Is Lakewood township still trying to get rid of the rent control board? The township has yet to re appoint any members to the rent control board for 2017. Almost all other township boards were reappointed in the beginning of January.
In September 2016 an ordnance was quietly snuck in to abolish the Rent control board Here. It was up for a 2nd reading when the public got wind of it. An outrage ensued and the town backed off and pulled the ordnance. Not only that, but mayor Menashe Miller at the time quickly issued a rare public statement after it was exposed, that the board will remain.
It's March 1, 2017 and a town with over 35% rentals have no place for a fair hearing.
