TOWNSHIP MUA members are expected to adopt a resolution (No. 86-A-56) tonight that will amend the water rate resolution (No. 85- A -68) of last year. "What we're proposing," explained MUA executive director James R. Stump, township manager, is to bill all dwelling units 4500 for connection charges rather than $500 per water meter. According to the existing resolution, some multi-unit buildings with a single meter pay the ame $500 as a single-family home, Stump noted. The new resolution would eliminate that inequity. Approved on first reading June 1 1 . Resolution 86-A-56 is slated for final MUA action after a public hearing at 7:30 p.m. in the authority administration building, 2900 Bayshore Rd, Villas. CAPT. DON DOUGLASS reports that township police last month arrested 42 adults and eight juveniles, including 10 drunk driving suspects, while investigating one rape, 12 assaults (11 simple), 12 burglaries, 33 larcenies, one motor vehicle theft and one arson. The reported rape has been "cleared" by police, however, Douglass explained, because the alleged victim "refused to cooperate." The arson was a grass fire started by youths off Nummytown Road, he said.

Police handled 543 general and 352 criminal complaints last month plus 51 crashes compared to 41 crashes, 397 criminal and 565 general complaints in May. Then, they arrested 37 adults and 10 juveniles, including three suspected drunk drivers, while investigating eight assaults ( five simple ) , 22 burglaries, 30 larcenies and one motor vehicle theft. Last month, $16,828 in property was reported stolen and $4,100 recovered compared to May when $41,303 was reported stolen and $2,591 recovered. Police cleared 20 percent of major crimes and 94 percent of less serious offenses in June while in May they cleared 26 percent of major and 93 percent of lesser crimes. The force handed out 146 traffic tickets last month, completing 545 property checks and 33,760 miles on patrol. In May, police issued 120 traffic tickets, checked 242 properties and patrolled 46,864 miles. CHIEF RAY BROWN reports that Town Dank firefighters answered eight alarms last month, two less than May. Smoke eaters fought two grass fires on the afternoon of June 17 and another the following day. The first was at 513 Mistletoe Rd., Cape May Beach, the second at the North Cape May Wawa, and the third 1 at Ferry and Caspian roads there.

Town Bankers started June with a false smoke report June 6 at Glade and Town Bank roads, North Cape May. They answered an afternoon call to a trash fire June 9 at 220 Old Mill Rd.. North Cape May, but it was out when they arrived. On June 25, the firemen battled an afternoon woods fire off Fire Lane Near Schooner Landing and answered a smoke detector alarm two days later at the Cape May-Lewes Ferry warehouse, North Cape May. They ended the month with a 4:52 a.m. call to a faulty light ballast at Channels Apartments. North Cape May. JUNE FIRE reports are (tending from Erma and Villas volunteers. PLANNERS conditionally approved Cape Island Associates' application, during a special June 26 meeting, to expand its Route 9 Campground. Erma, by 306 campsites. According to their "Notice of Decision" last r week on the June 26 meeting, planners also con - ditionally approved I Coastal Research & I Development's preliminary site plans for "Lighthouse Pointe," a commercial-residential- , marina complex planned I for the Wildwood Yacht Basin, Shawcrest. Philadelphians Benjamin and Elsie Rizzo won conditional approval for a minor subdivision and i hardship variance to I create two undersized lots ' at 135 Racetrack Dr., Town Bank. "In light of new information," the "Notice" records, Albert Mu^-

chetti's application for site plan approval on "The Cloisters," 24 residential units at Raleigh and S. Station avenues, Diamond Beach, will be reconsidered at the planners' July 17 meeting. That application was denied June 19. ZONERS ALSO held a special meeting June 26 and were scheduled to come up with findings of fact then in the High Roller Limousine case. That matter was tabled until a July 3 meeting, though, according to the zoners' "Notice of Decision" published that day. The outcome of that session was not known before this column's holiday deadline. But the decision should be published tomorrow. By then, however, the issue may be decided by Superior Court Assignment Judge Richard J. Williams who ordered the finding of fact for his July 7 rehearing of the case. Zoners ruled April 3 that High Roller shouldn't be operating its taxi service in an R-l (residential) zone at Foster Avenue, Cold Spring. Arguing that the company doesn't actually "operate" from that location, High Roller attorney Frederick W. Schmidt Jr. asked Williams for a restraining order, in part to block the township from slapping daily tickets on High Roller owners, Henry and Nancy Needles. Williams did block those

tickets, and ordered the findings of fact. DURING THEIR special June 26 meeting, zoners denied one hardship variance for construction of a single-family home on an undersized lot at 129 Town Bank Rd., North Cape May, "with the condition that the application will be approved if the adjacent property owner fails to purchase subject property within 30 days." Zoners approved hardship variances for construction of single-family homes on undersized lots at: 20 St. John Ave., Fishing Creek; 9 Goverdale Ave., Villas; 411 Forest Rd., Villas, and 122 Sunset Dr., Fishing Creek. They conditionally approved a hardship variance for construction of a singlefamily home on an undersized Villas lot at 225 W. Drum bed Road. They approved hardship and use variances plus a dune site review application from Villas Fishing Gub to build a roof deck at Pennsylvania Avenue and Millman Lane They conditionally approved Robert J. Bartle's use variance application to operate a tooling and manufacturing shop in an R-2 (residential)

zone on Shunpike Road, and Elwood S. Garretson's hardship variance for a television satellite reception dish on the porch roof of his home, 546 seashore Rd., Cold Spring. His request was denied April 3, but Donald Wolfe, president of Worldwide Satellite TV Systems, told zoners May 1 that Federal Communications Commission regulations supercede municipal laws like Lowe's that ban the satellite dishes on roofs. Tabled until July 3 was Robert and Lynne Walter's use and hardship variance applications to build two duplexes on undersized Millman Lane lots, Villas. CAPE ISLAND Lodge 30's Masonic Fellowship plans a picnic Saturday, Noon -6 p.m. at its hall on Old Shore Road, Cold Spring. All are welcome to enjoy spare ribs, chicken, hot dogs and hamburgers for a donation to the lodge. REMINDERS - The county Epilepsy Self-Help Program meets 7:30 p.m. Monday in the Recreation Center behind Township Hall, 2600 Bayshore Rd.. Villas. •Lower's Community Standards Review Board meets in Township Hall on Monday at 7 p.m. • Environmental commissioners and the Municipal Incinerator Authority are both scheduled for 7:30 p.m. meetings Tuesday in Township Hall.

•Lower's Elementary school board also meets Tuesday, at 8 p.m. in Sandman Consolidated School library, 838 Seashore Rd., Cold Spring. Increasing Pollution Fines Urged Republican congressional candidate Alfred "Bud" Bennington is calling for stiffer fines on polluters in the wake of the recent Tuckahoe River closing. Bennington, a Northfield attorney, said that if unauthorized dumping "willfully" took place in the river, the responsible party would be liable for up to $25,000 in fines. "That's not enough for wrecking a summer tourist economy," said Bennington. "Let's go up to $75,000 or $100,000 in fines. I'd also permanently pull their license if they are a septic tank pumping firm, and I'd embargo any principal member of the firm from doing business with the public again."
