Hillside Township Commissioner Alexander Menza outlines the township’s street improvement program.

The plan seeks state and federal funds to replace costly patchwork with a complete reconstruction under a master program.

A township committee meeting surfaced a clash between Philip Nicolaus, an independent candidate for State Assembly, and Commissioner Alex Menza who seeks the Democratic nomination.

Menza defended the need for new roads, noted land acquisition delays, and denied taxes for housing forthcoming, while criticizing Nicolaus for spreading claims. Other actions included delaying the Alarm System Ordinance, naming traffic guards for the school year, and introducing a Bus Stop Ordinance amendment for North Broad and Hollywood avenues due to street widening.
