on the Bill List. Does anyone have any questions on the Bill List?
Mr. Russell? I was going to say Mr. Nelson, I’m sorry. Mr.
Russell has some questions for the Bill List. Name and address
for the record, please.
Nelson Russell, Budd Lake: More comments than questions. I’m
seeing on page 1 that we’re spending $1,806 for the Animal
Hospital, just to go back into our previous…
Vice President Labow: Mrs. Maniscalco, is that the boarding and
euthanasia for April?
Mr. Sohl: Is that a question? What’s the question? We spent
$1,806 on the Animal Hospital.
Mrs. Maniscalco: What, Colleen?
Vice President Labow: The question for page 1 for Golub.
Mrs. Maniscalco: He just made a comment. He didn’t ask a
question.
Mr. Russell: I just think that’s $1,800 we didn’t
have to spend.
Mr. Sohl: Okay.
Mr. Russell: Page 14, I’m seeing non contract repairs for
almost $18,000.
Mrs. Maniscalco: Tim, that’s Sanitation which I know you
know we spoke about the other day.
Mr. Russell: That’s Sanitation?
Mr. Quinn: One of them was $12,000 and change for an insurance
payment due to an accident to the vehicle. Another, I think it
was $4,000 of that but I might be a little off, but it was an upper
end of that engine that had to be rebuilt in one of the packer
trucks.
Mr. Roman: Tim?
Mr. Russell: But we are covered by insurance, right?
Mr. Quinn: For the $12,000 yes.
Mr. Roman: And that gets paid to Penske Truck Leasing?
Mr. Quinn: Basically the repairs were handled through Penske for
where the truck had to be sent to get the repairs done to it. It
was front end damage.
Mr. Roman: Penske, the maintenance provider?
Mr. Quinn: Maintenance provider. What they did is they have the
account set up with the vendor who did the major repairs to the
truck. Again, it was a packer truck so Penske pays it and the insurance
reimbursed Penske for the repairs.
Mr. Roman: So we will eventually get reimbursed by insurance for
$12,000?
Mr. Quinn: We have been, yes. It’s all been reimbursed.
It’s done.
Vice President Labow: Anything else, Mr. Roman?
Mr. Russell: Page 15, I’m seeing $82,000 for a portable
inspection system. I wonder what that is.
Vice President Labow: Tim’s coming back.
Mrs. Maniscalco: Tim, that’s your Jet Vac.
Mr. Quinn: It’s the sewer camera system that we purchased
for the sewer department down in Flanders. It’s for inspecting
sewer lines, storm drainage lines and it was partially, the payment
was assisted also by Washington Township. It’s going to be
a shared piece of equipment between the two Towns.
Mr. Russell: Thank you.
Vice President Labow: Alright, any other questions on the Bill
List?
Mr. Roman: No questions, I just want to make a comment. Personally,
I’m happy that we as a Township provide this Bill List not
only here in paper, but also on the website. I have been imploring
the Board of Education to make their Bill List public. That’s
it.

Licitra, our Legislative liaison, as well as Assemblyman Gary Chiusano
and Assemblywoman Allison McHose attended the rally up at Callremi,
as did quite a few of our Council members and a lot of residents.
So they are showing their support. As a matter of fact, Gary Chiusano
gave an interview with Channel 12, which I understand was on at
10:00 Sunday night maybe, talking about the economic impact that
this is having upon our community.
Vice President Labow: I know when I got there in the afternoon
they had 870 signatures already. It was quite a turnout.
Mr. Perkins: Up to 1,500 today.

Report, Mr. Perkins. I’m going to bounce down to the Pride
Committee. We don’t have anything to report right now. We
have Board of Education and now we’re on to you, Mr. Roman.
Board of Education Liaison Report
Mr. Roman: Last night there was a Board of Education meeting.
It was rather dull, boring, not much was said. I mean, the gist
of it was on a positive note. The Teachers of the Year were recognized.
It was rather impressive to see that a good portion of the crowd
that was there last night were there to support the Teacher’s
of the Year. So at least there was some positive that came out
of it. There were a lot of heartfelt speeches from some of the
teachers, and yes there were lengthy public comments regarding
the bussing, and I’d like to report that the Mayor and Mr.
Tobey were there. Mr. Greenbaum was also in attendance and that’s
it.
Vice President Labow: Lake Environment Issues Committee, Mr. Rattner?
Lake/Environment Issues Committee
Mr. Rattner: Nothing to report.
Vice President Labow: Safety Committee, Mr. Perkins?
Safety Committee Liaison
Mr. Perkins: Just to reiterate what Mr. Sohl has already reported
on, other than the first day glitch with the radio communications,
everything seems to be going very well. The squads are working
together reasonably comfortably.

and swore in the new officers. It was a nice event to see a little
changing of the guard, and Mrs. Lashway has the listing of the
officers for you to take, Colleen.
Vice President Labow: Thank you very much. Public portion, anybody
from the public want to address the Council?

COUNCIL COMMENTS
Mr. Tobey: Nothing.
Vice President Labow: Mr. Perkins?
Mr. Perkins: Enough said.
Vice President Labow: Mr. Roman?
Mr. Roman: We recently had the Primary election and what I’d
like to say is that I’m not extremely happy with the outcome
of that election. One of the main reasons is that we have to find
somebody to fill some of these other Committees.
Vice President Labow: Mr. Rattner?
Mr. Rattner: I wasn’t real happy either. I have no comments.
