Spooner-It's actually vice versa, not "visa versa." Your welcome.

It should be noted that Corbally is not the first person to change his mind about running for re-election. In 1940 FDR originally indicated he would not seek a third term. The events of the time led him to change his mind. The events of our time have led Corbally to change his mind. If that makes Corbally a liar, he is in great company. Congrats and good luck to a dedicated public servant.

Hi O- Final thought on this school ranking issue. I was only aware of rankings back to 2006. Spooner has found rankings back to 1996. Seems PPBeach has been highly ranked for over a decade and a half. Sorry, but those are the facts and the end of this debate.

Reply"Data for the NJ Monthly ranking of the state's high schools were obtained from the state Department of Education." I don't see why some people seek to discredit our school system when factual data proves otherwise. The numbers prove it and the fact that people of means choose to pay (a lot) to send their kids here for the quality education PPBeach provides should silence the critics.

Hi O - NJ Monthly ranks high schools based on numerical data from the NJ Department of Education. PP Beach High School has been ranked #1 in Ocean County and highly in the state since 2006. Hope that answers your question.

ReplyHi Nick- good response, thanks. Bottom line as you say is " a resolution so that everyone can move forward." That's the best we can all hope for.
A note to those who have somehow morphed the parking plan debate into attacks on our school system: Keep in mind that PPB is a tuition school (people pay to send their kids here) and PPB is consistently ranked high in the state and always #1 in the county. You may want to voice your concerns at a BOE meeting. Thanks. -

ReplyHi Nick-As we await your take on the Chief of police endorsing the parking plan, also include your thoughts on the attorney for Jenks agreeing the plan was a success. They are right there in the minutes from the December council meeting. I'm sure Spooner McMurphy can access them for all to see. Thanks!

ReplyThe change to 1230 was a request by Jenks to accommodate families staying a bit longer. Part of the compromise and it does not affect the residents. Today's Ocean Star reports the Chief of Police stating the parking plan "was successful" with a reduction in quality of life issues. OK, spin that one Nick.

ReplyThe genie is out of the bottle Nick... "it's all about options for the visitor." Can't put that one back in the bottle.

Hi Maggie HZ- It's nice to see an intelligent response to an issue here. The council tabled the debate until more information could be gathered for an informed decision.
Your post has many valid points to consider. It's too bad people like Randle (Spooner) continue to use this forum to post illiterate comments - "Yea let spend the a $1.2" ...and then has the audacity to make personal attacks on a high ranking naval officer who spent his adult life protecting people like this. Sad.
