Madison Marquette will be scaling back on the community events it produces  
during the summer, Mottola said. The weekly fireworks and bonfires are 
going to  be discontinued, he said. 
 
The fireworks and bonfires bring lots of people down to the  boards during 
the weekdays..People have been flocking to Asbury Park to see  our weekly 
firewworks .These people may even decide to go into our shops and  spend 
money.More revenue the shopkeepers won't have.

[AsburyPark] Thoughts

2013-04-01 Thread oakdorf
1. Spite yourself and your tenants.

2. Pension money disappearing for blind investing

3. Long branch breaking ground on extension of pier village. This phase condos 
for sale.

4. Time to do the 4th Ave pavilion and west portion of carousel. Most expensive 
catshelter 4th Ave. Sorry.  

5. Move offices off the boardwalk. Classic case of wasting prime space.


6. Acts insurance carriers won't cover performances in ch if.its not insurable. 
Jigs liability. I would think. 

Maybe heads at mm woke up. Or is istar. Promo property

[AsburyPark] Disclosure

2013-04-01 Thread wernerapnj
I replied to a post from TDA732 on the Star Ledger site about the Sprinkler 
fiasco - I repeat it here

TDA732
It astounds me that, no matter what, people can turn a positive into a 
negative. Asbury Park has completely revived itself. As a woman in her 
mid-twenties I frequent AP often with friends. I'll be honest, the first time 
it was mentioned, I thought my friends had lost their minds – AP does not have 
the best reputation, but the city has completely revitalized itself. The people 
in office should be rewarded with cheers of gratitude, but all I see is grief 
that it is not being done fast enough.

Your experience and conclusions are very common of those who have a limited 
view of what is going on in Asbury Park. Yes - there have been improvements - 
the common reaction is to declare 'It's better than it was' - which is also 
true. 
 
However, that is not the correct way to measure the success of a redevelopment 
project. That is the issue - A declaration of a redevelopment area allows the 
taking of private property and turning it over to a redeveloper, this is a very 
serious power of the government and should not be taken lightly. 
 
In return for this exercise of government power the developer commits to 
develop according to an adopted plan. Asbury Park gave many concessions to 
attract development. For example, Allowing $12M in tax liens to be paid off 
with $6M - Leaving the City still in debt by $6M. The City also sold ALL its 
public property along the beachfront for a very undervalued price. That 
includes the Convention Hall, Paramount Theater, Casino Arena, Casino Carousel 
House, Central Heating Plant, 5 existing Pavilions, Building sites of 4 
additional Pavilions, Public street and blocks of public property. 
 
That was 10 years ago and at this time the Development was to have been 
completed with all the former public properties restored (CH, CAS, HP, PAVS, 
etc), 400,000 square feet of retail space and 3000 condominium units. Please 
note that none of this had happened. 
 
Instead the City is now $60M in debt instead of $6M. But visually - It's 
better than it was

For the record in case anyone is not in the know.Bamboozle was already
deemed to not be happening before the foo fighters took the stage last year

It had nothing to do with what Mottola says. The founders splitplain

 When the new council takes over they should give him the lifetime honor
 of, 'Official Asbury Park Historian,' . The man talks the talk. MM is not
 going anywhere. Let's work together. Take note, Gary threw Reidy under the
 proverbial bus by blaming the city manager for failure to negotiate in good
 faith in luring Bamboozle back. Mottola is quite brilliant. He has thus
 tipped his hand, clearly indicating he will wait until after the May 14
 election when presumably a new council enters with a new city manager.
 Smart move! He has given up on Loffredo and Reidy. Gary also makes a
 mistake however when he talks about his vision for Asbury. His job is to
 concentrate on the boardwalk, not the entire municipality. That's for the
 elected officials to worry about. If Gary wants to rule the roost he can
 run for Mayor. However, I too tend to favor MM simply because I know how
 pathetic Loffredo, Henderson and Sanders are on the council. Reidy isn't
 much better. The Uribe CFO scandel should have gotten Reidy fired.
 Absolutely a disgrace. Asbury Park is a multi-cultural city. Everyone must
 get a slice of the pie. We must work together, uniting Asbury Park. I like
 that idea. Its April Fool's Day, no doubt in honor of the incompetents in
 city hall. By-the-way...Henry Vaccaro is one of the all-time greats!
