[RP TownTalk] new sign in front of the Cafritz property on Rt. 1

[Guy Tiberio]

As I told Melissa our boundrey is approximately 150 feet south of Albion
St.running from US1 easterly down to the
railroad tracks. !n 1976 when we put the planters there for the bi-centenial
celebration we received permission
from the city to locate the sign about 60 feet from the corner, actually
within College Park. When I was Mayor in
2005 I had new planters installed again in the same location. We didn't go
further south because of the large
undergrowth in our property. I would suggest we reinstall the sign and
planter on our town property lina ASAP.
Hope this helps  Guy
