No Opposition Means 'I've Done My Job'—

(From Page 1) options of "maintaining the status quo, or moving toward our own community college." He said he doesn't feel there is pressure for a community college, but that there is a need for one. Students enrollment from the county has grown at both the main campus of Atlantic Community College and at its extension in Rio Grande. Kilpatrick said. "So the students are there. " In addition, the county is spending more than Sl-million annually in "chargebacks," Kilpatrick said. They are funds the county pays to defray tuitions of students who attend out-of-county community colleges. Kilpatrick declined to be specific about nj what the county is willing to commit to \ either establishing a branch community k college, or creating its own school. H "Depending on what recommendation 8 we accept, we would determine what the I financial commitment would be," he said. J Kilpatrick insisted that the vo-tech i school "is not dying. The enrollment has f not reached expectations above what we had in the 1984-85 school year, but there are a number of reasons for that. The chief reason, he said "is a reluctance on the part of the sending schools to lose students for even a half-day because it affects their funding." THE VO-TECH SCHOOL. Kilpatrick said, should not be blamed for a shortage in certain trades such as plumbers. "It may be the lack of interest on the part of students to go into certain trades. " ' he said. "It could be with the tourist orien- ! tation of the county that there are more attractive positions in the tourist industry " On the question of too many secret meetings, Kilpatrick said the freeholders try to comply with the state Sunshine taw "I'm not saying there haven't been technical violations of the law." he said. "But there are certain things that we're not trying to hide, but that are of such nature that disclosure could harm the public interest." \ He cited as examples personnel deci1 sions and land acquisition where, if \ negotiations were made public, the cost to the county could be higher Minutes of closed meetings. Kilpatrick said, are released according to established policy, "and after the board has reviewed them and no longer deem it in our interest to hold them " Kilpatrick was questioned about an incident when he said that the county could not have the sheriff's department provide patrols of areas like Ocean View and Dennisville "There is no question that as a board of freeholders we could authorize such action But as a matter of policy and approach. the sheriff should not be involved." Kilpatrick said Should there be reason to use the sheriff, he said, the county would then have to decide how much additional money would have to be spent for men and equipment Relief from what some citizens view as inadequate traffic control and law enforcement is in sight. Kilpatrick said "The state police are expanding, and Cape May County will get additional patrolmen " State police who patrol the areas. Kilpatrick said, "do have a lot of area to cover." KILPATRICK. 50. AND a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, got his start in politics when attending law school at Penn. He was appointed judge of elections in

Upper Darby, Pa., and went on to be . elected to the Methacton School Board when he was living in Trooper, a Lower Providence Township community in Montgomery County. , Kilpatrick and his wife, Lois, bought a house in Ocean City in 1971 and moved ; here in 1977. They have two daughters. Jodi, 19. and Staci, 12. , Jodie, a junior at the University of . Delaware, is spending this year at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. She aspires to a career in meri chandising or as a buyer for a large department store. As a lawyer, Kilpatrick specializes in representing design professional, such as architects and engineers, in malpractice suits. , Last Friday morning, he was in court for a case involving a condominium in Delaware County, Pa. In the afternoon he had a case that involved an improvement problem with a casino hotel. Kilpatrick estimates that he spends 50 percent of his time as a freeholder, a parttime position that pays $15,750. When he has the time to relax, it is usually a book, or video taping the performances of his daughter, Staci. who is active in cheerleading and gymnastics. Kilpatrick is a fan of horror novelist Stephen King and books about military history. "By virtue of my hectic schedule, my recreation is on the passive side," he said. "I'm not a golfer, and I don't play tennis or jog." ADVANCEMENT TO A HIGHER elective office like the State Legislature is not one of Kiipa trick's goals. But he does not rule out a judgeship. "Most lawyers consider that the zenith." he said. Kilpatrick rates his relationship with the press as "good, generally " But he admits to having problems with reporters "who tend to foster controversy, and stir up problems where no problems exist." Kilpatrick said he would never take the view "that I can't do anything wrong, and neither can Cape May County." But some reporters "never say anything good It's always the bad." he said Kilpatrick serves as vice chairman of the freeholders even though he has less seniority than three other members, a fact that some people have questioned. "I asked that question, too." he said "But 1 am pleased that my colleagues saw fit to give me a position of leadership." Kilpatrick confesses to enjoying community leadership, and sees a connection between it and his days when he was interested in dramatics at Penn "Like everybody else. I like to have a say when decisions are made," he said. "It's the same reason I become an Army officer I wouldn't have enjoyed being a private " -Trying to balance a career and public service can be a strain, Kilpatrick said "But if you have the ability and the time, you owe it to the community to provide that leadership and service " ty
