I believe his name is Al Burdge.
Can’t wait to see the colors this guy comes up with ! Maybe we will have an orange garbage trucks
To # 1. Thank you.
Why dont we get to vote for the new head? In light of everything we know i’m calling on the committee to pass a law that either allows us to vote for the new head of DPW or makes a 4 year limit on the amount of time anyone can hold that position.
Whos gonna give out the uniforms and gloves now?
John, Thank you for your years of service to Lakewood. Best wishes for a long and healthy retirement

Crazy, no? Next thing you know they’re gonna have yellow school buses.
Why are you not posting my comments?
to John ,may you have many more healthy years of Retirement to come. Thank you for a great Service
WE need elections or term kimits for the heads of the departments,
the township commitee will never replace any dept head ,and that is where all the waste and corruption goes on I call on bob singer to keep his promises of reevaluating the DPW. enough with the insiders taking over we need a vote.
Take a moment to find out what qualifications are needed to be the director of DPW and then you may think differently.
Thanks to John, the DPW has a good honest work force. Lakewood DPW has set a high standard that other towns in New Jersey,now are seeking to duplicate!
John good luck with retirement. Al congrats you are going to do a great job. Best of luck to both.
Thanks John for a job well done. Wishing you a nice retirement with good health. Good luck to Al.
Happy Retirement!
Good luck John, and thanks for all the years of service
what we need is term limits for all committees… starting with bob singer
THANKS JOHN—JOB WELL DONE–AL GOOD LUCK
it bothers me for a very long time in such a heimishe town why no yidden running public works ,tax or inspection departments
No term limits, if we have term limits it will cost you much more to train in new people every 4 years in how to pick up garbage and trim the trees… Imagine if you had to get voted in to do your silly sales job every four years…. You would have go on HUD and foodstamps
So long John. You did a great job cleaning up.
why did you erease my post?
