Last night the council passed the Fair School Funding resolution by unanimous consent. I’d like to thank Mayor Doherty and every member of the council, especially Claire Deicke, who was instrumental in getting it passed.
Of course if the plan becomes law, there will be a lot to discuss about how the $3 million should be used, but I think all of us will be happy to be in the position of needing to have that discussion.
Next step: Tonight I will be discussing the plan and the resolution at a meeting of the Jersey Shore Tea Party Patriots.
And starting next week I plan to visit the council meetings of some neighboring towns, many of which are suffering even worse treatment from Trenton than we are, and encourage them to follow in Belmar’s footsteps and demand a change in school funding policy.
