rundown
Tuesday will be the day a
new mayor is elected by the
voters of Washington Twp.
By KATRINA GRANT
The Washington Twp. Sun
A request for public involve-
ment in the search for a new engi-
neer in Washington Township
turned into a question of trans-
parency at last weeks board of
education meeting.
Board president Stephen Alta-
muro made a suggestion that the
public be involved in the search
for an engineer because there are
many projects that are or will be
going on that some members of
the public may have knowledge or
suggestions about.
Board member Josh
Aronovitch said he was glad that
Altamuro wanted to be more
transparent and wanted more
public involvement.
Im always trying to be trans-
parent, Altamuro said. Im not
saying to set up a committee. Im
just saying come to both meetings
next month and put in input. We
are going to RFP, have the meet-
ings with the public next month
and start the process clean.
At the meeting, the board an-
nounced that it would be having a
negotiation session Nov. 2 with
the teachers about the contract.
We are going to have a steel
cage match and get something ac-
complished, Altamuro said. We
are going to have smaller groups
first with larger groups waiting,
in case you guys get tired.
The board is also continuing to
look into ways to cut costs in the
school district. The district has
been having nonviolent offenders
perform community service at
the schools. So far, the program
has been going well. The district
has had no complaints, and the
people serving community serv-
ice are performing tasks that are
needed in the district.
Alternative energy is another
avenue the board is looking into
to lower costs. The district is
waiting on an energy-efficiency

the Washington Township Board
of Education, four years as presi-
dent, and has served 18 years on
the Gloucester County College
Board of Trustees.
She is a lifetime member of the
Association of Community Col-
lege Trustees. She was a charter
member of the Child Placement
Review Board and the state Child
Placement Advisory Council and
also served as chair of the

ment Review Board

with the Special Olympics for
more than 30 years, serving as

The Washington Twp. Sun
An Oct. 28 fire in a long-aban-
doned building on Berlin Cross
Keys Road claimed the life of an
as-yet unidentified man, the
Gloucester County Prosecutors
Office announced.
According to reports, fire offi-
cials at the scene said the body of
the man was badly burned.
Reports say the building has
been vacant for around 10 years,
and is often occupied by squat-
ters.
Additionally, reports say, the
interior of the building was a
mess, and was loaded with trash.
The fire was believed to have
started sometime before 9:30 p.m.
Oct. 28, as a local resident report-
ed the blaze to police at around
that time. An autopsy on the vic-
tim was performed Oct. 29 by the
Gloucester County Medical Ex-
aminers Office, and results re-
vealed the victim died from
smoke inhalation.
Check back on our website,
www.washingtontwpsun.com for
additional details on the fire.

come available.

With National Animal Shelter
Appreciation Week at hand, Bar-
bara Woodward of Dogs Gone
Walking is joining forces with the
National Association of Profes-
sional Pet Sitters (NAPPS) for the
Presents 4 Pets campaign, a col-
lection drive to benefit pets in
shelters and provide items des-
perately needed to help keep shel-
ters operational, and animals
comfortable and safe.
This national program, already
underway, will run until the first
week of November, coinciding
with the Humane Society of the
United States (HSUS) National
Animal Shelter Appreciation
Week observed Nov. 6 to 12.
As part of this annual pro-
gram, Dogs Gone Walking and
other NAPPS members across the
country are reaching out to their
community and encouraging
them to collect and donate prod-
ucts for this worthy cause. Items
such as toys, treats, blankets, tow-
els, rugs, beds, bleach, leashes,
collars, coupons and newspapers
are all being solicited.
This is a great opportunity for
all animal lovers, pet owner or
not, to help provide for those ani-
mals often forgotten, Barbara
Woodward, Owner of Dogs Gone
Walking LLC said. In addition to
offering support to our local shel-
ters and shelter animals, we hope
to generate awareness of commu-
nity shelters and the important
role they serve.
An event will be held on Satur-
day, Nov. 5, at Acme on Egg Har-
bor Road in Sewell and hopes to

in our opinion
6 THE WASHINGTON TWP. SUN NOVEMBER 2-8, 2011
I
t seems as though weve been
stuck in campaign mode for
months. Local and state races get
decided next week. Presidential pri-
maries are only a couple of months
away.
Its time for a break. Time to talk
about something that everyone should
be thrilled about.
Racing is coming to the state in 2013
with the annual Formula 1 Grand Prix
of America at Port Imperial in Wee-
hawken and West New York. Accord-
ing to the governors office, the race
will be a 3.2-mile road race, run on ex-
isting roads through Port Imperial
and at the top of the Palisades.
So why is this such great news?
First, the world now will get a view
of New Jersey that doesnt include
Snookie. (Or, at least, we dont think
she will be driving one of the cars).
Second, there will be a huge eco-
nomic impact. Organizers anticipate
100,000 people to attend each race of
the three-day event. And while a for-
mal study is still being put together,
the state anticipates hundreds of mil-
lions of dollars in economic develop-
ment during the 10 years of the agree-
ment.
Third, its just going to be cool to
have a big-time race in the home state.
These types of events (the Super
Bowl is coming to the state, too) are
great for everyone in a state that has
been hit hard by tough economic
times. Local municipalities and school
districts have been cutting corners.
Taxes already are high enough. Bal-
ancing government services with rev-
enues has been an enormous chal-
lenge. Grabbing as many tourism dol-
lars as possible simply makes sense.
So, as one political season winds
down and another gets ready to
launch, lets take a minute to recog-
nize a positive development.
Start your engines
Formula 1 agreement great news for New Jersey
Rev it up
Racing is coming to New Jersey. Its a
winner for taxpayers, as the econom-
ic boost should be huge.
Galloway, casinos and 9-1-1
Woman calls 9-1-1 to draw her
cop away from her traffic stop
A Camden woman involved in a traffic
stop allegedly made a fake report to 9-1-1,
hoping her police officer would be called
away to the more serious but fake crime
shed phoned in, according to the Glouces-
ter County Times.
Janora Carter, 25, was a passenger in a
car that got pulled over Monday night on
Blackwood-Clementon Road in Gloucester
Township. She had several active warrants
pending against her, at the time.
Police said that, as the car was being
pulled over, Carter apparently tried to
avoid arrest by phoning in a report of an
armed robbery nearby. At 11:35. p.m., po-
lice received the report of a man wielding
a shotgun at the nearby Wawa Food Market
on Little Gloucester Road.
Despite this call, the officer whod
stopped them discovered outstanding war-
rants for Carter as well as the driver,
Robert Webb, 28, also of Camden. Both
were arrested.
Police said they later determined that
Carter had made the armed robbery re-
port.
Along with the counts from the old war-
rants, Carter was charged with placing a
false 9-1-1 call and reporting a fictitious in-
cident to a law enforcement officer. Bail
was set at $1,695.
The continuing saga
of Galloway Township
The mayor of Galloway Township and
township officials are fighting in court
over whether the mayor keeps his job after
dodging meetings for two months, accord-
ing to Galloway Patch.
Oh. And a council member said Mayor
Keith Hartman had an affair with former
township clerk Lisa Tilton.
A little background first. When we
checked in last September, Hartman had
suspended his reelection race because, he
said, he and his family had received
threats including, he now tells Patch, to
expose extramarital affairs he had within
the community.
Though he says the threats came from
unknown parties, the Atlantic County
Prosecutors Office apparently investigat-
ed whether they may have came from fel-
low Republican Councilman Dennis Klein-
er and local union official Roy Foster. Hart-
man and Kleiner had been butting heads
for months.
Anyway, Hartman began skipping coun-
cil meetings in August.
Meanwhile, Tilton was suing the town.
The township had suspended her from the
clerkship in June, citing various discipli-
nary reasons that dont seem to have been
made public. First she resigned, in a sepa-
ration agreement with the council then
she withdrew that resignation, and she
sued the township for violating that sepa-
ration agreement, as well as for invasion of
privacy, slander and libel.
Its a $3 million lawsuit against 10 Gal-
loway officials, including every member of
the council except Hartman.
All caught up? Good.
Because since then, Hartman has said
hes running for reelection after all but
continued avoiding council meetings from
Aug. 23 until last Tuesday. Eight weeks had
passed, which legally meant that his seat is
vacant.
If the mayor or any member of the gov-
erning body doesnt show up for eight
weeks, state and township law say theyre
not in office anymore. Technically, the
37,350 people in this 114.8 square-mile town
havent had a mayor since 11:59 p.m. on
Oct. 18.
Thats why Hartman showed up to the
council recently to ask his buddy Kleiner
and the rest of them to excuse those ab-
sences retroactively.
The meeting well, it didnt go well.

A 3-year-old horse from
Gloucester County was eutha-
nized on Oct. 20 after contracting
Eastern Equine Encephalitis
(EEE), a serious, mosquito-borne
illness in horses.
With an increase in the states
mosquito population due to rain
storms in the last couple of
months, horse owners must be
vigilant in protecting their ani-
mals from diseases spread by
mosquitoes, New Jersey Secre-
tary of Agriculture Douglas H.
Fisher said. Horse owners
should contact their veterinari-
ans to have their animals vacci-
nated against these illnesses.
This deadly disease is easily
prevented by vaccination. Effec-
tive equine vaccines for EEE and
another mosquito-borne disease,
West Nile Virus (WNV) are avail-
able commercially. Horse owners
should contact their veterinari-
ans if their horses are not already
up-to-date on their vaccinations
against both EEE and West Nile
Virus. The Gloucester County
stallions vaccination status
against EEE is unknown with no
report of vaccination in 2011.
EEE causes inflammation of
the brain tissue and has a signifi-
cantly higher risk of death in
horses than West Nile Virus infec-
tion. West Nile virus is a viral dis-
ease that affects horses neurolog-
ical systems. The disease is trans-
mitted by mosquito bite. The
virus cycles between birds and
mosquitoes with horses and hu-
mans being incidental hosts. EEE
infections in horses are not a sig-
nificant risk factor for human in-
fection because horses (like hu-
mans) are considered to be dead-
end hosts for the virus.
Earlier this month, the first
case of West Nile Virus in a horse
was reported in Monmouth Coun-
ty. The 11-year-old mare was
treated for the disease.
The New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection re-
ports that the exceedingly high
levels of precipitation experi-
enced statewide due to Hurricane
Irene and subsequent rainstorms
resulted in much higher than nor-
mal mosquito populations. They
said the immense amount of
floodwater throughout the state
created habitat for those species
of mosquitoes which utilize semi-
permanent, standing water for
larval development.
In 2010, New Jersey had one
case of EEE and two cases of
equine WNV. All three animals
were euthanized.
For more information about
EEE and West Nile Virus in hors-
es, visit the New Jersey Depart-
ment of Agriculture web site at
www.nj.gov/agriculture/divisions/a
h/diseases/diseaseworksheets.htm
l#4.
EEE and West Nile virus, like
other viral diseases affecting
horses neurological systems,
must be reported to the state vet-
erinarian at 609-292-3965 within 48
hours of diagnosis.
