Last night, November 13, 2024, Toms River Residents pleaded to the Toms River Council to respond to Code Enforcement violations and issues and stop the boarding houses in our neighborhoods and lack of property upkeep. Toms River Township Attorney Peter Pascarella said “if you report it, they will enforce it. With no CO requirement on resale of homes, they have the time.” Councilman Justin Lamb of Ward 2 had his usual answer, “come see me, I will help you, let’s discuss after the meeting.” NOTHING GETS DONE, SO WE WILL HELP!
Two quick reminders: Code Enforcement is now heavily guarded by Mayor Rodrick’s new watchdog and new infiltration onto the Toms River Board of Education Maria “Marisa” Matarazzo (real estate agent, no conflict…right?) and second, in March, Mayor Rodrick and Business Administrator Jonathan Salonis secretly changed the CO requirements on rentals to match standards of the slums of inner cities – no requirement on lawn mowing, no requirement on window screens, no limits on beds…WRONG FOR TOMS RIVER!
If you need help from Toms River Code Enforcement, we will file the complaint on your behalf…don’t ignore Mr. Lamb, call him, visit him, just stay clear of the stairs and let’s see who gets action first! Don’t want to share you name, no problem! Multiple ways to get us…post on Facebook on Toms River Residents Uniting Everyone – TRRUE or Toms River Residents for Transparency; email or messenger us via one of the two Facebook pages. We will file the complaint and follow up on your behalf. We want to preserve Toms River and protect our neighborhoods.
