To the Editor:

Beach Haven has a competent police chief in James Markoski. All summer we met with him to discuss issues regarding “Neighborhood Watch,” which is of great interest to taxpayers, businesses, residents and visitors. Every year, the chief provides a budget to the borough administrator/manager with a number of police personnel he feels are needed to accomplish the job.

Last year and this year, Beach Haven was unable to secure the number of officers Chief Markoski needed for his local police force.
