It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone. A part of us went with you, the day God took you home. So many times we think of you. So many times we cry, If love could have saved you, You never would have died, Now to your grave we travel, The flowers we place with care, But no one knows the heartache, As we turn to leave you there. Sadly missed by Husband, Daughters, Relatives and Friends. * Dallas. Thomas R. Bunney to Mary Ellen Bunney, RD 3, Box 202, Dallas, 18612, property Jackson Twp. Richard A. Lane to Carolyn anddJos. E.

Chairman Kindler said the Authority will open the bids at its meeting September 13, and may award a contract at its October meeting. “Our solicitor advised us to reject all the bids and advertise for new bids because the bid is com- petitive and to avoid legal compli- cations regarding who is the lowest bidder,” said Kindler. Authority Chairman Kindler briefed the crowd present on the history of the project, but authority members were unable to answer the residents questions concerning project cost. About 270 township residents who now use private septic tanks for their sewage will be required to hook into the system. Jackson Township taxpayers are responsible for payment of the $985,000 state PENNVEST loan which has a one percent interest rate and is required to be paid over a 20 year period. “By October we should be close to knowing how much it would cost per household,” said Kindler. The state ordered the Authority to start the project more than five years ago, but the township did not have the funds to proceed. The township was awarded a $2.5 mil- lion, grant from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to help finance the project, and in Decem- ber 1986 received an opening bid of $3,231,513. In June of 1988 the state awarded Jackson Township a low- interest PENNVEST loan for the amount of $985,000 to help make up the difference in project financing. Blan Hillside Road ata wage of $ hour.
