Update on Family in Accident

The Van 
 An update on condition of the Lakewood family of seven that were struck by an 18-wheeler truck at 70 mph earlier this week.
The father Allon &  son Shlomo have both been released from the hospital.
Yosef Chaim had a true miracle happen.... he was supposed to have surgery on his broken hip and leg.   After much talk, the doctors decided to do it by hand.   They rescanned him after and said that it looked like he had never even been injured!
Yehuda, is conscious and breathing on his own.  Tests are still being done, and we should hopefully know more about how he’s doing later today.

To all that prayed,  thank you so much!!!   Hashem really listened!  The fact that anyone came out alive from that car is a miracle.  But all 7 family members??  That’s a true blessing from Hashem.

Lakewood Fires Busing Chief after draft report alleges mismanagement

 The district spent Millions on purchasing its own fleet of school buses. Now a report  questions why the district still hired 3rd party companies if they can do their own busing. Th same buses that the BOE wants to lease to the township for Route 9 Shuttle buses

Lakewood owned enough school buses to cover its routes and questioned why the district still hired third-party companies to bus children on 67 routes.

APP  reports The Lakewood school board voted to fire its student transportation chief Wednesday just a week after receiving an unfinished report that said the schools may be overpaying for public school busing. The Board of Education hired Ross Haber Associate..to study the district’s transportation operations. The review focuses on how about 5,500 public school children get to school, and whether it’s cheaper to do that with district-owned buses or use contractors.

Plastic Bags May Cost 5 Cents Tax in NJ

Soon, you might have to shell out 5 cents per plastic (or paper) bag on New Jersey shopping trips.

Last week, state lawmakers passed a measure requiring a 5 cents-per-single-use-bag fee for shoppers. The bill, which legislators hope will bring the state as much as $23 million, is poised to pass — pending Gov. Phil Murphy’s signature. If Murphy does sign the measure, it would go into effect on October 1st. Lawmakers say it will cut down on waste and provide funding for environmental cleanups. Per the bill’s language, stores would get 1 cent of the bag fee, while the other 4 cents would go toward a fund for lead abatement in schools and communities, as well as an environmental public-information program, per the Inquirer. People enrolled in food-assistance programs and those 65 and older would be exempt from paying the tax.

WSJ: The Jersey Tax Spiral Continues

From the Wall Street Journal Editorial board
New Jersey’s Democrats are in a budget standoff between worse and worser, though it’s difficult to tell which proposal is which.

Governor Phil Murphy, who defeated the ghost of Chris Christie in last November’s election, is pushing for a new “millionaires tax,” which would bump the top rate on personal income to 10.75% from 8.97%. He also wants to add nearly half a percentage point to the sales tax, raising it to 7%. New Jersey already has the country’s highest property taxes.

Senate President Stephen Sweeney voted for a “millionaires tax” several times when he knew Mr. Christie would veto it. But now that state and local taxes can no longer be deducted on a federal return, Mr. Sweeney worries Mr. Murphy’s plan would send even more high-earning residents packing for Florida.

Many are traveling long road trips to or from the Midwest or other places out of town to attend a family simcha.
