Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-07-18

Considerable confusion has been
caused by some Misrepresentation
and several property wner who
signed the first petition against the
laying of the concrete, when the
project as is an actual fact, was eX-
planned, signed the petition for 1t.
The cost will be SO a square yard
and a term of ten years will be given
for the payment. A property of
forty feet will be taxed about eigh-
teen dollars a year which will in
clude the cost of eXcavating and
laying the road and the interest.
Several property wner on the
street are against the proposition
solely because the county will lay
the concrete on Maple place. Since
Maple place has been taken over by
the county and is now a county
street and First street is neither d
county street nor state highway the
council could not look to either
for help in this project, which is
entirely for the benefit of the prop
erty owners on First street.
Thu street committee will make its
report at the regular meeting of the
council Monday evening.

BOROUGH HALL
MOVE PUSHED
Mayor MuIvihiII of Carteret
Names Committee to Fur
t her Plans for Building

CARTERET, July 18.-Mayor
Thomas j.. Mulvihill is making
renewed efforts to bring his project
for a new borough hall into a real
ization. A committee composed of
all the members of the council have
been appointed by. the mayor for
the purpose of selecting a suitable
site for the borough administration.
The committee will meet tomorrow
night at Z o'clock and glance over
a number of sites suggested and at
the next regular meeting report of
the inspection probably with a re-
commentator. 1t is believed that
the borough may consider a site in
the vicinity of the present post Of
flee being accessible to all parts of
the town.
A number of borough projects
suggested by Mayor Mulvihill are
pending for action until next cleo
ton. Some time ago it was agreed
that the people be given a chance to
vote whether they would favor the
erection of a borough hall and also
whether they would consider the
purchase of a dock site for public
uses. Committees working on these
projects are gathering figures and
other data as to the cost of building
and purchase so that the taxpayers
may have an opportunity in the fall
to know the proposed expenditures
on the improvements, and vote ac-
cordingly.
THE need of a borough hall is
quite evident" Mayor Mulvihill told
the reporter of the Evening News
this morning THE present method
of keeping borough records, valuable
papers and other things is fully in
adequate. They are scattered all
over the town and when certain
documents are needed they are hard
to Locate The mayor pointed out
also to a number of benefits the
borough will derive from the acquisi-
tion of a borough hall. In his opin-
ion the borough hall would not only
be a monument of the standards of
the borough but a proud contribu-
ton to the borough interests.
When Mayor Mulvihill and
Councilman Frank Andres brought
the matter of a new borough hall at
one of the council session it was sug-
gested that the fund now held by
the ex-service men for memorial
purpose be invested in the borough
hall. 1t was also suggested that in
lieu of the money contributed the
ex-soldiers would receive a room
free of any upkeep expense similar
to the Ilan recently adopted by the
Woodbridge township. This sug-
gestion however brought out various
disputes.
