Re: [AsburyPark] Semi Pro Basketball in Asbury park?
Here's another former Asbury team. http://www.jerseyshoregourmet.com/miscellaneous/Asbury/Move_Squires.htm Skip Bernstein[EMAIL PROTECTED]http://adogsbreakfast.com - Original Message - From: arhythmick To: AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, November 10, 2006 11:45 AM Subject: [AsburyPark] Semi Pro Basketball in Asbury park? I stumbled upon the fact that there used to be a semi-pro basketball team by the name of the Jersey Shorecats of the USBL who played their home games at Convention Hall. It seems they disbanded around 2001 and part of the reason a new owner didn't step up was because of the state of the Convention Hall facility (no locker rooms for one thing). Does anyone have any info on this team? Does anyone think it would be fun to try to get a new team to play here? I am attaching the article here...The Asbury Park-based New Jersey ShoreCats professional basketball franchise has suspended operations and will not field a team this season, president and part-owner Spiro Michals said yesterday. Michals and his father, George, majority owners of the team, said they want to get out of the day-to-day basketball business to concentrate on other family ventures and have been trying to sell the team for several months. Spiro Michals said several groups expressed interest in buying the 3-year-old United States Basketball League franchise, but a deal couldn't be worked out before the USBL season begins in late April."We do have someone interested in buying the franchise. The problem that was hanging us up was convincing them to stay in Asbury," he said. "They're still interested in buying the franchise and I think they're interested in bringing it back here, but I'm not sure." Spiro Michals said his family would be willing to remain as part-owners if they were not required to run the team. The ShoreCats played approximately 15 games a year at Asbury Park Convention Hall. Several prospective buyers were disappointed that Convention Hall has no locker rooms or shower facilities. Since the team's inception, the city and ShoreCats had discussed sharing the cost of upgrading the facility by adding showers and locker rooms, but never reached an agreement. The ShoreCats were considered one of the most stable and successful franchises in the 16-year-old USBL, which plays from late April to early July. Attendance has been steadily shrinking, however, since the team averaged about 2,000 fans per game in its debut season in 1998, with NBA Hall of Famer Rick Barry as coach. When Barry left to coach another USBL team last season, the ShoreCats averaged fewer than 1,000 fans despite posting a franchise-best 20-12 record. According to Spiro Michals, the team hovered around profitability despite the reduced attendance.Jersey ShoreCats basketball franchise to disband Former Shorecats coach NBA Hall of Famer Rick BarryBut when he compared the small return on investment with the amount of time and effort required to keep the team at or near profitability, Michals said, he couldn't justify keeping the ShoreCats when similar efforts in the family's other businesses -- which include publishing, online and other ventures -- bring much better returns."I loved hanging around with the players and the coaches and all the hype with Rick Barry was great," Michals said. 'It's just unfortunate that to have those two months of great times, you work your tail off for 10 months just to get to a small measure of profitability. I'm not sorry we tried. The team still has a strong sponsor base even today. I got a ton of calls this year from people looking for tickets and group things. "Unfortunately, we just don't have the time and energy to put into running the team." Mike Sweet, general manager of the USBL's Pennsylvania ValleyDawgs and the former ShoreCats director of scouting, said the league hopes the ShoreCats will be back next year."It's disappointing to the league, because we did feel it was a very good franchise -- from Day 1, when it opened, up to last year," he said. "I know the league is disappointed. We really liked the area and the group."

[AsburyPark] and some think Canada Geeses are a problem
This is an actual letter sent to a man named Ryan DeVries by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Quality, State of Pennsylvania. This guy's response is hilarious, but read the State's letter before you get to the response letter. SUBJECT: DEQ File No.97-59-0023; T11N; R10W, Sec. 20; Lycoming County Dear Mr. DeVries: It has come to the attention of the Department of Environmental Quality that there has been recent unauthorized activity on the above referenced parcel of property. You have been certified as the legal landowner and/or contractor who did the following unauthorized activity: Construction and maintenance of two wood debris dams across the outlet stream of Spring Pond. A permit must be issued prior to the start of this type of activity. A review of the Department's files shows that no permits have been issued. Therefore, the Department has determined that this activity is in violation of Part 301, Inland Lakes and Streams, of the Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Act, Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, being sections 324.30101 to 324.30113 of the Pennsylvania Compiled Laws, annotated. The Department has been informed that one or both of the dams partially failed during a recent rain event, causing debris and flooding at downstream locations. We find that dams of this nature are inherently hazardous and cannot be permitted. The Department therefore orders you to cease and desist all activities at this location, and to restore the stream to a free-flow condition by removing all wood and brush forming the dams from the stream channel. All restoration work shall be completed no later than January 31, 2006. Please notify this office when the restoration has been completed so that a follow-up site inspection may be scheduled by our staff. Failure to comply with this request or any further unauthorized activity on the site may result in this case being referred for elevated enforcement action. We anticipate and would appreciate your full cooperation in this matter. Please feel free to contact me at this office if you have any questions. Sincerely, David L. Price District Representative and Water Management Division. Here is the actual response sent back by Mr. DeVries: Re: DEQ File No. 97-59-0023; T11N; R10W, Sec. 20; Lycoming County Dear Mr. Price, Your certified letter dated 12/17/02 has been handed to me to respond to. I am the legal landowner but not the Contractor at 2088 Dagget Lane, Trout Run, Pennsylvania. A couple of beavers are in the (State unauthorized) process of constructing and maintaining two wood "debris" dams across the outlet stream of my Spring Pond. While I did not pay for, authorize, nor supervise their dam project, I think they would be highly offended that you call their skillful use of natures building materials "debris." I would like to challenge your department to attempt to emulate their dam project any time and/or any place you choose. I believe I can safely state there is no way you could ever match their dam skills, their dam resourcefulness, their dam ingenuity, their dam persistence, their dam determination and/or their dam work ethic. As to your request, I do not think the beavers are aware that they must first fill out a dam permit prior to the start of this type of dam activity. My first dam question to you is: (1) Are you trying to discriminate against my Spring Pond Beavers, or (2) do you require all beavers throughout this State to conform to said dam request? If you are not discriminating against these particular beavers, through the Freedom of Information Act, I request completed copies of all those other applicable beaver dam permits that have been issued. Perhaps we will see if there really is a dam violation of Part 301, Inland Lakes and Streams, of the Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Act, Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, being sections 324.30101 to 324.30113 of the Pennsylvania Compiled Laws, annotated. I have several concerns. My first concern is, aren't the beavers entitled to legal representation? The Spring Pond Beavers are financially destitute and are unable to pay for said representation -- so the State will have to provide them with a dam lawyer. The Department's dam concern that either one or both of the dams failed during a recent rain event, causing flooding, is proof that this is a natural occurrence, which the Department is required to protect. In other words, we should leave the Spring Pond Beavers alone rather than harassing them and calling their dam names. If you want the stream "restored" to a dam free-flow condition please contact the beavers -- but if you are going to arrest them, they obviously did not pay any attention to your dam letter, they being unable to read English. In my humble opinion, the Spring Pond Beavers have a right to build their unauthorized dams as long as the sky is blue, the grass is green and water flows downstream. They have

" Tommy's article is over for me when he states that he is a fan of the Fishman brothers. will take him at his word, sometimes I question if he really believes what he writes or does he do it simply to get a reaction. This isn't the first time, and it won't be the last, that Tommy is wrong. The simple fact of the matter is that the Baronet is a 1913 Art Deco theatre. I don't think we have anymore of those in town. Have we not lost enough? Have we learned nothing? Tommy D, you're better than that article." On this board I think Dan to be one of our best contributors and I give great weight to his opinions, statements and observations; but on DeSeno he is wrong, excepting for Tom's love of The Fishman. However, that infatuation is primarily mercenary; Tom bought a unit in the Grant last year, hence if Larry's greedy deal succeeds Tom's purchase looks a comparative bargain. I've experienced Tom DeSeno (aka bluebishop82) in various modes during the last 4 or 5 years; I believe Tom to possibly be bright but clearly a hard working guy of little imagination, surprisingly narrowly defined interests, aesthetics, socialization and any capacity for empathetic understanding and growth. His writings reflect this analysis, to my surprise his behavior in court, he is a lawyer, is a repetition of his prose. In both written and, even more so, oral argument, he is consistent only in having failed to learn when to shut up. Tom writes not to stir thought or debate but to release demons, which still possess him; as the last of the Neanderthals, my apologies to those people, he provides proof that not all dinosaurs are dead. Having appeared against him once in court, I can attest that his oral argument is equally thoughtless, illogical and pointless as are his writings. He's managed to convince himself that he's of the spirit or lineage of "daughters of the American Revolution" despite being of Italian immigrant stock; he's most comfortable with fellows of the extreme right of the Republican Party, despite that party's recent disavowal of the Hitler youth and other extreme trappings of the fascist period. Obviously high energy searching for an outlet; initially he thought it law, has given us way too much of his short diversion as writer and now haunts the Republican Party believing himself to be the 2nd coming of Christ. Curiously, for a guy trapped in antiquity, he has no appreciation for things old, is infatuated by the trappings of today's consumerism and becomes quite aroused at the prospect of meeting his dream machinethe biggest, baddest, most fuel guzzling of monster trucks. Is he better than his most recent regurgitation on" the paper that [wishes it] cares"? I think not. Yahoo!

" Canada geese populations, observed at many locations including municipal parks, recreational fields and corporate centers, are disseminating parasites called Giardia spp. cysts." This is a phenomenon of population boom; great densities of geese bring an unwanted bonus of disease and pestilence, when in balance with predators and food supply this rarely happens. Another of Canada's residents, the beaver, is similarly afflicted when out of it natural balance; nature's answer in that case is "beaver fever", which similarly slows beaver reproduction and can infect humans who drink water used by those so infected.

[AsburyPark] Re: Homeless -- Canada Goose
" a post from "mog" (man of god?) I say he is full of Canada Goose shit (currently a hot topic in another group)." As a dual citizen of Canada and the US, I am perhaps overly sensitive to the ease and frequency with which Americans belittle the `great white north'. Of particular note, and I suspect primary cause, the near daily bitching about the Canada Goose (Branta Canadensis/ Bernache du Canada), which is native to the Great Plains and due to its mimicry of the Snow Bunting's (Plectrophenax nivalis) yen for travel combined with its affinity for abusing the hospitality of its hosts; has become by both residency and sheer numbers, the American Goose. The Canada (aka American) Goose is unique in being non-migratory, in comparison to the other subspecies; therefore so long as its adopted neighbors insist on creating ideal habitat, lush freshly mown lawns accompanied by lakes and ponds, and an absence of significant predation, they'll not leave. I find this particularly ironic in light of recent fears expressed re Mexican migration, which this government seems to think the building of walls will rectify; to stop geese will require the addition of a roof.

[AsburyPark] What's a "Deud"
`What's a "Deud," dude?' It's a biblical quote; you know Saint Steve's love of all things biblical. Of course, due to our patronizing saint's difficulty spelling and constructing sentences, he fucked up; what he meant to type is "deuts", biblical slang for those who follow the teachings of the book of Deuteronomy. Deuteronomy is the fifth book of the Hebrew Bible. It is part of Judaism's Torah - the first segment of the Tanakh. It later became part of Christianity's Old Testament. Its Hebrew name is Devarim דברים ("words"), which comes from the opening phrase "Eleh ha-devarim" ("These are the words..."). The term can also stretch to mean "discourses" or "talks", as is generally the case with the Greek word "logos". Yahoo!

Are there ills in a capitalistic society? Sure. Is everything the fault of those in the upper income brackets? No. Your views are obsolete. While it is difficult to get out of urban, minority poverty, it is possible and there is plenty of help available. All the money in the world is not going to get a person out who merely wants a handout. I have lived and worked my entire life in racially-mixed, urban environments. I don't have that white, suburban fear of minorities. I have ridden the subways my entire life to work and for the most part, being white, I was the minority. I know that the vast majority of "minorities" are upstanding, working citizens. It is only a very small percentage of minorities in poor urban areas that some in white America use as their perspective for minorities as a whole."

[AsburyPark] Re: Developer Agreements - the Article
Square Feet In Major Projects, Agreeing Not to Disagree The Jerde Partnership An artist's rendering of NoHo Commons, a mixed-use project in North Hollywood. Article Tools Sponsored By By TERRY PRISTIN Published: June 14, 2006 To blunt opposition to its proposed Atlantic Yards project in Brooklyn, Forest City Ratner promised to make half of the rental units affordable for low- and moderate-income families. To gain neighbors' support for its new cancer care center, Yale-New Haven Hospital agreed to create an outreach program for children with asthma. And to smooth the way for its Gateway Center retail project, which will replace the Bronx Terminal Market, the Related Companies pledged to bar Wal-Mart as a tenant. In New York and around the country, it has become standard practice for developers of major projects to negotiate with neighborhood and other groups to forge so-called community benefits agreements contracts that almost always contain wage and hiring goals and may also include a grab bag of concessions, like a day care center, a new park, free tickets to sports events and cash outlays to be administered by the groups themselves. In New York, in contrast with many other jurisdictions, the city itself is not a party to these agreements. Theoretically, at least, the pacts are not supposed to play a role in the city's zoning review process. Since 2001, when a comprehensive community benefits agreement was struck for a hotel-and-entertainment project now being developed in Los Angeles next to the Staples Center sports arena, the trend has quickly spread to other cities, including Denver, Milwaukee, Chicago and Washington. Advocates of C.B.A.'s, as they are known, see them as an outgrowth of the Smart Growth movement the idea that development decisions should address a broad range of social and economic issues like transportation, jobs and housing. In New York, however, some critics are wondering if this trend is threatening to distort the planning process. They say the danger is that local groups will agree not to oppose the projects in exchange for favors that may be unrelated to the project's impact on the neighborhood. Critics of the Atlantic Yards (whose developer is a partner to The New York Times Company in its new headquarters building on Eighth Avenue) and other agreements have questioned whether the groups signing the document really speak for the community. "Groups pop up and you're not sure who they represent," said Patricia A. Jones, the co-chairwoman of the Manhattan Community Board 9 task force on Columbia University's expansion in Manhattanville. Ms. Jones contends that development plans ought to be reviewed by community boards, which are currently excluded from the C.B.A. process, before the benefits are meted out. "They can look at the bigger picture," she said. Ross F. Moskowitz, a real estate partner at the law firm Stroock & Stroock & Lavan, said developers would like the procedures to be clearer and more predictable. "The danger of a C.B.A. is that it is outside the process," he said. "There are no guidelines, no controls. The transparency is not there. You just don't know what you're walking into." In California, leaders of the community benefits movement say New York's agreements lack the protections that are standard elsewhere. "In the C.B.A.'s we work on," said Julian Gross, the legal director of the California Partnership for Working Families, an advocacy group that has negotiated a number of agreements, "the city is closely involved in the negotiations. There's no point in the community group and the developer negotiating a lot of stuff that the city doesn't want." Outside New York, benefit agreements are usually incorporated into the developer's agreement with the city, adding another layer of enforcement. The local redevelopment agency was "intimately involved" in the C.B.A. that J. H. Snyder, a Los Angeles developer, negotiated for NoHo Commons, a 1.5-million-square-foot mixed-use project centered on a subway stop in North Hollywood, said Clifford Goldstein, a senior partner. "It's a very open process," said Mr. Goldstein, who is currently working on another C.B.A. for a project in South Los Angeles. Carl Weisbrod, the president of Trinity Real Estate in New York, said that the government should be involved in any agreement that pertained to a subsidized project to ensure that "the services and the organizations that are being given money to provide the services are fully in keeping with government priorities." There are signs that Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg's administration is rethinking its position on community benefits agreements. A year ago, it was the mayor himself who trumpeted the Atlantic Yards agreement between Forest City Ratner and eight community groups. But in April, the mayor reacted angrily to the suggestion that the Mets would negotiate a C.B.A. for its new ballpark. "Every development project in this city is not going to be a horn of pl

"I don't think anyone suggests that we shirk our social responsibility. What it is however is an overload on the city. More importantly, many of these services start shipping clients into the facilities. It is one thing to take care of your own town's problem, and even pick up some of the outside area's problems, but it is another to become a dumping ground." Doesn't this issue owe its existence to the colossal failure of our courts, policing and system of incarceration? In almost every instance the courts exist to tax those caught breaking any one of an ever growing list of societal taboos; everything from child predation to the nickel and diming of parking meters, speed traps, drinking and driving, which now includes operating a bicycle and ever more ludicrous acts which share one thing in common. How much money can judge and prosecutor extract from the fool before them? Clearly this has proven profitable for government treasuries but at an ever growing cost of greater disrespect for the courts.

[AsburyPark] Re: Memorial day from AP partners...
"But what do you do when they see the condition of the waterfront buildings? Sure, sounds like sour grapes, but all this stuff is cheap compared to the PROMISED restoration of the buildings which should have been well on its way by now. THAT would do more good for this city than fireworks and face painting." Paramount is asking themselves the very same question; I have it from an excellent source that Paramount has joined Metro in disbelief at their gullibility believing Larry's promises to restore and improve the waterfront. The Fish's deceit, greed and incompetence leave his sub developers with the nightmare of convincing buyers that all is well and one day (somewhere in the next 25 years) "a new day" will indeed arrive at the waterfront; meanwhile the market cools and few if any of the presales are binding on buyers. You want fireworks; that day may soon be at hand. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Home is just a click away.

After all, C8 represents the fastest of the once proclaimed "fast track" projects, and after 4 years of Larry's do nothing agenda, its removal merely signifies "a new day" wherein something twice as tall will supposedly thrill us in the midst of the despair and disrepair of a very fishy waterfront; drink up, you may well need it.

We don't even know who estimated these costs and if the city has or will get independent verification of the costs. I don't see anything that requires full restoration." As we all know, Larry doesn't do restoration, hell he doesn't build, develop, market or sell, he eminent domains, paints, burns or demolishes.

Earth to Tom; I suspect you've been reading the 3villageTimes too long. Who do you think the "business world" expects to meet when it visits Asbury Park−Rumson? Despite your buddy Dan's assertions that Asbury is to become a world-class center of design, new-age bohemian lifestyle and groovy stuff, it remains what it has been for too long, a model of failed and incompetent local government, whose best suit is the quick buck deal, usually at the expense of its residents. Unfortunately, the course of action the city has taken to redevelop the beachfront, remains true to that heritage; further, I guess the fool they've entrusted development to, meets your personal measure of competency. He drives a Porsche, wears groovy suits, bullshits his way through business deals and stiffs naïve lawyers for business lunches. Sadly this is the Asbury the business world still expects to encounter and GM can't build enough Cadillacs to make it any different. "If you went on a job interview you wouldn't wear your best suit? I hate to disappoint you but in the business world you often have to be who the buyer is expecting, or he'll buy elsewhere. By your thinking Asbury Park should not redevelop the beachfront. It won't be reflective of the rest of the town, or the struggles faced by the West Side. So to "keep it real" and "be honest about who Asbury Park is," in front of the business world we are trying to attract, we should have our leaders tear holes in their cloths, speak with poor diction and perhaps pay for the business lunch with food stamps.

The test comes down to whom do you think you're kidding?

[AsburyPark] Paterson's Great Falls Historic District - from Maureen
"This was our dream, and we were especially optimistic about the opportunity for transformation of the Great Falls Historic District, to make vision a reality and spark positive long-term revival for the future. It was Dornoch's [Asbury Partners] intention to make a significant impact on Paterson and to help turn this city around. Unfortunately, the people of Paterson will have to settle for less." Another misunderstood, great developer is trashed by yet another ungrateful community, hung-up on such bullshit details as developer competence, business ethics and mere desire to make an honest buck; shame on Paterson. Developer's vision in limbo Sunday, March 26, 2006 By GLEN FISHMAN SPECIAL TO THE HERALD NEWS The proposed redevelopment of the Great Falls Historic District of Paterson, a win-win proposition that was designed to become the much-needed catalyst for this city's rebirth, has reached a standstill. The Herald News, along with other voices in the community, have disseminated a myriad of misrepresentations that have discouraged Dornoch Holdings and our talented redevelopment team from pursuing the project. It is a disappointment that our dream for the Great Falls will go unrealized. Our expertise and passion is restoring underutilized properties, to bring them back to their market value and to make improvements that have a positive impact on the community as a whole. In the case of the Great Falls Historic District, our dream was a virtual mirror image of the redevelopment plan unanimously approved by the Paterson mayor and City Council in October 2003. It included new housing and retail, new recreation, improved pedestrian and vehicular movement and new access to the Great Falls and river. Our plan called for the building of 973 residential units, 60,000 square feet of retail space and an 83,000-square-foot hotel and convention center. We shared our vision with Mayor Jose "Joey" Torres and the council, and our proposal reflected their vision. The key was restoration of the neighborhoods surrounding the falls in a way that would enhance access to the greatest natural attraction in North Jersey. We envisioned the Great Falls Historic District as a site that people would flock to year-round. We also envisioned the positive impact the redevelopment would have on Paterson's economy the jobs and income it would create during and after the redevelopment. The totals were significant: an estimated 1,980 person-years of construction-related employment over the seven-year period it would take to complete the project and another 220 permanent retail jobs upon completion. Our experts projected the redevelopment would contribute an additional $6.6 million in net tax revenue to the city and school assets each year, based on an increase of $274 million in market value once the project was completed. All of this was planned without the taking of any properties through eminent domain and with us paying market value for all city-owned property. The plan was conceived to improve the quality of life for the people of Paterson, something that already is being realized in our development activities on land we own. On Ellison Street, our work is producing a new public access Cablevision studio on a site that sat vacant with rusting steel for the past decade. Now, in addition to the studio, the property will include a computer resource center and retail outlets as well. Quite simply, the Great Falls Historic Redevelopment was something that would breathe new life into Paterson culturally, financially, physically and socially. Everything was on track until November, when some people began questioning our intentions. The mayor and council postponed action on the City Redevelopment Agreement with the Dornoch Paterson redevelopment team. And on Dec. 27, this newspaper published a story that identified the disgruntled builder as the same individual who, over the past few years, had filed a number of lawsuits in Asbury Park, challenging the Asbury Park Waterfront Redevelopment Plan without success. The claims denied the progress that has been achieved in the waterfront redevelopment in Asbury Park and diminished the success of the public/private partnership between Asbury Partners LLC and the city of Asbury Park. And it seriously misrepresented the process and proposal that resulted in Dornoch Paterson. It is time to set the record straight. First: my brother, Larry Fishman, who has a minority interest in Dornoch Holdings, manages Asbury Partners. I have a minority interest in Asbury Partners. The connection between Asbury Partners and Dornoch ends there. We are neither affiliates nor sister companies. Second: The renaissance of the waterfront redevelopment in Asbury Park has progressed at a record pace. The developers rebuilt the city's famed boardwalk and launched the first phase of $60 million in infrastructure improvements that have resulted in new roads, sidewalks and utili

I question the city and developer's actions regarding what I had thought a standard clause in real estate agreements. Real estate agreements generally contain an actual or implied warranty that time is of the essence. It is one thing for the city to gift The Fishman Asbury's lands over 30 years; however, this action brings with it an onus to act. That he chooses to under bid, speculate or land bank the property of others bears a time cost to him. On those lands where he failed to act, forthwith as of signing the redevelopment agreement of October 2002, he can not expect to buy at the then appraised value, but must pay the price real estate has inflated since; anything less is unfair to those he holds in this odd purgatory of Weldon and Aaron's making.

Still don't see how you both expanded the scope of my complaint beyond planning? Hmmm... bet everyone else does.' Expansion spansion; so what? You get yourself into trouble by your too often use of "you always" and in this case "everyone"; the world actually isn't that way, the people in it certainly are not that consistent, even I've had to admit that some among us aren't always blind. Werner is, I suspect, gruff and irascible when it comes to matters concerning Asbury's historic buildings and its abominable planning, this has simply grown worse with the botched negotiation of the waterfront deal and council's ineffective attempts to make right what even they now see as a disaster. Rather than working yourself up over Werner why not lighten up on your self importance, you may find life a bit easier to take. Ps I'll take that bet any day; never, no place, no where will everyone agree on anything. Yahoo!

`"If so you display your ignorance in the subject, as you have in the past regarding other planning issues." So confident I am that he calls anyone who disagrees with him on planning ignorant or uneducated that ' Tom, (hope you appreciate my using your alias) your argument with Werner, over his choice of language, highlights your ignorance of the meaning of the word "ignorance" and draws attention to your often expressed anxiety over others diminishing your self importance. Lighten up, what Werner said is that on the subject of "planning issues" you display ignorance; he might just as well have said that you "lack of knowledge or education". Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: 2nd Ave Property - rack'em pack'em and stack'em
" Northern and Western Monmouth overlords have the $ and the power, and they will be soaking up all the open space funding. Our only shot at largess is to assist them by accepting our Urban asthetic and continue to further Urbanize, which they are trying to avoid. We're Urban anyway, so grow with it. Forget open spaces in AP. It isn't who we are. Rack'em pack'em and stack'em. It's time to go vertical and build high." You can't lay our problems on the disastrous planning and political power of suburbia; it wasn't they that gave away 56 acres of Asbury's best, that catastrophe is home grown. The continuing urbanization of Asbury isn't a second best option, it is the path to an enhanced quality of life and greater economic power, but neither demands the elimination of all open space; that and specifically the demise of the triangles was Weldon's and Aaron's doing. Were urbanization nothing more than "rack'em pack'em and stack'em" Manhattan wouldn't have Central Park nor any other open spaces. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: 2nd Ave Property - Eminent Domain
"how about building NOTHING and letting the ocean blow through... of course this would nothing for the city coffers nor the partners." Certainly an option; however, council has chosen to sell and the deal they've struck appears to be the worst of all worlds. Fish pays nothing, he flips to some half-assed developer, who builds god knows what, the wind no longer blows through, and Larry's coffers score another $10million. I would sooner see the city have use of that sort of money. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: 2nd Ave Property - Eminent Domain
How many units can be built in the proposal on the tri?" >From Dan re C8 "$33 million build 224 units" equals $147K/unit; I have no idea the amount of land, but think it secondary to zoning, which apparently allows 134 units, hence my value of $75K/unit. That said, show me a site anywhere in Monmouth County 2 blocks from the ocean the equal of the triangle, fronting on the Atlantic and Deal Lake; there isn't one. As for how many units to build; that depends on who sells, if it's The Fish flipping a buy at $175 or $490K, you likely have trouble squeezing in units and required parking . If it's the city realizing $10million, you negotiate a larger building envelope. Yahoo!

"the triangle is worth no where near $10m. 4.5 acres were just sold in Long Branch (2 blocks in) with 8o units for $10m. It does have a value, to the right developer. It all depends what they can build, and what the potential return would be." Really? Long Branch 2 blocks from the ocean $125K/unit; Asbury fronting on the ocean and Deal Lake $75K/unit; who's foolin' who? Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: 2nd Ave Property - Eminent Domain
Council's problem re The Fishman, remains that of spurned lover; having been courted seduced and bedded by Larry, council simply is unwilling to surrender all hope that things still might turn out well. What the city needs is a brand new suitor, one capable of rekindling those glorious moments of what might have been; fortunately I have a wooer, eager to take council to even greater heights of excitement and ecstasy. All council need to do, to explore this opportunity, is signal its readiness to re-enter and play the game. Arranging this coupling requires but a few simple basic steps; council must declare its readiness to dance, once again, by putting The `scoundrel' Fishman in default, cease rubber stamping Larry's list of candidates for eminent domain and announce itself open to bids on the triangle, sewer plant and various other parcels not yet seized by The Fish; these steps would immediately realize offers of $10 million for the triangle, roughly the same (per unit price) for the sewer plant and additional sites in the waterfront redevelopment area. Downside, Larry would be really pissed off and pout; upside, Larry would be really pissed off and pout, Asbury would collect a slug of dough and the NY Times could write an article about, and visitors would see, actual development.

[AsburyPark] Re: 2nd Ave Property - bull shit
"Seems some have a problem with the messenger and not the message. The NYT was claimed to be negative by some on this board and these same herald the USA Today article. [+] I heard that Partners is required to renovate the 1st floor of the 5th Ave pavilion within 12 months and then has to show progress every succeeding 12 months. With hope requirements for renovating the Casino, CH et al within a reasonable period. [+] The "Moliver principle" is one of the dirty secrets of the eminent domain process for the waterfront in Asbury Park. By saying that all increases in homes' values is a result of the waterfront redevelopment and can therefore be discarded as bull shit." What we have here is "my country (city) right or wrong"; there exists a primordial shortcut in the nervous systems of a few, which shuts down cognition and fires up defensive mechanisms to protect territory; canines achieve this by pissing on trees, primitive man pisses on one another. Observers, reporters and speakers of truth understand that Rome was not, and Asbury can not be, built in a day; that there are many pitfalls on the road to creation or rehabilitation and that glossing over bullshit is nothing more than a more visible variant of marking behavior. Unfortunately these markers not merely identify, they stink and stain. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: Jerry... happy -- Cost is the issue
"Didn't Keady say he was also concerned about the cost and that any such projects in the future should be looked at more carefully. That is the ISSUE, the cost of this thing, $800K !!! Not whether it is good for the children or not. Press reporting goes for the fluff again." Truth and consequences; Asbury residents, the financial stepchild of the jersey shore, are overtaxed and underserved; it is painfully clear that the west side has had, and continues to get, the short end of the stick of expenditures, services and improvements. Financially distressed, it must constantly juggle the books to find funds for basic services, so that when discretionary spending is called for, choice often appears capricious. Clearly council feels obliged to provide services to ameliorate the east/west disparity; when it does so, it seems obvious to increase the impact of spending by availing itself of whatever grants that may be available. Unfortunately, the grant process distorts the spirit and costs of these services. This distortion is compounded by a council that means well, but has few tools to value the cost/benefit of alternatives and whose staff and consultants are far from the best. The result too frequently, the continuing bumbling that Asbury Park has become so well known for. Cost certainly is the issue, unfortunately, past sins of omission and commission cloud current decisions and the fear of repeating history prejudges performance. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] setting an example for his constituency - which one?
" carrying on your own meeting with "that white woman" you adore. ...when are you going to stand up for your constituency and reveal what you know about mog?" Joe, overall I think you are a valuable piece of what makes Asbury Asbury; that said, no one is without fault. Some are simply more faulty or faultier; and that said, most of your attack on Jerry is meritorious (his entire black/white woman bit is abominable), but then, as with so many wielders of truth, in their own eyes, conviction and enthusiasm, you go too far, you mount a stallion to do battle, only to tilt at a wind of your own making and an ill wind it is. I gather from many of your positions, expressed in posts herein that your primary affiliation is to the gay community; that experience certainly should have by now enlightened you to the burdens and travails of others, which causes me to wonder how one supposedly knowledgeable, would choose language positioning him to state so inane a quote as "that white woman"? Were that not enough, you compound the faux pax with "when are you going to stand up for your constituency"; are we not all of the same tribe, do we not all have the same feelings and hurts, do we not all bleed when injured, cry when hurt laugh when humored, are we not each and every one brothers and sisters to each? You would have Jerry "stand up for your constituency", which one? My dear friend, what ever are you trying to say; the message is muddledthe slur understood. Yahoo!

"He prmosied to paint his mother's house when he was 19. The $30 she gave himshe's is still waiting - 30 years later." My sources elaborate a more Machiavellian rendition of these facts. Seems not only has Larry not performed the agreed upon painting, for which he was paid, but he initiated a complaint to the buildings department, specifying the rundown condition of her home. Apparently he thought he could get the property declared "blighted"; while that strategy failed, it did result in a buildings standards work order, a summons for failure to comply, hefty fines for no-show and a lien on her property. Barring the appearance of a white knight, Larry may scoop up mom's house in the next year; stay tuned for updates. Yahoo!
