Mt. Laurel Council passes
ordinance. PAGE 3
Longtime resident reflects on his past
By KRISTINA SCALA
The Mt. Laurel Sun
Jarry Jones, an 81-year-old Mt. Laurel resident,
has spent his entire life in Mt. Laurel. Jones keeps
township history in both his mind and in his home.
I was born in a farm house in Mt. Laurel. There
are probably no more than a dozen of us left that
were born in Mt. Laurel, Jones said.
Jones grew up as a dairy farmer, until his family
had to sell the farm in 1959.
He said the farms surrounding his were all sold,
leaving his family no choice but to follow along.
So my life changed at that point, he said.
Jones farm was turned into a section of the Ram-
blewood Country Club, and has been that way for ap-
proximately 50 years. When his family sold the prop-
erty, Jones and his older brother Harvey, who was
known as Pete, went to work for the man who
bought it.
We sold the farm and went to go work for the guy
that bought the farm. He started to build a golf
course and my brother and I negotiated and told him
look, we have been raised in grass all of our life. We
just have to learn what it takes to run a golf
course, Jones said.
The brothers were hired from the beginning days
and were involved in the construction, he said.
Jones said his brother became superintendent and
he became the assistant.
Thats the way it was for 10 years, and I was in-
volved in the greens themselves, he said.
Jones said he ordered materials and worked with
a guy maintaining the greens. He said half way
through the project, his boss fired the guy he was
working under and put Jones in charge. Jones said
he continued to order materials and deliver them,
until his boss called him into his office one day.
The boss called me into his office. He said to me
next week, you are going to be able to fire a gun

The Mt. Laurel Sun
Mt. Laurel council passed an
ordinance limiting vehicles more
than four tons from parking on
residential streets overnight.
According to solicitor Duncan
Prime, any vehicle more than
four tons will be prohibited from
parking in residential areas from
10 p.m. to 6 a.m. Residents are al-
lowed to have one commercial ve-
hicle per household if it is under
four tons, he said.
Residents who violate the ordi-
nance will be fined.
According to the ordinance, a
$50 fine will be given for the first
offense. The second offense is a
$150 fine, the third offense is a
$250 fine and the fourth violation
will result in a fine up to $1,000
per violation and a mandatory ap-
pearance in municipal court.
But for Andrea Fuss and her
family, the ordinance would pose
a problem when it comes to their
recreational activities.
Fuss said her family enjoys
camping. She appeared at the
meeting on behalf of her in-laws,
who are currently in Florida with
their camper, sharing her con-
cerns that the ordinance is not
giving them enough time to load
and unload the camper.
They have requested, and I am
also requesting on their behalf,
that if you choose to move for-
ward with the provision of this
ordinance, you provide a three-
day window for people like us
that are campers, she said,
adding sometimes it is difficult to
unload the camper and transport
it to the location where it is
stored.
She said her in-laws camper is
more than four tons and will not
fit in the driveway.
Sometimes the family does not
get home until 4 or 5 p.m. By that
time, the storing location is
closed, she said.
We want a three-day window
so they can unload the vehicle
and move it in a timely manner,
she said.
We are going to do what the
law says. We are just asking for
three days. Our concern is that
once it is in black and white we
are going to be held to whats in
black and white.
Councilman Jim Keenan said
he presented Fuss concerns to
police Chief Dennis Cribben. He
assured Fuss the ordinances in-
tent is not for the law to go out
and search for parking violators.
The intent of this ordinance
is not to go out and look for the
Ordinance will restrict overnight

S
chool administrators through-
out the state were holding their
collective breath leading up to
Gov. Christies 2013 budget address last
week.
Where would state aid stand? was
the question on everyones mind. If
state aid went down considerably, how
hard would it hit the school districts
bottom line?
Come last week, though, these same
administrators were able to breathe a
sigh of relief when Christie an-
nounced that his budget proposal
would actually increase state aid
schools and, more importantly, would-
nt reduce aid to any school district.
Overall, Christies budget provides
for an $87 million bump in state aid to
public schools, up to almost $9 billion
total, which is a record high for the sec-
ond straight year.
But those numbers often are not im-
portant to school districts like ours,
which doesnt receive the bulk of state
aid to public schools anyway. What is
important to our district is that we
wont be seeing a decrease in aid from
last year.
The exact amount of state aid that
will be given to each district hasnt
been released yet, but once it is, its
likely to show that our districts aid
will be flat, year over year. While we
certainly could have used more help
from the Garden State, its comforting
to know we wont have to kick in more
money out of our already thin pockets.
So two thumbs up to Christie for
paying attention to one of the most im-
portant aspects of life here in New Jer-
sey our public schools.
in our opinion
Phew!
No school district will see a decrease in state aid
Its budget time
The school district will be releasing its
2013-2014 budget numbers, and the
impact on your tax bills, shortly. The Sun
will have all the details on the budget
when they are released. If you want to
share your thoughts on the topic, send
us a letter to the editor. Wed love to
hear from you.

The Mt. Laurel Sun
Nearly four months after the Sandy
Hook shooting in Newtown, Conn., many
schools districts are figuring out ways to
improve school security. One Mt. Laurel
parent still has concerns with the school
building being open to the public.
Diana Geracis daughter attends Hill-
side Elementary School. She brought her
concern to the board of education regard-
ing building safety on Tuesday, Feb. 26.
In light of what happened in Connecti-
cut in December, I am a little confused as
far as when we are locking doors, when we
are not, and what is the deciding factor on
when we unlock those doors, she said.
Geracis daughter use to attend the Ex-
tended Day Care program, but after Geraci
discovered the school doors are unlocked
after school hours, she decided not to send
her daughter to the program.
Im hearing the buildings are consid-
ered public, and we have to leave the doors
open. My concern is with aftercare. We
have students and staff in those buildings
after 3:30 p.m. They are there Monday
through Friday past 6 p.m., she said.
Superintendent Antoinette Rath said the
schools are open to the public, hosting
events such as PTO programs, afterschool
programs, public recreational programs
and more.
To lock the doors down is almost pro-
hibitive from allowing access because we
dont have anyone to constantly let people
in, she said.
Rath reassured Geraci the school dis-
trict is currently in the process of updat-
ing security. She said the school district is
beginning to phase in security cameras
and increase the size of video monitors.
Door lock replacements are also a part of
the budget, she said.
Its all in the process, Rath said.
The board of education and the supervi-
sor of EDC are also discussing how indi-
viduals associated with the EDC could ac-
cess the building via a swiping system.
Considering the horrific event in Con-
necticut, Rath said the staff members in
the school district are always looking out
for the students best interest, but its diffi-
cult to have 100 percent security, she said.
You can build the biggest walls. You can
have the deepest fences. When someone
has a mission to do something that horrif-
ic, nothing is going to keep them out.
Thats a reality that is very difficult to em-
brace.
We do our best, and we have everything
in place, Rath said.
Geraci said she is thankful for all the
staff members in the district making the
childrens safety a priority, but the devas-
tating incident in Connecticut still has her
concerned about building safety.
Until we have something firm in place,
are we required to leave the doors un-
locked? Geraci asked.
According to Rath, part of the assess-
ment is looking into which doors can be
locked and which should remain open.
Some of our buildings are very large
and they have sports teams use them. We

Other meeting news
The board of education unani-
mously approved the refunding
and sale of a bond, saving the
school district approximately $1
million.
According to business adminis-
trator Robert Wachter, the school
district is refunding its 2003 se-
ries bonds, which were refunded
from bonds in 1999.
The 1999 bonds where used for
the construction of the Springhill
School, as well as renovations and
additions to the Hartford and
Harrington Schools.
Total savings are projected to
be just over $1 million, Wachter
said.
The board also approved three
new elective courses at Harring-
ton Middle School.
iPublish will teach students
how to be a published writer. The
goal of the course is to show chil-
dren how to write novels and chil-
drens books.
The second course allows the
children to be crime scene inves-
tigators and the third program
will prepare eighth-grade stu-
dents in the world of finance,
teaching them how to manage
their money using math applica-
tions, budgeting, investing and
entrepreneurship.
According to the overview sub-
mitted by Harringtons principal,
Kathleen Haines, the courses will
supplement other electives such
as band, orchestra and more.
The students will have the op-
tion to select one of the new elec-
tives as well as the electives al-
ready offered at Harrington,
Haines report says.
The number of full-time em-
ployees does not impact the new
elective courses, Haines report
says.

Editors note: Knowledge Bowl
Advisor Mary Ann Stecher gave
the following report.
This is the third year in a row
that Lenape High School's Knowl-
edge Bowl teams have brought
home the first- and second-place
trophies from the Burlington
County Academic Tournament
held at Lenape High School. Ironi-
cally, the tourney was held on Sat-
urday, Feb. 2 Groundhog Day!
The final televised match was
super-exciting. The game came
down to the last two questions,
when Lenape's Al team pulled out
in front in the final seconds to
win the match.
Both teams are very close and
there was hugging and congratu-
lations all around.
It's the natural order of things
that the seniors (A1 team) won,
Adriiana Santomero, a member
of the A2 team, said. Next year is
our turn!
Special to The Sun
Pictured are participants in the Knowledge Bowl: Hassan Haider, Pranjal Gupta, Anna Wechsler (captain
of the A2 team), Mac Tan (captain of the A1 team), Maddie Gilfert, advisor Mary Ann Stecher, Vince Liu,
Peter Konchak, Ben Chelemer, Antonio Gray, Kitijh Meelu, Olivia Liu and Mike Scheip.
