"Middletown" Mike Morris has stood as a stalwart advocate for the township's working-class taxpayers and families with special needs. A resident for 34 years, Mike has championed affordability and transparency in government, running an informative watchdog blog since 2008 to keep residents abreast of township policies and events. With a background spanning more than 30 years in the Chemical Industry and a proud alumnus of Brookdale Community College, Mike embodies the values of truth, justice, and the American way right here in Middletown.
Middletown faces a critical challenge: its population growth has remained stagnant for the past 15 years. The township grapples with an affordability crisis, squeezing out younger individuals, working-class families, and seniors. Starter homes and apartments for young professionals are scarce.
Middletown's governance lacks a coherent strategy for sustainable development. Instead of fostering organic growth, officials rely on outdated strip malls and sprawling developments. The town's infrastructure neglects crucial elements like walkability, bicycle lanes, and transit connectivity, exacerbating traffic congestion.
This status quo is unsustainable. Middletown needs a leader with a comprehensive vision for its future—one who prioritizes safety, sustainability, and the well-being of taxpayers.
