On Asbury Radio's concerns of the past year and longer about the lack of an emergency response plan for Asbury Park, may we call your attention to the realities discussed in today's editorial in the APP. Whether you agree with the proposed fund or not, you may want to ask Asbury's leaders to show a little more initiative in getting the plan finished. "Hurricane modelers predict that a Category 3 hurricane that makes landfall in Asbury Park would put Newark Liberty International Airport under water. The devastation caused by such a storm would not only wipe vacation homes off the shoreline, but destroy block after block of the homes of low- and moderate-income families who happen to live long distances from our coastline. The destruction of Tropical Storm Floyd, which affected towns throughout the state, would pale by comparison." From today's commentary in the Asbury Park Press by James Lee Witt, former director of Federal Emergency Management Agency under Pres. Clinton, and James M. Loy, reatired Coast Guard admiral and former deputy secretary of the U.S. Dept of Homeland Security.
