Tommy with all due respect, I think you are tainted and should not be attempting to act as a nuetral journalistic observer in these matters.
I base this on your compensation recieved from the 4 council members anti Keady - to whom you owe allegiance too. Also, the facts associated with your post, are apparently the thoughts of a mind that has not focused fairly on the question you post. You say; you are going to "refrain" from making a decision until you hear from others, yet in your post you make your concrete opinion well known. Giving the community on the west side $100,000.00 is a token amount. The West Side has needed proper funding for many years. Turn your own tables over for a minute. Having Keady chair, should make the transaction more palatable, unless you do not trust keady? I say this to Giordano in Long Branch all the time; "You have to decide whether you want to be a councilman or a banker, whenever his bank and his role as a councilman/development agent conflict. He has yet to get the message, and remains in questionable status between his Bank and His elected office. You on the other hand - can not dare represent a nuetral tone between the 4 councilman in with the MOB and the one outside (Keady) when you are being paid by the inside MOB! (My MOB reference is likened to a madding crowd and not the sicilian black hand of corruption in local towns and governments.) These are just my thoughts, and you should take them beyond a grain of salt and a dash of tobasco! The best way for harmony to come to the asbury park council is to recall one of the 4 and add another member like Keady. That will give you some protection from the status quo of the last decade.
