Petition Launched To Stop The Lakewood DPW Solid Waste Transfer Station
Stop the Lakewood DPW Solid Waste Transfer Station
community is asked to help by signing petition
Petition - Lakewood township has proposed to build a Solid Waste Transfer Station with a 300 ton daily capacity. The proposed site is immediately adjacent to the current DPW complex located on America ave. The solid waste transfer station is designed to offload waste from the local township garbage haulers. The local haulers unload directly onto the facility floor. Earth movers are then used to move and transfer the waste into semi trailers (18 wheelers) for transport to the Ocean County landfill.
The proposed solid waste transfer station will directly impact the quality of life of the residents and business establishments in its immediate vicinity. Proposed hours of operation are 7 days a week from 6AM to 9PM. During the hours of operation residents will hear loud equipment and see many more waste management vehicles including semi trailers coming and going. These facilities are known to cause tremendously foul smelling odors that will be a constant presence for all of the immediate area surrounding the facility. They also inherently generate large quantities of waste liquid. This is particularly concerning as the proposed site is within a half mile of the Lakewood MUA water tower as well as other fresh water bodies.
Located within a half mile of the proposed facility are established residential neighborhoods, eating establishments with indoor and outdoor seating, health facilities, newly built office parks, urgent care facilities and many schools with elementary school age children. These will all be directly negatively affected if this solid waste management facility is built.

Chanukah Postscript – Iran
“There will be a point in time... when... Israel will have no choice, but to act!” –
That’s Greek to Me!
About two weeks ago, against the backdrop of kindling the Menorah at the Western Wall, Benny Gantz was מפרסם not exactly פרסומי ניסא, but, rather, his own agenda instead, should the Vienna talks about a nuclear Iran fail.
“There needs to be a military option on the table,” he said.
Chanukah’s timeless message puts the current crisis in context: Two millennia ago, the Supreme Entity let a single cruse of oil last for eight days; amidst a supernatural victory over many at the hands of a few, ensuring our continuity.

JHS: Railroads & Jews
Jsoundbites: Come on and Ride the Train: Railroads & Jews
The development of the railroad and the laying of rail track across the Russian Empire in the late 19th century, had a tremendous impact on traditional Jewish life in the Pale of Settlement. The railroad brought economic changes, implosion of communal structures and challenges to traditional norms. It enabled information to travel and for the spread of ideas, and for isolated shtetl’s to have access to wider society.
