It comes down to what is best for Asbury. Keady should view this from the resdients perspective. WE LIVE HERE. WE PAY TAXES HERE. Why support a mission that will be in OUR town to help others? I know this is needed however as we all know there are already plenty in Asbury.
If there were an increase of Asbury residents needing assistance, and the facilities / programs were not able to handle, then I could understand. While I do not know the numbers I would think the homeless has declined.
The councilman should put aside his selfish thoughts (while I understant are high) and represent the people of Asbury. That is why he was elected.

Paul, you know that I personally support Stand Up For Asbury and
disagree with my friend Jim Keady on this issue. I am glad that you
merely reported the facts of his disagreement in your post. That being
said, I think Jim's reluctance to oppose the shelter is based upon his
religious and moral principles and that he stands on higher moral
ground than I do in opposing it. While I commend both Messers. Loffredo
and Johnson for their stand, I still beleive that Jim Keady is one of
the best friends the citizens of Asbury Park have in city government.
We just must agree to disagree on certain issues. My check is in the
mail.
