To the Editor:

I’ve lived on Shore Avenue and 10th Street in Ship Bottom for over 12 years. The recent hubbub raised by a 10th Street neighbor over traffic and the mayor’s response have left me scratching my head and asking whaaat?

The town rushed to spend taxpayer money to paint the street, which now resembles a county road, though the paint job is so amateurish that Ocean County would disavow it. Maybe they intended drivers to slow down to read the blurry white lines.
