GROVE ST. TROLLEY PLEAS HEARD
(Continued from page 1)
many people have any idea of. The talk of the flshermen being a detriment is ridiculous. There has not been the slightest trouble with them In ten years A bua line has been spoken of. No bn.'- line could possibly tnke qare of thi bualness that there Is at thc Ilttle dock Trolleys are being forced out of bualnesa all over the country and some villagt boards imvo saved the aituation by their timely help.
The Grove street trolley has been a help to the village and a joy, to many a woman and child .seeking access to the village beaches. During the war thousands of soldiers were carried down to the point and a nickel was never collected from any of them"
Ernest S. Randall also .spoke in favor of the trolley and donated the right of way for drainage. He recalled the fact that he was on the board at the time the trolley started.
Trutseo Maxson thought that Bln¬ drlm should be commended for (his service to the village, that the burden was too heavy at the start and that the Board bad no desire in tho worid to force the Ilttle road out of business. A. T, Davison attorney for the Srd Ave. "L". in New York started that flxing the road on each side of the tracks and between the rails was a relic of the horse car days. He stated that a franchise could be granted by the vil¬ lage board and that if one existed the board could change it. The trolley should not be required to pay the cost of paving the road at all.
C. Herbert Kerr testifled that a better class of people had been brought to Freeport since the trolley went-in and recalled some sales down in Bayview section.
I^t was flnally decided to lay the mat¬ ter over until next meeting in order to give Bindlm an opportunity to see Just what he could do in the matter and when he puts a proposition to the vi|. lage the village will be able to act upon it with something as a basis.
It was reported that tbe steam roller In the Onslow Moore Development bad broken the curt) In front of a man's house and that if the people in that section wanted theU- little "ishtnds" In the midtle of thc.rdad they would have to stand a tiad road as the machine cannot be used there at tbe present time.
Spite Fence jMaouMd ^^ The matter of elevating the flre whistle on the power house was
applied for aome method of getting th(t^ fence taken down claiming that it was a menace to the health of his wife. The Board agreed> thi;^ the erection of a spite fence waa,^ ffetestable thing but that they couid rtoC order it taken d<5wn unless it could be proven tbat it was menace to public health. A great deal of time was taken up In discussing a "spite horse block" that had also been erected by one of these amiable families, a. Dlmon Smltb brought up the mat- ¦er of water rentals not being paid, be¬ cause of the fact that some of the houses are not listed nnd are not on the books of the village. He suggested thnt it be advertised that if new additions of faucets, batb.a, etc., were not reported md If bllla were not paid at once, the wnter would be shut off. The boanl vn.ssed a resolution on February 9 fo the effect that they would give people «)xty days notice. It was .suggested by lhe iiresident that an Inspection be made if ail houses nnd that the water connec¬ tions bo checked up. Thnt a printed form he made and handed to each hou.se jwnor to flll out, .showing the number it fnucet.s. etc. Comparison with the /illage liooks would .serve as a check.
It wa.s llnnlly decided to advertl.se in 00th of the village papers to the effecl that the wnter would be shtit off on my consumer who was In arrears sixty lays nfler notico wns given. Alao to liave tho.so who have bought houses -lincc May 1, 1920, to report .same.
At thU time the offlcial ma.scot of tbe <oar(l, a largt.' gray cat. decided that he lad bonrd enough, and went to sleep )n a pile of tbe village treasurer's lapcrf, while the press glared at him vith jealous envy. ^
A request was received from the Kl¬ ein Motor Sales Company to erect a (ign over their .showrooms on Merrick oad, and al.so to placo a .sign on Orove ¦ treet at the entrance to their service .tntion.
^\nnl Police Force Increased A petition signed by 185 taxpayer.-j of he village was recHyed, requesting that he village police force be doubled. That 7 polic(!mo.'i were too few for Sfi miles 'f Htreots, l)ut the matter was not acted ipon.
Chief John N. Hartman stated that he had already asked for ton .additional mon but that his request had been de¬ nied. He said that it was possible to ¦)atrol all the atreets only at night and that during the day only Main street was patrolled. He stated that all of the robberies in the village had bap- (lened before 9 p. m., the tlmo when the mon go on poat. With ten more men, he said that he would be able to have< the villi^e patrolled day and night, every day of tho year.
It ia a fact that Chief Hartman haa been on the atreeta all night long aev- -¦ral nights a week In an effort to give the village the best possible service with tho means that ho has at hla com¬ mand.
He also mentioned the fact that if the department had a car it would be po.ssible to cover a good deal more ground than they do now.
The matter of special police was brought up and It was found that there were thirty special offlcers 'who bad applied for the Job Just to have a little authority and a badge. President Christie aaked that the chief present a list of all or the specials and that he check off those who nre willing and ready to be called upon at all times. The rest are to be relieved of their re¬ sponsibilities.
It was voted to appoint a police siSr- geou'for tbe department in order to examine applicants for the force, etc.
To make it fair to aul msdiooa oC the! vUlige. the matter was left open until' it could be learned whether any of the! village dortors Would apply for the' position. If not. one will be appointed j at a later meeting. The offloe waa dis- j continued aevsral months a^fo with Dr.; Leo Halpin as the last Incumbent.
Paridng AntomoMles j
The important matter, ot parking! cars on Main street was'brought up by' Chief Hartman and discussed at' length. It was flnally decided to have \ cars parked on Olive Boulevard be-i tween' Main and Orove streeta and to 1 have hucksters' wagons on the other • side of Olive Boulevard between Main and Henry. This Idea of a public mar¬ ket was started by Trustee Pearsall last summer.
People can no longer leave the cars' on Main street between Railroad ave- j nue and Merrick road while they at¬ tend the movies. Tbe time limit for' parking on Main street will be. flfteen | minutes, subject to the observation of the police. j
T{»e Village Counsel was Instructed j to draw up an ordinance that will make j It a violation for hucksters to stand In i any other place than designated spots and suitable markers will be placed in position as soon as possible.
It was voted to ask the superin¬ tendent of tbe L. I. Traction Company to be present at tbe next Board meet-i Ing for the purpose of taking up the matter of doing away with the switch ' at tbe railroad tracks. At the present i time it is a great detriment to trafflc. I
