Pool manager rehired at increase amid committee dispute
The Township Committee approved Hor race Mahon’s rehiring as Swimming Pool Manager with a 16 percent raise to 3300 for the 1977 season after he had been paid 2800 last year. Several officials criticized the large raise, noting it sets a precedent, while Mahon’s leadership kept the pool profitable. A bonus weekend is planned June 11 and 12 offering Hillside residents free access and inviting non members to try the pool for a dollar.
