ALL BUT A-TEAM DENY AFFILIATION WITH 42 BALLOT MESSENGERS TWO MORE MESSENGERS SIGN AFFIDAVITS By Molly Mulshine Three of the four tickets in the Asbury Park council race have denied affiliation with 42 people who are acting as ballot messengers in the election. Campaign managers for the AP Out Front, Forward Asbury Park and One Asbury tickets have said their candidates are not using volunteers or paying workers to deliver messenger ballots to voters. Voters may designate a messenger to bring them a ballot to complete, which can then be mailed or hand-delivered back to election offices for tabulation. The remaining slate, the A-Team, has paid 10 campaign workers to act as messengers, compensating them $100 per person for gathering 10 messenger ballots each, candidate Duanne Small has confirmed. Two more of the people listed as messengers, Knowryl Hammary and Byron Hall, are named as chair person and treasurer, respectively, for all five A-Team candidates' personal campaign accounts. The A-Team candidates refuse to disclose whether any of the remaining 30 messengers are affiliated with their campaign. The A-Team candidates are Duanne Small, Jim Keady, Nora Hyland, Remond Palmer and Daniel Harris. Following allegations of mishandling of ballots from the campaign manager of the AP Out Front ticket, County Clerk M. Claire French decided to require all messengers to sign affidavits affirming that they understand that breaking the rules governing the messenger ballot process is a third-degree crime. French mailed the affidavits to all messengers on April 17. The Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office is now investigating the ballot process in the city as well, French said. The Asbury Park Sun sent A-Team campaign manager John Napolitani a list of questions regarding the use of messengers by the A-Team campaign. The Sun asked about messengers' affiliation with the campaign, whether more messengers were paid, and how the group has ensured that ballots are delivered directly to voters as required. The candidates chose not to respond to the questions, Napolitani said, and instead issued the following statement on behalf of all five candidates: The A-Team is following all applicable election laws and guidelines as outlined by the County Clerk's office. We are committed to ensuring that the citizens of Asbury Park have a free and fair election. Reached by phone today, A-Team candidate Duanne Small reiterated the group's statement, and added that he and his running mates are working closely with the County Clerk to resolve issues. He said he does not know who the campaign's designated messengers are, and he does not know who is in charge of his campaign's messengers. Whatever the county requires, that's what we will abide by, he said. Two more messengers signed their affidavits since last week, according to records in the election offices of the County Clerk. Those messengers are Jaisun Lewinski and Pamela S. Gideon. Thirty-five of the 42 messengers still have not returned their affidavits. Since the affidavit requirement was put in place, no new messengers have stepped up to request ballots, according to the election offices, although some existing messengers have requested additional ballots. If messengers do not return their affidavits, the Prosecutor's Office will follow

That is the fine internet media outlet edited by the astute and quite beautiful Ms. Mulshine (daughter of the legendary Star-Ledger columnist, the great Paul Mulshine). It is part of the Tri-City news' media empire. It seems Ms. Raphelson is reincarnating the spirit of Benito Musselini. She is clearly mandating that every voter in the Towers must vote for the One AsburyPark ticket for council. She also wants to prohibit any other candidate from speaking to the Tower electorate. Now, I personally think everyone should have the right to vote for whomever they want without being bullied. I also believe all 22 candidates should have equal access to the Towers electorate. That is the law. I think Ms. Rachelson has overstepped her bounds and an inquiry should be made to the ACLU to investigate the matter. I hope this doesn't lead to potential litigation against Ms Raphelson and the Tower directors. Perhaps the fine people whose reputations have been besmirched should investigate. Wasn't the Towers recently refurbished with money from HUD. That's a federal agency. Should Attorney General Eric Holder's office be contacted? This may be very serious. Anyway, I would expect the nice people on the OneAsbury ticket to all together publically rebute this un-Constitutional behavior. It just isn't right!

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.

Several posters have noticed that perhaps MM has not managed the ConHall in the best way. I agree, and will add it is becoming evident the business model of MM and the needs of Asbury Park are not a good match. A look at MM as a company and the projects they engage in shows they are very experienced with retail shopping malls, which are the core of their business. Residential development appears to be secondary only as a means to create retail traffic by way of 'shoppers' in close proximity. lifestyle Centers is the buzz word. While this business model would seem to fit the current redevelopment plan as adopted - it is failing since the 3000+ condos have never become a reality - which they should have at this point in the project timeline. It has been 10 years of --- redevelopment? This may be a blessing for Asbury Park since the adopted plan has never been appropriate for Asbury Park - which I have been saying for the past decade. The Plan needs to be amended to address our strength, that of a heritage, entertainment, resort destination. Which brings us to the ConHall (and Casino, Pavilions, Hotels, etc). MM has no experience, that I can find, managing entertainment venues such as the Paramount and ConHall. It is no surprise that they are under utilized - it does not fit their business model. Nor does the remnants of the Casino In addition - being a National Historic Site brings its own set of assets and responsibilities which they have difficulty dealing with. A large scale shift must be adopted by MM and iStar to embrace development of a historic year round entertainment destination. That is what Asbury Park needs and is designed for.

The City Council and city manager have concocted a sham wherein the city would sponsor the issuance of up to $58 million in bonds to finance the infrastructure on the waterfront. They say that this proposal is innovative. It is not innovative, unless you think giving away our tax dollars is innovative. They say no one in the state has proposed such a plan. Yes, that's probably true because no other municipality could be so irresponsible as to even think of proposing such a sham. Without getting into detail, the proposed plan would give 40 percent of the conventional real estate taxes to the developer to pay off these bonds. This gift to the developer would last for 30 years. In the past, the developer was always responsible to pay 100 percent of the total cost of the infrastructure, and that is the way it works in every other municipality. I say, let the developer, a public corporation whose CEO is making millions of dollars, and the wealthy people buying their $500,000 townhouses be responsible to pay for their own infrastructure. This plan is irrational. Asbury Park is still broke and under state supervision and has very high real estate tax rates. Its debt is astronomical, and yet the council wants to give our tax revenues away to a public corporation. The overtaxed residents of Asbury Park should demand that the plan be withdrawn by the city immediately. This council`s accomplishments have been higher taxes (a 40 percent increase) and higher debt ($60 million). This plan would continue their legacy of financial and leadership failure.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: The flag on CH.....
I definitely do realize what they have probably spent, and I also realize it will be years before they see black. I'm not disputing that. What I am disputing is that the flag has been replaced regularly like I was told from Madison Marquette (because it has not been replaced in well over a year). I run past that flag every morning, and would have surely noticed a new one flying. And after being told by 3 different city officials today that they have personally asked the flag to be replaced several times over the last year with no success, I do not believe a word from MM That flag is the first thing people will notice when getting to the Waterfront. They certainly will not notice the unnecessary little flags hanging on the boardwalk itself until they park their cars and walk up there. And if the little boardwalk flags do get damaged and stolen as much as I am told they do, why bother to continue putting them up? Isn't that a blatant waste of money? Could that same money been used on a big flag for the Paramount? MM could easily buy flags for the Paramount in bulk and save money. (for as little as $47 per flag, in a 6x10 foot size, for a high wind/bright sun flag) For less than $100, they can easily replace this. Unfortunately, I now have to do what our redeveloper should have done before Memorial Day Weekend. I hear what your saying, I truly do, but this is not replacing 300 feet of sidewalk, or finishing the outside of CH, or fixing the Casino, this is replacing a simple flag, that is the single most recognized symbol of our country..not a huge request or bank buster in my opinion On 28 June 2011 14:38, Dave dsh...@yahoo.com wrote: ** at the risk of inciting the group, i didn't think the email from MM was bad at all.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: City declares Istar in default.....in APP
Glenn I'm not going to sit her and give you a list of my accomplishments in fighting the city for change. Have I acted? Damn Straight..Is there more I can do? Probably, actually definitely, but i have learned, from both personal experience, and from the experience of others, that i need to pick and choose my battles very very carefully. Have YOU personally ever dealt with getting building permits for your home in AP? Or had the inspectors come into your home in AP? (no you havent) These are just two small reasons why i pick and choose very carefully what i want to voice my opinions about at the Council Meetings (in which i attend regularly) Though most of what i've done to help with change does NOT involve the redevelopment of the Waterfront, i did take my happy ass out ON FOOT to the Southwest Section of the city, (as well as the Northwest side) with a clipboard and a petition to help STOP CHANGE, and that change was the removal of our trees downtown, it was a lost cause but i still put in the time to walk around some unsafe streets (sans my dog), to obtain a few hundred signatures. While doing this, i opened MANY residents eyes to events/situations taking place within the city government that they were previously unaware of. I've also helped two HS Students from making the horrible decision of slinging dope on the corners for one of the local sects. Now i'm not taking 100% of the credit for this, but i did help with their school work, take them places, write letters to colleges for them etc etc. One is currently attending Montclair State and the other is hopefully heading to Wagner this year, so i changed (or helped change) the direction of our cities youth, albeit 1 at a time. This past summer i also brought Elements skateboard company into the city to film one of their videos. Granted only 12 minutes of footage made it into the final video, but there is still that Asbury Park, NJ at the bottom of the video, so add some free promotion for the city as well I've bought property in the city, i pay my taxes, and i'm currently working on bringing a MUCH needed business into the city this Janaury (again this is where the permits and inspectors also become an an issue) so i'd appreciate in the future, before you step on your soapbox again accusing me of doing nothing, ASK FIRST oh and thanks for having that shit removed from behind the Empress, but now my Aunt sees it everyday from her apartment, could you possibly get it removed from there and actually have it put to use? Or is moving an eyesore from one lot to another ok because you dont frequent that end of Kingsley? Now before i got back to work, in regards to the city council, the city (and Maureen please correct me here because i may be off a bit) is run under Municipality Manager Law, i think this was instilled as a law in the late 1800's in NJ. Anyhow, under this law, the council has very little power, typically they have ZERO Executive responsibility, they generally sit over council meetings and thats it. They make NO EXECUTIVE decisions when it comes to the town or city, this is why there is a City Manager in these types of municipalities.

Sure we can use these vacant lots for parking, but how long with that last? Based on the crowd growth over the last couple of years, probably not very long. Thats a reality, an unfortunate one, but reality none the less. Look at any other established beach town, and tell me who has enough parking. I lived in Belmar, Manasquan, Ortley, and Long Branch and dealt with parking issues in each one of them. When i lived in Belmar there were times i had to take a cab to my car, how absurd is that?
