STONE HARBOR – In 2015, a group of Stone Harbor homeowners formed a limited liability company to fight the Atlantic City Electric project that called for the installation of 70-foot-high galvanized steel poles to carry transmission lines from the mainland to the new substation in Avalon.
The opposition to the poles played a role in the 2016 Republican primary that unseated longtime Mayor Suzanne Walters.
A May 13, 2019 letter from Richard Palko, a Property Owners Against Peermont (POAP) trustee, announced that the POAP would “wind down,” distributing its remaining assets to six borough non-profit organizations. They are the Stone Harbor Museum; Stone Harbor Garden Club; American Legion Post 331; Stone Harbor Volunteer Fire Company; Villa Maria by-the-Sea; and Stone Harbor Rescue Squad. The letter did not specify the nature or amount of the assets.
The letter states that the property owners involved remain “committed to remind this administration and all future administrations that removing these overhead monstrosities should remain a priority.”
Court House – Middle Township Rec has gone down hill. The fields are a mess. You have kids playing baseball in a soccer field.
