Millstone agreement will fund emergency services operation By MATTHEW SOCKOL Staff Writer
A
shared services agreement between Millstone Township and the Millstone Township Board of Fire Commissioners has been authorized by the Township Committee to implement a municipally funded emergency medical services (EMS) operation. During a meeting on Aug. 19, committee members authorized the agreement between the township and the fire commissioners, who are in charge of the Millstone Township Fire District. The Millstone Township Fire District operates the Millstone Township Fire Company. In June, municipal officials revealed their plan for an EMS operation funded by the municipality. They said $260,000 had
been allocated for the service in the 2020 budget. The $260,000 cost includes $200,000 for an additional contribution to the fire company, $10,000 for a down payment on an ambulance and $50,000 for other capital items. Municipal officials said they needed a plan to provide residents with timely and affordable emergency medical services. Millstone Township had an estimated population of 10,400 residents in 2019. “Once performed on a volunteer basis, EMS now needs to be funded by the municipality to ensure our citizens are receiving the care and attention they need, when they need it most,” Business Administrator Kevin Abernethy said in June. “An outsourced service was being used to perform this service in 2019. The service
that performed the function in 2019 has increased prices to a point where the municipality cannot afford to continue with the contract and, more importantly, the service provided to citizens was lacking in timeliness and quality of service. “We were paying about $9,000 a month and the provider collected the billable (services). The (provider) proposed to increase the fee to $44,000 a month and obviously, that is not a sustainable number,” Abernethy said. According to municipal officials, the advantages of the shared services agreement with the fire commissioners will be direct management, the ability to better control and forecast costs, timeliness and consistency in service, stability, increased community involvement and controlling costs for taxpayers.
The initiation of the agreement with the fire commissioners followed a decrease in personnel in the volunteer Millstone Township First Aid Squad. The decrease had been acknowledged by the Township Committee since 2016, when the first aid squad entered into a contract for ambulance services. The fire company which is overseen by the fire commissioners is comprised of volunteers and paid professionals. Committeeman Michael Kuczinski said different vendors had been used for first aid services during the past few years. “We were in a position where we have been, due to demographics and the changing of the way people did things 20 years ago, limited as far as our options in using a

New law authorizes towns, counties to issue relief bonds Gov. Phil Murphy has signed legislation (A-3791) which authorizes New Jersey’s municipalities and counties to borrow funds to cover revenue shortfalls and expenditures caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, by issuing bonds and notes. The final legislation included improvements recommended by Murphy in his prior conditional veto issued on July 30, according to a press release from the governor’s office. “The COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing economic crisis has left no corner of our state untouched,” Murphy said in the press release. “In the absence of muchneeded federal assistance, this legislation will provide an important tool to New Jersey’s municipalities and counties, allowing them to have access to the funds needed to
continue serving residents.” “Municipalities have significant fixed statutory expenses and provide essential services, which have increased as a result of the pandemic,” said Michael F. Cerra, executive director of the New Jersey State League of Municipalities. “Meanwhile local governments are experiencing significant declines in revenue during this pandemic and for the foreseeable future, most of which will not be recaptured. “This new law will provide needed flexibility to maintain essential services, control property taxes and address this unprecedented financial distress. “Our thanks to the Governor and all the legislative sponsors for partnering with the League and other interested stakehold-
ers to provide this critical financial tool,” Cerra said. “Municipalities and counties are experiencing revenue shortfalls and expense overruns due to battling COVID-19,” said Assembly Speaker Craig J. Coughlin (DMiddlesex). “All available options, including the ability to borrow funds, must be on the table if we expect our local economies to recoup losses and strengthen post-pandemic,” Coughlin said. “The public health and economic crises brought on by COVID-19 has turned our lives upside down and thrown government budgets around the state into deep uncertainty,” said Sen. Vin Gopal (D-Monmouth). “This legislation will give our local and
county governments an extra tool to help us weather this crisis with as minimal an impact as possible on vital services, programs and taxpayers,” Gopal said. In his conditional veto, Murphy recommended that borrowing would be best accomplished through existing and well established local budgetary and debt structures instead of a new, additional funding mechanism, according to the press release. By amending local borrowing laws, the final legislation allows counties and towns to issue five-year special emergency notes for a broad swath of COVID-19 related costs. The final legislation also expands the special emergency mechanism to permit adoption of a special emergency to address certified COVID-19 related deficits in operations, according to the press release.

Municipal court changes allow for case resolution without appearance Members of the public can now ask a prosecutor to review their matters and may be able to resolve their case without having to appear in person, under a recent change to municipal court operations in New Jersey. The Judiciary’s Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) program, which started in midMay in approximately 30 municipal courts, allows court users to dispute a charge and provide information or evidence to municipal prosecutors online, according to a press release from the New Jersey Courts.

“These changes are part of a larger effort to make our municipal court system more efďŹ cient and more accessible,â€? New Jersey Supreme Court Chief Justice Stuart Rabner said. “Court users should not have to ďŹ nd childcare or take a day off from work to travel to the courthouse to speak to a prosecutor and try to resolve trafďŹ c offenses or routine matters,â€? he said. The ODR program applies to 37 trafďŹ c offenses, such as speeding, failure to have an insurance card, or failure to yield, where Editorial: 732-358-5200 Fax: 732-385-8868 Email: news@njexaminer.com Sports Email:

defendants commonly provide additional documentation and seek a reduced charge before pleading guilty, according to the press release. Court users can make their requests for review to the municipal prosecutor through NJMC Direct. After reviewing the case, the prosecutor can offer a lesser charge or decline to change the charge. If a lesser charge is accepted, the matter will be reviewed by a judge for approval. If approved, the defendant does not need to go to court, according to the press release. If the prosecutor declines to offer a lesser charge, or the judge does not approve the new charge, a hearing date is scheduled for the defendant to appear remotely. Additional courts will offer the program over the next several weeks as the program expands statewide, according to the press release. Under a second change that went into
effect on April 27, 400 minor offenses were added to the Statewide Violations Bureau Schedule. The new offenses include some minor trafďŹ c and parking matters, as well as state Fish and Game and Weights and Measures violations. For these, defendants can plead guilty and pay online without having to go to court, according to the press release. In one of the Judiciary’s ďŹ rst actions to reduce municipal court appearances to reduce the spread of COVID-19, the Supreme Court on March 16 relaxed court rules that had required only those individuals with “undue hardshipâ€? to plead guilty by mail to certain offenses in municipal court. Plea-by-mail does not apply to serious offenses, including those resulting in the likelihood of a driver’s license suspension, jail time or community service, according to the press release.

Mutants Can Wait By Paul Hall
A
traumatic event leads to Dani Moonstar (Blu Hunt) waking up handcuffed to a bed. But where is this teenage girl? And how did she get there? Dani has been placed in a hospital along with a small number of young patients. Dr. Cecilia Reyes (Alice Braga) is treating all five of the residents in the hopes they will soon be released. The other residents are obviously mutants, albeit youthful ones; they know their powers, and their treatment is all about controlling them and avoiding the potential devastation they are able to unleash on society. Rahne (Maisie Williams), Illyana (Anya Taylor-Joy), Sam (Charlie Heaton) and Roberto (Henry Zaga) have mixed feelings about the newest resident. While they are all working to control their powers, the others are surprised to know that
Dani has no idea what kind of power she possesses. As Dani makes friends with Rahne and enemies with Illyana, her journey of discovery begins and it soon becomes clear that this facility is more than a hospital and that the residents are not free to leave. But what is going on, and what does the future hold for this pack of mutants? Only time will tell if they can control their powers and control their destinies. The New Mutants is a long-anticipated movie. I can see from early on that there is something at the core of the film to be excited about. Unfortunately, it feels wholly unnecessary as a big-screen release. Sure, there are some big action moments that are meant to scare and startle, but those sequences felt disjointed from the rest of the film. Instead of a seamless introduction to these characters, we get limited moments to explore who they are and expanded moments of the five hanging out in situations as varied as therapy sessions and late-night shenanigans.
Maisie Williams, Henry Zaga, Blu Hunt, Charlie Heaton and Anya Taylor-Joy in The New Mutants.
While the film progressed, I never felt satisfied with the amount of meaty facts revealed about the characters, their backstories and motivations. Instead there were allusions to days gone by, and a lack of detail to grab on to about who they have become. It’s probably a good thing that I didn’t have the expectations that many had for The New Mutants. I felt disappointed by the lost opportunity to establish new characters for future generations. This film should have been an exciting and hip start for a new set of heroes, and instead
it felt like a subpar television movie that would have had me reaching for a remote if I were watching at home. I would love to endorse this film as a reason to get back into theaters, but unless you are invested in individuals within the film, it can wait.

Why wasn’t there room for one more ‘Ozark’ nominee? Question: [Spoiler Alert] How could you watch Ozark’s “Fire Pink” episode, with Tom Pelphrey in the taxi, and not just hand him an Emmy? What are the odds he’s still alive? —Cheryl Matt Roush: Tom Pelphrey is alive and well, but I’m afraid the same can’t be said for Ben, the tragic character he played in what has to be seen as a breakthrough performance. I agree that he should have made the Emmy cut, but with multiple nominees from Succession and The Morning Show in the supporting actor category among other Emmy favorites, he wasn’t able to get traction against such high-profile competition. It’s a shame, because his arc was arguably the most powerful in Ozark‘s terrific third season. And it’s not like the Emmy voters are ignoring Ozark, which got 18 nominations this year. This oversight stings, though, because this was his only shot. I look for-
ward to seeing what opportunities come his way after this memorable role. Comment: Recommended companion reading for Star Trek: Below Decks: John Scalzi’s Redshirts. You can thank me later. —Jon D Matt Roush: I’ll thank you now. Shortly after I saw this recommendation, I downloaded it and it’s now high on my list of digital reading.

Legislation supports protecting judges’ information Managing Editor
State legislation that would, if enacted into law, prohibit the posting of addresses and telephone numbers of judges and members of the law enforcement community is receiving support. Assembly Bill A-1649, known as the Daniel Anderl Bill, is named for Anderl, the 20-year-old son of U.S. District Judge Esther Salas who was killed at his family’s North Brunswick, Middlesex County, home on July 19. Salas’ husband, Mark Anderl, who is a criminal defense attorney, was seriously injured in the attack carried out by suspect Roy Den Hollander, who allegedly targeted the family because of his disdain for Salas and her role as a federal judge, according to reports. Salas sits on the bench in the District of New Jersey, Newark. In a video message Salas released after her son’s death, she said she understands judges’ decisions will be scrutinized and she said the job requires judges to make tough calls that can lead to people being angry and upset, but she said it should be hard for those who target judges to track them. “What we cannot accept is when we are forced to live in fear of our lives,” she said in the video. Salas said personal information like her home address and the church she attends should not be readily available on the internet. She mentioned Hollander having a “dossier” about her family.
“My son’s death cannot be in vain, which is why I am begging those in power to do something, to help my brothers and sisters on the bench. Now, more than ever, we need to identify a solution to keep the lives of federal judges private,” she said in the video. Salas said she wants to commence a national dialogue and work collaboratively to find a solution to safeguard the privacy of federal judges. “We can’t sit back and wait for another tragedy to strike,” she said in the video. The bill, dated Aug. 13 and sponsored by Majority Conference Leader Annette Quijano (D-Union), prohibits individuals, state and local agencies, and businesses from posting or publishing on the internet the home addresses or unpublished home telephone numbers of judges, or state, county or municipal prosecutors regardless of whether those people are retired or in the workforce. The bill would amend a current law that already prohibits such disclosure for law enforcement officers. Specifically, the bill makes it a crime for a person to knowingly post or publish the home address or unpublished telephone number of a judge or prosecutor, regardless of whether those people are retired or in the workforce, or their spouse or child. If a person recklessly violates the prohibition it would be a crime of the fourth degree. A fourth degree crime is punishable by a prison term of up to 18 months, a fine of up to $10,000, or both. If a person purposefully violates the prohibition it
would be a crime of the third degree. A third degree crime is punishable by a prison term of three to five years, a fine of up to $15,000, or both. The bill defines “disclose” as soliciting, selling, manufacturing, giving, providing, lending, trading, mailing, delivering, transferring, publishing, distributing, circulating, disseminating, presenting, exhibiting, advertising or offering. The bill was pre-filed for introduction in the 2018-19 session pending technical review. As reported, the bill includes the changes required by technical review, which has been performed. North Brunswick Mayor Francis Womack spoke in support of the bill, saying, “In a recent statement, Judge Salas implored us not to let Daniel’s death be in vain. “This terrible event should serve as a catalyst for adopting the necessary measures to ensure that members of the judiciary receive the protection and security our society owes them. “I officially support and urge the Legislature to quickly act on A-1649. This bill prohibits the posting of the addresses and phone numbers of members of judiciary and law enforcement community without their consent. “A-1649 is a positive step in making some of our more high-profile citizens less vulnerable to individuals and groups who would use personal information to do harm. We have got to make every effort to protect those who protect us. Perhaps it is fitting to refer to such a measure as the Daniel Anderl Bill,” Womack said.

Contract awarded for repairs to Allentown municipal annex By MARK ROSMAN Managing Editor
ALLENTOWN – The Borough Council has awarded a contract to Trenton Roofing and Siding to replace the roof on the Allentown municipal annex. Council members took the action during a recent meeting and authorized Mayor Thomas Fritts to sign the $7,695 contract with the company. The borough has received a $7,200 grant from the Monmouth County Histori-
cal Commission to help pay for the work. The Allentown Historic Preservation Review Commission (HPRC) received the funding for a roof replacement and trim repair on the municipal annex. Borough officials said after the roof has been replaced, they will turn their attention to the building’s interior and begin to seek grants that could help to pay for the next phase of repairs. According to information provided by the HPRC, the building at 14 Church St. has a history that dates back to 1845, when
its current second floor was built at ground level by the Episcopalian congregation as a church. The building included a small steeple with a cross on top. In 1869, the building was sold to the Catholic congregation to serve as the first Catholic church in town. In 1898, Allentown officials purchased the lot on Church Street where the Catholic church is located for $500. Officials approved selling 54 feet of that lot (No. 14) to Charles A. Spaulding so he could build the present house at 16 Church St.

In 1917, the original 1.5-story church building, being used as a borough hall and office, was raised one story, permitting the Hope Fire Company to keep its engines on the first floor. At that time, the rock-faced concrete block walls were added, making the structure a two-story building with Borough Hall and offices on the second floor. In 1937, an addition was made to the north side of the present building to accommodate a used ambulance, donated by Dr. Farmer, to serve residents. In 1946, the fire company moved to new headquarters across the street and the entire first floor at 14 Church St. became the location of the Allentown First Aid Squad. In 1975, borough offices moved to the former space used by the Allentown Police Department, until all borough services were consolidated at 8 N. Main St. The Monmouth County Historical Commission is dedicated to remembering the past and preserving history for residents and visitors to learn about the county’s past, according to a press release. The projects eligible for funding are preservation, restoration or rehabilitation of historic structures which are owned by nonprofit organizations or municipalities and are accessible to the public. The grant program covers structural work for projects commonly known as “bricks and mortar” endeavors, according to the press release. Allentown resident John Fabiano is the executive director of the Monmouth County Historical Commission.

fully volunteer (ambulance) service,” Kuczinski said. “We did not have the volunteer base (with the first aid squad) to continue the same performance we had in the past. It was a matter of not having enough manpower, not enough volunteers to be able to commit to the hours and time required. “We have two things to our advantage by using the fire company” for first aid services, Kuczinski said. “One, we have the professional, dedicated service we know and have trusted for many years. And two, the (fire commissioners) are not looking to make a profit. This is going to cost money, but it’s definitely the lowest cost option we have.” Mayor Fiore Masci thanked the members of the first aid squad who provided volunteer EMS services to Millstone Township. “We have a first squad in town and the members have done an outstanding job to the best of their ability with what they have. “I want to make sure we are also mindful of thanking them for the dedicated years of service they put in and do not lose sight of the people who have been here for many years. “As times are changing, unfortunately, volunteers become less and less (involved). However, we are committed to making sure our first aid service is paramount,” Masci said.

ON THE ROAD PETER PERROTTA
2020 Mercedes Benz CLS450 4matic Coupe
W
hen you work selling Mercedes Benz automobiles for a living, it’s akin to being a kid in a candy store. Everywhere you look there’s plenty of luxuriously expensive cars to look at, feel and drive. More than 10 years ago, I exclusively sold Mercedes, working at one of the more prestigious dealerships in South Jersey. As part of our sales training – to get superior product knowledge – it was expected of us Peter Perrotta to drive each and every model in an effort to familiarize ourselves with that car so that when we took our clients on test drives we would be prepared for the multitude of questions customers have when considering whether or not to purchase that car. I must admit that even back then – and to this day – the Mercedes Benz CLS Coupe was one of my absolute favorite vehicles to drive. So I can honestly say that when I was scheduled to test drive and review the 2020 Mercedes Benz CLS450 4matic Coupe, it brought a broad smile to my face. It also revived a lot of memories from my car selling days at the dealership. After spending a week behind the wheel of this luxurious beauty of a car, my opinion hasn’t changed. It remains one of the finest production automobiles on the market – albeit it doesn’t come cheaply. Marketed from Mercedes as a four-door coupe, the CLS was originally designed in 2001 by noted designer Michael Fink. Fink was also noted for styling the first generation CLK, the C class sport coupe and the Maybach 57 and 62. The first thing one notices about the CLS Coupe is that it isn’t a coupe at all. While its named and badged as a coupe, it actually is a four-door vehicle that simply looks like a coupe due to its aggressively low stance and swooping and curved exterior design. In its overview for its review of this model for 2020, the folks at Car and Driver had this to say: “The CLS-class is a study in contradictions, but one thing that’s clear is its commitment to luxury and performance. It has four doors, yet Mercedes markets it as a
2020 Mercedes Benz CLS450 4matic Coupe
coupe (you can thank its fastback styling for that choice).” Once you get past doing the double take of “Wow, this is a four-door coupe” and you slide yourself into the opulent cabin inside, your senses are immediately overwhelmed with the simply luxurious feel of this car. If I was forced to give an analogy, it’s much like trying on a pair of soft hand made Spanish leather boots. No one has to tell you that there’s quality in this product. You just feel it right away. The soft leather contour seats immediately grab you when you slip into this car and the swooping design and ergonomics are such that you almost become one with the car. All around you is luxury at this point – from the piano lacquer trim to the sleek and shiny infotainment screen and the old, but new styled dashboard clock, luxury abounds. After you get done gasping, and finally reach for that push button start, the smoothness and powerfulness of the ride of this beast doesn’t disappoint. This car is at once luxurious but at the same time, quick, extremely powerful and very athletic. I took my CLS tester on a bit of a road
trip to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where when you get out on the remote stretches of the Pennsylvania Turnpike the speed limit shoots up to 70 mph. Most motorists are cruising along at more than 80 mph out there. At 80 mph and upward, this car is barely breaking a sweat or even breathing hard. This car is most definitely a vehicle that one can push to high speeds and still feel extremely confident that you are in full control at all times. The 2020 CLS450 4matic Coupe is powered by a smooth 3.0 liter turbo charged inline six cylinder engine that is paired with a 48 volt hybrid assist system Mercedes calls EQ boost. This winning combination provides output of 362 horsepower and 369 pound feet of torque. The nine speed transmission works well with this EQ engine set up as well. In real time, on the road, driving there isn’t much this car can’t do. Of course, all of this fine elegance, power and athleticism doesn’t come cheap. There is a price to be paid. My tester model carried a base price of $72,450. However, after adding a whole host of expensive options and adding in the destination charge, the bottom line sticker price comes in at $99,125.
The car I drove for a week had an exterior color called “designo Arabian Gray” – which I wasn’t all that fond of. I would have preferred a simple black or white. The charge for the paint option on this car is a breath taking $4,900. Some of the other option packages on this car included: $5,500 for a designo interior styling package that includes soft nappa leather seats and a suede headliner; $2,250 for a driver assistance package; $1,320 for the contoured massaging front seats; $1,450 for a wireless charging system for your phone and a whole lot more. For a vehicle with this much power, the gas mileage is rather impressive. The EPA gas mileage rating on this car comes in at 26 miles per gallon overall – with 30 mpg in highway driving and 23 in city driving. The average estimated annual fuel cost for driving a CLS comes in at $1,900 per year as this car consumes about 3.9 gallons of gas per every 100 miles driven. This vehicle was not crash test rated by the government yet. Peter Perrotta’s On The Road column appears regularly. Comments and suggestions are welcomed.

State asks residents to help destroy spotted lanternfly New Jersey Department of Agriculture Secretary Douglas Fisher has announced information and instructions for residents who encounter the spotted lanternfly as the department continues to receive calls about the exotic invasive insect. The department is partnering with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal Plant and Health Inspection Service (USDA-APHIS) to curb the ongoing spread of the spotted lanternfly, according to a press release from the New Jersey Department of Agriculture. “We have been working diligently to slow the advance of this bug,” Fisher said. “We are targeting areas where severe infestations have been confirmed and we also encourage residents to destroy the spotted lanternfly if possible when they see it. It will take a combined effort to help keep this pest from spreading.” While the spotted lanternfly is no threat to humans or animals, it is known to feed on 70 types of plants and trees. It is native to China and South Korea, but arrived in the United State in Berks County, Pa., on a shipment in 2014. The species has been advancing ever since, causing Pennsylvania to have 26 counties currently under quarantine, according to the press release. The New Jersey counties under quarantine are Warren, Hunterdon, Mercer, Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, Salem and Somerset. The spotted lanternfly is a plant hopper and can only fly short distances. However, it is an excellent hitchhiker and has been known to ride on any kind of transportation. The department asks that anyone who travels in a quarantined county do a quick inspection of their vehicle for the spotted lanternfly before leaving, according to the press release. The New Jersey Department of Agriculture and USDA-APHIS have crews

throughout the state that are working to treat areas where infestations have been reported. If a resident has an infestation and would like to treat their own property, a list of options can be found at https://bit. ly/3eIuTEi. Using items such as sticky traps are not recommended as they may harm other wildlife. While the spotted lanternfly is currently in its full adult stage, it will begin laying egg masses in early to mid-September. The gray looking egg masses can be scraped off, double bagged and thrown away. The egg masses can also be placed into alcohol, bleach or hand sanitizer to kill them. An instructional video on how to destroy the egg masses is available at https://bit. ly/3fMIw52 Residents outside of the quarantine counties can report the exact address of sightings of the spotted ;anternfly by emailing Slf-plantindustry@ag.nj.gov or by calling 609-406-6943.
