I am not a big political, anti big governement type person. But reasonable common sense should prevail. The rules and ordnance bucket just keeps growinng and growing it seems.

I guess your a little slow so even though its already been pointed out now the town has to pay someone to enforce this also when people who are issued a summons decide to challenge the summons now the town will have to pay attorney fees. So now all the Township Committee members are "idiots" (even though they didn't even all vote for this) and anyone who disagrees with calling them idiots is "slow." Usually name callers are saying a lot more about themselves than those they insult. I guess you're not too sure of your opinion to be wielding it only anonymously. Why not say these things to these people's faces if you have conviction in your opinions? There's an open public forum for this at the Monday Committee meetings. There was an election. Two of those idiots just got re-elected. So I guess most of the people in Town must be "slow." Doesn't sound like you kind of place unfortunately.

They will not do this for free so how much will the town pay them to do this???? The council can just raise taxes again for the staff time to enforce this and legal support for the potential lawsuits. Is this really what we need now?

Brush collection requirements: (1) Brush shall be chipped. Placement of brush shall be allowed no sooner than the weekend preceding the third Wednesday of each month, or as otherwise scheduled or announced. It is recommended residents notify the Public Works Department of requests for chipping services by the Monday before the third Wednesday of the month. (2) Materials should be tree branches and shrub branches preferably longer than three feet. All materials should be stacked at the curb or as near to the curb as possible, along the curb abutting the property owner's lot. Hedge clippings, twigs, small branches less than three feet (but not less than one foot) must be bundled with string only (no wire) and must be free of foreign debris, such as stones, dirt, metal, sweepings and rakings. No lumber, construction material, roots, stumps, mulch, sand, landscape construction material and debris, or soil left at the curb will be collected. All material to be chipped should be placed at the curb and no closer than ten feet to a storm drain inlet by 7:00 a.m. on the collection day. Any material placed at the curb that does not conform with these specifications will not be picked up by the Township. (3) Brush and limbs placed at the curb must be aligned parallel and facing with the flow of traffic. E. Leaf or brush collection may not occur in the event of Office of Emergency Management calls, natural disasters, vehicle blockages, acts of nature (such as snowfall) or other unforeseen occurrences.

Brush piles are taking up parking spots in the Business District and Main Street is much more heavily traveled then Shadow Oaks. Shadow Oaks is easier to handle because of much less passing traffic. Working on Main St. will likely require blocking traffic and police's presence to direct traffic.

As I see it, don't fine anyone, just don't pick up or chip the bad piles. They will need to pay a private contractor to clean up the mess they have made for public works. I hope the committee has the guts to help out public works and the rest of the citizens who are following the rules.
