Says Klies Knew
Denial was made today by Mrs.
Jean Yacek Of Cherry street ex-
tension of a statement that Fred
KlieS Of the same street did not
know he was selling the water rights
when he sold property to Chester
and Jean Yacek. Mrs. Yacek said
Mr.. Klies also knew he was selling
rights to driveway.
Mr.. Klies protested to the board
Of warden and burgesses Tuesday
night that he could get no water
there and when questioned after
indicated he was unaware he had
sold the water rights.
Mrs. Yacek said today that
although Mr.. Klies had been using
the water for some time. a survey
water was not on the Klies property,
but was on property owned by the
Spencer family, she said the Yaceks
then bought this land from the
Spencer family to make sure they
would have water.
She feels that only one side OF
the case was given at the borough
board meeting and expressed regret
that she did not know the matter
was to be taken up. The board told
Mr.. Klies they would take steps
which may lead to erection OF a
hydrant there by the town, even
though the street Is in the outside
district.
