She was a no show for the Corzine event in her own city and she refuses to answer questions put to her by other elected officials and residents. Neither she nor corporation counsel or the city administrator have answered any of Mapp's questions. Look at how evasive Dashield was to the questions Mapp asked that came directly from the residents and taxpayers who attended his August town meeting. My fear is that they will go to any lengths to cover their screw ups regarding the Monarch. There's no way that any of the council can go forward with this abatement or anything else until the legality of the deal is worked out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-18233076788643599472009-10-02T14:14:17.228-04:002009-10-02T14:14:17.228-04:00Selling the properties on a negotiated, non-compet...Selling the properties on a negotiated, non-competitive developer agreement basis to Dornoch was not done according to state law. Since the lots were owned by a public agency (ultimately the UCIA - a public agency),based upon the New Jersey Local Land and Public Buildings law, surplus publicly-owned property must be sold to the highest bidder at auction or by sealed bid. The only exception that would allow a non-competitive negotiated agreement is if the properties were designated to be in a redevelopment zone. Only one of the total assemblage was in a redevelopment plan; this designation does not transfer to the rest of the lots. (They must also go through the extensive process.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-40963052031352205582009-10-02T14:03:59.027-04:002009-10-02T14:03:59.027-04:00It will be resolved Dan, unfortunately the Lawyers...It will be resolved Dan, unfortunately the Lawyers, UCIA, Enginners and Advisors will all get <a rel="nofollow">PAID extra</a> to sort it out, so who is the fool here ?

Those of us who were asked of the mayor, six weeks ago, to be tenant association chairs have not yet received the information she promised to email us and I haven't received an answer to an email I sent about that subject two weeks ago. <br /><br />The citizens of Plainfield really need to consider whether we want four more years of this.
