We ain't seen nothin yet...

Well the Historic Preservation Commission finally presented it's cemetery report I helped work on in July of 2006. The Town Council requested it somewhere around 6 months to a year before hand and the Township Planning Board presented it just this week to the Council. Now I know things take time but this was almost two years down the road just to get to a point for them to discuss it. I was very disillusioned with the speed of that report mainly because I know the small plots need something anything to protect them. If a developer says OPPS and plows it over it's just too bad. My heart is so concerned with this small plots one of my goals was to protect them or at least get them in the public eye, with the Titus farm people are excited to see it spruced up and want to help keep it protected. There are other residents willing to do the same. I hope they can move on a decision fast to help save these tiny pieces of history through out South Brunswick.

It's like the flood report. It's taken over 3 years to get the problem recognized and now it's been a year and a half as we wait for the report's final incarnation.

And yet, a young student came before the Council to ask that smoking be banned in our parks and it took less than a month for an ordinace to be written. Or how about the zoning change on Friendship? Again, perhaps 2 months.

Frustrating when you have to fight for something......
