Motorists in West Marlborough Township can expect to see a greater police presence in coming weeks. At their April 2 meeting, the township supervisors asked Robert "Clarkie" Clarke to focus his attention on several "hot spots" they have identified. One priority is slowing down traffic on Springdell Road from Route 841 to Chapel Road; on Route 841 from Greenlawn to Wertz Roads; on Route 842 from Newark to Byrd Roads; and along all of Route 82. He was also asked to watch for drivers rolling through the four-way stop signs along Newark Road at the intersections with Routes 926 and 842 and to target illegal parkers in Springdell village. Clarkie is the chief of the East Marlborough Police Department; West Marlborough contracts with that department to provide 12 hours of service each month.
In other business, the supervisors approved a stormwater management plan submitted by the owners of 427 West Street Road, who plan to demolish their current house and build a new one on their one-acre property.
Also, supervisor Hugh Lofting said he is looking into securing a grant to install larger concrete culverts along Tapeworm Road. The funding would be through the state's dirt and gravel road program.
