B. OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

Jordon Gleniewicz of 2 Jared Court stated that he was attending the meeting to observe for a merit badge for Citizenship and Community.

Jim McConnell of 45 Carrell Road asked if a message can be relayed to the garbage collector that cans be put back on the curb, and not in the middle of the road. Manager Mountain responded that he would relay the message.

Judith Stewart of 114 Everdale Road stated that in the Ordinance on wildlife feeding, it indicates that bird feeders should be 4 feet above the ground. Mrs. Stewart felt that 4 feet was too low as deer can reach and knock them down; she felt the wording should state 6 or 8 feet above the ground.

Seeing no one further from the public, the public portion was closed.

C. MANAGER’S REPORT

The Manager reported the following:

• Storm Preparedness—township staff are keeping a vigilant eye on the forecast for Hurricane Joaquin. The emergency management team met and reviewed preliminarily preparations for the storm; based upon this meeting, the Manager felt that the township was sufficiently prepared. If necessary, the team will reconvene to further review necessary actions and/or service needs. Community-wide messages regarding the storm will be sent out on Friday and if necessary again over the weekend. The Manager will keep the Council informed of any storm related actions.
• Country Fair—weather conditions are being monitored for Saturday. The Manager, Russ Newman, and Greg Mohr from the Rotary Club, will make an announcement on Friday afternoon regarding the event.
• Parks Master Plan—the township’s consultant, Pat Hoagland from Brandstetter Carroll, led a well attended public meeting on the Parks Master Plan. Pat provided the public with an update on the progress on the plan, including summarizing the results of the various community surveys, the stakeholder meetings, and a benchmarking analysis of how Randolph’s recreational facilities and programs stack up against other like communities. Pat collected the public’s comments on the progress, and will present it to the steering committee for consideration; they will meet again later this month to begin the process of going through all the data and developing a draft set of recommendations.
• Master Plan Re-examination—a subcommittee consisting of staff, Council representatives, and representatives from the land use boards, Environmental Committee, and Economic Development Committee have begun working with the Township Planner Bob Michaels on the Re-examination of the town’s Master Plan. The purpose of the re-examination is to update the Master Plan to reflect changes in the community since the Master Plan was last reviewed. It will focus on a number of issues, including the changes to the housing element necessary to address the Court’s requirements with respect to affordable housing, the anticipated redevelopment in Mount Freedom and around the Kmart commercial center and South Salem Street and the Route 10 corridor, Office-Laboratory Zone. The Manager will keep the Council updated on the direction taken by the committee.
• Board of Education-Twp Liaison Meeting—the quarterly liaison meeting was held last month; the following was reviewed: the status of the Sussex Turnpike Improvement Project, the water line project, the communication tower, and the recent meeting with realtors. The school briefed the township staff on the Share the Keys program, and provided an update on the beginning of the school year activities. Township staff was also advised that the Board of Ed has hired a new public information coordinator and she has agreed to begin forwarding to the Council her weekly notices on school happenings.

D. APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES

2. Approval of Executive Minutes from September 3, 2015

AYES:
Councilwoman Carey
Councilman Forstenhausler
Councilman Guadagno
Councilman Loveys
Councilman Napoliello
Deputy Mayor Hirniak
Mayor Veech

NAYS: None

E. COMBINED ACTION RESOLUTIONS

Councilman Guadagno asked why there has been an increase in the number of awards and rejections of contracts. Manager Mountain felt it was due to the vendors’ lack of fully completing the submittal, by issues such as forgetting to sign paperwork.

Item #11—Councilman Forstenhausler stated that part of the title is “Estimated Cost Increase $4,000,000,” and asked if that was properly worded. Manager Mountain stated that the estimated cost is $4,000,000, but it is increasing to that amount so the wording is awkward. The Resolution does not need changing, but the title in the agenda should read “Estimated Cost Increase to $4,000,000” (corrected in the minutes below).

Councilman Guadagno made a motion to accept the Combined Action Resolutions. Councilman Forstenhausler seconded the motion, and the following roll call vote was taken:

H. ORDINANCES: INTRODUCTION

1. Ordinance #21-15: An Ordinance Supplementing and Amending the Revised Ordinances of the Township of Randolph, Morris County, New Jersey with the Addition of Chapter 48, Towing Services and Amendments to Sections 28-86 and 28-87

Manager Mountain explained that, as has been discussed before, the township has had some issues with securing a towing contractor through the traditional bid method. The current provider is looking to retire, and there aren’t local vendors who have expressed interest in bidding the project; it has been bid twice, and no bids were received. In speaking with the Township Attorney and looking at the approaches of other towns, most towns have shifted to an Ordinance form for their towing services. The Ordinance provides an opportunity to have on standby, several towing vendors that are vetted through the Ordinance, and allow to rotate through as they are available. It gives the vendors an opportunity for a break so that they’re not the only one on call, it gives the Police Department the ability to utilize someone on an “as available” basis as opposed to waiting for someone to arrive. The Ordinance was crafted in conjunction with Tiena Cofoni, from Ed Buzak’s office, Liz Crescibene, and the Manager. The terms used in the Ordinance for selecting the vendors for qualification are coming right out of the bid specifications. Instead of picking a low bidder, a list of qualified vendors will be selected and they will be rotated on an annualized basis.

Mayor Veech asked if there was a specific number of vendors being chosen. Manager Mountain said there wasn’t, but they expect to have at least 2 or 3. The number of vendors will be decided after the bid process has been completed.

Councilman Guadagno asked how the rotation will take place. Manager Mountain explained that it has not been defined in the Ordinance, but in other towns they establish a sequential order for the month, and then it is changed each month.

Councilman Loveys noted that in Section 48-5 under D & E, the words “contractor” and “operator” are interchanged. He felt that the word operator should be used because operator is defined in the Ordinance. Manager Mountain stated that they should be uniform, and agreed that operator would be the correct word because it is defined.

Councilman Loveys also noted that in Section 48-8 A, insurance and indemnification, numbers 2 and 3 uses the wording “garage liability” and “garage keeper’s liability”; these should also be consistent. Manager Mountain stated that they will check that wording as well.

Councilman Loveys noted that Section 48-10 B, lists Construction Official and Zoning Officer as enforcement officials. He felt the Health Officer should also be listed since property maintenance is included. Manager Mountain agreed that the Health Officer should also be listed.

BE IT RESOLVED, that an Ordinance entitled “AN ORDINANCE SUPPLEMENTING AND AMENDING THE REVISED ORDINANCES OF THE TOWNSHIP OF RANDOLPH, MORRIS COUNTY, NEW JERSEY WITH THE ADDITION OF CHAPTER 48, TOWING SERVICES AND AMENDMENTS TO SECTIONS 28-86 AND 28-87” be introduced, read by title by the Township Clerk and passed on first reading.

BE IT RESOLVED, that said Ordinance shall be further considered for final passage at the meeting of the Township Council of the Township of Randolph on the 22nd of October, 2015 at 7 o’clock in the evening, prevailing time, at the Municipal Building in said Township, at which time and place all persons interested shall be given an opportunity to be heard concerning said ordinance.

2. Ordinance #22-15: An Ordinance Amending Article IV, Wildlife Feeding, of Chapter 24, Health and Sanitation, of the Revised Ordinances of the Township of Randolph, Morris County, New Jersey, to Prohibit the Feeding of Unconfined Wildlife on Private Property

PULLED

Mayor Veech explained that Councilman Guadagno had some concerns regarding Ordinance #22-15, and asked the Councilman to express his concerns.

Councilman Guadagno stated that, although he felt the feeding of wildlife is a problem, his main concern was that the Ordinance was too broad and aiming at all residents when it should be written more specifically for the people who feed the wildlife. Mayor Veech asked that Manager Mountain work with Attorney Ed Buzak to draft an Ordinance with more specific wording.

Councilman Napoliello stated that he doesn’t know how this Ordinance will be enforced.

There was some discussion on what kind of wording should be included as far as the feeding being a public nuisance, and the enforceability of the Ordinance.

Mayor Veech summarized that the Ordinance would go back to Attorney Buzak for revision, and that it will be discussed and introduced at a future meeting.

3. Ordinance #23-15: A Bond Ordinance Providing for Phase II Butterworth Sewer Interceptor Improvements in and by the Township of Randolph, Appropriating $4,000,000 and Authorizing the Issuance of $2,435,000 Bonds or Notes of the Township to Finance Part of the Cost Thereof

Manager Mountain explained that this is the Butterworth Ordinance which is tied to the Westminster/Kushner project. The agreements will be discussed in the Executive Session. This Ordinance provides for the cost at a prevailing wage rate for the project, it provides for the 25% reimbursement that would come from the developer. The passage of this Ordinance allows for the developer to commence with the project.

BE IT RESOLVED, that an Ordinance entitled “A BOND ORDINANCE PROVIDING FOR PHASE II BUTTERWORTH SEWER INTERCEPTOR IMPROVEMENTS IN AND BY THE TOWNSHIP OF RANDOLPH, APPROPRIATING $4,000,000 AND AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF $2,435,000 BONDS OR NOTES OF THE TOWNSHIP TO FINANCE PART OF THE COST THEREOF” be introduced, read by title by the Township Clerk and passed on first reading.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Township Clerk be authorized and directed to advertise said Ordinance in full or by summary with the notice of introduction thereof, in the official designated newspaper according to law.

Councilman Loveys noted that in Section 7, there is a typo in the 5th line. It should read, “or the obligations,” not “of the obligations.” Manager Mountain agreed with Councilman Loveys.

Mayor Veech stated that she had clarified with Manager Mountain that, with the wording of the Ordinance, there would be no liability to the township.

Councilman Guadagno made a motion to introduce the Ordinance. Councilwoman Carey seconded the motion, and the following roll call vote was taken:

I. OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

J. OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

Judith Stewart of 114 Everdale Road reminded the Council that, in the past, she has suggested an Ordinance to require smoking restrictions near the doors of public buildings. Mrs. Stewart again stated her objections to smoking right outside public building doors. She requested that such an Ordinance be discussed at an upcoming meeting. Mayor Veech replied that it would be researched.

Jim McConnell of 45 Carrell Road asked how the Wildlife feeding Ordinance would be enforced. He explained that a police officer would have to see the person putting the food out for the wildlife, and that it would be very difficult to enforce.

Jordon Gleniewicz of 2 Jared Court asked what was being done to prepare for Hurricane Joaquin, and how young people could help. Manager Mountain replied that it is all preparatory at this point, and there isn’t currently opportunity for residents to help; however, residents can help with clean up from the hurricane. The township will be communicating through its various communications mediums should the storm warrant.

Seeing no one further from the public, the public portion was closed.

K. COUNCIL COMMENTS

Councilman Guadagno stated that the Manager should contact the YMCA to prepare for the storm. Manager Mountain explained that Bill Wagner had already contacted Bill Lamia from the YMCA.

Councilman Guadagno explained that there is already a handicapped entrance in the front of the Municipal Building; however, he felt there should be another handicapped door closer to the meeting room. He spoke to the architect who said it would cost about $3,000. Manager Mountain replied that they have included it in the Facilities Master Plan draft that he will be working on with the Council.

Councilman Guadagno also noted that there was a shooting at the shooting range in Randolph. He requested the formation of a committee to determine the safety measures in place at the range and that they are being followed. The Councilman wanted to ensure the community that they are concerned about the shooting, and follow up with a report on the findings. Manager Mountain explained that it was a terrible tragedy, a suicide, at the range; he felt that the best approach would for himself, the Police Chief, and one or two Council liaisons to meet with the owners to discuss the situation. The Manager reported that the range owners had both required and self-imposed safety measures in place. Manager Mountain will work to set up a meeting. Councilman Guadagno, Councilman Forstenhausler, and Mayor Veech would be interested in attending the meeting.

Councilman Napoliello reported that the MAC is looking to have Matt Bellace return to the high school. For $2,500, which the committee has, he holds two assemblies to include all the students, meets with some at lunch as well, and then has a parent presentation at night.

Councilman Napoliello also reported that he attended the Rotary Club meeting. They originally wanted to move the Country Fair back one week, but realized the difficulty in changing everything. They currently have 56 vendors, 13 people participating in the yard sale, and several food vendors. There was a short discussion on the possibility of having the event indoors at the high school or middle school in the future in the event of bad weather. Councilman Forstenhausler asked if it would be feasible in the future to move the Country Fair to earlier in the fall. Councilman Napoliello stated that the Rotary Club has considered some of these suggestions, but he would take them back to the group.

Deputy Mayor Hirniak reported that he, Councilwoman Carey, and Councilman Loveys attended the multi-chamber event at the Roxbury PAC. It was a nice event, and very well attended by various towns.

Mayor Veech reported that she and Manager Mountain have discussed getting the local clergy members together before the winter months to talk about using the temples and churches in emergencies, as well as forming a network between them.
