  1. It seems that township committee is keeping meetings online because Delia is not well. If that is the case they must either have him vacate the seat or video him on meetings. They are making a mockery out of Lakewood taxpayers..

    1. Why can’t Mike D’Elia get video-conferenced into the meetings?? Why should the entire public of Lakewood get dissed because of this one problem, which can be easily fixed?

      There’s no legitimate reason that he shouldn't be able to join his cohorts in the meeting via video conference. The people of Lakewood deserve better! Stop with the excuses already.

    2. He's been on video link for most of 2021 township meetings. Anyone watching the videos will realize a rapid deterioration. Watching the videos makes it clear the short 25 minutes meetings are too long for him. That was in 2021. In 2022, he only appears by audio link, and has been generally silent. I would think the hatzalah member on the committee would clearly notice there a severe health issue. Unless he too, is too distracted to watch the screen.

    3. It's hard to be active at every accident scene in Lakewood and watch the screen at the same time. C'mon, man!

    4. If the reason is because Delia isn't well, why can't they say so? Why do they continue on their own merry way without informing the public about what is going on? Is it because they know that Delia being unwell is not a good excuse for this nonsense? What would they have done with an unwell member before COVID forced them to have virtual meetings? Puhleez!

    5. D'Elia gets paid somewhere between $50,000 to $65,000, plus health insurance and other benefits, for calling in to 25 minute meetings, once a month, that's he's been sleeping through.

  2. Agudah attacked Trump who is a friend of the Jews they were quiet when the left Muslims have been attacking frum jews and chasiddim in Brooklyn.
    These stupid statements are self pontificating
    If they cared they would never have attacked Trump and turn the Maga crowd against yidden because we are perceived as kefuyei Tova

  6. The township committee can easily pass an ordinance at the first meeting to remove delia, but they won't. they don't care that there effectively an empty seat on the committee collecting a salary. they don't care at all about tax payer money, or if the taxpayer is getting the representation they are entitled to.
