PRESENTATION

Deputy Chief Tom Hart & Firefighter Robert McDonough for last year's fire at 100 Ticetown Rd

Mayor Cannon: Last year at about this time we had a fire at 100 Ticetown Road, it was early in the morning and these two members put their lives at risk by entering the building to try and rescue residents.

Mayor Cannon presented plaques which reads:

In recognition of the extraordinary job that you did on November 2, 2000 at the fire at 100 Ticetown Road, putting your own life at risk to take care of the residents of this community is most commendable. This award is presented with heartfelt appreciation on behalf of the Township of Old Bridge. Mayor Barbara Cannon and the Township Council.

Mayor Cannon: Thank you both so much. We must remember these volunteers, they have other jobs. They do a wonderful job protecting us.

Preliminary Public Comments

Anthony Cutrone: I would like to know if there is a way for the township to help us out with utilizing the gym space in the school for basketball? We do not have enough space. We are here asking for the township to give us a Saturday. We will have to refund the fees if you don't. Can you find it in the budget to give us a Saturday?

Mayor Cannon: We think that it is doable for the period from now until the end December, assuming they have the space available on Saturdays.

Mr. Cutrone: We may not need all the Saturdays.

Mayor Cannon: You will have to get together with Tom Badcock to work out the times.

Mr. Cutrone: Last year the Old Bridge Basketball Association received $3,500.00 for 800 kids, which worked out to $4.00 a kid. The Old Bridge Youth Athletic Association received $700.00, which came out to about $23.00 a kid. There is a big variance there. It should be equal. I hope that the grant money will be there next year.

Mayor Cannon: We will need cooperation from the council.

Councilman Testino: What would you like?

Mayor Cannon: Tom is saying that it would cost about $800.00 for the time from now until December.

Mr. Shah: When we prepared the budget, the amount appropriated was the amount actually spent last year. So additional money will have to be put in the budget and the budget is in the hands of the council.

Councilman Redmond: Do you need an emergency appropriation?

Mr. Shah: No, when you finally adopt the budget you will have to increase the appropriation in the recreation department. We will give you the number when Tom works out the hours and the amount. I think at the last budget meeting we talked about an adjustment of 6 to 8 thousand dollars.

Councilman Redmond: This goes to the Board of Education.

Mr. Shah: It goes to a private company, a janitor service. In order for the building to be open they need to have janitors there.

Councilman Redmond: Remind them that they are getting $27,000.00 worth of free ice time.

Councilman Hoff: Why is there such a difference in the amount of money per child?

Mr. Badcock: The least amount of money that we give is $500.00. Obviously we can't give an organization with 2000 kids that much money per kid or we would go bankrupt.

Councilman Hoff: Why does one kid get $22.00 and another $4.00?

Mr. Badcock: It is not per kid, it is per organization.

Mr. Cutrone: Is the money going to be there?

President Maher: Yes.

Virginia Estwanick: When the curbing was replaced in Madison Park, they did a lousy job and when they re-seeded they re-seeded with 100% crabgrass. I have brought pictures to show you. I spent three days pulling the crabgrass out and planting grass seed. There are elderly widows that will not be able to do this. What can the township do about this? Doesn't the bid specify that the contractors have to put the landscaping back the way it was?

President Maher: Yes.

Mayor Cannon: It was suppose to be put back the way it was.

President Maher: I would like a report on this from Public Works.

Carol Borbely: I live on Werner Court and am adjacent to two construction sites. They have model homes that they are putting in and they were not suppose to be started because fees were not paid and plans were not signed. I contacted the township today and I understand that with particular developer there were other times that this happened. Private citizens have to have their fees and permits before they can start working, why don't major developers in this township have to follow the rules and even when they complain about it they are not penalized.

President Maher: What two subdivisions are you talking about?

Ms. Borbely: Matchaponix Estates and the one behind it.

President Maher: How did you find out that they didn't pay for their building permits?

Ms. Borbely: I came down to the township.

Mayor Cannon: We will check this out.

Nelson Iglesias: We shut them down.

President Maher: Are we fining them?

Mr. Iglesias: There will be a stop order issued.

President Maher: I want this to be followed up on.

Kevin Calogera: Is our emergency response on a county level? New York sent out a questionnaire to retired police for them to write down expertise and they have tapped the wealth of the community. I think that we have a lot people with diverse backgrounds in medical, chemistry, law enforcement that we may want to build a database on that.

Councilman Sohor: On Thursday, in the Bush Center there is going to be a LEPC meeting and you may want to attend and bring this to their attention.

Mr. Calogera: People need to have information in their homes about numbers to call and if we are organized. I think people need to be reassured that these things are being taken care of.

Mayor Cannon: I just did a program on this before the council meeting started. I want to assure everyone that the township is very well organized. I think Kevin's suggestion has merit and we will look into it.

Barbara York: I have seen in the township the roads that contractors have opened up and are not replaced properly. This is a problem throughout the whole township.

Councilman Hoff: We have an ordinance that deals with this, it is up to residents to bring this to our attention at the time that this is going on. If someone opens up a street it should be replaced better than before it was opened.

Ms. York: We need to do something about Charles Street. I think those people deserve it.

Councilman Greene: The feedback that I have on this program is satisfaction. The residents that took part in it are very happy. A lot of residents have specifically mentioned the good work that Mr. Sumal has done working with the residents. I would like to thank you on behalf of the residents.

Councilman Hoff: This will be on the tax bill.

Mr. Shah: The amount of assessment will be added to the tax bill, it is a lien on the property.

AYES: Councilmen Butler, Greene, Redmond, Sohor, Testino, Councilwoman Hegarty, President Maher.

NAYS: None.

ABSENT: Councilman Cucchiara.

NO PARTICIPATION: Councilman Hoff.

Comments

Ms. Shepler: I did not realize that you separated C7 out from the resolutions, the sidebars that I am hearing is that you are considering doing this as a first reading ordinance. The statute does not require an ordinance, merely a resolution. If we have to wait for an ordinance to take effect we will remain in a limbo position. I don't know where the thought that it required an ordinance came from.

President Maher: Lets get a legal opinion.

Mr. Condon: I did not prepare this ordinance and I will have to review the statute before I give you a legal opinion.

Councilman Testino: Who put it on as an ordinance?

Mayor Cannon: It is on the consent agenda as a resolution.

Appointment - Ethic Board

RESOLUTION #503

Moved by Councilman Redmond, seconded by Councilman Testino and so ordered on the following roll call vote:

AYES: Councilmen Butler, Greene, Redmond, Sohor, Testino, Councilwoman Hegarty, President Maher.

NAYS: None.

ABSENT: Councilman Cucchiara.

NO PARTICIPATION: Councilman Hoff.

Consent Agenda

Resolution authorizing the Township to pay the difference between Military Pay and Township Pay.

RESOLUTION #504

BE IT RESOLVED by the Township Council of the Township of Old Bridge, County of Middlesex, New Jersey that:

WHEREAS, President Bush has issued orders calling up reserve forces in connection with Operation Noble Eagle and Operation Enduring Freedom in response to the recent terrorist attacks against the United States; and

WHEREAS, the Township of Old Bridge wishes to provide extensions of Township pay and benefits and continuation of Township pay and benefits for those Township employees called up to military duty; therefore:

No employee called up for Operation Noble Eagle and Operation Enduring Freedom shall suffer any loss of seniority or benefits other than health benefits.
Employees called up in Operation Noble Eagle and Operation Enduring Freedom shall be paid differential pay between their Township of Old Bridge gross salary and their military base pay. The Finance Director is hereby granted appropriate discretion to determine the likely military base pay of the employee involved. The Finance Director is also given full discretion to adjust and/or readjust pay upon receipt of information clarifying the actual amount of military base pay being received.

Employee's regular pension contributions, contributing group life insurance premiums and/or other payments normally deducted shall be from the payments being made to the employee from the Township of Old Bridge (differential pay).
Although health benefits coverage can continue for employees who are called up for military duty, it may not be in their interest to do so. Employees with single coverage will have their full medical needs met by the military. Family members could possibly have their needs met by the military or other coverage. Therefore, employees should be given the option of waiving the health benefits coverage in case they do not need the coverage while the employee is on military duty. If not expressly waived, that coverage will be continued while the employee is on military duty.
Nothing herein shall be construed to consist or eliminate a right or benefit conferred by any Collective Bargaining Agreement. The Mayor shall issue appropriate regulations or rules to avoid conflict with such agreements if necessary.

AYES: Councilmen Butler, Greene, Hoff, Redmond, Sohor, Testino, Councilwoman Hegarty, President Maher.

NAYS: None.

ABSENT: Councilman Cucchiara.

Prior to the vote the following discussion took place

Councilwoman Hegarty: Should we rescind the ordinance and pass a resolution?

Councilman Testino: Lets do a back up resolution.

Councilwoman Hegarty: Lets not waste any more time, lets have something in place that they can work with.

President Maher: The clerk's office can do a telephone poll.

Clerk Saracino: That would still have to be memorialized at the next meeting.

Councilwoman Hegarty : Lets just pass this resolution. I will move it.

Councilman Testino: So now we have an ordinance and a resolution.

Public Comments:

George Koehler: You discussed rescinding the storm water basin ordinance. That ordinance was prepared because of numerous complaints and concerns presented to council and the planning board by residents. This was to protect the township from having to take over these basins. If there is a problem with the fund and how it is set up, please, adjust the amount of the fund, don't eliminate the ordinance, it is a vital necessity for the town. Please reconsider this.

President Maher: We will be discussing this in the future.

Mr. Koehler: I thank you for considering the sign ordinance also.

Lucille Panos: What is happening on November 8^th with the detention basin ordinance?

President Maher: We will be having a discussion.

Ms. Panos: What happens when there was already an agreement with the township to take over the detention basins. Does that still remain intact?

President Maher: We are finding out that it is not cost effective using the formula that we have had in place. We need to revisit that formula and possibly adjust the formula.

Ms. Panos: The impression was that you were repealing the ordinance.

Mr. Rao: The governor's race is very important on November 6, 2001.

Ms. Estwanick: Where does the council stands on the pumping station that they want to put on Cheesequake Road. Residents of Madison Park were picked up to go see another facility that they had. Has anyone seen it in progress?

Councilman Butler: Transco Pipeline took 6 residents to their facility in Princeton, the people thought that we going to see something that was running but it was shut down. They felt that they made the trip for nothing because they didn't find anything out.

Ms. Estwanick: We wanted to see the noise levels.

Mayor Cannon: I know that their application has been delayed until February or March.

Mr. Pagnotta: Can we do something with the empty building in Vets Park? Maybe a concession stand.

President Maher: Talk to Mr. Badcock.

Seeing no hands President Maher closed the public portion.

Council Comments

Councilman Redmond: There was something in our packet about filming a commercial at the skate park.

Ms. Shepler: This was the first that I heard about it. Ms. Ward brought this to my attention, not one person here has spoken to these people. I think that if they wish to do that, we should charge them a fee.

Councilman Redmond: The contract says...

Ms. Shepler: That is theirs and we would never enter into that, they have to produce liability to the township. The clerk's office has now put a procedure in place.

President Maher: This is not on our agenda so let's not even discuss it.

Councilman Hoff: There was some concerns about the swings at Cliffwood Beach. We need to do something about the playground at Pirates' Cove. Would you ask recreation to go down there.

Councilman Testino: I would like Cedarview Estate hearing to be on November 26^th. I would encourage that Mr. Ruggierio to get the punch list addressed or to collect the money so that the township can do the work.

Councilman Butler: They put a traffic light on Perrine Road and Route 9 with a left turn signal. Who do we to talk to get the signal working?

Mayor Cannon: We will call the DOT and find out what the hold up is.

Councilwoman Hegarty: I would like to see the minutes on the detention basin so that we can see the history behind this ordinance.

Councilman Hoff: Are we now in condemnation proceedings on Cedar Ridge II and Lambertson Tract? I thought Lambertson was in negotiations.

Mayor Cannon: I don't think that the papers have been filed yet.

Mr. Condon: I believe that is correct, but I would have to check. I will let Mr. Hoff know tomorrow.
