At their meeting on Dec. 19, the Swedesboro Council adopted an
ordinance making the intersections of Guest and Helms, Anderson and
Helms, and Guest and Leahy Roads three way stop sign intersections,
and turning the intersections of Weatherby and Helms, Vanneman and
Helms, Third and Railroad, Leahy and Vanneman, Leahy and Weatherby,
Leahy and Anderson, and Leahy and Fow into four way stop sign
intersections.
Numerous town complaints about speeding and concerns over children’s
safety led to residents petitioning Council to take action against
violators. A public hearing also took place at the meeting about the
matter. |

The East Greenwich Township Committee approved a mixed-use
redevelopment agreement with Berkley Square Redevelopers, LLC at their
meeting on Dec. 13, after debating the terms and conditions of the
contract for almost three hours.
The motion carried
by a three to two margin, with Committeeman William Bumbernick and
Jeff Craig casting the negative votes.
The Berkley Square
project would install 92 townhomes on the site along Berkley and
Cohawkin Roads in its first phase, along with commercial development,
but the Committee expressed concerns that the community needed
commercial revenue more. |

Our community is home
to one of the most advanced animal hospitals in North America,
according to the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA).
Swedesboro Animal Hospital/Tri-State Animal Emergency Center has been
selected as a Top 5 Finalist for the prestigious “Practice of the
Year” award, given each year to the top accredited hospital in the
United States and Canada. The award will be announced at the annual
AAHA Conference in Denver in March.
Only 15 percent of all animal hospitals in North America achieve
accreditation by AAHA, which is the only organization that accredits
small animal veterinary practices. To earn accreditation, a hospital
must be evaluated on more than 900 standards of medical proficiency
and practice, customer service, sanitation and cleanliness, and level
of overall care.
