not unanimous. So when I make a mistake, I like to make sure that you all know I I hold myself accountable for it. I made a mistake and saying no. I cannot change that vote, but I want the Mercy Center. They're they're at an event today, but I did get a phone call from them and I
want them as well as the community to know that I have supported them in all the years my children have. My daughter attended Sisters Academy. I supported them then. I support them now and in the future. So, I just wanted to uh make
that correction and that's all that I have for today for today. Thank you. Oh, and I wish you all a happy Thanksgiving in case I don't see you. >> Thank you, >> Council Member Chapman. >> Okay. And moving on from um Halloween and Thanksgiving, I'm already going to

>> Thank you, Mayor Moore. >> Just a safe and happy Thanksgiving to all and just uh remember what the day is about. Thank you. >> Thank you. Moving on to Marrison, the city manager. >> Yes. Good evening, mayor, deputy mayor,
council. Uh we have a presentation that we would like to do in reference to the uh the survey sent by the department of community affairs uh labeled best practices. So um I have our CFO here present and this would like to do a
quick uh visitation. In your packet, you should have received the best practices inventory. It's a division requires you every year from all municipalities. There's a total of 70 questions. 24 are
unscored. I call it a fishing expedition to see what other things they could have us do. Um the remainder are part of scoring of the scoring system. Points are either one or a half a point and the total score mal may receive is 45. We
received a 38. If you do not get a minimum score of 32, you lose part of your state aid. So we're safe from that. Um and there's multiple categories. There's budget, capital projects, the environment, ethics, financial
administration, insurance, personnel, procurement, redevelopment, and transparency. So, I think we did pretty good on this. Um, I don't know if you guys would have any questions. >> Not me. Thank you.
>> Thank you, Joanne. >> Thank you. Thanks, Moving on to Madison from the city attorney. >> I have nothing. Thank you. >> Thank you. We're now on to public participation. May I have a motion to open the meeting to the public? >> Move to open. Second. >> All in favor? >> I. The
>> public participation portion of the meeting is now open. Any member of the public who wishes to speak, please use the microphone, state your name and address for the record, and there will be a threeinut timeline for each speaker. Sure. Hi, I'm Dory McCaffry from the Monroe
Towers. We have an attendance association. We're here tonight just to first of all thank city council and the city for working with us on security issues that we have in our building and they're they're very serious and we really want to thank the police officers
as well. We've had really great support from the city council and we continue to hope to have that support. As we move into the winter, it gets worse because there's more and more people entering our building that don't live there. And um it's just been a threat to our
security in the building on our safety. Um and you guys already know the situation. I don't really need to go into details with it. And I just want to thank you so much for that. Thank you also for all the coffee councils that you do. I went to that today and saw
Eileen. I really appreciate that. It's a chance for us to get out into the community and meet some of the council members one-on-one, which is great. It's very informal. So, thank you for that as well. And if you have any updates on what's going on with the security of the apartment
complexes in the uh city of Asbury, that would be great to hear. And also completely off topic, but if if there's any updates on what's happening down at the Paramount with the restoration, whatever, cuz we can't see any of it.
So, I thank you so much again for all you all the work you guys do and um we just appreciate the time that you put in. Thank you. >> Thank you. And that's somebody else. I know we're working on a new ordinance. Yeah, I mean B dur we've spoken in we've
had several conversations. We're in the draft I feel comfortable saying the draft stage of an ordinance related to security for large uh apartment buildings. Um and uh Kevin just reviewed a bunch of other what other towns have
done and how they've handled it. So still like going through what works you know in in these other towns and then sort of stealing them for Asbury. So regularly meeting just got that from you
Kevin last week and going through the seven or eight other towns who have something similar and then we'll pull out. So, um, you're I'm happy for you all to come to a council meeting, but if you just, you know, give me a call Dorian in like two weeks and I can sort of tell you where where we're at if
that's helpful. >> And then quick update on the Parammont is that there is no update. Um, we are still working with them. They have till the end of 2026 to spend down uh the $13 million that was awarded by the state. Um, so we are working with them on those
plans and ensuring that uh waterproofing to that building happens and it puts it in better condition than it was. And in the meantime, the city has begun um construction on two restrooms on the boardwalk. People keep reaching out and
ask me what those holes are in the green spaces, but they are two restrooms similar to the ones on 7th Avenue that are going up on 1st and 4th. That's my update. Thank >> Matthew Whan, Asbury Park Chamber of
Commerce, 1011 Main Street. Good evening, Mayor and Council. I actually brought notes today so I don't forget anything. Um, first I want to thank you all for your support of the Carousel Awards. It was a great night. Um, we were c we celebrated some of the best of Asbury Park including city employees T
Gates and Sylvia Sylvia among a number of others. Um, so thank you for your your continuing support of that event every time we do it. Uh, next I want to make everyone aware of the Asbury Park Chambers holiday window decorating contest. We've been doing this contest for several years now and it is I think
it's helped make our town a little bit more festive uh during the holiday season. Um, any business is welcome to participate. They just need to contact the chamber. They can call us at 732-7757676 or they can email us at info@asburyparkchamber.com.
Um, and they need to have their decorations up by November 26th. Uh, judging of the windows will begin on November 28th, which is the day before uh, Small Business Saturday. Um, our goal is to have all the windows decorated for Small Business Saturday to last through the holiday season and really get, you know, a lot of
excitement for the holidays. Uh, we've got three categories that, uh, we're going to be judging the windows on. one is most festive, best use of recycled or repurposed materials, and then there's a people's choice award like we did last year where the public gets to vote on their favorite window. Um,
and uh, in addition to bragging rights, the winner in each category will receive a one-year membership with the chamber as well as complimentary passes to each of our regularly scheduled networking events. Um, again, all businesses are welcome to participate. You don't have to be a member of the chamber. Um, and I left some flyers on the table over there
about the window decorating contest. Also on the table, I left uh the new chamber uh visit visit Azri Park uh chamber member guide is out. Uh it's our most comprehensive list of all of our chamber members throughout town. Um and
it's a great piece that we we we give to brides who are having their weddings here. We drop them at rest at the rest areas on the Parkway. Um it's a it's it's a great piece that we have to help promote Azri Park. And lastly, to follow up on on Eileen's uh on what Eileen said
about tree lighting and such, um we have our downtown tree lighting and monura lighting coming up. The downtown tree lighting will take place on December 6th with festivities beginning at 5:30 and the tree lighting uh the tree being lit at 6 p.m. by Santa Claus himself. Then 10 days later on December 16th at 6 p.m.
we will have our annual Manura lighting in Kennedy Park with the help of our friends from Havada the shore. Uh both events have become hallmarks of the Azer Park holiday season and I hope everyone will join us. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Anybody else like
>> Good evening. My name is Lewis Morales. I own Endless Waves at uh 550 Cookman Avenue. I'm I'm here to talk to you guys as a business owner, but also a resident of Asbury. One of the biggest issues we're having as business owners right now is there's nobody in town. And
unless we decide we're going to do something about that, within a year, you're going to lose a lot of businesses on Cookman and on Bangs on some of the other streets. We're all pretty close when it comes to the business owners. We're always talking, we talk numbers, and I can tell you real numbers. I'm up
2% year-over-year. And 17% of that is because I saw the problem and went online and started doing online sales. So every single year we're it's getting worse and worse. We had the worst summer we've had in forever where I go outside
on Cookman Avenue and I'm counting parking spots in the middle of a day on a Saturday. So unless the town decides we want to actually start doing sundance to support the businesses and support the uh the the people coming into town, we're all going to fail and we won't be
here anymore. And now we have all these big beautiful condos going up, you know, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 million and they're going to have no retail because there'll be nothing here. We'll all be out of business. And it's pretty I I know it's a lot of work, but at the end of the day, I've had some meetings with Matt.
I've had meetings with Sylvia and we need to do something that's going to draw people to the town and whatever we're doing now just isn't working. I've been to the business uh meetings and that's basically a waste of time. All right, that's a bid session that goes nowhere. It's a it's a committee that
has no teeth. >> So, we need support from you guys to do something that's going to actually better us. And from talking to all the other business owners, we're willing to help. We're willing to step up and and do whatever we can to make this town succeed because we all love the town.
I've lived here since 2017, way before I had my business. I decided to retire and and open a business in this town because I loved it so much. But all of my work, all of my efforts are going to go to nothing if you guys don't help support
us. Um, I think one of the biggest things that needs to be done is a social media campaign that that's how people hear about us now. are our stores uh successful because of social media because of our online presence. We have people that come from New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut to come visit us, come shopping because they found us on the uh on our Instagram, on our web page, and come visit. And I it's my belief that Asbury Park needs to have a social media page
that's dedicated to bringing people to town. It's a beautiful town. We have so much to offer, but nobody knows we're here. Every single year, there's less and less people coming here, and it's it's pretty evident in all of our numbers. And if you want to ask any of the uh business owners, we'll be happy
to tell you what our numbers are, and they're pretty crappy. Thank you. >> I thank you. And thank you for rebringing it to our attention. And we're open to any and all the ideas. So, I mean, this is first time I'm not faulting you. I happy you've met with
the business committee. I know people have met with them. They've had better success than you're saying. I'm happy you're talking to Sylvia. So, I'm guessing you're a me member of the UEE. >> Yes, sir. >> Which a lot of businesses aren't and which is a total sin for everybody because I'm going to take a couple
minutes. Urban Enterprise Zone. There's only 31 cities in the state that qualify for it and Aspia Park's one of them. And the more businesses that sign up, the more money we get to address problems like this. The store owners will pay if
they're renting, we'll pay 10% of their rent for six months. Uh we'll give them grants up to $5,000 for new signs and new facads. Uh well, there's many other programs out there. You can uh buy up to $100,000 worth of equipment each year
and pay three and a half% in taxes instead of 7%. uh down the road hopefully we'll have a loan program which will be less than you know the 17 or 24%. So the uee is good, but I mean it just blows me away where it costs
nothing to sign up. Doesn't cost you a penny. You don't have to do anything. You just reap the rewards and the money comes back to the town. And out of the 31 cities, people would say, "Well, I guess Newark and uh Jersey City are getting the mess most money out of
anybody in the state." Totally wrong. Lakewood's getting the most money. They're getting about $9 million a year because businesses are joining because they see the benefit. I'm glad you're a member and hopefully you can talk other businesses where I've gone and told people would you please sign up even if
you we can't use you if you're a bar or restaurant but the more members we have the more money we get back and we can hopefully help solve your you know problem again uh I wish I had the silver bullet I can't I mean we're going to
have to sit down and figure this out together because there's not one set answer but if you say social media yet. I mean, okay, you know, we'll talk after, but I mean, we're willing to discuss that, but again, I appreciate you coming tonight
and making pitch about it. And I know other businesses we're meeting with because of the same concern. So, we're open for ideas and we do have some money through the UEE that we can apply to businesses, but again, we're all going to have to work together and come up with the solutions, but I thank you for
bringing it. Thank you. Anybody else like to be heard? Good evening everybody. My name is Andrew Lamman. I'm a resident of 1700 Web Street, the Myiar Building. Um, and I just want to first of all thank Councilwoman Chapman for the uh, coffee
with the council member event earlier today. It was a pleasure to meet you and I appreciate um, our discussion on the issue that I just wanted to address. Uh, as an attorney, I just wouldn't uh feel right unless I made a a record of the
issue. And um what that is is that Starfield is developing the the vacant lot between 7th and 8th a and between Web and Kingsley Streets. As part of that development, it's my understanding that they uh are in charge of a street
widening project on a between Web and Kingsley. uh they came at the end of January and shut down Athav uh between Webb and Kingsley uh in order to do that street widening project. They moved in some dirt. They moved in some construction vehicles, but they made no
progress whatsoever on the project. Memorial Day weekend uh they reopened the street having made no progress so that day trippers and people coming to use the beach could have access to parking. Um it was open all summer and after see here now they came and they
shut down the street again. Uh once again there are mounds of dirt and construction vehicles and it's clear unfortunately that they're only using the street as a staging area for the construction of the vacant lot. Um and as residents in a uh large building,
we rely on the street parking. Myself and a number of u my neighbors uh have been seeking some sort of solution. uh because we come home from work late, end up having to park a few blocks away. And uh in speaking with Councilwoman
Chapman, it come to my attention that um the appropriate uh members of the city administration were not aware of the fact that Starfield has shut the street down and that apparently um the city manager will be in touch with Starfield to have the uh street reopened, which I appreciate and I thank you for your
efforts on that. Thank you. Yeah. And I thank you and I thank uh Mary Valeno who sent us an email last week about it and that was the first time I heard about it. So I mean a lot of people and I don't fault them. They think we know everything.
We we only know if we drive around and see it, if we're told. So again, if there's anything out there that anybody sees, please bring it to our attention because they have no permission to shut down the street without our say so. I'm disappointed our police never brought it to our attention. the city manager is
gonna start fixing this tomorrow with the conversation with Starfield and give them so many hours to get their stuff off of our street and I said most let's start back charging for all the parking spots and the loss of revenue probably can't do it but I mean again if anybody
sees anything wrong in the city you're doing yourselves a disservice you're doing us a disservice by not bringing it to our attention we all have listed phone numbers we all have city phone numbers emails We can't fix what we don't know. So, I deeply appreciate you, Mary, and a couple other residents from
Myar just bringing it to our attention last week. No, thank you. So, I apologize >> and thank you for coming for those who came to coffee with the council person. We we really find out a lot on those opportunities to have one-on-one conversations. So, thank you.
>> Anybody else like to be heard? Okay. Yep. >> Hi, Maddie Fallon. 908 Main Street. Happy to be here. Thank you for everything that you guys do. I was just wondering if there could be a moratorum
put on all these condo developments happening in the city. I feel like the city is really and I know a lot of other residents feel this way that the city is losing a lot of that spark, a lot of the the what makes the city special because
there's all of these very bland, ugly luxury condo buildings being put up, you know, for for free to these developers. They're getting all these tax exemptions and what have you. And we're not really seeing the kickbacks of it. You know, they're they're doing the anchor
program. they're not paying taxes. I know there's one on the on the agenda tonight where they're being taxexempt. So, um looking forward to having more of a discussion about this, but I know a lot of the residents of the city hate them and we don't need more of them. We
have plenty. So, uh looking forward to keeping this conversation going. Thank you. >> No, I thank you. And just I appreciate your comments and uh you know the original plan from
2002 and then redone in 2008 whatever called for over 3,400 units in the waterfront. They're going to build less than 2,000 and there's nothing we can do about that. Me truthfully, I'm happy it's
2,000 not 3,400. But we have people in the city writing articles saying like we screwed up that we didn't let more eightstory buildings be built and more density. And I'm like where's this coming from? I mean we got enough and the most we're going
to have is 2,000. We're not there yet. But they have every right to build that and there's nothing we can do and by law we have to give them pilots. So, uh, but you're right, we're losing some of the grittiness and what made Osprey Park Osprey Park. And with the insane prices, it is gentrification, people being
forced out of the city, and it breaks all five of our hearts because we've been here so long. And, you know, it's not the city that I remember as a kid or even working for the city when uh, Fifth Avenue and Sunset Avenue were all garden apartments and that's where half the DPW
workers lived and now they're all condos. So, uh, you're absolutely right, but I'm happy it's 2,000, not 3,400 where people are slamming us saying like we screwed up. We should have more eightstory buildings and more units and everything. I'm like, maybe I'm miss I'm missing something here, but I agree with
you. >> Okay, that's good to hear. >> Okay, thank you. >> Thank you. >> Anybody else like to be heard? >> Motion to close. >> Second to close. >> All in favor? >> I. Public participation is now closed. Moving on to the minutes. I have the
regular and executive meeting minutes from October 22nd, 2025 and the special meeting minutes from October 31st, 2025. Do I have a motion? >> Move it. >> Second. >> Council member Bazarson? >> Yes. >> Council Chapman? >> Yes. >> Council member Clayton? >> Yes. >> Deputy Mayor Quinn?
