Opposition to Interurban Terminal Franchise Before City Board
Michael Bamberger urged the Board of Public Works to reject the Interurban Terminal Company’s petition. He argued the city should demand at least 20000 dollars if granted and said 4 cent fares under the local system are not a hardship. He claimed many signatures on petitions were misled about bringing interurban lines versus a local system. Representatives of the terminal company attended. Judge Allen appointed appraisers to value Prince and Paul Kruger horses slated for sale by the Board of Safety, part of the old fire department equipment. The board discussed mounted patrols for Irvington and Tuxedo, suggesting one mounted officer may suffice for the suburb.
