Ramblings of a Busy Man

I apologize for the long gap between postings – the largest to date. Unfortunately, for those interested in breaking news, erudition, and beautifully written prose, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait a bit longer. Should any of you, for reasons unknown, be interested in the disjointed ramblings of a person too busy to show his readers the minimal respect of a coherent sentence, by all means, please continue reading.

I already miss the days when I didn’t just break the news, I made the news. I’d love to muse about how none of the candidates running for town council have ever won an election. Or how Gregory Cannon has never voted in Aberdeen because he’s always been registered in Matawan. I don’t think that violates residency requirements but, if the Republicans had enough money for an attorney, we could have had another show like the one his father gave us.

It also reminds me of a school board member who never (recently?) voted in a school district election until he voted for himself.

I’ll write about the town budget when I see it but so far I’m unimpressed. There’s been talk of requiring town employees to take unpaid furloughs and the town has taken the state’s offer to defer pension payments. The school district had that same opportunity and declined saying the later payments would be too expensive and there were too many unknowns in the program. Looks like the town may be more concerned with good press than good financing. If we don’t have the money for the pension payments, we should take it from the surplus. Better yet, how about taking it from the road program?

As for Matawan’s fiscal condition, it’s only a matter of time before they’re forced to merge with another municipality. Problem is nobody wants them; Matawan’s been under-investing in their infrastructure for over a decade.

I’m glad to see the RCM developments are off the table for now but they’ll be back. This November, control of the town council is up for grabs. Two years later, it’ll be the same story. My guess is the town leadership will wait till the state gives preliminary approval to the COAH plan and then tell everyone we have no choice because it’s a state mandate.

The development on Church St. is another story. We won’t see anything there until CME has milked that cow dry. The $400,000 grant for soil testing will likely show the site requires soil removal and we’ll need an engineer to plan and oversee that project. Then, assuming the developer is still interested, CME will need to review all variance requests and construction.

As for the school board, changing from outspoken critic to insider has been quite jarring. Like many, I was distraught over the district was not providing AP Chemistry next year. My first thought was – we have to do something to prevent this in the future. Then I thought – future? We have to do something now!

I asked the high school administration if we could reinstate the class if I recruited enough students to register. Sure, they said. Just keep in mind the following – The students have to qualify for an AP class so they don’t slow down other students. Next, you don’t want to steal students from physics or biology so those classes don’t have enrollment issues. Lastly, if you recruit juniors, their schedules need to match and they need to have taken high school chemistry.

I got the message – we only have a limited number of students qualified to take AP science and, of those who could, most of them wanted physics or biology. The real problem is that not enough students are interested or qualified to take AP science and there’s not enough time to rectify that before the school year is over.

My next education was in personnel. The next board meeting isn’t scheduled until after the election so I was invited to interview two candidates for Director of Special Services. Both were certainly well qualified but I was surprised we only had two candidates. When I asked Dr. O’Malley, he said that after months of advertising and working the grapevine, the administration could only find two qualified people willing to work in our district.

Surprisingly, there’s been very little talk of the half-dozen candidates or so for the open seat on the school board. I think it’s because we can’t imagine having so many candidates. It reminds me of a scene from Seinfeld when Jerry and George go to visit a pizzeria from their high school days before it closes down. After hearing how much they loved the place, the owner responds “So where you been all these years. We’re dying here.”

I know all the school board regular attendees and, to my knowledge, only one of them has applied for the position. Does the community have such low regard for the school board to believe that any well-intentioned individual should be able to waltz in and take a seat? I wonder how many candidates at least attended the school board meeting after filing their applications.

For some good news, I was able to say Birchas Hachamah this morning. It’s a blessing we only say at the beginning of the solar cycle when it starts on a Wednesday morning, same as the time of creation. Since the solar cycle doesn’t match the weekly calendar, we only get to say it once every twenty-eight years, and that’s assuming we can see the sun. Today was also only the third time in 1300 years we said it the morning before Passover.

On that note, I must bid farewell and wish my Jewish and Christian brothers-in-arms happy holidays. I hope to be back in form soon.

Wow! This was a lot of fun! I have a few comments, and then i'm going to re-read your post again. I live in Matawan, and in regards to your comment about Aberdeen requesting the pension deferrment, I think that stinks for Aberdeen taxpayers. Deferring a liability is just that - the payments still have to be made - and there will not be any savings to the taxpayer - not a dime! Maybe you will get lucky and they won't get their paperwork in on time and they won't get "approved"! Do you know if Matawan is planning the same move? And, finally, i wholeheartedly agree that the Board should be interviewing more than 2 candidates. I can't tell you how many times Larry O'Connell would (as a Larry fan, i always enjoyed it when he questioned Mr. Quinn)question Mr. Quinn as to the number of applicants for ANY position on the agenda. Obviously, we all know how important the Director of Special Services is, and certainly the search should continued.
Thanks again for the new post! And Happy Passover and Easter to fellow bloggers!

I have been reading and watching, waiting and remembering and now I enter the fray on what seems to be the "I hate Norman Kauff" bandwagon. Aberdeen is in for bigger problems then a pension payment deferral. Very soon council meetings will be all about the Kauff controlled and taxpayer funded campaign payment lottery that is the CM&E kickbacks. Since it is spring, the typical road programs will be funded and that means campaign 2009 is underway.

But there is more for Kauff to plan around what with the economy and all. The Aberdeener has touched on a few things like the furlough plan the Aberdeener suggested is being considered by council leadership. That will more then likely not happen as Kauff knows what will happen if you furlough eighty or so employees. What do you get from that move? The answer is nothing but a whole lot of people who will be pissed off from losing money while CME and Kauff get fat while the everyday worker gets furloughed. That alone means a whole bunch of pissed off family votes as well. Sadly the whole Kauff control plan is about ensuring every single vote for this election, a monumentally important control election to boot. Kauff may have already pissed off a couple hundred people in my area over the projects they tried to push through, but Gumbs will try her best to change that for her Kauff. Then add the republicans and what they may do, which is questionably Minotol controlled. No scratch that as the republicans know what they need to do but won't do anything with Nick in charge. Kauff plan or not Nick Minotol was bad for the democrats and is a nightmare waiting to unfold and yet to show his true colors for his too trusting republicans brethren.

It is expertly crafted by Kauff as it is called simply "divide and conquer". One has to give credit where credit is due. Kauff is masterful.

Look what Kauff has now knocked off the ticket, the much criticized and too much baggage incumbents, aligned himself with Matawan with an astounding father and son team, taken already seated or to now be seated planning and zoning board members and decisions he will continue to control , which then allows Kauff to control every single money making aspect of Aberdeen all at taxpayer expense and detriment. I can assure you Dave Samules and all the other rats aboard the USS Kauff are already counting the millions they will make from the Kauff controlled Aberdeen ATM machine.

There are however a few things that Kauff has still not figured out and just perhaps a few surprises that fans, critics and others may have for him before the switches start getting pulled behind the voting booth curtain on election day. This Kauff needs to worry about but he won't because after all he is Norman Kauff the King of Aberdeen. Like the story goes "all the kings horse and all of the kings men couldn't" Ok that one will not end well as I hoped. I do hope and pray this election that Kauff should not count on having his democratic control "put together again".

There are numerous factors and possible equations to consider most of which Kauff thinks he has avoided by his choice of candidates. Sure, everybody loves Jimmy Lauro. Sure Fred Tagliarini is personable and has the athletic league parents to bring to the table. Mrs. Montone is a Kauff controlled board hack and the other guy is fodder to merely fill the ticket.

The real problem for Kauff will be m-o-n-e-y to operate his Aberdeen. He will have to raise taxes this year and next but that works since the school tax is zero for now so people do not feel the big pinch. Kauff will wave the road program flag like it is the end all to all of Aberdeen problems. He will have fresh faces to say look at the new start for Aberdeen but will that be enough?

As my father used to say there are cockroaches in every kitchen and Kauff's cockroaches have not shown themselves as of yet. Kauff knows if the CME money and costly mistakes get out, it is a problem. Kauff knows if, and I pray to God this happens, investigators swoop in and look at the monies paid, the parking lot developer shakedown, the hidden interests in the still to be developed properties in Aberdeen come to light, if questions start being asked about the former manager Mark Coren and his funny math, if recently Kauffed out of office town manager Brown gives a little insight into the Kauff control and worse, and last but not least there is the big Kauff problem of former councilperson Jen Gallo whose son-in-law has passed his probationary period and can't be held over her head any longer. If Jen speaks out on her Kauff induced departure you could then get my daughter ferret elected in Aberdeen against the Kauff slate of beholders.

That is of course only if a grass roots effort gets out and hits the ground running. Unfortunately the republicans are shattered, unfunded and ill advised. Kauff gave big mouth Mcaleer a job so he is defused, too many people are on the Kauff payroll, and finally then there is Vinci. Vinny Vinci you have to give it to the man if he is nothing else he is well known around town. The problem is nobody really knows him and it he just seems like he is everywhere. Those who really know him probably don't trust him and the few friends he has are Kauff funded or are otherwise beholding to Kauff. I mean sure most of the numbers gang he knew are dead now. Then there is the shrinking old timers in Oakshades. There is the selfishness of his intersection and the land giveaways. But though it all it is like his hair color, his hair dye is the same color as his heart, black as the night. Vinci has been so dishonest for so long he could not get absolution if he went to church ten times every morning. Yeah Vinny I see your car most mornings as I go over to the parkway.

I only hope that the voters and the authorities wake up and save us from another four years of Kauff and his corrupt den of thievery.

Good luck Aberdeen as I am six months from retirement and then it is hello West Virginny. It will not be fun to watch and very sad that it was avoidable. Voters wake up to the reality of Kauff and his assorted thieves.

I awake and find the train ride I take everyday is now to go up on a DOOMSDAY FARE INCREASE. The excuses these leaders and budget mongers are coming up with makes it seems that the stimulus money is the end all and that it seems to end all financial problems for everything. This seems to be just a convenient and overzealous plan to milk the taxpayers even more under a doomsday scenario pushed of course by unaccountable by politicians. Let me get on my train now at its present excessive cost. See ya.

Interesting Mr. Warren, that once you are on the inside - you see things from a little different point of view and everything is not so cut and dry.....

I could see a future story about our "terrible" school cutting a class, but now you learned the real reason....

Good Luck to you as you enter your 3 year term and happy holiday.

Out come the haters for a man who has just started his trek to do good for our school district. This of course is done in a positive way while those about to bow out through the back door will do so without one shred of accountability for the damage they caused to the learning environment in this district as well as the overwhelming costs they have placed upon the taxpayers, which will linger for years and years.

I am certain that Mr. Warren has earned his place if not by normal means at least by his involvement and his repeated notifications to the public at large, that all things are not as it seemed to have been portrayed. That as they say is politics.

I am once again truly amazed at what can go on in our Aberdeen under the eyes of an often too busy citizenry. Things need to change people. If it does not change by those elected to do so, then it should be by citizen demand.

Happy holidays to all.

Aberdeen projects put on hold
Residents object to plans for rental units in Cliffwood
BY ERIN O. STATTEL Staff Writer
Residents of Cliffwood told the Zoning Board of Adjustment last week that they want new development in their section of Aberdeen Township to be the same as in other parts of town, a mix of rental and owner-occupied housing.

The residents filled the room during the April 1 Zoning Board of Adjustment meeting on two development applications: an application to build affordable rental units in Cliffwood, and another for town homes along Route 34 near the Strathmore section of the township.

"We didn't think it was fair to only put low- to moderate-income housing in one section of town," said Melisa McLeod, spokesperson for the Cliffwood Homeowners Association. "We don't want that concentrated amount of renters; we want homeowners coming into our neighborhoods because those residents will own their own homes and won't just pack up and leave."

The residents were at the meeting to hear the official adjournment of the two applications requested by the developer after residents voiced concerns over the fairness of the plans. "Right now, my client is asking for it be adjourned because my client is considering revision to the plans," explained RCM Group attorney Craig Gianetti, of Giordano, Halleran and Ciesla, Red Bank. "Right now, [one of the applications] is 100 percent affordable residential units, and my client is looking to address some of the concerns of the community."

The Zoning Board agreed to adjourn the applications last week after residents objected that rental affordable housing units were planned for the Cliffwood section town while market-rate housing was proposed for the Route 34 corridor.

RCM Group LLC applied for a use variance from the Aberdeen Township Zoning Board of Adjustment in 2006 in order to construct a 62-unit townhouse complex in the highway commercial zone on the northbound side of Route 34.

The application that drew residents' objections also sought a use variance for 132 affordable residential rental units within 11 buildings between Salem Place and Moore Place in Cliffwood in both a light industrial zone and a conservation/ recreation zone.

According to the hearing notice, the 132 multifamily units slated for development on roughly 17 acres near County Road were to be completely deed-restricted for affordable housing.

The other application requested a simultaneous use variance for a proposed 62-unit townhouse development on Route 34, which were to be completely marketrate units, without any affordable housing units.

McLeod emphasized that the group of residents is not opposed to low- to moderate income units, but is opposed to the rental aspect of the project.

Both applications were granted a sixmonth adjournment by a unanimous vote at the April 1 Zoning Board meeting.

"Any revisions would need a study of economic feasibility and measurements of [the project's] COAH [N.J. Council on Affordable Housing] compliance," Gianetti explained to the board.

Zoning Board Chairman Harvey Brenner asked Gianetti how long the revision process would take.

"Two to three months is reasonable because if there is redesign needed, more engineering work will be needed, and my client might possibly add more marketrate units in Cliffwood," Gianetti estimated.

Brenner said he didn't like indeterminate, open-ended applications and suggested a period of six months with a deadline of Oct. 1 during which time the applicant may resume the application. After the deadline, the applicant would start over from scratch, without prejudice, explained Zoning Board Attorney Marc Leckstein, of Leckstein and Leckstein, Little Silver.

"If renoticing is needed," Brenner explained, "the original people noticed will be renoticed."

Resident Marcia Jones said that she opposes the complex in the Cliffwood section of town because of her home's proximity to the proposed project.

"I am opposed to it because my house is almost behind the proposed building, and I don't want a low-income rental project possibly running down our neighborhood," she said. "We don't want school crowding, and if it is for rent only, a transient crowd might bring crime. I don't think [the applicant] should be able to adjourn and come back."

Resident Mitch Reynolds said that if the proposed plans were revised to include market-rate units instead of only rental units, he would be satisfied.

"I live on County Road near the project, and I am opposed to it the way it is now. If there is a transient population there, there is no interest in getting involved with the community," he said. "Outside of that, I feel like the town's infrastructure is inappropriate for a project like this. You are going to put about 130 more families on a road that is basically a raceway, has no sidewalks and floods? Come on."

According to Leckstein, the hearings on the applications didn't get far enough to discuss the site plans.

"It is a bifurcated application, so it is only about the use, not about the site plan at this point," he said.

McLeod said she was satisfied with the end result of the meeting.

"I am satisfied that at least they are considering what the community wants, and our input actually means something to the developer, because he is going back to revise the plans," she said after the meeting. "We don't want overcrowding, we don't want crime, and we don't want our taxes to rise. We want to keep it affordable, and we are hoping that we can all work on something that won't take away from our community, but add to it."

Aberdeener,
Who is the Matawan Athletic Parents Fund Raising Committee and why isn't the money raised from a school sponsored track meet going into the general fund to offset all athletic costs and the cost of this event.

matawan advocate said...

Aberdeener, Really enjoyed your post.

NJS Extraordinary Aid Package will not consider the application unless the Borough defers the Pension Plan. Thank you Gov. Corzine. (sic)

Gregory Cannon is running for Town Council in Aberdeen. Shame on Aberdeen if they allow "history to repeat itself" in their township. It costs Matawan taxpayer dollars for the financial fiasco caused by Mr. Cannon's father. It also costs the Democratic party (financed by Vic Scudiery.) You are either a qualified resident or you are not! It is time that we stop allowing politicians to burden taxpayers with financial debt for their gain. Perhaps Aberdeen has deeper pockets than Matawan and the Democrats in Aberdeen have more of Scudiery's money.

Contrary to what he has been telling residents (that he wasn't going to run for re-election), Councilman Michael Cannon is running again. Is it possible that he is holding the seat for someone else, like Robert Bunyon did for him? You be the judge.

If you have watched Matawan's elections the last few years, All of Scudiery's money and all of Scudiery's men could NOT buy Matawan again!

We'd like to see the people who have the best interests of their respective towns (political agendas aside) run and win. How refreshing that would be.

Joey, you are a fine example in Aberdeen. Again good luck in the School Board Election.

I have a bigger problem it has come to the attention of some parents in the Cliffwood Section of Aberdeen that Matawan police are stopping young man and searching their car and then letting them go. My son who is white was in the car on a friday night coming from the movies dropping off a friend and was asked could the officers search the car. He was scared and allowing them to. My husband contacted an attorney and we will be filing a complaint against the department. No ticket was issued.
I am like many others parents i talked to are afraid that our son's will become more of a target. These young men are good kids and are all going off to college in the fall. key word no ticket was issued.

Hey lady, what part of the story is your kid not telling you about, and why was it so important that you mentioned that he is white?

MAKEYOURMOVE said...

First off Aberdeen does not have officials that are running the town. NORMAN KAUFF RUNS ABERDEEN!

Right off the bat and just to clarify, former Councilwoman Gallo has a daughter who married a young man who is a police officer in Aberdeen. Some have said it may have been a prerequisite deal to her giving in and joining a Kauff and running on his ticket, which won. Her escape from Kauff was forced in part by the fact that she voiced her opinions and was looking into the town finances mainly the same professional contracts and graft back to Kauff that is choking Aberdeen.

Gallo similarly to Freddy and Jimmy also came with built-in support. As a former member of the school board and having been known around town that gave Gallo a foot in the door opportunity for the old crow Norman Kauff to maintain control. He used her like so many others and when she started to inquire about the Kauff crime syndicate CME she was forced out. It is that simple. One day soon Norman is going to mess with the wrong person, a person who knows almost all that Norman knows. Then just as I will hear them say from my seat at Shea on opening day this week in Queens "PLAY BALL" will be heard all around Aberdeen. People know Norman and it will only take one to spoil your sweet deal. That is what they all fear every other Tuesday night at council meetings, that someone will come in and ask the right questions. They all know the answers as to their crimes as they sit behind that table. It is only a matter of time.

As for your statement anonymous that you wish you could trade tax bills with Aberdeen residents you would really do well with that if you could take away all of tax money that goes annually to Kauff and his, what seems like, forty thieves. There are so many hands in the taxpayers pockets in Aberdeen because of the Kauff giveaways. Considerable if not huge savings could be garnered if Kauff and his band of miscreants would pack up and go. The sad thing is most people who live in Aberdeen have no idea that the Kauff cancer that is eating away at their finances and quality of life all due to an individual that is nothing more that an unelected political low-life who was never elected to the position he has placed himself in, and who is only allowed to be there by those beholding to him and suckling from his breast like a swine feeding her young.

As for how Aberdeen will muddle through this economic downturn, the answer is simple. It will not be at the expense of any of the millions in professional payments or contracts, $3M dollar road program that is used to make people think the town leadership is doing something for them, furloughs of the people who actually do the work in the town may happen and all this as the council people will install every Kauff trick to limit any tax increase during the Kauff control election year. Election 2009 is all about Kauff keeping his password to the Aberdeen taxpayer ATM. By the word Kauff's password is GREEDYMOTHER......!

As for your Matawan leadership they are at the helm of a ship going around in circles and the circle is getting smaller and smaller. Soon the circle will run out of room and Matawan will be swallowed up. It should have been taken over for financial impropriety and mismanagement years ago. The two towns force out managers who would not do as they were told. All we have left are political hacks. Welcome to New Jersey. Anyone know a good moving company?

Ummm buddy. Hate to break this to you, but if you are hoping to have a seat at Shea stadium this week, you are in for a rude surprise. Shea Stadium is now a parking lot.

Normally I would assume you just mispoke as part of your ramblings. But since you always speak the TRUTH, and you seem to know everything, I have no choice but to believe you actually do have tickets to Shea Stadium.

I imagine someone was able to get you to buy tickets to Shea. Believe it or not, I feel sorry for you. It also makes me suspect that you are very gullible. Apparently you believe anything anyone tells you regardless of available proof.

This would explain why your message contains a lot of conspiracy allegations but lacks anything resembling evidence.

Have fun at Shea buddy! While I'm enjoying myself across the way at Citi Field, I'll be thinking of you.

Oh, by the way, I am trying to sell my season ticket package for the Dodgers over at Ebbets Field. I'm willing to part with them for $ 2,000. Seats are right behind home plate, so its a bargain. Are you interested?

Anonymous said...

MAKEYOURMOVE did make a serious allegation against the police officer. He has clearly alleged the only reason the officer received his job on the force was due to a deal reached between Gallo and Kauff.

That's a pretty serious allegation.

I doubt its true however. Much like everything MAKEYOURMOVE or the TRUTH (or whatever else he is calling himself today) says, its all based upon conspiracy theories that can never be proven.

I still love the one that Kauff shot JFK. As far as I know, that has never been disproven or denied. According to the blowhards on here, unless something is denied, it must be true. OSWALD WAS FRAMED!

TheMadPostersofAT said...

If any of you doubt that Norman kauff Esq. does not hold the reigns of Aberdeen and uses the town as his personal checkbook, then you can start looking at the following.

1. Who makes all of the decisions on who gets put on the zoning or planning board? These two agencies control all development, planning and variances granted in town. 2. How many school kids tax the system is also a cost controlled by these boards? 3.Kauff appoints and controls these boards and as he deems it certain members either show or fail to show at his decree, vote yes or no as Norman needs them to or simply lets it be tabled until the public loses interest. You see if Norman does not want something to move forward or be heard in front of the public he simply calls and their is not enough votes thus no approval is gotten or more money is needed to grease Normans wheels. The exception to the Norman rule was the latest County road deal that to many people came out against. Norm did not expect that and since it is an important election year he knew he would an awful lot of votes on that one. 4. Who appoints and controls the town legal counsel? 5. Who appoints and controls the town engineers and all of the millions of dollars filtered through them? 6. Who controls the professional contracts for town planners and those who are supposed to give legal guidance and opinion to the zoning and planning boards? 7. Who is present at most every developmental meeting held with developers seeking to build in Aberdeen?

The answer to these seven questions is KAUFF. It certainly is not a lucky seven for the taxpayers.

The same goes for the council most of the time. Jobs and much more are given to council people and that buys Norman's allegiance and as the old saying goes *you get what you pay for*. Deaf, dumb and blind allegaince. Look at the voting records. How did they vote on anything for CM&E, pension deferrals will soon come up. How will they vote on all of that tax money being sacrificed in the name of the all important election? Minimize the tax increase is all that matters. Sobel, Raymond, Perri will be gone and now Fred T. is set up to be the next Sobel type stooge for Kauff. If I am lieing I am dying.

All that is said repeatedly on here is true. You may think what is alleged about is fantasy but ask yourself one question. Has Kauff ever denied anything?

NOTHING POSTED ON HERE HAS NEVER BEEN DENIED BY KAUFF OR ANY OF HIS BOUGHT AND PAID FOR THIEVES UNDER THEIR NAMES.

Your dismissed anonymous, from reality.

Anonymous said...

Like I said, Kauff has never denied killing JFK either. So obviously he must have been the lone gunman.

Are there problems in Aberdeen? Of course. There are problems in every municipality. You just need to get over this Kauff fixation.

Then again, your constant ramblings are very assuming and supply us here in Aberdeen with hours upon hours of entertainment. You have no idea how many people laugh at your messages each day.

You've been screaming that the feds are coming for years now. Yet they never show up. Go figure?

Perhaps because no one has done anything wrong? Oh of course that isn't the case... Oh I know, Kauff secretly controls the Federal government. Yeah, that must be it. Boy, this Kauff guy is superhuman. Glad you know the TRUTH! Thanks for sharing it with us. We are all better off now.

I'm placing a call to Art Bell as soon as I get done here. He will be happy to know that some anonymous writer on the Aberdeener blog has uncovered the source of all the misdeeds in the world and the answer is Kauff. All he needs to do is see to Kauff's arrest and there will be instant peace on earth.

If you are lieing you must be dying? Want me to call an ambulance for you? Looks to me like you only have a few minutes left.

DISMISSED!

Anonymous do not look now but you need to turn around as your ignorance is showing once again. It is always showing when it comes to the kauff defenders. If kauff has done nothing wrong why has he not said so. His continual denials is all I and many others need. Little by little the word on kauff is getting out to the people. Unfortunately our local republicans are missing a huge opportunity to go down fighting this year by exposing who controls the town. That is all I need to say about that. Count on a little independent grass roots effort to let people know about kauff before election day. Keep defending the undefendable. Guilty and corrupt low lifes like kauff need to be exposed and if it takes a little while for an investigation to happen so what. How long did it take to get the twenty or so in Freehold? It was worth the wait. I for one will wait and let as many people as i can know about kauff.

Aberdeen could then in turn be saved from kauff. Say AMEN.

You forgot to add that Kauff also caused global warming, told Charles Manson to kill, sold Vinci his first container of hair dye, kidnapped the Lindberg baby, and killed Mr. Hooper from Sesame Street.

Anytime anyone talks about working with our current elected officals on the task they have at hand the budget. This state and country is a mess and I am sick and tired about hearing comments about Norman K. I was late attending the council meeting on Tuesday there were five people in the audience all the talk you guys do on this website but cannot face your elected officials and asked questions. Bunch of cowards. Maybe the Dems have something in store for all of you.......

StemlerDrckgin said...

The only thing the dems could have in store for the residents and taxpayers that would make many of us happy would be that

Mayor Sobel would wake up and tell the truth that Norman Kauff is not his friend but his puppetmasater. *If he counts Norman Kauff as his friend he is not the man many think he was. The Mayor may as well have said that Jeffrey Dahmer was just a misunderstood cannibal then to call Kauff his friend. Sorry his close personal friend.

Joe Raymond would tell everyone the truth that Norman Kauff did get him his job at the DMV.

Owin Drapkin would disclose how much work he has gotten from democratically connected campaigns or businesses since being elected.

The council would really tell us why Kauff pushed Brown and Gallo out the door and why they allowed it to happen.

Mayor Sobel would really tell us why they hired this new manager. He could also tell us if he really was the best qualified candidate out of the search firm results since he gushed about him like he did repeatedly in the newspapers.

The council would tell us why they could not just hire a town engineer or two at a much cheaper rate then merely giving $1.8 M to CM&E each year.

The council would tell us who screwed up the parking overflow lot on Gerard Avenue and what that CM&E screwup cost the taxpayers.

Whilemina would come clean as to all of her real-estate deals and the obvious conflict of interests she was under while she sat on a board that approved and controlled such development.

Vinny Vinci in truth we do not have that much time to address all of his wrong doings. Maybe just the latest examples of the Vinci selfishness of the land grab and his $850,000.00 intersection.

Tom Perry could tell us all what really goes on in executive sessions.

Then there would be the questions for all of the council members about Kauff and the parking lot shakedown. You can be sure they know all about that one or maybe more over the years.

Just a few of the above being answered truthfully would be a nice start to bringing at least a spec of honesty to the leadership of Aberdeen.

SSSSSNNNNNNOOOOOZZZZZZEEEEE

Sorry I was dreaming.

The nightmare that is the Kauff controlled town of Aberdeen unfortunately continues.

Stemler i applaud you surprise at the end that you were in fact merely sleeping. I agree that the norman nightmare continues. A vocal few who defend him here and soon in the future will not be able to stem the tide away from the candidates when they go door to door seeking votes.

BatterUpDad said...

Stemler you left out F.T. why? The question many of us would want to ask him are a simple few. Why Fred would you hook up with the likes of a Norman Kauff? You must have heard the rumors and the stories all of these years. People must have told you of the experiences they have had trying to do business in town. You know pay to play is a joke and only hurts the taxpaying public. You know development in Aberdeen never happens and all monies in for proposals and studies goes to C.M.E. and others handpicked by Norman Kauff that never gets a block put into a foundation. Is this too many questions for my favorite ump to answer now that he is with a man who costs us all so much for his selfish purposes. Why Fred Why?

HeHasRisen said...

Mr. Kauff,

Today is a holy day and as I will now leave for church services there is something I want you to know. This morning is a special day in my church. I want you to know Mr. Kauff that at least one person will pray for you today.

I will pray that you are not the man many say you are. I will pray that if you are such a man that you seek absolution for your sins and that you seek to only do good for people from now on.

God will judge us all Mr Kauff.

A nice gesture and at least one person is seeking the help of the almighty on our behalf. Pray hard.

"Why Fred would you hook up with the likes of a Norman Kauff?"

Why indeed? Fred was a registered Republican who, during a party split back in the mid 90's, chose to align himself with the local democratic organization. When the split became a thing of the past, Fred continued to hang with the Dems. He has endorsed the straight Democratic ticket in every election cycle for at least a decade.

I have no idea about the machinations of Aberdeen politics. I do know that our town has excellent roads! I need to ride in and out of many municipalities north of here every day, and my car breathes a sigh of relief when it hits Aberdeen asphalt. No pot holes, no cracks or bumps, smooth satin ribbons of roadway. And I for one, and my car for two, appreciate it!

trymyasectionpavement said...

I am glad that your street is a relief for you. Try driving on my streets in the A section. Many streets are in deplorable condition but the fact that our leaderships only real accomplishment is a money funneling road program is a shame. I hear it is 25% of the total dollars spent on the road program that goes to overpriced and under worked so called professionals who are handpicked by the democratic boss.

That just sounds like a good payday for political hangers on to me. So if they spend three million dollars on roads the professionals get seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars. What the hell could they possibly do to need such a percentage. Unless as is talked about here the local democratic party boss gets a windfall every year from said road program.

Kauff also shot JR, killed Christ,got Jimmy Carter elected, caused the great depression and the current recession, buried Jimmy Hoffa in the Cliffwood Beach pool, and is currently in negotiation with the Bloods and Crips to open recruiting stations in town. You people are funny LOL

Sherlock Holmes said...

After reading the last few messgaes I decided to call Kauff and ask him about these allegations. His wife told me he was on vacation in Dallas.

I then decided to call Mayor Sobel. I told him about the allegations on here and asked him whether he would deny that Kauff had shot JFK and then later shot JR. I told him about my conversation with Kauff's wife and that I knew Kauff had a history with traveling to Texas and specially Dallas.

The Mayor refused to acknowledge my question. To me this is absolute proof that Kauff is guilty. As it hasn't been denied, it must be true.

I must praise the Aberdeener for bringing to light the truth behind the JFK and JR killings. What would we do without this blog?

Mr. Warren you used this blog as a platform to get on the BOE. Your ideas for our school system are good ones, but if you and the BOE do not work together nothing will change. I feel the same way about our local leadership. Were are the residents with good idea's who want change for a better Aberdeen. Without destroying our leadership who have family members and friends who hear some of things that are said on this blog. How can you fight a blogger? Please can someone answer me that?. People have no idea fact or fiction just space talking. This blog should be called something else because it does not represent the hard working people of this town it is all one sided. It is ok to destory someone on a blog but can you stand up and say the things you write about. Next council meeting i will be there front and center it is so easy to be a coward.

PinehurstDon said...

Their are legal terms for what Kauff does in Aberdeen. To some it is called greed, unethical behavior, immoral behavior, bribe taking, pay to play or just numerous criminal acts against the citizenry.

When one man can control all the monies, approvals, development, numbers of children in a school district and far more with no accountability we have a right to bring forth his actions for discussion that negatively effect all of us.

Then we have those who were actually elected to act on behalf of the taxpayers who in turn refuse to act independently from their puppetmaster. That is a crime, unethical or immoral.

You people with your Sherlock Holmes and anonymous musings blaming Kauff for stupid things like an assassinations fail to address even once any of the above factual statistics, approvals, monies spent annually or the Kauff mandated and corrupt control of elected officials who don't sneeze without asking Kauff for approval to do so first.

Tell all of us who obviously don't know anything just one thing Kauff has done in the past 15 years that has benefited Aberdeen. Just one thing that did not make money for his friends and himself in the process. We are waiting. Take your time you have until election day.

weknowkauffdoyou??? said...

Kauff 24/7/365 is fine with us.

The idiots who defend him cannot answer Don's questions. It is very simple since all Kauff has been able to do is talk about proposed development and get studies upon studies paid for with tax money. And mysteriously the same such development with all of these studies never get built. Don't even count that monstrosity by the parkway. That should have never been built in the first place. That was another mysterious Kauff controlled development that was initially criticized by our own town planners and engineers but then all of a sudden mysteriously all of the problems and professional criticisms went away. Another Kauff mystery? The questionable ownership and near bankruptcy of the same property owner somehow was also mysteriously funded, which then allowed a nearly bankrupt property owner to hang on. Then of course the owner was mysteriously helped through the process by Kauff and Coren. Such humanitarians they are? The politically connected property owner was also probably shook down for legal fees and political contributions, which were of course ordered to be paid from same developer by you guessed it Norman Kauff. With Kauff and all of these developmental deals it is called working both sides of the fence. Coren was the smart one though since he cashed in and ran out of town fearing the county or Chris christy may have been looking at him. Even Gov. McGreevey criticized the buildings near the parkway according to our nephew.

If you ever go to those buildings try getting some clearance for fire fighting equipment around most of those buildings. Can't be done. But the same developer did buy three vehicles for the fire departments. Or was that one of the departments only? Another Kauff and Coren mystery no one wants to talk about. Right Norm?

But once again we don't know anything. The Kauff defenders will say on our latest suggestion about more wrong doing leading to Kauff, that we do not know what we are talking about. Does anyone know what really goes on with Kauff? Is he just a nice old man on a pension? We think he is the equivalent to our Judas. He betrays those whom he is supposed to be his neighbors and friends. Thanks for nothing Judas. We mean Norm.

Anonymous said...

Only one of the fire companies got all the vehicles because Vinny had to give one to his "retired" buddy, and the other ones look so nice parked on Lloyd Rd. They wouldnt be as visible sitting on Angel St.
Oh wait, I'm sorry, I forgot what site I was posting on. I meant to say that Kauff, immediately after causing the levees to break in New Orleans flew back on his magic carpet and stole them so he could sell them on the black market.

"Lloyd is nice, but I don't see many others in good shape."

Lloyd Rd. is a county road. So are Cliffwood Ave, Amboy Ave and Lower Main St. Aberdeen's leadership has nothing to do with these roads.
County Rd is not a county road. Got that? It's a township road, which is why Madame Gumbs was able to get into her mischief.

CTYRDISSTILLNOTHAPPY said...

Mischief. You call that mischief. We call it a crime and a crime against all of her neighbors who did not have such a cozy and now beholding relationship to Kauff. Politicians sell themselves so cheaply. Ms. Gumbs and those who are left of her outspoken group will have to work hard this election year. The recently defeated Kauff development proposed for our back yards also showed the trickery and worse of our local political boss. We residents showed Kauff a thing or two this time around. We don't want Kauff, his candidates or projects in our area. It is not over and we are watching you and yours Mr. Kauff.

Ok I will try and make this as easy for those among us so that they will understand this one more time. Read it slow so it sinks in.

Governor McGreevey called Mark Corren the Manager of Aberdeen and commented about the big ugly buildings being built so close to the parkway.

It happened despite your scoffing.

I am once again amazed at the Kauff defenders. Likewise the people who continually fail to believe the many things that we do really know to be (100%) true about Kauff and his continual fleecing and his total control of everything and anything that goes on in and around Aberdeen.

Keep denying or defending. One day you will wake up face the reality of Kauff and his crimes.

I checked with someone that did work at town hall and Mark Coren did get such a call. I agree the buildings are too close to the parkway and are in fact very ugly. A friend of my older son lives there and has said there are some problems with most every apartment. They look nice he said but looks can be deceiving. I wonder how many school age children come out of there? That same question should have been posed for the projects They are trying to build in Cliffwood.

Keep on denying the obvious.

Ask yourself if politicians in our state or the masters they are beholding to continually fail to work on behalf of those who elected them. Don't they all just merely work for themselves feathering their own nests? If you answer no then you deserve to defend them and keep believing the lies they tell you or pay you to be a part of.

The rest of us know what scum most of them are. By the way how is that you and your kind still not answer any of the allegations we have posted about Kauff and his professionals? Why is that? Is it because all we bring forth is THE TRUTH?

Deny all you want and just continue to look befuddled in the process. Not discussing or countering the suggestions that Kauff really and truly runs Aberdeen has yet to be discussed or denied by you, his defenders, his counsel or himself. Why? You know it is THE TRUTH. That is why.

We are waiting for your next denial. Tick tock, tick tock.

Train time have to go. I will check on your latest Kauff denial from work. Tick tock, tick tock.

truthaboutnorman, just because someone doesn't come on this blog and deny any wrongdoings doesn't mean they are guilty. I think you and the others have to realize that, the one anon who said he accused them of killing Kennedy was great and hit the nail on the head. I don't think Aberdeen is perfect by any means, but I do know what is going on. I show up to town council meetings, BOE meetings, speak to others in town and participate in my kid's school and sports. I don't just read this blog and believe everything that is posted, I know Joey Warren and respect what he does for the town and this blog is a great source of information. I also am an adult who knows if I say something on a blog and if they don't respond I don't think they are guilty. If someone resorts to name calling I choose to be the bigger person and ignore them, not respond to such rantings from an anon poster. What will that accomplish? If I deny it you call me a liar, if I don't respond you say I am guilty. Sounds like no matter what is done they are wrong.

I don't think this town is perfect and have complained about many a thing at meetings, but not everything you posters say on here is true. I look forward to the changes on the BOE and hope this budget passes. I hope change happens with the town council and we can move forward. I would hope people go out and try to make a difference, vote, go to the meetings and get involved. This blog is great but the people need to get up and do something, I think there were 5 or 6 people at the last meeting, what does that say? Don't give up, get out and make a difference.

As far as the town council meetings, what would an average aberdeen citizen get out of going to one? When I look at the agendas, I don't see anything of interest or anything that i'd like to comment on.

When are they going to start discussing the transit village? That's a topic that I'd be interested in and something I'd love to get involved with and contribute if needed. When the topics on the agenda include mosquito spraying and liquor license ordinances, I might as well stay home. Not sure they need my help or anyone elses help with these rivoting topics they cover each week.

PEOPLE WAKE UP! KAUFF MUST GO!

It is not the kauff controlled council meetings we need to worry about. These monthly meetings where they are so comfortable they violate all local, state and sunshine laws by not even going into the full court room for the public proceedings.

What we all need to really worry about is the meetings in dimly lit parking lots, restaurants, executive sessions out of public view, kauff and CM&E offices and other assorted places that they slink into in the dark without any recordings or official notes taken for public review or rebuke. Those are the meetings where kauff wields the too-costly power we taxpayers have to worry about. Do you really think kauff and company are going to pull off their dastardly deeds in full public view.

Look at it this way CM&E is only about seven miles away and they have nice offices from all of our tax money that kauff gives them. You can bet meetings at CM&E have gone on for years under the disguise of supposed *democratic club meetings*. Numerous meetings have been held in such locations all of which violate the sunshine laws of our state. None of them care though as they are under the vic scudieri *protection umbrella*. I mean after all this is scudeiri county and we have the best political representation that money, developers, contractors, engineers, planners and many more can buy.

Best of all everyone of our elected officials is officially warned each and every year to not to attend such meetings under the *public official ethics guidelines* that they have to read and sign for. But even after all the warnings and more we can all be sure that when kauff calls a meeting they all come running like the rat bastards they are. We can also be sure that anything close to *ethical behavior* and the *public trust* goes out the window. Let even one of them deny such meetings have gone on as I suggest herein.

Cheese-eaters all of them as my kindergartner would say. But it is our cheese *tax money* they are eating. Let even one of them deny this under their name. It will not happen you can all be sure.

frmrshorecasinodem said...

I can hear all of the anonymous Kauff supporting assignments being given out now. It is all about casting doubt on those who know
THE TRUTH and bring it out into the public domain. It is sites like the Aberdeener that Kauff cannot control that irritates him to no end. So the easiest thing for Kauff to do is to blame the accusers. They do not know what they are talking about we are told. BUT NO DENIALS FROM KAUFF, SOBEL,VINCI, DRAPCIN or any of the others have ever been posted. The anonymous postings are supposed to be all the proof they need to provide. It will not be enough. A clean slate of candidates will not be enough. Norman, C.M.E., Vinci, the moneys funneled away, and more all front and center will be a lot to explain away. Norm you can stop it all be just leaving the party and the taxpayer monies alone. Pack your caravan of greed and corruption Normy and leave Aberdeen.

Anonymous said...

If you go to the town council meetings you may bring up any topic you wish. If you would like to know more about the transit village just come to the next meeting. When they ask if the public if they would like to speak on any topic do so, people ask about road repairs, trees in their yard, CME, speed limits on streets, installing road bumps, etc. It may be interesting to listen to what they are going to do about spraying for mosquitos, who is doing it, how much it cost us,any dangers to the township, etc. Just a thought, a lot more goes on at these meetings and every once in a while someone stands up and asks a tough question.

I agree with the above. That which passes for our supposed leadership is controlled, corrupt and would not make even the simplest decision without Kauff approval. It is true and all to typical of politicians in New Jersey. Let them deny it if it is not true. Step up to the plate and swing away. Batter up Vinny you are the lead off batter for team Kauff.

Council meetings and the truth? What a concept. If you go to council meetings do not plan on seeing where all of your money goes. Those decisions come out of Justice Lane. Then the instructive phone calls to the council people are made. They are all told how to vote. And you know all the rest by now. CME and everybody else takes their share, they all cut checks to Normy and the Democratic Party, campaign gets funded, Republicans stay home and the taxpayers get screwed. Just another four years of Kauff control in Aberdeen. Some things never change. Too bad.

Sherlock Holmes said...

Update on my JFK and JR shooting investigation:

I called CME the other day and tried to speak with Dave Samuels. His secretary refused to acknowledge he steals money from Aberdeen. She just hung up the phone on me. Amazing! As often stated on here, since it wasn't denied it must be true.

I then flew to Dallas in hot pursuit of the elusive Kauff. I tracked him down to a hotel gathering right near the grassy knoll in Dealey Plaza. I was told there was some sort of a reunion going on in one of the conference rooms so I snuck in and saw an unbelievable sight.

Taking place was a meeting between Kauff, Dave Samuels, Kristen Shepard, Sue Ellen Ewing, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, Fidel Castro and Professor James Moriarty.

I couldn't believe my sight. I sat back in the corner of the room, in the shadows, and learned that not only was Kauff responsible for numerous parking lot shakedowns and the shootings of JFK and JR, but also the Case of the Red Headed League, the savage attack upon FBI Special Agent Will Graham and the assassination of Che Guevara.

I would have learned more but Big Foot and a couple Ewoks walked into the room at that moment and I was nervous about being discovered so I had to flee.

Let them deny it if anything I've written is untrue!

In the meantime, I will continue my investigation and will report back as time permits.

Keep up the good work you Aberdeenerites. Without this blog to inform us, we would be completely lost.

Speaking of facts how aboiut this one. Vic Scudier *the big cheese of Monmouth County politics* just so happens to own the DMV building you talk about. Now Vic Scudier gets paid rent by the State of New Jersey is all just coincidental. Politically coincidental of course.

Speaking of coincidences:
1. It is just the same as the Kauff coincidence that he is on both sides of most every developer agreement reached in Aberdeen.
2. CME gets thousands and thousands of dollars every year from the Kauff controlled legal counsel of Aberdeen and that is also just legally coincidental.
3. Kauff runs Aberdeen and is unelected and just coincidental.
4. Kauff gives millions in tax dollars to CME every year and that is also just a coincidence.
5. Kauff gets large political donations and fees from CME and it is also just a coincidence
6. Corren and Kauff took vast amounts of money and illegal gifts while they were in charge of Aberdeen and that all also just a coincidence.
7. Corren and Kauff coincidentally controlled all the approvals and required changes to facilitate the building of the exact same town houses they owned units in.
8. Kauff and other politically connected people own property in areas yet to be developed or sewered in Aberdeen but that's a coincidence.

Coincidentally it goes on and on.

So much for our proofs. Right?

So keep defending this scumbag and his corrupt cohorts. The only people laughing at you are all of us who await just even one denial. How is it we should show ourselves to them when they cannot even once come out and prove us wrong. Council meetings are a joke in this town just like its leadership.

I have said it before and I will say it again. One of these days they are going to mess with or fire someone who knows where all the bodies are buried. Then the proofs will come raining down like fire from the sky. One of our neighbors was recently let go from working for the town. We hoped it would have been him to blow the whistle but we hear he got paid off. We call it getting Kauffed around here. Just like when he Kauffed us over our sewers.

The proof is in the lack of denials. They know what they have done and what they continue to do under the kauff control. Let them deny that kauff does not pull the strings of the puppet leadership in our Aberdeen. None of them can deny it. They know THE TRUTH.

Why doubt what we have to say? Those we know are corrupt sit silently in their kauff controlled greed. All of you who defend him blindly or not so blindly do a greater disservice to the taxpayers then we do. At least we shine the light of THE TRUTH on kauff and his corruption. If he is not corrupt why then does he sit in on all negotiations? Why then does he select who sits on the boards and the council. He is the lowest form of scum and on my life his day is coming very soon.

The state and federal investigators are real and they have been told by more than a few people what is going on in Aberdeen. I for one have his number in my phone. It does take time and we will wait. It is very costly to keep kauff in power but when they swoop in, all of you will be S I L E N T.

Confucious 2009 said...

Manson, Hitler, Dahmer, Booth, Pol Pot, Ferdinand Marcos, Mussolini, Kruschev, Idi Amin and many others never denied their crimes. Kauff as far as I know was not a cannibal like Idi Amin or Dahmer. Kauff like the others perpetuates his rule on the backs of the people. Any present or future council person who allows it to happen is no less guilty. Think about it before you deny their guilt or stand up and defend this unelected plague on our community.

Some will scoff at the above examples I will not. Think about this one question. If a senior citizen on a fixed income like me has to sell a home because they cannot afford the taxes in Aberdeen who is really to blame? Who can be held accountable to answer for people like me. My neighbors always say the school board is a big part of the problem for the high taxes. I say we have to educate all of the children to ensure our future generations. I do concede that we do not and should not have to feed the politically connected. The examples all over of the wasted amounts of money feeding the blob in the name of the ruling party must stop. If we are paying our local council to just rubber stamp his decisions like they say do we really need to pay a council then? To do what?

Anonymous said...

forcedtosellonwarren, so you believe everything you read and hear? Some anon posters are saying Aberdeen is bad and you believe them? They are the ones who make the allegations; don't they have to prove it? If someone on a blog that you don't read says you are an idiot and you don't respond does that make you one?

Aberdeen is not perfect and some things need to be changed, but all is not bad or wrong. To answer your question of who is at fault, it is you. Have you done anything? Have you called the authorities? Written any letters, complained to the press, said anything at a town council meeting, emailed anyone? I think not, do something. I am sorry you have to leave this town and wish you luck wherever you may end up.

Sherlock Holmes said...

You should believe everything TRUTH says. Since his mother named him the TRUTH, he can't do anything but speak honesty. That's the TRUTH.

I can confirm the statements made in his message about the federal investigators being on the trail of Kauff. They are very much ready to pounce.

As I write this message I am sitting in my hotel room in Dallas. The events of the past few days have been quite revealing.

After nearly escaping capture by Big Foot and the Ewoks, I had called upon an old friend who happens to be a private investigator. His name is Matt Houston and I met with him and his lovely assistant CJ over lunch yesterday. I told them about the Kauff conspiracy and they promised to trail him for the rest of the day.

I returned to my hotel home at approximately 5 pm. As soon as I entered my room I felt a hit from behind and everything went black.

I awoke a few hours later in a strange room. There was a man sitting in front of me who I instantly recognized as J. Edgar Hoover, the former director of the FBI.

Mr. Hoover revealed to me that he had faked his death back in 1972 so that he could dedicate the rest of his life to uncovering the Kauff conspiracy. He said the FBI has evidence on Kauff being involved in almost every notorious incident in American History since about the year 1774.

Mr. Hoover acknowledged that the FBI has not yet been able to explain how Kauff could have possibly been involved in events that happened over 230 years ago but all of the historical data showed that he had been.

He told me of an incident recorded in the minutes of the 2nd Continental Congress where John Dickinson, a delegate from the state of Pennsylvania, had apparently been bribed in the parking lot of Independence Hall to not vote for independence. He had accepted the bribe and as a result was later made President of Delaware and also President of Pennsylvania. Can you imagine, voting against Independence, yet still being chosen as the President of two States which had benefited from that Independence?

This has the mark of Kauff all over it.

There were several other incidents Hoover told me about. For instance he recounted President Nixon's refusal to give into a shakedown in the parking lot of the White House in early 1972. We all know what happened there.

Anyway, according to Hoover, after the assassination of JFK in 1963, he had become obsessed with uncovering the true identity of Kennedy's killer. He had remained at the head of the FBI until 1972 when he realized the trail was running cold. He went undercover and has been searching for more evidence on Kauff ever since.

Finally, he ran across this blog. He read about the parking lot shakedowns in Aberdeen and knew he had found Kauff again. Since then his agents have apparently been in conversations with bloggers such as The TRUTH who have helped them build their case any further.

Hoover considers the TRUTH the greatest patriot he has ever know since he has put his own name on the line by speaking up against Kauff.

I asked Hoover why he was telling me all of this. He said he was doing so because he was nervous my investigation into Kauff could possibly jeopardize his. I told him I was dedicated to fully uncovering this conspiracy. I couldn't morally stop now. He told me that this decision was unfortunate and the next thing I knew I experienced another black out.

This morning I awoke back in my hotel room to the sound of the phone ringing. My head hurt but I answered it nonetheless. It was Matt Houston. He told me that Kauff was on the move once again and that he had just bordered a plane at Dallas-Fort Worth headed to London, England.

Apparently Matt had been trying to reach me for a few hours now. His assistant CJ had followed Kauff on the plane but Matt had stayed behind to let me know.

As it was too late for me to make get a reasonable flight to London, Matt had arranged for his friend Santa Claus to meet me on the roof of the Hotel. Santa had a magic sleigh which would carry me to London. I noted that it was a pretty foggy morning here in Dallas, but Matt advised that Santa had Rudolph with him so as to guide us on our way.

I thanked Matt, quickly packed my bags, and then jumped on here to give everyone this update. I'm now on my way up to the roof to meet Santa.

As always, I'll keep everyone in the loop as time permits.

Keep up the great work everyone. I don't know what I would do without your moral support. The TRUTH shall prevail!

Be patient. At first Kauff's people thought that they could ignore the Aberdeener and the blog would go away; then they ridiculed it; then they started paying attention when the blog had an impact on school board issues which ended up in the resignation of elected officials; now they're trying to fill the blog with nonsense about grassy knolls and Santa Claus while ignoring the documented truths that have been shared.

The upcoming election is not about Kauff. We all know what he is. It is about those people running who have aligned their actions on the Planning Board with Kauff's priorities. They continue in their attempt to sell the future of this township to certain developers while making it too expensive for others to build projects which would positively add to our tax base.

How many more Cambridge Avenue projects do we need. It does nothing for our property values when we have 3 of 4 homes vacant for going on a third year. The same people running for mayor and council this year allowed that joke to happen. Enough is enough.

Anonymous said...

Here is the problem with your post. Absolutely none of your allegations have been "documented". They are all just rumor and innuendo. No documentation has ever been provided.

When you have some proof of anything you write about, come back and let us know. We'd love to see it.

Until that time, your allegations are no less fantastical than tales of grassy knolls and Santa Claus.

That's the real TRUTH.

Anonymous said...

The only allegation made in the post you refer to is that the Planning Board, a la Mr. Taglariani, Mr. Lauro, Ms. Montrose, approved the joke of a project on Cambridge Avenue. So, what hasn't been proven? That the project did deserve Planning Board approval? that not too many houses for too small a space were approved? That 4 house out of a planned 5 are still unsold after 3 years? The proof is before your eyes -- the Planning Board approved what they were told to approve.

Anonymous said...

I'll try this again because apparently you are a bit thick in the head:

Where is your proof that the Planning Board was told to approve this project?

Anonymous said...

Anonymous, your comments are not only funny but true. I have been enjoying the blog more and more as you have written your interesting and articulate followings of Kauff. I don't think our friends are understanding the insight that you are offering to them. It is a shame that they insist on inciting so much gossip, but nonetheless, it makes for interesting reading!! Keep it up... you make my day!

Maybe there is no proof that Planning Board Members were told what to do -- If that is the case, they just had poor judgment.

Do you also believe that OJ is innocent?

HELLO OUT THERE I WOULD LIKE AN ANASWER TO THE QUESTIONS FROM A PREVIOUS RESIDENT.

I HEARD HE PUT THIS TOWN IS SUCH A MESS THAT IS WHY HE WAS FIRED. OH BUT NO ONE TALKS ABOUT THAT. A FORMER COUNCILMAN WAS SEEN IN THAT SAME TWP MGR OFFICE EVERYDAY DURING THE LAST ELECTION. THE PROBLEM WITH THE TAXES IN ABERDEEN IS BECAUSE THE FORMER BOE CREATED A 64 MILLION DOLLAR BILL.BECUASE THEY COULD NOT GET ALONG. OH FORGOT BLAME NORMAN K FOR THAT AS WELL. I JUST PRAY THAT THE COUNCIL CAN SAVE JOBS IN ABERDEEN WITHOUT LAYOFFS AND WAGE FREEZE. THAT IS WHAT WE SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT. NOT THE BS, RESIDENTS THIS IS A VERY DIFFCULT TIME FOR NOT JUST ABERDEEN BUT THE ENTIRE COUNTRY.

Anonymous said...

To the Anonymous questioning the judgment of the Planning Board. Poor judgment is in the eye of the beholder.

Are you actually insinuating the Planning Board should be held responsible for a private developer's failure to sell homes he has built?

That would definitely be an interesting twist on the way things work.

Has it ever occurred to you that a developer's failure to sell property might be based on several factors: (1) the death of the housing market across the entire country, (2) the amount of money the developer is asking for the houses and (3) the style of the homes that were built.

What does any of that have to do with the Planning Board?

No, none of us believe OJ was innocent. However, if we were to listen to certain people on here, we would have to believe his accomplice in the killings was Kauff.

TRUTHABOUTKAUFF said...

NOTHING IS APPROVED, BUILT OR CONSIDERED IN ABERDEEN UNLESS KAUFF GETS HIS PIECE OF THE PIE.

KAUFF CONTROLS THE COUNCIL, PLANNING AND ZONING BOARDS AND THAT IS *THE TRUTH*. IF NOT WHY THEN DOES THE CHAIRMAN AND OTHERS SITTING ON THE BOARDS DENY IT? ALL OF THESE PEOPLE CALLED INTO QUESTION AS TO THEIR SUPPOSED INDEPENDENT VOTING AND INDEPENDENCE WITHOUT ANY AS WE SUGGEST KAUFF CONTROL. WHY THEN WILL NOT EVEN ONE OF THEM DEFEND THEMSELVES? WHY IS VERY SIMPLE AS THEY KNOW IT IS THE TRUTH. THAT IS WHY THEY SIT KAUFF-SILENT.

BUT SOON VERY SOON THE KAUFF CASE WILL BE HEARD AND THEN ALL OF THEM, ONCE THEY ARE SWORN AND UNDER OATH, WILL HAVE TO *TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH SO HELP ME GOD*. THAT WILL BE DONE WITH THEIR HANDS ON THE BIBLE. NORMAN YOU TOO. THEN WE WILL SEE WHO WILL DENY WHAT. IT IS COMING SO KEEP ENTERTAINING YOURSELVES SHERLOCK AND YOU OTHERS KAUFFKINS. WE LAUGH AT YOU.

SO PLAN AWAY NORMAN. BUT NORM DON'T MAKE ANY RETIREMENT PLANS UNLESS IT INCLUDES PINSTRIPES. AND IT WON'T BE YANKEE PINSTRIPES YOU WILL BE WEARING. THAT IS UNLESS CLUB FED HAS A BASEBALL TEAM. I HEAR YOU WILL MAKE A GOOD CATCHER. IN MORE WAYS THEN ONE NORMY.

THAT IS THE TRUTH WHETHER YOU THINK IT IS OR NOT. IT IS CALLED KAUFFPOLITICS ABERDEEN STYLE. THE ENGLISH TRANSLATION IS THAT *SCUMBAG #1 GETS HIS OR IT DON'T GET BUILT*.

SHERLOCK ANSWER THIS ONE QUESTION. HOW IS IT THAT THE PROPERTY ON 34 IS NOW GOING TO BE TOWNHOUSES NOW? WHEN CORREN WAS HERE I ASKED HIM AT A COUNCIL MEETING ABOUT THAT PROPERTY AND HE TOLD ME IT WAS ONLY FOR COMMERCIAL OFFICES OR BUSINESSES. NOW KAUFF WITH HIS PARTNER IN CRIME RETIRED IT SEEMS NORMAN KAUFF HAS CHANGED HIS MIND AND WANTS TO CASH IN. CASH IN THAT IS JUST IN TIME TO FUND HIS CORRUPT CAMPAIGN SEASON.

YET STILL HIS HENCHMEN AND LACKEYS CAST DOUBT ON ALL THE PROOFS WE PRESENT. ISN'T IT ODD THAT KAUFF WAS IN CHARGE WHEN THE APPROVALS WERE GIVEN FOR THE OTHER TOWNHOUSES THAT WERE BUILT ON HIGHWAY FRONTAGE PROPERTY THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN KEPT A COMMERCIAL TAX PAYER. THEN NOT SO COINCIDENTALLY KAUFF AND CORREN JUST SO HAPPEN TO END UP OWNING MULTIPLE UNITS IN THOSE EXACT SAME KAUFF/CORREN CONTROLLED AND APPROVED TOWNHOUSES.

SHERLOCK WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO SYNTEX HOLDINGS AND THEIR TOWNHOUSE PROPSAL FOR COUNTY ROAD. DIDN'T OUR PLANNER REVIEW THAT TOWNHOUSE PROJECT WITH LESS STRUCTURES TO BE BUILT THEN EVEN PROPOSED NOW. UNDER SYNTEX CONTROL AND FUNDING OUR PLANNER SAID IT WAS NOT CONDUCIVE TO THE AREA. NOW WITH THE KAUFF CONNECTED RMC GROUP PAYING THE KAUFF AND COMPANY BILLS THE EXACT SAME TOWN PLANNER WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN SIGN OFF ON EVEN MORE BUILDINGS ON THE SAME ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE PROPERTY. DOES RMC HAVE DEEPER POCKETS FOR KAUFF COSTS? DIDN'T THAT HAPPEN ON THE APARTMENTS OFF OF LOWER MAIN STREET ALSO. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE PLANNERS AND ENGINEERS CHANGED THEIR TUNE AND SURPRISE WHO WAS THERE FOR THAT ONE? NONE OTHER THEN NORMAN *MINE ALL MINE* KAUFF ONCE AGAIN AT THE HELM OF THE USS ABERDEEN. MAYBE THE RMC CHECKS TO THE KAUFF CRIME SYNDICATE FINALLY CLEARED AND IN ABERDEEN THAT MEANS ONLY ONE THING. BUILD AWAY.

BUT KAUFF DID NOT PLAN ON US COMING OUT AND BEING AGAINST HIS PROJECTS. HE WAS COUNTING ON MS. GUMBS HELP KEEPING US QUIET. THINK AGAIN NORMY. NO ANTENNAS AND NO PROJECTS MR. NORMAN UNLESS IT IS IN YOUR AREA. NOT IN OUR ABERDEEN, NOT THIS TIME OR ANY OTHER. DON'T EVEN THINK WE WILL LET YOU DO IT AFTER THE ELECTION EITHER. I FOR ONE CAN'T WAIT UNTIL YOUR LACKEYS COME LOOKING FOR VOTES. WHY NO CANDIDATES FROM OUR SIDE OF TOWN NORMY? THAT WILL BE QUESTION 1.

NOW LET US DISCUSS THE SO QUIET CHANGES TO THE MASTER PLAN THAT KAUFF AND CORREN PUT THROUGH JUST BEFORE CORREN LEFT. PROPERTIES IN ABERDEEN AND ALONG 34 SEEMED TO CHANGE PURPOSE ALL OF A SUDDEN. THAT WAS JUST BEFORE CORREN WENT RUNNING FEARING A SCANAPICIO TYPE KNOCK ON THE DOOR. THE W SECTION RESIDENTS CAME OUT AGAINST A STORAGE USE OF ONE PROPERTY ONE TIME. BUT THE SECRET KAUFF-CORREN MASTER PLAN CHANGES KEEPS THE W SECTION OUT OF IT THIS TIME. OR DOES IT NORMY? NOW NEW DEVELOPMENT IS PROPOSED AND THE MASTER PLAN CHANGES PUT THROUGH IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT BY KAUFF AND CORREN MAY CHANGE THE POSSIBLE TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION OR BUSINESSES THAT CAN LEGALLY GO THERE. I KNOW THIS IS ABERDEEN AND LEGAL DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING UNDER TEAM KAUFF. THIS QUIET CHANGE WAS DONE FOR THE EMPTY PROPERTY NEXT TO THE WORLD WIDE TILE STORE AND OTHERS. IS IT JUST ANOTHER KAUFF COINCIDENCE? OR WAS IT POLITICS UNUSUAL AGAIN IN ABERDEEN?

SO MANY KAUFF-COINCIDENCES.

ATTACK AWAY.

WHERE ARE THE OFFICIAL DENIALS?

I would like to bring this matter to everyones attention. I was just informed that Matawan township had removed the bleachers from PonyTail Park. Also they want to charge the league for porta johns.
I understand that times are hard. When is enough a enough? We pay our taxes, we pay for our childern to join these leagues. They all have their hands out, we are just not getting nothing in return. Please contact the town council and ask them to put the bleachers back and give the kids a porta john.

TRUTH - you are going to hurt yourself. Keep your blood pressure down. That's a good boy. Stay calm now. Take a breathe and I'll try and explain the world to you.

Now, this has been said time and time again on here, but I'll waste my time and say it once again. Not that it will get through that thick head of yours, but I've got nothing better to do for the moment, so might as well go ahead:

1) Your bare allegations are not PROOF.

2) The fact that none of the public servants you have chosen to besmearch have come onto this blog to defend themselves isn't PROOF.

3) If any of those public servants, or even Kauff himself, were to come here and say "I'm innocent of these baseless allegations" you would just call them liars.

Now, let me tell you one thing I do know to be true. Should you ever decide to have enough faith in your allegations to reveal your real name, I guarantee you would see the public servants defending themselves very quickly.

You see, I have to believe the reason you don't reveal yourself is because you know you are the true liar and you are very scared, like a little boy shaking in his boots, that if these officials were to discover your true identity they would all sue you for defamation of character.

See, if your allegations were really true, and you revealed your name, then no one could sue you. TRUTH is always a defense to a defamation claim.

However, since your so-called "TRUTH" is really nothing but LIES, you have no choice but to stay anonymous to protect your behind.

The truth hurts doesn't it? Go ahead and deny away. Just try and not burst a blood vessel in the process.

Believe it or not, you give all of us hours upon hours of amusement and if anything actually happened to you, you would surely be missed.

thatsafactjack said...

Nice try but I believe every word spoken about Kauff and his corrupt control. Keep defending the defenseless. Be proud of yourself. I would prefer to believe those who list item after item and all the denials come from the criminally anonymous. Yes we are anonymous so to is the factual guilt of all those who choose to deflect the blame they know is their own. Kauff be damned!

CTYRDAINTHAPPY said...

Bare allegations or not will you Kauff defenders just once answer an allegation against Kauff. After all there are hundreds now that you still refuse to acknowledge or explain the Kauff-coincidences.

How about the County Roard projects. It was townhouses under Centex then all of a sudden, and very sneekily, it was section 8 with one stroke of the Kauff magic wand.

We are waiting.

PythonFan1 said...

Don't waste your time. The Kauff plan is to make us look like we do not know what we are talking about. The proof we seek they know already exists. It is just smoke and mirrors. But where there is smoke there is soon to be a whole lot of fire. Fire in very public exposure of the Kauff antics. They will not be able to use their tricks then. How will they try and explain the unelected Kauff control and monies to a questioning public? They think the election will be a cake walk. Think again. Try these on for size.

Wake up Aberdeen Norman Kauff is stealing from your family.

Did you elect Norman Kauff to run Aberdeen?

Norman Kauff and millions of your tax dollars. Perfect together. Why?

RetiredinMatawan4now said...

Anyone hear that a possible pension deferral may be coming to Matawan and staffing cuts to boot. Gee one would think it is an election year and it is time to pull out all of the tricks to make the voters think you are doing something on their behalf. Most towns budgets are set already and I keep looking for Matawan and Aberdeen in the legal section and on the web. Did they get an extension for the towns to get their act together?

What will they think of next? Maybe they will try and lay people off or better yet give the hard working people at the low end of the scale time off without pay. That makes sense to the heavy hitters making the most and doing the least I am sure. I am so glad my retirement checks arrive like clockwork. It would be tough to be working now. Especially during an election year when they will do anything to get elected. They already sold their souls now they will maybe sell the financial stability of the workers. That is politics NJ style.

ProudGrampa said...

Hey retiredinmatawan4now just so you know the opening salvo of the Matawan budget were printed in the Independent newspaper for your town and mine. It also listed in another article the candidates for elected office in Aberdeen. One name in particular surprised me. Fred Tagliarini was my grandsons coach years ago. Now it seems he is on the democratic team. I though he was a life long republican. Talk about strange political bedfellows. What did he get to join team Kauff? I can't wait to see him and ask him about that. If he starts off with Norman Kauff has nothing to do with me I will be very disappointed. Everybody who has lived here for some years knows the real deal about the democrats. You could also probably drop by Broad Street and pick up a full budget copy if you want. Good luck.

The Planning Board certainly has been manipulated into supporting bad policy -- or they just have bad judgment.It is the Planning Board that adopted a plan to substitute "multi-family residential" for more favorable "highway commercial" on both Route 34 and County Road. It was the Planning Board that used the the cover of compliance with affordable housing law "COAH" to make those changes -- when other local towns are challenging bad policy -- this town embaces it? It was the Planning Board that tried to limit cell antennas on one side of town while embracing them on the other side of town.

And on the subject of the Cambridge houses - too many homes were allowed to be built on too small a space. The other issues, relating to developer incompetence added to the problem. As for the housing crisis -- those homes were built before the crisis hit Aberdeen.

The new Democratic Chairperson is head of the Planning Board and all the Dem candidates come from the Dem Planning Board. These are Norman Kauff's people, not that there's anything wrong with that.

I agree that the arguments on this blog about Kauff's folklore (I call it folklore because like all folklore it may or may not have an origination in a glimmer of fact but has become folklore as it has been repeated and repeated over time). This folklore is irrelevant and we should assume that people did not have bad intentions. People who make a choice to volunteer there time on behalf of the town should not be lambasted for doing so. We should thank them -- but in this case it is time for them to move on.

The argument made here is that Kauff and the Planning Board's actions resulted in bad policy and bad planning. I simply do not trust the same people that were part of forming that bad policy to hold elected positions on Council.

I sit back and I read the blog every day. This time I have to say something. If you do not think Mr. Kauff does not run every aspect of Aberdeen then you live in a state of denial.

That state would be right next to the State of Corruption, State of CME Payoffs, State of Idiotic Kauff Defenders and worst of all the State of Self Serving Political Hacks That Violate The Public Trust. The above in total is also called Aberdeen.

Toodles.

I actually want to salute the anonymous writer who wrote his message at 9:09 AM and sincerely wish he had signed his post with his name.

Finally - someone on this blog has managed to make an intelligent policy argument as to why he does not support the Democrats without finding it necessary to resort to name calling.

I salute you. While I may not agree with your position, I respect you very much for being able to intelligently articulate your reasoning rather than finding it necessary to create crime fiction to advance your cause.

I wish others on here would follow your example. If others did, we would be able to have a much more civil conversation about what is happening in our municipality.

Sherlock Holmes said...

Don't worry anonymous. I am alive and well in London at the moment. Motorcycle bandits won't stand in my way.

I am staying at my old residence on Baker Street which has been maintained in excellent condition by my dear friend Dr. John Watson ever since I departed these shores for my adopted home of Aberdeen.

I have a lot of information to tell everyone, but its very late here in London and old Holmes is not quite as young and sprite as he once was.

Before I head off to sleep however, I did want to say a few words on the recent comments by my personal idol the Truth. I fear his attack on my credibility is a sign he has been contacted by the FBI and told to discredit me and attempt to distract others from my mission.

I can only say to the Truth that I understand the influence J. Edgar Hoover has in your life. I understand he is making you say these things. I understand you are a true patriot and you truly believe Kauff won't be stopped if my mission continues.

In spite of Hoover's efforts to keep me from fully revealing the depths of the Kauff conspiracy, I won't be dissuaded from my sworn crusade to uncover the truth. You know we are on the same side Truth. You just have to keep your trust in me.

Case in point -- Its been exactly one week since I wrote my first message on this site. Has Kauff or any of the council members come here to deny those allegations?

NO! There have been no official denials to anything I have written. They dare not deny that Kauff shot JFK and JR. They dare not deny that Kauff was responsible for Watergate. They dare not deny that Kauff was responsible for the kidnapping of Paty Hearst and the Easter Bunny.(more on those in a later entry)

As there have not been any official denials, they must be true!

TRUTH - you are my idol and I know you do not believe the words J. Edgar is making you speak. We are on the same side and I will continue to act in your spirit as I continue my investigation into the truth behind Kauff and his minions.

I assure you that if I felt the FBI was doing a good job here, I would step back. However, it has been over a year since you first came to this blog and announced the FBI would be making arrests any day now. Where are they? You must ask yourself why they haven't arrested anyone yet even though so much information has been exposed on this blog.

I firmly believe the FBI has its heart in the right place. I just don't believe they will act until all of the evidence has been exposed. That is my mission and I will not be deterred from it.

So now, I must depart these pages and settle into my slumber. I do have a lot to tell everyone about my adventures in London since Santa Claus dropped me off in Piccadilly Circus. But that message will have to wait for another day. For now, Matt Houston's assistant, the lovely CJ, is calling for me from my bed.

Yes, my friends, despite his age, Holmes is still quite the lady's man! I would tell you more about that, but this is a family blog after all!

Good night from London! I will bring you more updates as soon as time permits.

From today's Star Ledger

Sen. Ray Lesniak says stolen BlackBerry contained no top-secret data
by Rohan Mascarenhas/The Star-Ledger
Monday April 20, 2009, 5:11 AM
Nowadays, so-called smart phones hold reams of private information -- documents, financial data, even candid pictures -- that could be leaked with just a few clicks in the wrong hands.

State Sen. Ray Lesniak (D-Union), however, isn't too worried about information spilling from his BlackBerry, which robbers took when they broke into his Elizabeth home and awoke him Saturday morning. For one thing, he said he thinks the crooks ditched the phone. For another, he didn't use it for data storage.

Norman Kauff denied any involvement in the theft; but is known to share many of the same phone numbers. When questioned by police, Kauff said, 'Who is that guy anyway'.

Does anyone know why there are absolutely no minutes posted for Planning or Zoning Board meetings. The timeliness lags for council meetings but absolutely none are posted for the two boards. Hopefully this is just an oversight, given that all of the democratic hopefuls have served on the Planning Board.

I was just trying to do my due diligence in an attempt to see the consistency of their voting (both with each other and specifically with major planning efforts, etc.)

Vinci and Lauro represented the Kauff team on the planning board for many years, up until 2008. Cannon is new so he has no history of any kind. Tagliarini and Montrose have always been loyal to the cause. Nobody should be offered a promotion off that planning board.
