Dear Sir..
Enclosed herewith are two copies of Form TC-91 Application for
Restriction of Speed, on the Glens Falls-East Lake George, Pt.. 13,
S.H, 1666.. This request is for a lengthening of the present zone,
which begins. at the Glens Falls City Line, Station 0#00 and terminates
at Station 22+24 *,authorized by T.C..I"etter of August 16, 1951. .
Compliance with the existing restriction is very poor.
The proposed terminus is at Station 76#00 t, which would result
in a restriction 1-i miles in length. This section is being rapidly
built up,, but pedestrian traffic is very light. I.t is requested that
the necessary investigation be conducted.
Yours truly,

You are well aware that the Queensbury Taxpayer' s Association I
has as one of its -objectives: To serve the Taxpayers of the Town of
Queensbury, in all their interests.
At a Special meeting: of the Association, held on May 26, 1953,,
a resolution was passed by unanimous vote, to give to you, the Town
Board of the.`Town of Queensbury, any and all the help we could in the
dispute with the City _of` Glens Falls relative to a new site for a
dump.
In the event that a n against the Town of Queensbury is
rendered, it is the feeling of he members of, this Association that
your honorable body should not let the matter drop, but to continue
to use every legal. means available,, even if it means going. to the
United States Supreme Court. We must remember, the City of Glens Falls
did reject an offer to have an .incinerator built withiii the last Z-or
3' years.
We stand ready to assist you in any manner possible in this
matter.

There is a very great need for a constable in the South Queens-
169
bury District.
The taxpayers in this area are not being properly serviced.
The only constables in this area are in West Glens Falls and North
Queensbury and they do not service this area.
Therefore to give proper ]protection to the taxpayers of South
Queensbury we need a constable and I would like to apply for this
position.
I have for three years belonged to the Constables'i Association, I
have studied the laws as the State requires; learned civil defence pro-
cedure and first aid, and feel I am well qualified all. aspects
handle a aspects
of a constable c't s duties in this- area. _ `
I am a resident of South Queensbury and a voter in the Township,
stable•and married,
I would appreciate your consideration of this application.

Mr. LeRoy J. Gordon - Ap 30, 1959
Supervisor, Town of Queensbury
Foster Avenue _
Glens Falls, New York-
Dear Mr. -Gordon: °
I would appreciate sincerely the consideration of the Town Board
in a matter which is of interest and concern, I think, to all of us. As
you are aware, at the present time we have two .Well Child Clinics held
each month at the Connunity Chapel in West Glens Falls. These are held
on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at of 30 P.K., with Dr.
L— Norman E. Harvey, Pediatrician, and our Public Health Bureau in charge.
The attendance at these` clinics has been. heavy-durift 1958, Five Hundred
Twenty-five infants and pre-school children dame to 'the clinic for
immunization shots, and" for physical exminatlon. This represents an
average of Forty-three per month., whieh'is far too- many for adequate
service. °
We of the= important phases of this program is the parent-physician
conferene`es, and the parent-mrse relationship. Obviously there is no
opportunity for such guidance when there are so many present.
Dr. Harvey is willing to conduct a third clinic, if the Town
Board would authorize it. The Comity Chapel provides rooms for the
Clinic,' twoF ot their members act as volunteers , equipment. and supplies
have been finished by the Business Womens 1. Group of the Presbyterian
Church,. aiid by Com=nity Chapel. members. Warren County Public Health
Nurses provide the professional management, and assist Dr. Harvey. Dr.
Harvey"s fee is paid by the Town of Queensbury, so that-this would be
the: chief concern.
These clinics are for infants and pre-schoolers , up to school age.
Thank you for your help with this matter. I shall be happy to
discuss it in further detail, if you wish.
L Sincerely,
Is/ Ruth M. Fisher
Public Health Nurse
The matter was referred to Mr. Akins for investigation and report.
