by Kingston Township Board of
Supervisors to request that
Meadowcrest, a housing
development of the Luzerne
County Housing Authority, be
hooked-in to the Dallas Area
Municipal Authority Sewer
System, which became
operational March 2. The action
was voted on and approved at
the board’s meeting March 8,
after D.A.M.A. solicitor Merton
Jones reported he has found a
legal precedent which should be
used to force the housing
development to hook-in to
D.A.M.A. lines.
Solicitor Jones advised the
supervisory board to take the
legal action if the county
housing authority refused to
meet township demands.

money at this time, and cited
the fact that the police budget

crease and yet hold taxes at the

sary to delay paving of some
streets. He added that Southside
Drive would be paved, but not in
the immediate future.

the township building. His office
hours are 8:30 to 4:30, five days

grounds before you plant them,
says J. Robert Nuss, Extension
ornamental horticulturist at
The Pennsylvania State Univer-

plants too close together, not
realizing how crowded they
become as they grow larger.
