Dear Mr. Gerling, While reading the \Village Re- port,\ in the\ June 10 issue of the Herald Mail, I noticed that it started off thus: \For the past tw:> months, the Village Board ha -> c £ent considerable time at meetings preparing and approv- ing ^./\budget for 1964-65, going oyer, .vpeclfica'tions for streets to ;be rebuilt and repaved.\ Now, gentlemen, again you have left Railroad Street, off your list. Why? Further down, the \Re-* port\ pays, \You have probably • noticed the trees.\ and goes on to explain 'that the vfllage has planted new trees in various areas. Once again, gentlemen, •you have not kept your prom- ise »to trim off: thp huge dead limbs on the 'tr^es that line Rail- road. Street. Why? The report also says that another improve- ment in the village will be the paving of ?.n ar*»a at the Post Office to provide off-street park- ing. .The report adds \this is something for which there is a definite need.\ In other words, the pp.ving of Railroad Street is not a definite need. Why? The report al?o says something about catch basins. Whenever we have c lengthy rain, the Eastern half of _ Railroad; Street is a pic- ture of one of our famous Finger Lakes because the ca'teh b?sins on this street are built' too high. We all know here that we are the proud owners of the highest and driest catch basins in the village. Why? The report *»l.o c goes on to say that this group of men .has the welfare of the village in mind.' and are doing *». splendid job in accomplishing their daily work. Now let us qualify \welfare.\ You state you have the welfare • of the village. You did not men- tion the- welfare of the • people. Remember Lincoln ? •Some place alons: the road that led to your high office, you gentlemen have overlooked an area that needs your welfare, or Staff, and published last year, Still Seems, attention, or wihatever you wish ' not more SOi • J - v~\-'v ':'.• to call It That area is Rail-Street • »-j • and Water Street over the Thom- as Creek bridge.

Yes, we are also pretty proud of our fire depart- ment pnd we cannot blame, them for not driving their equipment over that dilapidated excuse of a bridge; When a car drives over it. the noise is similar, to a sonic •ibooro. , . Consequent^,. tell .me how you ! can have the welfare of. these families in mind when you know that, the village fire truck will not drive over that bridge. Why?
