Have Many Petitions
"There is now on file with the
board petitions containing hundreds
of names and there have been dele
cations, containing in the aggregate,
hundreds of persons who have re-
quested permanent improvements
and the roads that have been per-
m%anently improved have only been
so improved after insistent demands.
West Avenue Project
"As far as West avenue, Sewaren
is concerned, it is a known fact that
the Board of Freeholders were at
first opposed to this improvement in
its entirety, on the ground of eX-
pense. but that after insistent de-
mands from that locality this inn
provement was given in an effort to
satisfy the tax payers of hat vicinity.
The type of road selected was that
recommended by the freeholder of
that district. who naturally should
be in a position to determine what
type of pavement the people wanted.
The board has on file several letters,
from not only the Chamber of Com
merce of Perth Amboy. but from
prominent citizens of that city warm
ly commencing the board in the
awarding of the contract for this
road. One of these letters received
from Albert Leon of the Perth Am
boy Chamber OF Commerce and writ
ten under date OF July 80. says in
part:
THAT the Board of Freeholders,
in awarding contracts to improve
both sections of the Sewaren road
has rendered a service to the bust
ness men of Middlesex county that
cannot be overlooked, and I feel
quite certain that every man who
has had to use this road will thor
oughly appreciate the improvements
that you are making.
ut has not been with the idea of
neglecting the larger duties due the
county that the wishes of the local
residents of these roads have been
respected, but 1t vas with the
thought in mind that inasmuch as,
in most cases. they paid a proper
tionate share of the cost of the road
as AUDITING property owners that
they should have some determining
voice in selecting the type of pave
ment to be used.
I'm conclusion the Board of Free
holders of this county has only this
to say, that if the people of the coun-
ty want concrete roads. or any other
particular type of road. that all they
need to do is to show the board that
the sentiment of their locality favors
a certain particular type of pavement
and the board will do all it can to
meet that sentiment as so expressed:
and if the board can in the proper
discharge of it's greater obligations
to the entire county. meet their
wishes. hat they will be only too
