t From Page 1) In other news, the Lower Township MUA has agreed to share with the CMCMUA the construction and use of an ocean outfall. John H Mead, project counsel, said recent meetings between the two agencies have resulted in a “policy decision. What remains to be done is the creation and adoption of a service agreement." Aid, Revenue Cut TRENTON — Gov. Brendan Byrne introduced a $5.6 billion state budget Saturday and in the process signaled the end of state minimum aid to so-called wealthy school districts — including some $1.3 million which several school districts on the Jersey Cape were counting on. Also as part of his bare bones fiscal budget, the governor announced a reshuffling of revenues and expenditures that includes doing away with the bank tax revenue which used to flow to the counties. In this case, the Cape will lose $99,000. In effect, the governor is telling socalled ratable rich areas they will have to rely more on theif local tax assessments than upon state revenue sources which are being diverted to help bafance the budget.

VINCI SAID IT WAS gratifying to see the LTMUA ‘‘meet the task in such a business-like manner.” He praised the Lower Township MUA contingent headed by Leo Jordan, chairman. Roy Gillian, former Cape May County Freeholder from Ocean City, was welcomed to his first meeting as commissioner of the MUA. Gillian was appointed recently by the freeholders to succeed David L/ Simpson. Additional mapping work for Lower Township and the Del Haven/Green Creek areas was approved. Pandullo Quirk Associates, consulting engineers, were awarded the $86,656 contract, making the total 'mapping costs irt the Wildwoods/Lower Region $222,956. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR George Marinakis announced the schedule for discussing the ongoing mapping program with the municipalities as follows: Wildwood and West Wildwood Feb 9; Wildwood Crest and North Wildwood on Feb. 17 and Middle Township on March 10. Cape May Coupty Agricultural ageht John McLeod was' commended by Marinakis for his assistance in exploring the possibility of using septage bn farm land. McLeod has been coordinating discussions among the farmers on this issue and recently conducted a meeting with farmers, NJDEP and Cook College personnel.
