 A proper time & place...

"In 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation which designated May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date falls as Police Week. Currently, tens of thousands of law enforcement officers from around the world converge on Washington, DC to participate in a number of planned events which honor those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice."

WE KNOW THERE IS ONE, BUT, THE PUBLIC KNOWS LITTLE ABOUT THE LODI DRUG ALLIANCE, UNTIL 2016.

LodiBorough.org

AND WHERE IS THIS FOR 2017 ????????

OTHER TOWNS IN THIS AREA DO HAVE A MUNICIPAL DRUG ALLIANCE, AND THEY INFORM THE PUBLIC ABOUT IT.

THIS IS A WONDERFUL THING, AND THE RIGHT THING TO TEACH OUR YOUNGSTERS ABOUT DRUGS & ADDICTION, BUT……

DOES LODI HAVE A DRUG PROBLEM…YES WE DO, AND IT IS POINTED OUT IN RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

ACCORDING TO THE ABOVE REPORTS & PUBLICATIONS, LODI HAD THE HIGHEST OVERDOSE RELATED DEATHS IN BERGEN COUNTY.

Shared Services....?

Yes, we are all aware that "Shared Services", you know,  the Luna quote "Everything under one roof",

saves money. But this is funny.

Lodi Bills

So is Lodi DPW now cleaning the Garden State Parkway or the NJ Turnpike ????? Or did the Borough of Lodi forget to pay the EZ pass bill ???

I know there is a Bergen Toll Plaza and a Essex Toll Plaza, but never heard of a "Sweeper Toll Plaza"?

If a Borough of Lodi employee commits a "traffic violation" or a "Toll Plaza Violation", in a Lodi Borough owned vehicle, why should the taxpayers of Lodi be held responsible?  Then you have to ask, why is a Lodi DPW vehicle on the NJ Turnpike, or the NJ GS Parkway in the first place?

Why would a Lodi DPW  "sweeper" vehicle have EZ-Pass?

One has to really question Lodi's bookkeeping methods? (Would that be a Cuccia or Luna-Biondi thing?)

Next thing you know the taxpayers will be paying for pizza out of the Lodi 911 account, right Vin?

Wait, did Lodi have an 911 Account? Did Lodi ever have 911-Public Safety Telecommunicators? Some want to erase that fact also.
