Michael J. Donohue, Solicitor Joan KramarJim Craft, CFO ABSENT Karen LaneJill Gougher, Administrator Albert Carusi Mayor Walters announced that the meeting was now open. Adequate notice of the meeting was provided by posting a copy of the time and place on the Municipal Clerk’s bulletin board and mailing a copy of same to the Press and the Cape May County Herald on January 8, 2015. SALUTE TO THE FLAG Councilmember AL CARUSI explained the final recommendation presented tonight to full Council and the public on the police building. He briefly explained how we got here. After recognizing the need to refurbish or build new the PS committee began the vetting process through due diligence at the beginning of the year. We had money available to fund studies and analysis, costs, technical, social impact, planning, aesthetics etc. We had 2 million approved in the 2015, for construction. A presentation was made to the public at the beginning of the year with a three prong approach, refurbishing existing building, new construction in the parking lot near the new library and new construction in the Borough parking lot next to the Firehouse. We even looked at the possibility of shared service with Avalon, we covered the full spectrum. We came to a final unanimous decision through consensus about two weeks ago. We all had ideas, we all gained, we all gave and we came out with something we unanimously approved of, which will be presented tonight. He thanked members of PS Committee, Chief Paul Reynolds, Police Captain Schutta, Fire Chief Roger Stanford, Court Administrator Debbie Scott, OEM Coordinator Ken hawk Borough Administrator Jill Gougher, Adm Ass’t Kim Stevenson, CFO Jim Craft, Borough Engineer Marc DeBlasio and Architects Dan Shousky and Jerry Blackman. Special recognition to police department, a police sub-committee was formed consisting of Sgt. Palmer, Schuck and Walker to work the details of what is required in a modern police facility. Recognized other Sgts. and each officer for their cooperation and patience in working with the Borough. PRESENTATION – NEW POLICE BUILDING DAN SHOUSKY Dan Shousky of OSK Design Partners, PA explained the power point presentation that will be shown to the public explaining the new police building being built adjacent to the existing building. The entrance will still be on 95th Street and the new building will be attached to the old. We looked at not disrupting parking, looked at the disruption of Seng Place, looked at using the existing police building as a new facility, one of the concerns was what do we do with Police while we renovate. We looked a keeping the police in that building and the decision was made to knock down the existing saliport which has a lot of inherent problems, and we took the building size we had before and realizing we needed to reduce the size we worked through all spaces required, the minimum number and type of space required for police stations. We condensed the building from 15,000 sq ft to 8,000 sq ft. We were able to do that by taking the storage that is required for Police and putting that in the first floor of the existing police building. The buildings will be connected. The complete plans and power point presentation is on file in Borough Hall. PUBLIC Charles Tomlinson 269 – 106th Street – good presentation, couple of questions. He suggested the Borough could use the second floor archway for storage and contain everything in one building rather than use a part of another building therefore the existing building could be used totally for some other use. Asked if we looked at the cost difference in doing that. Dan - it would add more to the building cost, asked do we know how much more. Dan - we are looking at the square footage range Asked if we would look at it. Also, Carusi mentioned studied all kind of alternatives asked him to go over them and as to what the results were. Carusi, looked at shared service Avalon, support is just not there in both communities. Size of building looked at, school looked at, remote, flood zone conditions, across street looked good, public safety complex but did not want to give up use of Seng Place and additional costs incurred in accommodating space lost by the Fire Department for Police. We came down to this, very cost effective. Tom Puta 151- 95th Street speaking for Garden House Condominium adjacent to the police building new building and new design looks very nice always good to have the police building next to the condo, provides safety and security. One concern, lighting at night in the new building worried about intrusive lighting from the top of the building, please give consideration at this at this early stage of planning.
Upon motion of Councilmember Barry D. MastrangeloSeconded by Councilmember Judy Davies-Dunhour Since all members of Council have been provided with a copy of the minutes of the Regular Meeting of July 21, 2015 and the Work Session of August 4, 2015, if there are no additions or corrections, I move we dispense with the reading of the minutes and that they be approved. Vote 6 Councilmembers AYE REPORTS OF COMMITTEES AND OFFICERS PUBLIC SAFETY Councilmember Carusi said Public Safety meeting was held on August 6th at 9 am all members present. A special meeting was requested by Fire Department members prior to regular meeting. Issue at hand is the Fire Dept out of service fire boat which is also used for search & rescue operations. No money has been budgeted for 2015 and the boat needs a new pump shaft & the engine requires continuous repairs. Replacement cost of over $90,000. Committee believes this would be committing good money after bad to this nearly 20 yr. old boat on loan to use from Fire Service. A new boat would be in the range of $125,000 to $148,000 fully loaded. Committee advised Fire Dept. to begin search for a new boat to be submitted into the 2016 Capital budget & to reduce the outlay of funds, the re-chasseing of an ambulance for $80,000 would be taken out of the 2016 and pushed back to 2017 with no other capital request anticipated from the Fire Dept. Courts – Judge Neidig was appointed as Stone Harbor new Judge at the August 4th Council meeting. Also Shared Service agreement with Avalon for Court Administrator was renewed at the July 21st Council meeting. OEM – Coordinator Ken Hawk reminded the committee that the Borough has use of 1670 am radio station. This station is used to notify the public of an emergency but can also be used to report events happening throughout Stone Harbor. FIRE/EMS – Chief Stanford reports a very busy summer. In July there were 40 fire calls, 213 to date and 89 EMS calls. Comparing the current total fire calls at 230, 2015 totals should result in exceeding that number. Also noteworthy is the Fire dept. assisted with 14 mutual aid, 8 beach EMS, 1 medevac, 19 alarms and 1 lighting strike. One of the 4 Harbor Theater units was closed by the SH Fire Inspector due to unsafe conditions. There are currently 29 fire code violations sited. POLICE – Chief Reynolds reports the return of the SH Police on the back waterways including the Point, with the addition of a 19’ Carolina Skiff police boat. The department is currently training officers for the marine duty. Patrols began this past week-end. Some stats: 2847 incident logged, 13,000 miles patrolled, 325 motor vehicle stops, 70 moving violations, 372 parking violations, 29 motorist assists, 46 medical call assists, 20 adult arrests, 3 DUI, and 22 juvenile arrests. Also conducted training in rifle training range qualification. Individual charged with criminal trespass on July 9th at a home in town & 4 suspects arrested and charged with shoplifting in 2 businesses on July 10 and 13th. Matter pending review by CMC Prosecutor’s office. Committee also agreed that a coordinating meeting will be held with Rob Hicks of the SH Triathlon event with the Police, Fire, Public Works and Recreation depts. To improve on the effectiveness of the yearly event with respect to safety, timing, routing and traffic impacts. National night out was held on August 4th, thanks to all involved to make it a success. Next meeting Thursday, September 10th at 9:00 am. NATURAL RESOURCES DREDGING – Councilmember Rich reported we received the bids for our Dredging Plan. They ranged from 8.3, 10.8 to 17.5 million. These bids were reviewed and studied by our Solicitor, CFO, Borough Administrator and Engineer/Project Manager for this project. On our agenda tonight we have a Resolution to vote to reject these bids and rebid the project. They exceeded the engineer’s estimate for the cost of the project and it appears that certain revision of the specifications would assist the Borough. We had a Dredge Management Meeting on August 5th. We discussed the Army Corp permit, the DEP Historical Preservation interest, issues at Paradise Bay and both Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Florio will help by recruiting homeowner within each basin to keep them informed. This committee plans to have a meeting on Friday, August 21 at 6:00 in the Council room. All property owners surrounding our Marina were invited to attend, including Avalon Residents. This is the area that we will be utilizing to dewater and remove our dredging material. The purpose of this meeting is to provide accurate information to the residents about this process. Our Engineer/Project Manager Matt Dalon will be presenting the details. All are welcome to attend. The Borough also sent letters out to all our Bayfront Property Owners to inform them about our forthcoming dredging project. It explains how individual property owners can participate. A form was included for each property owner to complete and return. Also on our agenda tonight is the introduction of a Bond Ordinance for $5,000,000 more for our Dredging Project. BEACH/POINT: - Thanks to all Borough departments and the Wetlands for all working together to improve and protect the Point this summer. It has been a work in progress. We have a much better understanding how popular this area has become. Our goal is to calmly educate all our visitors. We require Beach Tags in this area and this has been well received and will be working this winter on new wording for some of our signs. Dune Vegetation Management Plan is waiting for approval from DEP, BIRD SANCTUARY: Next Meeting September 18th at 2:00 Thanks for PW for their work in the Bird Sanctuary. Beach, Recreation and Tourism Committee Monthly Report Tuesday, August 19, 2015 The regular meeting of the Beach, Recreation and Tourism Committee was held on Tuesday, August 12. BEACH The number of guarded beaches may decrease in the next few weeks as a result of a late Labor Day and the need for some of the guards to return to school. You can check with the Beach Shack to see which beaches may no longer be guarded. Again, we encourage all of our visitors to swim at guarded beaches and while lifeguards are on duty. Beach tag revenue continues to surpass last year by 5%. Daily tag sales are up nearly 9%, seasonal tags are up 5% and weekly are up just under 4%. We will now start to see the seasonal tag sales drop off. We will be looking into visitors in 2016 having the ability to purchase tags via the kiosks presently at the beach. This way a credit card could be used. A receipt could be presented at the beach shack window to retrieve the actual tags. RECREATION On the agenda tonight is a motion to finalize specs and go to bid for the upgraded facility at Chelsea Park. We have also finalized the design for the fencing at 81st Street playground and hope to have that installed in the next few weeks. Our recreation director is already looking into ideas for the 2016 Stone Harbor Wellness Program and is meeting with the new JIF wellness coordinator to discuss our approach. TOURISM We are combining two events the Tuesday before Labor Day, Sept 1…our final concert and the dedication of our new deck and ramp built by Public Works at 95th Street and the Beach. We will be moving the concert from the Tower Lot to the deck and Eddie Morgan will be playing. The dedication will be held first. Just as they do at the Tower each week, the Chamber of Commerce will have a beer and wine tent and the Museum will be selling pretzels and cookies. Now we will hear more details of day to day operations from our Beach, Recreation and Tourism department heads. BEACH PATROL Beach Patrol Captain Sandy Bosacco reported beach patrol fully staffed with all 60 members trained and certified. This month we had 15 rescues, 7 EMS calls, 2 police calls , 2 catamaran rescues and 18 lost children found. It appears the beaches are more crowded this year than in recent years. Beaches will be covered as staff is available. Call to get list of guarded beaches. RECREATION Miranda Duca, Recreation Director, distributed Summary of 2015 A& C Festival packets to Mayor and Council and attached budget. Recreation end of season picnic was last Friday, great success. Arts & Crafts and Sports Clinics will continue this week. Festival of Lights this past Saturday, August 15th, Mayor will announce award winners tonight at the concert. UTILITIES 8/7/15; All members were in attendance. Many of your heard last month about the configuration problems with the water meters at the Regis Harbor condos. Well the issue was not quite as reported, even though we all had a chuckle over the presentation. The facts were not quite accurate. Remember our Utility Dept employees set the meters the plumber connects them and advises the Utility dept, what meter register number is assigned to what unit. The mistake began there. All corrections were made in June and the credit for the water turnoff charge has been issued and will appear on the next bill with the correct unit being billed for the turn-off. The statement that it could not be corrected until the March 2016 billing was stated in error. What was relayed was that it would not be until that billing when each owner would see their actual sewer volume charge as that is when we adjust all bills based on summer usage. All owners have indicated they do not want to go back to prior years for any adjustment as all billing was very close in usage and dollar amount. That is “the rest of the story.” Our water usage story – not so good. We used 570 K gallons more in July this year than last year. Larger homes are being built, all with grass that need to be watered, swimming pools are now a must at most new homes, more tourist here this year, and some smart system are not allowed to operate in the smart way they were intended. People are finding ways to override the built in sensors and thereby circumvent the ordinance. The committee is looking into ways to stop this. A leak was just discovered in a rental property sold and going to settlement. If it were not for that, the leak probably would not have been discovered until the next billing cycle. At least 600 K gallons of water lost. As of last month we were finally on the positive side using 970 K gallons less over 2014 for the year, this month’s usage drops that to 400K gallons less than last year. When the results of the leak just mentioned appear in the August diversion report, we will probably surpass last years’ usage. Beach outfall pipe removal & the required infrastructure & road paving will begin after Labor Day in the North end. Individual property issues were discussed and resolved or are pending resolution. A preliminary discussion of infrastructure repairs for the next budget year was discussed. A budget review is scheduled for our September meeting. GO GREEN The Go Green Community Committee will meeting 8/20/15 to finalize our plans for our Green Fair. I am happy to report we now have confirmed 21 participants, including our annual paper shredding day and we are expecting several more. Please everyone mark your calendars for 9/12/15 from 11 – 2 at the 94th Street parking lot. We will have something of interest for everyone including the children and your dog. Hopefully, it will be fun filled, educational few hours. Please join us.
Dog Sign sketch was presented from President of Garden Club BRT would like to have last concert at pavilion on 95th Street along with dedication. PW is working on finishing Pavilion and working out the kinks to make this come to fruition. Kiosk machine at Beach, to pay for tags. PW will be programming same in conjunction with the MyPay system we use. PW will provide flyers explain how to use the system at the Beach Shack next year. Grant money being applied for the Water Tower Bath Rooms “house cleaning” for PW and listing items for Gov Deal Museum and PW came to agreement for prioritized list of proposed repairs for 2016. New railings and patching will be started on the side entrance to Borough Hall in late 2015 or 2016. Farmers Market has over 900 Sunday the 9th and over 600 on Sunday the 16th 9/11 Ceremony on Sept 11th at 11:00 am Overtime for PW was read for the various Special Events. 2015 Monthly Report Administration and Finance August 2015 Monthly Meeting – Held our monthly meeting on August 14th. Library Construction – Zoning Officer and Construction Official reviewing designs for new County Library Request from Resident re: 99th Street Parking – Committee reviewed letter received requesting to have parking meters removed from the corner of 99th and Second Avenue, to have street lined so parking spots are more defined, to request that merchants instruct employees not to park on 99th Street and to institute a “Resident Only” system for parking. After a discussion in both Public Works Committee and ours it was determined that while we are sympathetic to the issue we cannot recommend t this time. We will however ask the Chamber of Commerce to encourage business owners to educate employees to the availability of the free lot on 2nd Avenue between 94th and 93rd. Update on Policy for payment of Bills – After a discussion on how to improve the payment procedures the recommendation is to have the Borough Clerk prepare an amendment for Council approval to require the Chief Financial Officer, Borough Administrator and Committee Chair person to sign vouchers for payment. Bill List will be generated on Friday before each Council Meeting. The bill list will be submitted with the agenda for Council approval. Vouchers will be available for Council to review prior to meeting and Chief Financial Officer will bring vouchers to meeting in case anyone has questions. Our next meeting is scheduled for September 9, 2015. Chief Financial Officer – Absent Borough Engineer – The Borough Engineer will give his report.

NJDEP Water Allocation Permit RVW has helped the Borough obtain a water allocation permit modification which increases the monthly and annual diversion from the existing wells.

The key permit conditions involves the installation and operation of a new observation well at the Cape May Airport in the 800-foot sands aquifer.
