- Lakewood Mayor calls out the LIC for playing shtick and not allowing public comments after a resident mentioned it at the township meeting. The mayor said the LIC should allow comments during the meeting just like the township.
Submitted regarding banquet hall ordinance
Excuse me Mr. Mayor, why would you tell the residents that they should speak at the planning board meeting when this ordinance gets reviewed? Surely you know that the planning board does not allow a public comment portion for proposed ordinance reviews. They only let the public voice their concerns on land development applications. The last time the public tried communicating their opinions at an ordinance review, the Board attorney did not allow them to do so. He told them that they should instead express themselves during the committee's public meeting. So, here's the problem Mr. Mayor: You tell us to talk to them, and they tell us to talk to you. This way what you accomplish is that the one hundred thousand township residents (which are not school & banquet hall owners) will have their concerns ignored through this politician-style game you’re playing. And by the time this gets back to you for the second reading, you will again ignore the residents - as you did earlier tonight when you refused to read the several non-repetitious comments which your constituents spent their precious time writing to you - and you will place blame on the planning board's "recommendation" - which did not allow for consideration of the public's comment.

- BDE: petirah of Rav Eliezer Kugel zt”l, legendary mekarev and rosh yeshiva of Yeshiva Shvut Ami. He was 99. In his youth he learned in Lomza yeshiva with Rav Shmuel Rozovsky, and with Rav Chaim Kanievsky. He became close to the Chazon Ish and the Brisker Rov. In addition, he made it his life’s mission to establish a movement to spread Torah in settlements on the periphery that were not religious at the time. Rav Eliezer had a special relationship during all those years with Maran Rav Elazar Menachem Man Shach, who stood up for him out of respect for his work on behalf of Russian Jewry.(Matzav)

A Change in Political Paradigm
Recently group known as UENJ has submitted to various publications an article entitled, “Tuition Relief in NJ, Yes It’s Possible.” I do not know what the UENJ is thinking with their voter registration drive.
Our legislative district is heavily Republican already. Our legislators are only three of 120 in the legislature and the state is heavily Democratic. The solution to the tuition crisis is not vouchers, certainly not for all 45,000 of our children, but publicly paid English teachers. Vouchers will bring an end to the DOE's salutary neglect of the compulsory education laws. Mosdos will have to teach all subject in earnest and the children will have to take the state tests. The people of NJ, even Republicans, will not forgo hundreds of millions in tax revenue to pump more money into what is seen as the bottomless pit of Lakewood.
Consider 1) the allegations of educational failure in NY mosdos, 2) our elected BOE cannot get its financial house in order, 3) the state provided evidence at the school funding trial that the BOE wasted tens of millions of taxpayer dollars, and 4) we have accumulated almost $200 million in debt and growing.
