Letter to the Editor: Oceanport Councilman Irace Thanks Voters

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for reelecting me to serve as your Councilman. I consider it to be a great honor, and I promise to continue to work hard to do what is best for Oceanport and all our residents.

I would also like to welcome Burt Lynch to Council. Burt has been an important member of our Monmouth Park Task Force in the past, so he will be able to hit the ground running on this important Oceanport issue.

I know we all hope retiring Councilman Ted Ibex will remain part of our team. He has been very active on the Fort Monmouth issues and it's important to maintain continuity.  It has been great working with you Ted!

There are no Republicans and Democrats on our local governing body, only O’s for Oceanport!  In my time on council, I have lived by this motto and will continue to do so regardless of political expediency.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your Council President in Oceanport. I remain honored and humbled to serve our town. It is a responsibility that I take very seriously because there is nowhere else I’d rather live!
