BY KEVIN FREIDLANDER Staff Writer

he Middletown schools superintendent released the esti­ T mated tax impact of the district’s referendum plans if township voters were to approve one of the proposals. Schools Superintendent Peter Merluzzi presented the public with four referendum scenerios and their tax impacts on town­ ship residents. The information was presented Jan. 10 at the school board’s special meeting at Middletown North High School.

See related stories on page 1 8 .

The audience in attendance pressured the board to postpone the referendum vote date and, instead, form an ad hoc citizen’s committee to study all aspects of the proposals. The board was hoping to set a March 8 referendum date before those plans were derailed. Merluzzi stressed that tax rate information was preliminary and was subject to change. At Mount Olivet Cemetery in Middletown, police officers pay tribute Saturday to Timothy H. Lake $154 million plan year-old Middletown detective who died last week. See story, page 17. The referendum plan that the district seems to favor is an (Photo by Rich Schultz) estimated $154 million plan that would close five neighborhood elementary schools.

Staff W riter MATAWAN For the first time in many years, two scholarships will be awarded by the Matawan Rotary Club. The $500 scholarships, which are ex­ pected to be given annually, will be given to two graduating seniors who are resi­ dents of Matawan or Aberdeen. To qualify for consideration, a student must be in the top one-third of his class, be involved with school activities, and be a community volunteer. Applications will be $ 1 9 9 5 $ 7 9 5 . accepted until Feb. 15. Jeff Donoghue, who is chairman of the Rotary’s Youth Leadership Program, noted that the scholarship program has been revived in honor of the Matawan Rotary chapter’s 50th anniversary this year. Also, it is the 5th anniversary of the m Matawan Rotary Club’s Charitable Foundation, which is the official sponsor of the scholarships. l i The $1,000, he noted, was raised through a golf outing held last year at the Bamm Hollow Country Club in Middletown. “All donations are 100-percent dona­ tions,” noted Barbara Tuttle, the club sec­ J retary. “There are no administrative costs.” It is one of the many programs the local Rotary Club is gearing towards the youth of the area, he noted.
