CALLING ON township residents to "remember the spiritual meaning" of the holidays. amid the "brightly-lit trees, wreaths of holly, carols and gifts," Mayor Robert Fothergill last week offered the following season's greetings to Lower residents on behalf of Township Council, Lower's administration and employes : "We wish each of you Christmas to the fullest; to our Jewish friends, a Happy Hanukkah. and to all. a happy. healthy, peaceful New Year." FOTHERGILL also presented Villas firemen with a proclamation last week, honoring the late George H. Costell for his 46 years as a Lower resident and active member of Villas Volunteer Fire Co., his 32 years as chief and his 10 years as county's first fire / marshal and fire coor- ' dinator. George, 63, suffered a . stroke Dec. 5 and died five days later. He was buried * Dec. 14 at Cold Spring ( "Old k Brick") Presbyterian ^ Church cemetery, just a few . miles south of his birthplace * in Burleigh. % DEPUTY MAYOR PegL| gie Bieberbach last week presented Alfreda Davis * with a plaque of a proclamaN tion. honoring her late hus- ^ band and Bieberbach's I- predecessor, Joseph H. * Davis of Villas, who died of * heart failure Aug. 26 after a lingering illness. k He "devoted so much to ^ Lower Township," Bieber ^ bach said. "He's gone, N Freda, but he will never, ever, be forgotten." . LOST LOVED ONES are * missed the most during the ► hoi Idays May y our sweetest memories of them fill the jg hollow * MEMBERS OF the township's Community Standards Review Board ^ (CSRB) have voted unan- * imously to recommend that Township Council reject the latest version of a proposed £ anti-pornography zoning ordinance < No. 85-16). Slated for final Council ac tion in late October, that measure was tabled then and referred to the freshlyformed CSRB after criticism that it was too weak and might subject innocent people to pay legal costs in defending against bogus obscenity charges The CSRB on Dec 9 also decided to ask Township Solicitor Bruce Gorman to attend its 7 p.m. meeting Jan. 13 and explain the ordinance which established the seven-member CSRB earlier this year. SIX DAYS AFTER her unanimous selection as CSRB secretary. Ruth Hart of Villas resigned from the board last month, leaving the required senior citizen seat vacant Deputy Mayor Bieberbach. who fills the required business chair on the CSRB. told her Council colleagues during their work session last week that she wants to see separate township advertisements for the | senior citizen seat and for the CSRB secretary slot, j Bieberbach maintained that ! a CSRB member should not

also serve as board secretary. Councilman Joseph Lonergan pointed out that there are also long-standing vacancies on the Incinerator Authority and its Solid Waste Advisory Council. Township Manager James R. Stump confirmed that only one person (Coast Guard aviator Edward J. DeWitt of Cold Spring) has applied for any of those positions. Council, however, did not ask Stump to post the pending appointments for action or to readvertise those vacancies. Also pending is the proposed Planning Board appointee to a zoning board vacancy. COUNCIL TOOK NO action last week on Mayor Fothergill's proposal last month to revise the recycling schedule. Running deeply in the red, the program was switched in October to twice monthly from a weekly collection schedule. "It is not cost-effective, we know that," Fothergill told his colleagues. "But, you've got to look at the future." By promoting recycling, the -mayor said, the township can help extend the life of the county MUA landfill in Woodbine. "But it's not Lower Township's responsibility to keep that landfill empty." countered Councilman Lonergan. Nevertheless, the municipality should promote "recycling to the utmost," Fothergill

maintained. "The whole thing — it's over our heads," Lonergan said of the $100,000 a year recycling cost. "Nobody watched it." None of the councilmembers linked recycling to the previous week's discussion about burning recyclables in a trash-to-energy incinerator at the closed Harbison-Walker magnesite plant, Sunset Beach. Councilman David F. Brand Jr., who missed that special Council session, suggested "there may be some advantage" in township participation with the proposed countywide recycling plan being weighed by the county MUA. "They want a commitment from everybody before they pursue it," Dave." Lonergan noted, adding that the MUA is offering no return commitment on its price for municipal recyclables. AFTER CONSIDERABLE discussion at last week's work session. Council unanimously approved the second recent change in the holiday trash collection schedule. Holiday trash will now be collected the day afterward, along with that day's load. That schedule replaces one that went into effect Oct. 1 that was designed to save $11,000 a year in overtime pay by collecting a neighborhood's holiday trash on the same day the following week.

But Mayor Fothergill, Councilmen Brand and Robert Conroy have said they received too many complaints about that schedule. Before council approved it, holiday trash was collected on Saturdays with overtime to trash crews. Deputy Mayor Bieberbach proposed the new dayafter collection. COUNCIL VOTED 4-1 during its regular meeting last week to approve vacating Charmaine Avenue, Villas, between Evergreen and Cloverdale avenues. That was first reading; final Council action on the un numbered ordinance to vacate the paper street, will follow an 8 p.m. public hearing Jan. 20. "Do the people in that area want it?" asked Councilman Lonergan. Councilman Conroy replied that he's received calls to that effect while Solicitor Bruce Gorman said that, if residents don't want the street vacated, they'll be sure to voice their objections at the public hearing. Deputy Mayor Bieberbach voted against first reading "because it wasn't on the agenda and I don't think it should be." AS OF JANUARY, Bieberbach told township activist Mary Baxter, five members of the municipal health board will be paid according to the number of meetings they attend. "That was done tonight," the deputy mayor said of Council's unanimous approval during last week's work session of $l,000-a-year paychecks for the (Page 40 Please)
