Shmuli's Grill & Smokehouse closes
A sign on the door of Shmuli's Grill & Smokehouse says, the store is closed, perhaps only temporary or closed for good. first it was Yiddie's that closed and now Shmulis. A reflection of the tough restaurant and fast food business in Lakewood. Perhaps the proximity to Aisle 9 or other reasons it was good while it lasted, wishing Hatzlocha to the owners moving on.

Township promises openness and transparency going forward at Master plan commitee meetings
The newly formed master plan committee, going forward, will be open to the public, that is what committeeman Lichtenstein liaison to the committee said at last nights township meeting. A local resident complained about the fact that the public is not being informed about the new master plan. Why is the public not invited to these advisory committee meetings? this master plan is important to everyone in this town she said not just to the advisory committee. The resident also called the DCA the govt agency in charge of committees and boards and they said the state does not require records but the state requires minutes and someone should be required to take minutes.
Meir Lichtenstein responded the last 2 meetings were only of educational and technical nature and no zone changes or any discussions took place.
The meetings were about educating the members what their obligations of the master plan committee is. The second meeting was about how to get members of the public on the subcommittee and how many members should be on the committee.

Agudah joins Lakewood yeshiva in suit against Ocean Township zoning board
Agudath Israel to NJ Federal Court: Ocean Township Zoning Board Violates Yeshiva’s Rights: In a federal lawsuit pitting a major yeshiva against a local zoning board, Agudath Israel of America is contending that the board’s refusal to grant the yeshiva certain zoning variances necessary for the yeshiva to operate is motivated by a political cave-in to anti-charedi bias.
Yeshiva Gedola Na’os Yaakov of Lakewood, New Jersey, under the leadership of the Rosh Hayeshiva Rabbi Shloime Feivel Schustal, has grown rapidly since its inception several years ago, and has far outgrown its current quarters in Lakewood.
To meet its need for a larger space with full dormitory facilities, the yeshiva acquired spacious property in Ocean Township, and applied to the Township’s Zoning Board for the necessary zoning variances.
The yeshiva subsequently filed a lawsuit against the Township in federal district court, and has asked the court to issue a preliminary injunction requiring the Zoning Board to allow the yeshiva to move forward. It is in support of such injunction that Agudath Israel has now requested an opportunity to make its views known as an “amicus curiae” (friend of the court).
The proposed Agudath Israel brief, written by attorney Ronald D. Coleman, a partner in the firm Archer & Greiner, P.C., argues that the Township’s denial of a variance constitutes a violation of the First Amendment and RLUIPA (the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act); that the yeshiva’s application to establish a dormitory-based facility is fundamental to its religious mission and is based on an esteemed and widely accepted tradition in Judaism; and that the “noise” and “safety” pretexts relied on by the Zoning Board in denying the yeshiva’s application have no basis in the record and are plainly discriminatory.
Said Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zwiebel, the organization’s executive vice president: “This case is just the latest example of the type of challenge our community faces as it grows and is forced to contend with hostile neighbors who are determined to keep Orthodox Jews out of their neighborhoods. Of course, it is incumbent upon us to do everything we can to co-exist respectfully and peacefully with our neighbors, to be sensitive to whatever legitimate concerns they may have, and to conduct ourselves in a way that will lead to harmonious relations with entrenched communities. At the same time, however, we have rights as do all other American citizens, and we must stand guard against efforts to inhibit our community’s growth

LPD: wanted person
On July 7th at approximately 11:15 pm. Officer Kevin Seunath encountered a group of men walking along Country Club Drive after receiving a complaint of suspicious activity from a concerned citizen. Upon exiting his patrol car he made contact with the men and began collecting preliminary information.
An off duty police Officer from a neighboring town saw that Officer Seunath was by himself and stood by until the arrival of additional Lakewood Officers.
During the encounter it was learned that one of the men, identified as 26 year old Justin Schneider of Brick NJ, had an outstanding traffic warrant for his arrest out of East Orange.
Mr. Schneider immediately stood up and fled on foot across four lanes of traffic on County Line Road. Officer Seunath as well as Officer Kevin Bell who was now on scene, gave chase but lost sight of him in a residential backyard.
Officer Seunath received a laceration to his arm while jumping over a 6 ft chainlink fence which required medical attention.
At this time additional charges have been filed against Schneider for Resisting Arrest By Flight, Aggravated Assault on a Police Officer and Obstruction. Bail was set in the amount of $15,000 by Municipal Court Judge Scott Basen.
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Justin Schneider is urged to contact Dsgt. Staffordsmith at 732-363-0200 ext 5318.
