They are requesting a waiver of curb and sidewalk for Block 3801, Lot 66, Zone R-1 located at 918 Central Avenue. Mr. Howell stated that there is no sidewalk for a mile along Central Avenue and that there is a large gas main in front of the property where he proposes to build. He said it would cost $22,000.00 to install curb and sidewalk because of the location of the gas main. A letter from South Jersey Gas confirms the location of the gas main.
