Friends of Millville is a new group that seeks to involve citizens in a partnership with city government. Our purpose is to promote the revitalization of the city, especially through economic and residential development of the downtown and older neighborhoods.

We support programs and strategies that will renew inner city neighborhoods, especially programs addressing neighborhood security and home ownership/maintenance.

We want to help build a healthy city and to involve more people in positive citizen action. We oppose negative nitpicking that wears down our elected and appointed officials and does nothing to help build a better Millville.

Join us! We are meeting

Please feel free to bring suggestions and ideas for future projects for our group!

Unfortunately I will not be able to attend this meeting - it is one of the rare Thursday nites I work.

HOwever - please make sure everyone knows about the petition to stop Trenton from sending their sex offenders to Cumberland COUnty.

The only time Trenton acknowledges us is when they want to dump on us.

The recent Nor'easter wiped out dams, bridges and roads in Cumberland County. The governor applied for federal disaster relief and left us out! But when their facilities are overrun with sexual predators, who is the first area to come to their mind?

We already house 25% of the state's inmate population in our prisons. And with that come the families of the convicts, who then live here when their sentence is up.

Is it any wonder we are the most impoverished county as well as boasting the highest crime rate in the state?

It is time to tell Trenton a resounding NO! WE will NOT be the dumping grounds for the dregs of the state! We vote, too!
