portion first we have Tim Jones there was another excuse me there was another gentleman who wanted to speakly but he's not here excuse me here I am um good evening everyone even my name is Tim Jones presid resident president
of President concern Citizens Community organization um I would like to start by saying you know I see that new is on the agenda for CFO job congratulations on that and um and it's also my hope that you will um in the future continue to
devel more information as to what's going on in city council and how things are operating I'm speaking specifically of the amount of information being made available as to the agenda if you go to eht's website or sum's points website there's a stack like that available of
information that you can view if you wish as to what's going on at the City Council meetings um tonight's meeting um this this wasn't even complete half step's even missing from this B ER I guess and but also with regards to the bill list we used to be able to hear things that are on the bill list things
are being discussed and considered for purchase now we're not even hearing that you're just saying approve you got to tell us more about what's going on and I'm going to continue to press for more disclosure via the website possibly I'm not ask you to print that stack for everybody here this is sufficient for
here but you need to make more information available to the public now with regards to that other issue I I I come to um speak on is regarding the appointment of our business administrator Mr law um there's a common addage that goes if you want to build a great City or
business you must surround yourself with great people who know the needs of your community and have a vested interest in seeing it flourish just to make it clear my opposition to this hiring decision is not personal I believe our city needs to be protected from bad decision making I
understand that Mr was a hired person to promote that bad sewer deal that we fought so hard we fought like a year to stop my question of concerns are these did Mr laws know it was a bad deal and if he thinks it was a good deal
why has no other municipality and I have done some research I can't find a municipality within the tri state area that's done one of those deals since we shot this one down and if you look s concession deals up the main thing that comes up is US shutting it down and so
as to a higher a business administrator that did not see what was wrong with that deal raises concern to me and that's what I express personally if he gets a job I hope he's the best business administrator the city's ever had that's that is also the truth of the matter but
I do think that these matters need to be discussed and considered if he think it was a good deal why like I said no why has no one else done it and and if he knew it was a bad deal why would you do something that would bring harm to Pleasantville because that deal would have bring brought harm to Pleasantville I looked up a bill somewhere just today
um where it's going up 133% a year water bill and sewer bill because of one of those deals some somewhere in PA and then none a record around here recently and so that's what I want to say and what does it say about a Billy to make good decisions for the city of pville
and those are my questions I to answer in verbally or in writing thank you very much next we have Gordon Pratt how you doing um I mean on behalf of the Pu
Jokers uh we had had a meeting prior to season in which uh the city had committed to getting our field refurbished by fresh cut uh long care and the proposal was sent it's
supposed to been approved two emails were sent and there was no response we're supposed to have a meeting at least every two weeks or at least once a month to you know to uh keep Communication open between the city and
the PV Jokers and so uh we're on a time sensitive it's time sensitive now because you know in order for the field to be prepared by the season starts if we really should already be almost finished we should have been started to
be honest with you because we're not because we're not siding it we're only seeding it the proposal is for the proposal is for to be leveled out gred leveled out make sure it has a nice
pitch so it doesn't accumulate water in the middle anymore and SE it and do the irrigation so we're going to bring in Top Soil all that stuff level everything out take all trying to take all the ruts out all that good stuff so because we're
seated we're on it's time the time table sensitive like we we can't prolong this and Linda Payton had already committed it like the proposal was s my company d The Proposal been
approved and everything the only thing we were supposed to do was contact the city when we were fin uh prior to our last game so we could you know work out a date in which fresh cut would start
refurbishing the field our bully one to started in December when we had them cou for warm days in the end of December cuz that's what I want to get in there and start grading it out so that way by the time by this
time late February early March we would have went in leveled it out see we went in leveled it out SE it lined it fertilized it and and air ra Mr when does your season start our season start uh primarily
Labor Day uh the weekend of Labor Day either the weekend of Labor Day or the weekend right after some no no no no no no not for the field the oh oh now I'm good I want to get my field
done yes sir okay so noted thank you well when will I hear something um give it until uh Monday till Monday yes okay okay all right y got till Monday thank you next we have Miss
Rene everybody I wanted to say that too that the items between 52 and 65 they're not here they're not on the sheet this paper goes from 52 straight to
65 what just oneid noid but after 525 all stuff you talking about oh okay um I wanted to ask a question about
um the meeting we had the counsel meeting we had where they all the police officers were here because this lady about her pension or something there whatever came of that um with the police
officer and the captain when because they did not assist the when asked the only so the only thing that I can so the only thing that I would offer is that the matter was sent to the
Atlantic County prosecutor's office um and there was an investigation performed and has been returned to the city and the city is now looking into but we can't it's a Personnel matter so until which time it's resolved and there's some type of resolution
that's brought before um the body and made public they can't can't really discuss anything else their employees so that that's the only thing I can give you that that's you know not Comal um anything on the
lights for Pleasant though you're asking for update on the lights no up have y'all done anything talk to anybody anything you have nothing to rec I don't have
anything Mr the last time we we had this discussion it came up like $1.2 million and that was the problem for the city to come up with that money uh to get this project done but hopefully we can somehow get some help but it's not like we're not trying like right now we can't
afford it to do it maybe we can chop it up and Peca it but we're definitely working on that okay um I have a question about that though um they're charging you to update
their equipment if I'm not mistaken is that correct what electric govern M they would but why would you have to update their equipment they provide the light you pay the bill and uh they supposed to keep their
equipment to give us satisfactory service and we're not getting that so why we have to pay to update their l i I would ready to speak for electric why they charge that's what they do it's a c they want to make money too well
they are making money they just got a 17% increase in electricity so why do we have to pay for them to update their equipment that's the question you don't have an answer that's fine I'm not the electric she write that letter to the well I did talk to him you should do
it though you and my board you represent my my w asking a question don't I I should call electric company Miss Brown yes I'll get an answer for you okay okay when will I
have um tomorrow that's got yeah I got you next we have uh Anna Miss Anna I just have two questions I know that um when they used to do the Bills they always told us they would say what
you know what was being paid what was this what was that why was that stop you know how you always said it was you know they had this bill you had the elect bill this was payroll this was that and now we don't even hear any of
the list well Miss Anna we have a new um person sitting in in the seat as a CFO so um you know that's the way Miss nunz does it but um maybe we can because it's
really you know we we are the citizens we should it shouldn't be you know to me is like not we're not being told something it's like a secret and that's not how we should be you know we should be it should be open and we should know what's going on with the city we'll
on I mean it's really a lot of people do come to you know we want to know it tells us too you know if you're getting something done you know lights or whatever someone's coming I mean it's really nice to know that not trying to be news but that's
just and yes thank you and then um are you going to pay like other streets because my street really needs to be paid I think it's going to collapse it's like really bad and I've called to ask if they could put some um laptops down
or something because there's so many holes Street oh Monch place it's a little Street off til Road I've called a couple times my neighbors called and they keep saying they're going to let us know they didn't
have it and they're supposed to be getting it it's a little team Street we don't ask for much I just you know I'm just trying to answer so we are going to pave some more streets actually we have a resolution I believe it's for second and fourth
street but so I I took notes for your street and so the mayor okay thank you very much see I was easy tonight thank next we have Jerry King good evening good evening just had a couple quick
questions um about the U heing of this gentleman as a poli administrator I'm always concerned when you have um conflict interest issues um we have someone as Mr Jones
had alluded to who's promoting that's so detrimental to the city and then they're going to become a part of the city Administration and it's almost like he was a Hired Gun to begin with who had no
no real concern about how this deal affected the citizens I mean we and I talked to several councilman and councilman Davenport I went over it and and I told him I said man the match just doesn't match and now we have this person coming
in as a part of our city Administration it seems like a severe conflict of interests um I always go back to my days as a paralal I'm always thinking about the legalities and I know sometimes we have people say oh oh yes it's it's it's not
illegal it's but there's that great area there's that great area and I don't know like you have a lot of people in this city that are really concerned about the welfare of this city I mean we're not millionaires you know we don't we don't have skyscrapers but we're concerned about
our city amen and and some of us have been you know worked at Civil Service like I had as a firefighter we played for the sports team we represent Pleasantville all over this country when I was in the military I Excell so much they wanted to know where I was from I would always say Pleasantville New
Jersey you never had heard of it have you we have some Dynamic individuals in this city and I and I and I hope that you guys that you ladies and gentlemen take us seriously because we have right now in this country we have uh we have a morality problem we have a
conscience problem we have some people on the national level in DC that are doing whatever they want to do and it makes me wonder because our enemies are watching this and it's almost like they're going to watch us collapse from within and they're going to
attack and as old say goes as the microcosm goes so goes the as the macrocosm so goes the microcosm I'm hoping and praying that we still have some people in this city that are concerned about doing things the right way and and I know there's pressure on I know you get pressure from all different
directions and you have all kind of shady things thrown at you and I know it's a lot I know your job is not easy but if it was easy anybody could do it you guys are not anybody you you are you are supposed to be the best of the best you are supposed to be like the exceptional ones that stand out and
stand up for us we pay high fees and high taxes in this city can I get an amen am and we don't ask for much just for things to be done legally level and just and just be
handled the right way and we know your job is tough but we we believe you guys are are up for the task so please represent us and help us and take us seriously because there's some people in Washington that don't take us seriously
and I'm telling you if we not careful we're going to have a civil war on our hands thank you and if y'all not careful y'all going to have a small one here next we have yes ma'am um I haven't been to a meeting in a long
time so please forgive me um so I'm kind of behind working day and night but anyway so I have some concern I've been in the community for a long time I'm not going to tell you cuz then you know how old I am but anyway I live on Adams Avenue Adams and Madison so uh Madison
Avenue between that and what Martin Luther King where I live I live before if you came down Adams and made it right I live before the senior citizen billing I don't know when the last time that street was paved but when it was we roller skated out there so that's out my
driver is really bad you all did pave half of Adams between Maine and Franklin would you all please PVE the whole street and then so whatever happened the way they paved it now there's a a
collection of water on the corner because I don't know I'm not you know I'm not I don't have that skill when it comes to construction whatever happen now the water collects on the corner and then there little
things we got a lot of people in Pleasantville you cannot get out the street like I have if I go to go to Franklin up Adams to make a left down Franklin Boulevard it's like I have to be in the middle of the street to see if
anything's coming it's so many I don't know what we can do about parking but it's too many cars you can't see how to get up and down the streets and you know people don't want to slow down they just kind of like run into you do you have
any plans for um traffic plans or anything cuz the town is overpopulated everybody soon as they got a car I was 16 I had a car the drive too so what can we do because and I feel bad for anybody kids trying to get across the street do
you all have any traffic plans um coming up with Town yes we do we have uh stop signs that going to be placed on Franklin Boulevard uh real soon real soon they'll be placed uh here within a couple weeks like three or four of them
to stop that Speedway so we have that already improved and hopefully the signs will be in and we can do that uh to slow that traffic down so that's definitely the work for how that done well thank you so much and if we could just get some Treet F and you know maybe I don't
know what you do because the streets are small you got cars on both Sid you got two-way traffic and like I said nobody wants to slow down what's your address 11 East Adams Avenue so yeah right I sit on a little corner and when they did uh
ZIP when they because they did pave in front of my house but whenever they paved it now it's like a big collection of water and all you know it's pretty bad sometime okay thank you so much next we havean
Moro good evening city council good evening mayor evening I just want to follow up what my colleagues have been talking about all evening and it's just transparency I think the discussion that we were having outside we I want you to
know that everyone in this room cares about the city we care about the welfare but more importantly we care about the future generations and that's why we're here after work trying to find a babysitter to take care of our kids to attend this meeting trying to F find
health care for for loved ones or sick ones that need that that aid while we're here trying to address the city's problems so I hope that you take us seriously and you take our open fleet for transparency even more seriously because we're not here to waste our time
we're not here to waste your time and so I'm speaking um about resolution 52 and there's a couple of questions that I hope you can answer in order to move this conversation about transparency F I'm just curious how many candidates
apply for this position I think you can give without as as it doesn't imped on the because this individual hasn't been hired yet has resolution and as long as it doesn't infring on the identities of the people who apply okay so if you just
want to give some general numbers that to you I believe it was five five people and how many of those five oh I'm sorry 31 31 and how many of those 31 were
interviewed no I'm sorry it was five five app five appli because um councilman was getting it mixed up with C so five applied and of those five who applied how many were interviewed was it four four
four and who was on the search committee we did a search committee uh JY League of municipalities that's what we put that out we have but who who are the individuals on the it was the uh was council president
it was myself it was um HR oh of course HR and um Council yourself mayor Ward city council president Thomas the HR Director of the city yes and that's it
uh the CFO for the for the CFO position2 okay so the appointment of yes yes that was it okay all right thank you so much which one okay CFO no but
I'm okay okay yes president I know that there was time seated for me I just have one more question if that's okay I know the three minute Mark was up but so my last question um city council president is does this candidate still
hold his position with burnhard capital the community L on position no he we were told no you were told okay thank you so much for your time thank you next we have Domingo
Rodriguez evening my name I'm here and uh to talk about what Mr Jones and Mr Moreno and a few other people talking and it's the appointment of uh pres2 the appointment of
Hamilton La so from what I understand Mr La is the Republican Hamilton Township committee man that we're bringing over to cville which I think is pretty much a democratic city um and we're bringing over a republican who had supported the
initiative to privatize our sewer system now anything that's been privatized all over the country whether it's the super system particularly the prison system it's all for prop so back in 2021 we
proposed uh $15 million payable over 29 years which worked out to a little over half a million uh dollars a year to to to give away for profit our water system uh ra hikes with go through
the you know it would be crazy I think Mr Jones mentioned Mr the other gentleman 133% making hikes going up in cities um this was defeated in quite a other big cities cities much bigger than Pleasantville um and for the people of
doville we pay high property taxes my property tax bill was over $6,600 last year my neighbors and FC and Northfield pay a lot less but we're a school district and I don't mind paying for it but I want some quality of life I also want to know that my taxes aren't going
to go up because my sewer system is being sold out to the highest bid for profit because that's what that's all about and when we're bringing on someone from a republican committee to come on to pres Bill and be our business administrator I don't think it's in the best interest of the citizens of pleas
bill and I need everyone to know that I've never been to a meeting before but I got to start becoming more vocal about things like this um and I just want you to know so going forward I'll see what happens and I'll be paying a lot of attention and I'm about to every time and age that's going to open up a lot of
time for me to uh get people out here and get people uh interested in what's going on and make our voices H and comeing election day that's why we make our voice in certain the so hopefully you guys do the right thing thank you for your time thank you
good evening everyone I want to start off with I love the people coming out and I hope that you come out April 1st to the next planning board meeting April 1st is
April Fool's Day and that's when the city are going to try to make fools out of residence Pleasantville if you don't know I've been talking about it and talking about it they're getting ready to bring this dump here to Pleasantville
so come out in fact I don't even think you can come out because they don't want it in public they're hiding that and from what's going on from what I gather the mayor is saying it's going to
happen she said it's going to happen now if it's going to happen why didn't she say that when she was at the PCC meeting or you got going to her meeting she never mentioned not one time about this transfer station on don't not one
time and it's a disgrace but I tell you what when it if it does happen which I hope it doesn't believe me the petition is already out as done it will be a
recall it will be a recall if you br a dump in this town oh yeah and not only her um M isn't here she also voted for this
dunk and now she wants to run for a you kidding me no one in this town better not vote for Joan or this County because you take and vote forway we're not going to talk about um Council woman because
she's not here that's fine but anyone who would vote for a dump or a transfer station doesn't deserve a vote anywhere and you can say whatever you want man I'm ridiculous I'm not
ridiculous I'm telling the truth and if I'm not telling the truth you tell the people what's going to happen April 3 or or is that dump still in effect and is are we going to have a dump being president when this meeting is over all of you ask her if this is going to
happen and I hope all of you come out April the 1st and let these people know we're not fools thank you what do you say to thatz excuse me I just can't believe you David you
each time that I see you it's nothing but trouble and it's it's okay with me but don't ever ever put words in my mouth you have not heard me say one time that anything was coming here the transfer station or anything else I
never said that had started I never said you I never said no you said that I said that you said that I said that it's coming question mayor mayor yes that's no that's not it I'm answering the

swepson yes Thomas yes motion approved so at this time I'm going to ask um Mr lws first off I want to say congratulations and if you have anything to say you know
okay you have anything I just want to thank you all and thank you and this is um being a CFO is not an easy job but one thing that I hear um in the council meetings is folks
concerned about their tax rate and we'll do the best that we can to make sure that we keep our spending that's uh livable and level for the city residents and for council's um approval so I just want to
thank you all after we're done um mayor good evening everyone thank you for coming out I just want to say to everyone that's here today that it wasn't easy picking the CFO or the um
the uh business administrator and the decision when I saw and I have to be very honest with you and Mr law knows I'm telling the truth about this not to hurt your feelings or anything but when I saw that he was one of the applicants I would I just thought you know that was
just very very nervy you know of him to apply it was between him he applied and we gave him an interview it was between him and another person that would have been second qualified but uh we which we
chose not to do but that was a bigger story than um M with Mr laws he was the best applicant he he just interviewed very well we discussed some of the things that you talked about today as far as you know the party affiliate we talked about the things
that we wanted to do for the city we talked about the a concession there and DEP you know so it was it did it wasn't an easy easy decision so when we got with the Comm you know when we tallied everything up everyone agreed that it was the best applicant that we had for
the position that we needed and I just want you all to know that the next thing I want you to put in your mind is about the transfer station the transfer station has my name written all over it because of a couple of people that just thinks that that's the way that it was
that maybe really doesn't even understand the transfer station happened before I was here before I got here that and once that was approved you can't disapprove it you know whether I wanted it or not the transfer station is here
transfer station the transfer station is here what we're voting on there's nothing there's nothing that we can do to just take that away what we're voting on April 1st with the planning and development I mean excuse me not
