NEW STREET LIGHTING FOR GRAY
STREET
The Municipal Services Commission
and CPR Construction, builders of
the new town homes on Gray Street,
are working together to install
Period Street lighting on Gray
Street. These lights and fixtures
are similar to those streetlights on
Delaware Street. Additionally, all
utilities will be buried underground
to eliminate unsightly power lines.
These additions are expected to
enhance the value of these
properties and the surrounding area
and is another positive community
redevelopment strategy underway. The
Deemer's Landing Apartment property
owners will use the same street
lighting on 9th Street and on
Washington Streets. For more

GRAY ST. WATER TOWER PAINTING
SCHEDULED
The MSC Commissioners have set a schedule to paint the interior of the water tower located on Gray Street for November 2002. The Commissioners have also agreed to remove the fencing surrounding the tower assisting in the Susi Park redevelopment plan scheduled for next spring. The removal of the fence will allow for a larger park area especially when combined with the additional land area to be donated by the owners of the Deemer's Landing property. Local regulatory and insurance authorities were consulted before this decision was made and both agencies agree that the fence will not affect security or liability of the tower or the stored water. For more information on this, please email Chip Patterson at pattersonc@erols.com or 323-2332 or your Council President, Chris Castagno at 322-9801 or email CastagnoCJ@aol.com
