She cited a time that she called the County Health Department concerning a large gathering during COVID and asked for a call back, but did not receive one. She cited no confidence in the County, saying this is how the residents are treated.

ANTHONY BAIER-4 OVERLOOK DRIVE- Asked for a list of concerns that were brought forward tonight so they in the audience could see that they have been heard.

50 year RESIDENT OF BROOKWOOD FOUR – Lives on Atlanta Drive and is bothered by people wanting her to sell her house to them but she isn’t ready yet. She gets mail, they don’t knock on her door but she doesn’t want them to call her. House phone numbers are easy to obtain. She is uneasy that they will know if anyone lives with her. She said it is a good Township, and she hopes it stays that way.

JENNIFER CUSINELLI- 14 BLUE SPRUCE DRIVE- Wanted to ask if standard procedure was in place for permits for ervs to be put on telephone poles. She called Code Enforcement and received a return phone call from the police department, who told her that was none of her concern. BA Wall said he would investigate that and gave his extension, adding that if there are any other concerns, to call that number and he would look into it.

KEN ESPOSITO-401 LEESVILLE ROAD – He and his neighbors are concerned about the potential school going in their area. He is concerned about the ground water on a school that will be larger than our high school. He is concerned about the septic system for it and his own septic and well. He lives downhill from the proposed school. He is concerned about the amount of traffic and speeding. He wanted council to consider secondary and further impacts in addition to the primary impacts. He asked who is protecting him?

ELAINE KOWALSKI- 322 DIAMOND ROAD - She is also concerned about the potential school. She asked for clarification if fair market value was an offer on this property. Council Vice President clarified that we can’t go over appraised value in order to buy a property. We did have an agreement to purchase the property from the property owner, but the property owner backed out. The township was very actively trying to purchase that farm. She was wondering if the appraised value was something the homeowners could use to pitch in and buy it themselves. If we bought it, it was supposed to remain as it is. Open space. BA Wall said the township was very very actively trying to purchase the land, we had an agreement and shook hands on it. That meant something to him, as he was raised, and then the deal changed. Council President added that is why we are trying to actively search for and preserve other land and the resources. Ms. Kowalski agreed with her neighbors that this is not an inherently beneficial use to the Township.
