 However, further nominations can be made at Fridays meeting prior to the election. The post will discuss other matters of importance so a good attendance is desired. Spring Street Sewer Matter
 mat matter of the Spring street sewer is by no means dead. Leo Brophy, street committee chair man. is still active in his campaign among property owners on the street to persuade some of the re- luctant ones to agree to the DOT ough offer.
 H will come up at the November meeting of the borough board and by then MT Brophy hopes to have won over more residents of that section. Thus far five property owners there are willing to accept inc borough proposal concerning inc sewer and five against 1t. How ever. those opposed own much more property there than do those for 1t.
 The borough proposes that most of the residents there agree to pay Accents per foot now and defer the vest If the assessment inde1nitely' Tha .otal assessme ent will be the same as on other streets, $2.5O per foot.
 Burgess Brophy believes 1t would he to the advantage of residents there to have the sewer installed hecause 1t would increase the value vf their land and help them all, he thinks. ,.,
 Al . recent meeting with the warden and street committee, most of the residents were opposed to if. However, one of the strongest opponents who does not live tnere hut owns land there. thinks the proposition fair for he asked 1T the same proposition would be extend ed to residents of the street on which he resides.
 Two of the largest pieces or iano are owned by persons who do ho' live there and naturally these gre not anxious to have a sewer in- stalled for they will not benef1t di- rectIy as much as the others they think. MT Brophy feels 1t would he silly for the state to go ahead with the work on the road if later ~n this road will be torn up to lay q storm sewer there. Residents oi cthar sections of the town toewhom inc same proposal was made, nave eccanted it. The 40 cent charge IS merely to pay the administration for axpense of materials.
