Social justice takes center stage with protest in Community Park

By ANDREW HARRISON Staff Writer

Princeton resident Shariese Katrell wanted to make certain black and brown voices were being heard when she organized a social justice rally in Princeton on June 13.

The social justice rally spearheaded by Katrell was the latest protest to take place in the municipality. The rally was on the grounds of Community Park South and was a part of a weekend of protests continuing across the state honoring the lives of of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor.

“I felt that black voices were not being heard. I hope people took away from today that black people and minorities have been marginalized and that systemic racism still lives in communities, especially Princeton,” Katrell said. “I hope residents realize neighbors are diverse and we live in a diverse community. We should be looking at each other as human beings. We should not judge anyone. We just should not judge on people’s economic background or their race.”

Katrell’s rally focused on a call to action for police reforms, getting to know neighbors and urging attendees to vote in the

coming primary and general elections.

“Everyone here should take the time to vote and vote for change.

Because a federal bill needs to be created for police officers where it is three strikes and they’re out and they cannot be rehired again,” she said. “I see myself as a future political activist in that area. Dem-

onstrations are key as we push forward.”

Experiences were discussed and explained as speeches were heard by attendees gathered around the park benches. Close to a hundred people attended the rally at Community Park South ranging in age, race and nationalities.

“I feel like I have to do more

than I am doing to support my brothers and sisters who are being oppressed in every way. I hope more demonstrations take place all the way into November,” said Monica Gallagher of Skillman.

“For me I am listening to my brothers and sisters in a way that I haven’t and I am reaching out to hear their stories so personally

and intimately. I hope the community is also listening.”

Katrell was not approved for a march down the streets of Princeton, so instead protesters would shout “No Justice, No Peace” and “Black Lives Matter” as they marched around the sitting area in the park.

“They refused to let me march in the street but I did not let them stop me. I still reached out the the township for a permit because I wanted to do this correctly, not illegally, so there would not be stigma with a black Princeton woman organizing something like this,” she added. “I feel we are at a small point of change we still have a long way to go, because there are still issues of hate, privilege and power even in Princeton.

We all have to look at people as human.”

Attendees included individuals and families not just in Princeton but surrounding townships such as West Windsor Township, Montgomery Township and even Morris Plains.

“I felt like this was the right place to be. I hope we move forward as one nation and one people,” said Greg Boliti of Morris Plains. “I hope the demonstrations like today and across the country can bring about positive change.”

Three candidates vie for Democratic nomination for general election

By LEA KAHN Staff Writer

From how to help the business community to recover from the recent economic downturn to how to create housing that is affordable for the middle class, three wouldbe Princeton Council candidates offered their thoughts at a June 11 candidates forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters of the Princeton Area.

Incumbent Princeton Council members David Cohen and Leticia Fraga and political newcomer Dina Shaw will square off in the July 7 Democratic Party primary to seek the party’s nod to run for two open seats on the council. The two winners will become the de facto Princeton Council members, because the Republican Party is not fielding candidates in the Nov. 3 general election.

Cohen and Fraga are completing their first terms on the Princeton Council, and Shaw is making her first run for elected office. The term is for three years.

Asked what they would do to foster a viable Central Business District and which has seen its share of vacant storefronts, each candidate offered a slightly different view of the issue.

Shaw said it is important to look at Princeton as a whole. She pointed to the need to market the community and “to make sure the world knows what have in this town.” She suggested looking into the future and thinking about the town would look like in 10 years.

Shaw also would like to ensure that there is affordable housing for

low- and middle-income households and for senior citizens. Free WiFi would help the businesses because they need to have an online presence. Better public transportation is needed, too.

Fraga, who sits on the Economic Development Committee, agreed and said the committee is working on much of what Shaw had suggested. While the committee has heard from business owners in the Central Business District, the voices of micro-businesses – especially in the Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood – need to be heard, she said.

The possibility of an economic development manager has been mentioned, Fraga said. The Princeton Council also had been working on a sign ordinance and on a permit parking system for employees and neighborhood residents before the COVID-19 pandemic struck.

Cohen said that in the COVID-19 era, the challenge will be to maintain social distancing in the commercial district as businesses begin to open up and outdoor dining is permitted. It is easier to do so in the residential neighborhoods.

He also said that in the long term, creating affordable housing above

the stores and businesses in the Central Business District and in the small business node on Route 206, north of Cherry Hill Road, would be helpful. The residential units would supply the businesses with potential customers, he said.

On the issue of the Princeton Police Department, the candidates were asked if there is more that the police department could do to assess its performance, training and discipline to further eliminate racial, gender and ethnic bias in its interactions with the community.

“It is hard for me to imagine what more they can do,” Cohen said.

There is an early warning system in place that tracks an officer’s use of force, complaints and inappropriate interactions with the community so that steps may be taken to correct the officer’s behavior, he said.

There has been some talk about getting information – on a neighborhood by neighborhood basis – about the presence of police, Cohen said.

There is a perception that there is a greater police presence in the Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood than in other neighborhoods, he said.

Fraga agreed with Cohen that the Princeton Police Department is

“pretty good.” Police Chief Nicholas Sutter is responsive to suggestions about how the police department could do better. If suggestions or recommendations are offered, they are often implemented.

It starts at the top and with the recruitment of new police officers, Fraga said. When directives and policies are handed out, officers must be trained to understand and follow them, she said. The officers are not just handed a piece of paper with new directives and policies.

Shaw said that her philosophy would be to re-imagine what policing could look like in Princeton, given the turmoil over the past few weeks involving police nationwide.

The Princeton Police Department is an “incredibly important part of the community” and it needs to be part of the community, she said.

Shaw said she would work with Sutter, the police chief, to figure out what the officers do for the town, and whether they are trained in all areas. Do they do everything they are trained to do, or is extra training or extra help needed under some circumstances, she said.

The candidates also were asked to address the recurring issue of how

to make single-family homes more affordable for the middle class – such as a review of the zoning ordinance – and what is standing in the way of such a review.

Fraga said officials have discussed the issue, and “as far as doing something, that is something we are working on.” Some neighborhoods would not welcome possible solutions, such as duplexes or multifamily housing because of the character of the neighborhood, “but in my opinion, it should all be fair.”

Shaw said a review of the zoning ordinance would be a top priority, if she were to be elected to the Princeton Council. There are “interesting ways to design multifamily housing,” she said. It is exciting and it is something that the town needs to do in an orderly, timely fashion, she said.

Cohen said there is nothing standing in the way of a review of the zoning ordinance and in fact, an ordinance is set to be introduced at the council’s June 15 meeting that would make it easier to create an accessory dwelling unit – a second, smaller housing unit – in an existing single-family home or in a garage on the property.

Johnson Park School amphitheater named for principal

By LEA KAHN Staff Writer

Robert Ginsberg has been described as the “heart and soul” of the Johnson Park School, where he has served as the principal for more than two decades.

To honor Ginsberg, who is moving over to the Valley Road administration building, the elementary schools’ amphitheater and outdoor teaching space is being named the Robert Ginsberg Amphitheater.

The Princeton Public Schools Board of Education agreed to name the amphitheater for Ginsberg at its June 9 meeting. The board had been asked to name it for him by the Johnson Park School PTO. Ginsberg is expected to be formally appointed to become the act-

ing assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction while the school board seeks a permanent replacement for Annie Kosek, who is retiring from the position June 30.

“Dr. Ginsberg will leave our beloved school in just a few weeks,” Johnson Park School PTO co-presidents Maria Mauarer and Lisa Robinson wrote to the school board.

“Dr. G. is the heart and soul of Johnson Park School and has served the JP community for 21 years. He is not just the glue, but the very fabric that has made JP what it is today,” Mauarer and Robinson wrote.

“Dr. G. embodies our district beliefs and is a champion of equity and a force of good. He continues to instill a love of learning as he strives to make an impact on our children’s

lives,” they wrote.

“He knows every child and works tirelessly to leave no youngster behind. He will only be a phone call away, but he will be missed more than we can imagine. His foundation and legacy will continue to echo through the halls of JP for a very long time,” Mauarer and Robinson wrote.

Ginsberg, who was surprised to learn that the amphitheater and outdoor teaching space are being named for him, thanked the school board.

“I am unable to say anything now,” said Ginsberg, who appeared to be overwhelmed by the honor and recognition.

Ginsberg has worked for the Princeton Public Schools for 32 years. He served as the principal of

the Littlebrook School for 10 years, and then spent one year as the assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction.

Ginsberg requested a transfer back to become an elementary school principal, and has filled the position at the Johnson Park School for 21 years.

Ginsberg began his career as a reading, mathematics and social studies teacher at a junior high school in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, N.Y. He also taught third grade in a Brooklyn elementary school.

Ginsberg was the supervisor of programs for the gifted and talented program in the East Brunswick Public Schools before coming to the Princeton Public Schools.

CosmeticforDentistry CLASSIC SMILES

Presented by James J. Cally, D.M.D. HEALTHY GUMS, HEALTHY BODY Not only do healthy gums protect against tooth loss, but they also help preserve overall health. According to the American Academy of Periodontology, periodontal (gum) disease has been linked to an increased risk of developing diabetes, respiratory diseases, and heart disease. The link between oral health and heart health can be explained by the fact that inflamed gums produce chemicals that enter the blood stream and reach the heart, where they may increase inflammation inside plaques of atherosclerosis in the arteries of the heart. As a result, the risk of heart attack and stroke increases. While it is not yet clear if maintaining good oral health will prevent heart attacks and strokes, brushing and flossing lower levels of inflammatory markers.

Keeping up with regular dental checkups will give your dentist the opportunity

to keep an eye on your health as well as any possible areas of developing gum disease.

And if you conscientiously follow your dentist’s recommendations for at-home care, you will be more likely to have fewer potential gum problems. Now would be a good time to schedule your next exam at Montgomery Knoll, 192 Tamarack Circle, Skillman. We welcome your call at 609-924-8300. “Our commitment is to relationships of partnership, respect, and appreciation.”

“We offer cosmetic and family dentistry as well as Zoom!® and Invisalign®.”

Please e-mail your questions or comments to: drjamescally@yahoo.com P.S. At the very least, “periodontitis” (the more severe form of gum disease) causes the gums to pull away from teeth, thereby increasing the likelihood of tooth loss.

High school student draws crowd for candlelight vigil in memory of George Floyd Attendees at the vigil located near the entrance of Heritage Park on South Main Street included residents from Cranbury, Princeton, East and West Windsor Township.

“On a national scale this is just one protest. The many different protests happening in counties across the United States are growing and allowing for this larger movement to occur,” Sethi said. “I hope my way of gathering people up showed that we want to move forward to greater change.”

She added that the youth in America play a pivotal role in the current movement because they will become America’s next leaders.

“We need to keep this momentum going.

Before there would be just isolated outrage when a black man was killed,” Sethi said.

“A couple cities or urban areas would have protests and then after awhile they would die down and then lose popularity. We need to keep up the pressure to move ahead on reform and change police practices.”

The candlelight vigil was co-sponsored by the Coalition for Peace Action and the Bayard Rustin Center for Social Justice.

Organizers estimated that more than 250 people were in attendance during the evening.

By ANDREW HARRISON Staff Writer

Hundreds of people would gather around the tercentennial fountain in Heritage Park in Cranbury to participate in a candlelight vigil for George Floyd and other victims of police violence and racial discrimination.

Individuals and families of every age, race and nationality took part in the vigil as sundown occurred on June 14. Attendees were brought together by Princeton High School junior Isabel Sethi, who organized the peaceful protest.

For Sethi, viewing the death of Floyd while he was in police custody, was the moment when she knew she could not be a bystander as people pushed for reforms on policing and racial discrimination.

“Watching the now infamous George Floyd video, the video of his arrest and subsequent death was really the catalyst for me. Law enforcement officials are expected to serve and protect citizens yet they killed one of their own with so much indifference,” Sethi said. “They did not care that he said he could not breathe; they were more annoyed with people asking them to stop. I knew whatever small way I could contribute I needed to do that.”

During the vigil, speeches would take place, a “Why I’m protesting” board was available for attendees who wanted to write on a sticky note their reason for protesting that was then placed on the board, people also created signs, and had used their phones for QR codes (barcodes) taped to the sides of trees that directed them to Black Lives Matter resources.

“I have marched with Cesar Chavez.

Everyone getting out here today really shows support for the cause. I would hope that continued demonstrations won’t be needed because I worry about the other side characterizing the protests as violent,” said Kit Murdock of East Windsor.

Speakers for the vigil included Princeton High School science teacher Joy BarnesJohnson, Cranbury Mayor Matt Scott, chief activist Robt Seda-Schreiber at the Bayard Rustin Center for Social Justice, Princeton University professor of African American Art History Chika Okeke-Agulu, parish associate for the First Presbyterian Church of Cranbury Rev. Joanne Petto, and Rev. Bob Moore of the Coalition for Peace Action.

Princeton resident Brenda Bray said that she had come to the vigil after what has transpired nationally the past few weeks.

“If I have an opportunity to come listen

and see the people that are out to support Black Lives Matter and work against racism I absolutely want to be a part of that,” she added. “When you see every different race and age of folks coming out to these demonstrations you have to believe that this moment right now has got to be the one to make a difference.”

Sally O’Grady, of Cranbury, said she attended the vigil to help show strength in numbers and unity for black lives.

“To see so many young people is really positive. Having so many people join us here in Cranbury from various towns is also very positive,” she added. “We need to get the authorities to follow through on the change.”

As the light continued to fade in Heritage Park, candles were lit and phone flashlights were on as the closing out of the evening event finished with final remarks.

“I hope today inspires other young people. They too can create change in their communities and that they do not have to wait for someone else to do it,” Sethi said.

“More importantly everyone should be supporting the Black Lives Matter movement.

This should not just rest solely on African Americans. We should all be banding together.”

HEALTH MATTERS

By Liz Cohen, L.C.S.W.

Planning for End of Life

D

iscussions about the end of life are often taboo. This is especially true in America, where many feel uncomfortable speaking of or even contemplating their healthcare wishes in the face of terminal illness and where advanced medical interventions are able to keep people alive longer.

In New Jersey, patients near the end of life are treated with more aggressive medical care than in any other state in the nation, according to the Dartmouth Atlas of Healthcare. However, as the New Jersey Hospital Association notes, there is little evidence that this more aggressive care leads to better outcomes.

How then can patients achieve death with dignity, where their wishes are understood and respected by their families and healthcare

team?

Understanding and discussing the choices that are available are good first steps toward reducing the stress and anxiety often associated with the end of life.

Palliative Care The primary goal of palliative care is to relieve pain and suffering while a patient is undergoing treatment for a chronic, progressive, or serious illness, such as cancer, stroke, a neurological disorder, and heart, kidney, liver or respiratory disease.

Palliative care is designed to complement treatment and is largely focused on reducing symptoms, including pain, anxiety, and fatigue. This type of care often incorporates measures such as massage, acupuncture, meditation, and arts therapies to maximize comfort.

Hospice Care Hospice care is a specific

subset of palliative care in which patients have an anticipated life expectancy of less than six months and would like their medical care to focus on comfort and quality of life.

Patients and their families typically choose hospice care when potentially curative or disease-modifying treatment for a terminal illness is no longer appropriate or desired. Through hospice care, patients and families know that care will come from an interdisciplinary team using a multifaceted approach for comfort and support.

Goals of Care While discussions about death and dying can be difficult, establishing goals of care and outlining your endof-life wishes with your family and your healthcare provider can help bring peace of mind.

What is most important to you? Are there certain personal goals or family milestones like attending a wedding or the birth of a grandchild that you would like to reach? Are there certain religious, cultural, or spiritual practices that will influence your care?

Do you have a sense of your wishes for life-sustaining treatments such as artificial nutrition, intubation, or resuscitation? Talking about these elements does not mean that you don’t want them. It means that you can consider them and make

your wishes known.

To help guide those conversations, New Jersey residents have access to the Practitioner Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) form, a medical order that provides a framework to assist individuals in laying out their wishes in a conversation with their doctor or other healthcare practitioner.

The POLST form complements an advance directive, which is a legal document in which you can state your medical wishes and choose who will make medical decisions for you if you are not able. The advance directive cannot be used to affirm a do not resuscitate order if this is your wish.

For that, you need a physician or nurse practitioner’s signature, which the POLST provides.

Choosing a person as your healthcare proxy is an important part of this process. This person should be someone you trust to carry out your wishes and who will be comfortable doing so.

Five Wishes In addition to the POLST form, many individuals also use the Five Wishes approach to establishing goals of care.

A program of the Aging with Dignity organization, the Five Wishes approach is a model that walks people through the following five most important things to talk about when it comes to advance care planning. • Who is the person I want to make healthcare decisions for me when I can’t

might not resolve those uncertainties, but it can help you feel less alone when facing them.

Penn Medicine Hospice Princeton Health is dedicated to providing compassionate clinical care to patients with life-limiting illnesses, while supporting their loved ones. The team uses a holistic approach to meet the emotional and spiritual needs of both as they work through end-of-life issues. The team also supports patients’ efforts to live a full and meaningful life for as long as possible.

make them for myself? Tell that person why you chose them and explain your reasoning to everyone in your family. Make sure the person you chose knows your wishes and will honor them. • What kind of medical treatment do I want or not want? This is essentially your living will. Under what circumstances would you want or not want interventions like a ventilator or artificial nutrition? What about resuscitation? • How comfortable do I want to be? Consider what brings you comfort and what things you want to have around you at the end of life. Talk about pain relief and whether being alert or drowsy matters to you. Also, discuss hospice care. • How do I want people to treat me? Explore what death with dignity means to you, and what kind of personal interactions and support you value. • What do I want my loved ones and healthcare team to know? This is an opportunity to think about how you want to be remembered and what else you want your healthcare team to know about you in order to provide good care. It is a chance to express your feelings, share your emotions, and make amends if necessary.

The Five Wishes framework can be another helpful tool in completing the POLST form.

In this time of the COVID-19 pandemic, life seems to be filled with more uncertainty than ever. Talking about your healthcare wishes

A Message from our

PRESIDENT AND CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD Al Maghazehe, PhD, FACHE ∙ President and CEO, Capital Health Samuel J. Plumeri, Jr. ∙ Chairman, Capital Healthcare Corporation Board of Trustees

Neighbors, As the region’s leader in providing progressive, quality patient care, Capital Health has been taking an organized approach to meeting the needs of the community during the COVID-19 crisis and going forward as restrictions start to ease. Under guidance recently announced by New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, hospitals in New Jersey were permitted to resume elective surgeries starting Tuesday, May 26. Now we are ready to welcome patients back in a safe, healthy environment.

Through intensive planning to ensure the highest level of patient and visitor safety, our health care professionals at Capital Health are implementing a system of care that meets all requirements for providing great services in a safe environment. In addition to our usual robust disinfection protocols, we continue to take other necessary precautions to make sure the health and safety of our community and our staff remain our highest priority. We follow Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines and use isolation precautions for hospitalized patients. We are also taking the following steps to ensure the safety of our patients and staff: … Everyone entering our facilities is required to have their temperature taken. Anyone with a temperature equal to or greater than 100° F is not allowed to enter our facilities.

Everyone entering our facilities must also wear a mask. If they don’t have one, a mask is provided for them. To facilitate social distancing, we’ve created more areas for waiting and registration. In some locations, Plexiglas barriers have been installed to help prevent contamination. Our staff regularly cleans common areas and high-touch surfaces with hospital-approved disinfectant cleansers. If you need to use an elevator, occupancy is limited to four (4) people, each positioned in a corner of the elevator. … We use electronic flagging to identify patients with communicable disease. Any patients moving through the halls on stretchers or in wheelchairs must wear a mask, and clean sheets are placed on all stretchers after each use. All surfaces in patient care areas are cleaned between patients using the hospital-approved disinfectant cleansers.

Portable ultraviolet lights are also used in rooms as an added disinfectant measure. … Only people requiring medical care are allowed to enter our hospitals. Visitors are restricted, with limited exceptions for certain patients. Those with intellectual or cognitive disability, communication barriers, and behavioral concerns, or patients who are under 18 years old may have one designated support person. Maternity and pediatric patients may have one designated support person with them at all times.

We encourage you to maintain good health by scheduling appointments with your primary care and specialty physicians. You can be confident that the providers in our Capital Health Medical Group continue to practice all precautionary measures for safety to ensure that all patients, visitors, and staff are protected. However, we realize that not everyone is able to visit with his or her physician. For those patients, Capital Health will continue to offer video visits through secure connections on their computers or smart devices. New and established patients can schedule an appointment with the same providers they see at our offices.

If you or your loved ones are experiencing a medical emergency, we urge you to seek care immediately. On behalf of our health care professionals at Capital Health, we look forward to seeing you again at your next visit, and rest assured that we have safety procedures in place to protect you from infection and provide the highest level of care.

For complete details about the advanced safety measures we have established at our facilities, visit capitalhealth.org/advanced-safety-measures-covid-19.

Al Maghazehe, PhD, FACHE President & CEO

2020 Toyota Camry Hybrid XLE

2020 Toyota Camry Hybrid XLE

As a kid growing up in the Bronx in the 60s, I remember listening to Yankees’ broadcasts and hearing Phil Rizzuto refer to his former teammate right fielder Tommy Henrich as “Old Reliable.”

Henrich was known as a notoriously good clutch hitter. He helped the Yanks win an incredible 7 World Series titles.

All championship caliper teams must have their stars and then those other guys, like Henrich, who are in the background, come through in those clutch moments when you really need them.

tor on wheels. The 2018 retains to car companies.

No longer new Toyota Hybrid System can this model be criticized (THS) 2 that was upgraded for looking like a refrigera- for this year.

If you ask me, the new THS 2 is a smashing success.

This new hybrid system was designed to be more efficient and more powerful at the same time.

As far as gas mileage goes, it would be hard to beat the 46 miles per gallon EPA average for this sleek, comfortable and exciting to drive hybrid. The highway gas mileage rating comes in at 47 miles per gallon with a 42 mpg rating for city driving.

Moreover, the EPA estimates this model uses a miserly 2.2 gallons of gas per every 100 miles you drive it and carries an impressive annual fuel cost of $900 – one of the lowest I’ve seen since resuming this column in November.

Another impressive change for 2020 is the driving mode selector choices.

Beyond the typical normal, eco and EV modes for driving, Toyota added a “sport” mode option designed to give this car more of an edgy and aggressive drive.

It works. I found that when you push the “sport” mode button on the center console, it morphs the usually staid and conservative Camry Hybrid into a bit of a sports sedan with an aggressive edge to it.

It accelerates aggressively and smoothly and with ease and handles cornering curves quite nicely as well.

I recently took the 2020 Camry Hybrid on a road trip (about 320 miles roundtrip) from the flatlands of South Jersey to the hilly, twisty mountain roads of Mahopac, New York.

I found the Camry Hybrid to be way above average in comfort, handling

and performance on my trip.

But, beyond that, with the drive selector in the sport mode this car only used a little less than onequarter tank of gas to get me from Maple Shade, N.J. to Mahopac, N.Y. We tooled around Mahopac for the weekend – visiting relatives – and headed back to Maple Shade with an amazing half-tank of gas left when we got home.

Never once having to stop to refill.

Powering the Camry Hybrid XLE is a 2.5 liter, four cylinder engine, combined with an 88 kilowatt electric motor that makes up the Hybrid Synergy Drive System – putting out a more than adequate 208 horsepower.

The hybrid system is coupled with an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (ECVT) that makes for a very smooth almost seamless operation.

The base price for the Hybrid XLE sedan is $32,550. With options, my tester vehicle carried an MSRP sticker price of $39,819 – including $995 for destination and delivery.

Added options to my tester included: $2,375 for a driver assist package; $415 for adaptive headlights; $1,810 for the navigation package; $860 for a power/ tilt sliding moonroof; $259 for a carpet/trunk mat set and $395 for paint protection film.

The driver assist package includes a 10-inch color heads up display; bird’s eye view camera; intelligent clearance sonar with rear cross traffic braking and multi staged ventilated front seats.

The navigation package also includes a premium au-

dio system with JBL speakers, a subwoofer and an amplifier.

The navigation system along with the phone sync and music integration – from my ipod – was fairly easy to use. The premium JBL sound system was definitely one of the better auto sound systems I have heard.

In its annual review of all makes and models, the editors at Consumer Reports gave the Camry glowing reviews.

“The Camry is one of the better models among mid-sized sedans thanks to its comfortable ride, quite cabin, good fuel economy and easy to use controls,” says CR. In its overall grading system CR gives the Camry an impressive 84-to-86 overall score with a road test score of 86-to-89.

When it comes to crash test safety, the Camry Hybrid sedan didn’t miss a beat either.

On the government’s 5 star safety ratings the Camry Hybrid scored a top of the mark 5 star rating.

In fact, the Camry Hybrid turned in 5 star marks for the frontal crash test, side crash test and the rollover test, as well.

Overall, I must say, I was quite impressed with the Camry Hybrid SLE and would have to say that anyone is considering a mid-sized sedan hybrid who doesn’t give this vehicle serious consideration would be making a serious mistake.

LOOSE ENDS

By Pam Hersh

Joe Greene and his company

Workers at Trenton-based Quick Environmental preparing for a COVID-19 office cleaning job.

I

am no Pollyanna, but I discovered several glass-is-half-full aspects of this COVID-19 pandemic. The very clean glass becomes even fuller when you factor in the acts of extraordinary heroism and generosity.

• Masks. I love masks. They are super anti-aging weapons (you have no wrinkles if you can’t see

ria ne  

them), as well as weapons of mass protection. Masks protect the face from not only evil viruses, but also the insidious grass/dirt/mulch particles that blow into my face from the profoundly annoying and omnipresent dirt/mulch blowing machines around. Before masks, I would spend a good portion of my daily walk running away from the

THE STATE WE’RE IN

machines.

• Lawn signs. Lawn signs have become inspirational reading.

This communications vehicle has evolved beyond the ho-hum election signs and has blossomed this spring into expressions of passionate support for all school graduates, for essential workers from health care providers to supermar-

ket clerks, and for principles of social and racial justice.

• Cleaning. Cleaning, I discovered, is in fact next to godliness. It has evolved from a lowly nuisance chore to a revered, high-priority activity. COVID-19 upended my adherence to the six-second rule – drop the cookie on the floor and it is okay to eat if you pick it up within six seconds. The zero-second rule rules me these days. And I have adopted all the clean-freak rules of incessant wiping with disinfectant wipes, washing hands till chafed, and keeping little bottles of hand sanitizer tucked in my pocket instead of the no-longer-needed, anti-aging face cream.

These three COVID glass halffull elements came together the other day, when I, in my mask, actually talked to my apartment neighbor Joe Greene, instead of just racing by him as I did in preCOVID times.

Joe, who lives across the hall from me. is founding director of a Trenton-based commercial cleaning business called Quick Environmental that provides comprehensive environmental site remediation and assessment (mold, oil tanks, chemical spills etc.).

Nowadays as retail stores and office-based businesses open up, the company is focused on COVID cleaning.

Apparently, the virus can survive on surfaces for up to 17 days.

“Before an area infected with coronavirus can be deemed safe, it will need to be completely remediated using extreme precaution and with the proper equipment. Quick Environmental’s professionals are highly trained and experienced in the safe and effective decontamination of coronavirus. Our COVID-19 disinfectant treatment uses a

proprietary disinfectant approved by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),” said Joe. His company employees land on a site and attack it with a vengeance to make sure that every nook and cranny is COVID-free.

Before COVID I might have said, “whatever.” Post COVID, I am saying “awesome” and putting Joe’s employees in that category of super-essential workers.

Fifteen years ago, Joe, a former investment banker and financial consultant, went into his own business. He saw great potential in this essential yet sustainable business by being nimble, flexible and responsive to society’s environmental challenges. Joe also recognized the workforce potential in Trenton. He made it a priority to create jobs that were local, secure, and represented a good future for the employees. He works with the community development nonprofit Isles to build a workforce of highly trained employees who benefit themselves and the entire community.

Joe Greene, as the executive Mr. Clean, fessed up to being as personally committed to cleanliness as he is professionally. “My living space is very orderly and clean. I take off my shoes every time I enter my apartment,” Joe said.

But I say hats off to him and other employers (like the landscape companies even with those horrible machines) who are providing essential services by hiring local workers and treating them in a fair and dignified manner. We may need another lawn sign to honor the cleaners, the landscapers – and all those workers making the lawn signs.

American Farmland Trust report shows New Jersey is keeping its nickname alive

N

othing says summer like Jersey tomatoes, blueberries, sweet corn and peaches. We’re not called the Garden State for nothing!

A new report by the nonprofit American Farmland Trust ranks New Jersey No. 1 of all states in preserving its agricultural lands and keeping farming viable. New Jersey is continuing to earn its Garden State nickname.

The report, “Farms Under Threat: The State of the States,” paints a detailed picture of America’s agricultural landscape and the threats facing farms and ranches.

Between 2001 and 2016, 11 million acres of farmland across the nation were lost to development, or about 2,000 acres a day.

As the nation’s most densely populated state, New Jersey’s farmland is especially vulnerable to conversion to residential and commercial uses.

States differed vastly in their response to dwindling farmland.

New Jersey was ranked No. 1 by the American Farmland Trust for using a variety of tools to protect farmland and help farmers. Other top states included Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, California, Oregon and Washington.

To date, New Jersey’s farmland

SOLUTIONS

preservation program has permanently protected more than 2,600 farms on more than 237,000 acres – or roughly one-third of all farmland in the state. And the Garden State has made a bigger financial investment in farmland preservation than any other state.

“We are incredibly proud New Jersey has been recognized by the American Farmland Trust as a leader in the nation for thinking ahead and working smart to create the best environment to support the preservation of farmland and the agricultural industry,” Agriculture Secretary Douglas H. Fisher said.

The report’s scorecard is the first state-by-state analysis of policies for preventing farmland loss.

Six policy tools were evaluated: • Purchase of agricultural conservation easements, also known as the purchase of the development rights on farmland; • Land use planning policies to manage growth and stabilize the land base; • Property tax relief programs to reduce property taxes paid on agricultural land; • Agricultural district programs to encourage landowners to form special districts to support farming; • “Farm Link” programs to connect farmers seeking land with property owners who want their land to stay in agriculture;

W

Jersey produce and farm products.

New Jersey’s farmland preservation efforts ramped up in 1998 when Gov. Christine Todd Whitman established the Garden State Preservation Trust as part of an ambitious plan to preserve one million acres of open space and farmland.

Greg Romano, vice chairman of the Garden State Preservation Trust, noted that state spending on farmland preservation jumped from $15 million a year to about $80 million.

“That was a huge boost,” he said.

Funding for the million-acre program expired after a decade, but in 2014 New Jersey voters passed a ballot measure directing a percentage of the state’s corporate business tax revenue toward preserving open space, farmland and historic properties. This ensures a steady and stable source of funding; the percentage recently rose from 4% to 6%.

Susan Payne, executive director of the State Agriculture Development Committee, said she was gratified to learn of New Jersey’s top ranking in the report, “but this is no time to rest on our laurels.”

“New Jersey farmers have new and evolving challenges facing them, from ever-changing market demands to more volatile weather

patterns associated with climate change,” she said. “The task before us is to protect the best of New Jersey’s farmland and support farmers in sustaining the viability of their agricultural operations over the long term.”

And while New Jersey earned the top ranking for protecting its farmland, it is also ranked third behind Texas and North Carolina for having the most threatened agricultural land, demonstrating the continued need for a strong farmland preservation program.

“We can, and must, strive to preserve the state’s farmland base, help farmers continue to be good stewards of the land, and create an environment where farm businesses can thrive, now and in the future,” Fisher said.

“American Farmland Trust’s report shows we’re on the right track, but we must continue to forge ahead to remain a model of the best farmland protection practices for many years to come,” he said.

Every New Jerseyan should be proud to know the Garden State continues to lead the nation and keep its nickname alive.

nities. More specifically, these losses are likely to reduce the supply of fresh water, reduce pollination crucial for food supply and plant life, and reduce natural pest and disease control.

Although over 100,000 Americans and over 390,000 around the world have died from the virus, the possible losses from starvation, flooding, lack of fresh water and resulting other diseases and pandemics could amount to many times those deaths. A chilling example is the Russian starvations in the early 1920s and the early 1930s which

resulted in estimated losses of between 8 and 10 million human beings.

In response to the possible environmental calamities we face, there have been scientific alerts, and the designing and implementation of social policies and projects geared to forestall them. But incomprehensibly, there have also been opposition, rollbacks and just plain ignoring the situation.

How bad are the situations?

Despite the lowering of commercial activity and travel during the pandemic, the levels of carbon di-

oxide in the atmosphere in this May were the highest in human history.

The pre-industrial average was 280 parts per million (PPM). The readings of carbon dioxide emissions in May were 417.1 or .2 PPM — or 1% higher than the previous high.

The yearly rise for last year and over the preceding decade was 2.5 PPM. Half a century ago the rise was only 0.8 PPM. While total emissions for the year could drop as much as 8%, scientists estimate that human-caused

With all of the social injustice, unrest and the health challenges we face, how important are the environmental issues? One leading ecologist recently warned that what we

• State leasing programs to make state-owned lands available to farmers and ranchers.

According to the report, New Jersey and Virginia were the only two states to use all six of these tools.

Former Agriculture Secretary Art Brown, who led the state’s farmland preservation program from 1982 through 2001, believes using a variety of tools is what makes the program successful.

“You need to have all the parts of the puzzle,” he commented. “I was very happy to hear New Jersey was recognized as the No. 1 program in the country.”

New Jersey was one of the earliest states to put a farmland preservation program in place, thanks in part to Art Brown’s efforts.

In 1983, Gov. Thomas Kean signed into law the Agriculture Retention and Development Act, which established the agricultural easement purchase program to protect farmland in perpetuity.

At the same time, Kean signed the Right to Farm Act, which protects farmers from unreasonable local ordinances and private nuisance actions – for example, noise from farming equipment.

Brown also introduced the popular Jersey Fresh program – widely imitated by other states – to encourage consumers to buy New

Speeches during Princeton High School virtual graduation express lessons learned

By LEA KAHN Staff Writer

Childhood’s end came on a warm summer night for the Class of 2020, but not on the front lawn of Princeton High School.

The June 16 ceremony came inside their homes on computer screens, as the 353 seniors and their families watched the school’s virtual graduation ceremony. It was filmed over several days, making up for the lack of the customary in-person graduation.

Nevertheless, it was complete with Edward Elgar’s traditional “Pomp and Circumstance,” random photos of students and a drone flyover of the Princeton High School campus to set the tone for the school’s first-ever remote graduation.

Senior Class President Spencer Katz welcomed viewers to Princeton High School’s 92nd graduation ceremony, followed by student speakers who focused on themes such as community and achievement.

Taking the theme of community to heart, senior Eva Petrone said her grandfather, Jack Petrone, graduated from Princeton High School in 1945 and her grandmother, Jean Petrone, graduated in 1947.

Eva’s grandfather was a police officer who rose to become the police chief of the former Princeton Township Police Department in the early 1980s. He always emphasized family and friends, and made sure the community was safe, Eva said.

“He talked about how family and friends are so important, and how you should always cherish the people in your life. I took that to heart,” Eva said.

Princeton High School is a community, and “if you are lucky enough, you find a group of people who make you love, laugh and smile.

We find a community among those people,” she said.

Spending so much time apart from her friends while the school transitioned to remote learning because of COVID-19, “it really makes us realize just how much we should value the time we have together. High school goes by fast,” Eva said.

While Eva thanked the high school staff, coaches, family, friends and her parents and brothers for their support, she offered a special thanks to her grandparents.

“I would especially like to thank that couple that fell in love and started their lives here all those years ago, and for showing my cousins and my brothers and I what community is all about,” Eva said.

Senior Ben Quainton said he had been asked to speak about achievement, which he admitted had confused him somewhat. He said that if he had been asked to speak on it as a freshman, his remarks would have been different.

As a freshman, he was “gung ho” and excited about trying out the many clubs and activities at Princeton High School, reeling off a long list that ranged from The Tower student newspaper to sports.

Fast forward to being a rising senior, Ben said he was heavily involved in clubs and extracurricular activities while also carrying an intense academic course load.

“On paper, everything is great. I achieved all I wanted to achieve and I was ready to face the next checklist on the high school journey – college applications,” Ben said.

But the other side of the story was not so pretty, Ben said. He was depressed and anxious, and often cried himself to sleep. He said he felt “incredibly alone and scared. I was barely hanging on.”

Through therapy, Ben realized that one major source of suffering was the thought that he was not good enough. He was motivated to succeed not for its own sake, but out of fear. He became addicted to achieving and the validation and superficial accolades that accompany it.

Modern American culture glorifies competition, ambition and achievement, he said. It is a pattern that is prevalent at Princeton High School, and he fell into the rat race to achieve.

But he decided to give up many activities and to let go.

Given all that he has learned about himself and life, Ben said his parting advice to his classmates is simple: “Do not live your life as a self-centered achievement checklist.” All of his classmates will achieve something in their lives, and it is important to be grounded, he said.

Princeton High School Principal Jessica Baxter, presiding over her first graduation ceremony as principal, thanked the parents for entrusting their children to Princeton High School and its staff.

She told the parents that she is most proud of her students for the kindness and compassion that they have shown to her and to others, and not for their test scores or rankings or championships.

To the seniors, Baxter said she was worried about how she would handle her first high school graduation ceremony as the principal.

The events since March 16, when the district shifted to remote learning, made her realize how “silly” it was to worry about it.

“I realize how silly and wasteful that worry was. I wish I could have that worry back. It is trivial in light of what we are facing today,” Baxter said, referring to COVID-19 and the racial unrest that society is dealing with now.

Baxter encouraged the seniors to focus on the present, and to be thoughtful about their next steps. She advised them to “look ahead of you as an opportunity. Let’s not worry our lives away.”

While June 16 marked the graduation of the Class of 2020, it also marks his own graduation, Steve Cochrane, the superintendent of schools, told the seniors. That’s because he is “graduating” to retirement in two weeks, capping a 40-year career in education, he said.

“My last act as superintendent is to bestow on you your diplomas, and a few words of wisdom. So here are those words – life is a team sport,” Cochrane said.

He asked the seniors to think of their most meaningful moments in high school, and he said he could guarantee they were spent with other people – winning a game, performing in a play, feeding the hungry, leading a protest.

They may be asked about their grade point

average or their Advanced Placement courses or athletic accomplishments, but success is what they do together and not what they do as individuals, Cochrane said. It is all part of being connected, he said.

Cochrane told the seniors that when he left a deanship at Princeton University to become an elementary school teacher, he was inspired

by Robert Fulgham’s poem, entitled “All I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten.” It seems appropriate to conclude with a few stanzas from the poem, he said.

“All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of

Solutions tion’s opposition to environmental protection come? From fossil fuel industry and other corporate allies, apparently unwittingly seeking short term profits at the expense of human, and possibly all, viability? From a disregard or ignorance of the essential, if not always perfect, roles that governments and such agencies as the World Health Organization, play in our modern world? President Ronald Reagan may have been among the first to express this selfdefeating notion that governments are not the solution; they are the problem.

Of course, some governments – often those not supporting democratic rule – contribute to, if not originate, bad policy. One of the most impactful changes, worldwide, is the loss of forests. Since the year 2000, the world has lost about 10% of its tropical tree cover.

The total, 9.3 million acres, is nearly the size of Switzerland. Last year, the loss was about 3% higher than in 2018 and was the third highest on record. Brazil is responsible for one third of the losses, with most of that occurring in the clear-cutting of the Amazon to permit farming. Much of the loss is related to subsistence farming, but some results from commercial agriculture and even mining.

The Brazilian president, Jair Bolsonaro, like ours, has little regard for the climate crisis.

Other countries leading in deforestation are: Bolivia, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Indonesia. While some countries are reducing their deforestation, notably Ghana, Ivory Coast and Colombia, scientists are worried by the persistent levels of loss. And it is the “old growth” forests that provide the important storage of carbon and the preservation of biodiversity.

Will the world be able to work together in time to reverse these extinctions and losses?

Many scientists warn that the survival of life as we have known it depends on our adopting the necessary changes.

Continued from Page 10A emissions would have to drop by 20-30% to slow the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Millions of years ago, researchers have determined that global temperatures were, for a time, 3.5 to 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit higher than the pre-industrial levels. And ocean levels were at least 50 feet higher – a level that would inundate most of our coasts.

During the Obama administration, a number of large-scale construction projects were initiated to protect Americans, their cities and communities from rising sea levels and stronger, more frequent storms. But now with the demands of the coronavirus diverting, or slowing, financing, that financing may not be available in time. A spokesman for New York City’s projects pointed out that, “These projects are absolutely critical for bolstering our defenses against future disasters.” The projects include building gates along the East Side of Manhattan to protect from flooding.

But a Republican Senate may not be inclined to legislate the necessary additional funds. And the Trump administration has been using the virus as an excuse to reduce federal spending related to environmental efforts. And if that money is no longer available, the cities and states themselves will probably not be able to finance the completion themselves.

This will leave them facing the even greater costs of rebuilding following destruction from flooding and storms.

At the same time, the Trump administration has undertaken two actions to curb environmental regulations. These focus on permanently weakening federal authority to issue strong clean air and climate change regulations. A Harvard professor of Environmental Law warned that, “When it comes to trying to unravel this nation’s environmental protection laws, this administration never sleeps.”

Say you’re sorry when you hurt somebody.

“Wash your hands before you eat. Take a nap every afternoon. And when you go out into the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together. Apply it to your family life, your work, your government or your world and it still holds true. When you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together,” Cochrane said.

Summary of proposed changes: The ordinance, if adopted, will make the following changes, among others: -Borough Code provisions regarding affordable housing. The ordinance repeals the following provisions of the Borough Code and replaces them with a set of uniform provisions in the Township Code that will apply to the entire municipality: Chapter 16 Housing Article VIII Trust Fund for Affordable Housing Article IX Affordable Housing Board Article X Low and Moderate Income Housing Regulations Article XI Affordable Housing Utility Article XII Municipal Housing Liaison Chapter 17A Land Use Article XI Zoning Section 17A-202.1 Affordable Housing Overlay Zone Section 17A-202.2 Affordable Housing Contribution for development of 4 or less units Section 17A-202.3 Nonresidential required growth share Section 17A-202.5 Payment in lieu of construction Section 17A-202.6 Cost of Administration of AH units Section 17A-205.2 Development Fees – Purpose Section 17A-205.3 Definitions Section 17A-205.4 Development Fees Section 17A-205.5 Eligible exactions, ineligible exactions and exemptions Section 17A-205.6 Collection of fees Section 17A-205.7 Development Fee escrow account Section 17A-205.8 Use of Funds Section 17A-205.9 Monitoring and enforcement Section 17A-205.10 Penalties Section 17A-205.11 Expiration of development fee ordinance -Reorganization and renumbering of sections in the Township Code applicable to affordable housing. The ordinance reorganizes and renumbers the sections in the Township Code applicable to affordable housing.

-New provisions regarding the administration of affordable housing and the municipal housing liaison. The ordinance consolidates current articles XII (affordable housing) and XIIA (municipal housing liaison) in Chapter 10B of the Township Code and replaces them with a new Article XII containing the divisions and sections listed below. o Purpose of the new provisions: As described in the ordinance, the purpose and effect of the new provisions are as follows: • The ordinance sets forth regulations regarding the very low-, low-, and moderate-income housing units in the Municipality consistent with the provisions known as the “Substantive Rules of the New Jersey Council on Affordable Housing”, N.J.A.C. 5:93 et seq., the Uniform Housing Affordability Controls (“UHAC”), N.J.A.C. 5:80-26.1 et seq., except where modified by the requirements for very low-income housing as established in P.L. 2008, c.46 (the “Roberts Bill,” codified at N.J.S.A. 52:27D-329.1) as reflected in the terms of a Settlement Agreement between the Municipality and Fair Share Housing Center (“FSHC”) such that the statutory requirement to provide very low-income units equal to 13% of affordable units approved and constructed after July 17, 2008, to be affordable households at 30% of the regional median income, overrides the UHAC requirement that 10% of all low- and moderate-income units must be affordable at 35% of the regional median income, and the Municipality’s constitutional obligation to provide a fair share of affordable housing for very low-, low-, and moderate-income households.

• The ordinance is intended to assure that very low-, low- and moderate-income units ("affordable units") are created with controls on affordability over time and that very low , low- and moderate-income households shall occupy these units.

The ordinance shall apply to all inclusionary developments and 100% affordable developments (including those funded with low-income housing tax credit financing) except where inconsistent with applicable law.

• The ordinance implements and incorporates the Fair Share Plan and addresses the requirements of N.J.A.C. 5:93, as may be amended and supplemented.

• The ordinance establishes an affordable housing program for the entire municipality in order to: o Provide housing opportunities for very low-, low-, and moderateincome families in order to meet the existing and anticipated housing needs of such persons, maintain a socio-economic mix in the community, provide a range of housing types dispersed throughout the community in a suitable living environment, and satisfy the community’s obligation to provide a fair share of the region’s housing needs; o Assure that the very low-, low-, and moderate-income units constructed under this program continue to remain available to very low-, low-, and moderate-income households through controls on rental and resale prices to be exercised by the Affordable Housing Board under the guidance of the Municipality’s housing manager; o Provide for housing opportunities for those who work in Princeton and provide the community with essential services, but who cannot currently afford to live in the community; and o Provide that developments that create affordable housing demand within Princeton share in the burden of providing such affordable housing, including commercial and institutional developments. o Outline of the new provisions:

Statement of purpose: Currently, secondary residences are a permitted accessory use in all of the residential districts of the former Borough, either as part of or attached to the main structure, or as a separate structure, provided either the main residence or the secondary residence is owner-occupied. In addition, any single-family dwelling in the former Township can contain a flat, provided either the flat or the main dwelling is owner-occupied. The purpose of this ordinance is to replace the current Township and Borough Code provisions regarding flats and secondary residences and instead make accessory dwelling units a permitted accessory use in all residential districts in Princeton according to uniform standards for said units, including limitations on size and number of habitable rooms. The ordinance also eliminates any homeowner occupancy requirement.

Summary of proposed changes: The ordinance, if adopted, will make the following changes, among others: - Definitions. The ordinance amends section 10B-241, Definitions, of the “Code of the Township of Princeton, New Jersey, 1968” (“Township Code”) by (1) deleting the definition of “flat”; (2) adding new definitions entitled “accessory dwelling unit” and “dwelling unit, accessory”; and (3) amending the definitions of “Accessory building,” “dwelling unit” and “structure, single-family.” It also amends section 17A-201 of the “Code of the Borough of Princeton, New Jersey, 1974” (“Borough Code”) is by (1) deleting the definitions of “Building, secondary residence” and “Senior secondary residence”; (2) adding a new definition entitled “accessory dwelling unit”; and (3) amending the definitions of “Building, accessory,” “Building, principal” and “Secondary dwelling unit.”

- Township “flat” ordinance. The ordinance repeals in its entirety section 10B-274 of the Township Code pertaining to flats.

- Accessory dwelling units. o Zoning districts in the former Township: The ordinance amends 10B-255 of the Township Code to add accessory dwelling units (“ADUs”) as a permitted accessory use in residential districts R-A through R-H of the former Township, and it establishes the following criteria applicable to said ADUs: a. There shall be not more than one accessory dwelling unit per lot. b. The lot must meet the minimum lot area that is specified in this chapter for the zoning district in which the lot is located. c. The accessory dwelling unit shall be used only for residential purposes for one family. d. The size of the accessory dwelling unit shall not exceed 800 square feet or twenty-five percent of the total floor area of the principal dwelling unit, whichever is greater. If the accessory dwelling unit is fully handicapped accessible under New Jersey’s Barrier Free subcode, the property shall be granted an increase of five percent of the total maximum floor area allowed, which can be applied either to the principal dwelling or to the accessory dwelling, or both. e. There shall not be more than three habitable rooms per accessory dwelling unit.
