HEARINGS:
Release /Reduction of Performance Guarantee - Ticetown Hills
Jonathan Heilbrunn: On behalf of the applicant Ticetown Hills, Mr. Iglesias has advised me that his office has issued a new report, that I saw very briefly as I walked through the door and has not yet reached my office, in which he has recommended that the bond not be released until certain items be completed by the builder. I have not had the opportunity to review the report, but I am sure that this Council will be significantly influenced by his report and therefore, I ask that this matter be adjourned until a date in August so that we have an opportunity to review and respond to it. I would ask that it be done without the requirements of further notice and publication, so that if any member of the public is here on that application they can be advised as to what the new date will be.
Vice-President Butler: Can the Clerk give us a date?
Deputy Clerk Ward: August 28, 2000.
Motion
to table till August 28, 2000 without further publication or notice by Councilman

LIQUOR LICENSE HEARINGS
License #1209-33-026-004 Birch Hill t/a Stingrays
Resolution #363 DENIED
WHEREAS, the Township of Old Bridge adopted a resolution on June 28, 1999 renewing the liquor license of Birch Hill t/a Stingrays, which contained the condition that all fire code violation penalties due on licensed premises be paid on or before the renewal date of June 30, 2000; and
WHEREAS, Birch Hill, Inc., t/a Stingrays, has filed a renewal application with the Township of Old Bridge for the 2000-2001 licensing term and has paid the appropriate fees; and
WHEREAS, the liquor license holder, Birch Hill, Inc., t/a Stingrays, has filed an application with the Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control to remove the said condition; and
WHEREAS, the said hearing on the challenge to the prior condition is scheduled to be heard in July 2000; and
WHEREAS, other proceedings are being undertaken to remove the unpaid fire district fines; and
WHEREAS, it would be efficient to extend the deadline for the payment of the fire district fines for an additional year.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Township Council of the Township of Old Bridge, County of Middlesex, State of New Jersey, that the condition of the liquor license requiring payment of outstanding fire fines is hereby amended to set a new deadline for satisfaction of those fines for June 30, 2001. Should the fire district fines not be paid by that date, revocation of the liquor license will be considered.

AYES: Councilmen Cucchiara, Greene, Hoff, Redmond, Testino, Vice-President Butler.
NAYS: Councilman Sohor
Absent: Councilwoman Marinaccio, President Maher
Prior to the roll call vote the following discussion took place.
Councilman Redmond: There are conditions here and I am asking if they are in agreement with these conditions?
Deputy Clerk Ward: Yes, they are in agreement.
Councilman Testino: I have another question. Do the police have any recommendations based on the recent problems that this one club has had?
Vice-President Butler: I understand that the Clerk's office spoke with the police department earlier today and they did not have any problems with the license renewal.
Councilman Greene: Councilman Redmond just mentioned that there were conditions on the license, I don't see that in my packet.
Deputy Clerk Ward: The conditions states that a new deadline date for payment of the Fire District fines. The new deadline is June 30, 2001, they are giving them an extension to pay the fines.
Councilman Greene: When I was on the Council last year this came up and it has not been paid yet so I tell you right now that I will vote against this renewal.
Councilman Hoff: Is there an outstanding balance of monies due the township as Mr. Greene stipulates?
Attorney Ruggierio: Last year Councilman Cucchiara brought up the fact that the fire district, not the township itself, was owed about $15,000 in fire fines that had been outstanding for many, many years and apparently, they had determined that they would not pursue those fines. He asked us to research it and we determined that there were some avenues that we could pursue and once we made a legal determination that these fines were justified, we recommended to the Council that they put a condition on the license last year, that when this comes up for renewal on June 30, 2000, that there would not be a renewal if these fines were not paid. There was an application made to the ABC to remove that condition, which has not yet been heard and in fact is scheduled for trial in July. I will also give you a "footnote" about something else that is going on in connection with this. My recommendation was that the resolution that I gave to the Clerk, basically extending this obligation to pay the $15,000 to 2001, be passed by the Council so that we don't annoy the Administrative Law Judge in preempting his jurisdiction. Frankly, before we became aggressive about helping the fire district collect its fines as Councilman Cucchiara's suggestion, it kind of sat around for many years. That is my recommendation to you.
With regard to the "footnote", one of Mr. Heilbrunn's clients wants to put a tennis facility at that location and as part of the deal, because there are back taxes on the property that have to be cleared up, so when I heard of the deal, we made it clear to Mr. Heilbrunn that we were going to recommend against the installment payment of taxes unless there was also an agreement to pay the $15,000 in fire district fines. The net result was that Mr. Heilbrunn's client has agreed to pay those fines and so by the time we get to the July hearing, we will have an understanding. So all I am saying to you is that I think we should defer this matter until the next renewal period and by then I think it will be resolved by one of these means.
Vice President Butler: Are you saying we should take this off for the time being?
Attorney Ruggierio: No, actually I think the idea is to renew the license, but the question was when it came up for renewal this time you were going to ask if the fines were paid or not and because of certain circumstances the Administrative Law Judge carried this matter into July and I just don't want to "thumb my nose" at the Administrative Law Judge and say we are going to revoke the license nevertheless.
Vice-President Butler: So you think we should go ahead and renew the license?
Attorney Ruggierio: Yes, and we are still sticking with the conditions whether they are enforceable or not, but the condition would apply by next June 30th.
Councilman Greene: I just would like to ask the attorney if there was any possibility that we could force Birch Hill to make this fire payment in installments just like you make in the payment of taxes?
Attorney Ruggierio: Mr. Heilbrunn's client who is apparently making this deal with Birch Hill is absolutely committed to making installment payments on these fines.
Councilman Greene: And this will start sometime after June 30th of this year?
Attorney Ruggierio: It won't start until Heilbrunn's client gets an approval from our local board. Now, if they don't get their approval, which I suspect is unlikely, then we fall back on the original condition.
Councilman Greene: Based on these negotiations that Heilbrunn is making with you or the township, it is anticipated that the $15,000 will be paid off by June 30, 2001?
Attorney Ruggierio: I think that all of these payments will be made over a number of years probably about five.
Councilman Greene: I just have a concern with this. It feels like you just want this because this came up this time last year and absolutely no effort was made on his part to pay the money and he has a business that is currently operating there and since it is an on-going business he should have made some effort to not only pay this fine, but to pay his real estate taxes.
Attorney Ruggierio: You are not wrong, but it is well known that you cannot hold up a liquor license based on non-payment of taxes. Illogical as that may sound, only non-payment of sales taxes can prevent the license from being issued. There is clear case law that we cannot do this based on the premise of non-payment of fines or taxes.
Councilman Redmond: My question is the Council placed a condition on this license in June of 1999, and the fine was to be paid by June 30, 2000, now they are going to court to have this condition removed is this correct?
Attorney Ruggierio: They have a right to go to the ABC that flips it over to Administrative Court.
Councilman Redmond: You are saying we cannot hold up the license, so why did we put a condition on it?
Attorney Ruggierio: Well maybe yes, maybe no. As I told Mr. Greene, it is clear that you cannot hold-up a license because of non-payment of taxes. You are permitted to place conditions on the license that are related to health, safety and welfare and arguably you make this fire district fines stick, but if you were going to bet a lot of money on it, I would advise against it.
Ultimately, we are going to pursue this and maybe the mere fact that we pursue it will make it so expensive and annoying to Birch Hill that they will decide that they should pay. I am not saying we have a frivolous case, but there are some issues about the enforceability of these fire fines.
However, in spite of all that I have this contact with Mr. Heilbrunn who got his client to agree to make the installment payments of the fire fines along with the tax installments, it will be paid over a number of years, but it seems like a reasonable way to resolve the issue.
Mayor Cannon: Bill, can this matter even go before the Zoning Board before the taxes are paid?
Attorney Ruggierio: That is right, I am opting from memory but Mr. Hyland the Zoning Board attorney, rendered an opinion that theoretically under the land use law you could appear before the board as long as you paid the taxes when and if you got an approval.
Councilman Testino: I would like to change that, no other township does that.
Attorney Ruggierio: That is the land use law, but our ordinances do not seem to say that and that was not my interpretation. So, the bottom line was that subject to this agreement to pay the taxes contingent upon the approval by this applicant, Mr. Heilbrunn decided that this was something that was possible under the land use law.
Councilman Cucchiara: If we can get it faster this way then I am agreeable, but we do have a lien on that property.
Attorney Ruggierio: I would be happy to share with you a legal memorandum that I wrote and I thought I gave it to you before. What I remember is that there is a little known provision in the laws of New Jersey that you do not make an inquiry to the seller of the property about fire district fines, if the purchaser does not make that inquiry then the fines can carry over and I am not sure that they would achieve lien status, but they can be enforced against both the seller and the purchaser of the property. It actually surprised me because I have been at many real estate settlements and I have never seen an inquiry to a fire district regarding such a thing.
On the other hand, Mr. Braslow agreed with our analysis. I am not sure that I agree with Mr. Cucchiara that there is a lien, but there is some type of enforceable right against the current owners of the property.
Councilman Hoff: I wonder why we are even talking about any real estate problems or Heilbrunn's thing or a tennis court. We are here to do an application for renewal of a liquor license under ABC laws. I did not know that there was still an outstanding commitment that had not been honored since last year. The other matters do not pertain; all we have to deal with is the liquor license and the ABC, and I don't see why we are getting off on these things.
Attorney Ruggierio: The way this started is that Mr. Cucchiara brought these fines to my attention, up to that point the fire district had not been that diligent about pursuing those fines and with relatively good reason because there was a whole confusing series of transfers in terms of ownership that we had to research. When we were able to tell the Council that we thought the fines could be enforceable then the question came up as to whether we could condition the renewal of the liquor license on it. Actually, Mr. Cucchiara had asked if we could deny the liquor license renewal based on their failure to pay the fines and I recognized that there were ABC laws that were implicated by this and rather than tell you no you cannot do that, what we did was postpone the decision till June 30, 2000, when the condition of the next renewal was contingent upon payment of the fines.
Councilman Hoff: Did they agree to this?
Attorney Ruggierio: No, they did not agree. In fact they filed an appeal with the ABC and that appeal is pending and all I am saying is that I don't think we should deny the liquor license based on the appeal. We should merely postpone until the court makes a decision.
Councilman Hoff: I don't think we should be a collection agency for the fire department, they should go to court on their own.
Attorney Ruggierio: Actually, Mr. Braslow stated that if it comes to that, will initiate another law suit to collect these fines. There is another avenue for them to pursue if we don't get it this way, but it looks like everything is coming together for us to get these fines and that is why I would recommend this action of postponing it another year.
Councilman Testino: Postponing what another year?
Attorney Ruggierio: Making the deadline for payment of the fire district fines June 30, 2001.
Councilman Testino: Since the subject came up, I am just asking on the side that I would like to make sure that our ordinances require that the taxes be paid before the Zoning Board takes up that application. I have not been able to go in front of one board in all of Middlesex or Monmouth Counties where that is not required. You have to have a certification from the tax collector's office before you can even get the application filed.
Attorney Ruggierio: I will get you a report.
Mayor Cannon: I am very concerned, I only know what I read in the newspaper and I cannot believe that the police are not going after the license.
Attorney Ruggierio: Well, probably after there is a level of investigation, there can be a proceeding to reverse the liquor license.
Councilman Testino: That was not a liquor related function, that was a club they rented out one of their rooms.
Vice-President Butler: They rented out the pool to the club.
Councilman Testino: I do not make light of any of your concerns, I agree.
Councilman Cucchiara: Bill, since I am involved with the fire district do I have a problem with this vote?
Attorney Ruggierio: No, I would not think that you had a conflict of interest.
Councilman Sohor: A quick question for the attorney, can we really in effect by having voted no on this application, attempting to enforce the provisions from last year's renewal and since the renewal is under appeal, are not we really prevented from enforcing it during the penancy of the appeal?
Attorney Ruggierio: What will happen is that they will get an extension from the ABC and they will also appeal this action and it will all be wrapped together.

Attorney Ruggierio: Yes, I would say.
Councilman Sohor: They could get a clean license from the ABC.
Councilman Testino: I am going to ask the acting chair to move back to that matter and I will move it with the conditions.

Prior to the roll call vote the following discussion took place.
Councilman Hoff: What are we voting on?
Mayor Cannon: This is just a change for lighting equipment on the grid. It is just amending what you did last week.
DISCUSSION ORDINANCE
DO-1 Ordinance Amendment - Deck Variance
Councilman Sohor: In reading through this Ordinance, I would like to suggest that we make one modification. In the fifth section of the Ordinance, towards the end, there is a sentence that reads "for wood decks higher than two feet, the side and rear yard shall be increased two feet for each additional vertical foot above the initial two foot provisional height". I would like to have that section "for two feet for each additional vertical foot" be amended to state "for each
additional foot or part thereof", so we don't end up with a situation where people go and build these decks 2feet 11inches and stay within the Ordinance regulations and are not required the additional setback.
Vice-President Butler: Is that agreeable to everyone?
Councilman Greene: On this Ordinance and this one which I think is a little more technical, I think that we should have a comment by somebody on the Planning Board before we start making amendments. I don't know that I have the expertise to vote on this.
Mayor Cannon: These were drawn up by Mr. Norman the Planning Board Attorney in conjunction with Mr. Rizzo. It was to help reduce the number of residents appearing before the
Zoning Board for variances. That was the purpose of this amendment. I believe that the Zoning Board may have even written some commentaries to that effect. And with regard to the tree removal everyone wants to save trees and so Mr. Koehler worked with Sam Rizzo and Mr. Norman to put these amendments into the ordinances.
Councilman Greene: I understand the intent of both of these, but if I hear correct Councilman Sohor making an amendment on this. I would have difficulty with that unless someone from the Planning Board came up and commented on that.
Vice-President Butler: We have the chairman here, Mr. George Koehler. George, would you come forward?
George Koehler: I am the chairman of the Planning Board and there is no problem here at all. I think Mr. Sohor's recommendation is an excellent suggestion. I think that he did point out a potential loophole.
DO-2 Ordinance Amendment - Tree Removal Protection
Councilman Sohor: With regard to the tree ordinance, Section 4, Penalty Provisions, it provides for two types of penalties, one is a penalty of $5000 cash fine or in lieu of monetary payment, applicant may submit a compensatory tree replacement plan. I am not comfortable with that because one of the things that this does is takes a very objective fine or dollar amount and replaces it with something that is very subjective at someone else's discretion. I see an opportunity here for someone who has violated the law to find someway to finagle a way around a monetary penalty and do something that maybe relatively cheap for them and they have a couple of years in which to do it. I would take that section out with the provisions for "in lieu of
dollar penalty". I think the dollar penalty is much stricter and is more of a deterrent to someone for their own convenience going around the law. If you have where you can do the thing wrong and then find someway to fix it a couple of years down the road does not have the same type of deterrent effect. We have seen all too often, where developers in the township have made promises and years later those problems come back before this Council and our hands are tied because so much time has passed and we have no way to enforce it.
Vice-President Butler: So your recommendation is that you want to remove "in lieu of the dollar penalty"?
Councilman Sohor: Yes, and leave just the $5000 penalty.
Vice-President Butler: Any objections by the Council?
DO-3 Department Head Salaries
