Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Taped Council Meetings
You think! For years I've been asking both the council and the BOE, not to mention Tom Gilmore, Chico and anyone else in positions of power to do just this, put the meetings, events, etc., on the web / TV. You can't make this stuff up, the things that go on at meetings and the entertainment is fabulous. But there was no support from the community to have an APTV on public access. And my show was already full so I couldn't continue to do this venture alone. I just couldn't afford to do all the work alone and nobody even watched or uploaded or let me know how I was doing. Maureen and Pete have helped a great deal to promote my show,especially around elections, but I needed more help from the community and nobody wanted to help run 2 shows... Glad the BOE has a new website now, maybe they'll let the students in on the action! Learn a skill, see a dream unfold, get a job, invest in their future as journalist, radio announcers, or even broadcast journalism, instead of dieing of boredom.

[AsburyPark] Re: Taped Council Meetings
First AsburyCouple, thank you so much for visiting the site. I just got back there after about a one month hiatus. Yes I do agree with you 100% about taping the council meetings. I can't believe in today's advanced technological age that all meetings aren't posted to the net. In Howell Township, the council meeting is shown (I think all day everyday) on cable channell 77. It is very convenient to just turn it on and catch up on what is happening. It also allows folks to see for themselves how the council people act up there and what they say. Everyone should write to their state reps and ask them to support Senator Ciesla's bill. The Asbury Park State reps are Senator Palaia and Assemblymen Kean and Corodemus (but that's about to change this year). --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, asburycouple [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tom, I saw on your sight you are a supporter of the efforts to tape board of ed meetings, hopefully to post them online.

You are quite right. The BOE records the public portions of the meeting digitally on CD, which is a matter of public record. I did respond individually re the vote, but not to the whole group. So I'll correct that now. Since there were only seven people on the board rather than a full board of nine, it only took four votes to name someone to the board. Garrett nominated Mr. Hopson, Mrs. Sanders seconded it, and the other two votes that seated Mr. Hopson were Mr. Brewington and the Rev. Smallwood, both (in my opinion) people of good will and heart. The last person to get to vote because he is the Board President(thank God)is Robert DiSanto. When the vote got to him it was, as they say, a fait accompli, so he could either register a protest vote or affirm the vote. He has to try to work with the entire board, including Mr. Hopson; Robert's thankless job is akin to herding cats. Although I certainly cannot speak for him, I can say that Robert voted yes, which at that point was the diplomatic thing to do and in keeping with the team spirit admonitions in board policy. The point that is missing here I obviously did not make very clear in my initial or subsequent postings. So I'll try to make it less opaque now. After all four candidates were interviewed in public (that's an interesting CD right there), the board went into closed session, as is permitted, and did the necessary straw polling to present what would hopefully be a unified board in public, prevent any hard feelings on the part of the candidates not chosen, and have an expeditious process. Those executive sessions are not recorded, although minutes are kept as the Open Public Meetings Act provides. Suffice it to say that what then transpired in public session immediately thereafter was not consistent with what had transpired in closed session. More than that I cannot say. Thank God, however, there were over a dozen witnesses present in that executive session. I would think the word treachery is not an unfair characterization of what took place that night, and it had nothing whatever to do with race, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. I have never said that what took place was illegal; it most certainly was not. It is a matter of honor and integrity. It certainly cleared up for me once and for all who I would and wouldn't want to share a foxhole with. Frank D'Alessandro Sorry for being so long-winded. It's that old retired teacher thing. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: Taped Council Meetings
There are several ways to read Frank's post below. One way is to say that Garrett didn't abide by some deal that was made against Hopson in the executive session. Even still, I don't understand how you paint Garrett poorly and speak glowingly of the other yes voters of Sanders, Brewington and Smallwood. They all voted the same way on the same guy. I don't get your nuanced distinction. The defense of Robert's vote is a double edged sword. One could argue he does not vote his conscious from what you say. I'm not saying that is true, but your post makes the case. Perhaps the 5 who voted for this guy just don't share your view of him? I still want to see the racist/homophobe proof. Serious charges need serious proof. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, asburycheech [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: - -*bd of education meetings were taped in the past, has this practice stopped? this started because of franks post about an appointment of hopson, i also do not know him, but know frank is sincere , yet he as been asked several times who voted for this man, he has posted others yet does not answer this important question, why? it is public information and will eventually come out, if frank is correct he is wrong to put the blame on the vice president, it takes a nomination a motion to second it and then a vote of the entire bd.

[AsburyPark] Re: Taped Council Meetings
the only thing i would add is thank you frank for answering the questions, and when will the closed exec. minutes become public, i dont believe it should be too long, doesnt seem to be any litigation going on Concerning minutes of meetings: They are normally presented to the board at the next regular meeting. The public sessions are recorded, but minutes are kept anyway. Only minutes are kept, and not recordings, of executive sessions. Upon presentation to the board at a board meeting, the board can vote to accept them, amend them, or reject them. Assuming they are accepted by majority vote, they become official, and the public can ask for copies of the minutes of public sessions. The closed session minutes are not released, but there is always a disclaimer that they can be released when the need for confidentiality no longer exists. To be honest, I've never understood exactly what that means, and I don't recall the minutes of any closed sessions ever being made public. I suppose a member of the public can make an OPRA (Open Public Records Act)request and see how the legal department handles that. I think they may advise that certain minutes should be released by the board, but I have never see that happen either here or elsewhere, so your guess is as good as mine. In any event, the minutes are not even official until they are approved at a board meeting. I can't wait myself to see the proposed minutes of that meeting! Frank Yahoo!

That's funny, because when I visit New Orleans, prior to Katrina, there are 2 public, cable channels, devoted to show, not only school board meetings, but also, City Council meetings, Chamber of Commerce meetings, etc. The population of New Orleans, prior to Katrina, was over 500,000 residents. This small city, has under 20,000, residents. What gives? Are BOE meetings, no longer taped and if so, who sees them?

Everyone should write to their state reps and ask them to support Senator Ciesla's bill. The Asbury Park State reps are Senator Palaia and Assemblymen Kean and Corodemus (but that's about to change this year). --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, asburycouple asburycouple@ wrote: Tom, I saw on your sight you are a supporter of the efforts to tape board of ed meetings, hopefully to post them online. I agree, and wonder what the argument would be against doing this for Council meetings as well. Why isn't this being done already. I'd have to wonder about any members of the city council who were afraid to have the meetings available for all to see. Is there any good (or even reasonable) reason for not doing this? If not, why can't this be started asap. I travel and can't make the meetings, but would absolutely watch. Yahoo!

I have this information: To find out about all the events, programs, and happenings in Asbury Park Schools, visit the District's New Website: http://www.asburypark.k12.nj.us The new website, updated daily, is made available for parents, students and staff, to keep in-touch with the goings on in their school district. Visit today. (clipped from the Coaster, some time, ago.) Don't know if it's up and running, as stated.
