Our first speaker is Jean Perry. Good evening, council. Jean Perry, 77A Hobart Avenue, Beo, New Jersey. Uh, I'd like to ask the council, have anything received from the state of New Jersey regarding their recent compliance inspection of 85 East Second Street,
which has happened in July of 2025 >> regarding the violations and the permits. >> Has this or has the city filed up in the state of New Jersey? >> I have not personally been updated with anything on that. >> So, there's no more nothing's been
happening from the council or the legal council up here. I I don't I can't speak for somebody else, but on our our account, >> we were supposed to have somebody follow up from health, >> and I don't have I don't know if there's anybody from health here to even follow up with.
>> It's not. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> I'm sorry, Jean. Do you mind if I ask you? Please forgive me. I was in the middle of a comment, but what what was your Can you please state your question again? I'm sorry. >> Well, there was a there was the last time I was here, I was told by Mr. coffee that the city would follow up with the state. We'll be getting
information from the state >> on on our request for that come down and test. >> Correct. And there was a there was a compliance test done in July. Yeah. >> I'd like to know if the city received those results yet. >> Okay. >> Because it's back in full force. The tariffs have been passed >> and they work Thursday, Friday,
Saturday, Sunday, Monday till 2:00 in the morning. >> Right. 3:00 in the morning. I I do think um that the our business administrator is correct that those we we were not we were told we were not entitled to those result. I mean we obviously we could go out and request them but they didn't give them to us. They weren't
necessarily provided to us. Um I do know that that it was um director Coffey's intent to go and request them. I don't know that he made that request. Um I know that we were not provided them because we did uh you and I actually
after you reached out to me and I I went today we we spoke to him about it. It was his intent to request them. I I will follow up with him >> and just the council's awareness they're now using to store empty containers stacking them three to four high which is illegal in the city of Aon because
myself looked into that a while back my own ventures. >> They're they are they're empty contain they're stacking empty containers. >> Yes ma'am. They're not shredded yet. They're stacked up down there. >> Not shredded. >> Getting ready to load a barge or a ship. >> Oh, I see. Okay.
>> So, I look, I'll be here next month again. Thank you, council. >> Just if I might, please, Mary, >> I >> I'll make the request tomorrow. I won't wait. >> I have Mary J. >> But here's here's the thing. It would be beneficial for the calls to
come in with the complaints at the time that something's going on so somebody can be dispatched and witnessed >> already on it. Apologize to the desk the other evening. They will be getting off phone calls every night. They said call. I said if you don't have a car to send down, don't send the car down. I don't
want to waste a car if there's something else going on. But I want on record that we are calling now every night. >> Okay. I don't I don't Nobody reports to me. >> Thank you. >> Right. And and we definitely did not get anything across our desks. >> No.
>> Thank you, Mary Jane. >> Tom Ceri. >> Tom Ceri. 8 West Grand Street. Uh I don't know how many times I have to come here. It's the fourth or fifth time I'm talking about this. Every time I talk about it, you all look at me like deer in headlights.
I sent Miss Weamer a video of some psychotic person driving in the eastbound lane along uh Starbucks curbside to get to the traffic light >> against traffic.
>> Against traffic head on. I called Russo, our engineer, four times does not answer his phone. Are we paying somebody to stay at his house or his office out of town or is he
here all the time? Because when I come here, he's not here. When I call him, he's not here. If we're going to pay somebody to stay home, get rid of him. You don't need him. You got CME. I could call CME anytime during the day and I could get
somebody on the phone. This guy, this engineer that we have, he doesn't, Russo, doesn't answer his damn phone. And you're shaking your head. Yeah. >> He took formally from CME >> council. >> Well, guess what? Get rid of him because he he stinks.
>> There's so much traffic down there. You guys should have listened to Neil Carroll a while ago. When the traffic started building up, you just off and you okay in a 50story building. We don't even have a traffic light down there. I worked for KRE before them buildings were up. You were already 95% full down
there. That traffic light should have been up before KRE even started. Now KRE is full. They're parking their cars on the street on Chosen Fuel. They have parking, off streetet parking, but people are so they're paying $3,000
a month. They can't afford $100 extra a month. So they're parking on the street. But thing is you got chosen few in Goldberg. I was at that when I I took that video. I was at the turn. My ass
end of the truck was at the intersection of Goldsburg and Chosen Fuel. This guy went around me and drove almost 300 yards to the traffic light. What are we waiting for? Somebody to get killed before we decide to do something.
Put something in the middle of the street so people doesn't drive down that middle lane and cut across. Because if it does, I'm going to sit there when the family sues the city and I'm gonna say, "Well, I told Gary about this. I told Jay, I told Booker, I told Neil, I told everybody, and you're all
sitting there like this, and nothing's getting done." I I called Jackie. She's She sent Supposed She sent the thing to the public safety director. I seen the chief of police the other day. I mentioned to him, he didn't know nothing about it.
Neil, I showed him today for the first time and he said he's seen the same thing today. So, God forbid somebody gets hurt, it's all going to be on you. All right? And I and it's going to cost the city a ton of money and I'm going to sit there and laugh at you because this
is already told about the police department has a a video camera down there. I don't know if if it's working. I mean, it's right out right on the corner. They I don't know if Dave Lieutenant K is going down there and and video
looking at the video tape, but >> I don't want to interrupt you, but I'll talk when you're done. >> But it's, you know, it's getting it's getting worse and worse every day down there, and nothing's getting done. >> Good night. >> Good night. >> There is a plan in place.
>> Engineering, >> public works, everybody's involved in this plan. the public safety director. It's a matter of implementing everything and there's a money uh aspect to the whole thing too. So
the only thing I could tell you is it's going to happen but we have to be patient. >> I don't think >> borrowing money is not not the answer here. We need to just get get this stuff moving. We had some issues with our
engineering and we straighten those issues out. So, let's hope that something happens this month. >> I I would say you're right and not just because you agreed with me at some point in your comments, but you're right about the fact that it is on us and I've
as I've matured in this job, I've come to realize that it is incumbent upon us. Every time we pass a development, every time we agree or turn down a development, it's incumbent upon us to consider all the ramifications that arise from said project. Unlike what Mr.
Perry spoke about before, unlike the blight on downtown that is on Lexington Avenue, that is that scrap metal yard that I'm I'm totally against. at the base where you're referring to, we had the opportunity to approve these things and say this goes in here and that can
go in there and this goes in there where we didn't have that opportunity at that site downtown go going forward. You know that you mentioned it so I'll reiterate it. I was against that huge project because we had a current traffic problem that was only
going to get exacerbated regardless of what potential traffic studies said. We were looking at the problem. I went to get gas before coming to the meeting tonight. I left my house uh at 10:00 to 5. Didn't get into the building until 20 after. It took so much time to get in
and out of there and it's only 10 blocks away. There have been other projects. I was decidedly short um earlier in the meeting instead of going on about my concerns about that. But we have an
awesome responsibility and power here at this deis. And I think sometimes it's being used for the benefit of projects instead of the benefit of people. I think there's been examples of bending over backwards
almost in half where for a for a a building when we haven't done it for a person. This is a a nightmare. uh Goldsboro Drive, 25th Street. I I had to convince people up here that there was a
issue with bodies crossing 25th Street with uh that we had a station, two police officers there. Some claim not to be aware of it. The Goldsboro issue. We need to be much much more
careful and discerning than we have been. I asked for a traffic light before Costco was even built. The police did a traffic study and told me the light was not needed, but I knew Costco was coming and I knew this was going to happen.
Now, there's a plan in place, but as far as getting it implemented, I'm a little up in arms and I'm a little disappointed because of all the problems we've had with our engineering company. So, this is something that we need to get moving on right away. And it is
dangerous and it's very close to my house. I take it all the time just about every day and it's a nightmare down there and we can't just keep putting it off when there's certain people I don't want to finger point and mention names that
need to step up and get this done. I'll make sure of it this week. >> Council President. >> Yes, Mary Jane. I attended a meeting this week to find out what was going on as well.
There have been engineering studies. They change every time something new happens down there. The Lieutenant Ki in particular has been all over this. The it is a safety issue. Actually, um also Councilman Booker
spoke to Lieutenant Ki. There was issues with um engineering. Um without getting into it, it there there was a purchase and sale of the company which left us
without recourse for a short time. That was resolved this week. Projects decided who gets which project. This is very important and I don't even I won't even go down there myself because it's unsafe. I'd rather not get
involved in the traffic, but it is it it's a real high priority and the city officials are aware of the council's concerns, the citizens concerns. We I do believe resolved the engineering
thing this week, just this week. But Lieutenant Conte, I have to tell you, the police department's been all over this as well. Council President, I would like to uh jump in real quick. I just want to say that uh in regards to this uh topic, there are
plans. I know things take time. I'm not trying to convince anybody. Okay, we know the problem lies with the entrance and exit with Costco, with uh Starbucks and so forth and so on. It has not been a topic that we have overlooked. And uh I've spoken to Lieutenant Ki and I can
honestly say if anything he is diligent and he is really on top of what's going on and concerned for the safety of that area. I've been down there. There are high points and there are low points and things do take time. So I hope that uh the community can understand you're t you're absolutely correct. We're not
looking to get anybody killed down there. All right. So it it just takes time and we're on top of it. Nobody's ignoring this this issue and I go down there uh once a week and I too have seen some ills in terms of the traffic down there but Lieutenant Ki and the police
department they are definitely on top of it and their plans in place for entrance and exit with the uh with the Costco and that will happen hoping sooner than later. Thank you. >> Okay, next speaker is Carmelo Debar.
Uh, good evening, council. Um, my name is Carmela Deberry. I'm a resident of Bon of West 16th Street. Um, I have something to read for you and then a question if I may. Um, >> Carmemella, do us all a little favor and just speak a little bit. Raise your
volume a please. Jean, do you mind? We're gonna have someone come and and move the microphone for you a little bit if we can. There we go. >> Yep. Thank you. >> Thanks so much, Jean. >> Okay. So, to reiterate, um my name is Carmelo. I am 20 years old. I a resident of West
16th Street, and I'm here tonight as a wheelchair user to speak about Bayon's beautifification and the condition of our sidewalk, streets, and curb cuts. The curb cuts in our city um are frankly quite unusable. Um the angle is so steep
and abrupt that my wheels often get cut um halfway and stuck. Uh the jolt from the change in slope threatens to tip me over and on numerous occasions has fully tipped me both backwards and forwards. Um for many of us wheelchair users, um getting over these curb cuts is like
trying to climb a curb with no ramp at all. It's dangerous, exhausting, and utterly humiliating having to ask strangers for help just to cross the street. The cracks in the sidewalk and street only make matters worse. I've been told on more than one occasion to just avoid the cracks by residents,
wheelchair repair workers, and worst of all, Bayon PD after an incident where I was tipped forward and hurt my back and ankle. I was told to just get a new wheelchair, but avoiding the cracks would mean never leaving my home. Getting a new chair would mean begging
my insurance to pay another lump sum for a new chair. The cracks and bumps are everywhere. unavoidable landmines for my wheelchair. My wheelchair taking damage from these conditions is not a small inconvenience. The average repair for wheelchairs can run from a few hundred to several thousand in my case over the
last 6 months alone and I've tracked it and have receipts. Um I have had more than $7,000 worth of repairs done to my manual chair directly caused because of the damage um of the sidewalks and the curb cuts. uh bills like that, especially for disabled folks. Most of
us live on fixed income. Most of us SSI, SSDI, that bills are devastating. Those bills are absolutely devastating. Um I reiterate, these devices are not easily replaceable. Like some may think, my wheelchair costs my insurance over $33,000
without repairs. A price they wouldn't like to pay every few months because the city cannot maintain safe sidewalks, roads, and curb cuts. Without my chair, I can't leave bed. I can't leave my home. I have to wait for a repair that can take several months um because of the complications
of wheelchair parts. I just ask you, imagine leaving your home and breaking your ankle, breaking your leg, not being able to leave, having to wait for somebody to come to fix you. That's how I feel. Imagine being 20 years old, finding out that your great-g
grandandmother died, but your wheelchair is broken because of the cir the circumstances of the sidewalk. Having to pay not only the $200 for the part, but having to pay an extra $65 to overnight that part just to make it to her funeral. I was distraught. I was very
sad and I was very afraid I would not see her ever again. That was a part that was broken due to the horrific uh maintenance of the curb cuts. Um that is reality for me and many others. My wheelchair is my legs, my
independence, my connection to the world and it is being destroyed by the very infrastructure meant to make the city accessible. According to the ADA, curb ramps are required to have a running slope of no more than 8.33% um with side slopes limited to 2%.
Transitions onto the ramp must be flush and free of abrupt changes. New Jersey has different laws about who is responsible for sidewalks, curb cuts, and roads based off of county and town. And I'm honestly struggling to figure out where I need to go because this is a
serious issue. Um I I feel lost. Um and hearing of this new ferry system being built, um park updates, and the lovely city bird I've been hearing about, um I think accessibility should also be on everybody's radar. Uh, so that brings me
to my question. Um, what is the city's plan? Is there a plan? Is there anything that I can do to show you that this needs to be a plan? This needs to be part of budget. Something has to be done. >> There's a there's a lot of work being done on the corners. Now, I know it
might not be the whole town, but um Mr. Carter, maybe you can just enlighten us. Is anybody checking the slope of these new concrete uh corners? Yeah, it's um and it seems to be every few years the state changes the regulation on what the
slope should be and then wheelchair um curve accessible wheelch for wheelchairs become out of code and we replace them every time we pave a street. The first thing we do is you'll see we'll be out there and we do all four corners that are on
that street. So, we're constantly we're also doing a sidewalk project um coming up on Broadway and we're talking about putting in all new handicap ramps. We put ramps in all the time. It's
would be very cumbersome for the city to do a complete sidewalk rehabilitation throughout the whole town. the homeowners are responsible for the sidewalk in front of their house and also the corners, but when we do a
street, the city does those handicap ramps because putting that on a homeowner would be a a little rough. Um, they maintain the sidewalk and they take care of it. >> Mr. Con, so that you're saying the slopes are different because the law has changed. Yeah,
>> older handicap ramps would probably fall out of compliance. And if you notice, some of the ramps now have the bumps on them. And a lot of people think those are for better traction. They're actually for this uh blind so that they
can feel when they're coming to the the corner. >> Could I ask you a followup question? So, with respect to the corners that we're talking about now, are you saying the corners that aren't done are the ones that are particularly bad, or are you referring to these corners that are being done with those pads on the
ground? >> I I'm going to be honest, I mean no disrespect by this. I haven't noticed any new new corners personally where I go throughout the day. Um what I'm noticing is uh I go oftentimes from West 16th Street um to Andrew Street and even
just getting there alone it's a couple of blocks and it takes me 30 minutes maybe because of having to navigate um the in frankly insane incline that some of these uh some of these curb cuts have. >> Well, here's what I would suggest
because Director Carter and the council president are right. We get monies from the state to complete these projects. Many of them have occurred. In fact, I saw recently they just finished one uh Tuesday morning on 23rd in Broadway and
there's been a few others uh at 19th in Avenue C as well. I think was just on 31st. My my suggestion is this. The route you're talking about, and I only mention it because you mentioned that route, is shared between myself and uh the second ward council woman, Miss Wemer. I don't want to speak for her,
but I think she will agree. Why don't you communicate with us about the areas that are particularly egregious and then we can work with the inspectors to have them go out. As Director Carter said, if there is a homeowner whose sidewalk is
totally out of whack, then we need to know about it so that we can have an inspector go down and alert the homeowner. They need to fix it because it is it is their responsibility. While you're doing that, if it is possible to do, I don't want to put you out, but if it is, also let us know
about any other city-owned areas that fall under that problem that problem child category. All right. >> And I think particularly we would work together on that. I think that's the thing if you can >> right I I I think that what what part so
obviously Carmelo first and foremost one I'm I'm very sorry that that was a a financial burden on you at a time that you really should have been allowed to grieve and put your your concentration on your family. So I'm I'm very sorry
for that. two, as this as the first word councilman said, um there are there are obviously areas in the city um that do require repair and because it is an everchanging and ever evolving requirement and standard that we have to live up to.
We're not perhaps we're not as aware of those that should be placed in a higher priority. if you are out and about in the city and I'm and before we leave we'll we'll we'll communicate to you and give you our our cell phone number so that you have it and you can simply send
us a photo, send us the street and what we'll do is we'll work with Director Carter and the DPW to see if those areas could be put on on the list of of priority so that because we do know that
our community and we value I think Bayon does a wonderful wonderful job in in working with and coordinating with our residents that have a disability. And and we try in every possible way to to make certain that they are they have um
every ability to live a full and enjoyable life. And and I want you to do that. I I don't want you to be restricted because your your ability to navigate the city is limited by by our shortcomings, right? So, if you can communicate with us as to those areas
that you're seeing, right? You're out there every day. I'm ashamed to tell you I'm probably not out walking as often as I should be and I'm a little bit lazy and I'm probably driving by in my car, but I don't I don't see it. I don't not
every day as you do. So, if if you are willing to to share this with us, well, then we can work with Director Carter and his team. um you know who who certainly have no shortfall of responsibilities, but I think everybody
would be willing to put this a little bit higher on our priority list so that we know that you have the ability to safely navigate around our city, >> right? And and I appreciate that a lot. I just wanted to make sure that the council knew that at least a plan should be in place. I mean, I know overnight
fixes aren't possible ever with any issue. Um, I just wanted to make sure that there was somewhere that I could go because, you know, when you say to yourself, "Oh, I want to do a quick Google search of who I need to tell like in my city," it it sends you in uh rabbit holes and there's never a clear
answer of who to talk to. >> That never happens. >> So, >> yeah, we get it. We do. So, no, thank you very much for getting here this evening. Um, and and for sharing that with us. Um, it's it's very helpful. And
again, I'm, you know, we we appreciate it. >> Just so you know, as a city, we do have a plan as far as it goes for handicap ramps. Um, we also require for all our developments have to have all new handicap ramps put in at our parks. Our
parks have all been ADA compliant when we redo a park. So, we're doing the best we can, but when you have a huge city, it takes a long time to get every single one done. Think about it. Every street,
four corners, you know, we have over 500 streets easily, probably more if I counted side streets, dead ends, um, all of that stuff. So, we do have a plan to do it, but it just takes time. We can only do so much. So yeah, we spend
probably 30% of our paving job is handicap ramps. So if we spend a million dollars on paving, 300,000 to 400,000 is in putting in handicap ramps. So the money is being spent, it just takes a long time. And
like they said, if you can identify the areas where you are, we can look at them and see where they are as far as being scheduled for paving or possibly just fixing the ramps. All right. But and always if possible and I tell this to everybody who calls with a complaint, a
picture right >> along with the complaint helps speed the process along tremendously if if you can. >> I have to agree with Mr. Carter. They are doing if you go southside on Broadway, they are fixing those handicap
ramps. I've seen them. They started from my area where I live on 39th Street and I see them going all the way down and Mr. Carol said 23rd. I saw 23rd. I saw 22nd and now they're working on 21st. So they are working on it. The the city is
working on it. >> Okay. Okay. Moving on. Where is 09 is an ordinance for introduction. It is an ordinance of the city of Bayon in the county of Hudson, New Jersey, providing for the special emergency appropriation of $3 million providing for the payment of contractually required severance
liabilities resulting from layoffs or retirement of employees and a resolution moved by the council president fixing Wednesday, October 15th in the Darth E. Harrington council chambers as a time and place for public hearing and final passage. Mr. Booker, will you second? >> Second.

>> I >> CR1 17 is designating the yellow crown knight >> 16, sorry, as the official bird of the city of Bayon. So, this uh was a uh suggestion by uh
the Bono Nature Club and Mike Reign and um he said that they've identified over 20 nests. I see them constantly down the county park and uh heard that. >> Mike, did you want to say a few words? >> Yes. Are you going to read the
resolution? >> Uh I'm going to read that whole resolution, that two-page resolution, >> but I think it's excellent. I think you've done a great job with it and and I mean this is just something that I have to read it.
>> Would you like me to read it? I will read it. >> Well, you read it because I think you've done whoever put it together did a terrific job with it. And then I also have to thank you know the council the mayor and department of public works for the work they've done in during the tree
cutting situation how they were called up and made sure they were protecting the nest of the yellow crowns. And also I'd like to thank the members of the Bayon Nature Club for their their enthusiasm over this and keeping the club together and all the bird watching events. And a big shout out to one of
our members, Jim Bewinsky, who went with me all the time monitoring the nest and stuff like that and it's really turned out terrific. So, but yes, if you could read that resolution, it'll be terrific while I present the >> So, Mike, the city council, you thanked us, but the law department had a lot to
do with this as well. >> They they did >> we want to thank them as well. >> Yes, I definitely thank them. It was a It's really terrific and I think that the resolution should be read so people can understand it's not just >> the Bayon yellow crown. I think they put a lot of thought into it.
>> Okay. Whereas the city of Bayon wishes to ensure the survival and continued thriving of all who live and will live in our community, including non-human species for countless generations to come by pursuing innovative policies that advance sustainable development,
environmental justice, and economic prosperity. And whereas many cities, states, and countries designate specific bird species to serve as a symbolic representation of their culture, identity, and commitment to wildlife protection. And whereas the city of
Bayon has not yet designated a city bird. And whereas the yellow crown knighth heron has lived in the city of Bayon since before the peninsula was settled by humans, and Bayon is now home to a large and prosperous yellow crown knighth heron community. And whereas the
yellow crown knigh heron is a resilient bird with remarkable adaptability for living in urban areas while remaining wild and retaining their natural behaviors and can be seen roosting on the beams of overpasses, hanging out in alleys downtown and nesting in trees.
And whereas this gritty and resilient bird has charon knits of all ages because it is easy to see, identify and enjoy. And whereas the yellow crown knighth heron serves as an excellent symbol for the city of Bayon given its bold personality and industrious
lifestyle and as a representation of our strong willed, tenacious and dynamic community which despite adversity and hardship always shows the strength and resiliency to rise and thrive. And whereas while the official bird designation offers the yellow crown
knighth heron habitat no additional regulatory protection, it will raise public awareness of the unique behavior and habitat requirements of this species, foster public stewardship for its continued existence, and be a potent symbol for awareness of the increasingly
difficult challenges posed by climate change in the years ahead, magnifying the message that we must safeguard the environment and the animal species whose fates depend upon on it. And whereas public awareness is a crucial component of migratory bird conservation, and
residents who are enthusiastic about birds, informed about the threats they face, and empowered to help address those threats can directly contribute to maintaining healthy bird populations. And whereas the century old Migratory
Bird Treaty Act, MBTA, the nation's oldest and most effective bird conservation law that protects nearly a thousand species of birds from poaching, hunting, and accidental killing, is under threat from the Trump administration, which is seeking to
apply a new interpretation of the law to end industry accountability for bird deaths. Now therefore be it resolved that the municipal council and the mayor recognizing that the yellow crown night heron is a common permanent residence in Bayon parks, city streets, trees and
waterways hereby designates the yellow crown knigh heron as the official bird of the city of Bayon and be it further resolved that the city of Bayon reaffirms its commitments to advancing the health, safety and prosperity of our human and non-human residents and the
natural environment that we inhabit. to the benefit of all people, wildlife, and their habitat, and shall place no fewer than four signs in visible locations around the city, informing residents and visitors alike that the yellow crown knigh heron is city of Bayon's official
city bird. Congratulations. Thank you so much. And this we give it to which is from the art of the drift which when we do the river cleanup we get the driftwood that floats up and stuff clean up and everything like that and this one
was just done. I mean mother nature herself has designed it and we're giving this to Mr. and there is a display at the public library of the art of the drift. >> Wow.
[Applause] [Laughter] So, Mike, really, we have to thank you, both you and and the nature club, for really um your dedication to not only our our our community um and to keeping our
shorelines clean so it is protected for for nature and for our birds and our animals. uh really just for your your time and your effort um and your desire to continue to do it. So, thank you and and the Bay of Nature Club for all of your efforts as well. It's greatly
appreciated. >> Thank you for the donation of the picture. I think what we're going to do is adhere that to the wall out by the secretary so everybody can see that. Okay. >> And we'll put a little title on it. That's the official bird. >> All right. And don't forget with the when you enter Bayon, you just put that
big yellow night there. Say, "Welcome to Bon." Okay. >> All right. >> We'll put it on the turn pipe. >> So on that resolution, Mr. Booker, >> I >> Mr. Carroll, >> I >> Mr. Perez, >> I

housing law >> would like to move it >> second >> and on the resolution Mr. Booker >> I >> Mr. Carol, >> this is in conjunction with the properties in development on Broadway. This is around the corner though if I
understand correctly. Are these two family homes? >> I don't know if they're two. They're homes, but I don't know what how many families there are. >> I think I thought they were one families to be honest with you, but it doesn't matter. It's a home. >> It's a home, >> right?
>> I'm sorry. This is in this in the in the middle of a residential block on 33rd Street. This is adjacent to the parking lot on East 33rd Street. >> So, I'm sorry. This is this Mike Melli again uh for the redeveloper. This is >> right behind the project on the corner
of 33rd Street that that uh the council >> Oh, it's the parking lot. >> It's the parking lot and there are two homes in between and we have talked to the property owners there. This is a non-demnation area. Um no one's taking their homes. Um they've been the discussions have been positive with them
right now. I think there is interest in them doing a a transaction with us and as Mr. Lapalooa mentioned uh it's also got the city parking lot in it. So it will take from the city parking lot on 33rd Street which is on the north side of 33rd Street take the project wrap it
around the corner go through to the site which now that lawsuit has been settled and the agreement of sale has been the contract of sale has been entered. So, the the goal is to go from halfway uh on between 33rd and 34th, head south, wrap around and get down to the the city
parking lot and hopefully provide more city parking than is there now. That's the goal, >> which is really important. >> That's the goal. >> So, I ideally so in between there are two residential homes. >> Yes. >> And you're representing that the conversations with those residents have
been positive and perhaps they'll give some consideration to some sort of an agreement of sale. >> Yes. And if they don't, then we can't we can't >> And if they don't, you'll accommodate them to the best of >> Yeah. We can't right we can't get it done. And we'll protect them during the construction of hopefully the first phase of it up on on Broadway. Um it's
it's voluntary. If they want to sell, they can. If they don't, there's nothing anyone can do to force them. >> Okay. >> All right. >> All right. >> And this is also associated with the parking requirements for the other two projects. >> Not that it doesn't necessarily have to go into this phase. It can go in the
other phase as well. uh and they are actually speaking uh to the property owners. The property owners on the corner of 33rd Street and the property owner at 745 747 Broadway. As far as I understand, I can't get in between them because they're my clients, but as far as I understand, they are the deal to to
memorialize a parking agreement between those two lots is imminent. >> It'd be nice. The whole neighborhood would get cleaned up. So it would because obviously you you realize that the the >> the moving forward of one project is contingent upon mandatory. So it would
you know we could approve this all day and night but if we can't meet the requirements >> absolutely >> obviously it wouldn't go through. >> Yes. Okay. Agreed. >> All right. Thank you. >> All right. Thank you. >> So on the resolution Mr. Carol, >> no. The I'm uncomfortable with uh much
of what's associated with this, especially the parking situation as was described at the last meeting. And I I just I would I may be uh not recognizing a lost cause when I see one, but I I
would beg my colleagues, it's it's deeply concerning the the parking issue, as was described, is vague at best, and triggering one element of the phase and triggering another. I I vote no.
>> Mr. Perez, >> I >> It's okay. You don't need to make a comment, >> Miss Weamer. >> I do think that the parameters surrounding this agreement are somewhat unique. Um, but I do think that the community as a whole will probably
receive a greater benefit from the additional parking um that this is going to create. And I do think that it it helps meet a requirement uh for a couple of different projects. And I I don't necessarily see
the negativity in that. I think it does it it helps afford um a greater resolution for what is a significant problem in the community such as parking. I vote I >> Mr. Lapalosa. >> Parking is one of the top three issues
in this town. I've been touting us getting parking garages in all different parts of this town. This would be the start of it. this would generate so many more parking spots for the neighborhood that um it would be such a benefit. I
can't even begin to tell you. So, I know my colleagues and I get many, many calls about the lack of parking and what a problem it is around town. So, I'll be looking forward to something like this that would benefit all those people. And with that, I'll vote I.
>> Okay. Ed one is coming off. Air two is authorizing the submission of an application to the New Jersey infrastructure bank financing program for funds to effectuate the lead service line replacement project in the city of
Bon and authorizing the chief financial officer and business administrator to execute any and all documents and take any and all actions with respect to the same. Who'd like to move it? >> Move it. >> Second. >> And on the resolution, Mr. Mr. Booker. >> Hi, >> Mr. Carol.
