DOVE Post Staff "JACKSON TOWNSHIP - At 6:10 p.m. July 3, about 20 resi- dents, representatives of the fire and ambulance companies and veterans of World War II, Korea, Vietnam and Operation Desert Storm recited the Pledge of Alle- giance for the first time at the P¥nships new flagpole. Atthe ceremony dedicating the re flagpole and its three new flags, Senator Charles Lemmond said, “This isn’t Abra- ham Lincoln's Gettysburg Ad- dress, but it’s still important — it's another small celebration of free- dom and July 4. Nobody is cele- brating it better than here in Jackson Township, with a new flagpole and flags. Fly them proudly!” " Lemmond donated the state flag, while Representative George Hasay donated the American flag and the township purchased a POW/MIA flag to fly together. Joy Bird prepared the plantings and decorations around the flagpole. Warrant Officer David McCol- lum, USMC, represented the mili- tary, while members of the Dad- dow-Isaacs American Legion Post 672 and the Vietnam Veterans of America Post 539 formed an honor guard for the ceremony, presided over by Post 672 commanderJohn Charney and senior vice-com- mander Walter I. Galka. After a break for cake and cof- fee, the supervisors held their regular meeting, at which they unanimously approved an amend- ment to the open burning ordi- nance. The amendment prohibits burning after dark and describes approved incinerators, which must be covered with a wire mesh lid. The supervisors unanimously awarded a $13,875 bid for con- struction of a salt shed with pre- cast concrete walls to Sollenberg Silo Corporation of Chambers- burg. Bids for repairs to West Ridge Street and replacement of the furnace for the apartment over the township garage were unani- mously rejected because they didn't contain complete informa- tion from the vendors. The supervisors also unani- mously appointed Walter Glogow- ski recycling coordinator. POST PHOTO/GRACE R.

Two subdivisions ok'd, one will wait By GRACE R. DOVE Post Staff FRANKLIN TOWNSHIP - The planning commission gave condi- tional approvals to two subdivi- sions and tabled a third at its regular June 25 meeting. According to secretary Sandra Rape, Barry Reese received condi- tional approval to subdivide two lots totaling 40 acres and fronting on. Demunds Road in order to build a second access road into Country Village Trailer Park. Be- fore Reese may build the road, he must design it within the setback lines, file aland development plan with the township and obtain a highway occupancy permit from Luzerne County, which owns Demunds Road. The trailer park's only access road is located on Orange Road between Reese Excavating and Quality Metal Products. William Perry received condi- tional approval to subdivide two lots bordered bv Ransom and Flat Rock roads, but must show the setbacks on his final plan. Action on a plan by John and David Hilstolsky to subdivide 8.72 acres on Coon Road into four lots was tabled, pending corrections to the deed and the outcome of legal action in Luzerne County court. Also, two residents submitted sketch plans for subdivisions, which the planning commission hasn't acted on yet, Race said. Willard Bullock wants to sub- Camp invited to Harvard seminar Dr. William D.

DOVE Post Staff LEHMAN - If the township and Luzerne County approve Francis Cornell's plans, the Back Moun- tain could soon be home to a go- cart track featuring mini-replicas of Winston Cup racers and a miniature golf course. The cloverleaf-shaped track would have traffic lights and a pit area. Drivers would race against the clock rather than against one another. The facility would also include a small refreshment stand, Cornell said. Cornell and surveyor Frank Grabowski want to develop the facility on a six-acre parcel bounded by Route 118, Trojan Road and Cornell Road, presently zoned agricultural. Although Cornell originally asked the planning commission and zoning board to change the zoning from A-1 (agricultural) to B-2 (business), planning commis- sion member Dave Sutton said it wasn't necessary. “Commercial recreation ven- tures are allowed in the agricul- tural district, with approval from the zoning hearing board,” he said. “This certainly fits that descrip- tion. If you rezone it to business, you could end up with things like cafes, restaurants, billiard halls and amusement parks. It would be spot zoning, which the super- visors generally are reluctant to do.” Before Cornell can proceed with his plans, the zoning hearing board, the township supervisors, Luzerne County and the state Department of Environmental Resources must approve them. * All programs are free of charge.
