ASBURY PARK, Feb. 20, 2002 -- Property owner Jacob Cohen has resigned from the city's Zoning Board of Adjustment. His resignation is the second from the board in the last four months. The board has nine members, two of whom are alternates who can vote if regular members are absent or must abstain from voting. In the past, the first alternate has been moved up to the regular board when a vacancy occurs. The first alternate is Ruthanne Harrison, Sixth Ave. Financial consultant Ned Brown resigned from the board in November, around the time he filed suit against RDR Properties Inc., Bangs Ave. Brown said that RDR had not paid him an equity interest in net proceeds on properties that Brown says he helped RDR buy through bank foreclosures. Brown said he decided to resign from the board because of his involvement in local real estate in general. Cohen, who owns several properties in the city and previously operated a deli, is also a former commissioner of the Asbury Park Housing Authority. In August of last year, Cohen said that he was not reappointed as a commissioner because he refused a request by former City Councilman James Condos to support the return of Kenneth E. Nixon Jr. as the authority's executive director, six years after Nixon was fired from the job. Cohen said Condos wanted Nixon hired so Condos could then be hired as the housing authority's risk management coordinator. Condos and Nixon denied the accusation. Yahoo!
