[AsburyPark] Special BOE meeting tonight
Tonight (Wednesday) at 6:30 PM at the Thurgood Marshall Elementary School (the site of the old Bond Street School), the BOE will hold a Special Meeting to discuss in public the QSAC report that's an acronym for Quality Standards Accountability Compliance, or something like that, I think. It is a public meeting, and you are welcome to be there. Also scheduled to be there is the NJ Commissioner of Education, Lucille Davy. She is reportedly going to introduce to the Board and the public the person the State has chosen to be their official monitor who supposedly will have veto power over anything the Board or the Acting Superintendent can do, creating in effect an Uber-Superintendent in my opinion (since I do not speak for the Board). If you have an opinion one way or another on this, you are welcome to come to the meeting tonight. Frank D'Alessandro, BOE member Yahoo!

You have been the voice of reason, of good common sense, a person who REALLY cares and knows what this City was and now, what it is. I've learned so much through you, Frank, Mario, Dan, Glenn, Jack, Maureen, God Bless her, the short salespro, the bikeman, the couple and if I missed someone, I didn't mean to leave you out! Really, I thought I knew about AP; yeah, I've been reading negative stuff about this town, since I landed here, but I was taught, Believe NONE of what you hear, and HALF, of what you see! I knew that there must be something awfully valuable here, because EVERYBODY, want a piece! Like the Big Apple, I ain't never got a bite! Let me back up a bit; Thanks to the legal eagle, JR and all of the real estate people! Know what else? I don't agree with everyone, all the time, but I respect the fact that I just may be wrong, as perfect as I think I am! After a hard election, where lots of mud was flung, we're still here.

My opinion is that you have to look at MM's entry as the starting point for them and judge what they are able to do in a reasonable timeframe apart from justifyable frustrations that should be directed to Partners. It is never wise to punish the son for the sins of the father. Judge MM on what they are doing as though the slate with them is clean. Again, nobody will always agree with what they do but overall they seem to be investing and things are getting done. I wish we had five years back but we don't and it wasn't their fault. === Just some clarification as to the responsibilities/positions of the parties involved. Asbury Partners has the development rights in the entire Redevelopment Area (I'll give the boundaries if anyone is interested) They are responsible for assembling large parcels of property in the RA and selling them to 'real' developers. They own everything east of Ocean Ave due to the sale of public property by the City. That property is not in the RA and has not been rehabilitated as was promised. Madison Marquette is a partner of Asbury Partners with Asbury Partners holding the majority say. MM is in for the retail component along the beachfront (E of Ocean Ave). Then there's Paramount (N of BCH) Metro (C-8) and Westminster (Wesley) all of which are developing property that Asbury Partners received title to from the Carabetta settlement. No ED was used to acquire them. The point of all this - just to put it all in perspective while figuring out who to blame/praise for what's going on. (Ultimately, isn't it the City Council?)

[AsburyPark] Re: Just a Thought from Outside the Box
The problem is also the amount of money the four council members took from Asbury Partners in the last election. Tens of thousands of dollars. And mostly from New York and California people. Go to the New Jersey Election Committee web site and look at the reports. Can anyone upload them to this site? Mario or Dan? You want this to change, elect others. Keep Keady. Not sure on Johnson. The End. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, dfsavgny [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, dapawprint dapawprint@ wrote: The Partners have used emminent domain at their will to claim many properties whith wich they do NOTHING with (unless, of course MM presses them to do so.) Could that meeting be the first step to use emminent domain AGAINST the Partners and to allow MM to take it all over by themselves? I have written and spoken about this for a couple of years. I have advised (or tried to) on this matter. The WRA prohibits the City from condemning property in the redevelopment zone without Partner's approval. That is so Partners cannot be forced to take and pay for property before it wants to. It would include Partners properties as well. However, what I told the city, is that it cannot contractually agree to limits its inherent sovereign power. Thus, nothing could stop the city from violating that provision. Only the state legislature can limit a local sovereign's power of eminent domain. However, that being said, while nothing could stop the city from taking property contrary to that provision, Partners might be able to sue for breach of contract. However, another possibility is that the court could find that the provision limiting the city's power of eminent domain was contrary to the public good and thus, the provision is not only unenforceable but void ab initio (never existed). All of this is an invitation to litigation. No one wanted it, especially after being held in purgatory by the bankruptcy court. However, I believe that ultimately a tiger cannot change its stripes and litigation will be necessary. While I wish it did not have to happen, perhaps the city leaders will finally reach the breaking point and decide that we have to tighten our belts and go to the mattresses. That litigation could grease the skids for Partners' exit. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: Library Square Lights Update
I thought someone from the city was to report to JCPL when the light poles are out. This particular situation with the park should have been reported by the police to someone to get them fixed. This is irresponsible and symbolic of public servant apathy. Who else from city government is roaming the streets at night except for the police. They would be the ones to notice what areas of the city are without working light poles. The ball is clearly in their court to report this information up the ladder. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, dfsavgny [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jack and Werner, stay off of those ladders.

Typically governments have to rely on citizens to inform them of things like this. What would be an issue is how the reports by citizens are handled. But that being said, perhaps, we can ask the chief to remind officers that when on patrol, and time affords, that they should note any streetlights that are not working and notify the city. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Economy
From Crain's. The implications of the Chinese stop buying dollar denominated investments and US treasuries is frightening. Interest rates will escalate. The 13-nation euro hit a fresh record against the dollar -- rising to $1.4729 -- before falling back. The dollar fell not only against the euro but in Asia following a report that a senior Chinese political figure said China should diversify its $1.43 trillion foreign exchange reserves into the euro and other strong currencies.

[AsburyPark] Legalize This!
OT, but thought some would enjoy this with your nightcaps, morning coffee, or... whatever. From Click here: Devices Enforce Silence of Cellphones, Illegally - New York Times http://nytimes.com/2007/11/04/technology/04jammer.html?ei=5087en=ffb81\ 52ab2245c2dex=121005excamp=mkt_at1pagewanted=all One afternoon in early September, an architect boarded his commuter train and became a cellphone vigilante. He sat down next to a 20-something woman who he said was blabbing away into her phone. She was using the word `like' all the time. She sounded like a Valley Girl, said the architect, Andrew, who declined to give his last name because what he did next was illegal. And some of the letters in response are even better. Like: 1. As my fellow riders rolled their eyes and gritted their teeth, I turned my head slightly over my shoulder and yelled (I have a pretty strong yell), Shaddup already!2. Could you speak just a bit louder they can't quite hear you in Brooklyn.3. You want to talk real loud about, like, nothing? You can do that at home as much as you want. Oh, you don't want to waste your time at home talking about nothing? O.K., then save it for work. No one expects anything else of you there anyway.Excerpted from letters: Click here: When Your Cellphone Is in My Space - New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/06/opinion/l06cell.html?n=Top/Opinion/Ed\ itorials%20and%20Op-Ed/Letters Now if only someone would invent a device to zap or embarrass litterers. Quite a civil society, eh?[;)]

From Online NewsHour: Update | Citigroup CEO Resigns | November 5, 2007 | PBS http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/business/july-dec07/citigroup_11-05.html\ ROBEN FARZAD, Editor, BusinessWeek: Citigroup is a far bigger animal than Merrill Lynch is. Merrill Lynch is an icon of Wall Street; Citigroup is that 300,000 strong, 100-nation financial supermarket. And it is the largest U.S. bank in terms of asset size. So its tentacles reach out everywhere around the world, so any time something like this happens, naturally the entire sector is very nervous. The worry is that it's the tip of the iceberg, because we know plus or minus $55 billion in mortgage-related securities sit on Citigroup's books. Anyone who was part of a caretaker board -- and, by the way, it's not just him. It's people as diverse as Dick Parsons, the CEO of Time Warner. You had C. Michael Armstrong, who helped run ATT into the ground at the audit committee. I think it's becoming abundantly clear that the board was asleep at the switch, and they allowed the CEO to take ever larger amounts of risk and embolden the troops to do as much. And, obviously, they're paying for it in spades. Online NewsHour: Update | Citigroup CEO Resigns | November 5, 2007 | PBS http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/business/july-dec07/citigroup_11-05.html\
[AsburyPark] Tonight's Special BOE meeting
Tonight's Special BOE meeting could not be held since adequate notice had not been sent to the newspapers of record. Instead, the regular monthly meeting for November, scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 28, will begin at 6:30 PM to give the Commissioner of Education and the public the extra time necessary to discuss the State monitor's report. Had we held the meeting without adequate notice, we would have been in violation of the Open Public Meetings Act. We try to observe all laws, even Murphy's. Tonight the local ministers from Neptune/Asbury had neatly lettered signs denouncing the BOE and claiming we were hurting the children, and former Board member Antoinette (Toni) Ross passed around hand written petitions demanding that most BOE members (including yours truly) be removed. The Board's attorney made the announcement concerning the inability to proceed with the meeting and the apologies to the people assembled. All in all it was a very Asbury experience. Speaking for myself, I likened it to an amateur performance of Waiting for Godot. Beckett would have been proud. Frank D'Alessandro, BOE member Yahoo!
