Most people have no idea what we're talking about when we make that statement. Okay. So, there's going to be clarification for the public. >> What was it again? 516. You said >> it's 16 516. It has to do with Potter. >> A lot of people don't know about that
particular part. I would like to get it clarified for the for the public really. That's all. >> Sure. It's Matt Sarski, the county planning director. Uh the Pocket Park is located directly adjacent to Potter's Tavern. Um it's a small little tiered
park that is less than a third of an acre. Um and it's actually owned by the county as is the property the Potter's Tavern is located on. Um, it was constructed originally by city of Bridgton in the early 80s, transferred
to the county in I believe the '9s and, um, has a, uh, number one, it's not ADA accessible in the way it was constructed at all. And number two, it has a failing retaining wall. Um, so, uh, we've been
challenged at the county to come up with a solution. Uh, and we have received a grant to do the redesign of the park and the property surrounding Potter's Tavern. Um, and that's what the resolution is, awarding that contract.
>> I think was important is that um, it's the wall that's dangerous. Okay. The walls partially falling down and we're trying to reestablish that, make sure that it's safe for the public. So, a lot of people don't realize that park is
very, very small. >> It was just kind of left to us. So, we're it's up to us to take care of it. Glad that we were able to get some grant money to take care of it. But that was it. Thank you. Thank you. >> I will say Potter's Tavern is it's historic building. It's right down the street. If you haven't been there, you
should check it out. I know they do a Fourth of July uh event there and it's I've been there a few times. It's a very nice event. So, here's a little plug for the Potters Academy. So, any other questions or any discussion on any other items? Anyone? If not, we can move on to public comment
for non-aggenda items. >> Do I have a motion? >> So, move. >> Second. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> I I All right. So, if there's any public comment for non items, please step one up and let us know who you are, where
you're from. >> Uh Sandy Aso, Upper Deerfield Township. Um, my question is, what is the obligation for Cumberland County as it relates to the regional jail project? Will there be an opportunity for
Cumberland County to remove itself from any and all obligations that we signed one for? And it's my understanding that Winsler residents do not want it. and we're not convinced that it's the best thing for the taxpayers of Cumberland County, especially considering we're
locked into the debt for the um cement pad and uh considering that this uh regional jail uh proposal will be a separate individual taxing authority
with Cumberland County being the one that will benefit greatly from Cumberland County's I Camden County being the one who will benefit greatly from Cumberland County's participation. I think we need to take another look at that if if at all possible.
And um on 2026 099 really uh library commission was the best gig that you could find for this loyalty. Thank you.
20269. >> Thank you. >> Any other comments? >> Motion to close. >> Second, >> sir. >> All in favor? I
>> well to answer the one question I guess I'll I'll do the best I can with it but I know there has been a request we have a presentation done I think that's been put in for and I think a lot of those answers uh will be had when we have that presentation uh do we have any time
frame on when we can go back it's a matter of bringing multiple parties together um Camden County is working on that as we speak um it's going to take some time to put that together because there's multiple entities throughout the country that >> I was just going to say I think people
have to realize that this is a national company that's a consultant to do this and they're going to be bringing people in from different parts of the country in order to do the presentation. >> Completely appreciate that and we are prioritizing that. We're doing our best to to accomplish that. So soon as we're able to, we'll get that in here and then
uh you'll get a presentation to maybe better answer some of these questions >> and and just from Art over here too, I have a lot of questions and concerns that I'm going to bring up. We're new to the table here. So, I know I have a lot of questions and I I need a lot of explanations before we can obviously move forward. So, if you have them, it
might be the same ones we have. So, you know, we can talk to to everyone and hopefully we can get those answers. >> And recently, I asked uh you done. >> Yeah. Go ahead. Recently I asked uh that we take a walk uh at the Camden County
facility to see how they work to see how they they treat our inmates to look at the operation to make sure us the commissioners are in the right track making that right decision. >> Mine was a legal question though as far
as what are we locked into right now. >> I'm just letting you know that. >> Thank you. So I think after ma'am the only thing we have left here would be is there a need for executive session to discuss I think she >> I'm sorry I
>> there's another piece there's another piece of that >> my question was >> I apologize >> feel free >> it's it's regarding if I'm not mistaken the question is do we have the ability to pull away Yes.
>> Um I think we're we have we have signed on for the agreement. Um it's my understanding that anything is open, but but it's my understanding that this board at the time is is committed to move forward on that. Um that's all I can really say that there's every
contract has the ability, but um the commitment was made to move forward. Um you mentioned the taxing authority. Yes, it is a taxing authority, but the money that would be going to the jail in our standard budget gets released from our budget. Is that correct, Jeff?
>> Yes. >> From the debt. >> Uh, no, no, no, not the not not the previous debt of the pad. The pad is is a separate topic. I'm speaking of the operational. It would be operating budget. Would it be Mr. >> If you're not funding a jail operation, then it would come out of the county
budget. >> Correct. So, it would come off. No, the taxing authority would would provide funding for the for the regional re-entry, but the so that would it would be it would remove any expense for the jail in Cumberland County because we
wouldn't be operating. Is that right? There would be no county jail once the new jail. >> So, if you're not funding the operation you county budget, it would not county budget. That's happy. >> Okay. Little clarification.
The way I understood the quote unquote agreement, we signed on to the part of the regional jail. This is only the beginning. This isn't this isn't set in stone because we don't even know exactly how this is going to
be built. We do not know the design of it. We do not There's a lot of things that we don't know. What we're doing is we're saying that we are very interested in being part of the regional jail just like another county that's involved. They are going to have a vote on it.
Okay. Nothing isn't set in stone right now at this point in time. There is just too many um a lot of items that aren't answered is what I'm getting. And my understanding is it's like saying
to you, listen, we agreed to do this on this particular property, you and I, but we don't even know what we're going to do to the property. So, we didn't even come to agreement with what we're going to do, what how how large the uh the jail's going to be, um what's it going
to look like, who's going to staff it, how many people we're going to need to staff it. There is so many things that aren't answered at this point in time. this is an agreement to be part of the regional jail. That does not mean that they're going to dictate to us how we're
going to go about doing everything. So, that's that's the best thing I the way I can describe it to you. There's just too many uh items that aren't answered for us to be definitely solid on. Okay, we're in, done, finished. Okay. I don't
know if that helped you. >> May I comment? >> No, I'm asking. Did that help you? >> Well, no. I mean, there's difference between what we're legally obligated to do in the contract and what we think we're going to do if we don't if we don't like the way the terms are. And I
guess that's what I'm trying to differentiate what is our legal obligation under the contract and will we have a chance once we find out what all these variables are to change our minds about >> I believe that's the way the the the agreement was set up. >> Okay. And that was my question.
>> Yes. Okay. That's that's the best I can I can give to at this point in time. There's so many unanswered items that all it was was we made an agreement that we would like to be part of this and that was it. >> All right. So with that being said there
need for executive session. >> Yes. >> Yes. Resolution 2026-11 resolution providing for a meeting not open to the public in accordance with the provisions of the New Jersey New Jersey Senator Bern and Bear open public's meeting act NJSA 104-12
matters relating to litigation negotiations and the attorney client privilege matters relating to the employment relationship do I have a motion and second >> move second commissioner >> did you want to make mention there's any do we expect any Yeah,
>> we expect No, we expect no. >> No, we expect No, we expect >> Make that statement. Wait, make that statement. >> We don't We don't expect any to take any action after the uh close session. >> Commissioner Cavazol, >> yes. >> Commissioner Garcia Baliki, yes.
Commissioner Ostino, >> yes. >> Commissioner S. >> Commissioner Romero, >> yes. >> Deputy Director Maran, >> yes. >> All right, we're going to executive session. Whoever wants to remain, feel free to. However, as was stated, we take
no action when we come back. >> This has been a QVC television production in association with our partners and sponsors. QBC broadcasts on Comcast cable channel 22 and live streams its programming on Facebook and YouTube. All rights reserved by Quinn
