The Read Committee report on macadamizing the Cranbury to Cranbury Station road was challenged as T. J. McGovern’s bid bond was deemed insufficient. McGovern offered to post a full contract bond and later a certified check, while officials debated replacing the bond with stronger security. The board voted to table the committee’s report and await the next meeting to decide.
