Police Bonus Continues For Township Workers Despite Talks
The Township Committee Tuesday night adopted a resolution to continue the $360 bonus for Police and Fire Departments this year, equivalent to $300 plus several paid holidays. The bonus is voted annually as base pay raises are restricted. Chiefs excluded by separate ordinances. A temporary budget of $398,947.78 was also adopted to cover expenses until 1959. The committee asked the Freeholders for county aid in Roselle’s Public Service Corp dispute and authorized estimates for new flags in memory of Alaska becoming the 49th state.
