things that I and some of us have been up to since the last meeting we met. Um first of all, I'd like to congratulate the Lyn Mall High School class of 2026. And I wanted to take a moment to just acknowledge and I've cleared this with Jackie already, but I wanted to take a
moment to acknowledge there were several school retirements this year. a total over 129 years of experience since Dr. Lyn Hall. Um, but the one that's most special to me is supervisor Michelle Bernardino. She came from school number
five. She was my daughter's third grade teacher. I was her role model. Uh, so I had a lot of experience in working with her. She uh retired as the service um as the um academic intervention district
supervisor. while she did a lot of great things for this community, she cared about the children in the community. And so I just want to say thank you to Mrs. Bernina. We did have um opportunity to run into her at the Martin Luther King celebration at the high school and I had
an opportunity to thank her and wish her well um in her way. And I think her son also did his internship here from college while I was gone and now he's a CPA. So um we want to wish Miss Vern Miss Vernon well. Thank you for her commitment to the children of Lindol and
all that she did. She's a lovely woman and I just wish her the best. I also want to congratulate the class of 2026, Egypt. Um Egypt on um 20 of June 20th competed in the New Balance National Championship. It's held at Franklinville
Field at the University of Pennsylvania. She broke the record for high jump at 5 10.5 and a half. Um she is a scholar a member of the National Honor Society, the National Mathematics Society, the National Social Studies Society. She's
an athlete, a vocalist, an actress, and a choreographer. And the school when I asked about her said that she is the complete package, a mature young lady. Uh she is going on to attend the University of Central Florida majoring in business administration. So, and for
those of you that don't know the national, the New Balance Nationals that are held annually in Franklin, there's a very high competition rate that's needed to compete at this level. So, congratulate Miss Bowen and all the graduates, but especially want to highlight her and her accomplishments.
So, you can know the Bowen family, wish her well. Let her know that we spoke very highly of her and wishing her all the best at the university. Um, movie night. Now I haven't been discussing this but Dwayne and I l when she's off we take our road our our our
ad road and we show movies at the senior buildings. Um the purpose of this is we hope with fellowship to bring them out of their apartments so they can socialize. We're doing our second round of movies. Um now we showed Sarah's oil at one senior building. will be going to
another senior building going on 24th um which is a Thursday night and we were coming straight from work right into the senior building putting up the the the uh screen and having sex and just having a good time in fellowship. So I wanted to share that with everyone. So we're on
our second movie now. Um we had a great time on Junth with our Junth crafts with our seniors. They made greets for their doors. They had a great time. Showed their creativity. If you guys interested in seeing the photos, I can show you those as well. Um,
>> good time in the park like what 26th of June. Um, Linda couldn't come, so she asked me did I sell for her and I ended up getting a hot dog. So, I knew it. Um, great time, nice turnout, good weather, um, lots of snacks sold. Um, the event
was great. And at one point at the end of the night um my husband and I were walking to the car and they were playing I actually thought it was like a tape playing it was like Santana music. Remember when they were playing that and they were like they were in the pocket. I mean they were playing and I turned around and I was like are you playing
the tape? And it was them they're fantastic musicians. They were very very um I encourage everyone as you know I work with the Camden County Clerk's office proudly. Um, we have a Facebook page that we offer now and an Instagram page that provides informative
information to our community. There are pages that acknowledge people and let them know about frauds and anything else that are going on in the community. It is meant to educate and protect the people of Camden County. I'm very proud to be an employee of the Camden County.
I have brought along with me a Camden County Clerk property alert. Some of you are new to this to this um these meetings. Please take one of these. You hit the QR code. You register your business. If you your your property, if you have more than one property, you
have to register each one. Every time something is recorded on your property, you will receive an email. It does not stop, but it actually gives you your first hand. You get an alert. You go, "Hey, I didn't do this." And then you start on your window to reverse whatever it is. So, we we encourage everybody in
the county. There's some people that are sending out um business things to people telling them that they have to pay $285 a year in order for them to monitor your information. You don't have to do that. You can register right on here. Include your email and they'll get the
information. I am leaving some with Kelly and she's going to place them at each office to make sure that people see those as it is. It is and it works. Um and and a couple other things, man. I know I'm a little long, but I just want to go and talk about my one. So this
month, the month of June is men's mental health awareness month and it's a good time to check in on the men in our lives. Men sometimes suffer in silence conditions like PTSD, B uh bipolar disorder, eating disorders, grief,
depression, and anxiety and worry which goes along with anxiety are and many times these things are not picked up in them. Men are most likely to be undiagnosed with things. Part of that is because of barriers and sickness. Please
do not suffer the silence. Many employers offer mental health access. Many are on Zoom. You can speak with a trusted hospital. Maybe someone at your house of worship. And the county also offers access to mental health. Maybe
you have to your budget and your parameters. Um, you can reach the Cammy County Health Department at 8563746000 to start off if you just want to be matched to someone. And the last thing I have to say, and you're going to get mad at me about this, but I want I want to
share something about you and it really spoke to of your heart. Okay? And I know you're going to get mad and just be um I've shared with Rich about a gentleman that recently moved to town. Um, I think he's 60ome years old. This
is the first apartment he's ever had in his life and he's building rebuilding his life and he needs a lot of things and which we're working on some things for him. But, um, the only thing that he had in his apartment was a bed and a
pillow. And so I asked I was just asking around to see if anybody had any old TVs lying around that they might be able to give to the gentleman or whatever. And Rich immediately pulled out his phone and went on Walmart and he ordered the man on television set
and I said, "Rich, do you want me to go have with you or whatever?" And he said, "No, I got it. I got it." And the TV was there by 6:00 that night. So, may I thank you? You know, there are times there are absolutely times when you get to see into a person's heart and you see what you're about. Nobody's looking. He
wasn't show, you know, he wasn't on the stage. He wasn't trying to impress people. We didn't post it on, you know, whatever social medias. It was a moment between him and I and the gentleman was overjoyed. He called his brother. So, he couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe
that the mayor would buy him a television set. And so, thank you, mayor, for being caring about. >> I love Before I give my little spiel, I must say I was very disturbed about what took place here tonight.
>> Our town was incorporated in 1929. And I am sure I have the sentiments of everyone that's here. If you're in this town and you don't see fit to bring something positive to this community, then you're
in the wrong community. >> I moved down here from Montlair in 1994, you know, to a small town expecting to find whatever. and my son got killed in 2004 for our country.
But I've never seen such chaos among a disabled community. It's we should not be doing this. I'm very hurt. I've only been in council since January and I've never seen anything like this. Please, let's
not do this again. Okay? Try your best. >> You have something against somebody. What's wrong with that person? because we're exercising. >> With that being said, >> good evening everyone. >> June 18th was the last day of school for
our law students. Summer programs continued throughout the district in different location because of construction. There are HBAC updates upgrades and construction going on throughout the throughout the district and in various schools all paid for by
the state of New Jersey. So we're not putting out any money. The state of New Jersey is making renovations in the schools. That's all. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Now, history project report update. A few residents have expressed interest in participating
in another Pona House tour. Um there's a tour day scheduled for Thursday, August 6th at 12:30. This is a meaningful way for us to bring the community together around shared history, local stories, and neighborhood
pride. I completed the last two county collection visits today and had another one on July 1st. The next study visit is scheduled for Friday, July 17th. Hopefully by that visit, most of Lind
Wall's history will be documents from the county's collection materials. At this time, I'm especially interested in collecting and documenting Lindal history from the period between 1980 and 2026, including community memories,
photographs, records, events, and personal stories. The community is also encouraged to share as much land history as possible as these records will be important for preserving our story as time moves forward. Residents are welcome to
participate however you can. Whether you're submitting photos, documents, memories, stories, research, or other historic materials. And as an FYI, the Burlington County Park System is hosting the founding mothers of the American Revolution on
July 4th or 15th from 10:00 until 12:00 at the Burlington County History National Last I think of history and national scientist in Mount Holly. And finally, his story interviews are expected to restart around late August
or early September in anticipation of a fall gathering. These interviews will help continue building the oral history portion of the project and add more humanity voices to our >> Thank you, Mayor. And good evening, everyone. First, I just want to start
with some reminders for some upcoming events we have. Uh Friday we're doing the movie Zootopia uh >> Zootopia 2. >> Utopia 2. Uh that will start at 8:00 p.m. Um the
following Friday, the 17th, we have a concert uh featuring Chicago 9. Uh that will start at 7 p.m. And August 7th uh that is prior to our next council meeting. So I just wanted to get that out. August 7th is the car
show starting at 6 PM followed by No Surrender, a spring sing tribute that will start roughly around 8:00 p.m. I also want to mention I saw past the senior congregate I believe last Thursday
or Tuesday and just so happened to get a new member there. I'm very happy to see that. It seems like it's building, but I still encourage any senior that's interested if you have the time just to stop by just to see what it's about. You might be interested, but the seniors are
having a good time and we have some of them here. I'm sure they'll speak to that. They're having a good time and I occasionally bring them some donuts and fruit and stuff like that. >> Too big. that not too big. Never too big. You want them all, right?
>> The more we get, the more we can do, the more we can ask the county for. The county really sponsors that. So, the more people we can get in there, the more we can do. Maybe we can get more days. Right now, we're only two days. Hopefully, we can get up to three or four days. We get if we get the participation.
>> Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yes. Oh, also just wanted to mention um in light of the flooding that we see in the county in Canada, I just got online looking for options for insurance. Most
of us don't have flood insurance. Uh but FEMA does offer flood insurance. Uh if you're interested, I did a quick just to see what my house would cost to get coverage and it was roughly about $125 a month. Um, and they have options. So,
you know, obviously everyone can't afford extra insurance, but as this weather starts to get crazier, we see see what happens in other parts of the county. It's I hate to see people lose their their stuff. So
last thing I wanted to mention was just reiterating on that Junth celebration >> that was sponsor that wasn't sponsored by the borrow that was sponsored by Delta Sigma Theta SAR Incorporated. >> Mrs. Thompson just happens to be a member of
>> Delta Sigma. >> Those ladies showed up. They showed out. They both great food. We had a great time. The senior really enjoyed it. So I appreciate you. Let me be a partner. That's all I have. >> Um,
good evening. Um, currently our administrative offices are operating under a summer hour schedule. The summer hours will be Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. So for those of you who are unable to get to us by 4, we
will now be open until 5:00 p.m. and that will end um on September 4th. So that'll be our last Friday um that we will be closed because the offices will be closed on Fridays and that includes the municipal building,
the police department administration building and municipal. The public works department and the library will maintain their regular hours of operation. First off, um I would like to apologize tonight. I am refusing to ever do that
again. I will never ever ever let these people let this get out of hand. I guess I'm just going to walk away from that. So I apologize on behalf of myself and
anybody else wishes to join. So thank you. At this time I'm going to open the meeting to the public. Anyone from the public, >> please state your name and address the record and sign in before you leave and keep 637th Avenue. Um, may I brought some of
this stuff up last month, but my concerns are inconsistent and unequal enforcement of the burrow codes and order concerns regarding transparency and the accountability within our burrow. You guys own several properties that are
in poor condition, including the issues such as overgrown grass and general lack of maintenance. And at the same time, residents are being cited for similar conditions on their own properties. The Barrow has obligations to lead by example and ensure that its own
properties are maintained to the same standards expected of residents. So, how can you have all those that are dilapitated and come after? I have people asking me to help them over the law gone because they were getting violations when yours are the same way.
Okay. So the residents have a right to expect that code enforcement is applied fairly, consistently and without regard to personal relationships, political affiliation or past positions held within the bar. When the enforcement of
care is selected, it damages public trust and creates the perception that some individuals are treated differently than others. And that feels good. Okay. And I'm also concerned about the surrounding of the awarding of burrow
contracts and the appearance of potential conflicts of interest. The fact that the four companies that received awards were also the sole source of political contributions with no other biders involved. raises concerns that deserve transparency and a
reg. The four people that contributed to Linda and Jerine are all sitting in here. Well, two of them are right now as the solicitor, the engineer, your insurance guy, and the engineer for the J. I got over it and there was no other
things there. Um, there's been a code violation on my doc the past 20 years that repeatedly just goes on. Nobody does anything to doubt. Um I have personally experienced interaction that I believe were intimidating and dismissed during council meetings here
prior to tonight with past council people and mayor. You would let it happen and you never got involved. Okay? So it does you should not let your council talk to the residents the way they do because we pay for you. The
way that Cheryl was just screaming at us was should not be. That should have never happened. So, I'm requesting that council take these concerns seriously and consider a full independent review of code enforcement practices, contract
work procedures, and any potential conflicts of interest. Transparency and equal treatment are essential to maintaining the public's confidence in our bureau's offering. You're up next. Um, >> I have a statement. Before statement,
I'd like to remind you that as a public, we have constitutional rights. We have a right to free speech. We have a right to redress our government. You guys are our government. As public officials, we have a right to record anything we can see
from public. We have a right to record our public officials in the course of our duties. It is case law. You discuss public business, public business, public officials in a public place. The public has a right to
record that. It is case fault. There's numerous case laws. One is Parks versus Pine Hill. I suggest you look it up. Second of all, I have a right as a citizen, as a member of the public to come to this public meeting to redress
my government whether I live here or not. I was firmly impacted this meeting because my woman hasn't seen me before. Is that a rule for me to come to a public meeting for you to know who I am?
I don't think so. >> I am not here tonight just to speak about the public. I'm here to speak about the responsibility of government and the rights of the public for democracy to work. Everyone has a role.
The public's role is to stay informed, attend meetings, ask questions, and exercise our constitutional right to petition our government when we believe a policy or action is not protecting the rights of the people. The role of elected officials is to represent the
public, protect our rights, and to ensure the policies you approve and enforce are legally sound and consistent with the principles of open government. The June meeting demonstrated why responsibility matters. The mayor
enforced a video recording policy that limits the public's ability to record meetings. That policy may have been created for an error, video tapes, and large recording equipment. But today, nearly every citizen carries a smartphone capable of
quietly recording without causing disruption. You can limit recordings based on disruption only. Sitting in a chair holding up a c a personal phone is not disrupting anything.
What concerns me most is that this was not an old forgotten policy sitting in a file cabinet. This policy was reviewed and approved by the governing body at the January reorganization meeting. The public expects elected officials to do
more than just resolutions. They expect you to read them, question them, and ensure the policies you approve protect the rights of the citizens you swore an oath that you serve and keep up hold their constitutional rights. When
announcing policy negatively impacts the public's ability to observe and document the actions of their government, it is responsibility for our elected officials to correct it. Tonight, the public is fulfilling its responsibility by bringing this issue to
rule. Now, we expect you to fill yours. We ask you to repeal this outdated video policy and ensure that the public's rights to transparency, accountability, and open public government is protected. And I remind you again
to uphold our constitution. Thank you. Anyone else? I don't have to >> answer you guys in office. I keep looking at the website to see how long you guys in office. So I just like to know how long you guys been in office.
You guys will only go back to 2017. So I know you were cancelled prior to that. So can I just ask you? >> I can only go right to 2017. So you want to check your website, sir? >> Yeah, I will. >> Okay. I can only go back to 2017 to
check meetings of the council meetings to see who was on the council. I've been on council since 1998. >> Exactly. You became mayor? >> I became mayor in 2013. >> Jackson,
what was it? Two years. >> 22. >> Since 22, >> thank you for being new and conservative. Appreciate it. >> I'm noter. >> How old have you been? I believe since
my daughter has been 2 or 3 years old, I used to bring her birthday. So, she's 25 years. >> Oh, I'm sorry. I don't know. It's been about 18 years. >> I've been over the last 20ome years, our family
has looked more shifted than it has in the last 40 years. It's not bad language. I'm not intimidating anybody. It's called treatment with speech again. So I just noticed over the last years our looking
crappier. Is that presentable for some sensitive people? That's fine. So it's looking a little crappier in certain areas and it's not the citizens fault. It's probably the fault. But anyway, you guys been here way too much. So this is what I'm concerned about. that attracted
me to my neighborhood in the way my streets have been for the last couple years. So, my name is Vincent. I live over and I'm here because I spent more than two years trying to get life addressed in my neighborhood. For over two years, I repeated ongoing violations
about trash. I found that numerous times complaints the matter would be addressed. Despite little changing action, I came through these meetings. I came back in April, didn't speak because
you guys wanted me to say who I was, even though I didn't have to. I came in May I spoke and then again in June I spoke expressing my concern to this government was the appropriate respectful way
shortly after speaking that meeting I received the notice regarding my trash my concern was not simply receiving that notice back in December 2025 but just to June this year I already
spoken directly with I was told they are aware of that and I believe the team appropriate for that. It was understood. unfortunate. Meanwhile, however, another homeowner on the street also
regarding prior to my property being pointed at this creative whether that was the intent or not concerns about fairness and equal treatment. I'm not asking people in fact I'm asking for the opposite. I want
every myself to be helped at every trash and many others. They should be enforced consistently and fairly throughout the neighborhood. My goal as always to help improve my communities
by the streets and having do their job. Residents should not have this many years the same problems without resorts. Nor should they feel could lead to increased squeege installing dumpsters
complex. On behalf of my neighbors, I respectfully opposed that proposal. I have collected potential with signatures from my neighbors. more than half our neighborhood expressing that we don't want
square. We want to preserve that character. So I have this petition here. I'll give it to you a copy of it. I don't know who wants to accept it. Amen. >> See you next >> to identify yourself.
>> Oh, absolutely not. you know, Nancy Kelly, my hands up there. All is good. Um, I do want to say that um, your policy, the first sentence, it says to prevent disruption of council meetings while respecting encouraging the right
to videotape. We're all carrying around. I actually wear a body camera just like the police officers. Um, I was the first person in here. So what are your procedure says number one on the procedure only one camera may be used at one time in any
one meeting the priority priority shall be based on first come first serve so would that be the first person walking in with a camera so that would be me I always wear out in public meeting >> I don't mean to interrupt you but if you read further down there it says you must
notify us at least 24 hours in advance that you're going to be filming and it also says that you have to set up the video within 24 hours so we can review it before you put it out there. >> And I appreciate the back and forth. I do appreciate that. I don't have that in
other town meetings. So, thank you. However, you did and you said let's start the meeting. Was that your meeting? >> What made you change your mind? I don't first of all
>> the chief >> will tell you that I don't like confrontation. I let people vote. I let people talk and I let people do what they need to do. I don't like competition. That's why I apologize again.
I'm not going to down or lower myself to any of these standards that are going on right now. So, I'm sorry. >> You are not bowing down. >> Oh, yes, I am. >> It's the first amendment. It was so important to our founding fathers. >> Okay, fine.

situation? >> You already recorded he's recorded they recorded are you going to pause my time since you want to interrupt me? Okay. Thank you. But I thank you for
starting um the meeting that up a >> deal start out with there's been a lot of recent activity there. Somebody was there and cut down the edges of the tree on tree work in
the back and two 50 yard dumpsters worth of debris out still people living in there and so I don't know whether they're paying
rent to the person tax. It appears that something's going on there. Is he a single people were there like a month ago? I haven't seen him in the last couple of days and it was difficult today, but
it's been sometimes two weeks where there all properties cleaned up kind of there's still a lot of stuff that should have been done and now the grass is getting to be the back.
Well, we got some of it started. So, the owner finally took property and took the property That was wonderful. Hopefully that's all. Obviously, this lawsuit was supposed to be settled
in 08. What brought it back up? It was settled in 2009. The administration at that time allowed judgement to be entered. It was settled with the people that sued the borrow but the lawyers involved at the time did not file a document forward
satisfaction. So because that document wasn't filed with the court that all these years later had the record. So we're hopeful that we soon
look forward to seeing some of these properties in the near future because they've been become an um this is going to be just my opinion but council only has council
know it's public record that you receive money from Mr. several other people that are employed by the although I know this is not illegal and I know that for illegal I find it in
my opinion on that >> pay to play >> pay to play >> I was not here >> I don't >> that's your opinion
I'm not here last to see what happened with Mr. P. But I find it disturbing that both him and Kathy Fitzpatrick
who got for seem to be being picked on after the election. They had the right to run reason to pick on them. They lost. That's what I don't understand. That's what I don't understand. It seems heavy.
I just don't understand why paperwork's there and show you all the houses with the grass that aren't citation >> including the one and all of a sudden
there people more than one have recorded before. Now all of a sudden it was an issue last meeting and now that phone it seems petty and addicted but it was your intention. I just want you to know the perceptions.
>> I want you to understand the perception. >> Thank you for me. Good night. I'm trying to figure out what's going on with the next door neighbor. I got a video here of maggots on my fence all
over my backyard from the same problem with concrete. The whole backyard is concrete and debris and crap is going into my yard video today. I would like for you guys to see this
and how I have this is something that I have been living with. All due respect, my wife, my children in this house when I made this complaint, when I made a complaint, the rest of these fells, every time I point the finger, there's three of them pointing back at me.
I fixed the camera. >> The camera was pointed at the wrong direction. It was brought to my attention. Within 24 hours, I reated the situation. I I had debris that was rolling off the driveway of my next door neighbor, same neighborhood. All the
stone after you guys appreciate you guys great job with the street all the stuff is in in the street. So I last year I made a complaint about it and they said I was in compliance because I didn't have a board the very same day I was in compliance. I sent the pictures in. So
why is not the same respect being done with my neighbor when I complained about this almost two years ago and other neighbor seven neighbors fought the same petition saw the same complaint. The bird crap is going. It smells like sewage outside and we have to live with this. I just want to know when is this
going to be resolved because this is way too long. >> Way too long. So I apologize. This is what >> I did follow up with you um about >> the camera is and I think I also said to you that if you're experiencing mites and things
like that because birds do carry certain things to call to help. >> I'm worried about the concrete. Just forget about the rest. bugs and and things like that. >> If there was dirt to wash it off and absorb it, it wouldn't be coming into my yard when they wash it. Right now, it's
all concrete. All their crap goes into my yard. It's all maggots all along my fence. Maggots along my door. I had a thousand magnets on my patio door because of their bird trap. Because they they
cleaned their concrete. What did the health department say when you called them? >> What the police department say about the health department? I didn't call the health. >> They'll take the birds out of here.
>> I want the concrete out of there. So when they watch the burn [ __ ] it goes into the ground. >> It shouldn't have to go in my yard. It should go into the ground. It should be absorbed by the ground, right? We brought before the bird.
>> The concrete is the whole yard. They're not supposed to have they come out, bring the birds out temporarily. Clean the cages out. You're not You're going to go there. So, we don't see birds. Go to business and the health department say they're allowed to have birds. Sure, they're allowed to have birds. They're
allowed to have dogs. But when they they had a dog, the dog crapped in the concrete. They grabbed a hose and hose it towards my yard because the concrete is clean now. And now the crap is in my yard instead of going into dirt. If they if they would do what they're supposed
to do, have dirt like the rest of us, half of their yard, when they clean it, the ground will absorb it naturally. But it doesn't. It's dirty and it smells. I can't even have barbecue in the backyard. And I'm not the only one that's complained about this. This is
over a year. Many neighbors have done it. I just want to know when is this going to be? That's all I'm asking. to let me know when is this concrete going to be installed because the neighbors I have pictures I have my backyard flooded when they clean when
their house cleaning next thing you know I got a swamp in my backyard because their yard is concrete email me the pictures okay the pictures I will take up tomorrow with you have pictures
>> they have pictures I know you're upset but can >> John has videos and picture. >> I guess not. >> I may I'll update you as to what was going on. We did have to do and I explained this to you when we first did it that that um impervious concrete
block came in at a certain point and it was for storm water runoff and things like that. We had to research to see whether or not there was a per even though you told me one thing. We had to research and see whether or not there was a permit pulled for it at one particular time. I told you the answer to that. We'll uh let you know the update and you can follow up with the
code tomorrow. And I also recommend it to you about calling the health department about the m at that point. We were talking about mics, not magnets. Everything >> right. >> It's just and it's on.
>> All right. Well, I do have part tonight. >> Thank you very much. >> Anyone else? We're just going to wait. You have your phone number. No, no answer. >> No. Anyone else in the public wishing to >> speak?
