Every incoming governing body promises transparency. But in my 16 years of attending these council meetings, I have not seen a single governing body that really honors that promise. The current governing governing body
just set a new record for demonstrating a lack of transparency at its very first council meeting. First, a little background. The previous governing body seemed to deliberately withhold information about the two pilots that
were hastily approved on December the 16th. Not a shred of pilot related information was made available to the public until minutes before the final vote was taken. If it were not for information leaked to Parcity Focus, the
public would still not know that the park pilot will cost taxpayers $117 million over 30 years. That number was never mentioned by Precipity supposed financial consultant during his presentation at the count council
meeting. nor did he mention the price uh the price tag of the Landedex warehouse pilot, an amount that still has never been revealed publicly. This lack of pilot related information could have been rectified at the January
6th meeting when Councilman McGrath made a motion to introduce an ordinance to repeal both of the December 16th pilots. This motion would have resulted in a discussion of the costs, the pros and cons, and the suspicious circumstances
that preceded the approval of the two pilots. But there was one big problem. For some unexplained reason, not a single member of the council had the courage to second Councilman McGrath's motion. Seconding the motion did not constitute
a vote to repeal the pilots, nor was it an indication that the other council members agreed or disagreed with Councilman McGrath. There would have still been two other opportunities to vote against the ordinances to repeal if the motion succeeded. By not seconding
the motion, the council seemed to deliberately suppress any further discussion about the pilots. [clears throat] so much for transparency. A minute ago, I mentioned that there were suspicious circumstances that preceded the approval of both the parks
and the landedex warehouse pilots. I need another 5 minutes to describe them all. However, one involving the Landex warehouse pilot should be resolved tonight during the council attorney's report.
At the December 16th and January 6th meetings, the council was made aware that the developer had completed more than half of the warehouse project prior to the approval of the pilot ordinance. This action violated one of the terms explicitly written into the pilot
agreement, which clearly states that construction could not begin until the council approved the pilot ordinance and the mayor signed off on it. Now that he has had time to review the relevant pilot documentation, the
township attorney is expected to render an opinion about the validity of the contract during his report to the council tonight. Thank you. >> Thank you, Bob. Can I just make some comment? We're we're putting >> You can make a comment.
>> It's not to you, Bob. I'm just want to say we're going to be keeping index cards on on the table here. So, if you feel like you want to have further comments that we could review after the meeting, you can put them on the index card with your name and number and we
can get back to you. Okay. >> After Okay. My name is Jack Rya. At the January 6 town council meeting, Councilman McGrath served up softball pit served up a softball pitch right down the middle of the plate for the rest of the town council to take turns hitting out of the
park. His motion merely to discuss the reversal of the two pilots passed in the lane duck session in December against the obvious and electoral ris wish wishes of the public should have been a no-brainer. Instead, the town council sat on its hands and took the
opportunity to miss the opportunity, treating the like a third rail. By the way, 40 towns in New Jersey failed to meet the 123125 community deadline to resolve challenges to their affordable housing plans. The
state merely extended the deadline to March 15th. After the January 6th meeting, there should have been some soulsearching. Education has allegedly been a foundation of the administration. The C town council should have come in ready to address the long-term damage
done to education in this town by the previous administration, especially because the damage done is the main reason why two new members are sitting here now and they should want to reverse the damage done last month because they had the ability to do so and at the same
time correct the non-feasence of avoiding the situation. The good news is the town council and the administration should have it within their power to correct the damage done. One of the big selling points made by Mr. Iglacto and others is that pilots are a way to get
around the 2% cap and allocate funds above that 2% cap. There shouldn't be any reason why the administration can't allocate pilot money to the school district with an ordinance or as part of its budget. Sound holistic town management would have invited the
schools and other stakeholders to be involved in ne in negotiations with the developers from the beginning not as an afterthought but as a critical partner in stakeholder in parcipity. Just because the town wasn't required to include the schools and other
stakeholders in the negotiations does not mean they should have. The state controller pointed out this flaw in its 2010 report and the state legislature is belatedly seeing the error of its ways and legislation is currently up for
consideration that would mandate the inclusion of stakeholders in pilot negotiations. There seems to be a school of thought that the town is better off because it has more revenue with the pilot than it would have had with adalorum taxes. That thinking is flawed
because it ignores the additional costs to be absorbed by the school district. It's not yet known how many students would come from the pilots. That's why the board of education suggested a shared revenue per pilot student agreement. It is hoped by a large
segment of the town that the town council will address this issue and if it won't to public publicly disclose how the pilot money will be spent. Thank you. Yeah. My name is My name is Subas Patel and
I'm here to address item number four, the cannabis audience. Good evening honorable mayor and u members of the town council. My name is Subas Patel. I have been parting resident for over 30 years and I'm a
uh resident of 30 years. I'm speaking tonight as a member of our group that applied for a cannabis retail license through the township fair and open application process. It is my understanding that the former cannabis advisory committee included the prior business administrator, township
attorney and mayor. All of them are no longer servicing serving those roles. To date, our group has not received information regarding how applications were reviewed, how criteria were evaluated or how scoring was determined.
We do appreciate the council staff and a council to identifying the correcting the issues related to the mindset resolution that is on the agenda to be resided tonight. We have also related the township to problem with the cyber
dispensary resolution. It is appears that the property is located too close to the residential properties and violates the 100 ft setback rule. We hope this new administration will look into the resolution as well as the township moves forward under this new administration. We respectfully ask
[snorts] that this applications be reviewed carefully as new resolutions are considered. We are confident that such a review will show that our application team is among the most qualified. Our group currently operates
25 cannabis retail locations, is financially strong and well capitalized, has committed to contributing over 1% of the gross revenue to the township of charitable purposes and has deep local ties to particip. We hope the township continues
to value merit experience and community partners. Thank you for your time and thoughtful consideration. >> Anyone else? Tim Barios, 24 Farmstead Drive. Um, also let me state that uh I am a member of the Corsipany Board of Education and any
statements that I'm making here as of myself as a private citizen and they're not reflective of the board of education or the district. Um, I would love to come up here and top uh Mr. Venencia, Mr. Rehea, but I
cannot. They did an awesome job. So, I'm just going to try to add a little uh flavoring. Um, I am humbly asking this council to
rethink what I consider to be an an opportunity to revisit these these pilots of December that were forced down the throats of the residents of Paripany,
forced down the throats of taxpayers and especially especially members who send their children to the schools. Um I personally provided many of the council members on the 2025 council with
information that was accurate, researched and was totally dismissed um for false information. There was no
need to make this decision other than poor planning on the prior administration's part. There was no need to force feed these two pilots down the throats of parony taxpayers.
And ultimately, if something isn't done in a positive manner, it will affect the parents who send children to the schools, especially on the west side of town.
I really am looking forward to working in a positive manner with the current uh current council. Uh I am also reappointed as the liaison to the council.
But as a member 14 years on the board of education and someone who sat on finance, someone who did a lot of this work and has done all the homework on this thing, let me tell you what's going to happen is that the dominoes have
begun to fall and will continue to fall. See in the private in the previous council they didn't want to hear it [cough] I am begging this council even if you don't want to change your minds I am begging you to listen to us
who have done the homework remember as a elected member of the parcipany board of education I draw no salary I don't get a nickel no one paints my house for free no one does anything. No one does my snow, nothing. I do it
myself. So, I have not and my kids already graduated from the school system. So, I really have no personal gain. But I'm talking about our citizens in this town today who come here with little kids that want to go to East Lake
Elementary, Littleton Elementary, Lake Parcipony Elementary, the Hills, [clears throat] Brook Lawn. The other council didn't want to hear this. I am begging you, listen to us. We know what we speak of. We're not lying. We have nothing to
gain. I am here to talk. I'm here to listen. But I am begging you that dominoes have begun to fall. And remember, as our
schools go, so do our town. Thank you. >> Thank you. Good evening everybody. Uh, everybody's safe from the storm. Uh Tony Fano, 41 Robin Hood Road, Mars Plains. Got a couple questions, but I'll turn around.
I also email them. Uh we have several private complexes in the town, correct? They all pay taxes. So my question is, why are we going to open Pandora's box and have a private complex from going in and funding all
the roads? It just doesn't make sense. Second question to what's happening in the news is uh every almost every school district is on the news >> there are every almost every school district's on the news so uh I opened a request that a board
audit was supposed to be done it doesn't exist >> what was the last thing you said >> board of education we the town council approved a board of education audit by a separate auditing person and if you've been watching in the news hackinach's meeting tonight. They're 25 million
short. Patterson's 60 million short. Monontlair's 40 million short. And it's happening all over the state. So maybe we need to find out who the attorney was, who stopped the audit, and why. Third question. Embassy Suites is I know
on the list. According to Mr. Weber, five years we've been spending $6 billion on housing. Now, why can't we take that over first before we keep building
for veterans, homeless, and everything else has gone up 57% in this state every year for the past 5 years. So, if that unit would help out hundreds of people, why aren't we why don't we take it from
the last section and get it done now? I just it's amazing. And thank you, Mr. Mayor, for going on about the storm because uh people were asking me constantly about the plows. So, you can use my saying cuz I said the
mayor came on, please stay home. And a couple neighbors, well, I got to go out. I said, well, you're safer at home. Well, I got to go out. Well, I can't fix stupid. Thank you. Anyone else? Okay, seeing no one, I'd like to
entertain a motion to close the public session, please. >> Motion. >> Motion made by Miss Patel, seconded by Mr. Karifi. >> Roll call. Mr. Karifi, >> yes. >> Mr. McGrath, Mr. Kavanaaugh, >> yes. >> Miss Patel, >> yes. >> Miss Hernandez, >> yes. >> Okay, floor's closed. Moving along to
the consent agenda. Being resolved, all items listed with an asterct are considered routine and non-controversial at Township Council will be approved by one motion. There will be no separate discussion of these items unless a council member so request in which case Ann will be removed from the consent agenda and considered in its normal sequence on the agenda. May I please have a motion to approve the consent agenda?
>> Motion >> second. >> Motion made by Mr. Karifi, seconded by Miss Patel. Roll call. Mr. Karifi. >> Yes. >> Mr. McGrath. >> Yes. >> Mr. Kavanagh. >> Yes. >> Miss Patel. >> Yes. >> Miss Hernandez. >> Yes.
>> Motion passes. Okay. Approval of minutes. Uh, can I get a motion to approve the minutes of 122 and 1216 for the year of 2025, please? >> Motion. >> Second. >> Motion made by Miss Patel, seconded by Mr. Karifi. Roll call. Mr. Karifi. >> Yes.
>> Mr. McGrath. >> Yes. >> Mr. Kavanagh. >> Yes. >> M. Patel? >> Yes. >> Mr. Hernandez? >> Yes. >> Motion passes. Moving on to presentation and reports. Uh, Mayor Hello. Okay. I'd like to thank everyone at the DPW, Parks, Sewer, and Water
Department for an outstanding job during this major snowstorm. I also like to thank Governor Mike Cheryl for declaring a state of emergency ensuring safety across the state of New Jersey. On a good note, I received an email from the Feder Rico family thanking Bruno,
one of our uh parks and sewers worker, for helping them get unstuck in the snow. He was kind, professional, and an example of personally taking care of each other. Same thing happened to me. Two strangers helped me out uh when I got stuck when I went out to check on DPW.
Uh I should have taken my own advice to stay home, but I had a job to do to go check on on the team. for the transition this month. I'd like to commend on all the professionalism displayed in all my meetings with the department heads. We are putting together a plan for their needs in their
areas and we are also working on the budget and taking steps to adopt and present the budget on time. I'd like to thank Mark Seaman who will be appointed tonight as our new business administrator. He comes to us with a wealth of experience from towns similar
in size to us and in some cases larger. He comes to us with a heart and purpose to help Precipany go in the right direction and I look forward to seeing him work with everyone. I recently had the opportunity to attend the Precipany Volunteers Ambulance Squad
installation dinner. All the council members were in attendance and had the opportunity to get to know them better and their partners along with appreciating all the work the squad is doing. Finally, well, not still got a few more things. Uh, I like to support small
businesses. So, I went to my very first ribbon cutting uh at the lazy cafe in Lake Haywata. I'd like to thank Frank Cahill for organizing that through the economic development council for the invite. Most council members were in attendance along with new patrons and it
was a very nice event. I'm all for supporting small businesses in participating. 126 Yesterday was India's Republic Day. The day India adopted the constitution and committed itself to democracy, liberty and the rule of law. Republic Day is about responsibility as
much as rights. It's about understanding that democracy only works when people show up and stay engaged and to work to leave things better than they found them, which is what I'm promising here in Precipany. Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. The
Holocaust did not begin with camps. It began with words, with dehumanization, with silence in face of justice. Remembrance is not only about honoring the past. It is about recognizing our responsibility in the present to confront hatred when it appears to
reject dehumanization in all its forms and to ensure that never again is a commitment we live by and not just a phrase we repeat. That's my report. >> Thank you, mayor. Uh Patrick Council, >> um I have a report.
Um, the Parcipony Troy Hills Economic Development Committee along with Mayor Poca Desai will celebrate the arrival of the new managing partner with a ribbon cutting ceremony on Saturday, January [snorts] 31st at 100 p.m. The event will mark an exciting milestone for businesses and local community. The
public is invited to attend and help welcome the new managing partner to Parcany. Thank you. >> Anybody else? >> Um, yes. I also want to thank the DPW and thank you mayor. Um I think my vote was plowed
like 10 times. It was great. It was very easy. >> They plowed everybody's road 10 times, not just the council presidents for the record. Okay. >> No, no, no. Okay, that didn't sound right. But >> just want to make that clear. Okay. They plow everybody's roads 10 times. >> Plow everybody's road. But they they do
get out there. It's it's >> nine. We'll make sure. Just let me know your speed number and make it 11. Okay. Um, I do have some reappoints though to make >> absolutely council president more. You sure can. >> Um, let me just get it up here because I have it in my mouth.
Um, for the in Are you going to write this down? >> I have a pen ready and handy. >> For the environmental advisory committee, I have for the council member three-year term, Michelle Gainor. For the traffic advisory committee, I
have a council um appointment for a three-year term for Eric Dinsmore. And for the zone zoning board of adjustment, I have a reappoint for the regular member um for four-year term, Scott Joitz.
Jositz. Yes. And if anybody's interested, they meet tomorrow at 5:00 at the high. I believe it's going to be a long meeting and that's it. >> Thank you, council president. Any other member from township council? Okay,
township attorney. >> No report. >> No report. >> Okay. So, business administrator and town clerk, I'll just take to both of them right now real quick. I just want to take um well, as everybody knows, we've been doing a transition for the last month. Uh I do want to take this opportunity to thank the mayor uh for
having the confidence in me to you know help him in assisting the transition. I do want to thank the council uh because uh their support has always been incredible throughout all the years and especially now cuz you know we were a little bit overloaded and I thank you guys for all your understanding as well. Uh we did manage in the short period of
time to do a lot of things uh as the mayor said we met with department heads. We're putting together a plan and we're going to continue to keep this train moving forward. I also want to take this opportunity to welcome uh Mark Seaman, our new BA. I think we're going to do uh great things together and uh I think
you're going to do great here. So uh congratulate Well, not congratulations you don't have the votes. No, I'm just kidding. It's fine. Congratulations, Mark. Um with that being said, oh, one more thing. Special election February 5th. We have uh as you all know, we have
about 20 polling locations. your uh where you would vote will be on the uh vote by mail ballot that you get. If you guys have any questions, you can always contact my office. Absolutely. As always, our polls are open from 6:00 a.m. They close at 8:00 p.m. Any information that you may need, please
