  1. What's with the livestream videos of the planning & zoning boards lately? Who keeps on sabotaging the system so that the residents won't know what's been going on? FAA needs to start posting his videos again so we can finally have transparency about what these boards are doing behind our backs.

  4. The 3% C-section rate is inaccurate.
    Tru Birth refuses anyone about whom there is the slightest risk of trouble. That is why they have a lower C-section rate. Not because they have some kind of technique.

  5. How many stillbirths at TRu? What do they do when there's an emergency such as cord prolapse where you have 3 minutes to deliver a healthy baby via emergency Csection? can they do an emergeny C section on location?

  6. Fwd from dpt of transportation

    Good afternoon,

     

    Hazardous routes are determined by the district of residence and the municipality.  You would need to contact Lakewood BOE directly for any transportation services questions

    1. FACT - Hazardous routes is irrelevant. The rule is a town offering subscription /courtesy busing cannot charge lunch recipients. There is really no need to discuss why the township is offering the busing - it happens to be the township considers the entire Lakewood hazardous and that is why they offer busing to everyone (per letter).. (I am pretty sure they did not need to do that they could've just said we are offering subscription busing cause we feel like it and we are paying for it like they are now.) The bottom line is the busing is officially subscription and they can not charge anyone on the lunch program.

    2. What is being done about this?
      how do we force township/BOE or LSTA from charging people on the lunch program.
