[AsburyPark] Jersey Girl Atkins talks up Asbury Park in Boston

2008-11-13 Thread MarioAPNJ
Atkins: a different type of Jersey girl

Singer reflects on her home, her ‘City’ and the Boss
 
Nicole Atkins’ debut full-length, “Neptune City,” canonizes her New Jersey  
hometown. But it couldn't be further from the rock bravado precedent set by  
Jersey boy/god Bruce Springsteen.… Full text at  http://tinyurl.com/57nchj  ]
 
(Photo Caption) Rising: Atkins has come to terms with her regional roots. 
 
She lives two miles away from Neptune City now, in Asbury Park. 
 
“It’s all these beautiful 1920s seaside facades, all broken down ghost  town,
” she says. “It’s gorgeous. But it used to be Dogtown — lots of gang  
activity and surfers. The gay community moved in and now it’s all artists and  
upstarts. It’s gone through a nice revitalization.”
 
Atkins has also come around — on a guy who, rock-wise, put Asbury Park on  
the map. 

“I grew up in a town where every band in town wanted to be Bruce  Springsteen 
and everybody had a story and was like, ‘I know Bruce Springsteen,  man,’” 
she scoffs. “I didn't like the whole ‘Rosalita’-era. But I never heard  him do 
it — I just heard bad imitations.”
 
Then she read an article on the making of “Born to Run” while recording her  
album. She turned the corner.
 
“Now I love him,” she says. “I see him in town from time to time, and we'll  
sit and have a drink and talk. ... He’s seriously the coolest guy ever  made.”
 
It’s hard to resist giving Atkins a hard time, now she’s “that guy” who  
brags about knowing Bruce Springsteen.
 
“Oh, yeah,” she coos. “He'll come into my friend’s bar and ask about me,  
and I won't even be like [casual]. I'll be like, ‘Me? Really? Tell me! Tell me! 
 What'd he say? What'd he say?’

Is this Juicy Jen from the lanes?  Funny you should bring up rape.
Last year some time I was at the lanes watching a band, and on the
screen behind the band you guys were showing clips of rape scenes. It
was really strange. I was exhausted so I wasn't reacting, but I
remember thinking wow, if i had been raped, this would be really
disturbing to me. Pretty sure a woman who was there complained. I saw
her talk to some of the women there and the film was changed. I
couldn't imagine what it would be like to be ok with footage like that
shown in a place I worked or ran.

Sorry this discussion has bored you. It does get that way. I just like
to get to the bottom of things, like why does Tommy try to divert
potential discussions of the city budget into personal brouhahas.

What would you like to talk about since we are boring you?

Yes, Bush the reason that Americans bought houses they couldn't afford and then 
used them like ATMs. He is the reason Americans used their charge cards until 
they couldn't anymore. No one is responsible for their own actions anymore. 
 
It isn't going to make a difference who is in the White House now or in two 
years the results will be the same. Our economy is based upon Americans 
spending and we can't anymore so how can it recover? Provide MORE credit for 
people so they, and the country, can get deeper in the hole?
 
We don't manufacture anything here anymore what we have for industry is like a 
third world country.
 
It makes no difference who is in the white house now because in a year nothing 
will be changed, the country wil be deeper in the hole and Obama will be 
getting the blame for it.In addition to taking heat for promises he made that 
he just can't possibly keep.

[AsburyPark] Council Meeting - Budget

2008-11-13 Thread wernerapnj

At last nights CM the sale of City issued Bonds came up. I don't know
the details, however the discussion was about selling approximately
$2.7 Million worth. Councilman Keady asked what the impact would if
they could not be sold.

After a several round-about non-answers he pressed the issue of what
would be the negative consequences to the City financially if they
were not sold.

Final Answer - Not good.

The attitude displayed by the rest of our leadership was disturbing.
As if asking questions was somehow anti-something That any hint of
a potential problem should not be discussed

I raised a budget issue also --- (separate topic)

[AsburyPark] Re: It's Official: Help to Homeowners Now Completely Out of Bailout Plans

2008-11-13 Thread Gabrielle Obre
Ok, I hear you. Keady has never condemned the acts of Karenga. 

I don't really care about Councilman Keady's personal opinions on
Columbus day or Kwanzaa. I care that as a councilman he treats them
with fairness and a sense of responsibility to the city. Given what he
has posted here, that seems to be the case.

I have never seen Keady bash Columbus day from the dais. Perhaps it is
not wise for councilmen to meld their personal passions with duties as
an elected official. As a voter, his attention to transparency and
communication with the community trumps that lack of wisdom.

I understand your gripe and I don't think its that way off. I just
don't share your personal offense and it really seems you have a
personal issue with Keady. 

Lets move on, we are boring Juicy Jen.

  Totally understandable given that the city is broke.
 
 Gabbi words mean things.  If you are going to comment on what I write, 
 please read it first.
 
 I said that He is unsupportive of the City's Columbus and Kwanaa 
 celebrations.  Not in general, the City's celebration.  That's what 
 he opposes.  That's His position, and you can't change that.
 
 That being said, he actually does oppose Columbus Celebrations in 
 general, evidenced by his past vitriolic attacks on the celebration in 
 public, not printed here.
 
 He wants Columbus celebrations infused with bad stories of Columbus.
 
 He does not similarly insist those who celebrate Kwanzaa infuse their 
 ceremonies with terrible crimes of Karenga.
 
 That is His hyporcrisy which I've repeated over and over that neither 
 He nor you nor any other of His supporters will comment on.
 
 Now go ahead and reply without again commenting on that differing 
 treatment by Him of the two groups.  Comment on something else so you 
 don't have to face that he's wrong.
 
 I'll just cite it again after that, and you can ignore it again and 'll 
 ask you again and you'll ignore it again and it will never end.
 
 Let's not do that. 
 
 Go talk about a private property owner who lights up his own hotel.  
 It's more important than a biased councilman.

[AsburyPark] Council Meeting - Lighting Costs

2008-11-13 Thread wernerapnj

At last nights CM the budget/bond discussion led me to make comment
about the large waste being displayed by both the City and the
Developers in electric consumption.

I brought to their attention the large number of industrial light
fixtures that are on utility poles, City property and the ConHall.

My point was that there are a lot of redundant, unneeded fixtures that
are costing everyone $$$ to operate. Some utility poles have 3
separate lights on them in the same location. The ConHall has
beautiful 1930s lighting that is being drowned out by unneeded flood
lights.

I asked who is responsible for the costs of publicly located fixtures,
my 3 minutes were up and there was no answer, on to business.

Later on during one of the Ordinance hearings I raised
'point-of-order' and demanded an answer. Finally got one..
The City pays the costs of lighting. That would be the taxpayers.

It would reduce our budget deficit to remove redundant lighting and
use only energy efficient fixtures. The developers would benefit
financially also to follow the same path.

Again, no comment or discussion from our leaders... Blank Stares.

Werner

2008-11-13 Thread justifiedright
Juicy Jen don't sweat it I think the discussion has ended.

Sorry it bored you.  To me the real topic was the claims of those on 
this board that they are in Asbury Park because of a great respect 
for diversity and tolerance for people who belong to groups other 
than they do.

I learned a great deal about those who post here regarding those 
claims. I'll keep in mind always what I learned here about watching 
them try to put those ideas in practice, contrary to the flowery 
language they type when they discuss diversity and tolerance in the 
abstract.

I don't want to start a conversation with you about Columbus, but 
since you opined, please do some reading about a guy named de 
Bobadilla.  The bad stories of Columbus came from him - Columbus' 
enemy who wanted Columbus' job as Governor.  His claims were first 
accepted (after his full 2 week investigation) but then debunked 500 
years ago.

Folks who want Columbus to look bad have resurrected his debunked 
claims.  They bury in a footnotes that the claims were debunked 500 
years ago.


By the way are you the Juicy  I get emails from to come to her art 
gallery on Cookman?

 Keady's position seems pretty clear. he is against the funding of both
 celebrations which makes sense considering the financial state of AP.
 Like me buying a 30$ bottle of wine.
 
 His desire to have more truth told about Columbus is completely

  My complaint about you is this:
  
  You put your lengthy public stance on the record each year against
  Columbus Day, which is reported in the paper, on the basis that

  You do not put a lengthy public stance against Kwanzaa on the record.
  You do not insist insist that as people celebrate that week, they

I would NEVER be a hater of JR. I took your answer as sort of
flippant. And what I need is a serious education on the budget. I also
see no reason why it can't be presented in an accessible manner. I
don't think its as simple a discussion as you suggest. I think there
is an argument for going over the spending line by line...or at least
by department. maybe im wrong. but if the city keeps have debt year
after year, the taxpayers are going to have a serious problem.

and you weren't the only one. someone emailed me privately.

I truly do see your side in the whole kwanzaa/colmbus/christmas thing.
imo you seem to get hung up on personal offenses is all. the budget is
clearly more important than keady and your personal causes.

you watch too much Fox. check out some writing on non violent
communication or Physicist David Bohm's book On Dialogue. Attorney
speak has its value in a courtroom, not in a community like this.

Keady's position seems pretty clear. he is against the funding of both
celebrations which makes sense considering the financial state of AP.
Like me buying a 30$ bottle of wine.

His desire to have more truth told about Columbus is completely
reasonable and doesn't suggest it go away.

you seem to never be able to be satisfied with any answer that
counters your desire to have something to be offended by.

 Mr. Keady, your rhetorical game is clear.
 
 Your entire post is personalizing about you and me.
 
 You speak in laudatory terms about yourself and malign me.
 
 The issue, however, is again completely ignored.
 
 Your Apostles can yell Bitch Slap and Oh Snap all they wish, but
 neither of them will address the issue either.
 
 I judge you on positions you take. I have supported some of those
 positions at times, and quite publicly. But your ledger is one sided.
 You'll never credit the times I've supported you, and you will
 personalize against me when I disagree with a policy.
 
 So I'll state the issue again, on the sliver of hope that you or one
 of your Apostles will dare address it:
 
 I understand that you object to Columbus Day and Kwanzaa on the basis
 that you think the City should not expend public resources on either.
 
 My disagreement with you aside, at least you are consistent.
 
 My complaint about you is this:
 
 You put your lengthy public stance on the record each year against
 Columbus Day, which is reported in the paper, on the basis that
 Columbus did bad things, and you insist that information should be
 taught that day.
 
 You do not put a lengthy public stance against Kwanzaa on the record.
 You do not insist insist that as people celebrate that week, they
 should teach about the disgusting crimes of Ron Karenga - Kwanzaa's
 founder.
 
 It is on that ISSUE that you suffer hypocrisy. The different
 treatment is about votes, no matter how much you deny it.
 
 I take it I don't have to respond to the probing, thoughtful analysis
 of the issue provided by your Apostles in the form of Bitch Slap and
 Oh Snap.

[AsburyPark] Budget

2008-11-13 Thread justifiedright
I'm changing the topic heading so we don't see that whole Lie 
thing posted any more.

Gabbi my answer to your budget question was not flippant.  I was 
moving the discussion along by narrowing the focus.

Much of the budget is mandatory spending.  You can't touch it.  It's 
mandatory.

The three large areas of discretionary spending are Police, Fire and 
Public Works.  That's where you have to look to save money.

You could throw in Administration too.

My point last time was that I doubt anyone in AP is going to want to 
cut the police and fire budgets (I could be wrong).

Those are the areas that you are likely to spend the most time 
looking at.

I'm not being flippant and trying to end the discussion.  I'm trying 
now like last time to get it going.

If anyone wants to get the budget I'll pledge the use of my 
equipment to turn it into a pdf and put it online so we can see it 
and discuss it.

But I know this board - all talk no action.

Lets throw out some insults instead!

Blinded by the lights.

 Totally understandable given that the city is broke.

Gabbi words mean things.  If you are going to comment on what I write, 
please read it first.

I said that He is unsupportive of the City's Columbus and Kwanaa 
celebrations.  Not in general, the City's celebration.  That's what 
he opposes.  That's His position, and you can't change that.

That being said, he actually does oppose Columbus Celebrations in 
general, evidenced by his past vitriolic attacks on the celebration in 
public, not printed here.

He wants Columbus celebrations infused with bad stories of Columbus.

He does not similarly insist those who celebrate Kwanzaa infuse their 
ceremonies with terrible crimes of Karenga.

That is His hyporcrisy which I've repeated over and over that neither 
He nor you nor any other of His supporters will comment on.

Now go ahead and reply without again commenting on that differing 
treatment by Him of the two groups.  Comment on something else so you 
don't have to face that he's wrong.

I'll just cite it again after that, and you can ignore it again and 'll 
ask you again and you'll ignore it again and it will never end.

Let's not do that. 

Go talk about a private property owner who lights up his own hotel.  
It's more important than a biased councilman.

[AsburyPark] Re: Council Meeting - Lighting Costs

2008-11-13 Thread Gabrielle Obre
As obvious as dealing with your personal electric consumption habits.
Another reason to get a formal citizen discussion of the budget
together. line by line as keady suggested. Or at least get some kind
of report from the citizen budget committee. isn't there one?

have any idea how much AP spend on electricity? how does it compare to
other comparable cities?

 At last nights CM the budget/bond discussion led me to make comment
 about the large waste being displayed by both the City and the
 Developers in electric consumption.
 
 I brought to their attention the large number of industrial light
 fixtures that are on utility poles, City property and the ConHall.
 
 My point was that there are a lot of redundant, unneeded fixtures that
 are costing everyone $$$ to operate. Some utility poles have 3
 separate lights on them in the same location. The ConHall has
 beautiful 1930s lighting that is being drowned out by unneeded flood
 lights.
 
 I asked who is responsible for the costs of publicly located fixtures,
 my 3 minutes were up and there was no answer, on to business.
 
 Later on during one of the Ordinance hearings I raised
 'point-of-order' and demanded an answer. Finally got one..
 The City pays the costs of lighting. That would be the taxpayers.
 
 It would reduce our budget deficit to remove redundant lighting and
 use only energy efficient fixtures. The developers would benefit
 financially also to follow the same path.
 
 Again, no comment or discussion from our leaders... Blank Stares.

2008-11-13 Thread Gabrielle Obre
Awesome. But the budget as it looks now is pretty incomprehensible.
There must be a way to simplify it. Though maybe a first step is to
simply create a PDF of it. The city should have it in that form.  I am
willing to put in some time to do data entry into a spreadsheet out of
which something could be created, but someone who knows this stuff is
going to have to oversee what I do to make sure it is accurate.

There is surely a way to break it down into simple categories to give
people an idea of what is being spent where. 

you throw as many insults as anyone. making fun of the lights is a
perfect example. and I assume that is part of public works? You can't
really make fun of the suggestion we cut energy usage in this day and age.

---how to create a PDF file from every professional accounting 
package.

Select the type of report you want in this case someone create one 

for the asbury park yahoo group

then select create pdf

They (the council) are simply overwhelmed by the complexity of 
running a municipality and so probably are some of the staff who are 
in over their heads. Just a guess.

 I just left another town's inpsection office as I have an inspection 
coming for some work that was done. I figure I'd go there in person 
to simply ask what time will they be there - just tell me am or pm 
and I'll be ok... 

The response, between 9 and 2:30..

Ok, can you please have them call me 15 minutes before...

No, but you are on the list...6th you know tehy can't do that many 
inspections quick so figure later then sooner...

Whew.

So back to the budget - you have to look at what's coming in, taxes, 
state aid, what HAS to go out, what the wish list is and then go 
hunting for credit to cover the basics.

[AsburyPark] banks cannot forgive credit card debt

2008-11-13 Thread oakdorf
An agency official said the government objects to allowing banks to 
defer losses for several years on the forgiven debt, as would occur in 
accounting by lenders under the special program.

The agency does not consider any plan that defers the timely 
recognition of loss as prudent, and any such proposal cannot be viewed 
favorably by us, Timothy Long, senior deputy comptroller for bank 
supervision policy, said in a letter to the two groups dated Monday and 
made public Wednesday.




But the fed is allowing banks to hide foreclosures. It's just easier on 
the system.

Give me a break. You don't live in AP, and those ridiculous lights aren't 
blaring into your 
home at night when it's supposed to be dark. All of the homes that boarder the 
boardwalk 
area are lit up like daytime every single night, whether there is an event or 
not. The lights 
near the Casino are blaring away every night, flooding the living rooms and 
bedrooms of 
people in nearby Ocean Grove. It's absolute overkill. It would make much more 
sense to 
use the lighting on demand, when there's an event that warrents it, but to have 
them on 
every single night is a huge waste of electricity that we are paying for.
Werner is 100 % right about how inappropriate the fixtures are.
Also, crime isn't down in the city because of the lighting, in fact, the area 
where they are 
being used isn't really an area of the city that has been a hotbed of crime. I

You are a hypocrite. Buy shades. What a jerk. And stop with your 
personalizing crap.
When you say Buy shades it just shows what selfish, out of touch and 
inconsiderate 
person you really are.
Asbury Park isn't an airport. It's a seaside town thats more residential then 
tourism 
oriented. When the tourists go away after the summer is done, that gives the 
rest of us, 
WHO LIVE HERE, 9 months to deal with the lighting.
Just the fact that you make the leap to living near an airport shows the flaws 
in your 
thinking.
Buy shades - probably the most ridiculous statement you've ever made here. 
You want 
people to buy shades so they can sleep at night, meanwhile you are out in 
Howell, where 
it's nice and dark. Do us a favor, until you chose to live in the city, stop 
trying to tell us 
who do how we should think about it.

  Give me a break. You don't live in AP, and those ridiculous lights 
 aren't blaring into your

 boarder the boardwalk 
  area are lit up like daytime every single night, whether there is 
 an event or not. The lights 
  near the Casino are blaring away every night, flooding the living 
 rooms and bedrooms of 
  people in nearby Ocean Grove. It's absolute overkill. It would 
 make much more sense to 
  use the lighting on demand, when there's an event that warrents 
 it, but to have them on 
  every single night is a huge waste of electricity that we are 
 paying for.
  Werner is 100 % right about how inappropriate the fixtures are.
  Also, crime isn't down in the city because of the lighting, in 
 fact, the area where they are 
  being used isn't really an area of the city that has been a hotbed 
 of crime. I can 
  understand wanting to attract people to a safer AP, but what about 
 the citizens who live 
  here 7 days a week? Why should they have to deal with having their 
 bedrooms and living 
  rooms lit up every single night?

   Now is no the time for Asbury Park to dim the lights.  I have no

   Right now, Asbury Park needs to be lit up so people are not 
 afraid 
   of her.

No, your thinking is flawed. Ocean Grove residents need not have to deal with 
our 
overzealous lighting, and despite the hope that AP will be a year round 
destination, it's 
simply not the case, yet, and even when that happens, there is absolutely no 
justfication 
for blaring light at all hours of the night. Your' buy shades theme just 
shows you to be 
self centered. The residents that surround the boardwalk area shouldn't be told 
to buy 
shades
They live there, pay rent, pay home payments etc, 24/7, year round. You 
obviously could 
care less about them...

[AsburyPark] buy high on west side .......sell beachfront cheap

2008-11-13 Thread gtscarano212

One does not have to be a real estate expert to see how suave the current 
leaders of Asbury Park are. Last council meeting in October, the public was 
told the beachfront triangle was sold to Asbury Partners for $490,000 with a 
minimum fee of a dollar a year for the new mansions to have patios on public 
green space. The ten  multi-- million tri-plexs will have views of the ocean, 
lake and sewage plant.
Reading this article, it seems like Uncle Phil screwed Asbury Park tax payers 
once again from the grave.
Anybody else want to buy or sell land to people in charge of running the city.  
Thank god the state of New Jersey believes in Asbury Park  leadership and keeps 
giving state aid.
My other comment, would less expensive, out of county, lawyers have gotten us 
the a higher price for the beach front and retrieved the Springwood Ave lots 
free with eminent domain or time of essence letters for lack of payment in 
full.  
Does anybody know why the lots of Springwood Ave became the subject of a long 
law suit? Was it the past city leaders or the city lawyers who dropped the ball.
In any case, at least the Westside will have fresh start, even if the tax 
payers don't know what going on.


ASBURY PARK — The city and the company of the late power broker Philip Konvitz 
have reached a court agreement for Asbury Park to pay $700,000 to get back 50 
vacant Springwood Avenue lots on which Konvitz failed to build on from 1990 
until his death at age 95 in 20
05.

Superior Court Judge Louis F. Locascio oversaw the settlement between Asbury 
Shores and the city, which was agreed to late last month and the City Council 
approved Wednesday night.

The city will tap into the $2 million it has received so far for affordable 
housing and community projects from beachfront developer Asbury Partners, to 
buy back the land located on approximately three blocks of the Springwood 
Avenue corridor.

The vote you just witnessed is a historic resolution for this city, said City 
Manager Terence J. Reidy.

Since July 4, 1970, Springwood Avenue has either been blighted or 
underdeveloped, and this had a significant social impact on our city, Reidy 
said, referring to the date of civil disturbances.

Councilman Ed Johnson said, This settlement is living proof that the past is 
over and we are moving on to the future.

There could be a holdup on the sale going through if a third party, Somerset 
Development Corp. of Lakewood, decides to pursue an appeal of litigation over 
the Springwood sites that started in 2002.

Somerset had contracted to buy the property to build market rate housing. But 
Asbury Park residents in 2005 objected to the plan and the city developed a new 
Springwood Avenue Redevelopment Plan under Councilman Johnson for the entire 
seven or eight block-length of Springwood from Memorial Drive to the Neptune 
boundary.

Robert D. Broege, the attorney for Konvitz's estate and companies, said 
Somerset has 45 days to make an appeal. Ralph Zucker, Somerset's president, 
declined20through a spokeswoman to comment.

I do think everyone's happy that it's done, Broege said. We hope it will do 
some good for Asbury Park.

When negotiations to settle the continuing litigation began in September in 
Locascio's chambers, it appeared at first that Somerset might make a new deal 
to pay off Asbury Shores and start building on the land according to the new 
city plan.

But the city responded with certain financial and performance assurances for 
such an agreement and Somerset walked away.

Somerset had sought in 2007 to get Superior Court Judge Lawrence M. Lawson to 
force the city to transfer Asbury Shore's rights to Somerset. But Lawson ruled 
against Somerset. It is that decision, after a series of mediation and 
negotiation attempts, Somerset may still appeal.

We want to get construction going, said Deputy Mayor James Bruno. Now that 
we've got the land, it's time to do the plan.

Konvitz, a friend of the late Asbury Park Mayor Thomas Smith, started building 
small two-bedroom town houses on Springwood in 1990. He built 15 of 75 homes 
priced in the neighborhood of $75,000, but could not sell them. He shut down 
his efforts and said many years later he had lost more than $300,000.

Konvitz was to have paid the city $750,000 for the land, but that never 
happened. Instead, he was given a credit for infrastructure work to offset the 
price of the land. He certified in April 1998 that the amount of money he had 
spent for infrastructure was $139,848.

Asbury Shores did start payi
ng taxes on the 50 lots after they were transferred to the company in 1999 in 
anticipation that Konvitz would build.

In the 1990s, when Konvitz did not build, the barren landscape of the 
once-popular Springwood continued to be marked by poverty and drug dealing. It 
is only in the past few years that the avenue is taking a new direction under 
the city's new development plan and the interest of such groups as Interfaith 
Neighbors and its partner

underdeveloped, and this had a significant social impact on our 
city, Reidy said, referring to the date of civil disturbances.
 
 Councilman Ed Johnson said, This settlement is living proof that 
the past is over and we are moving on to the future.
 
 There could be a holdup on the sale going through if a third 
party, Somerset Development Corp. of Lakewood, decides to pursue an 
appeal of litigation over the Springwood sites that started in 2002.
 
 Somerset had contracted to buy the property to build market rate 
housing. But Asbury Park residents in 2005 objected to the plan and 
the city developed a new Springwood Avenue Redevelopment Plan under 
Councilman Johnson for the entire seven or eight block-length of 
Springwood from Memorial Drive to the Neptune boundary.
 
 Robert D. Broege, the attorney for Konvitz's estate and companies, 
said Somerset has 45 days to make an appeal. Ralph Zucker, 
Somerset's president, declined20through a spokeswoman to comment.
 
 I do think everyone's happy that it's done, Broege said. We 
hope it will do some good for Asbury Park.
 
 When negotiations to settle the continuing litigation began in 
September in Locascio's chambers, it appeared at first that Somerset 
might make a new deal to pay off Asbury Shores and start building on 
the land according to the new city plan.
 
 But the city responded with certain financial and performance 
assurances for such an agreement and Somerset walked away.
 
 Somerset had sought in 2007 to get Superior Court Judge Lawrence 
M. Lawson to force the city to transfer Asbury Shore's rights to 
Somerset. But Lawson ruled against Somerset. It is that decision, 
after a series of mediation and negotiation attempts, Somerset may 
still appeal.
 
 We want to get construction going, said Deputy Mayor James 
Bruno. Now that we've got the land, it's time to do the plan.
 
 Konvitz, a friend of the late Asbury Park Mayor Thomas Smith, 
started building small two-bedroom town houses on Springwood in 
1990. He built 15 of 75 homes priced in the neighborhood of $75,000, 
but could not sell them. He shut down his efforts and said many 
years later he had lost more than $300,000.
 
 Konvitz was to have paid the city $750,000 for the land, but that 
never happened. Instead, he was given a credit for infrastructure 
work to offset the price of the land. He certified in April 1998 
that the amount of money he had spent for infrastructure was 
$139,848.
 
 Asbury Shores did start payi
 ng taxes on the 50 lots after they were transferred to the company 
in 1999 in anticipation that Konvitz would build.
 
 In the 1990s, when Konvitz did not build, the barren landscape of 
the once-popular Springwood continued to be marked by poverty and 
drug dealing. It

I live in AP and I don't agree. All the lights have scared away the 
hookers that use to walk up and down the street. I think people can 
now see what they are getting, and are running away fast. (AP 
hookers are not the best lookers.) I've also noticed a decrease in 
used condoms when walking my dog in that area. The motel behind 
North Beach installed cameras all over the property and crime also 
decreased.

I disagree. It's not the lights that scared the prostitutes away, it's our PD 
and other task 
forces that did it. But there are still prostitutes on Kingsley. Lately, I've 
noticed that one of 
the longtime ones recently returned, and she's be going up and down Kingsley 
every 
single night this week. Last night, another one tried to wave down my car as I 
passed by.

[AsburyPark] Stand Up For Asbury!

2008-11-13 Thread Paul Vail
Our Attorney Ron Gasiorowski has submitted a final bill for his 
legal services. We need to raise $5,000 as soon as possible to pay 
his legal fee. As many of you know, Mr. Gasiorowski successfully 
argued the appeal before Judge Lawson in Freehold. As a result, 
Judge Lawson affirmed the Asbury Park Zoning Board's decision to 
deny Market Street Mission their variances as well as the city's 
decision to shut the Mission down.

Had the Market Street Mission remained open, approximately 1,000 
homeless men would have been brought to Asbury Park every year.  
These men would eventually have been left to fend for themselves on 
Asbury's streets. This would have been disastrous to the city's 
safety and quality of life and would have placed substantial 
financial hardship on our town.

Please be as generous as you possibly can by donating to our legal 
defense fund so that we can pay Mr. Gasiorowski for his fine work. 
He has been there of us since the beginning, now it's our turn to 
show our support for him.

Make your check out to Stand Up For Asbury and send it to:

PO Box 643
Asbury Park
New Jersey 07712

Or go to www.standupforasbury.org and donate by Pay Pal.

Yeah, I could see it. A red light district just like  in Amsterdam. Why fly to 
Holland, or 
Hamburg, when you can come to AP for all your adult needs.
But seriously, the hooker probably has diminished big time, and at the moment, 
it's looks 
like there may be a maximum of three of them patrolling Kingsley these days. 
One of them
appears to keep being sent away, and keeps popping back up. I encountered her 
back in 
the spring. She's a big fan of my dog, and one day, she started telling me 
about how many 
times she'd been to rehab, and how many days she was sober, and about all the 
tragedy in 
her life, but somehow, she can't escape the drugs and prostitute life style. 
It's incredibly 
sad.
There's another new one, very young, who always has a pimp looking guy trailing 
behind, 
usually on a bicycle. That's probably the one Oak made reference too. She's way 
too 
young, and way too attractive to be out there. All I can think that  there must 
be a drug 
habit that she is feeding.

I will post the budget here when it comes to me.

what email address I should use.

If anyone else here wants one emailed to them just let me know.

Use my email address DeSeno @ msn.com.

It is know after 5 and I still don't have the fax so I assume it

Military retirees, were hoping to use this housing. I had friends
living there, while on duty and these places were top shelf and in
mint condition!

On the Post itself, there are brick homes built in the 30's and 40's,
fully rehabilitated and are for officers only, but with the BRAC, the
jobs are hopelessly going to Maryland.  (Aberdeen Proving Ground).

The CECOM building across from the HEX cost millions of dollars,
built during the Reagan Administration in 1981 is scheduled for
demolishing.  Your tax dollars at work!

When they close the Fort, I'll have to shop at Ft. Dix or the tiny
stores in Lakehurst.

When you were growing up, it was a very nice neighborhood.  We spent
our 10th Wedding Anniversary at Freddies and Fredas, was right around
the corner!  Well, the building is still there.  Freda's became
Mishepo's and it's a restaurant, now or was.  You could walk to Mt.
Carmel!

I attended a wedding this past Saturday down in Camden County, at All
Saints Church.  There's nothing like a Catholic wedding with the Mass.
The bridesmaids wore chocolate taffeta dresses, (strapless), with Fall
Bouquets.  The reception was at Luciens Manor in Berlin, NJ. 
Beautiful fresh seafood, oysters and clams on the half shell, jumbo
shrimp, hot and cold buffet, open bar throughout, sit down dinner,
filet mignon and boneless fish.  The dessert room was filled with
miniature Italian pastries, fresh fruit, hot parfaits. You name it,
they had it.  A New York style wedding in NJ, (they're from Staten
Island).  Wish you ALL were there!

Hi Sharon. Friday growing up was Pizza from either Freddies or Fredas. 
The only comparable pizza I can find now is TJ's on Main Street, which 
I love.

Pizza in Howell sucks.  Most of the food in Howell sucks.  We drive 
from Howell to TJ's when we want pizza.

Later on Friday nights was the Friday Fish Fry at the Elks on 8th 
Avenue.  A good inexpensive dinner served cafeteria style with all the 
comraderie of old time Asbury folks.

After dinner we retired upstairs to the bocce court or out the bar.

I'm getting misty eyed here.

Sometimes I feel like I'd give anything to be back home like that.

2008-11-13 Thread juicy jenn
I thought that this discussion board was a nice place to keep up on current 
events and also to talk, discuss, and debate things that matter to all of us, 
in a city, that we all chose to live in...But instead these debates go on for 
days, with the same 6 people, that tend to attack each other on this forum..It 
feels more like a gossip column that most people dont understand..Thats whats 
boring..

And as far as your rape statement, and for calling out the Lanes, you should 
just ask me what the film was, and I would have let you know that if you saw 
something that looked like rape on the screen that offended you, it would have 
been taken off the screen. Bands tend to bring films that fall into the genre 
of B films, or off the wall artsy things..We do not censor what they chose, and 
if anyone, complains, of course we take it off. If you did in fact know me, or 
anyone that works at the Lanes, you would know how silly your paragraph 
was..Now I am boring myself..
