A special town meeting was held
Saturday afternoon in Union hall
with a small attendance Of voters.
The meeting was called to order at
2 o'clock by Town Clerk Flanders
and J. f. Withee was elected mod
orator. The first article of interest
was to see if the town would take
any action on repairing the eastern
approach to the old Patterson toll
bridge. After short discussion. in
which is was learned that if the town
did this it would probably become
liable should there be any accident
on the bridge, it was voted to pass
over the article. The next article to
come before the meeting was in re-
lation to State road improvement on
the road going by Lakewood 1t was
voted to instruct the selectmen to
hire $1,000 to go with the $1,000 APP
propriated at the state Legislature,
Next came the adoption of a code OF
stringent building regulations by
which the limits Of the Madison VIII
lage Corporation was made fire dis
trict. BY these laws anyone wish
ing to repair roofs or erect new
buildings must first secure the con-
sent of the seleCtmen. A code OF
local traffic laws was also adopted.
The last article was to see II the
town would raise additional money
for the building of sidewalks re-
uuired by postal regulations to Sc
cure the free delivery OF mail IN
this village. Owing to the fact that
a part of the voters deemed the de-
mand by the postal department
that there should he sidewalks on
both sides of the streets was unrea-
s0nable it was voted not to raise any
additional money for the purpose
Owing to this vote the local free de-
livery will probably be indefinitely
postponed.
