I personally am glad Mayor Sobel's request was denied by the county. Don't know if it's true but I heard the result of the re-evaluation was 50% affected upward and 50% affected downward. Much different from the 33%/33%/33% originally predicted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-56695885788930599192009-01-06T17:20:00.000-05:002009-01-06T17:20:00.000-05:00It is Slob-el as previously posted.

What people need to do is to ask an awful lot of pointed questions when our local elected officials start walking door to door seeking our votes. <BR/><BR/>I will start my questioning off with why Aberdeen did not buy the pool club for our residents? Other towns have made such purchases and it has benefited the community greatly. Maybe there was no fee or engineering study to be done for the connected professionals to gouge the taxpayers on with such a thing. As has been mentioned by the woman from the beach area yesterday our streets being paved have been our local dems claim to fame. All that does is make bigger payoffs to the connected. What has been passing for leadership in our area of the county is a joke and I am not laughing. I will be laughing loudly when these same elected officials cannot answer my questions at my front door or when I question them at the 2009 Aberdeen Day. I will say the 2008 event was well attended and Jim Collabelli did a great job. Thank you Jim.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-61075095503426739732009-01-05T19:51:00.000-05:002009-01-05T19:51:00.000-05:00To add fuel to the fire of justsotrd the two signs...To add fuel to the fire of justsotrd the two signs that warn people to not block Vinny Vincis intersection are the only two signs like that in all of Aberdeen. One would think that with all the school crosswalks and other far more dangerous walkways or intersection in our town that signs like that could be used in many more locations in town.<BR/><BR/>But our own selfless??? Councilman Vinci needs not just one sign, our Councilman Vinci needs two signs, the only two signs to warn people to not block his intersection. The only two signs in the entire town placed at any location as though he is some superhero that needs to get somewhere in a hurry to save a damsel in distress. <BR/><BR/>Talk about selfish. Vinci takes the cake and from the looks of things on this website he also takes everything else that is not nailed down and also gets paid to run for council by the democratic party. If I run how much do I get?<BR/><BR/>I can't wait until election season.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-51215753809168608922009-01-05T18:50:00.000-05:002009-01-05T18:50:00.000-05:00Just take a moment and look around Cliffwood Beach...Just take a moment and look around Cliffwood Beach and you will see what Councilman Raymond has done. <BR/><BR/>NOTHING is the view from the cheap seats. Don't get me wrong but as a Cliffwood Beach resident for over twenty seven years I cannot point to one real accomplishment that Councilman Raymond or our other former representative did to benefit our area of Aberdeen they were supposed to fight for. arly did nothing really as well. <BR/><BR/>The one improvement was the parks and that was done because all the parks were done. Did councilman Raymond do anything to improve our beachfront. Just look at Old Bridge only one small bridge away if you want to see what political action, drive and determination can do for a community. In Old Bridge there is a magnificent beachfront, walkways, and many activity areas for the citizens. <BR/>A skating rink that gets spray painted with graffiti and can be unsafe at times due to its lack of security during the day and at night is not a positive for Aberdeen. I am sure all of us can remember the political literature over the years put out by both parties wherein the Jewel of Aberdeen is shown. This supposed jewel is our beachfront. That would be the same rock and stone beach that gets ignored unless it is election time and some political party wants our vote. <BR/>Sometime back Sen. Kyrillos was down there and there was some to do about improving the waterfront and since then NOTHING. So Councilman Raymond I ask you to list ten things you have done better yet make it five things that you can point to that you made happen for your Cliffwood Beach. You like the others have been sitting on your asses and other than your fellow councilman Vinny Vinci getting his own intersection, free land and two street signs to make sure no one dares to block KING VINCI'S intersection the rest of you have done NOTHING. I give you one word of advise spending money on roads is not what will win this election for you. The people of New Jersey and Aberdeen are tired of politicians who do nothing or like Councilman Vinci who only do for themselves. So Councilman Raymond take your time and list just five things you have really done for the area you are supposed to represent. And do not count the Fire Department as my husband served with you and that did not garner political involvement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-44963964596170858282009-01-05T13:48:00.000-05:002009-01-05T13:48:00.000-05:00Thank youThank youAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-23346134490851374102009-01-05T13:19:00.000-05:002009-01-05T13:19:00.000-05:00No sarcasm intended.
