To the Editor:
What about the average LBI taxpayer? Over the last eight years, I have noticed a sad trend in Long Beach Township, and that is if you’re just an average taxpaying homeowner in this community, your local government doesn’t always seem to have your interests in mind. Frankly, I’ve seen what looks like a double standard. Businesses get what they want right away, while homeowners don’t get much until they make noise. And then they get blamed for making noise.
Let me be clear: I have nothing against the businesses. They’re a very important part of this community.
