folks just want to remind everybody that all Council meetings will be audio and videotaped they'll be shown in the township of otions community cable channel channel 22 on Verizon fos and channel 77 on cable on uh cable vision can I have a roll call please mayor neany here Deputy Mayor fiser here
council member Cher here Kine here and Weinstein here the notice requirements to the public meetings act for this meeting have been satisfied and a copy of the annual notice was sent to the Asbury Park Press and the coaster posted in town hall and filed in the office of the municipal clerk on January 3rd
2025 first up we have our Township engineer with our project update Greg I'll turn it over to you okay good evening everybody uh first thing 2023 that's on hold till the temp's break we got like five roads left to do so that'll probably be starting up probably
in April I would guess uh 2024 program we're surveying complete field inspections are in on the way that's one we just got authorized to do we should be out to bid for that I'm hoping probably in April so we'll get a good PR you know be got to start that in Midsummer through the fall probably get
a majority of it done uh kept well we re we received the bids for the asbest and we got bids for the demo the demo was over the bid threshold so we have to put that out the public bid I just got to confirm with Dave and Ricky the the fundings in place to do that uh next one fireman's pond we
received our fishing game permits to lower the pond for that we are we submitted everything for our permits I'm expecting permits from the D for that the end of the month so that was pretty good um the mayor myself and and Dave met with the county to talk about them
helping us out with the services um I don't know that we got a real answer out of that but I think they're willing to help us but I don't know to what level I think the mayor and D will have to work that out with I look I felt that the meeting was uh pretty productive um I agree with you we didn't get any
definitive numbers but I think you have to get over to them what they require on you know I've been sending the maps they want because remember they want to do that little little piece of D snagging they call it I sent them a couple Maps but I I'm going to have to probably go out there with them because the maps
aren't telling the whole picture because where they want to clean out to open up the channel is not accessible from The Edge and I think that's their problem so they're going to have to figure out how they're going to get there and how far they want to go to reach that middle Channel I'm cautiously optimistic that the director will work with us on this
project um as he has actually made it known that he wants to have the Partnerships with the municipalities so you know that's my hope yeah he's pushing their engineering department har because they keep coming back to me with questions about firemen so I think firemen's and Terrace I believe they're
trying to get some uh just so everybody knows here I know terce was a big um big bone of contention so we're trying to get a little piece started over there before we before the commission does their project up uh Upstream so whatever
we can do that's and and the director was very adamant on that yes he wants to open that channel so the water flows better through there which would be a positive yep uh next one ter lollipop Pond we're I'm going to start the uh so
testing for that we worked it out with the D we did confirm with the D that the grant money that we did get will pay for soil testing so we will move forward with that um Terrace Pond we spoke of snow was kind of that's kind of off the charts right now uh 1515 Logan State came back
and said they wouldn't let us use the rain Gard they want to use a a sand infiltration Basin so that we had to get new soil LS for that that was done last week waiting for the sols report once that comes in that'll go back to the D probably early next week so that should be the final step they need and we should be pretty much done with that
project and get our permits uh next one bimbler road a traffic study uh a couple weeks ago I sent the letter to the County engineer with our description of how we're going to close that off I did not hear back from him I'm surprised he didn't say something to me at the meeting the other
day but uh we haven't heard back from them so I'll probably next week I'll reach out to him and see if he's in agreement that he's going to let us do that which I'm sure he's not but so do they have any say in that uh probably I mean it's it's a kind of a traffic thing you know people are used to coming off of there but it's
just there's no left turn lane there so I don't think it causes a traffic problem if left turn that it would be a problem but I think it's just a matter of them agreeing to that we're going to put up the do not ENT signs in the concrete barriers with the reflectors on but ultimately it's our decision though
yes it's our it's our road so we're obviously out of courtesy we're having this discussion that there's no left turn now should we uh Dave reach out to um the manager in Asbury just to yeah I think what I'd like to do first I just
want to talk to their engineer to see what is his opinion is you know cuz leave it at that low right now but after next week yeah I think we got to bring it up a notch respond whatever you need from us okay uh next one was the crosswalk on Maple and sunset that'll be done in the
spring when the weather is more conducive to painting that uh Trail on roller Road the bike trail that's done it's in for DOT for final payment processing uh Kramer Court bridge that one has taken a while the contractor finally agree when we hired the elri
contractor I recommended he's already submitted the shop drawings I approved them those are on order he's filing for the electrical permit to put in the service to put those in and we will be using the lights that go across that bridge that will dim out to no light unless there's motion so there'll be a
motion detector so at the night time hours that there won't be any lighting unless there's Motion in there we get any uh cost estimate on that it's already part of the project did yeah cuz he was supposed to do all the lighting the contractor who got the bridge never had to wherewithal how to get the light so that's why I put him in contract with
this electric contractor okay good uh the stream cleaning for the popper um we we have finished the last piece from behind the Human Services building out to 35 so that stream is clean from 35 to whale pond so that's the good news the bad news is with all the rain we're
going to get because the piece between whale Pond and Mammoth hasn't been cleaned so Mammoth could see a little problem I was just talking to Tom about that that he's going to have the police keep an eye on that because if we do get to inch and it comes in a compressed time frame it could cause a little bit of flooding at whale Pond predominantly
on uh whale Pond uh right is the second entrance when you're going north yes that usually floods pretty bad that's right where the brook comes through so it's going to get there a little faster and we're going to have problems in Deal Park as well yes
okay because we didn't get that fully cleaned up no but I mean that's part of what we're working on anyway so that everybody knows here as well we're working on uh trying to get the extended outfall pipe under the tracks uh in Deal we've had a meeting with uh oems in
regard to that and deal so that we can start getting this project uh together I guess we we're just looking to get try to get the approvals from uh few of the residents Greg is that what it was one okay just the one guy
okay but we're still working on that we just have to meet with them yep uh next one was we talked about about putting an additional piping system in that same area down runion I looked at the topography and it's it's really not going to be cost effective because the from the low spot which is the Holly Terrace area it probably goes up
vertically about 4 ft before you get to Washington Avenue so by the time we ran a pipe down there we would be 8 ft deep not that we couldn't get into the stream because it's the same elevation it's just we're not following the low spot we're going through a high spot so I have to look at moving that further to the north closer to the stream possibly
going down Sheridan I think that might be a little lower I'll look at that or we might have to put a pump in like we do at Sally's hole to pump the storm water that may be cost effective but I'll run the two differences and let you know what I come up with what's the maintenance on something like that
pretty light yeah yeah I mean Sally sallyo I think we changeed the pumps in there once every 10 years and they're little they're little like 10 horsepower pumps really yeah yeah we have one at click wood also that's been in there 15 years and we haven't had to change it yet cwood has one that's a little small
drainage a little in the yeah there yeah that about 15 years ago wow okay see it worked well nobody even know was there us to me even the homeowners probably don't even remember it's there probably not but it's that would have been Eric I shouldn't have probably cursed myself now that
it's Greg we got a flood up here on Wayside that's not good uh um the next one was uh last meeting we talked about the lady that lives on um Sher Sheridan that 1179 the corner of Rose Ellen
Sheridan she was complaining that water was coming off from a guy's pool turned out it wasn't from his pool it's just a natural topography she ended up there used to be a swell that ran between her two properties ran out to sherid she planted that so that's blocking the water it builds up to a point in that
guy the gentleman's on 401 Crosby's backyard until it over tops and runs into her driveway so we're working with the guy in 41 Crosby to get him to put an inlet in and bring it out to uh Crosby cuz there's plenty of fall he's up he's elevated about 3 ft above Crosby so we're just going to have him drain it
out the Crosby okay so that'll that should solve that lady's problem uh next one is leis Street I think uh Jesse has a handout for you I wrote a letter a memo the police had uh requested us looking at this because there's a parking problem on leis Street and the
roads are narrow a lot of parking on both sides of the street and we're mostly concerned with emergency vehicles can't get through there we we have a RightWay that's 40 ft wide a pavement with of ft wide and if you park on both sides you cannot get a fire truck through that area so the police wanted
me to look at making this a one way and I went out and I looked at the roads all in the area you can see the little map in the back that's attached is uh what happens is we decided to make like a clockwise I guess it depends with ENT you're going to come down leou street towards Rosevelt in case your map is upside down but it's like a clockwise
rotation so you'll be able to come up wells will be one way towards revelt avue that way nobody will get trapped in there so the clock tce to get in there so if you're coming down Rosevelt and live on Le Street you're going to have to come down to Cedar Street to get in the stub end of leis Street will obviously be two ways for the one or two
people or driveways that are down there but to make that any other way would cause a l a log Jam if you made leis Street one way in if you were coming up Wells you would be stuck at that intersection and have to back out of that intersection so this is really the only practical way to do that to make sure traffic
flows the only thing is is probably in the near future we'll probably hear from people on Cedar Street because it's you know that's the same thing it's a narrow road parking both sides so that would probably going to be a oneway in eventually if they want that which wouldn't be a bad thing so what happened they just did not make it wide enough
when they first built it yeah well it's it's just it's the amount of parking I mean I think we have the same problem a lot of street if you go down brass miror between Logan and W it's the same thing it's just heavy dense parking right now because of the number of kids in the neighborhood and the driveways are small it's you would not be able to get a fire
truck down that lane that line too easy let alone the traffic two ways very difficult it's just it's the it's a timing thing because of the people that live in the home you think the cedar Street's going to become the next problem it might so then what to go to MTH and go no then we would make that one way in that Woulda that would give
you the loop oh they give you a loop yeah it just then you'd be a a clockwise rotation I got it so it wouldn't really be a bad thing it's just they didn't ask for what so I didn't want to recommend until they want that okay sounds good okay that was all I had for tonight all right let's go around the horn for
questions for Greg G do you have anything yeah uh Greg one a resident reached out to me about larwood Avenue he said that he was talking to you about possibly putting like a bike logo on the street because all of the pedestrians on the street are kind of in well first you
wanted a walkway industry and I told them we can't put a walkway indry but I said we put a bike line there and if you choose to use it as a walkway that that would be the best way to do it so we could put the Sher along there it is wide enough and the traffic is the speed limit is low enough to do that yeah it is bad because because the it's it's a combination of things you have the
college kids that race through there so it's a kind of an enforcement thing and it would be a good thing to put the bike link through there because it gives you know a little more buffer for people that want to walk there what's and the speed limit on that block is 25 35 yeah I think they he wanted to L 25 but I
said you have to get a traffic stud Poli okay but yeah we I did talk to him and if if you want to do that we can probably do that we get painted with the road program in the spring yeah I think uh you know even cost wise they would yeah no it wouldn't it's I don't know it's probably 200 probably cost about5
$600,000 with the number of sherels we have to paint in there not many okay there a couple signs okay we can do that now it'll just be from Park North yeah to the north border mhm okay no problem great thank you and I'll
tell them to talk to traffic about this if he wants to lower speed it would help I mean I I can't enforce that they have to right come back to me with that okay anything else no okay Dave yes so on the corner of deal and bound I saw that uh
jcpnl contractors been out there taking some trees down so they took down some of those monster trees that I think were causing the site issues over there I didn't know if you had anything to do with that or just they happened to be dead trees that jcpnl was taking out they wouldn't take them out for that
reason they taking them out I don't know what it is but they're maybe into the lines so yeah they are into the lines so it actually made that corner a little more visible because if you're coming West on deal you get to the intersection it's always a little dicey there that's big yeah they're almost like uh they're
crummy trees so um yeah I didn't know if he had anything to do with so that intersection is all done mhm okay that's been in the works uh Bill Brooks was on top of that more so because of the Dead ones that were over by uh Bentley yeah so they were coming up this was supposed
to be done a while ago but they were waiting to get in that section I didn't know they were doing up there either but they went all the way down they went all the way down it looks good yeah so they probably took care there was a lot of trees up and down that street what's the plan going forward for the kepwell uh
intersection so cold Indian bound there that's going to be in the program that I'm designing now we're going to make that a T intersection instead of a sweep so it's going to make it more of you know you're going to have to come up to a deal and make a off of bound and make a right hand turn versus going 40 m
hour down sweet yeah that's a that's a suicide corner it's been that way for years it's terrible all right good that's it Jeff I don't uh don't have anything right now Koke uh Township matters or manager John
I got one oh I'm you know Rob he's like Oz you did it on purpose you no Rob I didn't I'm waiting I was waiting for Jeff he kind of screwed me up I was waiting for a lot of questions hey uh uh Greg have you had any requests
from anybody to uh repaint the Rec Center parking lot where the basketball the rec center basketball one on West Park I got a call this week or text whatever it was they were saying that there are no lines there and while I didn't drive since she mentioned it I do
remember it being pretty faint you don't you talking about the pool the gym oh the gym yeah I I haven't uh nobody asked me to do that um I didn't look at it but I can take a look at it it's easy enough to repaint if we need them repainted yeah if you don't mind take a look I I think she's
probably right I don't know if we can sneak it in a 23 or 24 budget but just let me know what you think okay yeah if it needs to be painted I can paint it in the RO pring because we do all the the line striping it it won't even be you know it's a very cheap to do in there we
did the P course last year yeah thank you okay no problem anything else Rob yep I got it thank you okay thanks uh Township matters uh Dave I just want to give everybody update from topology who's doing our Route 35 uh
revitalization strategic blueprint to guide the future planning efforts to revitalize Route 35 Corridor they have completed their first part which is the physical and Regulatory conditions they completed the uh field survey they
completed the vacant storefront review uh they completed existing zoning and prior planning review and they also completed the catalog summarization of existing data and ongoing traffic mitigation plans next up they're going to get into the phase two which is the
market uh area which they're going to interview uh local investors and Brokers they're going to interview Fort Mammoth and Netflix they are also going to uh do a property specific Outreach and then uh they'll do a preliminary public survey
and then um they're going to give us a high level of some case studies of definition of success and then that'll concluded in the third part they'll be able to complete the Strategic plan which will be the final product so Dave in that uh interview with Netflix use
them obviously that's the the Big Talk do they find out from them basically what they're looking for outside of that that could come out of that conversation yeah because you know as you know Netflix is going to be huge a lot of lot of employees going to be there a lot of
folks moving in the area so we need to basically I mean that's what it's going to turn into so good anything else Dave that's all I have to report um Council I don't know if you want to do we have a flag
request yeah just one thing for close session we have a litigation matter close session I have a flag request to fly the briek flag from March 25th to March 26 by District 11 legislative office they did it last year
sure everybody in agreement just a one day or just a one day so everyone in agreement yeah okay sounds fine approv rob you good with that I am fine yes thank you there you go thank you all for me all right let me go
around for Council comments start with councilwoman Kaplan I'm good all right councilman aera you there I'm gonna pass what gonna pass I'm gonna pass wow oh
man fire wow I expected to be there actually you know what I do have one comment you can ask Steve to get a price for a conference room phone in there it keeps clipping out okay have audio on those
you need a conference room phone gotcha okay thank you that's included in the new building Rob deputy mayor uh yes I I think that in light of the recent Super Bowl and ocean Township's Native Son Kenny picket
I would love to uh in coordination with h his schedule his parents and and even Kelly try to do something really wonderful for that kid because I don't know too many kids from Ocean Township who won Super Bowls so that's pretty exciting for all of us wild it's it's a huge role model for the
kids maybe we partner something up with the bard of Ed but I think it's uh it's it's bigger than just Kenny picket punt passing kick day I think this is you know maybe a little parade something fun yeah I talked to Jen briefly and I think you know you had spoken to uh her
somebody else you had told me so I'll reach out to Kelly and Welden and find out and uh see what Kelly and and the family Kelly going through a couple things right now I know there's and uh the pickets were away so um doesn't have to be done today but yeah no no I think
we definitely keep it on our radar it's a great idea I mean we got some big press coverage from ABC News Philadelphia news they even made a shout out on that during the Super Bowl I mean it's is a big thing yeah it's big stuff man so it doesn't happen every day so I think it's uh we might as well
capitalize on it that's right and it's uh I don't think anybody could be any more humble and deserving so good for him 100% spot on thank you all right anything else that's it all right councilman Weinstein I was going to say that it's all in New Order you going Joe
I was like what Greg Greg's a big Philly fan yes good are you a good good deal well we'll definitely have you there for sure I guess I just I guess I just wanted to say that it's a nice to be here and thanks everybody for the
patience and kind of bringing me up to speed and meeting with me and giving me the load down so just uh for those who haven't helped me yet thanks for thanks in advance but for those who have thanks thanks I really appreciate it and if you haven't guaranteed he's going to call you for some
help uh the shout out I'd like to give and I very rarely see compliments on Facebook and getting emails but the road department did an absolutely outstanding job in this last event that we had um
the nice thing is I'm out at 4:00 in the morning so I can see firsthand what's going on and I actually reached out to Higgins and he was up and I was telling him I said you know the main roads looked absolutely phenomenal early on uh
his system of doing the brine early and and getting that on the roads uh now you know granted the the weather warmed up so that helped out a lot this isn't going to happen all the time coming from experience knowing this for 15 years but I have to say our roads looked fantastic
when I was in other towns um Steve and and the and the guys on the road department and the ladies in the office they're all to be commended just a great job Dave you can extend that to them I know I forwarded over a an email from Brian Valentino and uh there were several good comments on Facebook so it
was nice so again thanks to the guys um I am going to uh ask my first my vice chairman of the planning board along with our environmental commission chair Ed def figas so go ahead
understand oh oh yeah Greg you can get out of here you're dismissed no disrespect uh so I'm here with he's got a long ride home with Nancy erck who is a member of our Green Team and she's also an associate member of the environmental commission um and we are
here because last week last Thursday right before our environmental commission meeting we got an email from some residents up on Howard AB who brought to our attention an issue that is occurring across town with with a new type of siding in Stucco installation
that's become very popular and it's called IUS and I forget exactly what that acronym stands for but essentially what it is is they're taking styrofoam panels and they're putting them on the walls of the buildings to insulate it and they're scoring them to
then can I ask you one favor move down there sure I can SL down for hot seat for you got it all warmed up so so what's happening is they're taking these styrofoam panels right and
they're scoring them so that the stucco product that they're putting on to them will then stick okay the issue is when they're doing this it's generating a lot of waste of Styrofoam it it looks like snow that we've got some pictures in it it's clogging it's getting to drain so
maybe Greg shouldn't have left but it's it's just everywhere it's blowing around it's getting on the neighbor's properties and because it's so popular and it's happening they said I think it's happened two or three times in the last couple weeks over there and it's just a mess so they had proposed that
there are some ordinances that require when you're doing installations of this type to limit what kind of dust blows around and that's why Nancy is here because Nancy has been working with another group that works on plastic waste in general and uh Mammoth Beach
just passed an ordinance last year around plastic waste that is similar it's it's when you're cutting PVC and vinyl sighting and everything else it gets into the air that we might be able to adopt adapt to cover styrofoam or just add styrofoam onto that because with all the construction that's going
on in town all the houses that are being redone lately it's becoming a bigger issue so Nancy I don't know if you had anything you want to add to that not really just that um I'm working with uh the fellow who started the ordinance in in mam Beach does anyone know Brian Thompson he was a reporter on Channel 4
oh yeah okay so he's retired now he lives in Mammoth Beach and his passion now is to stop all this plastic waste so he got this ordinance developed he's on the environmental commission for Mammoth Beach and he is happy to help us get things going and if you can just get us
a copy so we can look at it I have it I can just forward it to everybody and then we'll have our attorney look at it yeah we go from and I think a little bit of education for any contractors who maybe are based in Ocean Township just say hey these are some options for you
to have containment these are devices you can do that they usually set up like a tent so if they're sewing and and cutting they have this little tent over it a vacuum and that's it it just doesn't go out into the air and into the water and to somebody's neighbor's yard
so so I have a question does the industry know that this is an issue or problem I mean or is this just or is this just the Tradesmen cutting a few corners and they've known about this for years type of thing probably both you know but I don't know anything about stuckos siding that is way outside my
wheelhouse so I can't answer that but I think it sounds like this particular process is relatively new but yeah I I'm surprised that like a company a big company that who like whoever makes this stuff you know that they don't realize they've got an issue well I think it's
it's the again it's it's the scoring process is making sure that the stucco can stick to the styrofoam because the styrofoam they've been using for forever that's that's not the issue it's just how it's adhes to the styrofoam and when they could do it I guess theoretically they could do it beforehand they could
do it in a contained area like Nancy suggesting there there's ways around it like we're not saying don't don't do the thing just don't blow styrofoam everywhere yeah with and you said there's devices that they can put over where they're yeah this this news clip
that I'll send to all of you it's a great it's a two-minute video it was on NBC and um it just shows like a like a tent that's really all it is and I guess they have some sort of an attachment and it just vacuums it out that uh it goes
into a I guess a container instead of into the air so typically you see the guys just sawing and cutting and everything's just flying but this way it would just be contained so you know the next issue too is the paer business have you ever seen
the amount of Airborne particle particulate that comes up from that I don't know first of all how those guys are alive after they do that work it's Horrible no masks no masks nothing cut stuff everywhere yeah brutal one thing
at a time we'll do that we'll do that next one universal uh I mean it would make sense I just you know in terms of the the feasibility I mean cuz I guess you could probably even do it under like a littering ordinance but you know getting
it down specifying this type of particular matter because it goes everywhere and not you know the neighbors properties is getting everywhere but also into our our storm water system that's always the issue I like it all right our uh new councilman will be the liais on to the
environmental commission and good so I'm probably thinking that you know we can funnel right through him and uh you know obviously whatever we got but we'll get get a look at it and go from there I think it makes sense sounds good anything else at and Nancy
while you guys are here no no that was it for that was easy thank you very much and thank you for serving on the commission appreciate it N More to come listen to me Dave I got
plent we had a good talk today me uh yes sir name and address for the record Joseph Jacob uh I didn't need to speak I was just to listen on the Cannabis or here in November yep Al guys okay yeah yeah
okay can I ask my questions from here yes ma'am uh I think so you don't need me to move right I think you're good yeah I think it's good you're by the camera like you don't you don't need we don't need to record her um I have several questions so sorry they're in
several places um okay I'm just wondering you want me to just I'm just going toate them and then you can answer them afterwards that's what we do normally do here Alex Hayes from oakers so wondering when um the rescheduled Town Hall discussion is
coming back um and will the library Meadow definitively be off the table but as I was writing my questions today I realized on the agenda you guys are authorizing um a new a new town hall to
be designed by the architect by architect so how the heck is that happening so that's several questions all in one I guess um The Christmas Eve presentation well I guess it was Christmas Eve Eve presentation about the
tax assessments um I didn't see that online maybe it is and I'm sorry I just couldn't find it it's there but okay can somebody direct me to it because it it didn't seem like when you first pull it up maybe so anyway hopefully it's not 17 clicks like yeah click honest click
YouTube and Just scroll it's in no the paper presentation not I apologize yes got you if there is I'm assuming there was like a PDF or something sorry um uh I've asked several times the school board about the
projected shared services or whatever deal or whatever agreement or whatever anything is that you all are working on with the school board over at Cindy Lane because the mayor has repeatedly said a few things about Cindy Lan and School Board here in council chambers but then
when I've asked the school board like what the heck does that mean and they can't release any information but I finally talked uh for like the third time about it with Miss welen the superintendent and she basically said I don't think she'll mind me paraphrasing
her that she has no control obviously of what anybody on the council says but they have no money to enter into any agreement with the town for anything so I'm just just wondering if you all can give any sort of an update on if you're talking about something going on at Cindy
Lane you know what is it why is it so secretive and Schoolboard saying we don't got any money for it so I don't even know why it keeps coming up um okay that was like the third thing let's see affordable housing I saw there's
something on here I think that for a lay person it's hard to understand what's going on with the state's affordable housing unit requirements are and the towns that are fighting the numbers are we a fighting the numbers that the town is saying or the state saying but what does it really mean like do we really
have to build 150 plus units by x amount of years and how is that going to happen um besides carefully as my father would say or something um I don't know if you've seen on Facebook there's been a lot of
ebike photos from from folks taking U photos of like teenagers on ebikes my kid has an ebik now as I told you all he will be grounded for life if he's ever caught without a head a helmet but there are photos of kids not wearing helmets so I'm really curious to know if
the police have you know issued any I don't want anybody arrested obviously but what's the police doing and how many complaints have they gotten couple more things um wondering is Lester Taylor uh still a council
attorney he was either quit or fired from the Schoolboard um didn't he wanted out of his contract I believe so I'm wondering if is he still in the contract with here with the council um and then that was I still have a couple more I'll be
real quick love the idea about Kenny picket doing something you guys can anything you can do um the punt pass or kick whatever it was there was a cost for that that was $25 a kid so if you could do anything with him can you please make
it for free cuz there were kids that could not attend that um because of the fee and I think that's it except for two more things um snow clowing I'll agree with the mayor they did an excellent job um and I
think that is it folks oh on um I I asked in an Oprah request who was interviewed for um the Council seat and I'm presuming under the minutes today it will be be released tomorrow morning so tomorrow morning I can get it in an
email yes okay um I'm just wondering I I heard from several not several I heard from one person uh who was interviewed that the council asked um about the voting history of this person's spouse so I'm just wondering if you know Jeff
Weinstein's spouse was if if you asked Jeff Weinstein how his spouse voted or any of the other people who were interviewed how their spouse is voted two or if it was you know just about one person and that's it thank you
okay you want me to kick it off uh you do I mean I sorry for interrupting I forgot we were supposed to wait when I answered that f one my apologies why isn't anybody answered anything there's a reason so so the first one up was the rescheduling of town hall yes January we're tentatively
scheduled for March 18th that's going to be a Long March 18th or 19th I believe for the town hall discussion March 18th or 19th we have to get a special meeting for that y okay now the architect is being hired just to help with the programming and planning of what we need
in the new Municipal Hall and a possible concept drawing that's it so and that can go wherever it's going to end up at the second thing you asked was uh share service of Cindy Lane we haven't talked to the school board in months so it started off with that but what the
township is planning is that we like to consolidate our B location the BR we have a br location for public that's the street that by the firehouse yeah oh that's the street the name of the okay y thank you coun then
we have the uh up on Sunset location the yard okay we want to try to consolidate all of that if we can possibly into the Cindy Lane uh area and then repurpose those other yards and and uh and locks and still concept we don't even know if
we can do it and the other issue with that is the Board of Ed about four or five years ago when we had shared service meetings that I've been involved with since the beginning and you might have been on the board at the time there was an issue with the buses that they wanted to get
the buses moved out of the high school lot and moved to a different area within the municipality this offer and it's an offer there's no agreement there's no discussion there hasn't been anything the offer out there for the Board of Ed but you already have the answer that
they told you they don't have money the same thing they told me that they don't have money to build a structure out there to house what they need to do the offer is there if we have the space like our manager said and then the final piece of the puzzle is we can't we
haven't moved forward with it because we're tied up with d it's it's like exactly there's about seven acres and I think probably at least two or three acres of it is probably going to be can't touch it because of the the barrier that we have to put around but
you're still considering something over in Cindy Lane even if it's without the school exactly exactly okay absolutely thank you for and that's why we're it hasn't really moved cuz they don't have any money we don't know about D but it's just kind of there and in trying to do a
shared service agreement we're trying to be the neighborly Council to work with the Board of Ed knowing that they need a location for their buses that's why the offer was put out there and again that's an offer but again they don't have money so you have that answer that they can't
do it or maybe they will I don't know but the offer is there for them there's space our engineer looked at it and you know but then again like Dave said if we don't get clearance move we don't get to move okay the affordable housing we are
not one of the towns fighting okay at the administration's recommendation to governing body they they approved it at a special meeting I think at the end of January where we got about 214 um units that we have to build and I think there was about 30 or 40 that
carry over from the last time we are in a bunch of meetings uh trying to meet with developers nonprofit for-profit trying to take a look at all the properties that we own don't own and see where and how we can do this but no
answers for you right now it's just all drawing board stuff going on it doesn't have to be any Town property though right no no I said I said it could be Town property private property sell their land or they could build something build 50 Town Homes but as long as the town gets those affordable number
housing unit numbers yeah and then every and everything that's built should have a percentage of affordable housing and if they don't they have to put into our affordable housing trust fund which we can use to help with a project that uh that the goverment body deems fit if you
all did like a Housing Authority type thing something similar and where was the number one location that was potentially looked at by affordable cuz we do get you know the thr it out was Plaza it was no it was Route 35 in Deal Road right
across from uh from from the uh where the trees are where the trees are where the town hall was maybe so yeah you can guess what I do with that get get them nuts okay uh ebikes uh to my knowledge
police are enforcing I will talk to the chief about the numbers CU I don't have that off the top but I'm quite sure if if they have there'll be warnings I don't think they we were given out tickets right away and Lester Taylor is still employed here uh contractually as our labor
attorney labor okay and I agree with you with Kenny picket for free if we can do that I will talk to Recreation and obviously the governing body and for the record I believe corrects May or maybe somebody else correct me that was a fundraiser so
the reason it for a nonprofit yes understood good point think for the field and the improvements that we're doing on there okay and then I have to punt on the council interviews cuz I wasn't present punt pick it that was good that was good you like that just do
it on purpose no one's going to answer about the council um there were a series of questions uh you know it's internal um you know whoever asks whatever they ask it is what it is
so um I don't really want to get into the interview itself so I believe the question was not who did you vote for it's it was was everyone asked questions about their spouses voting it was a question about
the person's voting status in Ocean Township in the state in the state okay that's it did everyone get the same question so every everyone got the same question about their own everybody asked different questions to different people
so good okay anything else like can motion to go in close sessioning motion to go and close session so moved all in favor just want to remind everybody that all Township Council meetings will will
be audio and videotaped they'll be shown on the town emotions community cable channel channnel 22 on Verizon FiOS and channel 77 on cable vision can I have a roll call please may here Deputy Mayor fiser here council members theera here

I'm going to come down or we're going to come down off the day I have a few notes on the first one we're going to start off with let just get my notes they better be here because tell you what problem they are this is a uh a great night I mean a few things going on tonight obviously we did
the swearing in and you know with some of the stuff that we do in Council you know obviously in the town this is a you know difficult town to run and operate and represent there's a lot of moving Parts here and you tend to get a lot of complaints on things that you don't
necessarily do quick enough or that you're not doing nice you're not doing right but uh you know we have a fantastic team here led by Dave Brown our manager um but with this also comes some good events so tonight I am very pleased that we're going to be honoring
Joey Valentino so Joey can you come on up here so I have my notes written down I'm not actually going to read the proclamation completely I'll read the tail end of it but oh man I want to start collecting
these this oh wait it's got your name on it oh look at this Joey stand right over here come on so I had to write down notes about Joey because there's just so much to say about this kid it's like
unbelievable what he's done to get to where he is now but he's from the Boy Scouts troop 71 and coming from Troop 143 which is no longer here I know what you did and you got to the highest level of being a Boy Scout which is an eagle
scout but the interesting thing about Joey is Joey has Five Palms and I don't mean five hands he's got 25 more merit badges than he was supposed to get which is unbelievable he was awarded the Glen a and Melinda Adams Council for Eagle
Scout project of the Year top of the class in 2023 he is a fourth generation member of the boy Scouts he is a second generation Eagle Scout Brian you're the man you raised the good one here
buddy yeah I and he was the a volunteer firefighter for both Oak curse and Long Branch Joey also served uh and overcame developmental disabilities and special
needs which teaching in a school district that has a tremendous amount I'm going to tell you right now this is absolutely fantastic what he did um he did and he is going to Brookdale right now which another smart move this kid's
got way more brains than I ever had he's studying graphic design and photography I would definitely say the smart move is going to Brookdale it saves a tremendous amount of money for your families trust me I know I'm paying that bill Brian and Marie Bri Brian is
the class of 889 and National outstanding Eagle Stout so Brian and Marie I'll tell you you guys raised a heck of a son here so and Grandma and Grandpa they're here
nice so Joey let me ask you uh a couple questions here how difficult is it to get to this level well it's of course not easy but it takes dedication and hard work um if you really want to um to trve for greatness it's 100% um um um
strength and power um and it's about having a goal and how to achieve it but I wasn't alone so it wasn't as challenging as it would have been if I didn't have my living family and Scouts alongside of me stuff what was your Eagle Scout project it was a pu dve for
one far fighters in New Jersey long you want to explain a little bit about it yeah so um as a uh as a profit in Long bran I've seen how low the numbers were to cuse and um L Branch figh department has always been a close place to my
heart and I always felt like um we need more amazing people to come out and support um our great town and all great country so I uh gathered alongside with the Boy Scouts and and the uh fire
department to um gather awareness for the strong cause and the important cause of why is important to have firefighters in all um all um areas so yeah it was just a volun um idea for getting more
ideas out there so wow I was just talking to Chief pan last night and he was telling me how difficult it is to get volunteers of like you that want to actually put the time in for the volunteer fire departments and this is really something that we need so if
you're interested and you can hear me and you can see me it's it's really important that you try to volunteer and if you're you know young and you can do it they could really use your help especially in one of mass and O curst it would be great so Brian I want to also call up uh assembly woman Peter Paul who
has a proclamation you don't do you have you have who oh you honor Joey that's right I missed I missed the honor my apologies that's right you've been honored already my mistake so Joey we have a proclamation for you
from the entire Council where it says now therefore be it proclaimed by the mayor and the governing body of the township of ocean that we hereby honor and congratulate Joseph V Valentino upon attaining the rank of Eagle Scout and commend his outstanding record of
service leadership and accomplishment as exemplified by the rank and extend to him sincere best wishes for Contin success in all future endeavors congratulations Joey thank you thank you come on we'll

something that is awesome I love this so uh we have one more honoring that we're going to do tonight and uh I I would tend to think that everybody in this room has um been into the Blue Swan Diner so if I could have the family of the Blue Swan
Diner come on [Applause] up let's get the family up here come on over here wow all right how are you I'm
well hi how you doing come on over here man let's go this is uh Louie his brother Gus wow with his brother Manny and their good friend uh bill ilis they opened the diner in
1974 and in 2013 my brother-in-law Frank and I took over that's great so I'm pretty sure everybody in here knows where the Blue Swan is on Route 35 and if you don't you better get over there and if you didn't get there yet I don't know what you're missing but my
wife and I go in there a lot and I have to say that it's probably one of the Premier spots for meetings of politicians because every time I go in there you might see Senator gopal you might see Tommy arnone they're all in the different seats I've been in there with Shan Kane it's it's quite a site
and it's really a great place and phenomenal food they are actually going on 51 years because we were supposed to honor them a couple of months ago but our wires kept getting crossed so um you know we want to congratulate you on 50
years and my family was in the food business for about 30 to 40 years so I know what it takes about the long days and how many days a week do you work seven days figured that how many hours a day 8 to 10 12 depending on what's
needed yeah it's 24 hours a day and you know it well yeah mentally I'm I'm never out of the place that's right mentally you got to be on your game with a restaurant and what's the hardest part I want to hear the hardest part about owning a restaurant I mean there's so
many moving parts to it but um you know it's just the churn eventually it's a it's a very stressful and and uh difficult business there's a lot of complexity to it but at the end of the day you know um the exhaustion and you
know having to be present all the time gets to you so how's the help situation on your body on your body and your mind how's the help situation we have a great team like I I can't say that I don't have help we have you're lucky yeah we're lucky we have great staff and you
know great family support and uh you know apart from the family that's always willing to help out and always keep a an eye on the place you know we have a good support coming from our families at home our wives our children uh they all
understand the sacrifice uh that comes along with this business you you honestly can't run a restaurant without your family support trust me when my grandparents went into it in 1949 and my father took over years later seeing and watching what my my I didn't see my
father much cuz it was it was a long night and I definitely feel for you with the business I think today one of the hardest things and the reason why I got out of the food business was the help situation a lot of call outs but you have something that I didn't have which is your entire family so I commend you and
your family for just doing the right thing and staying in business in this community and having one of the best diners going and I congratulate you so I would like to just read the tail end of our Proclamation and then I'm going to call up assemblywoman Peter Paul who now
I think I got it right that she actually has the proclamation now therefore be it proclaimed that the township of ocean hereby congratulates the labros the aloes and I'm going to have trouble with that one the macr ma
magris I don't that's my last name I can't how do you did I you got you got the import did did I chop it up families on the 50th anniversary of the Blue Swan that's worse than napat man I'll tell you and and for their valuable
contribution in keeping the township of ocean fed and happy since 1974 congratulations assembly woman can you come up now it's your turn and let's let our County Clerk come up he you want to
hold that the ladies are going to come up they're going to flank you here you go so the mayor is absolutely right and I think Christine will agree with me there are many meetings that take important meetings that take place um at the Blue Swan and so on behalf of
Senator Vin gopal Dr Margie donin and myself this is a joint legislative resolution which I am not going to read in full I just want to highlight this 50 years in business and the
strength and prosperity of New Jersey and the Vitality of our American society greatly depend upon exceptional small businesses exemplified by the Blue Swan Diner that provide employment opportunities enhance the local economy
offer unique products and services and improve the quality of life for area residents and also provide support and food for our local politicians um but be that as it may be it further resolved that a duly authenticated copy of this
resolution signed by the Senate President and the assembly speaker and attested to by the Senate secretary and the assembly clerk be transmitted to the Blue Swan Diner and be permanently in record down in Trenton so
over congratulations um as an Ocean Township resident and raising my children here in Ocean Township I just want to say um that the Blue Swan is legendary and when you have four little kids you can't always go out for dinner but you can go out for breakfast
and you know what our favorites you know the blueberry pancakes the chocolate chip pancakes and Not only was it the most wonderful food uh it was a place to make so many great memories with my family and I'm so happy that uh my my we
