A ERR An attempt by Dallas Borough Council to reinstate former patrolman John Fowler at his former full salary was defeated at a meeting of the council last week. Councilman Jerry Machell made the motion to ive the recently re-hired officer his full salary. Harold oe seconded the motion, but Council members Nancy Eckert, William Berti and Willard Newberry voted against the idea. Dr. Craig Aicher was absent from the meeting. . Fowler resigned his position with the Dallas police last fall, but re-applied for the job before it was filled. The post had been advertised at a lower salary, how- ever, and Fowler was rehired at the advertised wage. He was away from the job for two months. Sandy Beach has been rezoned from commercial to residential as of last week. Harveys Lake Borough Council approved the move for a six-acre portion of the beach area which will now be sold in lots of about one acre each. Thomas Garrity, Harveys Lake realtor reported the lots will cost about $25,000 each. He added that five prospective buyers have been waiting for council to approve the zoning change. Two modular housing units will soon be open for use at the State Corrections Institution at Chase. The buildings will hold 104 inmates, and are set up much like dormitories. Two large rooms will be divided into numerous cubicles with beds and lockers and waist- high partitions between each. A day room will separate the two-sleeper quarters. Acting superintendent, Joseph Ryan, explained the modulars will house only low-risk, non-violent inmates, who are nearing the end of their terms. Ten corrections officers, hired in November, will guard the units, and five more will be added within a month. The units are pated behind the prison’s kitchen. Penn State Seed Co., Rte. 309, Kunkle, has received an affirmative answer to its request for a zoning change on a tract of land owned by the company in that area. Dallas Township supervisors, meeting last week, voted to approve the change from B-3 and A-1 to M-2, light industrial. Penn State Seed had received a variance to construct a warehouse and office show- room on the land but later required the zoning change to meet loan qualifications set by the Pennsylvania Industrial Development Authority. William Giberson, RD 1, Noxen, will have his case heard in Luzerne County Court, according to a decision handed down by District Justice Leonard Harvey last week. Giberson is charged with indecent assault and corrupting the morals of a minor in connection with incidents involving a 13-year old girl. The charges were brought by State Police Trooper Stanley J. Jezewski, and stem from incidents on June 26 and 27, 1982. In a preliminary hearing, Harvey ruled sufficient evidence existed to send the case to trial. Giberson was repre- sented by Atty. Joseph Sklarosky. Assistant District Atty. Charles Coslett prosecuted. Giberson is free on $10,000 bail. y Dallas Borough has applied for a $70,000 community development grant to construct sidewalks along Huntsville Road from Franklin to Park Streets. Borough secretary Ralph Garris has reported the grant application is in and engineers have drawn up the plans. However, the community’s per capita in- come may interfere with the project. If the income level is too high for federal grant standards, the grant can be refused. Obituaries death by sisters, Agnes, Bertha, Julia and Helen.
