[quote="anon-qor3"][quote="anon;oqs5-0076"]Can someone please explain why Mayor Taylor has spent so much energy along with substantial township attorney fees to get two ordinances that were just voted down created? Actually there was no vote because no member would make the motion to bring these ordinances up for a vote. 
 Along with that folly why did we need a 20 plus page contract with Historical Society for the house that is to be moved to the park on Old Trenton Road? A simple contract just like the one on the History Center would have been sufficient. It also would have been nice to have given the contract to the Historical Society in time for them to read it but as usual everything is at the last minute[Remember Penske!]
 Fortunately there were some folks who really knew what they were talking about and even though there was little notification on these new ordinances[as usual] the board members without Mayor Taylor [who was conveniently absent] listened and in all good conscience could not vote yes on The Mayor's ordinances.
    It certainly seems that both the Mayor and Administrator who oversee these things have kept the rest of the committee members out of the loop and the community in the dark. It really is a shame that the circus we call our local government is run so ineptly. 
Its about time the proposed ordinances are posted [as complete documents not just by number and name] in a timely manner for everyone to review and that the first and second reading is more than a formality. This nonsense of keeping the public without comment in the dark and no consideration during the initial phases of a new ordinance only lines the pockets of the attorney. The township attorney serves at the pleasure of the Mayor and as many of us see things it just may be time to look for a new attorney who is not so attached to some of our committee members.
Before any ordinance is created there needs to be public notice and comment and that will allow for creative ideas and participation by the public who will be affected by these new ordinances. Cranbury is a town of more than just a few select folks who run everything; it is a town where all folks should have a say as to what actions are taken and what monies are spent.
It is time to keep the public properly informed.[/quote]

Since you know so much, what are the ordinances about? And when did the vote take place that you claim he conveniently missed?[/quote]
