Boston Park Funds Drive Backed by Mayor
Mayor Fitzgerald urged a legislative plan to divert 25 percent of auto mobile fines and fees to the Metropolitan Park Commission and 25 percent to the Boston Park Commission. He argued that funds spent on docks rather than parks would have increased Boston population by 250,000 and taxable property by 250 million dollars. He warned Governor Draper would have opposed last year’s fee transfer to the Highway Commission if warned of road damage.
