Bergmann finds himself in the awkward position of opposing the construction of three orthodox Jewish in his hometown, actually pretty much in his own backyard, and he has taken to Facebook in multiple posts to discuss his opposition.

When he feels so inclined to attend, it becomes increasingly frustrating to watch Toms River Councilman Dan Rodrick's antics at Council meetings. The Councilman with the worst attendance record in the history of Toms River, who has been censured by his peers on three occasions for conduct unbecoming of a Councilman, either doesn't understand the job that he was elected to do or worse yet, doesn't care enough to do it.

Yesterday the pusillanimous weasels that ostensibly represent our opposition posted a somewhat disgusting and largely false commentary on Facebook regarding "Jewish Money". Disgusting because it calls into question "Jewish Money" when no one else is discussing the topic and largely false because it ignores the outrageously high reliance on social welfare programs. Although many in the orthodox Jewish community are quite successful in their own right, many more are not. Read more

The initial complaints were filed on August 24 and September 14 and in both cases Gluck's initial response was, well, not to respond at all. He failed to appear for the first scheduled hearings and has been playing a delay game ever since. Read more

Rodrick and Lamb Abstain From Crucial Votes Without Explanation
For a number of reasons, I took it as a personal affront that the attorneys representing Jackson Township in the litigation with Jackson Trails saw fit to blame "outrageous comments" made by members of the public during the public hearings, and elsewhere on found on websites and social media, for opening the door to a Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA) claim and for a $700,000 settlement agreement with the developer.

It almost seems as if this application was filed knowing that it was doomed to fail, if not for technical reasons then on the basis of violating fair housing law. It almost seems that someone wanted a test case in the courts. Maybe someone with REALLY deep pockets that wants to push the limits of RLUIPA and in so doing move the goal posts for future development plans. Read more

Jackson To Settle With Jackson Trails, OK 459 Homes & Synagogue

Rabbi injured in Poway attack sentenced to federal prison
The winds in Jackson have shifted and a lovefest of sorts is now unfolding between orthodox Jew and Gentile. Gone are the days when the "gloves came off", replaced with a kinder and gentler mood. Whether this change has come about as a result of an epiphany or at the tip of a steel blade will be for historians to decide, for now it's let's say that cautious optimism rules the land. Read more

For those of us who are fans of The Blacklist and, more specifically Raymond Reddington, we don't believe in coincidences.
Take for instance the arrival of yet another real estate solicitation letter yesterday in the mailboxes of Brick Township residents who live in the area of 200 Van Zile Rd., the site of Congregation Kehilos Yisroel (CKY), the orthodox Jewish boys school that was widely expected to conclude its application before the zoning board and to receive approval last evening. read more

With decision looming on yeshiva, realtors kick it up a notch
Many of these homes are rented to unsuspecting Hispanic families by "real estate investors" who refuse to invest in or make repairs to the property, most have an eye toward a tear down and new build of duplexes. These landlords don't bother getting a rental certificate of occupancy, fail to register as a landlord as is required by state law, offer no lease and demand cash payments to be made to a "property manager".
In fairness, when Lakewood's code enforcement is called they are VERY responsive but it's rare that such a report is made, members of the Hispanic community fear an unlawful eviction or worse, deportation, and those in the orthodox Jewish community abide by a prohibition against contacting secular authorities. read more

All the while, overzealous real estate agents continue their barrage of solicitations and unscrupulous individuals, real estate investors imitating regular folk, all but beg residents to sell their homes so that they and their family can "get out of a basement in Lakewood." read more

Consistent with the children's best interests, courts may properly direct noncustodial parents, during periods of parental access, to respect the children's religious beliefs and practices and make reasonable efforts to ensure the children's compliance with their religious requirements. However, … a court oversteps constitutional limitations when it purports to compel a parent to adopt a particular religious lifestyle. read more

You can put lipstick on a pig but it's still a pig. Similarly, change the name of Andover Sub-Acute and Rehabilitation Center to Woodland Behavioral Health and Nursing Center at Andover and it's still one of the worst nursing homes in all of New Jersey. That the facility is owned by the son of Joseph Schwartz, the posterchild for everything that is wrong with long term care facility management, and Lakewood's Chaim “Mutty” Scheinbaum, makes the death of one resident and the neglectful care of countless others all the more appalling. read more
