Info Age has many friends and they have sprung into action.
Recently there was a meeting between  Monmouth BRAC, Washington BRAC, 
the National Historic Preservation Trust and Wall Township.  Also 
Congressman Smith has stepped in again.
BRAC Washington will send a team to inspect the decay of the properties 
and assess what the Army can do.
The Township was adamant that they will not take possession of the 
buildings until they are usable and will not permit the auctioning of 
the property.
The involvement of the National Preservation Trust lawyers, who are well 
versed in preservation issues, was a setback to BRAC intentions.
The Info Age board meets Tuesday evening where we will plan additional 
steps of how we can interface more smoothly with local media and support 
Congressman Smith's office.
We need to continue and intensify our restoration work at the cottages 
to show our dedication for the use of this site.
The situation is not as critical as it was a week ago but we need to 
maintain our vigilance.  Our participation at the next RAB meeting on 
the 27th may still be an issue so be prepared.  More info will be 
available at this Friday's meeting.
