traffic, and said it would also
provide drivers along Manor
Drive with a tempting shortcut
to Carverton Road.
“An access road would now
provide drivers (who want to get
to Eighth Street) with a nice
shortcut through (Sunrise Es-
tates), and the residents of that
development and myself, as
well, don't want to see that
happen. That is not an alterna-
tive as I see it. But if the
(Kingston Township) Supervi-
sors say I have to do it, I will.”

John Halbing
Developer
Halbing instead thought the
installation of an emergency ac-
cess road, with a gate that
would take only seconds for
emergency personnel to open,
would be a better fit, and would
benefit both subdivisions in an
emergency.
The developer said since Sun-
rise Estates has only one road
into the development, emer-
gency access between Windsor
Farms and the existing neigh-
borhood would provide a back-
up entrance for both.
“Unfortunately, because of
the placement of (Windsor
Farms), we don’t have a choice,”
said Halbing. “I'm very aware of
the concerns of the surround-
ing communities.
“My first concern is with my
44 customers, and second with
the surrounding homes. We
must take all of these things
into consideration, and come
up with the best possible solu-
tion.”
Steever also voiced concerns
over what she said were waivers
given to developments that had
only one means of entry and
exit. She said the township
subdivision ordinance requires
developments to have two

John Versari said after speak-

Ben Gorey, there are no ordi-
nances of that nature on record
in the township. |
“There is no ordinance stating
that a development is required
to have two means of entry and
exit,” said Versari. “Maple Crest
was developed within the last
five years, and it only has one
entrance and exit.”
Versari proposed a 40-day ex-
tension before a decision will be
made on the Windsor Farms

township Board of Supervisors
April 19.
The proposal overturned an
earlier vote by the board, which
denied Halbing and his associ-
ates a 30-day extension before
the Supervisors would decide
on approving the subdivisions
preliminary plans or not.
“After reading different situa-
tions throughout the country
similar to this one, our legal
counsel recommended ‘that we
should take that avenue,” said
Versari. “It would also give (Hal-
bing) extra time to rectify the
problems in his original plan.”
Dallas High School will pre-
sent “Our Town,” by Thornton
Wilder on Friday, April 26 and
Saturday, April 27 in the high
school auditorium. In his pre-
sentation of a town at the turn
of the last century, Wilder ‘has
represented in a universal and
simple way our town, this town,
every town.
The Stage Manager tells us
“This is the way we were... at the
beginning of the Twentieth Cen-
tury. This is the way we were —
in our growing up and in our
marrying, and in our living and
in our dying.” Wilder portrays
life simply and illuminates pat-
terns of human experience that
remain unchanged in the face of
time.
