[AsburyPark] Re: How to pay for sprinklers? Perhaps its time to call Mr Springsteen.......
Sorry, but let's not be so quick to throw a benefit for MM. They have ample resources and have had a number of years to address/ fix the problem of the sprinklers (and honestly, it's comical that they are just now discovering that staging concerts in Convention Hall and the Paramount has not been economically feasibletheir business model for entertainment is broken).

No Springsteen - he's in Europe. Love the chain link fences and barricades all over townjust like being in County lock-up. I hope this event is successful and that all goes well. I have no worries about the Asbury Park residents being the source of trouble and problemsI'm more concerned with the people from out of town who will come here, treat our town poorly, scream, yell, and carry on all night as they wander and drive through the streets between the teenagers and the drunken grandmothers here to see Bon Jovi, it will be an interesting weekend.

[AsburyPark] Re: SOME VERY SERIOUS FINAL THOUGHTS ON WESLEY GROVE........
I'm not so sure about your statistics on the racial make-up of AP, at least based on the 2010 census. But more importantly, I don't think the racial or minority composition of the residents at WG really matters - from my POV it is irrelevant and meaningless. What matters is that many of the residents at WG bought here because they want to be here - like Cathy (who posted earlier), we bought a few years ago, moved here full-time, and remain active in the community on both sides of the tracks (and like most of the people who own here - did not spend upwards of $500,000+ to do so). We like the sense of community within WG but also within the entire town, and throughout the years we have been here we have found that there are many people who want to make a difference and help revitalize AP. Madison Marquette is only one part of the equation (whether that is good or bad is a matter of perspective) - what matters most is people working together to make the city better in big ways and small waysrevitalizing the boardwalk, taking steps to give kids more outlets and after-school activities, helping rebuild all parts of the retail and business community, and working together to make the city safer. No, I haven't been here through the lean years but I am here now, trying to make a difference like many others in WG and throughout the city and both proud and happy to be here. There are problems and issues but none that we can't work through and none that can't be fixed through sensible actions, reasonable conversations, and working together (btw- one of my favorite memories of the past year was going to the high school and watching the football team play week after week, and then journeying to Trenton to see them capture the state title - it was a proud moment for all of us,,,black and white/gay and straight/ parents, teachers, and just interested spectators who were proud of our kids and proud to say that we were from Asbury Park) [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: bamboozle.....
Have to say that I'm not so wild about Bamboozle coming to AP (and it has nothing to do with age or music choice - love the Foos and I've been to other Bamboozles in the pastsadly not a Bon Jovi fan). My concern has to do with our town's ability to handle a festival of this size. I understand we are getting $200K as a fee, but can our infrastructure support what will be required. With 40,000 concert goers coming to town, will our roads accommodate them? Traffic on Asbury Avenue, Sunset, Ocean, etc could be backed up for miles and affect residents who don't really care about the concert. Police? EMT's? Will we have kids and concert goers sleeping in cars and on the beach (given the number of hotels in town, doesn't sound like we'll have too many accommodation options)? And I think to expect that this will be beneficial to the restaurants in town isn't realistic given the demographics of the target audience.. Is there a plan in place?

[AsburyPark] Re: 2003
That's hitting the nail on the head! I've posted about this previously - for all the debate about parking and what's happening in AP, the real problem downtown has to do with specialty retailers that do not draw mainstream consumers. Asbury has a wealth of restaurants, coffee shops, and bars but there is no real base of business to bring people to Cookman or Bangs or Lake, etc. What exactly is the town/Chamber/MM doing to transform the town into a more vibrant retail sector that can support business?

[AsburyPark] Re: Downtown paid parking went into effect today
Definitely -this to me is the guts of the issue with AP's revitalization and the rebuilding of the downtown area. Right now, AP is all about food and nightlife - primarily restaurants and bars. There are a few specialty businesses - some that have carved out a successful niche for themselves - but retail for the masses/mainstream is non-existent. And despite the triCity's constant preaching about suburban conformity and the coolness factor we have in attracting the Brooklyn crowds, for this city to truly grow we need a more active effort at attracting significant businesses that draw from a wider demographic and that can exist profitably. I'm not ready to embrace a GAP or Banana Republic Store (especially with the outlet mall a short drive away and both Monmouth and Freehold Malls maintaining a significant presence in chain stores), but we need a business model that includes retail stores that provide that destination experience. We also need to marry the best interests of Madison Marquette which is truly only concerned with leasing retail space on the boardwalk and building more condos/townhouses with the needs of the downtown businesses. There are a number of towns and communities in NJ that have created vibrant downtowns that act as destinations (Montclair, Westfield, Westwood, and Madison-Chatham as well as Princeton and Lambertville). Make this an attractive destination and parking will stop being such a major concern. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

She stands in the middle of the street, flagging down cars, begging for money while yelling and screaming Heyyy Hey over and over, at all hours of the day and night. The other person is a bit less obnoxious and often spends his time being incredibly loud while he's on his non-stop drunken stupor. These folks are making things a bit uncomfortable in our neighborhood. Every time somebody comes to visit me, the lady waddles across the street and confronts my friends for money. I've even had to call the PD on her when she was pulling down her pants to pee right in the middle of 1st at 5 pm a few weeks ago. Having the PD visit there 4 times in one evening such as last night is an incredible waste of our PD. Nothing ever changes. They talk to them, and when the PD drives away it's right back to their bullshit. The boarding houses management does nothing. And the house also appears to be a hotbed of drug dealing.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Not in AP.....
As a relatively new resident to AP (one of those who bought into Wesley Grove in 2009), I'm not sure how much new residential construction the town can support right now. I think the biggest challenge and most important thing that needs to be done is to make our retail and commercial sectors viable - not just in a non-conformist manner like the TriCity News continually advocates, but with an eye towards providing goods and services that benefit all residents. The key to growing any city is making the infrastucture viable. We've got a significant number of restaurants in operation (most of which are pretty good), but we need more businesses that reach beyond select niches and appeal to a broader range of customers and residents. The schools need help, there is still a significant issue of homelessness and crime, kids need more activities to get them off the streets, and we need to do a better job of making this one community. Above all else, we have to find a way of attracting jobs and new businesses to the community.

I will say it again, it will be very very hard for AP to attract 3,000 year round households. NJ is loosing jobs like crazy. You need to be within easy commuting distance to an employment center, or create a place where people will want to live despite the commute or they are retired or independently wealthy. And for families, its a chicken and egg thing. To get families you need good schools. And the latter will only happen is when you get more of a mix of families in AP to be involved with the school and their children's education. So if you build a lot of condos, you will depend upon weekenders not necessarily summer people. I am a weekender. A lot of us that own houses here are.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: So you want to save a theatre?
Here's what pisses me off about this town - recently the topic of the Baronet was brought up in town council meetings and no one indicated anything about the roof collapsingthe only thing mentioned was that there was a mold issue which would need to be addressed. I find it hard to believe that the owners suddenly realized that the roof had collapsed after such a brutally hard winter (didn't anyone check on their investment?). I am not a builder or an expert on construction, but wouldn't it be possible for someone to incorporate elements of the old structure within a renovation project - and yes, I know that would require someone with $$$ to buy/renovate, but in the same way that the Charms Building with all its history was leveled to make way for a nice new vacant lot, couldn't someone with vision have looked at other alternatives??? In the haste to rebuild and redevelop this town, it seems that certain parties are interested in taking down any links to the past and making this look like dozens of cookie-cutter developments that dot Texas, Illinois, Maryland, etc. History has its place in this city - in fact, it's a huge part of what we are and who we are. To ignore it (or cover it up under new facades and shiny chrome and concrete structures) is doing a huge disservice to everyone who lived here, lives here, or wants to live here. We don't need to become another Long Branch or another Pier Village - the last thing we need is another parking lot (which can charge $10 - 20.00 for the right to park), or a vacant lot.

Sadly, the issue of the trees being cut down has been going on since the beginning of the year - there was pretty extensive coverage in the tri-City News and the Coaster (don't recall that stellar beacon of journalism the Asbury Park Press quite catching on to the coverage). From conversations with people in City Hall, there was no other option or alternative and the trees had to go..it seemed to me back then (as it still does), that the utility companies and our local government saw an opportunity to re-do all the pipes and electrical lines using Fed $$, and took it.

Cathryn. And there are those who see a boogie man behind every door. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: sublime
Interesting that the night of Sublime, my wife and I were on the Boardwalk and we didn't see a single policemen anywhere - there were a few by the SP but usually there are at least a few of the little Madison Marquette rental/robo-officers patrolling in pairs. We hung out on a bench between Langosta and Boards and not a single officer wandered by. We saw a few by the SP working the parking meters and keeping the under 21 crowd in line, but I would have expected more of a presence.

I certainly wouldn't want people to stop coming to A.P. I just want them to pay for parking. I (and all my neighbors) would also be willing to pay for parking via a resident parking permit. It's a win/win situation for the city, residents AND our beloved visitors. Oak: I don't think anyone is writing we don't want visitors... just a solution to an obvious and easily fixed problem. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, Hinge hing...@... wrote: I think my idea is better. All of my neighbors agree. The growth of AP is awesome. I love it. It also brings growing pains. Every single one of my neighbors agrees about Resident Parking Only It's better than doing nothing and just watching the problem grow as AP continues to move forward. I believe the time to act is before next summer. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, oakdorf oakdorf@ wrote: The night of the concert there was alot going on people were sitting, climbing anything they could to see... They were siting and standing on the tops of the containers of the toilets- and not being told to get down. It was a zoo. then again, it was also a zoo this saturday night as well. That's because more and more and more people are coming to Asbury Park and Ocean Grove. Both towns were down in the dumps for years. OG recovered first. AP, even they way it is today - people are coming down to the boardwalk and to the downtown. People drive. People need to park. Parking in AP was a problem since the automobile became popular. I told you how to solve the parking problem. Pray for rain every weekend. Tear down the pony, the boardwalk and close up the bars. Don't hold any events in town. I promise you, people won't come and forget about parking your car, because when you do, it would get stolen. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!
