Arthritis, Clinic;—— (Fijtyn Page 1) I ficult to believe UAt allegations and state\ ment contained ffl Dr. Napolean’s letter' rehect the consensus of the highest \ respected profession in Cape May County. We would prefer to think not! Because to do so, is tantamount to maligning the reputations of dedicated professionals (medical and non-medical) who over the years have contributed their time andyeffgrt . to promote health education, preveh- / non and to insure thpt the medical needs of the county’s indigent are met." MR. LAMANNA BEGAN his memo by noting that tfce clinic’s closing "was necessary due to the lack of physician referrals of patients to the clinic...” despite estimates that as many as 97 per cent of county's residents over 60 are affected by some form of arthritis—a figure representing more than 24 per cent of the population. In a letter to Lamanna this week, Joe Solid Waste Plan —— (From Page 1) to George Marinakis, executive MUA director. “Elwood’Jartfcr, director of the County Planning Board mlvised us that the Board of Freeholders has authorized our two agencies to work together in the development of a model program. We agree that county government should set an example in this area and will be presenting a suggested program to the Freeholders at an early date,” Marinakis stated. IN ANOTHER MATTER involving the county planning board, an apparent difference in planning philosophy has arisen regarding the screening leriteria being used in the site selection prdbess for the location of a regional landfill in the coupty. "Pandullo Quirk Associates, our consultants, have ruled out all dedicated public lands as possible sites," Marinakis noted. "That includes the county park, Belleplain State Park, wildlife preserves

Ward of West Cape May, a private citizen long involved in attempts to improve health care service in the county, proposed a "cooperative county arthritis clinic for the detection and treatment of arthritis." . UNDER THIS PROPOSED "open clinic" concept, referral of patients by the individual’s doctor, "while desirable," would be optional. Under the old clinic concept, clinic services wei^ by referral only. “Your memo ...refuting Dr. Napolean's allegations of sub-standard services at the Cape May County Arthritis Clinic was complete and to the point," Ward wrote Lamanna. "However, the bottom line is still the same: The elderly population of Cape May County no longer have a muchneeded arthritis clinic..." In the past, Mr. Ward has criticized lack of publicity about the availability of the clinic.

and similar areas." Marinakis explained that vacant land under public ownership is in fact being subjected to further analysis during the screening process used to identify acceptable sites for a landfill. "THE COUNTY Planning Board has advised us that they feel all publicly owned lands,shou)d be considered in the screening process, including dedicated public lands," Marinakis sUrtid.'* He requested Authority members to consider the comments made by the county planning board and if they concur, Marinakis asked that they direct the Authority staff and consultants to modify the ongoing site selection procedure to include dedicated public lands for further analysis. The CMUA members unanimously indicated their support for the present practice of excluding such lands.
