• Millstone mayor thanked for communication about COAH

    As a Millstone resident for four years, I remember when the township government did not communicate to the citizens. I received the township’s information packet last week and I am glad it included Mayor Nancy Grbelja’s message on the COAH problem that Millstone faces because of regulations mandated from Trenton.

  • Time for a change in Millstone Township

    I am tired of the current mayor raising my taxes in Millstone. In just two terms she has raised my taxes almost 300 percent. We have no services. We have no police force and we pay for our own garbage pickup. Why does she keep jacking up my taxes? It’s time for a change. The…

  • Tell Corzine to leave EMT Training Fund alone

    The volunteer Emergency Medical Services (EMS) community understands this difficult economy requires serious belt tightening. Gov. Jon Corzine’s plan to redirect $4 million from the Emergency Medical Technician Training Fund to the general fund, however, would only make things worse, especially on the local level. The New Jersey Legislature established the fund in 1995 to…
