WILL SEEK BILL ON BOUNDARY STREETS
 Town Planners Want Action in State Legislature LAMB RENAMED CHAIRMAN
Wheeler Again Secretary of Com
 mission-Building Committee to Meet - Thibault-Julian Engage ment-Episcopal Church Meeting.

An act dealing with streets which are located on the boundaries of 1 towns will be sought by the Plain- vile town plan commission in the | present session of the state legisla- ture. At the meeting of the commis- | sion last night Chairman John F.. l Lamb and First Selectman John J. kimmel were appointed q commit tee to confer with Judge B. F. Gaff- ney of New Britain, the, town at ! torney regarding the form of the bill, which it is planned 10 have | Representative Robert B. White 1 present.
 Several of these streets occur along the boundaries of Plainville. and in each case the situation works out disadvantageously to this town, the street itself being placed so that it is entirely within the town limits but the property on one side being in a noighboring town. This is the case with Forrest street. Camp street, Redstonc hill. and the town road along the southington line. The Forrest street difficulty has heen the major one. as the residents have petitioned for acceptance of the street. The property on the west | side of the thoroughfare is in Brs- 1 tol, and the town planners feel that the Bristol residents should be as sessed equally with the Plainville in- habitants, since they receive as much benefit from the road. Sev- eral conferences have been held with the Bristol authorities but no sats- faction has been gained, and the town is without power to assess the Bristol people unless the neighbor- ing city agrees
 | A bill to take care of this condi- ton will be sought It is hoped that there can be put through a statute 1 providing flor some authority to which the matter could be taken if the two towns cannot agree between themselves. Other towns are prob ably afflicted as is PlainVillc, and it is thought the bill can be put through with little opposition. Lamb Reelected
 John E. Lamb was reelected chair man of the commission. His term , expired last October, when he was reelected to the body. but no meet ing since then had had q full enough attendance to warrant hold i ing the election of the chairman. | Frank T.
