>> Mr. Benjamin >> here, >> Gerald >> presum first on the agenda is public meeting. Good evening. I'm Tomenski. I'm one of the owners of South Street. I'd like to inquire about
the possibility of many workings that our open hours to try to get at least par with monkeys next door. Currently on Sundays we're allowed to be open from 12 to 6. There are 11 other dispensaries within 10
miles up here and they're all open later. So we're definitely business and grocery is open 11 to 11 Sundays open 12. Um, ideally, um, we would be
open 12 to 8. Um, I'd like to get it to, um, to do 11 possibility, but when Super Bowl comes, so we can start working a little bit later on. >> Tom, you mentioned it was an ordinance. Is this an ordinance
retail canvas? >> Yes. The um so the zoning ordinance it's section 94-32.1 specific for just Sunday or every day >> um ideally like every month but Sunday
Um what and I don't know off the top of my head what different uh variables are for different uses in our community when they're allowed to be open. Um here's just a specific case obviously but we
can we can look uh and see we can look at our code um that's something um so we'll take a look at it and then see uh so we'll get I guess
you know, business openings and to see whether we can do something. >> Okay. >> We're looking at a retail facility. Retail is typically >> that I remember. No more retail, >> right?
>> I think it was also I think it was set up. >> Yeah, I think that's okay. We'll take a look at Mr.
Mr. Mark West. Um, I want to thank uh many of you that I spoke to concerning the issues next door to our house and I understand there's a resolution dealing with boarding rooms and stuff like that tonight. Hopefully something will get passed. Um, but I speak I want to speak
on a a greater that when these issues were happening over the winter time, uh, council was very respectful. Sean and I have had numerous conversations. I talked to Andrew. I spoke to you when I had an issue with tree, right? You reached out to me almost immediately. The council's been very responsive. um
downstairs has not been responsible and we were told when this all happened to please send emails uh license plates you know all the things that were happening next door we were told to send stuff and we requested a response yes we've received it thank you very no email was
ever sent back to us um what we call police they come out they explain the police were great um fast forward to some news that I heard today um I joined the board of ed years ago And one of the things that I really wanted to get done
uh while I was on the was a full-time summer camp. Uh we had a working community, many families of two parents and I really think our community would have all served with this and we had conversations with our previous CSA and
uh there were some roadblocks and uh Andrew and I went and had a beer and discuss some of these issues. But with new administration, it seems like something was put out there and survey was sound. I will say I don't know how many of you have parents in the virtual system but when a survey is sent on
Friday in the past it's got maybe eight to 10 responses for the one concerning a full day there were seven responses so it was overwhelming so when I followed up and I I didn't know at the time how I reached out CSA president and I said hey
can I promote this on and they said well hold on seems like council might be doing parks parks excuse parks and playground again, but it doesn't seem like it was the council that came up with it and was downstairs. So, I'm wondering about the communication aspect
who is running downstairs um because there is a definite need for this. There has been an outreach with parents in this and you know my personal uh dealings with next door I would love
it just seems like there would be better communication with downstairs. So I don't know what the plan is with full day summer camp moving forward. Uh but I do hope that it is discussed and uh we do implement. Um
that's it. Thank you. >> Yeah. See close portion of the meeting public hearing on 2603 follow anyone that ordinance please state name
addressing see public hearing on ordinance 263 ordinance trash truck and we Move to the next agenda. I have a motion first. Second on that one. Any discussion on
your >> Mr. Benjamin? >> Yes. >> Mr. Fitzgerald. >> Hi. >> Mr. Po. >> Yes. >> Yes. Mr. >> Yes. >> Thank you very much. Um, next item of the agenda. is
record as long as I can remember but take great and our community and so please get out there and remind All right. Approval of amendments. >> All right. First, we have March 9th. Uh,
Mr. Benj second. Benjamin all in favorions. Next I have March 23rd Mr. Benjamin Mr. Mr. Mr. Woods in favor.
Thank you very much. Engineers report. >> Good evening. Thank council. So we are working on finalizing for some phases too for the survey for phase three
working to complete the design get approval. We did get from regarding scheduling the construction to a possible events but I think we'll be able to successfully
Tub were successfully able to get out of the account. We're currently working to get document submitted. We completed a site walk through designer. We have vendors and selections
to have the design with electricers for purchasing. you send around here. This is just the basis of design. Yes, >> I just want to make sure
>> we know what not to use. How far down? >> This is just another private chance that we can adventure. not disturbing anyone. >> That's right.
>> My favorite part of the area down you guys. Um, okay. The one street that I that I know we have any issue with kind of playing the fire a little bit. It's
focus there with tree roots coming through. What are we doing? What can we do there? Is that on any lists for replacement because that's you know pretty soon you will have speed home there in an error.
>> Yeah, we have we have looked at notes. It's something project alternate side. I mean it looks like it's what curve curve maybe not even from the intersection >> if you can look into that because I I
mean I'm certain that it's not getting Well, further down further down that street is I feel like I'm reliving this grand water since those two properties were you know redeveloped there's
a lot on the street issue in the winter and So, you know, going back to your first item, the Somerset project, the intersection,
is are we are we repaving that area? >> We're going to go as far as not. I'm wondering because the same place there would make sense to do what we did over there. >> Yeah,
>> I think that's right. underach engineer um express our concerns with when this development comes online cut through traffic on their account they're
I'm concerned both about Uh the the intersection with the circle right there was that Syria play um that's going to be I think
that's and I'm not sure what the traffic is for that project but if you're dumping people onto Clayton come into I'm just saying that you're dumping Yeah, it should be just a little county
approved for this that site. Uh and then also express our concerns about traffic on that county road, 25 mph road. Um, and people are going
there, but it's going to be lots. Uh, that's how many units 400, you know, It's already I don't know how they're changing the life cycle for Chapel and
I'm an engineer. Yeah, the office. All right. Thank you. Any other questions? Thank you very much. This is achievement zero.
Thank you to all of our department heads for their work uh on that report. >> Thank your honor. Couple updates from Shane Tree. Uh we were once again
designated as a Tree City USA uh for our 48th year running. Uh and this past uh weekend, as you alluded to, we planted another round of new trees. I think it
was 22 in total this time around. Was that or was that for the bird to the >> Okay. Yeah. So it was somewhere in that But we we confirmed with homeowners. Um we're planning out front of the house
that they were uh okay with planning there and that they will uh continue to take care of the trees that were plant. And we also did a walk through with DW in the locations
to make sure that they were chry. So, we were covered all our bases, but we have a bunch of new trees in and hopefully uh they they let us and for green team uh they will be
meeting this Thursday 7 p.m. at that. Happy to answer any questions. >> That seems like the most aggressive schedule. Oh, this is other than the tiny farms where we planted over 100 trees. Um yes
this is the most we a lot of troulesomeries over the past few years but now it's time to start filling in our time again any questions Mr. All right. Thank you, your honor.
Today, starting with the courts for March, there's no virtual session, $6,925 turned over April, $294 cases added and 27.
Uh, diversity committee is meeting April 23rd and thank you very much. questions for Mr. All right, Mr. Zero. Thank you, your honor. Um, start with the board event. The last meeting was held on March 24th.
Um, primarily dealing with the budget discussions currently looking at potential for 6% as the current increase in order to maintain current staff programming. Um, the next meeting is set for April 28th. Still set for April 28th. It wasn't June. Sorry. Thanks,
Mark. Um uh to kind of piggy back a little bit on their target, I mentioned that we we had officially started a discussion regarding some type of uh joining of the summer programs uh with the school. Um a survey was sent out. At
some point, communication broke down um with uh some of the staff here and email was sent out stating that we were no longer going to continue down that path. I would still like to continue uh or at least having discussions with the school. It's not going to work this year. I understand we're getting closer
to the deadline for sign up. The camp registration start on April 28th, but um seeing Mr. P was uh nice enough to send over some of the the survey data that they received, there seemed to be a good amount of interest in in the concept of a joint program. I think it's something
that we should still pursue in discussions for potentially next year or going forward. So that's where we currently stand there. Um, board of health had a meeting scheduled for last week that was pushed back. Um, DPW, we did uh that actually reached out to the
water commission to do a spot on the water fountain ofwood park. Um, it might be past its its uh lifespan at this point. Um, one of the things that because of the being the 100th anniversary water commission um in the past we've donated um water balance
along the bike hat. um some initial discussion taking place with that committee about potentially maybe donating another one in place of that one that's kind of reached >> the next one. Yeah.
>> Yeah. redone. Yeah, >> it's not at this point. It's not as good as the ones on the network 10 years they were 90th anniversary. Um, this one is a little bit older. The parts in it are getting harder to come by and at this
point it's probably reachable. >> It really was. I know. Um and and just piggybacking on that, I've received a couple phone calls. I found some um they're not turned on until uh late April, early May. Typically, they're off. I haven't gotten callers about
that. Um but they're both in working order. That's all we'll be back on April. Um other than that, that's all I have for I don't have any questions. I I I want to comment and then go a little louder
and put somebody on the spot. Um but I mean I I believe because of the size of our community that we should probably work towards a joint solution at this point between the programs that the school has put on traditionally
uh and our parks pro playgrounds program. Um I know that there are number of hurdles that are present but aside miscommunication there are hurdles
um I don't know from a time perspective that it could get done this this year and putting car showed up to council on the spot you've been adding to this do you feel like this is these hurdles that are in
place that we know are in place and being able to actually put a program together that works safe from transporting kids potentially to bargaining back. There's all types of issues that I've heard. Is that something that you think and I know Mr.
P is is somebody who is very, you know, willing to do whatever he can. >> So, do you think that the timing is >> I will I will say I don't know all the issues. Mr. has been hands-on with this and whoever's been the point person for
council has been on this. Um I when he first joined I had pressed him and said this is something I'm interested in. First mentioned it to the board out last week. >> I hadn't heard about it before. So I don't know um we wanted to explore this.
>> Okay. Just based on our prior conversation over the years in my conversation with Vince tonight he said it was a six-month conversation. So I don't know how far along all these firms have been considered or so the the initial point when when mayor and I
first reached out to him it was prior to the start of the holiday season and obviously with being wanted to get under a little bit this was he asked for a little bit of a delay unfortunately I think the delay kind of played into but getting into that time crunch for April
now some kind of agreement with that I don't know if it's feasible I don't believe it's feasible for this summer uh to go with it. But I think that we we have a good groundwork now late with surveys that you had mentioned. We have the line of
communication. We have I think the the desire on both ends where maybe it wasn't there before. Um so I still think that it's a viable chase through the the remainder of this year going into next summer. Yeah, I I mean I don't I don't think
it's peaceful this year and we're already at a point where there's a lot of planning needs to go forward, but I 100% agree that we need to consider what our options are next year. I think we need to start meeting sooner rather than later. Doesn't have to be this month, >> but maybe ahead of next school year,
start having conversations. I mean, there are certainly barriers about time of day, staffing, uh transportation, as you alluded to. Um but I think we need to get everybody on board iron out those problems and I mean maybe it's not
feasible but we certainly need to bring together just to be smart government and smart government providing services for reasonable value. So that's how I So I think we should converation just
put the uh the pressure of trying to get something done for this summer off and say hey let's put a real plan together see okay anything else uh Mr.
Thank you. Very quickly, you know, our relationships are um definitely seeing more so far this year. Always nice. um minor mechanical
minor issues. Uh other than that we have five all our trainings prior prevention 84 completed 39 inspections 26
enforcement 87 complaints this year. Uh open place 97 right now 188 total years 135 initial inspections 10 inspections eight turnover houses
and rental inspections 49 year I I I recognize Russian. >> Yes, I understand that. And I I appreciate our public works their efforts to go above,
but I think we really need to stay true to what side of town the other side because there's so much that we're trying to accomplish. Uh, and I I love Kevin dearly and I know he's trying to do
>> some door hangers. >> Yeah, the schedule's new. >> Yeah, >> I just I want >> I noticed everyone has disregarded any West. They were all one one merchant
>> and then it was Monday that really >> was like >> Yeah. social media because I saw some outbody that they have to come to the window. >> If you want a few, I've been giving them
out to people on the street, too. Um what about >> but not just for the business but I mean >> they might Sure. We know who we know who's coming in from the budget. I know I know trash but nonetheless
we have trash you know trash that works falling apart. Yeah. Um, any other questions? >> You say 531 service,
you know, pick a bunch of people All right. Thank you very much. Yeah. Well, actually it just a fine to a lean judge is right now, >> right? Because right now basically
fine ass. Uh that said a couple of things with the budget. So we are looking at the budget next year property tax increase. Uh this does exhaust the entire cap that we have available for all four previous
years at this point. Um we are also utilizing $300,000 of our surplus $200,000 surplus for next year. So there's a couple of things that we did. Overall the budget did reduce wall
6.5 this year 6.27600 276 it's a decrease about $24,000 some of that federal grant dollars approximately $200 otherwise we actually reduce the budget by 100 grand I'm
saying all this because we don't have a cap next year to pull from and the revenue we can raise is only the state tax with a pulling into our reserves of 300,000 we will need to make additional cuts
And I think some very difficult decisions and start to really think about what those decisions look like raise costs. Um that also said there are a number of things that we are doing to try to
protect those numbers for next year so we don't have to make as drastic uh including selling you know some assets within the bureau that we replenish the surplus uh we're making some uh cuts throughout the bureau
long term this much year next year the other big thing we did this year we actually like bonded our temporary bonding It's a permanent market. We were holding off for a while there, paying a variable rate on that. Uh but it was getting to the point where we basically had to pay down the principle of that
large clumps. So we're going to bond that out. 13 bond rate on that uh 13ear payoff. So that lowered the number, but as a told them, we're not going to bond any new temporary bonding next year for property director. So I need to make
sure you communicate that to all parties because we're I have we have three more years and then the next major hitting our budget at $400,000 a year annually drops off. That will then free up the ability for us to start bonding again
three years. So any capital requests don't hold it unless it's absolutely absolute critical you know everything else has to kind of like just sit you know on the way side just
so that's it we talked about this we had a lot of deferred maintenance deferred maintenance for years Yeah, many years >> interest one of the things I didn't mention was that we also lost revenue $628,000
of taxable property that came off the rolls this past year you know that impacts the the the um you know that that's you know that's people who like acquired property then become nonprofit property tax we can do about
Having sat on council for the past, you know, 15 years or so, I can tell you the other things actually hit the budget which has crushed us is we've lost our contract. We used to get paid by utility companies for what they for the bell towel building that that was a tax
assess against that. We used to get almost $800,000 a year in contract. What happened was the state of New Jersey said, "No, we're going to take that back and we're going to redistribute to all the towns fairly as we see fit." Well, we didn't get it back. So, so what was a
a windfall to our small town because we had all these assets sitting in our town now suddenly went away. So, there are a number of taxes like that. I look back I think we've done a fairly decent job of trying to hold the line but
you know without any additional state aid without you know the numbers cost being pulled out it's real fast so uh we're really just down to salary and if you really want to break it down our salaries
the nearby communities are lower than nearby communities so I can't even you know our public works paid almost $5 an hour less in Penn than Cherry Hill, you know. So I can't reduce their salaries their salary.
Uh so that's kind of where I'm where I'm at. So I just want I just want people to understand this is not an easy budget year and what really killed this interest rates. a lot of temporary temporary bonds sitting there
finance it drop back down obviously now at this point because of what's happening overseas I want to catch up on the other issues that we
trash collection contract >> oh yeah thank you trash went up this year for $300,000 went up 66% in healthare that contract for the trust for track is another five year. So, so the good news
is favorite brand it will kind of stay you know consistent over the next couple years and so I mean but we have to now think okay goes up >> right >> seven years ago eight years ago when I
was sitting in the budget when we had trash collection we actually had two numbers one was a number for the disposal hall that paid $100,000. The other one was for our recycling where we actually collected a couple hundred thousand for the recycling. So it actually made sense for people
recycling. Now the recycling I pay to dispose of the recycling because much I dispose pay of the uh trash >> and then contamination happens. No >> then we pay extra for contamination. So whenever someone puts mixed uh
recycling, you know recycling, we actually pay extra for that. So it's a Yeah. So it's a so that >> Yeah. So that's been like these are just like some structural things like looking at
land tax and quite frankly uh after the division of um uh the state attorney general's office did the revisions in the court. Our court revenue has dropped almost by half. So we're down almost
because not necessarily because uh it's just because people aren't paying fines that the fines are no longer about enforced by uh bench. So people just don't show up which is the reason why I was saying because I can't put it against someone's property people just
don't show up. So, and it's not the everyday person who's the good citizen that's, you know, okay, these are people who are used to just they have a long list of outstanding balances overse They know how to play again.
So not the challenges of this year's budget which I thought in this year's budget I we were cutting contract the issue with trash cont $70,000 increase in salary. Okay. On that
budget, so I got to $70,000. Okay. Um the debt service, we do wipe out some debt service about that. And to the extent that we've made other structural changes that may also help offset that 67,000, but we are still down a number
of positions that we have not filled. The question is, will we be able to fill that? I don't know. I I just don't know the answer. I'm not saying we can't. I don't know. I I'm not saying
I'm just letting you know. That's why I'm just putting it out there. shocked or surprised as we go through the next year and really explore things like ambulance service and you know I think there's ways to be creative that might yeah still have the same services that
just might be paying somebody different right then that's kind of what we're thinking about is like you know we're gonna have to we can't be criticized for taking a hard look at everything and I think that's real really where we start Everything's on the table and
we're all >> and these are something very clear. We share this almost every service and fire and by the way >> so we can't share the two towns on both sides of this are
paid. So they're not volunteer services. No longer we have to go to a paid service. You're adding another million dollar but easily easily cover a paid fire service. I don't know you know can charge us $70,000 for ambulance service
you know and you know we gave up being a volunteer service figure out. Sorry. >> I'm trying to sell money. So, I mean, and part of it is that we can get some property back
use, you know, quite frankly, pilots actually help us out better from revenue standpoint. We can get something to pilot uh, you know, as a as a development property. properties total use again everything
good segment >> yes uh they have secured it they have started supposedly the demolition they are the plan for Kevin to submit we actually have them against the time so and
additional action to happen shortly we're able to move forward so that is that is one that's we told them that we're not holding up that's why we saw the fence go up that's why posted that's why so all that happened after that
>> and then the snow So like but now we're at a point where you Okay. Uh thank you very much. >> Thank you your honor. I just wanted to remind everyone that financial disclosure forms are due
by the end of the month. So we'll say next week. do have another meeting where I remind the bus >> few of the events just a reminder market center this month is the first month for market center but they changed it to May
I'm sorry for May for May 15th um rather Then May 1st um that will be I'm that will be the first market. Okay, first market May 15th they may change so
that all the others will be the first Friday and then there's the art wall coming up that everybody can attend and if you can volunteer please let Rebecca know she's and I know um she's working with the business association for locations.
I'm sorry. >> Our focus may >> and then uh the community center project is on the agenda this evening. Uh that is the exterior repairs and painting of
the building. The long awaited project. So that should be starting uh sometime by the end of the month. and they're telling me it will be maybe less than two months. So looking forward to that. That's all that I have.
>> Okay. Thank you very much. Any questions for the clerk? Hearing none. Community development report at 2 p.m. center. Uh we have four new businesses in uh one resin. Uh the ribbon coming
Wednesday at 5:30. Um hopefully I don't get anything where I was in high school Jordan anyway but um uh restaurant 1793 is open
strikes my go there might be >> I Okay. Can you say tomorrow? >> Tomorrow. >> Um, okay. That's it.
Uh, next on the agenda is CFO report that already business. We have our short. >> Yep. Thank you, honor. for discussion very much
feedback to kind of give that quick history. We do have a rental registration requirement chapter 66. Um it did not apply to this one difference. um if the resident changes do another
inspection and obviously the short-term rentals operate very time. So you know every single day another inspection. So we looked at this, we looked at uh looking across the state.
We also looked at the state scene. We looked at the fact that we have 50th anniversary of the country coming up that you have games. You have World Cup, you have PJ Championship in a couple weeks. We have a lot and has been
to a much larger metric area. This is something that's really increase for the opportunity for it. You know, we think back and I really do think back when um I guess it was only a couple of us on council when we had what 60 plus
foreclosed homes, what that meant for the town that means for property values, how that deal, and it really creates a burden and trying to balance the someone that's an individual, maybe someone that has a mortgage, maybe someone los
based on affordability to use their house, use their assets, reasonably responsibly to allow some sort of presence allow an opportunity that says you know I'm willing to rent my house for a week I have someone to do this I want to do that sort of a
short-term res you must be a res properties this is not for LLC's this is not for investor owns uh organizations to come in property values make it much more unaffordable for people to live in their
homes. Make it so prevented commercial. This would be you have to demonstrate proof that you live in a home that you're invested in merchand this would be minimum two days not 167 days not 16 seven days in a So we're talking less than 25% that you could
actually do this. We increase the noise or this. So noise ordinance would be extended in the morning at night. This is meant to be for mindful neighbors. Um you must register, must be inspected, must have fire, must have must have
insurance. Must be logs, must disclose in your online registration that you are registered. Um code enforcement to come in there and inspect your logs and make sure Um, what I try to do is balance individual
rights to someone's home and you know the home is your castle that we're not restricting those people's rights will also balance while balancing neighbors that might you know if there's complaints for something else that gives them recourse to come to code enforcement to say this has become a
problem. So that's the one the next one is less we talk about revenues looking for opportunities this that the legisle to pass the building for ours to actually inst So one question says this is this
doesn't apply to processes by state that Is there a state? >> Yes. Yeah. That force that's full commercial property. That means if you want to go beyond seven days, if you want to do
rent it out full time more than seven days a month. Yeah. only because if I'm like 250 coming this year or this year I'm think I'm wondering
like you could do, you know, >> yeah, I'm saying we still have max. >> Yeah, we could do 14 days. Your maxal for the year would be >> whatever.
We could >> and that's but I was I was going I mean I making a longer operation if you >> Yeah.
Um the other thing so I know we collecting 100% tax but the application annual application $75 we're for registration because we're considering% that knowing that we don't have to hire
anyone additional it's less work for that purposes to proist I thought The inspection is also but the person the person that's doing the rentals would be the same person that's conducting fees
>> but we can't >> that so we're collecting 3% but we are keeping the annual fee at half the cost of Yes. Okay. All right. And this is in line with some TCA
drivers that put out this balance. There is one part here that just to clarify that when they actually post it online that they have their registration call.
It's very clear. You can't advertise something without demonstrating that you do have >> is the fines or violations consistent with the fines if there was a violation of >> if you don't you don't receive the
registration so If there's a if there's a violation after they apply then it's a then it goes to the usual court violation minimum
plus the potential under CS under article 7 violation immediate revocation short-term Can I ask you a question here? >> I'm really sorry. Uh one of the things we were concerned about um at the point we had five adult
mening beds that >> with the registry what what's we we have 12 daughter we worried what if one of these people on registry is there anything in this you can't >> okay
but this this ordinance would two people >> so well husband and wife so there could have been Well, they have a whole lot of rooms that they have, you know, sorry,
>> but there's other issues going back to your lab, you have you have to disclose. >> Okay. >> So, there's other >> there's other Okay. >> But you can't deny us. >> Gotcha. Thank you. move forward
to that discuss I believe introduce 141. And remember to see if they're disclos most like
this is a inspected permanent more version Tell me which >> that's adding article chapter 77 >> chapter 77. >> Yes6. >> Okay. So
>> taxation. >> Okay. Article five, chapter 77. >> Okay. And then I'll read >> and then part of this discussion out
that's separate. That's going to be the conditional lease and making sure that anything beyond this which is required anyway per you have to go for grants if you wanted to do 15 days or four or anything like that. I would like to look
at how do we regulate those and make a very strict and streamlined you know about trash collection associated nonvem >> it is
But having sort of structure just stay on Uh next is discussion fair housing. So I think we're ready to get this the model models
the model we're housing like everybody has it has been there modifications made for the purpose of town the accessory Right. Make sure
that's not current. >> Okay. So I just wonder if that discussion right there's there's a lot I Think about this. I say this contribution, Not necessarily.
