[quote="anon-4os8"][quote="JoJo-7n38"]Keep voting for democratic’s and this is what happens[/quote] Relevance of political party or elected officials to this story? The main action was by the long standing Zoning Officer who is a paid employee. And the Planning Board which has one Republican and one Democrat member of the TC, plus various appointed people the majority of which happen to be Republicans, though I don't see how that's relevant to the issue. Plus the entire project is a result of a Republican and former Planning Board member selling his property to Penske. It doesn't seem political at all, but if you're going to try and mischaracterize it that way it's hard not to pin it on Republicans.[/quote]

Wow. So Art who had more battles with the zoning officer than anyone else in the history of the town is suddenly getting favorable treatment? <br /> <br />Paul himself admitted that the EC found no environmental or Riparian issues to stop the Penske application. The EC was all about their view that the zoning officer erred in his decision despite the fact that he makes it in consultation with the planner and town attorney. So Paul is better informed than three peoplee who do zoning as a job and have experience? <br /> <br />I love Jay as a dictator line. You Indivisible folks crack me up because he told you the CRc had no place in town. He’s probably the least dictator and most Cranbury concerned on the committee. He does more volunteer work in town than Mike or Matt combined. The only thing I can see close to dictator is the 3 minute rule for comment he follows which was instituted by Mike and Matt last year. Mike was the one who developed rules for the meetings which never existed before and seems the most like a dictator telling people what they must do and limiting speech. So please enlighten me what dictator actions does he take? Show some examples. <br /> <br />I also find it funny that one of the people running for a Dem seat has a website calling this board conservative when most of the posts start by bashing Glenn, Jay and Dan. <br /> <br />So Yes let’s right the ship and kill the town by electing people advocating for more housing and higher taxes. This TC got us through the recession, lowered our taxes, was able to get two major road repairs worth 3 million done for essentially nothing and dredge the lake. All in the same budget so the debt won’t impact future taxes. Indivisible people would crack me up if they were not so intent on ruining the town.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>anon-0424</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Fri, May 17 2019, 10:25 pm EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Penske Trucking</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>anon:0qs9-0076 wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">Here is the deal=In many folks opinion Art has feathered his bed for a long long time with his positions on various boards.

I am smart enough to realize that 200 apartments would kill my home value and children’s education. <br /> <br />Unfortunately, Indivisible and all their cronies don’t care about Cranbury or the residents they are blinded by self interest and an insular circle. They either don’t have kids affected if Princeton goes away or they have the funds for private school. <br /> <br />Not one person running on the Indivisible ticket has anything besides a social issue and platform. They want higher taxes for nice to have items, more housing and and to change our town to Princeton.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>anon-s316</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, May 16 2019, 7:57 am EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Penske Trucking</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Glenn is probably the best TC member ever.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>anon-4485</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Wed, May 15 2019, 10:12 am EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Penske Trucking</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">- The last point is most relevant. It is the typical, I got mine attitude we see all over. He took advantage of Princeton and no longer sees a benefit for the school. So he doesn’t care that building of 200 apartments will cost us Princeton, higher taxes and new schools. He can move away from Cranbury leaving us with the mess to clean up. <br /> <br />Then what about personal accountability: <br /> <br />- he contradicts himself. First saying he did not understand the term similar uses and then proceeds to say the Zoning Officer made the wrong decision. As a DRC member he should know the Zoning Officer follows local Ordinances and state law. He also consults with the Town legal counsel and aplanner before ruling. To believe Paul would mean that all three did not understand the law around the zoning. Which brings us to the fact he starts by admitting he did not understand the similar uses language. <br /> <br />- Even if the Zoning Officer ruled against Penske the Zoning Board would be likely forced to grant a variance given the similar uses in the zone. <br /> <br />- Paul sits on the DRC, but doesn’t do his homework or prepare? If as he states originally the Zoning Officer is making a mistake and knowing the zoning officer’s opinion is key on an application why not find out what the zoning officer decided before his meeting? He excuses his lack of prep essentially by saying the whole DRC is asleep at the wheel. That makes me feel even better. <br /> <br />- If so concerned then Glenn is right that Paul should have told the public before the PB voted not after. Why wait until the residents can’t do anything? The answer is...it is a political letter to get his TC candidates elected.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
