Township grapples with deputy chief succession and civic center plan
Township commissioners weigh a shift at night duty as Deputy Chief John Mason nears retirement. They consider promoting a sergeant to lieutenant to lead the department at night while Captain Paul Korlesky resists being bypassed. The Liberty Park Association’s civic center plan stalls with few organizational seats, while veterans push for space in the Bristol-Myers property venue. Realtor Al Schoen sparks zoning talks by switching Hillside avenue plans from single family homes to an apartment project, risking further rezoning battles if neighboring corners stay as is.

Elizabethtown Water Company chief engineer R. Stone warns of rationing if rainfall does not materialize within three weeks. He notes mains pressure cuts may curb usage, harming second and third floor residents, as artesian wells and pumping stations face a dropping water table. Newark and Hillside also cut pressure to conserve supply. A nine point voluntary conservation plan recommends fixing leaks, draining fixtures, and reducing daily water use.
