Proposed solution will lead to problems
Iread with great interest and dismay a letter to the editor published in the Dec. 17, 2008, News Transcript written by Ray Kalainikas and concerning the home mortgage crisis ("A Workable Solution to the Current Foreclosure Crisis").

And as every letter written by this person, and published, it lacks any semblance of practical implementation. He never takes into account the impact his so-called solutions will have on the people who surround the communities he writes about.

After all, how many people could he fit into his two-room apartment, so why should he care that the schools, already overcrowded, will be bursting at the seams from the influx of renters. Remember, if they rent a room here, they can send their children to the local schools.

He wants people to be allowed to rent rooms in one-family communities, so, for example, instead of five people living in a home, we will have 100 people living in the home.

And will some of these renters include pedophiles and ex-convicts, to list a few? Never mind that maybe I don't want an extra 200 cars triple parking on the culde sac I live on.

To Mr. Kalainikas, why go to the Ocean County Board of Freeholders and not the Monmouth freeholders with your ridiculous ideas?

Finally, after reading your letter to the editor, I have had enough of this person, and his disdain for all that is right and good in our communities.

I moved to Manalapan for the reasons you so blatantly disdain, the quiet, safe village that others moved here for.
