  1. As of 11am today, the agenda of the zoning board was not posted on the township website. Is this a legal meeting under rules of OPMA?

    1. The ZB agenda is posted at the applications folder page for the ZB.

      Unlike the other township departments, for some reason the ZB secretary doesn't want to make it easy to find by having it displayed on the township's homepage.

  3. Re:- Lakewood police conducted yesterday a 'Cops in Crosswalks' operation

    Classic! The cops never enforced this dangerous law (short stops, cars going around you...) and one day they need some more money so they pick up 52 easy targets and fine them...

    1. They didn't fine them. Vast majority only got warnings.
      As to not enforcing...the police in this city don't enforce any driving/parking laws .

  4. Whenever Hunter Biden's deeds are mentioned, they magically transform into 'the Biden family'. Funny how the mainstream rightwing media spins things.

    1. The current white house resident needs to be evicted asap. He is a threat to national security.

    3. No, trump's children (who were actually part of the administration) didn't sell out America and Israel for 2 billion Saudi dollars! No way would they do that.

    4. Current White House occupant has protection.
      His VP is even worse.

  5. "It is unfortunate that the vote today took place with the slimmest possible majority"
    Here in America we would never do that. We just unilaterally make changes through (often unconstitutional) executive orders.

  6. “It is unfortunate that the vote today took place with the slimmest possible majority.”
    The slimmest majority??
    In the history of the medina they never had a majority like now. Even when the colition was a so called gov it wasn't with 64 mandates that ALL are on the same page (at least in this issue)
    The white house should keep their noses out of israel & fix their own trash

  8. There is a huge "Parental alienation" story which has been kept under the radar. Couple broke off ties with the parents and grandparents - a choshuve family - a "ish muram M'am". Seems that the Rosh Kollel pushed the couple to break off ties. Where is the outcry? How can a rosh kollel do this to the parents? No amount of abuse excuses such rishus to the parents and grandparents.
