; News Notes from Lovyer Township , E. J. Duffy 465-5055

I MARY BAXTER. Lower activist, told township committee. during its final regular meeting last week, that she was "very upset" about the township trash "pickup at the Lobster House" June 22. Lower's Public Works crews hauled away mounds of rubbish and garbage from the Schellenger's Landing dock and restaurant complex in what Mayor Robert Fothergill described as "a horrendous mess." Private trash haulers have increased their collec tion fees to compensate for the extra distance and other costs they incur trucking the trash to the county's Woodbine landfill that opened in mid-May. Those haulers used to dump their loads locally at either Smith's landfill near West Cape May or at MarTee landfill in Middle Township. Facing collection fee hikes as high as 35 percent, some businesses are nowdepending on municipal trash pickups. Lower has obliged — but only on regular collection days — thus the piles or rubbish. Referring to the large ^volume from businesses

like the Lobster House. Baxter asked the committee. "Do you know of anything on the books <oT" I restrict this?" She noted 1 that Philadelphia charges extra for trash pickups that exceed 15 cubic feet, roughly five large trash bags or cans "No." Fothergill replied. "Well, there should (be*." said Baxter "I don't think it's fair for the little guy to pay for the big guy Fothergill. who was still serving as deputy mayor , during the meeting, said he has asked township Solicitor Bruce Gorman to draft a resolution- that, if adopted, would establish limits on the volume .of trash the township will collect from any site before an extra charge is imposed "I'd be very interested in anything ( trash limit information) you have." Gorman told Baxter. Former Mayor Peggie Bieberbach. still mayor at the time, told Baxter that former solicitor John Callinan researched • the question and told the committee "there's no way we f could have" refuse^o colr lect trash from local businesses. ' ' 1 1 would be discnuninatory," she added. yrecalling Callinan's advice. "Actually." Baxter replied, "it's discriminatory the way it is because the little people are paying for the big people "I'm sure there's a way to do it." she concluded, arguing that homeowners, with household loads of trash, should not pay the cost of municipal collections for commercial i properties. si SPEAKING OF TRASH. ? it will be collected as usual h in North Cape May on Wednesday, despite the July 4 holiday, according to a Public Works spokesman "IT JUST GOES to show you that you can fight city hall — and the county and state — if you want to." Bieberbach said while presenting a plaque to Milton H. Low of Roslvn Avenue. North Cape May. at last week's meeting, for his efforts to have traffic signals installed at the intersection of Breakwater J. and Fishing Creek roads, County Freeholder fftS Gerald Thornton took credit for the new traffic lights, some township j-J, residents complain, but it

was Low who campaigned to get them erected. More than 40 collisions, including fatal crash, have occurred at the intersection slice 1980. Joseph Wall of North Cape May presented Low. a former upstate municipal official, with a plaque at the intersection June 22 to thank him on behalf of local citizens for his traffic signal campaign. BIEBERBACH and former Township Committeeman Thomas Clydesdale also received plaques at the last committee meeting to commemorate their years of

service to the township. "There haven't been two finer people you could work with than these two," Fothergill told the audience. He, Bieberbach and Clydesdale served as the township committee that was replaced by a fivemember council Sunday While, deputy mayor of the committee. Fothergill was elected mayor under the new government. Clydesdale ran against him but the two have maintained a friendly relationship. Overcome with emotion. Clydesdale called the brief presentation "one of the brightest moments of my life." He introduced the new councilmen to the audience and offered to assist them. "I hope the best for all of you." he told the newofficials. Fothergill presented Bieberbach's plaque "to (Page 22 Please)
