NJ News -Stronger Than The Greed?
When the NJ Supreme Court overturned a lower court’s ruling upholding the award of $375,000 to a Harvey Cedars couple for the loss of their view to a beach replenishment project, homeowner Phyllis Karan was captured on video by NJ.com likening the taking of her land to “Nazi Germany.”
Meanwhile, Lauren Wanko of NJTV has video capturing the happy reactions of Harvey Cedar’s mayor and Karan’s neighbors who credit the dunes, built in 2010, with saving the town from damage by Superstorm Sandy. Tony Auth pokes fun at the Karans with a cartoon showing cash raining down on a beachfront house and copy reading, “Had the court sided with the couple, the entire project to protect the Jersey Shore would have been in jeopardy.” Auth’s headline: “Harvey Cedars decision shows Jersey Shore is stronger than greed.”
