Mayor Blaise Scibetta opened the Little Egg Harbor Township Committee meeting, following the flag salute, with a moment of silence in memory of Central Regional High School student Adriana Kuch, 14, who tragically took her life on Feb. 3 following a violent attack by school bullies. It was a sobering moment that will hopefully raise awareness to prevent future tragedy.

While the committee was glad to give update on ongoing projects in town, the majority of the public comment portion was dominated by talk of dredging.
