i <br /> 10 <br /> j Report of the Board of Selectmen <br /> building d development Indicative of the rate of b g anin 'the <br /> 3.I Town is the report from our Building Inspector that over Five <br /> and ane-half million dollars ($5,500;000.00 plus) worth of build- <br /> ing permits have been issued in 1972, as against Three and one- <br /> quarter million dollars ($3,250,000.00) in the previous year. This <br /> represents an increase of over $2,000,000.00. Condominiums have <br /> .a arrived in Mashpee—as well as most other towns on the Cape, and <br /> I <br /> permits have been issued for two on Route 28, one in the vicinity <br /> of Quinaquisset Avenue, and one near the Falmouth-Mashpee <br /> line, as well as one in the South Mashpee area. Still others are <br /> under consideration. <br /> Highway projects as voted in the last annual town meeting <br /> shave been completed or are currently in the works; and we are <br /> most pleased to report that at long last the Seconset Island road <br /> project has been contracted for, and actual work by the contractor <br /> has begun and is now in progress. Great Hay and Great Oak <br /> Roads have been funded and are currently being worked upon. <br /> g <br /> li <br /> Xmas ht <br /> l j Street lights as requested have been installed, and our <br /> display is enhanced each year at the Mashpee Rotary. <br /> Our Stabilization Fund has grown steadily each year, with the <br /> addition of $15,000.00 each year for the past several years. This <br /> may soon be put to use with the current great need for new mum <br /> installations for almost every Town Department. <br /> cipal buildings and <br /> The three new classrooms for the Samuel G. Davis School <br /> 4 <br /> are completed and currently in use. A recent open house disclosed <br /> a very gratifying outlay which will certainly be conducive to greater <br /> 1' achievement for both teachers and pupils. <br /> All departments of the Town have shown great strides in their <br /> ' achievements necessitated by our rapid growth in population and <br /> l consequent need for their services. We wish to give special com- <br /> T mendation to the Mashpee Historical Commission for the accom- <br /> plishments evidenced on the site and building of the old Avant <br /> Homestead, and extend the thanks of the townspeople through this <br /> Board to its chairman, members of the Commission, and officers <br /> and volunteers from the Otis AFB and all the individuals and <br /> i <br /> i <br />
