It is obvious that Mrs. LaPelusa is using this issue as a pulpit for her husband’s political aspirations. Let us not forget Mr. LaPelusa was implicated in a case involving alleged kickbacks. I find it difficult to take …
To the Editor: It is so nice when you find trustworthy people and or companies who offer their services while providing great service. MIDAS is the place, folks. I had to bring my car in for repairs because my driver’s side window no longer opened. Not only was my car repaired in a timely fashion …

His veto supports the existing rules of the NJ Department of Environmental Protection which prohibit residential and discourage commercial development on …
