Good article in the Press today. I can’t understand why any Cranbury resident would want to change the zone by Monroe to housing and jeopardize our schools and taxes. Also don’t know why the Mayor of Monroe will issue reports and Press releases, but not speak with Jay or any of the papers.

Really? We can't preserve the land? Maybe instead of giving $$$ back to residents in a tax cut nobody I know asked for, you could have used the funds to pay for debt and purchase open space. But all the TC wants is to get ratables. That at least it's Glenn's plan.

Would have been really nice to preserve the farmland on Dey Road.

Do you Indivisible people read? In every article including this one the town tried to buy the land. They tried to preserve the land. The developer knows they can make millions more in developing the land. They cannot force a developer to sell land they own and eminent domain does not apply. What would you have the town do?

BTW, the town allocated money for debt on the lake. And this TC has preserved land so Cranbury has near the most of preserved land percentage wise relative to the rest of the sage.

You cannot pay off bonds early. So they returned the money to taxpayers. Typical Indivisible response ignoring facts.

On Dey rd the town had an agreement to buy it. They had allocated funds and had the contracts drawn up. The landowner sued for the right to sell to Toll instead as part of affordable housing and the court mandated a settlement.

But don’t let facts get in the way. Here is the article of what happened on dey Rd.

So this article is from 2016. I recently stopped in Protinick’s farm stand on Dey road, and received quite a different story.

Lol. What would they say. It is all public record that there was an agreement before they took the toll money.

And yes it is from 2016 because that is when the sale happened. Being three years later now does not change the facts. Indivisible people are so funny. You can’t argue facts and you don’t even say what you heard.

Funny or dangerous? Two Indivisible candidates are running for Township Committee and Two are already on the Committee. Can you imagine what will happen if our township starts making decisions based on complete ignorance of the facts?

The two republican candidates will NEVER win a seat on the TC. You simply cannot attract young families to Cranbury for the excellent schools and expect them to support racist Republican science deniers to run the town.

I know for a fact that Mickey is not a invisible member, nor am I. Try again.

There are two things in play here. 1. The Mayor of Monroe is way way off base by stating that he will stop traffic on the roads. He cannot legally change the traffic patterns.1a. the residents in Monroe did not do their Due Diligence before buying their properties to see what the zoning was adjacent to their properties.
2. The Protinik family was not offered a fair market value for their property by Cranbury as were other previous political figures who owned substantial agricultural acreage.
3. If for some strange reason the Republican Committee members want to donate their 401K's or IRA's to the effort then let them make that donation to the township. The Protiniks should not have been asked to make a donation to the township as their retirement for 100 years of agricultural work was in the value of their property. They earned every cent in sweat equity!

Are you seriously calling the republican candidates for township committee “racists science deniers”?

If so, that’s messed up. Go see a doctor. You have problems.

The bottom line is Mr. Monroe Mayor can't restrict traffic! He also cannot force us to rezone. Monroe lost their way and failed to properly plan and preserve farmland years ago. Cranbury did think things through and planned for the future which is now by preserving farmland and zoning the east of 130 warehouses.

The owner of any property can't be forced to lose his investment in the land he owns to please another town so it really is a dead issue.

Both Jay and Mr. Monroe Mayor should just let this issue die a natural death. ITS OVER!!! and nothing is going to change the zoning.Warehouses will be on the site and too bad for the homeowners in Monroe who failed to do their Due Diligence before they bought their homes.

The Protinicks turned down the towns offer, not much they could have done about that. The committee did their due diligence and age restricted the property for development. Positive addition to the tax base with no impact to schools, maybe some more stress on local services the only downside. Also got the benefit of upgrading Peddie Rd. at a fraction of the cost. I just hope no matter what gets approved out on the Halsey Reed sight the same diligence is applied.

Maybe the township should have offered more. No downside? Well... Let's see what the impact is in a few years when the residents there will decide to cast their vote on an increase in school budget which will come with all the new development in town which will bring surely an increase in the number of Cranbury school kids above and beyond the max we have ever had.

I'm pretty sure that the Township can only offer a certain amount per acre by law and they were locked into the price. However an independent investor can offer whatever they feel they can get away with and still make a profit.
