Maybe I am dense but just why does the fire department need thier own lawyer, isn't the towns good enouph.
A good portion of last night's council meeting was devoted to a situation regarding the boro fire department. Apparently, two long time members of the fire department were fired after a dispute at a meeting that came to blows between several members. The two fired members plan to appeal and may or may not have legal representation at the appeal hearing. The Matawan boro attorney recommended that Matawan have a lawyer on hand in the event the two members show up with their own lawyers. The town's lawyer handles Matawan business and a seperate lawyer is required for lawsuits and such.
Another fine mess that will cost the taxpayers. When will somebody wake up and combine all these services.
Fired? It is a volunteer position. Oh well, don't have a fist fight at a meeting. There are plenty of fireman in the borough that two lost won't hurt. It has to be written somewhere that any physical altercations and your gone. Then again, the Matawan way its probably is not written anywhere. This town needs an enema.
