June 5, 2020 - Mayor's Weekly Update

[anon-467s]

I guess the TC disagrees about our Police as Mayor Scott is agreeing to take these positions and the TC has not said different. This is what we elected. We wanted a change and we got it.

I found this event advertised By mayor scott on the township weB site. Our tax dollars are being used for this ? How much police overtime work there be? Public’s works overtime , fire and first aid cost?

After the protest will the new cranbury historic autonomous zone (CHAZ) be established this evening? If so will it be limited to the historic district ? Asking for a friend.

you already know MAIN street from Old Trenton road to Plainsboro Rd.

I could not hear all of the Mayor’s speech tonight, but it sounded when I got there that he did in fact encourage the defunding of police. I missed part and it was more of a defense. The clapping I heard made it a bit hard to hear as well when he talked of taking the money and putting it elsewhere like Pre-k. I am a bit hard of hearing so apologies. I did see people video taping. If people have a copy it would be appreciated.

Defund Cranbury police? When the child was struck by a car a couple of years ago, Cranbury wanted more police. Very disappointing to
think Matt Scott would make such a recommendation.

The vigil was peaceful. It was a powerful discussion about racism toward Black people. One of the youth that spoke said we should speak out against daily bias and racism in our town. Someone should start with this site. It is a forum for hate and divisions. The owners should shut it down.

Trolls on this page are unhappy with peaceful protest. But then again, trolls are generally selfish and unhappy creatures. It was great seeing mayor Scott there tonight as well as other Democratic members of the TC.

The protest was very well done. It was peaceful. But, Matt still took a position in favor of defunding police. There are FB pages up with that video now. Some may agree and some may disagree. That is not trolling. Again. The evening was a great success and well done by all participants. Nothing should detract from that.

I don't think there will riots and looting like in Trenton and other cities. Most likely just peaceful vigil. As far as calling the county .. for what?

SWAT teams and Prosecutors Office task forces? I'm not sure what that means "calling the county". Pretty much our small department polices community style- the way the rest of the country seems to want. We could probably hold up policing in our tiny hamlet as the way it should be everywhere. I don't think any of this is about Cranbury Police.

I never said it was not positive. It was very peaceful, respectful and I thought well organized. No one is denying Mayor Scott's statements or clarifying them So not sure why you went to my trolling. I pointed out what I heard. It was not trolling to highlight what I heard and ask someone if they had video or clarification.
