Y. E. Stanford Railway Co. by the Village of . ama-roneck. It was pointed out that the form of consent near submitted by the 'destchester Street Transportation Co. , Inc. , to the three municipalities was entirely different than the one outlined at the several conferences with the Street Transportation Co. , si=e it now included the operation of trackless trolleys and that the term of the consent had been charged to the full term of the fran- chise. It was also pointed out that the only resolution 110-ff before the Village Board of Trustees is the one from the ';. Y. & Stamford Railway Co. , regarding a lap-over zone between ±kx I.rew Rochelle and G'eaver Street in the Town of !�amaroneck whereby tine one company would operate direct into 1Gew Rochelle.
