Fred Rast experienced an epiphany one restless night and "suggested" the town build a new parking garage with retail space and a new town library on Railroad Avenue. Mayor Donoghue responded by saying, "the devil is in the details, of course. However, On the face of it, it sounds like a very attractive idea." Translation: get some sleep Fred. He may be on to something though. I think Railroad Ave. has potential for some interesting things. At the next council meeting Rast will explain how the town can secure the parking garage and all the library books using state of the art lazor beams.
The Friends of the Atlantic Highlands Library invite you to learn more about their organization on Tuesday, February 8th at 7:00.
AH resident William Eaton bodyslams Jack Archibald in a letter to the AH Herald. I have to say Jack has been very quiet in his Body Politic column the past couple of weeks. How long can that last?

The county is close to raising the balance of the money needed to complete the 9/11 memorial at Mount Mitchell. I visited the memorial after it opened in September, 2004 and think whoever was in charge did a wonderful job. The landscaping is nice and the memorial, once the sculpted eagle is finished, I'm sure will be impressive. The new playground was also very well done. You can contribute to the memorial here.
