PUBLIC COMMENTS AS TO PROPOSED RESOLUTIONS

Council President Diehl opened the meeting to the public for comments on Proposed Resolutions R.395-062015 &

R.440-072015 and R.460-082015 – R.580-082015.

Esther Nemitz, 162B Fay Street, said she counted sixty-three tax appeals on the list and asked if we are bonding for

them.

Ms. Ruane replied we already did.

Ms. Nemitz, regarding Resolution R.476-082015, asked why we are giving this company any more money when the

microphones don’t work properly. She said they did not even last one hour at the Planning Board Meeting.

Ms. Ruane explained the additional funds and said they are not finished tweeking the system.

Council President Diehl agreed with Ms. Nemitz on the microphones however, he doesn’t think we should stop

payment.

Fred Wolke, 10 Peake Road, regarding Resolution R.480-082015, said he looked at this site and it is a bunch of

trees. He felt this should be remediation and not redevelopment.

Mr. Kataryniak explained that Resolution R.480-092015 is the proposal to recommend rehabilitation.

Mr. Wolke asked if there is a need for Resolution R.468-092015 for a Temporary Solid Waste budget.

Ms. Ruane said there is no need now that the budget passed.

Julian Zammit, 17 Stiles Road, on Resolution R.440-082015 he asked the cost of the labor.

Ms. Ruane said there is no overtime the work schedule is adjusted to fit the leaf bag distribution. She said this is the

cheapest way to purchase through the co-op and it is a not to exceed contract.

Mr. Zammit said he feels this amount of money should be used more wisely and not on leaf bags. He felt the

employees could be better used filling pot holes.

Councilmember Gomez said many residents especially our senior population benefit from this program. He said he

does not want to eliminate any services and he will be supporting this Resolution.

Lois Wolke, 10 Peake Road, regarding Resolution R.487-082015, said this is another law suit we are awarding and

felt we should be doing something about this instead of arguing over $65,000 for leaf bags.

There were no other comments from the public regarding Proposed Resolutions. On a motion made by

Councilmember Karabinchak, seconded by Councilmember Gomez and duly carried, the public hearing was closed.

The following Resolutions R.395-062015 and R.460-082015 through R.486-082015 and R.488-082015 through

R.580-082015 were adopted under the Consent Agenda on a motion made by Councilmember Karabinchak and

EXPLANATION: A Resolution approving the negotiated settlement terms with respect to the litigation

filed by Edward Wheeler, et als., Docket No. MID-L-6767-13.

WHEREAS, the Township of Edison (“Township”) is a defendant in a lawsuit (Docket No.: MID-

L-6767-13) (“Lawsuit”) along with co-defendants Thomas Bryan, Gregory Formica and the Estate of Brian

Collier (collectively, “Co-Defendants” and, together with the Township, the “Defendants”) filed by

plaintiffs Edward Wheeler, Jeffrey Suriano, Fred Huth, Natale Fresco, Joseph Vasta, Jerome Sisolak and

Shawn Meade in New Jersey Superior Court (collectively, “Plaintiffs” and, together with the Defendants,

the “Parties”); and

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs have asserted various claims in the Lawsuit including violations of the New

Jersey Constitution, Article I, among other such related claims; and

WHEREAS, the Defendants do and shall not admit liability to any party to the Lawsuit or

otherwise, but are desirous of avoiding the cost and expense of further litigation; and

WHEREAS, the Parties have negotiated settlement terms to fully and finally resolve all claims

among them, including, but not limited to, all claims in the Lawsuit, premised on the Township’s payment

of a lump sum of $200,000 to Plaintiffs in exchange for Plaintiffs’ release of all claims against the

Defendants and dismissal of the Lawsuit; and

WHEREAS, the municipal council of the Township (“Municipal Council”) desires to approve the

settlement terms reached by the Parties described herein in settlement of the Lawsuit.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Municipal Council of the Township of

Edison, in the County of Middlesex, State of New Jersey as follows:

1. The recitals are hereby incorporated as if restated herein in full.

2. The terms of settlement described herein are hereby approved and accepted. The Mayor or his

designee is hereby authorized to sign any documents required to fulfill the terms of settlement.


Councilmember Mascola said he cannot support another law suit settlement. He feels we need to send a

message that you just cannot file frivolous law suits against the Township. We need to put a stop to this.

Councilmember Shah said she agrees but at what cost. She said she is not happy about the law suits but we

still have to deal with them. She said she will support this because it comes down to money and she does not

want to spend more than we have to.

08/19/2015

A motion was made by Councilmember Lombardi, seconded by Councilmember Gomez to adopt this

Resolution.

AYES - Councilmembers, Gomez, Karabinchak, Lombardi, Shah and Council President Diehl

NAYS – Councilmember Mascola

Councilmember Prasad was absent

ORAL PETITIONS AND REMARKS

Council President Diehl opened the meeting for public comment.

Joseph Kaczas, 24 Carlton Street, said he has been living here since 1966. He said his taxes went up

$450.00 this year. He explained that in 2012 he filed a tax appeal and his taxes were cut by $1700 for three

years. He asked why an appeal is only good for three years and why he must file again. He also complained

about his road crumbling.

Council President Diehl explained the economic times change and you have to file again.

Mr. McManimon explained how property taxes are based on assessed value and are driven by market

conditions and features of your home at that time.

Council President Diehl said he will have someone look at his road.

Mike Orlowski, 26 Sheryl Drive, said taxes do not go down in Edison. He said he received copies of

Government Strategy invoices and feels the contract should have been a labor hour or time and materials

contract. He asked who wrote the contract.

Ms. Ruane replied that the attorney’s write the contracts.

Mr. Orlowski asked which attorney prepared this contract.

Councilmember Lombardi said the Finance Committee met with Government Strategy Group but had

nothing to do with preparing the contract. We felt that the Township Attorney did his due diligence and the

Council passed the Resolution allowing the Administration to sign the contract.

Mr. Orlowski asked if Mr. Northgrave would have looked at the terms of the contract.

Ms. Ruane replied that it was Mr. Northgrave’s firm

Mr. McManimon said he cannot speak about the particulars of this contract but in some incidents

professional consultants are engaged by a public body and they submit their contracts.

Councilmember Gomez felt Mr. Orlowski is implying that Government Strategy Group does not work

enough hours. He felt that we are looking for management of our finances. He said the Finance Committee

developed an outline for one year and there are controls.

Mr. Orlowski said the invoices submitted should indicate the amount of hours. He does not mind paying

more if he knows what he is paying for and this is the last time he will bring this up.

Julian Zammit, 17 Stiles Road, asked if the leaf bag Resolution passed or failed.

Council President Diehl said it failed.

Walt Shneer, Park Way, said the Morris Goodkind Bridge is in need of repair.

Mr. Kataryniak said he has been in contact with the State and County and they are in the process of making

those repairs.

Mr. Shneer, asked who will be occupying the warehouse space at the former Revlon site and also at 2900

Woodbridge Avenue. He asked how much our taxes went up.

Councilmember Gomez replied 2.9% on the municipal tax.

Councilmember Mascola felt in comparison to other municipalities we are lacking leadership in economic

development.

Councilmember Karabinchak said the Administration brought in a planner and there is a list but change is

hard and there is only so much we can do on the commercial and industrial side.

08/19/2015

Councilmember Shah said in the future we should sit down with the School Board when planning new

houses. She felt we take down smaller homes to build Mansions without thinking about where we will put

the children.

Fred Wolke, 10 Peake Road, asked where residents can find out about the senior freeze on taxes.

Ms. Ruane said there are forms at the tax counter and also on the website.

Council President Diehl added that there are income and age requirements.

Lois Wolke, 10 Peake Road, felt we should only allow one bedroom condo units to be built in order to keep

the amount of children to a minimum.

Councilmember Karabinchak said he agrees with smaller one bedroom units.

Councilmember Mascola asked the status of hiring a Public Works Director. He asked if we have a head

hunter working on it.

Ms. Ruane said we do.

Hearing no further comments from the public Councilmember Mascola made a motion to close the public

hearing, which was seconded by Councilmember Karabinchak and duly carried.

Having no further business to discuss, on a motion made by Councilmember Karabinchak, seconded by

Councilmember Gomez, the meeting was adjourned at 8:43 p.m.
