To the Editor:
It’s a shame that long ago, LBI wasn’t established as one community, with one set of governing bodies (education, police, fire, government, zoning, etc). It’s a shame that the Island doesn’t have more uniform zoning.
LBI is such a beautiful island that is rapidly losing its charm. The result of Superstorm Sandy is larger, boxy homes with no trees and very little shrubbery. The one area of LBI that has the largest sections of charm is Beach Haven, with its many natural cedar shake homes and trees.
