Chance for Borough to Get Curb and Gutter Laid Cheaply
An offer was made at the June meeting through Burgess Louis De Carlo Jr. for the borough to loan steel curb and gutter forms to Little Italy residents on South Main Street. Some property owners would supply cement and labor and cover a portion of the work, with borough engineer approval. No action was taken as Warden Whittemore was unsure if the forms could be loaned. De Carlo said owners on the curbless side would pay the full cost if only the forms were provided. Normally the borough covers one third of curb and gutter costs.
