Public Meeting on Sewers Planned in Township
Residents and property owners in the township will meet at Park Hall next Thursday afternoon to discuss a proposed sewerage plan. Engineer Miart Rogore reports total costs around 76 000 dollars for sewers outside the purification plant, plus 106 000 dollars if the plant is included, with thirteen miles of sewer and about 2 000 lots affected. Tax estimates suggest 10 000 dollars annual receipts from rents and connections, but many fear tax increases. The new law allows petitioned votes by owners of half the taxable property, and Ocean Grove’s stance remains doubtful amid existing private sewer networks.

Free Library Plan Passed in Aubury Park Vote
The special election in Aubury Park approved establishing a free public library by narrow margins, with 83 to 81 overall, 85-66 in First Ward and 48-26 in Second Ward. Refunding water bonds at lower interest could save about 6000, but future funding requires a mayoral commission and another vote on the amount. The city may buy the current library building for 7000, yet tax and operating costs raise concern among property owners. Friends say a free library will bring incalculable benefits.

The Coast Company led by president Henry H. Yard asks the Court of Errors and Appeals to review a Borough of Spring Lake suit to remove timbering buildings along the lake banks.
