EAST BRUNSWICK–With the year 2020 in the rearview mirror, Mayor Brad Cohen updated East Brunswick residents about the status of the municipality in his annual State of the Township address. “I do not think that it a stretch to say that 2020, for most of us living through a pandemic and the massive toll it has taken on our health, economy, way of life, has been an annus horribilis [disaster],” Cohen said during his Feb. 22 address. “We should be encouraged by the fact that after every storm comes a rainbow. … With the advent of vaccines and modern science, I believe that we have every reason to be hopeful. With that, we here in East Brunswick must reconcile the year 2020 and look to our future with hope and vigor.”
