Calling it “short-sighted” Highlands Mayor Carolyn Broullon had an immediate response to the reports  the Henry Hudson Regional boards of education is holding yet another meeting January 31 before taking any action on proposed regionalization with Sea Bright.

The Mayor also expressed shock that neither the Board Chair nor any board member remained silent when questioned by the audience members.

In a written statement, Mayor Broullon said

“In my opinion, it is short-sighted to leave Sea Bright out of the Regionalization plan. Including them brings cost savings to the taxpayers of Highlands and Atlantic Highlands by reducing the amount raised in taxes for the schools.  I am shocked the elected Board Members were, for the most part, silent. They have a duty to answer to the taxpayers that elected them to represent the community.”
