ROLL CALL: ## COMMITTEEMAN BRODERICK COMMITTEEMAN KAFTON COMMITTEEMAN REILLY DEPUTY MAYOR GRISANTI MAYOR GIBLIN ATTORNEY STARKEY ADMINISTRATOR KENNEDY TOWNSHIP CLERK EDEN ===== PAGE 2 ===== As Clerk of this meeting, I publicly announce that in compliance with the provisions of the “Open Public Meetings Act” adequate notice of this meeting of the Jackson Township Committee has been advertised in the manner prescribed by law. This statement shall be entered into the Minutes of this meeting. MAYOR'S GOLF TOURNAMENT: - Kiwanis Club Caregivers of Ocean County (Nancy Urnst) COMMITTEEMAN KAFTON: He asked this be carried to the July 26th Committee Meeting. He also asked that Softball (Bill Reva) be added on to this for the next meeting. ## COMMITTEE COMMENTS COMMITTEEMAN BRODERICK: He thanked everyone for coming out in such bad weather. He thanked all the individuals involved who put together another very successful 4th of July celebration. He thanked Anne Alberta, Recreation Director, and her staff along with the Public Works Department. He also thanked the Police Department and EMS for making the park safe and secure. COMMITTEEMAN KAFTON: He too wanted to thank everyone involved in the 4^{th} of July fireworks celebration. He thanked Stop & Shop for donating $11,000 for the purchase of the fireworks. He went on to say that he and Mayor Giblin went to a meeting today at the Brick MUA. Bradley Campbell from the DEP was at that meeting to announce the signing of the C-1 category. The C-1 category as of today has been signed and is in place. This is something that Jackson and all the other towns along the Metedeconk have been pushing for. COMMITTEEMAN REILLY: He began by saying that he echoes the sentiments of Committeeman Kafton regarding the C-1 designation. He then stated that there is an ordinance on tonight for second reading placing a question on the ballot regarding our open space trust fund. He thinks it is great to see the public involved and he hopes a lot of people come out and he encourages them to vote in the affirmative. DEPUTY MAYOR GRISANTI: He began by saying that he agrees with his fellow Committeeman that the $ 4^{th} $ of July this year was great. Everyone looked like they were having a good time. He thanked Stop & Shop for sponsoring this event and said it is nice to see our commercial establishments supporting the community. He thanked Anne Alberta, Recreation Director, for doing an excellent job and all the Township employees involved. He then went on to speak about the ordinance Committeeman Reilly talked about regarding open space. He strongly urged the public to support the increase for our open space funding. They have been very aggressive about purchasing open space and would like to stay on that path, but they need the funds to do it. He personally thinks it will be very well supported in November and he asked everyone to spread the word and vote “yes”. MAYOR GIBLIN: He stated that they are pleased that the State of New Jersey has taken a positive step to protect our water supply today and in the future. The primary reason that Metedeconk is so important is because of years of over-development and uncontrolled growth down stream. This has made protecting the vital resource upstream essential. Where very little pollution of the river has occurred in Jackson they are taking the responsibility of protecting it seriously. It makes good environmental and economic sense to bring this watershed under the important protections of the Category 1 designation. He thanked Governor McGreevey and Commissioner Campbell for their commitment to protect our natural resources. It is an exciting step in Jackson and he thinks that they can develop wisely, economically and at the same time protect the environment from uncontrolled and unregulated residential or commercial growth. He thanked Denise Garner and Scott Najarian for attending the ceremony this afternoon. ===== PAGE 3 ===== ## BILLS AND CLAIMS MOTION TO APPROVE BILLS AND CLAIMS BY: BRODERICK MOTION SECONDED BY: GRISANTI YES: BRODERICK, KAFTON, REILLY, GRISANTI & GIBLIN NO: REILLY (JCA & CME) ABSTENTIONS: GIBLIN (NJS-01)

ORDINANCES, SECOND READING: 30-04 TITLE: AN ORDINANCE OF THE TOWNSHIP COMMITTEE OF THE TOWNSHIP OF JACKSON AUTHORIZING THE SUBMISSION OF A PUBLIC QUESTION TO THE VOTERS ON THE BALLOT FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION TO BE HELD ON NOVEMBER 2, 2004 PUBLIC HEARING OPENED: STEVE BROSKY, 524 CEDAR SWAMP ROAD: (inaudible) He asked how they are going to go about water quality protection and funding? He later asked if there was a priority list of what they want to purchase first? He added that he doesn’t mind kicking in the extra $100.00, but he would like to see some of that money coming back into his community. He doesn’t want to see it going to the other side of town where they may have extra land and different zones for building. Mayor Giblin explained that the funding mechanism is an open space trust fund. There are different components whether you purchase water for environmental reasons, passive or active recreation. Presently, they are developing an open space plan, which includes many different areas for many different reasons. When they have the ability to purchase these it all depends on the funding mechanism in place and the availability of those specific properties and that is when the decisions will be made. As far as prioritizing things there are so many different variables so there is no set mechanism in place. He explained that the first time around many people wanted the one and a half cents to stop development, which they did. Deputy Mayor Grisanti asked Mr. Brosky if the 115-acre Vista Property was close to him? Mr. Brosky replied he could drive there in five minutes. Mayor Giblin stated that that property backs up to the lake and they will actually be protecting the water because there will be no homes, blacktop and road construction there, as well as passive and active recreation. Mr. Brosky went on to speak about a small lake across from his house that is about 2 acres in size, which would be nice to purchase. Mayor Giblin explained they encourage residents if they have a piece of property they think would be good for acquisition to forward it to Andy Strauss, the Open Space Planner, and he will take a look at it. The Mayor went on to say that he is not familiar with the property Mr. Brosky was referring to. Committeeman Reilly stated that this was e-mailed to them a while back. Mr. Brosky said that he would e-mail them pictures. MOTION TO CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING BY: KAFTON MOTION SECONDED BY: BRODERICK YES: BRODERICK, KAFTON, REILLY, GRISANTI & GIBLIN ## MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 30-04 ON SECOND READING, ADVERTISE THE NOTICE OF PASSAGE AND APPROVAL IN AN APPROVED NEWSPAPER AS REQUIRED BY LAW BY: BRODERICK MOTION SECONDED BY: GRISANTI YES: BRODERICK KAETON BEILLY CRISANTL & CIRLIN YES: BRODERICK, KAFTON, REILLY, GRISANTI & GIBLIN COMMITTEEMAN KAFTON: He explained that he does support this and with the last penny and a half increase the town has stopped quite a bit of houses from being built. This is a huge benefit to the residents of the community because of the children that would have been put into the school system, which would have drastically increased the taxes. He encouraged people to support this so they can continue to slow down the growth. ===== PAGE 6 ===== ## ORDINANCE 30-04 WHEREAS, Jackson Township residents voted in November 2001 to approve the establishment of an “Open Space Trust Fund”, which provides funding used solely for the purchase of property within the Township for the purposes of active recreation, passive recreation and water quality protection; and WHEREAS, the “Open Space Trust Fund” is currently funded through local taxes at the rate of one and one-half cent per hundred dollars of assessed value; and WHEREAS, the Township Committee has aggressively and successfully purchased open space in order to limit residential development and to provide more open space for the residents of the Township for recreation and water quality protection; and WHEREAS, the Township desires to increase the funding of the “Open Space Trust Fund” in order to allow for greater land acquisition and open space protection, in order to preserve the quality of life for Jackson residents; and WHEREAS, the Township Committee desires to ascertain the sentiment of the voters on this question; BE IT ORDAINED, by the Township Committee of the Township of Jackson, County of Ocean, State of New Jersey, as follows: SECTION 1. Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 19:37-1, et seq., the Township Committee hereby authorizes the submission of the following question to a non-binding vote at the next general election to be held on November 2, 2004: Shall the Township Committee of the Township of Jackson adopt an ordinance that increases the funding of the “Open Space Trust Fund”, which shall have the following provisions: 1. The funding of the “Open Space Trust Fund” shall be increased by the collection of local property taxes in the amount of one and one-half cent per hundred dollars of assessed value. The increase shall be added to the current funding of the “Open Space Trust Fund” of one and one-half cent. The total Year 2004 cost per home assessed at $160,000 would be $48.00 per year, or $4.00 per month. ===== PAGE 7 ===== 2. Said funds shall be designated solely for the purchase of property or preservation easements within the Township of Jackson for the purpose of active recreation, passive recreation and water quality protection. 3. Any property or preservation easement purchased by the “Open Space Trust Fund” shall not be sold or conveyed unless and until authorized by binding Public Referendum. ## EXPLANATORY STATEMENT The question proposes increasing the funding of the Open Space Trust Fund, which is dedicated solely for open space acquisition, from the current 1.5 cents per hundred dollars of assessed value, by an additional 1.5 cents, for a total of three cents. The proposed increase would enable Jackson Township to continue to aggressively purchase undeveloped land in order to preserve open space and parkland and to establish new recreation areas. SECTION 2. The Ocean County Clerk is hereby authorized to print the above question and interpretive statement on the official ballots for the general election to be held on November 2, 2004. SECTION 3. All ordinances or parts of ordinances inconsistent herewith are hereby repealed. SECTION 4.

DATED: 07/12/04 ##### ANN MARIE EDEN, R.M.C. TOWNSHIP CLERK ## DISCUSSION AGENDA: ## RE: SCHOOL BEAUTIFICATION PROJECT COMMITTEEMAN BRODERICK: Members from the Jackson Township Rotary Club, School Board and the Shade Tree Commission have volunteered to do a school beautification project along with 100 students and their parents. This year they will start ===== PAGE 24 ===== on the high school. They will be planning 47 trees and shrubbery to beautify the front portion of the school. Last week they had their final meeting with the State Forestry Commission before they kick off the project. The forestry Commission asked them to testify in Trenton on funding that will be available to them for 3 Million Dollars. No other town in New Jersey has ever entered into this type of agreement. He asked for support from the Committee. Mayor Giblin asked if some of the money collected through the tree ordinance would be used? Committeeman Broderick replied yes they can use that money for the trees being planted around the schools because it is township property. CONCLUSION: The entire Committee gave their support on this project. ## RE: UPDATE – 4 WAY STOP AT HYSON AND HARMONY & 4 TON WEIGHT LIMIT ON OCEAN COUNTY ROADWAYS TOWNSHIP CLERK EDEN: She explained at the last meeting there was a request by the Jackson Township Police Department to install a four way stop at Hyson and Harmony and 4 ton weight limits on certain roads in Jackson. The Committee had requested additional information and she found out that the Police Department recommended this based on accidents on that intersection. They verbally communicated with the County so there isn't any written correspondence available. Mayor Giblin stated that he would like Manhattan Street added to the roads with a 4-ton weight limit. Committeeman Broderick explained that there were approximately 30 County roads in Jackson that were recommended to the County and these four were all they would allow. Township Clerk Eden stated that she had a back-up correspondence from the County regarding the 4-ton weight limit. Committeeman Kafton stated that Hyson Road is a very busy road used by many of our commuters. He thinks altering that road so that every vehicle has to stop on all four sides would not be a benefit. Deputy Mayor Grisanti explained that he would like to see more information from the police justifying this change. He believes that on some roads it is more dangerous to slow down the flow of traffic. Committeeman Reilly explained that he takes that road every day. It is a caution on one side and a stop on the other and people are going at a high rate of speed through the caution. There is a little rise on the left hand side coming from 195 and the visibility is very bad especially after dusk. Therefore, he goes along with the recommendation for a 4-way stop. He asked if this was just preliminary to an actual signal? Mayor Giblin stated there isn't enough traffic so he doesn't believe they will ever get a signal there. He later asked for the accident reports from that intersection. CONCLUSION: The Committee supports the 4-ton weight limit on certain roads. A resolution will be on the agenda regarding this at the July 26th Committee Meeting. The Committee requested more information from the Jackson Police Department regarding the 4 way stop at Harmony and Hyson. ## RE: RECREATION DEPARTMENT'S REQUEST TO INCREASE WINTER BASKETBALL AND WRESTLING FEES TOWNSHIP CLERK EDEN: The Director of Recreation is requesting increasing the winter basketball fee from $35 to $40 and the winter wrestling fee from $45 to $70. Committeeman Kafton asked if the fees they are now collecting are covering the expenses? Township Clerk Eden stated she doesn't believe so because the memo shows there is only 98% coverage on both. Deputy Mayor Grisanti believes the Recreation Director is very sensitive to only covering the cost. Committeeman Reilly asked if the number of children have increased since last year? He also asked if the fee increase would affect people from signing up? Mayor Giblin stated he believes there is a waiting list and the cost is still reasonable. Committeeman Reilly stated that he would contact Ms. Alberta and get the information he is looking for.
