MONTGOMERY The Township Committee on Sept. 21 authorized the installation of water lines for fire safety purposes along River Road north of Dead Tree Run Road, ending at Catbriar Court.
The fire marshall makes recommendations for the extension of water lines to provide hydrant service fire protection, Township Administrator Donator Nieman explained, with funding coming from money deposited by developers for this purpose.
Mr. Nieman said he was not sure when the construction would begin for the project, noting that the contractors for the project have to be approved by New Jersey American Water formerly Elizabethtown Water Co.
The cost for the project is $41,969.
