materials received under
subject as well as author and title, bringing subject headings up-to-date
(changing Telegraphy, Wireless to Radio for instance), recataloging old
material to make classifications and subject entries consistent, as well as
getting new books on the shelves, fully cataloged, as quickly as possible.
Our book collection now numbers 70,308 volumes.
The library has also rendered a community service by providing meet-
ing rooms for many boards, committees, discussion groups, and extension
classes. There were 233 such meetings in 1957, plus weekly story hours,
many film programs, meetings of the Junior Reading Club under library
supervision, and classes for mothers of pre-school children, with a total
attendance in the last four library programs of about 1800.
The library had many exhibits in 1957, including one on the 50th an-
niversary of the signing of the Federal Pure Food and Drug Act, the 100th
anniversary of the founding of THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY, a Polish Post-
age Stamp exhibit, the sixth annual show of the Concord Artists, Mrs.
Rowell Sturm's drawings,the work of the art classes of the public schools,
a display on the history of the Bible, the American Architectural Awards,
both plans and photographs, old Valentines, photographs of Afrioa, and
ship models, in addition to Christmas decorations and posters, and numer-
ous special book displays.
The Children's Room had a doll exhibit, a special Book Week display,
paintings and drawings by Elizabeth Orton Jones of Mason, New Hamp-
shire, illustrations from books by other popular authors, shells and appro-
28 priate holiday displays.
The library participated in the Hobby Show, and staff members took
part in the New Hampshire Folk Festival in Franklin, a story telling Work-
shop in Pembroke, talked to nine other groups, and attended 123 commun-
ity meetings to represent the library, as well as meetingsof the New Hamp-
shire and New England Library Associations.
All these books and services for only $210 per resident of Concord1.
One good book costs $3.50 to $10.00 these days, except for mysteries,
westerns, and paperbacks.
Mrs. Roger Barney and Mr. Willis D.Thompson, Jr. resigned from the
Board of Library Trustees, and Mrs. Harry Spiegel and Mr. Willis Duer
Thomson III were appointed to replace them. Mrs. Lois Markey, assis-
tant librarian, adn Mrs. Roberta Young, resigned from the library staff
during the year. Mrs. Martha Moses was appointed assistant librarian.
The Board of Library Trustees, as well as the librarian, are grateful to
these people for their valuable contributions to the advancement of li-
brary service in Concord.
The librarian is especially appreciative of the efforts of the staff mem-
bers who have made the year a successful one.

WATER DEPARTMENT
WATER DEPARTMENT
Water consumption for 1957 amounted to 1,429,285,200 gallons, or
an aver age of 3,915,850 gallons per day (about 137 gallons per person
daily). This consumption was 1 1,814,400 gallons more than in 1956.
Lack of rain and the hot dry summer caused the level of Penacook
Lake to drop to a point nine feet below the overflow spillway, this was
the lowest the Lake had been since 1931. The well-field was put into
operation July 1st and the 139,464,200 gallons pumped from this source
saved Concord from suffering a serious water shortage.
In accordance with recommendations in report of Camp, Dresser &
VcKee, consulting engineers, the oddition of an alkali to the water sup-
ply was approved to counteract the slight acidity of the water and to stop
corrosion. A contract was awarded for an addition to the West Concord
Pumping Station including the installation of equipment for said corrosion
control. It is estimated that the plant will be ready for operation in June
1958.
A 25 percent increase in water rates was voted which went into effect
on April 1st, 1957, the increased revenue to finance costs of improving
and expanding the system.
Laid 5,176 feet of cement lined cast iron pipe from six through 24
inches in diometer. Extensions cnounted to 3,214 feet and relaid mains
accounted for 1,962 feet.
Major 1957 construction projects:
* The most important project was the completion of the 24-inch trans-
mission main from the Lake to the City Proper.
* Extensions were laid in South Main Street, Putney Avenue, Guay Street,
3:" "gfield Street, Wilson Avenue and New Dunbarton Road.
* Perry Avenue main was relaid.
* New 8-inch pipe laid under Everett Turnpike at Fan Road and Ferry
Street.
* New pumps and recording meters installed at Columbus Avenue Station.
* Pump Room and equipment painted at Sanders Well Field.
* Laid 84 new service connections, 99 old services relaid, (5,927 ser-
vices now in use).
* Set six new hydrants, replaced two old hydrants, (763 hydrants in sys-
tem).
* Set 116 new meters, replaced 48 old meters, (5,211 meters now in
service).
* Repaired 46 leaks - 19 on mains and 27 on service connections.
* Acquired 1/2 yard trench-hoe and two pick-up trucks.
