this meeting is being held competition social channel. I ask for those you joining us here in person this evening silent speak outside please Benjamin
here Mr. Mclin yes Mr. Mr. Mr. Thank you very much. First item of the agenda this evening public meeting and public
speak on any topic please come forward state your name and address. I just wanted to voice my concern about the Hampton Road development. I'm sure you've all seen that. North Cherry Hill, but I I'm sure you all anticipate
change to traffic town. And um I'm particularly uh worried about the place. There's no fure kids I know on that street. There's 16 kids on that street. And uh I'm hoping that you're planning
some kind of traffic uh control or monitoring. I know road I also know that you have the relationship campaign officials. I have procured plans if you don't have them in the industry
access to them. There's 250 units at least on the course. So, I just hope that you'll uh do some proactive planning about that. That's already a runway and everybody was on it. It's already a runway. Um just worry that
it's been much more such cut through to Yeah, I agree. Both there's some positives for us when I think about small businesses that people close by. Uh but we we're certainly aware of that.
Um and tightening up um they're going to be any sort of tables or speeds or anything along those lines. So I I don't know exactly what it may
have stop signs signal etc. I think probably some is Um, so we're going to continue else public meeting
from July 14th, 2025 meeting. Everyone here second discussion all in favor. Thank you very much. council.
Uh so went through last week, submitted final documents for draft final documents for summer phase one with all the adjustments deductions to try and get us to the close. Um I think you can look at the
numbers. We're still looking the grand amount. Um typically when the construction that uh when the bids come in under the grand usually extend quantities to get to that amount we did not do that. So we did have a little bit
to do that. So there was some adjustments we think about that were justified but we did subtract so that yeah and the reason why we didn't
additional responsive they could do contract Okay. Um so we're phase two documents have been resitted as of Friday as the DAS want to do formatting contract. So
took a little bit of extra work as opposed to format. We did that. We expect to get approval within the next couple of days. This section phase two will be less impactful to the community center. Um, one item that he's and I have
discussed in the cabin is a removal of a tree that the burrow is going to take before we just across the street from Okay. Um I would just uh work make sure you work with that
construction but I would imagine something there right but I don't uh Is that the residential property at the corner of it's more on
previously anyway just wasn't meant for that we could try it but it's not so It's not it's not a right.
That too. Just saying. Not aware of that. Okay. But it's big. Other than that, we will continue work with the the borrow CPF grant progress on that.
Okay. Um I had uh an occasion to have engineer out here on Thursday last week. We discussed some street stuff uh including some I spoke with about some safety concerns things working on. I'd
like to have him take a look at so he's going to look into that. Uh, I also talked to you about taking a foot or two of our right away on this side property side to bump so
that it creates a little bit space amount of clippings that we have mirrors which occurs pretty regularly on center street right in this area. He wasn't as bullish on that but he said he could take a look at it some options. He said
he wanted well if you're taking two there are businesses this is our government building you know we don't need streets they may so um yeah but
other questions here thank Looks like it's dirty. I changed it. Okay. Next agenda corresponds. response. Okay.
Thank you, your honor. Just a quick update from the last time we were here. I talked about the fact that we need to update our street management plan. By the end of year, we're looking at going in for
some grant funding. Uh the initial quote that we had was more than the grant amount, but luckily we were able to find another vendor that's willing to do it for uh $5,000 the total grant amount. Uh
we do have a uh we pay share share of that 1250 our contribution, but we make that out of volunteer hours. I anticipate it's not nothing's coming out of budget. Um, we've already submitted the grant application already.
Uh, I imagine it's going to be full now, but we haven't gotten the final details on it yet, but it should be in full. Do we need to uh approve a contract with that?
Yeah. How long is it going to take? this project by the end of they didn't give us any sense of urgency in the past. They said that they had we
probably more like a month. Um but I'll we this Thursday I'll see contract and when you get the grant as well you need to give us the letter so we can
bring the question. Thank you. Our report for July, two virtual sessions, one person, 237 cases added, 23, $6,67
turned over the next meeting, August 19th, they will be planning for courage, which is next month, and supporting the fall. That's all.
Thank you very much. Questions, Mr. Fire Hill. That's the first time I ever saw that exceptional code inspection issue
purpose issue last violation violations violations. right now. Sorry. And rental 32 resale pretty strong. Yes. Okay. Thank you very much. Questions?
Thank you, your honor. Police Department for the month of July were involved in 1,626 incidents does include 156 officer initiating interactions members.
Personal police department conducted 28 traffic stops. There were 80. There were 14 arrests and two Wrestling Parks and playgrounds program by having officers serve the uh building with Mr.
program. They also continue to conduct strategic traffic enforcement again returning chest at the center construction. They conducted 153 controls observed 10 violations. Uh
there were six issued and seven warrants. uh officers to proactive at this month of August. Also July
selective enforcement of the one staff center to address complaints of improper 25. Last but not least, officer Marcado joined department at May has successive
skill training and ship and full-fledged member of department. Sure. There's I had a discussion with Chief Graia um earlier this morning uh
referencing a couple of different amongst other communities in um the right words here having better ability to uh say force uh
juveniles but um manage the issue manage issue. I I so I think again it's a wellknown concern of police that it's a bit challenging the state of New Jersey if we look at our particular ordinances here
with the exception of curfew we're kind of like addressing anything on again handling issues that involve juveniles but there's been a couple recent uh recent
ordinances and chief reached out to us about coming up or put our department in a better position to manage issues.
Yeah, the attorney general guidelines very diffult police police throughout the state management issues. Um, and while I wouldn't say that I'm necessarily
against some of the attorney general guidelines, policies behind it, I think that it has um, you know, really not allowed our officers to enforce certainly nuisance actions by
repeated nuisance actions I should say by juveniles within jail. essentially says you can take their approximate age uh and some other demographic that's it and
give them a go. Um we have had a number of instance throughout the past few years bicycles electric bikes ever town etc. Uh we had a recent incident last
week that that um I would say that I don't want to speak specifically that in other just like that uh and what you are seeing what I have seen over time
just way to defend their interests or whatever. Um and so this isn't just here. Uh there are other incidents that more well known township day last year
in concern. So uh the recent development or what I think communities are trying to do city um some other is implement
um a parental responsibility portion to their code uh for instances of repeated violations. The ordinance is specific offenses against publication
prosecuting prosec um what we're dealing with person issues and frankly uh I think you you know, I I'm supportive putting something like this in place.
Um, we need to be able to provide some sort of um people out. So, um, we have that we're asking council to
sustain. Um, there will probably be a lot of contracts and processes and concerns with here and I encourage council to take this. Um, we're not trying to rush this through. We just
want to get it out there and introduced this evening. I'm going to ask to do that later in this meeting. Uh I think ultimately our timeline is there are going to be substantial revisions to this. I would like to have this in place
prior to Halloween. Uh which is a period of time when you know we know that be able to provide our officers with as many tools as pos possible to keep our community safe. Um and as much as we
love monster do uh past few years um as curfew and as Halloween is is coming to an end. We've had multiple incidents that have luckily not become significant. Um so I'd like to be able
to have something in place to hold somebody account. So, I'll pass this around council questions. What do we What does this means? I mean there can't pass
in that. So I understand some of the baseline organiz all I'm trying to do at this point is provide something large because you want to get into the specific legal aspect
but deal with non-stop historically person nuisance issues that we've had in this community for at least the last four years. I'm just that's that's the intent and I think this is consistent also with what other communities are trying to do
at least with an opportunity to bring somebody that's so so guidance but I mean we're not able the police aren't able to ask the kids names I mean how are they going to know their
guardian is or their parent. I I would assume that based upon what's in this ordinance they would have repeated violent have to come get there.
I I believe that the intent is for this but I I'm not I didn't look at the ordinance I got this morning and I think Mr. Higgins has worked with the chief on it today. Yeah. This is based off the state law
that was passed like a month ago. I'm not sure. Yeah. And and it's also based off basically based off other communities wester the main pro of that his legislation was for like
that's what I was going to say back There's there's a little bit of a can't ask a juvenile for your name of that sort. They can if it's in concept that's wrong. Yeah. So I just want to make sure and
that's that's so I I have no doubt. I also know that the guidance that that our police get and the chief gets is that they can't so much as bring children, young people below 18 in this
unless they're doing something serious. at the prosecutor's office. So my statement was the other day that what if I told you to do something and he said prosecutor's office would come in the attorney general would come down to every single person involved
an internal affair against them. That was the statement. Now how much of that is hearsay? How much that I I don't know but that's clearly what they're being told by at a chief's level and maybe at a higher level. I I you know
what if we had no one's place that is common to what the trials this is only again rental this is to bring the parents in can't charge kids for these things this is to bring this
is to basically try and change somebody this wouldn't be contrary to because you're dealing with adults I can tell you had after the incident they have they enacted a similar
ordinance and um I prosecuted a number of people $2,000 that's not That's all the penalties in there. The penalty ordinance is not
specifically expressly provided for there's a penalty ordinance which weap We have previously 90 days to 90 days and just anything
that list is not is not exclusive. That's it. I just right. You'll be done. So for officers, I'm just saying that for these. So I understand
that whole concept that makes sense. I don't I don't know the procedure. Don't actually do a lot of teeth and just say
we need to make sure is is greater than Remember this is just an amendment right pass right now. This would include the person our ordinance that says hey that could be charged personally the state
saying you can't charge personally but I guess that's my that's my that's the one that's they went back and did that but you can't unless you have reasonable
the street riding down traffic. But that's my point. So, you know, under 18, but to have the juvenile charge or whatever it is, like that's going to be
the parent responsible for that. I think that makes parents one of whom I am sure. But knowing that like trouble with this Yeah. Look, I I'm not I I'm personally
frustrated and I speak with the chief director about this issue and what we usually that's it is and they engage but So the case in point is we have this issue.
Okay. And this issue results in people who are able to be uh they're able to be charged in some way, shape or form, but they're not talking right. They won't talk. They won't die after the
kids that were there caused this problem. they create there was there was damage to somebody's property as a result of this um they're not talking we can't really get information whatever I think that this would provide
us the opportunity for one kid we do have possible we can we can certainly get his parents and sure they can write charges and bring his parents and and I mean I don't know about that specific circumstance but what I'm saying to you is There are
opportunities I think and I'd like to provide them as many opportunities because I I'm frustr church road and there was five young folks who just just cut I mean just cut right in front of traffic
coming going church towards cherry just cut in front we could have gotten hit didn't care for basically you know traffic but it's a nuisance issue and one that I think bigger is not those
traffic which are very but it's the issues when we have events in center of our community and if something were to happen monster we had that incident the last two years after
I would want something about this So that's our biggest is there something else. They're also the only thing that here
should talk is a similar similar well they don't first off there's guideline chase but um I know that some communities are employing drone technology follow
outside of their jurisdictions to the point where they stop and then trying to, you know, and get something, you know, hold somebody. That's dangerous.
People were talking and that's not as likely as dangerous, but that's that's dangerous. There's a lot of other things. I mean my biggest concern is kids who don't have driver's licenses that are their vehicle but they're on the street or on the sidewalk
and electric bikes are very frustrated speakers they're unregulated I can't there's only one way to track So he looked to the left and when he went back to go to the right, somebody
was coming in the opposite direction on one of those electric bikes and he had he was I mean not prosecuted. He wasn't found. They were driving in one direction but like there's no rules and there's
there's really New Jersey. There was there was one like, "Oh, man. I think right that's the issue roads are for cars for transports
the city Mr. was here for the meeting and brought that specific issue up. Um, but we could go ahead juvenile, one of them, two of them were electric bikes, was on
and he was walking basically whatever. Um, and he was asking about that some we have we have worked in in join with the last few years there's definitely presence utilize all resources we have
etc but crowd control as a whole I know joint task force for all that respons Okay. All right. That's not the chief. Mr. H brought that
up. that that is apparently fat. Uh and so I you know you want to get ahead of that issue and people were having parties where they were charging tickets. I don't think so. Yes. Yeah.
This is not too people probably join us. talking about people are renting their pools having popup pool parties selling tickets. It's coming. You know, like social media boom.
It does not happen. I mean, no problem. Uh that's really responsive to some of the have your own part in your own yard. So we
adoption what did you cover this? I didn't know. So we had the exorters a clean this evening. And then finally, we have this one. We are down to 16.
