conference ON
SOUTH COVE.
improvements Depend on
the Removal of a Piece
of Filled in Land
Now in Dispute.
CENTRAL R. R. VS. THE CITY
Removal Will Cost $50, ,ooo-
To Give the City Author.
ity Will Require an Act
of the Legislature.

A conference was held yesterday
afternoon between members of the
Street and Water Board and President
Jacob Ringle of the Finance Board at
which matters pertaining to the pro-
posed improvement of the South Cove
and the construction of new and larger
water mains to relieve the present con-
dition of low pressure in lower Newark
avenue and other sections We're discuss
ed. Mr.. Ringle was the only member of
the Finance Board who put in an ap-
also to attend the conference, was una
BILE to be present
AS to the South Cove improvement,
it was decided that nothing could be
done until strip of filed in land nine
hundred feet from the original bulkhead
was removed. This property had been
filed in by the Central Railroad Com
pany, which at the time claimed the
Cove, but was obliged to relinquish it
to the city after legal tilt in the
courts.
The question as to whether the rail
road company or the city shall remove
the filled in strip has not yet been de-
cided. 1t is estimated that its removal
will cost about $4,000. If the city is
to remove it bill will first have to- be
passed by the Legislature giving the city
the necessary authority.
The recent offer made the Finance
Board by R. NJ. Cooley, representing "a
concern" willing TO pay. the city $1,000
annually for a fifteen or twenty years
lease of property occupied by Captain
John Swensen as dry dock, the i'm
proved property to revert to the city at
expiration of lease, was incidentally
mentioned in connection with the gen
eral discussion of the improvement The
Swensen dock is located at the mouth
of the restricted waterway and the Cap
tain's business depends upon getting his
boats in or out of the Cove.
The maps prepared some time ago by
Chief Engineer Van Keuren for the i'm
provement of the Cove, showing systems
of piers in series of various numbers,
regulated by cost of proposed construc-
tien of such piers were re-examined. No
conclusion was reached as to whether
the City should construct the piers and
rent them or lease at nominal sum
property to individuals to construct their
own piers with the understanding that
they are to revert to the City in proper
condition at the expiration of the leases.
Concerning the proposition to lay new
and larger water mains in lower Newark
avenue and other sections, it was shown
conclusively that the present mains do
not give a sufficient amount of water
pressure. Mr.. Ringle. of the Finance
Board, especially favored the laying of
He admitted the great necessity of larger
water mains in lower Newark avenue
section.
It was decided to advise the issue Of
S1S5,o00 worth of bonds for the purpose
of laying new water mains.
The proposed issue of bonds for the
proposed reconstruction of the Jackson
avenue and Rayine road systems of sew
ers was not discussed at yesterdays con-
ference.
