Hello Everyone,

I very much hope that you have had an enjoyable winter. The good news is that Spring and the vernal equinox is only 25 days away and then, before you know it, summer is here. I have just a few items to mention.

Starting this Wednesday, February 28, Earle Asphalt Company will be in town preparing for the hookup to the pump station at the end of Downer. We will be utilizing the pump station to help mitigate back bay flooding under certain circumstances. Downer will be closed from the corner of Downer and Bay to the west side of the post office which means you will need to access the post office from Rt. 35. The turn restrictions at Bay and Herbert will be temporarily discontinued. We are hopeful that this project will be finished by the end of the day next Friday. However, these dates could change so it’s best to say potential closures over the next two weeks.

We work very hard keeping our beaches clean and this has gone well until recently. Residents and non-residents have not, at times, been careful to clean up after their dogs and this has become a significant problem on the beaches and the ADA ramp at Downer. I would remind everyone that all dogs including those unleashed need to be “under the owner’s control”. Those not cleaning up their dog’s waste are demonstrating a lack of respect for the Borough of Mantoloking and their neighbors. To that end, we will see if this issue improves over the next month. Hopefully it will. If not we will no longer allow unleashed dogs and violators will receive a summons. It’s up to us to keep our town beautiful.

The speed humps that have been discussed will be installed before the summer. The number of humps will probably be 7- 1 north of Bergen, 2 between Bergen and Lyman and 4 between Lyman and Herbert. These are NOT the same as the temporary speed bumps we have had before. They are only 3 inches high and are far more gradual. They will also allow our DPW Department to plow when necessary. Residents immediately to the north and south of the humps will be contacted to allow discussion. However, the placement of the humps will not change once the locations are set.

Finally, if you see something which appears unusual or potentially dangerous in any way please call the Sheriff’s Dispatch at (732) 295-1465. They will alert our officers immediately and they will then respond. Waiting to call for whatever reason just is not helpful. We have officers on duty 24/7 for a reason.

That’s it for now. If you have any thoughts on these issues please don’t hesitate to contact me. I am happy to discuss.

Take care.

Best,

Lance White
