Residents of the Newlin Greene development off Route 842 alerted the Newlin Township supervisors to the piles of anti-skid material that have accumulated along the edges of their property after recent snowstorms, according to "The Newlin News." The residents said it's ugly and they couldn't clean it up properly or spread it by raking.
Supervisor Rob Pearson explained that the township road crews use the crushed limestone material to improve traction on the roads, and sometimes the spreader gets clogged and then will dump "an unusual amount of the material in one spot." He said he'll make sure that the bulk of it gets removed.
He noted that the limestone material "is more effective and less hazardous to vegetation than road salt."
