Frank, When I read this in the paper, I was very confused. 1. When did the City Council begin speaking for the BOE? 2. Since you ALL are ELECTED, separately, (2 elections), by the Citizens of AP, are SEPARATE entities, budgets, etc., where the Council, is more geared toward municipal government, garbage pickup, street sweeping, law enforcement, salaries for municipal workers, etc. When citizens complain to the Council, are they legally able to intercede? They administer 1 aspect of governance, where your group attends to the educational needs of this community. I never thought that the Council would be so dead set against this BOE! What was I thinking? Sorry, if I'm behind a little. Been offline for a few days attending to other business. Tell me, who OWNS, this building, the city or the school board. Why was the original board building sold, to the developer and who got the proceeds? How are they able to sell a public parcel? Again, who got the proceeds? Why was the present building, sold out from under you guys, again, literally tossing the board into the street, like a deadbeat tenant, which you and the board certainly aren't; I just don't get it. You don't win friends of forge partnerships, by doing so. There I go thinking, again!

The only reason I attended this one was because I had visited Werner in the county jail that afternoon and hoped to speak to people who would be at the council meeting. I also considered speaking about the treatment of Werner at the public comment portion of the meeting. That became moot when I left the meeting abruptly.) Monday, September 10, 2007 I was at the Asbury Park City Council meeting of Wednesday, September 5, 2007. I arrived shortly after 7 PM. The 6 PM Workshop meeting was still going on when I arrived. Toward the end of that Workshop meeting (about 8 PM), Councilman Loffredo announced to the people in the meeting, including many senior citizens present who were prepared to submit a petition to the council concerning the lack of progress in the 5-year search for a permanent Senior Center, that he had good news. Mr. Loffredo said that the city was acquiring the Braverman Building as the new Senior Center. Since I had been involved along with the Board of Ed President Robert DiSanto and the Superintendent of Schools at the time, Dr. Lewis, I was shocked to hear Mr. Loffredo say that since I knew that was the same building which the now-defunct SCC had bought for the Board of Ed to be torn down and replaced with a state of the art Early Childhood Learning Center. We had been working on the plans for many years, and the only thing that prevented further progress was the fact that the SCC had run out of money. When Mr. Loffredo made his announcement, there was a cheer from the senior citizens present. At that time, I went over to one of the Senior leaders, Mrs. Marianne Kisloski, and explained that this was the property that was supposed to house the ECLC. I expressed my displeasure that the Council seemed to be pitting one group against the other by making this announcement, when no more than a week previous, it had been announced that the building for which the Council was negotiating was in the Redevelopment Zone (about a half mile away from the Braverman Building), and according to the deputy Mayor, the negotiations had to be secret and the Developers would have to be in on the negotiations as well as the unnamed building's owners since they would probably want something in return for the taking a building out of that zone.

They administer 1 aspect of governance, where your group attends to the educational needs of this community. I never thought that the Council would be so dead set against this BOE! What was I thinking? Hi Sharon and Group, The only thing I can say is that the Council may have been conflating two completely different issues. (I'm trying to give them the benefit of a doubt.) They are confusing our vital and long overdue need for an Early Childhood Learning Center with the controversy over where the Administration Building will be now that we are being evicted due to the council's condemnation of the present administration building. Those are two separate, mutually exclusive things. The ECLC is to be built on the Braverman Building site which the SCC bought in 2005 for the BOE to be used for that purpose only. Although the SCC ran out of money, the project was never abandoned. As a matter of fact, our very excellent Early Childhood Supervisor, Nancy Sterling, has been working continuously with the State Dept. of Education to make certain that when the SCC (now called the State Development Authority) gets the necessary funding again, the most up-to-date facility will be built there for our little ones. There are some folks out there who claim that the present situation of little preschools all over the city is good enough. Meanwhile the young people of Neptune and Long Branch have absolute state of the art facilities. Our kids are at a huge competitive disadvantage. That is not to say that the present preschools and the staffs are not good. It's just that we need to end the preschool diaspora now and require a state of the art, 21st century education for these kids. When that happens, it will filter up to all the upper grades as well and inure to the benefit of the entire city. Why the children of Asbury Park are not entitled to the same advantages as the kids from Neptune, Long Branch, or anywhere else has to be explained to me. The parents of Asbury Park have been too patient; they and we should demand that ECLC now. So I ask people not to confuse the controversy over the so-called Brookdale building with the vital plans we have for the Braverman building property. Regardless of what some council members or the city manager may have either said or implied, the BOE never, never gave any indication to the state that we were no longer interested in the Braverman site. That would be yet another tragedy for this city. I sincerely hope that this episode does not cause any further delay in getting that Early Childhood Learning Center built. It is extremely vital to the survival of this city as a viable entity. In my opinion, and I do not speak for the Board in any of this, the city council needs to stop stringing the senior citizens along like they have been doing for five years now. As late as last month, they claimed they were negotiating for a building in the redevelopment zone. It is an open secret as to what building they were talking about. Someone needs to ask them to 'fess up to the fact that no real negotiations were transpiring at all. Their hopping aboard the Braverman Building thing can only serve to continue their pie in the sky by and by dance with the seniors at the same time that they pull the rug out from under the BOE. Again in my opinion, they owe the seniors a huge apology for cynically lifting their hopes once again only to have them cruelly dashed. How many times and for how many years can they get the Seniors to believe them? Frank (I once was lost but now I'm found) D'Alessandro Yahoo!

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: City, Board of Ed, the State and...
It is amazing. For the last 3 years I have been trying to build a bridge between the BOE and the City Council and The Manager. It is unfortunate that some board members do not want this bridge to be built. Using one rateable for two entities is a fantastic plan.?Considering the way our?taxes are, we do not need to be taking?parcels off the tax roles when we can utilize one parcel of land for a multi community complex. The tax payers are suffering enough. How much more can we afford? We need to start consolidating.

Sounds like the borad of ed does not need this building and a senior facility is needed. Board of Ed is currently running without 1 school. So use that. Sell the Braverman building to the city. Next take that money to renovate and clean the Bang school building. You can use that for the preschool and the borad of ed offices. This not only fixes the problems but would also reduce costs becuase you would not need to lease office space.

It is not owned my the Board of ED. Werner when did the state buy it? was it removed from the citys tax rolls? whos colleecting the rent for the methadone and other clinics? Yahoo!

Amazing isn't it. I believe the problem come from the lack of accountability. Most the the funding for Asbury education come from the state. If the reddents were flipping the bill, they would be all over this. What is sad it is the students who suffer as well as the town. - Original Message From: oakdorf [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2007 3:34:13 PM Subject: [AsburyPark] Re: City, Board of Ed, the State and...

[AsburyPark] Re: City, Board of Ed, the State and...
If the reddents were flipping the bill, they would be all over this. What is sad it is the students who suffer as well as the town. I've been preaching this for years... on this board. The town picks up less then 15% or less of the total cost to run the schools. Other towns it's 85% or more. Even Long Branch is getting uppped to over 20%at least I think these numbers are close. Long Branch has built themselves some educational palaces. I;m sure Frank could be more accurate on these numbers because I haven't looked in awhile. That's why the state funding mechanisms for school repaurs and building went bankrupt, to use a real world word. Mismanagement, spending like they won the lottery, designs like they build corporate Headquarters (another who cares approach, because it's fake money..) When you go home and walk in your kitchen or bathroom, most of us might say I'd love to redo it but just don't have the money. Yet, you buy a lottery ticket and think IF I win, then I will remodel. The school spending is or has been like winning he lottery. Granted, some ways of the past had to be corrected, but the spending was like pouring a tanker truck of fuel on a pile of money and tossing a match. Now you have: 1. Empty scholol building. And, as allen pointed out, life will go on with the relocation of students. 2. YOu have another building (Braverman) that state overpaid for that might not be used for anything - or might be knocked down or rehabbed at probably 3 times the cost of the purchase price and cost to build new. 3. A board of ed that has to lease, in my opinion, costly space. But that;s ok, because the state rubber stamped it. Meanwhile, you have a stretch of springwood that sits empty and would actually make a nice spot for a school, park and playground. A strip fo stores and apartments isn';t really needed there. You;d ahve to find tenants for the stores. YOu have a whole strip across the street looking for tenants. There was.is an existing school building in eatontown, 7 acres, 26 classrooms, offices, main gym, smaller gym, lockers, 8,000 q ft of storage. It could be purchased for $5,3million and you can walk in and teach. THIS is what the real world is. The braverman building offers no land unless oyou knock it down. Jsut BURN the money. Maybe you should put out to vote to let MM just takeover the enitre city, let them do what they want. Let them control the budgets and all. Main Street, Asbury Ave, Springwood, Sunset, Deal Lake, Wesley Lake... Hey, it worked in Florida for Disney World. Aobut time the council and BOE AND the state work together, not trying to outdo each other. A real joke at the expense of the STATE tax payer. End the Abbott failure today. Not that folks aren't trying, but it ain't working. To those BOE members that are piuching their way through best of luck. Yahoo!
