To the Editor:

The upcoming referendum vote on Dec. 10 for $7.6 million to rehab and update the LBI Grade School building should not be put to rest, as suggested by the new incoming board of education member fromLong BeachTownship, Brielle Hoffacker.

In 2002 (17 years ago) structural repairs were done to the floor beams in the easterley wing of the school along 20th Street. Those repairs in recent inspections were intact with no required further work to be done to them.
