An increase in multi-family homes in residential areas is yet Use Variance Sought (Continued from Page 1) islands between the parking area. Mr.

Rother said any action by this board would not result in any tax abatement, which would require separate action. He said the borough would receive $16,380 in taxes plus any income above the investors' return. Several residents asked the architect if it would be feasible to have the exit and entrance on Bloomfield Ave. He said it would be possible but the driveway would have to rise steeply to meet the parking level and this would introduce the noise factor for tenants and neighbors. He said the exit onto Forest Ave.

was for autos only. Under cross examination Mr. Rother said the difference between a limited dividend corporation, such as Ridge House Associates, and a non- profit corporation, such as the Verona Senior Citizen Housing Corporation which proposed the Fairview Ave. project, was that "in the limited partnership the investors receive an eight percent rents are the same." He said the occupancy requirements under HUD and HFA "are essentially the projects are permitted residency Mr. Rother also said, as developers are ready to relinquish our rights to the town to decide who may reside there." Mr.

Rother's second witness was Albert Rubin, a real estate appraiser, consultant and broker with: a West Orange office. Mr. Rubin, who said he lives in Verona, was identified as the third member of Ridge House Associates.

With the recent Supreme Court ruling approving occupancy by other than blood relatives, it is conceivable that financial need may force many older citizens to rent out rooms in their homes creating many new problems, such as parking, in residential areas." His statement further raises the question: "How did the determination to use HUD funding evolve?" Mayor Greco answers that a senior citizen housing project was planned for Fairview Ave. The Mayor and Council supported the proposal, which was to be funded through HUD in exactly the same manner as the 799 project.

To the questions of who will live in the proposed senior citizen housing and how the selection will be made, the Mayor answers, "There will be 47 housing units for seniors.

Since establishing himself as a top entertainer at Grossinger's Hotel and For A Fun-Filled If you're considering taking a family camping trip, the trip is likely to be an unforgettable experience. Unforgettable as a relaxing, back-to nature vacation or unforgettable as a disasterous weekend in the wilderness. The good times can outweigh the mishaps if campers will observe some simple safety and health rules, according to Milton Nachbar, director of loss control for CNA Insurance.

Mr. a veteran camper, offers the following suggestions as ways to lessen the risks of accidents during the camping trip: Inexperienced campers might try a "shakedown" or dry run of campsite procedures before making the first trip. When pulling a utility or camping trailer, limit the load to one-half the car's weight to decrease the possibility of accidents or breakdowns. Make a thorough check of all camping equipment to make sure it is in functioning order before you begin. Select a well -drained campsite with good circulation and a combination of shade and sun.

Use a designated fireplace, whenever possible. If you must devise a campfire, select a cleared area which is sheltered from the wind. (A small fire is best and safer for cooking and comfort.) When extinguishing your campfire, first let it die down. Next, break up the coals, spread the partly burnt pieces, soak them, stir and soak again. Repeat the process and cover the area with dirt and sand.

(A poorly extinguished fire can travel underground, feeding on dry materials and break out again davs later.)
