The regular meeting of the Recreation Advisory Committee was held on Monday, December 1. BEACH The first 1000 holiday beach tags ordered were sold out over the Thanksgiving weekend. Another 100 tags have been ordered. RECREATION At the Recreation Advisory Committee meeting the locating the dog park at the northeast corner of the recreation filed at 80th Street and First Avenue was discussed. The general feeling of the RAC and the BRT is that the location offers an opportunity for residents and visitors to bring dogs with them for events at the recreation field. RAC will look at ideas for improvements for the dog park. In addition Avalon will be consulted to see if they still wish to share in this endeavor. Also, the RAC will look into the idea of establishing a 501c3to do fundraising to be able to maintain improvements and routine maintenance. After school activities will be moved to the Stone Harbor Elementary School throughout the duration of the Mayor’s Wellness Challenge. This will provide ample time for set up at the Recreation Building for the MWC programs. ASA is very popular and averaging 20 children in grades K through Four. The 2016 Mayor’s Wellness Challenge is just about ready to be rolled out. This year it will be an 8 week program commencing on Monday, January 26. Details will be made available after the first of the year. Again our Recreation Director has outlined an interesting and informative program that will bring residents together throughout our winter months. Dismantling of Chelsea Park began on Monday, December 7. The fencing at the 81st Street Playground is just about complete. The 12 foot section on the west side of the playground is the last to be done. We will be discussing landscaping ideas with the Garden Club. Our idea is to use dune grass and sand to create a natural, “beachy” feel. The Recreation Director, the Administrator and the Borough Engineer are working on bid preparations for the tennis support building. As discussed at previous council meetings the skate park will be dismantled and used for fitness classes next summer. Some skate park items may be repurposed in the new area. The Committee is discussing the employee bonus program that is part of the salaries and wages of the Recreation Department, Beach Taggers and Beach Patrol. This program has been in effect for years and provides incentive to young employees to work throughout the duration of the summer and throughout the duration of the recreation programs. The Recreation Director will be contacting all summer EUS vendors to advise them of the recently passed ordinance requiring background checks for those who will come into contact with Borough employees under the age of 18 as well as recreation program participants under the age of 18. TOURISM Thanksgiving Weekend was a huge success. The town was crowded and all the activities were received well. $1096 was collected at the Carousel located in the Water Tower Parking Lot. This indicates over one thousand rides taken. The Yacht Club prefers to sponsor the 2016 Festival of Lights on July 30 rather than August 13 as suggested by the BRT. The Recreation Director will contact the Yacht Club and advise them to complete a special events application. MISC Policing and protecting the Point was discussed. Restrictions imposed in an effort to protect the environment and the species (both endangered and non-endangered) that inhabit the Point and the sheer size of the area are now presenting challenges from a public safety perspective. The discussion will continue as we try to preserve the Point as well as protect those who use it for recreation. BUDGET ITEMS Items considered for the capital budget include upgrading the bocce court located at Chelsea Park and engineering and design for a new Beach Patrol Headquarters. The Recreation Director will look at options for surfacing the bocce court and a decision can then be made. The approximate cost is $5000. The Committee still needs to review the operating expenses for all areas covered under Beach, Recreation and Tourism.

RVW has met with NJDEP on site at the County Airport and has corresponded with the County to identify the acceptable well location.

Vote 5 Councilmembers AYE COMMUNICATIONS NONE HEARING OF THE PUBLIC ON MEMORIALS, RESOLUTIONS, PETITIONS & COMPLAINTS Gary Jacketti of Beacon Art presented a statue proposal for the new Library. He stated that he just had a meeting with Deb Poulan on the CMC Library and the concept of his statute is from the novel The Old Man and the Sea. He believes the story is relevant to Stone Harbor and states there is room on the Second Avenue side where it could be placed. The trickiest part is the finances. The budget is about $150,000 but he has befriended some very savvy businessmen who are CFO’s, Wall Street Bankers, etc. and he proposes we let them find the funding. Deb Poulan said the County doesn’t have the money but she had agreed to present “seed” money which is about $5,000 to get started and he will use his resources to work on the funding. Councilmember Kramar asked if the Borough has any correspondence from the Library commission or Deb Poulan to the effect that she is supporting this. Mayor had a text from her that they did not have the funding for it. Mayor, doesn’t know how it works, it is not our building and not our land. Councilmember Rich said we have a design committee that helped the County design the present Library. Councilmember Mastrangelo asked if this project has been in front of the Library Commission. Mr. Jacketti said Deb Poulan spoke to them and they liked the concept. Mayor said the Borough will talk to Deb and the Library Commission. Bunny Parzych 9925 Sunset Drive – Asked if there was a report on the issue of the poles. Solicitor Karavan said at this juncture there is not, we have met with the citizen’s organization, outlined the plan of action that we hope to implement within the next week and we should have a report at the next meeting. Frank Dallahan 378 – 95th Street reported he had a conversation with Senator Van Drew last week and asked him if he would intervene for us with the BPU. Had a message from him today saying that he had spoken to Mr. Morz and the interesting part of the message was that according to Mr. Morz there is no deadline to having the work completed in Stone Harbor by Memorial Day . That was new news to him. He is hopeful that if that is correct that gives the Borough and ACE an opportunity to redo ACE plan on undergrounding and also the Borough additional time to develop a finance plan for getting the cables underground. There was also a message from Mr. Palko telling the people in the POAP that the meeting went very well with the Borough Solicitor and what he said exactly was he was surprised at how close both positions were. It is also important to note that the POAP may be an organized group of Stone Harbor residents involved in the ACE project but there are other non-affiliated members of the community who are not members of POAP. He doesn’t think it is necessary to have anybody think that it is the only group of people who are concerned about this matter.

Vote 5 Councilmembers AYE PUBLIC COMMENT Bunny Parzych 9925 Sunset – asked if we got the permit for the dredging, did the dredging permit come in and did it extend beyond January 1st ? Can we dredge until June 1st? Councilmember Rich said we have to be out of the Marina by the 31st of March. It is a possibility they may get it all done by then. Bob Ashman 10301 First Avenue - asked what the status is of the plan for the new police facility? Administrator said plans being worked on then it will go out to bid. He asked if there is anything needed in the budget being worked on now to complete that? Mayor said we will be putting more in the 2016 budget. Frank Dallahan 378 – 95th Street – asked if the Borough was going to provide any detail to the ACE project that was discussed in closed session. Mayor said she asked the Solicitor that and he said that is why we went into closed session, we will not be providing any information. He asked when we can expect to have that information. Mayor said at the next meeting, first meeting in January. Asked if there is any action on the part of ACE that will be taking place between now and the next meeting. Mayor doesn’t know but their game plan is to start something in the 300 block within the next week or so, but not start the directional drilling until January. But we are going to be meeting with them and that may change. Mr. Dallahan said what he has heard is they are going to be erecting a temporary wooden pole somewhere along 95th Street. Mayor said it is up toward the corner, a 35 ft. wooden pole. Information should be going out to make everyone aware of that. Mr. Dallahan asked if ACE is supposed to communicate this information. Mayor said that is what we have been told. MOTION TO ADJOURN Upon motion of Seconded by Councilmember Barry D.
