Dreams of Green

"That ain't working, that's the way you do it
Money for nothing and your chicks for free"
- Dire Straits

Wonderful news. Aberdeen’s town council has found a way to save a million dollars in electric bills over the next fifteen years and get a free roof to boot. And, if you believe that, there’s more wonderful news. The senior housing center on Church St. will finally be developed. As will the transit village, Anchor Glass, and Aberdeen Forge. And, between the cost savings and new ratables, residents will finally see some tax relief.

Find it all a bit hard to believe? You’re not the only one.

Last June, the township issued an RFP for a company to build and maintain, at its own expense, solar panels for township properties plus install a new roof for town hall and then charge the township for the electricity generated by the solar panels at sub-market rates.

New Jersey has the fastest growing solar power market in the country so you’d think there'd be a lot of competition for such a plum assignment. Yet, only one company responded. Nexus Energy Solutions, a spin-off from Nexus Development, has no experience building or installing solar panels aside from having hired other companies to install solar panels at its office headquarters and parking garage.

By coincidence, I’m sure, Nexus is also a regular contributor to the state’s Democratic Party. Another coincidence, I’m equally sure, is that the town council is all Democrat and has a well-documented history of pay-to-play.

Anyways, despite having roughly the same experience as any homeowner who hired a contractor to install solar panels on his roof, Nexus’ proposals received an average score of 93 out of 100 in the township’s proposal review.

After $864,000 in federal tax credits, the project’s estimated net cost is $2,000,000. The township’s first year projected savings is $56,000. (The Mayor is reported as saying the savings would be $60,000 in the first year and grow to $85,000 but he was plainly referring to “Option 2”, which didn’t include a free roof and was therefore rejected.)

Assuming Nexus needs to recoup at least 20% a year to cover its upfront investment plus interest, maintenance costs, and return on investment, and the township will save $56,000, that means the township’s electric bill to the utility company will drop by nearly half a million dollars. That’s a lot of electricity.

Discounting the $200,000 spent annually on traffic lights, which are not covered by this proposal, the town budgets $75,000 for electric to the municipal buildings and an indeterminate amount for water and sewers. (Over three quarters of the water and sewer operating budgets fall under the line item of “Other,” as in none “of yer” business. See Sheets 32 and 35)

Will Nexus actually fulfill the terms of the agreement? Will the township see the promised savings? That remains to be seen. However, consider this little footnote. The RFP required “Respondents to propose a [Power Purchase Agreement] Price post proposal adjustment factor, expressed in dollars per KwH, to adjust the PPA, upward or downward based upon final Project Development Costs stated in the RFP.” Yet, in the township’s review, there’s strangely no discussion of the “adjustment factor”.

Maybe that’s why Nexus agreed to pay $95,000 for a new roof in exchange for $70,000 in revenue spread out over 15 years. Adjustment factors can do wonders for the bottom line.

Well, given the township’s history of successful development and the vendor’s extensive experience and technical know-how, I’m confident the township will be issuing more updates in time for the next election cycle. >>> Read more!

I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. That shoe would be the one that Kauff and his CME kick the taxpayers in the teeth with for every little or not so little construction, road, water or sewer project or any other Kauff dream sheet project the town officials and their Kauff start BUT NEVER EVER FINISH.

Just another day in Kaufferdeen!

Cut and paste this. This is the democratic mayoral candidate in Matawan. She will fit right in with someone in town. I think that someone still works in Matawan as a "top" law enforcement officer. Just what Matawan needs. I also understand she made so borderline racial comments herself at a recent council meeting.

The truth about Aberdeen said...

Nothing is free in Aberdeen. Not as long as our elected officials, management and employees allow the political corruption at present is in control to rob our community of its fiances and its quality of life. The corrupting money that feeds the political animals that are the political leeches and hangers on that are unfortunately allowed to overcharge and do minimal and highly questionable work. All without a fair and closely monitored much less an honest system under our highly questionable leadership.

This unfortunately is our Aberdeen communities reality for far to long. The fact that Pay to Play rules have not been enacted in Aberdeen is the root cause of the political corruption that is pervasive in our Aberdeen.

Will not one person stand up for the taxpayers, business owners, students and residents and say enough is enough against our elected leadership?

I received an ad in the mail the other day from the Aberdeen Democrats promoting their candidates for Township Council. The ad suggested that the "Aberdeen Democratic Team" has proven itself by fixing roads, installing solar panels, and securing open spaces, but 3 of the 4 candidates weren't even on the Council when those projects were accomplished. What they are really telling you is that the Township is being run by the Democratic Party through the Council, whoever they happen to put in there.

Individuals should run for office, not parties.And parties ought not to be running the town; the Township Council should be in charge. I personally believe in the checks and balances that result from a two party system and would prefer that the Council was, if not balanced, then at least less lopsided. Voters simply don't have adequate access to local political decision making when one party goes into executive session, for example. Where is the give and take? The exposure of bad ideas in press releases or news leaks? Where is the corrective when things are going wrong? Voting Column 2 as the Democrats suggest in their ad won't give you those checks and balances.

There are a lot of big signs and glossy mailings being paid for by the Democratic Party this year, so the machine obviously wants to remain in total control of the Council. The Republicans have yet to make their presence known, so I suppose the Dems will sweep the Council yet again.

There is apparently no political cost to the Democrats for major projects that continue to languish - the pool club, the glass plant, and the railroad plaza. The new senior center seems to be going to a major Democratic contributor in the state. And there is no cost to the Dems for overdeveloping County Road, tapping the free public library's budget allocation, leaving the grass growing tall at our roadsides and the snow piled so high on area sidewalks that our kids have to walk in the street to get to school.

I'll be voting for sunshine on the Council and quality of life in our Township this November. njaberdeenlife

POlitician told the truth? said...

It has finally happened Aberdeen!

Mayor Fred Tagliarini has finally told the truth!

Mayor Fred Tagliarini was quoted in the Bayshore Independent newspaper in regards to the NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN IN OUR LIFETIME TRANSIT VILLAGE.

Quote by Mayor Fred Tagliarini in regards to an article where soon to be deposed from power Mayor Buccelato and the other Matawan idiots have decided to lie to the citizens of Matawan just before the election where sitting officials will be replaced.

At least our Mayor Fred Tagliarini told the truth when asked about how Aberdeen's public officials, OK Norman Kauff really is continuing the charade of allowing a convicted felon to head up the NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN IN OUR LIFETIME Transit Village.

So what did our Mayor Fred Tagliarini say?

Mayor Fred Tagliarini said the most honest thing any politician has ever said when he said the following in regards to the transit village in Aberdeen. Mayor Fred Tagliarini said "nothing is concrete in regards to the transit village moving forward.

HOLY SHIT AN ABERDEEN POLITICIAN TOLD THE TRUTH?

So to recap for all of my fellow business owners and oppressed taxpayers THE TRANSIT VILLAGE WILL NEVER HAPPEN IN OUR LIFETIME.

Don't get me wrong CME and various other scum attached at the taxpayers wallet and pocketbook will continue to overcharge us for nonsensical CME studies, escrow accounts will be drained, signs will go up with politicians names on them with occasional changes over the next ten years to change the names of the most recent Kauff puppets to continue the TRANSIT VILLAGE FRAUD.

Right Norm?
Right Mayor Tagliarini?
Right Town Council?
Right Planning Board?

Right Town Attorneys?

I certainly hope everyone behaves at the game tonight.

Don't forget he was raising money for one of his star players who killed his wife. Maybe this latest violent outburst is a peek inside things to come. You lay with fleas and you get to itching yourself. Right Gorilla Joe. I hope the Bored of Ed did not scrimp on the police protection tonight. Good luck to those of you going to the game tonight.

Those involved in the trouble sat out the game last night. Smart move Joe Martucci. Maybe the police were starting to earn their $4.5 million dollars for once. Then again all of the ones at the game last night were getting paid $65.00 an hour to watch football. Nice work when you can demand it. Still waiting for stats on what our force does for all that money the taxpayers give them. Big article in the press today on how many cops go out on disability as well. Seems politicians give into police pressure and the public perception that constricting police budgets and asking to see what they do for all that money is starting to take hold. Not in Aberdeen of course because our force gets everything they want and probably don't earn form Kauff. I'm not anti-police cause I am anti gouging cops who don't generate revenue or show us what they do for all that taxpayer money. Forget the last contract that gave away the taxpayer farm to the upper do nothing management on our force. Upper management what a joke. These days off given to a few upper cops shows me as a manager that if they can take off all these cushy days off that there are too many managers for a force our size if they don't need to be around that often. Big thank you to the councilman who let me in on what the police management got in the last negotiation by the way. This isn't the South Bronx by the way Chief Powers. You would not last a day on that force. I'd bet on it.

Can't say it was not unexpected looking at what our leadership has failed to accomplish in our community.

Politicians file approvals to post signs on property in their towns? Are you kidding me? Politicians and their Lord and Master Puppeteer Norman "Aberdeen is mine all mine" Kauff use public employees all of the time to get elected and maintain their corrupt control. Just look at the special deal posted recently that a said a few of the police brass were "gifted" with. All the details have not been divulged but it looks like another sweet deal for a few at the expense of the many.

My Rabbi spoke recently about shared sacrifice for the better of all. Such a topic does not it seem exist in our corrupt municipal government. I cannot believe the other employees and unions have sat silently if this "gift" is true.

Such a "gift" is a too typical political move to keep the smoke and mirrors of typical political corruption that is our corruptly controlled and manipulated Aberdeen. Just another day in the corrupt political playground that is the corrupt Norman Kauff illegally, immorally and unethically controlled Aberdeen.

I am personally ashamed to have known of Norman Kauff years ago and not recognize his failings and effects on our whole community. I and am similarly disappointed in my brethren who have done his bidding for a few favors here and there in exchange for our votes.

Now the Republicans want people to give money?

Would it be the ileegal lawyer based deal that will pay off to Kauff and Co. for every unit sold at the never to happen Anchor Glass site development?

Would it be that Kauff appoints his successors and gets paid handsomely for doing so?

Would it be the secret meetings held in illegal locations under the guise of Democratic Club meetings?

Would it be the true costs of all the Kauff approval giveaways that have have put hundreds of kids in the school system at $13,800 each with more to come from even more illegal Kauff developmental approvals?

Would it be from the CME corruption that enables unchecked billings and no show work for the Church Street senior housing that will never happen although hundreds of thousands in fraudulent and corrupt bills from CME will truly be the only ?work? performed?

I have to go to the airport I will continue this later.

Long live Norm it is sadly said in a previous post.

The longer that old corrupted to the heart lawyer lives the quicker the town dies from its own corrupting politically enslaved leadership.

It is truly a really bad Democratic joke that never ends.

It is truly a damn elected corruption filled shame.

The Kauff faithful think they are honest and forthright doing right for the Aberdeen community.

The corruption examples are many and undeniable.

The named rebuttal denials are nonexistent.

The questionable developments are undeniable.

The too close connections to Kauff % for all services are similarly undeniable and the root of the political corruption.

The corrupting carte blanche of Kauff' C.M.E. are similarly undeniable and are ruining our town.

Notice how no ? have to be used in this post.

Just like the lack of any denials from these Kauff associates are the 100% true facts are not in question from a man who was a Democrat once.

Above is all the democratic corruption filled truth and exemplifies how corrupting one man can be.

That man is our despicable Norman Kauff Esquire.

You know who know the above is 100% true.

Kauff knows it is 100% true.
Tagliarini knows it is 100% true.
Vincie knows it is 100% true.
Drapkin knows it is 100% true.
Gumbs knows it is 100%.
Montone knows it is 100% true.
Lauro knows it is 100% true.
Cannon knows it is 100% true.

Fellow Aberdeeners,

Please get out and vote on Nov. 8th. Send the Aberdeen Dems packing. In return, you'll be subjected to my incoherent rambling and generally being a fat jerkoff twice a month for four years.

Please. I need this. As of now, my time as a loudmouth idiot on the school board is running out. Next time, I will probably need more than 25 write-in votes to win a seat. This is impossible now that people saw my mugshot-like picture in last week's Independent newspaper. Please, I beg you. Get out and vote or I'll have to go visit Joey in NYC to get the feeling that people care what I have to say.

Yours truly,

Ken

P.S. Gus says get out and vote for him too. He'd write his own post, but he's currently going over ink blots with his psychiatrist.

Will anyone help us? said...

Save us Superman! Save us from the enemy of the people th at is Norman Kuaff. Up up and away!

The last Halloween in Aberdeen said...

Happy Halloween Aberdeen.

Tonite when Ghouls and Goblins come to your door tell all of them to enjoy this last Haloween trick or treating.

Because if the evil Ghoul that is CountDracuKauff and his ScumGoblins win the 2011 election there will be no money left anywhere in Aberdeen for the kiddies or anyone else to live on much less get little treats at Halloween.

Right CountDracuKauff?

VOTE FOR ANYONE BUT THE KAUFF CONTROLLED said...

That post about countkauffie was very funny, Too bad the corruption filled leadership that is choking the life out of our community is not funny. Time for change.

VOTE FOR ANYBODY BUT THE KAUFF CONTROLLED.

So true they are Ghouls and Goblins said...

You can bet this is a big day for Mark Coren. The FREAK that he is will no doubt be hoping for young boys to come to his door by accident. Got to know where Coren lives the neighbors are watching him closely like they should for the perverted scumbag that he is. Just another star in the corruption filled gang of thieves and misfits surrounding Norman Kauff.

Of course Norm still has his other two child molesting pervs, a disbarred attorney and more misfit scum surrounding him to take Coren' place.

I hear Kauff' main shakedown artist Bob Axlerod was seen trick or treating in Manalapan again this year as Mr. Freeze from the Batman series. It is nice that Norm let Axlerod go out trick or treating today instead of shaking down developers for money to fund the corrupt Kauff Aberdeen Democratic Club.

I like the post about the Kauff ghouls and goblins.

So true.

Best costume ever! said...

I just had a kid come to my door trick or treating.

He had a map of Aberdeen glued onto him with a big knife dripping blood out of the middle of the map.

I asked him what his costume was?

He said I am showing the killing of Aberdeen by Norman Kauff and his corrupt political hacks.

I gave him the whole F'n bucket of candy and all the money in my wallet for his originality and honesty.

Finally someone gets it!

Why don't you get it Coach Tags?

Joey which Aberdeen Twp. candidates are you voting for?

Council meetings? said...

What happened to council meetings in town?

How about the meeting minutes? said...

They are Kauffcouncil meetings not council meetings. Just like the Kauffzoning and Kauffplanning meetings.

Why ask about Kauffcouncil meetings not happening when the state mandated meeting minutes are not done and available to the public as they are supposed to be done?

The minutes are never done close to according to the laws time frames.

That is mandated according to the laws of the State of New Jersey.

Laws?

Laws?

Kauff don't listen to the law.

Kauff is the law?

Or is Attorney General Dow the law to be reckoned with in Aberdeen?

We soon shall see.

Very soon!

Cut the strings finally said...

Recorded town council meeting minutes not maintained like the law says. The republicans did nothing about bringing it to light and showing why a change in elected representation is so needed. Town council meetings cancelled purposefully to not have questions asked right before the important 4 seats and control election that is so important to the ruling corruption filled party. These are just two of the things that would have cost the republicans nothing to get the word out. The pen is mightier than the sword and the republicans never learn that the election was not all about the money that they did not have. It did not cost anything to walk and talk to people and hand out a flier of the Top 10 corruption filled topics and damages from the puppet master of Aberdeen. Likewise it did not cost anything to go to council meetings and question the way to cozy relationships and corrupt illegal percentages paid to the democratic puppet master. That is how to win elections in an environment like this with people losing everything. Government is thought to be corrupt. Aberdeen and its government is no different and easier to show to a frustrated public. As a business owner I know the effects of the puppet master and his minions. Time to cut the strings from the puppet master who is killing Aberdeen.

Don't kid yourself the town workers have been doing every favor they can for everyone who calls. My neighbor trimmed all his bushes long after the storm damage was picked up. I told him he should have asked them to paint his house since they picked it all up. They probably would have done it. Doing favors and keeping the train ticket guy in check makes people think the D's care about them. Gullible people are that idiotic of course. Those would on here also be called Kauffkins. I call them a holes.

My votes and everyone I know will vote republican if I can help it. I don't really care if the republicans lose. I just want the elected Kauff clones to know they don't have a mandate to continue to screw us over. I also hope the hammer of justice comes down on every single one of them for not doing what they swore to do on the good book. Allegiance to Kauff was not in the oath by the way you clones. Not that the oath of office really means anything to any of the political hacks we have doing the Kauff bidding.

Good morning Aberdeen. I have read and did enjoy the rabies shot comment about myself posted earlier this morning. For the record I did not get a rabies shot this year during the free rabies clinic. I did get one two years ago so I still have a year before I have to get another rabies shot. Thank you for the chuckle this morning.

Anonymous said...

Thank God Aberdeen is not in the new 12th District. Anyone read this stuff in the APP? No partisan agenda from me... Both sides are total idiots over there... Here's a few excerpts from two of the candidates that are absolutely absurd...

(GOP) Assembly-Candidate (and current Freeholder) Rob Clifton's Interview:

"Increasing the number of jobs in New Jersey is Clifton’s biggest issue ... (literally, two sentences later) ... The freeholders have cut '600 full-time, paid positions and looked at every line item' to bring down costs without a loss of services, he said."

(Wow, that's one hell of a way to make increasing the number of jobs your top priority, Rob)

(DEM) Senate-Candidate Bob Brown's Interview:

"Brown proposes taking the state income tax and the portion of the state sales tax devoted to school funding and dividing that sum per student statewide, bringing a measure of property tax relief."

(Huh?!? So... how do we pay for the things we were previously paying for with the income taxes?)

"Brown's other proposal: phase out all Garden State Parkway and New Jersey Turnpike tolls over the next two years and do away with the New Jersey Turnpike Authority."

(So, who's going to plow these roads when it snows if not the Authority that's set up to do it?)

Oh that's right, Brown doesn't commute...

"Brown, 56, was a police officer in Old Bridge, where he was shot in the line of duty. He now maintains a general law practice in the township."

(F'ckin' idiot...)

From Aberdeen NJ Life blog in the beach

Lopsided Governance in Aberdeen
I received an ad in the mail the other day from the Aberdeen Democrats promoting their candidates for Township Council. The ad suggested that the "Aberdeen Democratic Team" has proven itself by fixing roads, installing solar panels, and securing open spaces, but 3 of the 4 candidates weren't even on the Council when those projects were accomplished. What they are really telling you is that the Township is being run by the Democratic Party through the Council, whoever they happen to put in there.

Individuals should run for office, not parties.And parties ought not to be running the town; the Township Council should be in charge. I personally believe in the checks and balances that result from a two party system and would prefer that the Council was, if not balanced, then at least less lopsided. Voters simply don't have adequate access to local political decision making when one party goes into executive session, for example. Where is the give and take? The exposure of bad ideas in press releases or news leaks? Where is the corrective when things are going wrong? Voting Column 2 as the Democrats suggest in their ad won't give you those checks and balances.

There are a lot of big signs and glossy mailings being paid for by the Democratic Party this year, so the machine obviously wants to remain in total control of the Council. The Republicans have yet to make their presence known, so I suppose the Dems will sweep the Council yet again.

There is apparently no political cost to the Democrats for major projects that continue to languish - the pool club, the glass plant, and the railroad plaza. The new senior center seems to be going to a major Democratic contributor in the state. And there is no cost to the Dems for overdeveloping County Road, tapping the free public library's budget allocation, leaving the grass growing tall at our roadsides and the snow piled so high on area sidewalks that our kids have to walk in the street to get to school.

I'll be voting for sunshine on the Council and quality of life in our Township this November.

YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH said...

Look at your tax bill you idiot.

School taxes up every year and council OK'd it all.

Local municipal taxes go up every year despite the lies from the zombie like Norman Kauff soldiers.

Increase in various service fees cover secret deficits.

Tax appeal assessments = hidden big$$$ budget -.

Kauff robbing all developers at taxpayers expense under various parking lot lights or other secret and not so secret locations.

Significant numbers of school age children added into the school system at $13,800.00 each due to the Norman Kauff illegally controlled and Norman Kauff carefully orchestrated and thoroughly corrupt developmental approvals.

Norman Kauff and his corrupt P.I.L.O.T.( Payment in Lieu of Taxes) political thievery costing the school district millions.

Municipal services overwhelmed by development approvals granted corruptly by the unelected and unaccountable Norman Kauff.

Police Force at unsafe and overcompensated levels.

NEVER any real independent municipal cost analysis.

NEVER outside accounting analysis other than those connected and controlled by Norman Kauff. THE SAME CONNECTED ACCOUNTING FIRM CONTROLLED BY NORMAN KAUFF IT IS SAID HAS DONE IT FOR OVER 10 YEARS ACCORDING TO FRAUDULENT FILINGS.

The CME Engineering firm raping the community with the blessing and illegal payments to Norman Kauff.

Town lawyers handpicked by Norman Kauff who pay Norman Kauff a hefty percentage for doing nothing.

Zoning and Planning Board members and all actions and approvals illegally and corruptly controlled by Norman Kauff.

This is just some of the truth about the corrupt political leadership of Aberdeen.

SO YOU WANT THE TRUTH?

YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

THE ABOVE IS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH OF ABERDEEN.
