FREEHOLD, NJ – To commemorate National County Government Month in April, Monmouth County Constitutional Officers, County Clerk Christine Giordano Hanlon, Surrogate Rosemarie D. Peters, and Sheriff Shaun Golden are inviting the County’s fourth graders to showcase what they like best about Monmouth County by having students create posters that fit the theme, “My County.”
“Spring is when New Jersey’s fourth graders study the State of New Jersey as part of their social studies curriculum,” said County Clerk Christine Giordano Hanlon. “My favorite aspect of this poster contest is that local fourth grade students can gain an understanding of what County Government does each day.”

I rarely comment publicly on Facebook, but this morning I made an exception when someone posted an aerial view of The Heritage at Middletown, the townhomes currently under construction on Route 35 South, across from Target. The photo clearly showed the extent of this ongoing project. My impulsive response, “I don’t see progress when I look at this, and it angers me,” triggered a flurry of reactive comments. Apparently, the general consensus in Middletown is that The Heritage is “disgusting,” an “eyesore,” a “monstrosity” resembling “army barracks.” There were, however, a few opposing opinions, one of which gave me pause.
