The national Charrette institute sought by Lakewood neighbors released its report findings.
APP reports Back in February  professional mediators came to Lakewood and interviewed residents, community and political leaders to hear from them what is creating discord among township residents. Out of 160 people invited only 90 came to be interviewed (see list below).  The interviewee list was hand picked and most Lakewood residents were not given an opportunity to talk to the mediators.
The assessment was paid for by local orthodox Jewish businessman for $35,000.

The report highlights areas of strength in the Lakewood region such as quality of life,low crime rate, charity giving, strong economic profile with jobs available and  importunity for cross cultural diversity interactions.

Interviewees noted the  Challenges faced by them, such as  Misinformation, misunderstanding and misconceptions that create a lack of trust among residents. Bias attitudes antisemitism against the
orthodox,  media coverage of Lakewood as a whole and APP in particular pushing negative stories exacerbates community tensions. Cultural differences coexistence and impacts of change as Orthodox Jews move into new neighborhoods. Managing Land use response to growth: Traffic were mentioned by almost all interviewees some said Traffic is not unique to Lakewood

The report suggests the following recommendations moving forward
-Expanding a convening structure for collaborative Governance
-Expanding relationship and trust building
-developing a shared community coexisting plan
-conducting collaborative Visioning and growth management planning

Making a Chasuna During Sefira After Lag Baomer

$

0
Recently more and more weddings are taking place during the 2nd half of sefira it was not so long ago  ago that  weddings did not take place between Lag Baomer and Shavuos. It was always more common to make weddings from after Pesach up to Rosh Chodesh Iyar.  The trend has changed and currently wedding halls have been busy during the second half of sefira after lag Baomer. The main factor is the lack of  availability to book a hall and set a wedding date during the busy chasuna season after shavuos . A long engagement is standard by chasidim but not in the yeshiva circles. (Chasidim have an option to plan a wedding and book a hall a 9 months to (or a year) in advance).  A 4 months engagement is now common for a chosson kallah that get engaged in February/March (after The freezer opens) and are first getting married after shavuos.

 Years ago in Baltimore there was a lack of Chasuma halls and it was hard to find a wedding date.  Rav Moshe  Heineman shlita ruled that you can make weddings during sefira after Lag baomer, something that was not done prior to that. Some Roshei yeshiva will not be mesader kiddushin though, during sefira.

 Rav Moshe Feinstein (Igros 159) He explains that the prohibition of getting married during Sefira belongs only to the chosson and kallah and when they are permitted to marry, others are permitted to
attend. Harav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach zt”l  would go to weddings after Lag B’Omer, even though he was still keeping Sefira, yet he avoided from being mesader kiddushin. The Minchas Yitzchok held  one may not attend a wedding during their Sefira, even if the chosson and kallah are not keeping Sefira (OU)

Lakewood: Committeeman R' Isaac Akerman is running uncontested on the Republican Ticket. Last year the incumbent committeemen also ran  uncontested and the Vaad and Igud wrote strong letters of support as Hakoras Hatov to our elected officials asking everyone to go vote.
This year too let us show our Hakoras hatov to R' Isaac Akerman for all he's done for Lakewood  throughout the years as a public servant, with Mesiras Nefesh and distinction. Reb Isaac has served close to a decade on the township committee and  stands out for his accessibility, honesty and the sincere, humble manner in which he relates to each individual constituent. Guided by Daas Torah at every juncture with an achrayus for the klal, take a few minutes to vote for Reb Issac in appreciation and support to continue working on our behalf. R' Moshe Raitzik is running uncontested on the Democratic ticket. You can only vote for the affiliated party you are registered as, Independents can declare affiliation to either party at the polls.

Bill to Extend LSTA Consortium to Ocean County

Assemblyman David W. Wolfe, R-Ocean, introduced a bill that  "Establishes three-year nonpublic school pupil transportation pilot program in Ocean County to provide funding to county consortium of nonpublic schools that will assume responsibility for mandated nonpublic school busing".
The bill will renew the LSTA consortium for another 3 years but also extend it county wide to neighboring school districts in Ocean county such as Jackson and Toms River. It also calls for NJ Dept of Education to fund the consortium instead of  local , Wolf told the APP "I introduced the bill because I really want to get a discussion going about the whole concept of the consortium," .

Currently the LSTA secured funded for another year in the NJ Budget, this bill will extend it for 3 years, and if approved will take effect immediately. Its not clear if this will gain traction though.
