Mr. Carducci stated that if he could get clear title to bed of the street in front of the above premises, he would be willing to pay for the cost of installing the street improvements.

These two areas are presently served by private septic tank systems and the new $90,000.00 sewer (across Saxon Woods Park and the Westchester Joint Water Works Resevoir) would be instrumental in making feasible the future con- struction of lateral sewers in these two areas. The secretary was instructed to prepare a letter to Raymond E May, advising them of the substance of Mr. Quadrine's preceding report.
