To the Editor:
This is a response to two letters published in last week’s edition, one from Long Beach Township Commissioner Joseph Lattanzi, the second written by Richard M. Bradshaw, attorney for the Ship Bottom Volunteer Fire Co.
We were expecting the township’s letter as they had mentioned one was coming if we did not accept their proposal; however, we were surprised by Mr. Bradshaw’s. We hope it was a work of “pro bono” on his part, considering the financial position of the company.
