County announces testing site expansion, provides COVID updates
M
onmouth County officials have announced the expansion of the county’s COVID-19 free testing program and provided COVID-19 updates. “Beginning on Dec. 8, the county will be operating mobile testing twice per week, specifically for healthcare workers and first responders,” Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone said during a Dec. 2 press conference. “We are incredibly grateful to all of our front-line workers and all that they do to keep Monmouth County residents safe and healthy and we want to do whatever we can to support them. “The Monmouth County Health Department (MCHD) will administer the tests and perform contact tracing for anyone who tests positive. MCHD will continue to operate the county’s COVID-19 testing for all county residents four days per week,” Arnone said. The mobile testing will be offered in four municipalities: Ocean Township, Manalapan, Middletown and Wall Township. The sites will be open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and there will be 100 tests available at each site, according to a press release from the county. The times and locations for all COVID-19 testing sites will be posted on www.
visitmonmouth.com and on the county’s Facebook and Twitter pages. “This pandemic has affected all of us, but it has placed our first responders directly in harm’s way,” Monmouth County Sheriff Shaun Golden said. “They risk their lives every day as they respond to critical incidents to protect the residents of Monmouth County and we need to support them by providing expedited testing through the mobile Field Communications Unit. “This effort, led by the Monmouth County Sheriff’s Office, the Monmouth County Health Department and the Monmouth County Board of Freeholders, will help ensure our first responders’ health and well-being and provide them with peace of mind as they work on the front lines,” Golden said. Freeholder Deputy Director Susan M. Kiley provided an update on the anticipated COVID-19 vaccine. “We could expect vaccinations to be shipped to New Jersey within the next three to four weeks,” Kiley said. “Vaccines will be distributed to hospitals first before local health departments and will be administered to healthcare and frontline workers before the general public.

Council takes first step in creating administrator’s position By MARK ROSMAN Managing Editor
M
embers of the Allentown Borough Council have introduced an ordinance that will, if adopted, create the new position of borough administrator. Council President Rob Strovinsky, Councilman John A. Elder III, Councilman Michael Drennan, Councilwoman Martha Johnson and Councilman Dan Payson voted “yes” on a motion to introduce the ordinance during a meeting that was conducted via Zoom on Nov. 24. Councilwoman Angela Anthony was absent from the meeting. A public hearing on the ordinance has been scheduled for the council’s Dec. 15
meeting, which will also be conducted via Zoom. Information on how to access the meeting is provided on the borough’s website. Asked why borough officials are taking this step now, Mayor Thomas Fritts told the Examiner that “with so many initiatives and new programs and projects taking place in Allentown, it was time for a change to streamline municipal operations for the 21st century. “In short, between the governing body’s aggressive agenda and the ever-increasing requirements placed upon the borough by the state and its agencies, the time has come for Allentown to be professionally managed with a full-time, central admin-
istrative position to coordinate all of the borough’s operations. “That is, to meet our residents’ needs, our borough will greatly benefit from one point of contact, and especially one on-site decision-maker to handle day-to-day operations while the mayor and council members focus on their true charge: legislation and policy making. “Most other municipalities in New Jersey are operated by a central administrator, or a manager in certain cases, and we believe it is time for Allentown to join that modern model of municipal management,” Fritts said. The mayor said he is not certain if Allentown has ever had an administrator, but
he said there has not been one since 1972 when the current municipal code was adopted. Asked if there are any current municipal employees who could qualify to work as Allentown’s administrator, Fritts said, “We cannot discuss personnel or hiring matters until there is a successful candidate under state law.” In other business during the Nov. 24 meeting, Fritts offered his congratulations to Elder and to Erica Torsiello, who won three-year terms on the Borough Council in the Nov. 3 municipal election.

Grandsons will honor relative with distillery in Keyport
W
hen Soviet Union General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev issued an anti-alcohol campaign in the mid-1980s that entailed a soft prohibition and subsequently raised the price of vodka, wine and beer, the new legislation, which was similar to America’s liquor prohibition in 1920, ignited an era of bootlegging and hoarding of supplies. As individuals throughout the Soviet Union sought new ways to brew and distill liquor at home, one citizen, Oleg Pichenikin, developed a spirit recipe from split peas that became popular among his friends and colleagues. Nearly four decades later, Pichenikin’s grandsons are following in his footsteps. Bound by ancestral history and craftsmanship, twin brothers Aleks and Maks Zhdanov are honoring their grandfather’s legacy by bringing his split pea spirit, tied in with elements of Soviet prohibition culture and themes, to Keyport with a new distillery they plan to open this winter. The name of the business, 3BR, which stands for “Three Bottles or Riot,” draws influence from Gorbachev’s dry law which enforced a ration of two bottles of liquor per person right around the time Aleks’ and Maks’ parents were planning to get married in Russia. The new business at 7 Main St., Keyport, is expected to house a distillery production side and a tasting room which will feature cocktails and bottle sales. The distillery is also expected to house a distinctive production process which includes a centrifugal sifter to help work with the tricky split pea material, and a hydroponics setup to grow botanicals and garnishes for the bar. The business has been an enduring vision for the 27-year-old Zhdanov brothers. Aleks Zhdanov recalled that the idea was born in 2014 from an interest in brewing ginger beer in his dorm room at Rutgers University alongside brother Maks and roommate Robert Mattera. “We started to get into ginger beer during college and Rob would bring it back to the room, which started a craze for us to make our own,” Aleks Zhdanov said. “We bought a small home-brewing kit and used online instructions to make our own, but it tasted repulsive. It turned out so bad that we almost abandoned the idea of brewing for a year. We had no idea what we were doing.” Although the trio’s initial efforts in home-brewing proved to be futile, they revisited the idea about one year later.
Left to right, Aleks Zhdanov, Yulia Kravchin, Maks Zhdanov, Robert Mattera and Will Proulx pose in their Soviet attire as they get set to open their new distillery in Keyport this winter.
“This time, with a bit more research, we started to have better and better results,” Aleks Zhdanov said. Revived with dexterity for crafting new recipes and ideas for spirits, Aleks said that right around the time he and his brother embarked on this skill, their mother Yuliana informed them of their grandfather’s history in producing homemade liquor. Having grown up in the aftermath of World War II, Pichenikin left school to join the workforce and grew up with limited resources, but he overcame those obstacles with his creativeness, the twins said. The brothers said that before he tried his hand at liquor, their grandfather built various items such as a machine that could tap a phone. They said he would listen in on government telecommunications as a hobby. Aleks Zhdanov said Pichenikin was eventually apprehended for that act, but instead of conviction, his ingenuity landed him a government position where he rose through the ranks to become a lead engineer responsible for building and maintaining elevators in confidential locations throughout the country. When the soft prohibition took effect under the Gorbachev regime, Pichenikin did not hesitate to put his skill for innovation to work. The Zhdanov brothers learned their grandfather used a recipe that had been handed down in the family based on split peas, resulting from their abundance during a time when other ingredients typically used for alcohol production, such as grain

and sugar, were scarce. Surprised, yet impressed by the news of their grandfather’s roots in bootlegging, the brothers formed a business plan for a distillery centered around those stories to pay homage to him. “We found out our grandfather had this history,” Maks Zhdanov said. “The best part about this is being able to honor him. “We were never able to meet him because he passed away when we were really young. He was an amazing man and influenced a lot of people around him, so we thought this would be a great way to pay tribute to him and create our own family legacy with this business. “We are not in it to make a quick buck. We don’t want to make this place a quick cash grab in any way. Anything we do, it’s all specific to honoring our grandfather and that time period,” he said. Aleks Zhdanov said he spent years studying the craft of brewing and distillation and has earned certifications in the field. He will serve as 3BR’s head distiller. Maks Zhdanov, the chief financial officer, earned a double master’s degree in international business and finance prior to the distillery’s inception. He worked as a business analyst and as a senior financial analyst and said he learned how to run a company from a financial standpoint. As the idea gained traction, the brothers recruited several friends with different specializations, but all of whom were tied together by Rutgers University. This team included former college roommate and now botanicalist Robert Mattera; Chief
Marketing Officer Yulia Kravchin; and Chief Production Officer Will Proulx. With assistance from family members, friends and multiple investors, the group raised the necessary capital to turn their vision into an attainable goal. As they head down the homestretch toward opening day, the 3BR team members said the business will be ready this winter for customers to enjoy a unique drinking experience, absorb some Soviet history and taste Pichenikin’s secret spirit in addition to vodka, gin and whiskey, all of which will be distilled in-house. “We want everyone coming in to be slapped in the face with the Soviet character,” Aleks Zhdanov said. “I want everyone to be amazed by it, but to realize some of the misconceptions they may have been led to believe about the Soviet Union. The country was viewed as an enemy during the Cold War through U.S. propaganda, but this is actually a fascinating time period with a cool history.” The operators are offering memberships that include certain perks. Maks Zhdanov said, “Supporting 3BR before we open in this way means a great deal to the team. I really believe the membership is worth it and it will only get better as we add more perks and ways to be part of our family.” For more information, send an email to info@3brdistillery.com or visit www.3brdistillery.com

MCHD will continue to work with the county’s OfďŹ ce of Emergency Management to establish points of distribution for the vaccine and coordinate vaccine distribution with the state Department of Health. “Even though vaccine distribution is imminent, the health department continues to stress the importance of preventative actions the public can take, including social distancing, wearing face coverings and washing hands frequently,â€? Kiley said. “Public health ofďŹ cials also urge the public to answer the phone when a contact tracer calls. Contact tracing is a vital part of reducing the spread of COVID-19 throughout Monmouth County communities,â€? she said.

Warehouse plan approved By MATTHEW SOCKOL Staff Writer
MILLSTONE – The Millstone Township Planning Board has approved an applicant’s proposal to consolidate three lots into one lot and to construct a 132,930-squarefoot warehouse/office building, On Nov. 10, representatives of Scannell Properties appeared before the board and presented a plan to consolidate three lots at 801/851 Farrington Blvd. and 1 DeBaun Road into one lot and to construct a warehouse with office space at that location. Attorney Kenneth Pape presented the application. The property is in Millstone Township’s Planned Commercial Development (PCD) zone and is bounded by Route 33 to the south, DeBaun Road to the east, Farrington Boulevard to the north and the Xtreme Machines dealership to the west. Pape said the building will not have direct access to or from Route 33. The access points to the building will be internal on the site. DeBaun Road intersects Route 33. The building will be 132,930 square feet in size, with two separate office spaces totaling 7,700 square feet. Each office will have its own exterior access. The size of the property is slightly more than 12 acres. The warehouse space will encompass 125,230 square feet and have a 32-foot clearance. In the center of the building
along one wall, a fire pump room and an electrical room were proposed, each with their own exterior door. A total of 29 roll-down trailer doors were proposed along the building’s northern wall and two drive-in trailer access points were proposed in the northeast and northwest corners of the building, according to the application. “The building is intended to be a handsome, well-designed building,” Pape said. “It is intended to be one (the applicant) would be proud of. It has considerable architectural features and the architectural features around the entrance are prominently visible from the Route 33 corridor.” Following a discussion of the technical aspects of the plan, the board members granted the applicant approval to consolidate the three existing lots into one lot and to construct the warehouse/office building on the new lot. Scannell Properties sought variances for the building’s height (37 feet were requested where a maximum of 35 feet is permitted) and lot coverage (25% was requested where a maximum of 20% is permitted. Both variances were granted by the board members. Representatives of the applicant said the warehouse does not have a tenant. They said the building will be constructed with the expectation that a tenant will eventually use the warehouse and office space.

Oh Holy St. Jude, Apostle and Martyr, great in virtue and rich in miracles, near Kinsman of Jesus Christ, faithful intercessor of all who invoke your special patronage in time of need, to you I have recourse from the depth of my heart and humbly beg to whom God has given such great power to come to my assistance. Help me in my present and urgent petition. In return, I promise to make your name known and cause you to be invoked. Say three Our Fathers, three Hail Marys and Glorias. Publication must be promised. St. Jude pray for us all who invoke your aid. Amen. This Novena has never been known to fail. This Novena must be said for 9 consecutive days. Thank you,
