- Last night, the Township Committee held its final meeting of the year, during which the members congratulated one another on a successful year in running the Township. Mayor Coles thanked both the committee and the residents of Lakewood for their support throughout the year. He noted that he is unsure whether he will be reappointed as mayor but stated that he is willing to serve in any capacity.
During the public comment portion, one resident called on the committee to follow the example of Toms River and try to abolish the MUA, describing it as a source of “no-show officials” receiving large salaries and benefits, with insiders being appointed to these positions. The mayor declined to address the comment.
A resident urged Lakewood to change its form of government to a council with an elected mayor similar to Jackson and Toms River especially given that Lakewood is now the fourth-largest city in New Jersey. They argued that the current system was created for a small town, not a major municipality. The mayor defended the current system as working well for Lakewood, even though he had previously supported a change to a structure similar to that of neighboring towns.
