I don't belong to the township committee. Elsa and I are here from Spring Meadow as representatives of Spring Meadow. And your husband made us feel like a million dollars. Came down and he welcomed us every time
we walked in and then we became good friends. And he's just a wonderful, warm, wonderful man. And he's from I have a son and his sons went to the
same high school as Tom did. Love that. And he made us feel like very Thank you. Anyone else? I see Tom Dutch from the county is here. Tom, welcome.
Good to see you. Hey, Tom. How are you? >> Thank you, Mr. Mayor, members of the council. My name is Thomas Dutch. I'm the county administrator. Uh, today I come here to speak of Tom Man, my friend. A very long time ago, I relocated from the city of Garfield to
the township of White. difficult move for me, great community, but I enjoyed my life in I came here because of the educational opportunities and the beautiful lifestyle that you enjoyed. One of the first people I met and he became a quick and fast friend
was Tom Manigan. Tom Manigan was warm. He was welcoming. We had four kids, not as many as them, but we had four children and uh you know, we were we were looking to fit in and we fit in. Thankfully, he became a friend. Uh some of you on
the administration have become fast friends. Uh I I I'm honored to serve, you know, the county now. Um honored to live in Woff, honored to be part of the community, honored to be recognized and thrilled to be here tonight to hear you
recognize a wonderful man who made such a difference in so many people's lives. Tom Madigan was uh he was colorful. Uh he was um He said what he wanted to say. He texted me whenever he didn't like something that was happening at the
county. Uh if he really didn't like it, he would call me once. He even showed up at my house. But that's a good thing. That showed that his heart was here in Whiteoff. He was always protecting White and what he believed in. And for that, I respect
him. I thank you so much as a member of the community for honoring a terrific man. Thank you. >> Thanks for joining us tonight. very much. Anyone else wishes anything? >> Yeah, we can talk. Yeah, >> let's all sit down.
>> Pete, pull your mic. >> We've had several meetings where share a lot of stories about Tom and uh Tom was just not only a friend but he was a mentor and
just quick two stories we shared a lot of stories the last few years when I first got on the township committee I came up I had so many ideas they're like stop you got to stop like this is how we're doing things but uh one thing that I did bring and I had uh Tom support and
we're here was the military tribute banner which I just handed over to Mary of Tom that's father on there >> his grandfather on there so um Tom thought it was a great idea every three
or four years are retired then you have to purchase another one so able to back over there another just really story was every time Tom went to Joseph Bank, I got you a
tie. >> Some of them were a little questionable, but I am wearing one tonight. It's a Santa one. So, I do I got the tie. You know, we love shopping at Joseph a bank, especially in the tie clearance section. Probably
got this and the red with the Christmas gifts on it. >> January. Actually, I did. Yeah, probably. It was like 50 50. But, uh, we do miss Tom up here a lot.
And I'll tell you one thing, just last week, this week, and I know that next week tough time with the holidays and everything, but there's a huge, huge that Santa Claus coming into every bar, every house in town. He just not even come to the restaurants and the
everywhere. He went to people's houses. So it's a huge void and I know why is really really missing that really really missed Tom. So trying to get my stomach up there to over it. So if you have the Santa outfit I'm feeling right into it.
We missed out. Anyone else? I was gonna say something later. >> I don't want to be redundant. I spoke quite a bit and >> Oh, sure.
>> Sorry. >> And I guess I don't know if I said this after meeting or not, but probably one of the biggest honors of my life was being the at the funeral. It really was. meant so
much to me. >> I knew Tom for over 30 years. We actually started out as fastion. I know that he was was really happy when the military close to
one funny story. So we have relative church and I go to I went to Tom and I said, "Tom, I know you're listen to, you know, keep his memory in our
hearts and Mayor said, you know, at some point there'll probably be something else that you might have for obvious, but we're here now. Um, and Tom ties into
I was going to say later, part of which um we had a busy year in town this year and I'm you know with with a lot of things um notwithstanding the loss of Tom Madigan. We had a very busy year this year and um
uh I just I have a list of things here that we did. I'm just going to hit on them later after the meeting at the end of the meeting under my report. But Tom and I were sidekicks and every these things, we would have bounced off of each other. And that's what we did. We
hung out at a lot of bars and cigar shop and but we talked about the things that are on the list that I'm not going to read now. Okay? But that's the kind of friend and confidant that Tom was to me. Um and uh I I I miss it already and I'm
going to miss it as the years go forward. I really really am. But I just I had to say that because he was I joked with him. I said, you the unofficial policy committee here in town, you know. So, but um we do that. Oh, you I said unofficial.
So, um but having said that, um Tom, there are things Tom did that no people knew what he did, but he just did it quietly behind the scenes. And one of them was scholarships and helping high school seniors get into colleges. and he
was good at and he had connections all over because well he had seven kids so he had a lot to do with colleges and admissions departments and he got to know um he got to know the the the program as it were and but that's something that was never publicized it's
just if you knew him you knew what he did the other was his work he was always very proud of his friendship with father father and the well that they built over in Nigeria somewhere to provide fresh water for a um for a a town a little
village over in Nigeria somewhere and he was always very proud of that and that was these are just things that was through the rotary but it was always just things that he did um so and I don't want I don't want to be late with this but two more things he always packed his car
that we heard 100 times a week but anyway he reminded us he was important and the other thing is Aby's Diner is going to reopen probably two weeks and there's talk that they're going to name a play over there the mag which would I'm trying to get my input
in it but you know that would be great if they did that because he spent a lot of time there too >> a tower and a pancakes >> no silver dollar pancakes with sausage so anyway >> absolutely
>> I came to for a while, but I never worked with them in the capacity that I did last year. Um, and one thing that was very frustrating with him was that we could swabble and he
could turn the corner and come back like my husband. And I'm the type of person that needs closure and he's not that type. So, he uh heave himself just like my husband does and we moved on. So, that was very nice because he was the
type of person that didn't grudges. Um he was, you know, if I said something or he said something, he was, you know, very spiritual guy and um steadfast. And last year when I was um ill, he gave me something very important to me and he wrote me a
very nice card and I won't forget that. Um and I carry with me every day. Um so he was a special man. He will not be forgotten. Everything we do, it's always Tom would have said Tom would have sat here. So he is not
forgotten. He will not be forgotten. Um the one thing we will miss is the extension of Tomen to us. Anyone else? Okay, we have the proclamation
which we would like to present to Mary. >> Take a few pictures with the picture. >> Or we could >> a little weird. >> Yeah, there's an extra picture on the back. >> Yeah, >> that's another picture. Come on up. Come on up here,
guys. Come over here. All right, the photo. >> Thank you. Okay. >> No, but he never really smile. grandfather. >> Okay.
Yeah. >> Okay. Thank you. Thank you. You're welcome. >> Okay. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I'm just saying.
>> Okay. Thank you. Thanks for stopping. Okay, let's let's do So uh up items on the agenda. Um we are endorsing CDBG uh CDBG

>> I do not. >> Okay. You've been to a bunch of events in the last >> two weeks. Yeah, I thought the events were great. County was fantastic. >> You don't know where you think we go around. We all say that we've all been
to the same events in the last two weeks. I'm sure we're all on that. I guess I'll let that up to the mayor at all. But I just want to give a quick update. Police committee meet last week. Our um
we we're ongoing for our police headquarters renovation. Um we're getting almost to the finish line there. Got a few more months to go. I think it's going to be a great addition to the town. something that's probably needed to be done years ago, but it will
definitely benefit the residents of Blackoff, the safety of the residents of Blackoff and the safety of our police officers here. So, looking forward to our ongoing discussions in the next few months and that coming through. And lastly, I just want to wish everyone a
merry Christmas, happy I'll leave all they do this to me all the time. I'm not going to mention the events. I'm gonna leave them to know me well. What I would like to say for the fire department, this is important. So fire departments
in the month of November totaling 884 hours to date64. Needless to say, the hours and the time put in by fire department. We got real lucky kind of beat
a lot faster. Other than that, Merry Christmas, happy to see you on the first holiday. On December 10th, we have the planning board. township attorney Mr. Becker reviewed
the mediation agreement for fair share housing which required us to do some mediation to the fourth round. Um and that was to be more detailed. It was to increase uh development potential and to permit an additional
unit to our planning board and um agreed to it. We also reviewed an application for vinyl fencing which we'll hear at the next meeting and once again the regency
center which is the development shopping center as to carry the application to a future date which I think they're going to special it was a really nice meeting who is on the environment in
beach discussed the danger of micro nanopastics which are types of solid waste plutants which we inhale and we don't really realize it Um, one thing that he said as we were drinking water from the water
bottle was a one liter plastic bottle of soda or water has 240,000 nanopastics in it. And every time you shake it or we leave it in the hot car, it's even more. So we continuously inhale things and it
mission is to have different municipalities or construction workers to kind of contain their um containments. They contain you knowing >> so that was a topic yesterday because
you know when they're doing construction they're doing it in the air and it so far in New Jersey 22 out of 164 municipalities have adopted the ordinance and they're trying to do it on a state
level as well. Um, lastly, Justin Mader did a really nice presentation. His project was to do was to do the stuff. So, he visited all the restaurants and kind of interviewed them to see if
they, you know, provide plastic forks and knives and napkins and whatnot with customers like it. So, you know, waste and it saves money for the restaurant owner. Um, and he made these signs for
the restaurants to put on the counter. Um, for examp they're going to start asking, "Would you like this?" And for anybody who's participating, they have a window decal that they can put on show.
But he did a really nice job. So everybody else wish Okay. Um we all attended the Toys train um event last Saturday and it was a was like a
seven car train and we filled up the one car. We all attended the minor lane which was last night which was cold but enthusiastic. It was a very nice event actually and um a week ago we attended the Santa's arrival and
lighting out front wall. Um, just quick and I I can cover this at the signing which is where it usually happens but oh the hope ribbon cut had the ribbon cut. Thank you. Hope Christian had the ribbon cutting of it third home in Wolf
on Sec um which we all attended and it was very well attended and it's a very nice home and they do wonderful wonderful work. It's right next to across from the second school in second town and like I said this is the third home that they have in white and it's
the fifth home in white book in private homes um that we have for developmentally disabled persons so we are leading the way I think in white book and providing for homes for developmentally disabled persons and um
and hope does a great job Um, this will be my last mayor as meeting as presiding here as mayor. And I only say that because we had a very busy year this year. And I'm just going to run
through a quick quick list. Um, we had significant retirements. We had our tax assessor retire. We had our planning and zoning administrator retire. We had Richie from the from DPW is retiring the end of the year. Um and
we was busy replacing all of them. Um we had um we did some some reasonzoning in town which I think will work out quite well and it all takes time and uh we we settled with fair share housing. We had
other uh mediation sessions. Um we have a new uh health care provider in the state within the state health benefits plan. Um uh we obviously the most significant change we had was the loss of Tom Mig and my point in saying all this it's
been a busy busy year but I really appreciate really everyone doing their part and working in a collegial team effort because we got a lot done guys let me tell you we really did and I want to just thank everybody and That's what I wanted to say. Um, oh,
I missed uh Matt and I last week um attended a mayor's breakfast hosted by County Executive Jimmy Desco and it was >> we waited for Tom to leave before we said that. >> Exactly.
That's all I That's all I have now. >> Okay, you >> real fast. Uh you mentioned uh settling with fair share housing. We did settle went on the record with the program judge on Monday with our settlement on our housing element and fair share plan.
Uh we did adjust a couple properties to do so but relatively speaking uh compared to some other communities. It was fairly minor and uh we've got that set. There are things we need to do, clean up some things with the memor uh this year and the order from the
judge and then next year we have to amend our ordinance and and um we'll take care of that. But that's the biggest hurdle. We've settled with them on our housing plan and that's a big step in moving forward with them. That's all I have tonight. >> Thank you Dave. Okay.
I thank all of you because everyone really you know I mean from you know all our departments who are responsible from from the assessor's office to the uh the finance office, Matt's office,
NY's office. Obviously, we're really we got a lot done. Okay, now I said this was my last meeting and it's going to end probably a little more than I thought because I'm going to turn the G over to a couple of let's say mayors in training.
