Toms River residents this evening launched a petition that would abolish an ordinance which is putting a hefty price tag on homeowners looking to sell their homes.

The petition reads:

There’s a famous saying repeated in Ronald Reagn’s name. When the Government says, “we are here to help you”- then you know you’re in trouble.

This proved itself in a colossal way when Toms River Code Enforcement Department has decided this past July, to police the homes sales and institute MCCUO, a CO inspection requirement for sellers to undertake before a property can transfer title to a buyer.
