Both bids included the high school building and a rear field which was not part of the bid specifica­ tions. Although the third bid was con­ forming, the council chose to reject it as well. The council had considered seeking bids for the high school, the rear field and the adjacent community center, but in September voted to limit the bidding to the high school. The three components are part of a tract the borough purchased sev­ eral years ago from the Matawan- Aberdeen Regional Board of Education. Clifton cast the tie-breaking vote in the September decision, with Democratic council members Patrick Falcon, Jim Shea and Laurie Zalepka casting negative votes. Falcon and Shea had favored taking bids on the community center as well, to gain a clear idea of the building’s worth.

I'm confident we'll he able to hit the ground running to bat­ tle whatever ‘Old Man Winter' throws at us." said Public Works Director Lawrence M.-Werger. In the past several years, several aging dump trucks and pickup have a modern fleet of equipment,” Brodsky said. The equipment is housed in a new storage building at the public w orks facility on Kanes Lane where the temperature can be maintained at 50 degrees. Keeping the trucks warm allows public works crews to get on the road faster. Previously equipment had to be stored in the parking lot and during severe cold spells it took about a half hour to warm up the hydraulic equipment, Werger said. Plans to build a second section of the storage building are being reviewed for design changes to make the best use of the space in the most cost effective manner. According to Werger. construction of the second storage section could begin as early as next spring. The fleet is also inspected regu­ larly to ensure that all equipment will operate at peak performance. Routine maintenance is handled by the township’s in-honse mechanics. Plow blades and steel mushroom skid plates were replaced on several plows this year, Werger added. 1 6 INDEPENDENT, DECEMBER 9, 1998 Keyport concerned Shoppers cautioned to about water pressure examine toys carefully

Sports Big D the big difference for Keyport

BY LINDSEY SIEGLE______Staff Writer

here were so many big plays by the Keyport defense on Saturday that it Tis not possible to say which one was most important. The goal-line stand? Ros Lee’s fumble recovery? Kareem Matthews’ running down Pete Vincelli after he got behind the secondary? Richie Perez’s fourth-quarter interception? Not making any one of those plays could have reversed the outcome of die Red Raiders’ 6-3 victory over Shore Regional in the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association Central Jersey Group I title game. The goal-line stand let the West Long Branch school’s team know what it was in for as the Red Raiders sought to avenge their only loss of the season. The Blue Devils drove from their own 29 down to the Keyport goal line only to turn the ball over on downs as quarterback Pat O ’Neill was held short o f the end zone on a fourth- and-goal attempt from the 1-yard line. O’Neill, attempting to get in on the quarterback sneak, was met by Pete Christathakis and a host of other Red Raiders as he fell just inches short of the end zone. On the previous play, a third-and-goal from the 3-yard line, Evan Doucette stacked up Ben Byrd, Shore’s hard-running fullback who had powered the Blue Devils to their earlier victory in October. “When we stuck them it was all over,” Christathakis said. “We knew the game was ours.” FIGHTING FOR YARDAGE — Andre Lee of Keyport High School stretches for an extra yard as he gets tripped up by Shore Perhaps Christathakis and his team­ Regional’s Frank Caltabilota. mates knew, but there was still more than Augusto F.
