RUMORS
At WOODBRIDGE
Cost of Extending Maple St.
Would be Small Action
Monday Night

WOODBRIDGE, July 21-Th-
many false rumors floating about the
township in connection with the
planned Improvement of extending
Maple street to High street are fast
being nailed as such. One of the ru-
mors which created considerable
sensation was that concerning the
cost of this work. According to the
rumors it would cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000, when in reality
it would cost about $1,000. This
small cost for the extension of the
street is due in a great extent to the
action of Arthur Durham, the owner
of the property through which the
street is to pass, in assuring those
who are in favor of the street that
he will sell the land necessary for
the Improvement to the township o
exactly what he paid for 1t,
Not only has Mr.. Durham lee II
be known that he is willing to sell
the land at cost price but announces
he is also willing to lay sidewalks
from the present end of Maple
street to High street at the same
time the street is being extended.
There seems to be much concert
ed action in Woodbridge against
this much improvement. Some OF
the DIRECTORS do not even reside on
Maple street, but have gone so far
as to put petitions in circulation
against the improvement, and from
latest reports have engaged legal
talent to represent them at the
hearing.
1t is understood that some have
formed the opinion hal the cost of
this Improvement must be paid
within a stated period, but from
officials in the township it is learn
ed that the assessment for work of
this kind may be levied for a period
of from seven to ten years, thus as
surfing no hardship to the property
owners as far as the payment of
the improvement is concerned.
