Borough Park (continued from page 11) Lions Park, whose playground equipment suffered branch damage following the Oct. 29 snowstorm, remains closed despite temporary repairs made by the Lions Club. Club representative Dave Marino said the area has been cleaned and broken parts replaced. However, according to the inspection done by the borough’s insurance fund, the park will not be reopened until the original railing comes in, he said. The Lions have ordered these parts. “We have been working with Gary (Kratz) to try and get this done while the weather is still good and the children can get use of it. We are disappointed that it still is not open; however, we will keep working on it,” Marino said. Kratz said it would be approximately 60 days until the necessary parts would arrive in the borough. The Lions Club recently completed other work on the playground, which included the addition of a protective finish to the wooden elements. Phone system (continued from page 3) “Each (building) is served by a different PSE&G feed, so both or either one could lose power, although we usually would lose power in both buildings,” Kratz said. He added that the generator powered police headquarters, but failed to work for the administration building. The problem arose because the borough’s phone system is housed in the building that had no power. Volunteers at work on the playground.
