Small lot OK for new house By BARBARA MENDOZA FOCUS CORRESPONDENT FRANKLIN - A decision by the Zoning Board of Adjustment Thursday night will allow a woman II to have a single-family home con- structed on an undersized lot at 431 Frederick St. The unanimous decision was made after an attorney for Mary Conboy testified that the small lot size was consistent with surround-" ing properties located near the 5,000-square-foot parcel. "Both the lot (to the right of the property) and in the back are the m same dimensions as we are pro- posing," Paul Sica, attorney for the applicant, told the board. Mr. Sica told the board the ap plicant tried to sell the land for $15,000 to neighbors whose prop- erty adjoined the undersized lot but no one was interested. i The board unanimously ap- proved three variances — mini mum lot size, frontage and rear yard setback — that will allow con- struction of a home on the site.

Since that time, it appears it's been open season on police officers, many of whom have been slapped with so-called "frivo- lous" lawsuits which later proved to be unfounded. This spate of legal warfair only proves the sneaky resourceful- ness of those who attempt to employ every tactic at their dis- posal to get away from taking responsibility for their own ac- tions. This is why municipalities are mandated to bear the finan- cial burden of lawsuits against police officers; too often the public views police as being uncaring violators of the laws they have vowed to uphold and are therefore ready to sue at the drop of a hat on matters that often canTcarry enough weight to get through court. However, at times proper police procedures are violated when an arrest is made. In the view of Mayor Richard Tornquist, when this occurs, officers should be required to foot the bill for their own legal defense. The mayor wants a mechanism put in place for reviewing whether such procedures were followed belieiving that, ulitimaely, problems with police lawsuits become the prob- lems of the township as a whole. Mayor Tornquist has a good point, but it seems the severity of the violation should be the deciding factor in whether a police officer should pay for his/her lawyer fees. Would minor infrac- tions be included in the criteria? There's no across-the-board solution to the problem. In fair- ness, the municipality would have to consider on a case-by-case basis whether rules were violated to the extent as to make the township liable. . .. The matter definitely deserves more dicussion. Letters to the editor RAY Franklin BATEMAN
