Parkway Board Suspends Supervisor of Appraisals.Administrative Procedures in Right-of-Way Division Under Clifton Man Are Questioned. Charles F. Lindauer, Clifton real estate appraiser, has been suspended by the New Jersey Highway Authority from his position as supervisor of appraisals in the right-of-way division of Garden State Parkway. Resident of Allwood. The suspension was announced at yesterday's meeting of the highway authority in Red Bank. No reason was given beyond a statement that the suspension would be effective "unfit certain aspects of administrative procedures within the right of way division have been clarified". Lindauer lived at 215 Beverly Hill Road, in the Allwood section of Clifton, for several years. He is now living at the Paterson YMCA although his wife continues to live at the Clifton address. The suspended official was unavailable today for comment on his suspension. He joined the highway authority in February 1953, when Herman Kramer, who was loaned to the authority by the State Highway Department as chief appraiser, returned to his former position. Suspended by Tonti. It was learned that the suspension was ordered on Monday by D. Louis Tonti, acting executive director of the authority, on the recommendation of Theodore Deuce, general attorney, and a special committee appointed by the director to review certain administrative matters. Orrie de Nooyer, of Garfield, chairman of the authority, declined this morning to reveal the specific charges against Lindauer. He said a hearing would be held as quickly as it could be arranged. He said he believed it would be unfair to Lindauer to make public the allegations against him because he said it possible was that … actions under question. Want to See Lawyer. Tonti said he had offered to hold a public hearing for Lindauer on August 4, but that Lindauer said he wanted to consult a lawyer before accepting. A prepared statement issued by the authority said: The authority will take no further action at this time beyond ratification of the interim measures put into effect by the acting director to maintain the routine business of the right-of-way division, but will await a full report when review is concluded." The right-of-way division has fit charge of appraising property needed for the parkway and negotiating for its purchase. Widening Urged. The authority authorized Tonti to ask the State Highway Department to consider adding a h third northbound lane on Route 17 from the parkway terminus to a Midland Avenue, Paramus, to eliminate traffic congestion. There has been heavy congestion there on weekends. De Nooyer said the authority was giving full consideration to if the idea of building a "reversible" roadway in the center of the parkway, or possibly a third lane a from Asbury Park to the Raritan River. He said this would not be done, however, until a "definite traffic pattern had been estimated". "It would be foolhardy," de Nooyer said, "for the authority to enter into multi-million dollar expenditures until such a traffic pattern was clear." Lindauer's salary is $9,000 a year. He became supervisor of appraisals last August.
