Commissioner Director Louis Cappelli Jr. Issued the Following Statement

“It’s been one year since Trump has taken office and he has used his time in office to the sow the seeds of discontent and division throughout this country and one of his main tools for that has been Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Right now, as Gov. Sherrill has stated, Trump is using ICE as his own personal militia, and they have been terrorizing communities throughout the nation including here in Camden County. These agents have showed up in places like Camden City, Haddon Township, and Lindenwold Borough, and have indiscriminately worked to undermine the rule of law while simultaneously stopping individuals without cause and arbitrarily arresting them. We have watched videos of ICE officers with masks up, no body-worn cameras, wearing tactical gear roaming the streets in unmarked vehicles in search of their targets- our residents. This is why I am joining with our Congressman, Donald Norcross, and calling for the impeachment of the Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem.

Public Safety Reengineers Senior Shoveling Program for Remainder of the 2026 Winter Season

The change will ensure that the most vulnerable can attain access to the program

(Lindenwold, NJ) – The Camden County Department of Public Safety is recalibrating the senior shoveling program service to assist the most vulnerable populations in Camden County. Based on a substantial increase in demand and limited resources, the department is shifting its focus to creating access to the residences of individuals aged 65+ who receive dialysis, chemotherapy, or other medical maladies that require them to leave their residence for treatment or need a pathway created into their homes for at-home treatment.

“Based on the surge of phone calls, we are taking prudent steps to help the residents who are most in need of this service that we offer in coordination with the Camden County Department of Corrections. It is imperative for us to reach the most vulnerable, and the way the program is set up currently will not allow us to do that,” said Vincent Jackson, Director of the Department of Public Safety. “We are still asking our residents to explore alternate options of snow removal, like asking a neighbor or family member for help. This program is not meant to replace normal means of snow clearing, and should be treated as a last resort”
