Price said the township was pre-

$80,000 ‘‘tops’’ including the
engineering fee of almost $10,000.
As an aside, the engineering fee on
this project has raised more than a
few eyebrows of community
members when the charge was an-
nounced at a meeting a few months
ago.
One township political participant
observing from the sidelines com-
mented “It sure costs a lot these
days to study a bridge built over a
creek you can skip across.”
The determination as to the total
cost is of utmost importance to the
township residents as there are no
grant monies involved. Every
phase is being financed by the local
tax effort. As only a specified
amount was budgeted for the
project, it remains to be seen as to
how the town fathers will bridge the
gap financially as the ‘‘cross that
bridge when we come to it’ dead-
line is running out.
Supervisors were asked why they
are not conducting a spring clean up
while Dallas Township is. Super-
visors Gavigan and Wisnieski in-
sisted the landfill could not accom-
modate any more clean-up debris,
and wondered where Dallas
Township is dumping its refuse.
Told the Dallas Township super-
visors said at their meeting
Tuesday they would use the West
Side Landfill, the supervisors were
perplexed. It turned out that Dallas
Township intended to use the West
Side Landfill as late as their
Tuesday meeting, but were in-
formed they could not do so shortly
after the meeting. :
