Unwanted Development

Well, we all saw this coming, at least everybody but the developer, our “dear leaders” on the town council, and their political hacks on Aberdeen’s planning board and zoning board. Six years after being built, the Cambridge Park development remains over three-quarters empty. The one sale went to a Californian transplant whose employer fronted half the mortgage.

The developer continues to “update” the year built – now showing 2009 – and maintain the properties, but no amount of window dressing will hide the plain fact that the lots are too small. The house at 75 Cambridge practically touches its property borders on all sides. The other homes lack fences and decks to maximize their puny yards.

The four houses plus the undeveloped lot in the back provide the town an annual windfall of $50,000. But those short-term gains will soon become long-term losses.

Tax sale certificates, totaling over $30,000, have been sold against the three vacant houses indicating the developer may be struggling to maintain the properties. If so, the homes will be forced down to market prices. Once occupied, even an average of one public school child per house will cost the district over $5,000 per house. At two children per house, the development would lose the town $75,000 a year.

Of course, by the town council’s calculation, even if each house was home to a dozen kids, the municipal tax rate would still drop from the additional ratables and the inevitable school tax hikes would be blamed on someone else.

Meanwhile, the neighbors can’t be too pleased with an oversized empty development. Which brings us back to the original point – What was the town council thinking?

Exactly. What was the Council thinking? For starters, campaign contributions. Beyond that, I have no idea. Every time I drive down Cambridge I cannot believe how terrible that little sub-division looks. Nice job.

Apparently the California transplants take, while the New York transplants can't make the mortgage, and are eventually rejected. Right Joey?

So Joey, why don't you enlighten us then and tell us why you left? Further, after you answer that question, then why don't you explain why you still even bother with anything that pertains to Aberdeen since you don't live here anymore?

What is going on with the small condos on Atlantic Ave by Rt 34? They've been under construction for years now.

Anonymous said...

The one reason the Ciaglia family of developers still have those houses is from their greed and the flawed approvals paid to the highest bidder. The Ciaglia family got everything they wanted every time they wanted to build. They easily got their approvals just by paying the local politicians talked about on here for years. It's the dirty little secret in town that never makes it into campaign literature. Approvals are easy here just as long as they pay Norman Kauff and CM&E. You pay their fees and you get everything you want. Whether it is good for the town or not does not matter. When my own family and our neighbors came out loudly and often against the Ciaglia family application to build two houses on a small postage stamp sized lot, our disapproving voices meant nothing over the almighty political paying dollar. Any builder willing to pay those who approve then anything you want you get just as long as you pay the political thieves of Aberdeen. We also came out against the same builder when he wanted to build three more houses right by town hall. This time they did not get all they wanted. My husband thinks they fell out of political favor. Like Mr. Vail we also wince as we attend church on Sunday and have to look at the houses while new they are in their fourth year empty. It stands as a reminder of the greed that sells us tax payers down the river. Don't even get me started on how many kids came out from houses like these and what that cost the taxpayers. Our politicians don't look out for those of us who pay the bills. Builders pay more and get all they want. The community means nothing anymore. Shameful is the only word to use.

You are waiting for your sewers for one and only one reason. Norman and Dave won't make enough money.
Only property the town owns get looked into and we tax payers pay real good you see. Like the property that used to have a sign on the fence promising senior housing by Matawan. That senior housing will never get built since the town controls its use. Town property gets studied time and time again to make money for Normie and Dave. You can bet that more studys will come real soon. Campaigns cost and the taxpayers monie is always there for the democrats. Sorry Mom no room at the inn.

I've posted on here before when those eyesore houses come up. I'm furious enough with their approval, but I don't want to see any Cross of Glory members on here complaining about them.

The FACT is that the pastor of that church begged Ciaglia and the township to build those houses. That church filled its coffers from selling that land. So, don't any churchgoers dare come on here and complain... The money ended up in your congregation just as sure as it did with Ciaglia and CME.

In fact, Cross of Glory's money problems were the impetus for those houses being built. Ciaglia thought he could sell them in a booming market. The council/boards didn't want to dare put a church out of business. And, as usual, CME saw $$$.

Now, we neighbors are stuck with those white elephants. I have no problem joining/hearing the complaints, but I don't want to hear a word from any Cross of Glory members that they're upset about those eyesores... Just ask your former pastor how the church's land ended up becoming an ill-conceived subdivision...

Eyesore houses ? You said what about the developer application to build them there ? Enough said I think ?

Developer paid the politico shakedown and got approval for too many houses on that size a lot.

And you said what ?

Builder made the church wait two years for their money while they could have sold the same property for much more money. Church wad threatened with a lawsuit from the same developer who had not paid the church their money because he claimed the town held him financially hostage.

And you said what ?

Aberdeener said...

You have a question for me? By all means, ask away.

The said...

Mr. Warren, let's look a little deeper at Ciaglia and friends.
Like at the Infosino house on Church St., right across from Joseph Ciaglia's stone house. After Mr. Infosino died his widow was "aggressively approached" by Ciaglia to sell. She rejected his offer. Shortly after that the council voted to pursue eminent domain against Mrs. Infosino. Then suddenly eminent domain was withdrawn and Mrs. Infosino accepted Ciaglia's offer. I still don't know what the council's "justification" for eminent domain was...
There was also the case of Mrs. Fetta on Line Rd. who was also "aggressively approached" to sell to Ciaglia. I'm sure there have been others. Wsa the Church "aggressively approached"?

More Ciaglia houses are planned said...

More Ciagila houses are planned for the corner of Atlantic and Chruch (next to the Township Municipal Building) and for the corner of Church and Line roads.

Aberdeener said...

Regarding the Infosino property, my understanding is that Infosino's sons contacted the township on multiple occasions, their entreaties were dutifully ignored, and they had no alternative but to sell to Ciaglia. However, on the flip side, Ciaglia was limited to two houses on the vacant land.

As for the Church, they needed the money to satisfy a contractor's lien against the property following repairs to the fire damage. They had an agreement with Ciaglia but Ciaglia refused to pay until he had the township's permission to build. When the church got a better offer, Ciaglia threatened and the Church backed down.

Kauff, Ciaglia and the $$$$ said...

The Italo connections gave Ciaglia everything they wanted. Of course the one non Italo controls everything in the entire process that allows Ciaglia types to build and build and build...........Look at the names on the Planning and Zoning Boards for more proof of the Italo connections that drive the Kauff choice developers to get anything they want as long as they pay and pay......See the connections yet? All you have to do is connect the Kauffkins who give a wink and a nod to the Ciaglia types as they say it is all the school taxes fault. Kauff has given approvals to build about two hundred fifty residences since he took over. That also means about eighty to one hundred students at $13,800.00 each.

I agree with Sweeney said...

Political big shot and Democrat Steve Sweeney wants shared services for municipalities to help the taxpayers with their property taxes through shared services, consolidation of police and fire services and major purchasing. What will our leaders in Matawan do? Mayor Buccellato needs to get together with the town officials in our neighboring Aberdeen, Keyport and maybe Marlboro to possibly get some financial relief for residents and businesses. I hear something was done with grass cutting, fuel and salt purchases for our town attaining some savings last year. It is time much more gets accomplished. Maybe it is time for the usual political egos to get put aside to ensure that the taxpayers finally come first. Up until now a real level of cooperation between these two towns is long overdue. I think egos have or will be the real stumbling block to the real cost savings that Sweeney wants but deeply entrenched and beholding politicians may be the only problem. Of course there is the money, political favors and in Aberdeen that one little secret that us long time residents of Matawan have laughed at for years. Many of us old timers have laughed at the revolving door of management in Aberdeen and the political covering compliments in newspapers that fooled no one. Then of course there is Mr. Kauff, which needs no explanation other than handcuffs and a long prison sentence. For example with the exception of the justly imprisoned Mr. Coren the last two management appointments did not last too long at all. With one exception being the one discussed on here quite often a man who was put out of Aberdeen for interfering in the money train to the town engineers and others aligned with the hidden leader of Aberdeen in Mr. Kauff. I would suggest to my towns officials that if you have to meet with Mr. Kauff over this that you have the building fumigated as soon as the meeting is over.

Nothing personal just business said...

Ciaglia has had a relative on the approving board the whole time he was applying. It will be said he never voted himself on a family matter. Sure he didn't and of course the fellow board members did nothing wrong as they voted yes to the approvals for their fellow board members family. Look at the board rosters is an understatement. I would not label it only being an italian but there is a definite Kauff and Democratic party connection that is not hidden at all. It's a joke.

Ciaglia $$$ problems??? said...

Don't shed any tears for the Ciaglia family just yet. Much like cockroaches, lawyers and politicians after a nuclear holocaust, they will always survive. I think the empty houses they built are the best monument to greed, politic trickery and local corruption at its best.

Not Going to Work..... said...

I agree with Sweeney, it will never happen when it comes to any part of both towns personel. The political egos in both towns will not let it happen. They would rather lay people off from their careers then lose their power of them to another town. The only way it will ever work is if one of the towns just shut down and gave all the workings to the other. I myself, still am not convinced that all the work to do mergers and shared services would be worth the supposed savings. I don't care how much if anything is saved, you, me, and no other resident in any of those towns will see money back in your pockets. It will just get shoveled off somewhere that we will never know. I am still waiting for these towns to join and fight the school district. Instead, they sit alone, vote down the budget, and allow an arbitrator to make the final decision.

Pretty fire trucks?$$$? said...

Did anyone see Senator Sweeney's swipe at all the pretty fire trucks in the same article today? Sweeney says far too many pretty volunteer company fire trucks dominate parades and are often useless. He was stating that volunteer fire houses have far more and far prettier fire trucks than most major cities have. Just more tax $$ wasted. Mayors and councils need to take the excess reserve money from the fire houses and leave our library alone.

Nothing really gets developed said...

What is going on with the project just off highway 34? I ask this as It seems stalled. Stalled that is just like the development by town hall that people were told would be completed by last fall for seniors. Just like the development they said was coming off route 516 that would be age restricted. Just like the development at the old factory with the big smokestacks off the parkway that was going to be housing and a small mall with a movie theatre. Just like the building the condos that stopped being built by CVS over a year ago. Just like the big broo ha ha on County Road that was for low income folks. Just like the old pool club property on Lloyd Road. Just like the....... to be continued of course with big legal, engineering, planner and assorted municipal fees that never seem to really get anything built. The only thing that really seems to get built are the big skyscraper fees that are paid by developers and builders, many of whom are going out of business, bankrupt or just trying to hang on or maybe even begging for a thorough investigation by law enforcement investigators. The builders of course are not as ethically, morally and criminally bankrupt it seems as the political leadership of Aberdeen who seem to be nothing more than shakedown artists that promise the world and never deliver the product. Many builders refuse to work in Aberdeen and will not return. Welcome to the reality that is 'development according to Norman Kauff'. More to come we can all be sure just as soon as the campaign literature from the corrupt Kauff Democrats hit the campaign trail for 2011. Will they roll out the same old pictures of the old River Metals site with more promises for the seniors they count on for uninformed votes.

Matawan next stop have to go.

King Vinci costs us big $ said...

Monmouth County had the total number at $685,047.00 for the King Vinci intersection. The house they bought and tore down was $310,995.00 alone. Engineering was almost $100,000.00. Construction of intersection and all of the usual extras was $275,000.00 +-. I asked Freeholder Clifton about it one time in town and he refused to really discuss it. His exact words were "I don't have the figures on that and i was not that involved with that". It is said by someone who supervised the job site for the county that "Vinci whined and whined and that is why they wasted the money on this location". Imagine that three quarters of a million dollars to shut up some old whiny has been politician.

It's good to be KING VINCI said...

Come on people do you know how annoying it is to have cars pull past your house? I mean there must have been as many as 10 or 15 vehicles a day that bothered Councilman Vinci and caused him to whine and complain to get that overly expensive and all too typical political change to make him happy ever after.

We cannot allow such a thing to happen to one of our hardest working elected officials. Is Aberdeen some barbaric country? Barbaric like in those numerous communist countries where elected officials tell the people and businesses what they can and cannot do. Are we barbaric where we mistrust these elected officials who take our monies without real substantive cause or explanation. Barbaric like having to wait in line and beg our political leadership for the basic necessities of life. Hey wait a minute that is life in our barbaric Aberdeen. So never mind.

Don't forget the best part after that insultingly expensive intersection was done Councilman "man of the people my ass" Vinci purchased without any developmental restrictions two adjoining parcels of land expanding the King Vinci kingdom all at taxpayers expense.

It truly is good to be King Vinci.

Right Councilman Vinci?

Excuse me Your Majesty I meant to say

King Vinci

Vinci paid his share? said...

That is an outright lie? Councilman Vinci paid $1.00 for each lot. It is unknown what legal, engineering or planning fees were required to be paid by Vinci. If the average developer doing work in Aberdeen paid $1.00 a lot the normal bill for the usual suspects in the Norman Kauff controlled developer process would be a paltry $90,008,76. We can all be sure that Vinci paid his fair share just like any developer, business owner or taxpayer. Right Norm?

Wrong. Young Clifton was the one involved and in case you have been in a time warp Tom Powers has not been a Freeholder for over nine years. The intersection was installed two years ago. Even our inept local county government does not move that slow. Let me guess you still think Eisenhower is The President of the United States. Nice try at political cover though.

No one should ever doubt that our Kauffie wants development for his Aberdeen. Just as long as he and his gang can profit handsomely and continue to bleed us taxpayers dry under the guise of Kauffie controlled development. You see development deals pay really good with taxpayers money year after year.

Don't you trust our Kauffie to always be honest and forthright as a pillar of the political, legal and Jewish community?

from the book of Shaft said...

On the 100th day of the year of our Joey 11, Joey, and several of his apostles were traveling from the Kingdom of Brooklyn, to Barza in the used chariot that Joey bought from Gerald, the seller of used chariots.

Just as he passed through the entrance gates to Barza, Shaft pulled behind him in his Police chariot. Shaft turned on the red candle atop his chariot, signaling Joey to stop.

When Joey attempted to stop the chariot, the brakes failed and Joey continued to speed up as the road to Barza took a downhill slant.

Shaft, thinking Joey was running from him yelled " who the fuck do you think you are running from me bitch?". Joey responded " Shaft, I am well aware of thy bad motherfuckerness, but thine brakes appear to be defective on thy used chariot, acquired from Gerald, seller of used chariots."

Shaft found this incredibly amusing, especially since Joey was just complaining about how Shaft's Royal Barzanian Police were overpaid, even though he lived in the kingdom of Brooklyn, and really had no say in what went on in Barza. He also found it ironic that the Barzanian Police were somehow supposed to save his stupid ass now. Shaft yelled to Joey "that's what you get for buying one of those broke ass chariots , and being too motherfucking cheap to buy one that works. You are ass out, stupid!"

This is the word of the Warren

The intersection improvements by Councilman Vinci was needed for drivers and pedestrian traffic. Granted the buying and tearing down of a perfectly good house, putting in a unnecessary roadway and the blocking of a street on which Councilman Vinci lives, was very unnecessary. Councilman Vinci is still no good but the traffic light and improved striping was needed. Of course we overpaid for most of it. After all this is New Jersey what do you expect.

As the other posters noted, the township never solicits bids for engineering services because the councilmen would have to forfeit their $50,000 in campaign contributions.

Norm $mells said...

Regarding the Ciaglia development at the Cross of Glory Church. Firstly, When Strathmore was built, Mr. Levitt gifted that land to the church with the stipulation that it not be sold or built on unless it was associated with the church. This mind you was put in writing which is why it was empty for so many years or in the day the church would have had every developer knocking on their door.


It is obvious that this whole deal was built on corruption between the town, the developer and unfortunately the church. I understand the church was in monetary distress, however I would like to see how the written legal agreement was skirted between Mr. Levitt and the church but then again remember the town we are dealing with.

I long for the day that they are all taken down from top to bottom and they DOC should make them a chain gang to clean the streets in the striped jumpsuits they all deserve.

Church needed the money said...

Cross of Glory needed the money after the fire. That is a compassionate reason to have allowed the sale. The thing that is unfortunate is that Kauff, CME and Ciaglia made money off of the churches misery. The fact that the church could have made more money and was in fact threatened by the Ciaglia mob with legal fees that the church could not afford to spend. Then the Ciaglia mob made the church wait two years for the money they so desperately needed. I also heard that the church and the Ciaglia mob also had to wait two years plus for Norman Kauff to give his ble$$ing to the project. That is the crime that the Ciaglia mob, Norman Kauff and anyone else involved will be judged for in the end. Some group you attached your new political affiliation to Fred. What happened to the Coach Fred we knew?

Mr. Norman Kauff I just put your name onto google search and you cannot believe what comes out about you. Are you really that much of a dishonest, corrupt and unethical man? Just punch in the name Norman Kauff and press enter. Then let the fun begin.

Yawn all you want Norm. You are outclassed, outranked, out insulted and I keep wondering how much more can you take. I mean they now have your wife on here in a very embarrassing way and paying a *stiff price* for your crimes against the taxpayers and residents of Aberdeen. Stiff price he hee heee. That is a funny one huh Norm? Stiff price will be what they get for your old ass in the joint. If I were you Norm i'd be waiting for the sex crime pedophile Mark Coren the minute he gets out of prison. Norm you need to get the real scoop on surviving in prison using your orifices. I for one hope you are not a fast learner and get passed around like a joint at a Grateful Dead show. Then again you are a big orifice yourself. Right Norm?

Norm and Levitt were BFF said...

Does anybody know if the release of the original deed restriction from Levitt is a public document? Supposedly Norm paid Levitt a visit to get that release signed.

The only thing that gets developed in Aberdeen is the corrupt bank accounts of Kauff and his gang. Fact.

Aberdeener said...

I saw the covenant. If you look at the deed between the church and Ciaglia, it cites the prior deed but lists the wrong page number. I don't recall the correct page number but the covenant was signed and it pre-dated Norm.

Kauff got the signature said...

It's true and the old man who built Aberdeen when Kauff was just a scumbag in training at some law school.

Aloha Normie said...

Normie many of your oppressed Aberdeen taxpayers hope you are e mailing into the Aberdeener site today from the tropical paradise of Hawaii this morning. Normie may we suggest that you do us all a big favor and get a really comfortable beach chair and go sit by the waves crashing at the beautiful Hawaiian shore. Go down to the shore for about the next twenty four hours Normie. So Normie do us all a big favor and get a bunch of those tropical drinks with the little umbrellas and drink away. Tell the hotel that the taxpayers you have robbed all these years will gladly pick up the bar tab. But Normie don't worry If you see the ocean water all of a sudden recede in a big way don't be too concerned. So just relax Normie just sit back and sip away on your yummy cocktails. But Normie just stay right where you are even if the water goes away for a little bit. Don't worry Normie the water will be back in a really big way. One final question Normie. Normie do you know how to swim? Us taxpayers that you have robbed with your political corruption all these years really hope you don't know how to even tread water. Don't worry though Normie they say that drowning is just like going to sleep. ZZZZZZ sleep tight Normie.

Norm they said you are a smart man? If you think the number is four people then you are an idiot. I mean between the fire dept. and cops there must be 20 alone. Then if we add the people you and cme screwed over all these years and those who hate lawyers and hack politicians i'm thinking its closer to at least 1275 people that can't stand your greedy, unethical and thoroughly corrupt guts. I cannot imagine living with such hate being heaped upon you on a daily basis. So you keep thinking 4. End it Norm do us all a favor. Remember the song in the TV series MASH Norm?

Do you idiots really believe that you are arguing with Norman Kauff?

Time to pray said...

No genius we don't. We know this NORM is certainly just one of the idiots who seek to irritate all the corrupt, unethical and immoral individuals who feed off of the #1 Scumbag of Aberdeen, their Norman Kauff. We seek to irritate all of the Kauffkin scum because we know that they all monitor this site and perhaps just one of them will realize that the end of the corrupt political gravy train is coming. Maybe just one of them will stand up and tell what they know in advance of the early morning sweep they all know is coming. They can laugh all they want. We also love the fact that all of the Kauffkins think they will always be protected by Kauff and CME when the end comes. The postings that we suggest of hearing a man screaming the words "how do they find these things out" they know most of the controlled by Kauff leaders simply "can't keep their mouths shut". This is also true since many of the controlled by Kauff leaks of information are all tools we use to get under the skin of those so allegiant to such a controlling and corrupt man. A man who singularly, corruptly and illegally controls the weak political leadership that could not lead themselves out of a shoe box. We know things either singularly or collectively because we have been here to witness the annual democratic corruption which seems to have no end. I say which seems to have no end because little by little the word is getting out to the right people. The letter from the fireman assaulted recently sent to Paula Dow and Governor Christie as well as two letters sent to Governor Christie detailing the corruption here in Aberdeen are real and the Kauffkins know that their days are numbered. They can laugh all they want as we cry from the taxpayers oppressive costs to keep Kauff in power. Developers don't want to work in Aberdeen, the Ciaglia greed and the questionable approvals by Kauff and CME all be it granted them illegally will all be a part of the puzzle to bring them down. Do you really think we don't have proof of most of this. We just point to those involved and who profit on our backs. We are able to point to the people involved from Kauff, Scudeiri, Lesniak, Flynn, CME and many others who all fit together in the corruption puzzle that is the route of political corruption in Aberdeen that leads to that house on Justice Lane. When the sweep comes just watch the gates of information spill forth. Who among them will squeal first? Subpoenas served at town hall and CME offices will bring paperwork and testimony that will bring the little Kauff club to an end once and for all. Time for church so I have to go. I will pray as I do everyday that this siege of corruption will end to save the residents of Aberdeen. Save all of us before more of us are priced out of the town they love. My own parents have listed their home recently and they will have to leave. Even on two retirements they cannot afford the Kauff corruption. Politics has a price but the Kauff corruption cost is too high.

Norm said...

Your parents are moving because they can't afford their house on 2 pensions? How about you start paying rent on your bedroom? Or, maybe start paying for some of your own food? Maybe then they can stay.

Anonymous said...

Anyone who knows anything will say nothing. WHY? Because they knew and said nothing, that maks them accomplices. They go with Norman when the time comes. If the time ever comes which I seriously doubt. SO, the town workers can say whatever they want and cry about this and that and no raises, but unless someone in the know gets seriously squeezed nobody, including Norman, is going anywhere.

I wrote it Norm said...

Norm I wrote the post about my parents not being able to stay in town due to the very real costs of the Norman Kauff political corruption. My parents have worked hard all of their lives and provided well for my bother, my sister and myself. Their hopes to stay with their family and friends in Cliffwood are fading quickly due to the inflated school budgets and the costs associated with your corrupt leadership. I too believe that your corruption is becoming more well known and hopefully investigated by the proper authorities. I hope to be working if and when the authorities bring a long overdue end to your political trickery. I work at the Monmouth County Jail in Freehold and if you ever get brought in for processing I will be the one to look in your face and say welcome to where you deserve to be. How can you live with yourself?

"Wrong. Young Clifton was the one involved and in case you have been in a time warp Tom Powers has not been a Freeholder for over nine years. The intersection was installed two years ago. Even our inept local county government does not move that slow. Let me guess you still think Eisenhower is The President of the United States. Nice try at political cover though. Is it your first time?"

March 9, 2011 6:25 AM


OK, let's take a look at this...

You say: "Young Clifton was the one involved and in case you have been in a time warp Tom Powers has not been a Freeholder for over nine years."
FACT: Powers was a freeholder through the end of 2006 when he was director. (Just over 4 years ago, not over nine)

You say: The intersection was installed two years ago.
FACT: The final plans are dated 1/8/04. Powers was a freeholder (deputy director under Harry Larrison). If that was when the final plans were approved, the intersection had to be in the discussion stage at least back to 02 or 03. Clifton didn't become a freeholder until 2005.

Nice try, it's obvious you just don't like Clifton. Fine, but at least stick with facts. Who, what, where, when, why. You know, like a journalist.
