Council Rejects Plan to Repave Public Square

The Common Council rejected a State Highway Department proposal to re concrete the damaged public square between trolley tracks. The plan would have added concrete 31 feet wide along the tracks at a borough cost of about $1000, but after debate and mayoral veto the project was halted. The mayor argued the job would be too costly and not beneficial, while some councillors favored rebuilding near the track with new ballast and relaying. The state may still remove the worst sections without borough funding.
