Council removes
township manager

Camp No Worries

No reason was given for removal of Maureen Mitchell

outside of resolution stating council believes retention
of a new township manager would be in best interest
By ZANE CLARK
The Sun

LINDSEY NOLEN/The Sun

Mt. Laurel resident, 12-year-old Alec Kazandjian, picks out the perfect colors to make a bracelet at
Camp No Worries. With more than 100 campers from New Jersey ages 6 through 16 in attendance,
Camp No Worries, a program of the YMCA of Burlington and Camden Counties, opened its doors to
children with cancer and their siblings from June 26 through July 1 in Tabernacle.

Maureen Mitchell will no

longer be serving as township
manager for Mt. Laurel.
That was the news out of Mt.
Laurel Councils June 27 meeting
when council passed a resolution
authorizing the removal of
Mitchell from her post.
Although the resolution outlines the separation as effective 30
days from adoption of the resolution, it also states that Mitchell is
immediately suspended from
the performance of any further
duties as township manager.
The only reason given during
the meeting for Mitchells removal, either from council or
from Mitchell herself, was also
outlined in the resolution: Council believes the retention of a new
township manager to carry out
the legislative and executive programs of the township is in the
best interest of the township.
Other than that, Mayor Linda
Bobo said the township would not
comment further.

Out of respect for Ms.

Mitchells privacy, we will not discuss the details of the separation, Bobo said.
According to state law, township managers, upon their removal, may request a public hearing that shall be held no earlier
than 20 days, nor later than 30
days, after the filing of such request. Mitchell did not give any
indication at the meeting if she
would request a public hearing.
In the event that Mitchell does
request a hearing, council passed
a second resolution outlining the
rules and procedures if such a
public hearing should it occur.
The resolution states that
Mitchells removal is not for
cause, which is described in
state law to mean the conviction
of a crime or offense involving
moral turpitude, and so, according to the resolution, any hearing
would be summary in nature.
The resolution further states
that should a public hearing
occur, council is not required and

Wedding reception brawl results

in injury to Mt. Laurel police officer
The following reports are on
file with the Mt. Laurel Police Department:
At 8:58 p.m. on June 26, Mt.
Laurel Police responded to the
Hilton Garden Inn,
4000 Atrium Way, for
the report of 20 to 30
people fighting. While
en route to the hotel, a
911 call was received
reporting that a female had
passed out at the hotel as well.
The first officer on scene encountered a crowd of people in front of
the hotel. As he began to question
some of the bystanders, another
group of people exited the hotel

actively fighting. The officer attempted to break up the fight as

other officers arrived. While trying to separate two subjects, an officer was punched several times.
The officer and a suspect fell to
the ground and were
kicked by some of the
bystanders. The crowd
quickly moved away
as other officers arrived. Officers from
Moorestown, Maple Shade and
Evesham assisted in dispersing
the crowd after arrests were
made. One Mt. Laurel police officer sustained several cuts to his
arms and a concussion. He was
treated at a nearby hospital and

police
report

released.
The investigation revealed that
the fight was a result of a family
argument that occurred at a wedding reception being held at the
hotel. A male, age 34, of Philadelphia, was arrested and charged
with aggravated assault on a police officer. Bail was set at $5,000
with 10 percent option.
He posted bail and was released.
A 17-year-old male from
Philadelphia was also charged
with aggravated assault on a police officer and released pending
a court hearing. An adult female

Second Brave Ben

blood drive July 10
Event set for 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Mt. Laurel,
honors 5-year-old Ben Hopkins
By LINDSEY NOLEN
The Sun
At age 5, Ben Hopkins, a resident of Tabernacle, has an entirely different perception of what it
means to be brave than most kids
his age. Although he looks like a
typical, happy boy who loves
sports and video games, he was
diagnosed with Severe Aplastic
Anemia, a rare bone marrow failure disorder, at age 3.
To replenish the blood that has
been donated to Ben over the
years, and to help other families
in need, an American Red Cross
blood drive is being held in his
honor on Sunday, July 10 at the
Aloft Hotel in Mt. Laurel from 9
a.m. until 2 p.m. Coordinated by
Bens mother, Toni, this is the second consecutive year the event
will be taking place.
Bens diagnosis has affected
our family in a big way. Before he
was diagnosed, we didnt even
know what aplastic anemia was,
but watching him go through it
all has made us a lot more active
in both the aplastic anemia community and in terms of giving
back to the community through
blood donation, Hopkins said.

We have a
whole
new
perspective
now.
Hopkins
and her husband,
Zach,
first
knew
something
was
wrong
when
they
BEN HOPKINS
began noticing petechiae, round spots that
appear on the skin as a result of
bleeding, on their sons skin. Immediately after, Zach took Ben to
a pediatrician who requested
blood work. The results showed
Bens platelets were extremely
low, as were a few of his other
counts.
The next step to diagnose the
toddler was to have him transferred to the Childrens Hospital
of Philadelphia where more
blood was drawn, additional tests
were run and a bone marrow
biopsy was performed.
While the incidence of aplastic
anemia is only about two cases
per a population of 1 million, its
consequences are known to be

THE MT. LAUREL SUN JULY 612, 2016

in our opinion

Social media more than just pics

Police departments using Facebook, Twitter to help reduce crime
he Internet is quite a powerful
tool, but, sometimes its power
can be used for bad instead of
good. Information as harmless as
facts, someones opinion or pictures of
people having fun can turn harmful in
a second.
Inappropriate comments on a photo;
attacking someones character, race,
religion or sexuality; cyber-bullying;
or straight mis-reporting facts all take
advantage of the Internets power to
do bad.
Social media sites such as Facebook,
Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat
make it easier to connect people all
over the world, and even easier to do
so in a negative fashion.
But, luckily, there is some good
going on in the digital world.

Your thoughts
Do you follow your local police
department on Twitter, Facebook or
other online sites? What is your police
department doing well? How can it
improve? Tell us your thoughts.

Local police departments have attributed significant drops in crime

over the last few years to the their utilization of social media.
More departments throughout the
state are utilizing Facebook and Twitter to their advantage to notify the
community of important announcements and ask for residents help in
catching a criminal, for example.
Those two social media sites, as well
as information sharing service Nixle,
not only notify residents of crimes,

alerts and issues, but also serve as

communication tools for residents to
submit their own issues and concerns
directly to the department.
Its much easier, and more efficient,
for residents to submit information on
the computer than it is to call in or
stop by the police departments offices.
Its great to see that police departments at a local level are utilizing the
latest technology to make their jobs
easier and more efficient, and providing more avenues for residents to feel
safe and communicate with their local
police force.
To those departments that are utilizing the power of the Internet to its
fullest potential, bravo; keep it up. To
those that arent, its time to step up
and go out on a limb. Its worth it.

does not intend to present any

statement or evidence in regard
to its decision.
According to the resolution,
during any such hearing, no
questioning or cross examination
of council members would be permitted, but Mitchell and her legal
representation would be given the
opportunity to explain her position in regard to the reason council stated for her removal.
Although several members of
the public attempted to use the
public comment portion of the
June 27 meeting to comment on
Mitchells removal, Bobo said
council would respect Mitchells

right to a hearing and would not

be taking any public comment regarding the township manager
position outside of such a hearing.
If she chooses to have a hearing, and you should know shortly,
well schedule it at that time and
the public will be allowed to
speak, Bobo said.
As Mitchells removal is not
listed as for cause, per state law,
Mitchell is to be paid any unpaid
balance of her salary, together
with her salary for the next three
calendar months.
Upon councils return from a
period of executive session at the
end of the meeting, it approved a
resolution appointing current
municipal clerk Meredith Tomczyk as interim acting township
manager until council appoints a
long-term successor for Mitchell.

year-old has functioned independently and without the required

transfusions since August 2014.
However, the only real cure for Severe Aplastic Anemia is a full
bone marrow transplant, for
which there is no match for Ben,
most likely due to his varied ethnicity.
Years later, Ben is doing much
better, has higher counts and
plans to wean off Cyclosporine by
September. However, the Hopkins
family still works to stress awareness and participation in blood
donation, platelet drives and in
bone marrow collection. Although Ben is off to start kindergarten at Sacred Heart School in
Mt. Holly in the fall, Toni admits
that as his mother, the potential
need for a future bone marrow
donor for Ben is constantly in the
back of her mind.
I was very sick when I was 3,
but I was able to get better be-

cause people donated blood. So,

donating blood is important to
other people so they can get better, Ben said.
