Let the House Burn: The Wrong Strategy for NJ Marine Fisheries

It’s been nearly a year since I last wrote about the precipitous decline in New Jersey’s fisheries management capabilities, and the trend continues unabated.

Last year it was a free registry that prompted many people to examine the ruinous underfunding of the Bureau of Marine Fisheries (BMF) and this year it is the closure of the river herring fishery.

LETTERS: TIME TO CREATE BIKE LANES IN GLOUCESTER CITY

Image via Wikipedia

  It’s time for Gloucester City to become Green! There are many things that we can do to get started. A good inexpensive start would be the creation of bike lanes. 

  Many towns in New Jersey have them and by the way, the communities that I’ve been in that have bike lanes were beautiful, clean and safe.

  The presence of bike lanes creates in a community a genial atmosphere not to mention a reduction of automobiles on the road. Wouldn’t it be nice to go to CVS or other business in town on a bicycle instead of getting in your car to go maybe a quarter mile or so without parking issues? It’s great!

  After we get the bike lanes we can then take the next step and have bicycle racks installed at these businesses.

  And let’s get the police personnel back on bikes. The bike lane could encompass the perimeter of the city: Jersey Ave to King St. to Essex St. to Johnson Blvd. to Market St. Past Cold Springs School to Broadway to Jersey Ave. That would just be a start. But let’s get started.

 

Respectfully, Bill Gugel, Gloucester City

In 2003, eminent domain forced the exodus of my lifelong neighborhood for a proposed middle school. I grew up directly across the street from the planned site and when I married, I moved a stair step block away. Two of my mother's brothers lived across the street from my childhood home and both homes were directly affected from the State's buy-out of the properties.
