[edit] SERA
Why is the Randy Corman SERA closed door meetings, legal litigation, missing deadlines, and factual negative information about him or SERA being erased? It is fact that the public has no direct power to stop this development, nor does it have any power to intervene. It is fact that SERA goes against all Sunshine Open Meeting laws. SERA is not well liked by the public. Take an opinion survey and you will see for yourself. Randy is a political payback appointment who is making a ton of cash for this project. His project has been ongoing since like 2000 and only recently in 2006 are vague plans being revealed to the public. And the public, including the borough council have no say in what Randy or SERA does.
- The problem is that there is not a single source provided, especially for such inflamatory charges, and the changes read as if they are blatantly POV original research. If this information "is fact", all you need to do is to point to a valid source (or opinion survey) that confirms it. Please identify reliable sources and I will be more than happy to put them into proper format. Alansohn 04:29, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Geography
Where are you getting your facts for the land area? Please post sources.
- The underlying data comes from the Census Bureau. All the original data was loaded way back when by a bot (check the page history for teh details). See pdf of census data for some of the numbers for Sayreville in a report format. Alansohn 04:29, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Amber Deposit
As a former resident of Sayreville, I am aware that one of the greatest archeological amber deposits in the world is in Sayreville. This site has yielded pieces of amber that held prehistoric insects including the oldest moth & wasp ever documented. The amber is actually prehistoric tree sap that dripped onto insects and hardened over time around the creatures preserving them intact. I believe there was also some ant species found. The deposit is just off Main Street accross from the Main Street Townhouses where the new housing development is planned. I have been told that you can still find amber there today.
Many of the amber pieces are on display I think at the Museum of Natural History in NYC. Maybe someone more familiar with it might add this interesting information with supporting links to the Sayreville section.

[edit] Starland Ballroom
This venue should probably be mentioned and linked to because it's one of the best-selling music venues in the entire world and is fairly significant in New Jersey.--Kickflipthecat 18:21, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
