- Category: News
ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS – Whether it will destroy the feeling and efficiency of a small town police department or improve services for borough residents will be the topic of a special meeting of the Mayor and Council Tuesday evening at 7 p.m. as the governing body hears residents on the question of moving the local emergency dispatch services to the Monmouth County Sheriff’s Office Center. Interested persons can visit the Atlantic Highlands site at ahnj.com for information on how to attend the meeting and be heard on ZOOM.
Discussion is strong on both sides of the issue, with Police Chief David Rossbach strongly in favor of handing dispatch services over to the County Sheriff’s department for the efficiency and security of borough residents, a move he readily admits will be expensive in the first year but will also result in huge financial savings in the future while providing a safer environment for residents.

Martin Biglin, assistant, Deputy Grand Knight Mike Napolitano, Event Chairman Kenneth Quinn, Treasurer David Legg, Financial Secretary Fred Hofmann and Convery, along with District Deputy John Flynn and Inner Sentinel Brian Anderson.

ATL. HIGHLANDS – In the wake of Richard Stryker from Bayshore and Middletown pharmacies citing inefficiency of the distribution of Covid vaccine, and his own frustration at being prepared but not being able to administer vaccine, Borough Administrator Adam Hubeny reiterated his own frustration at the system during last night’s meeting of the Mayor and Council.
In his report, the administrator said “I wish the County or State would give us vaccine doses because we would get it done. We have several doctors and nurses in town that have offered to help with inoculations.” Hubeny added that “the county is doing an awesome job and are ready willing and able to do the work but they need doses. We hope that the Bayshore Pharmacy and CVS will help our community and ease the pressure at other locations.”
A Devotional Life

Almost every religion has a prescriptive regiment for developing in your faith. Faithful Muslims have their requirements—pray five times each day, fast, and, if possible, take a trip to Mecca. Jews and Christians refer to the Old Testament to learn what they should do. In the Psalms, we read, “How can a man keep his ways pure?” The writer answers that he has “hidden your word in my heart so that I will not sin against thee.” In the New Testament, Paul gives instructions to young Timothy about ways to develop into a good Christian leader so that he can save himself and others.
