Council eyes purchase of 48-acre tract By CHARLES DAYE Staff Writer

The New Jersey Fire Museum and Fallen Firefighters Memorial, 4 Polhemustown Road, Allentown, will hold its fifth annual open house to showcase the history of firefighting on Sept. 27 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event is free. The museum has a collection of fire apparatus dating back to 1814. A memorial service will be dedicated to New Jersey firefighters who have died in the line of duty. There will be activities for children during the day.

unicipal ofﬁcials are seeking to purchase a 48-acre parcel in the Cassville section of Jackson and preserve the land as open space. If ofﬁcials follow through with the plan, a development of 16 homes that was approved in 2018 by the Jackson Zoning Board of Adjustment will not be constructed at the site. During a Township Council meeting on Sept. 8, council President Alexander Sauickie, Vice President Andrew Kern, Councilman Martin Flemming, Councilman Ken Bressi and Councilman Stephen Chisholm voted “yes” on a motion to introduce an ordinance and move forward with the plan to buy the property at 131 Pushkin Road. A public hearing on the ordinance has been scheduled for the council’s Sept. 22 meeting. The council members may adopt the ordinance following the public hearing. The property on Pushkin Road is

New law eliminates ‘freeholder’ from county government

ay goodbye to the centuries-old title of freeholder in New Jersey county government. Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy has signed Senate bill 855 into law and the legislation requires the title of “chosen freeholder” to be changed to “county commissioner” and all “boards of chosen freeholders” to be known as “boards of county commissioners,” according to a press release from Murphy’s ofﬁce. The law also requires county governments to update their letterheads, stationary and other writings, as well as their websites, to bear the title of county commissioners in place of freeholders or chosen freeholders within one year of the bill’s

effective date, Jan. 1, 2021. The law does not require counties to update or replace signs or other writings to reﬂect this title change within the speciﬁed timeframe if doing so would require the expenditure of county funds, according to the press release. In those cases, the title would be changed whenever the writing is next updated or replaced in the ordinary course of business. “We have an obligation to ensure that governance in New Jersey is inclusive and representative of the tremendous diversity of our great state,” Murphy said. “Amid a national reckoning to re-examine vestiges rooted in structural racism,

this action will eliminate the use of the term ‘freeholder’ in county government – a title that is an outgrowth of a time when people of color and women were excluded from public office,” he said. In a statement issued on Aug. 24, the Middlesex County Board of Chosen Freeholders, all five of whom are Democrats, said, “We are pleased to see the Governor and the Legislature take action to retire the title of ‘chosen freeholder.’ “This term dates back to an era in which people of color, women and those without financial means were not treated as equals – and is not representative of the ideals which we all aspire to today. “We are pleased to see this title be re-

placed and look forward to entering 2021 as the Middlesex County Board of County Commissioners,” the freeholders said. Asked to comment on the new law, Thomas Arnone, the director of the Monmouth County Board of Chosen Freeholders, all ﬁve of whom are Republicans, said, “As I have previously stated, I respect the opinions of my freeholder colleagues throughout the state who support the title change, but I have a somewhat different opinion on the matter. “I have advocated for the state to look at all offensive names across the board and not just the title of freeholder. For example,

Cultural center to debut Basie exhibit with Sept. 25 event

he T. Thomas Fortune Cultural Center, 94 Drs James Parker Blvd., Red Bank, will open its doors and front lawn on Sept. 25 for “A Love Letter to Count Basie: From The Great Migration to The Harlem Renaissance,” an exhibit that illuminates the Red Bank-born musical giant William “Count” Basie (1904-84). The exhibit will also pay homage to some of the most important eras from the Great Migration to the Harlem Renaissance, according to a press release. A VIP opening reception will be held on the center’s front lawn. Attendees will be escorted inside the center to view the exhibit and featured items from 6-9 p.m. Morgan Stanley is the lead sponsor of an educational experience that promotes excellence in black history and culture, according to the press release. More than 1,000 Basie artifacts are archived at the Institute of Jazz Studies at Rutgers University, Newark. This is the ﬁrst time the collection – known formally as the William “Count” and Catherine Basie papers and artifacts – will be shared publicly since its 2018 acquisition by the institute. The collection is the only body of materials that traces directly to the Basie family and is one of the institute’s largest collections, according to the press release. “This exhibit is especially ﬁtting considering the racial tension we are experi-

“This exhibit is especially fitting considering the racial tension we are experiencing in the nation. Count Basie’s music broke through racial barriers and brought people together during a time of lawful segregation in America.” — Gilda Rogers encing in the nation,” said Gilda Rogers, vice president of the T. Thomas Fortune Foundation. “Count Basie’s music broke through racial barriers and brought people together during a time of lawful segregation in America,” Rogers said. Visitors will learn how Basie used his celebrity as an activist, including standing on a picket line in late 1963 as black and white students demanded that Florida State University integrate, according to the press release. Photographer, artist and former Red Bank resident Alan Burgess, founder of Benduka Arts, Los Angeles, will present a collection of photography exploring scenes from Asbury Park to Ghana. Burgess was commissioned by the T. Thomas Fortune Cultural Center to create

a Harlem literary mural collage, reﬂecting the Harlem Renaissance that occurred in the early 20th century. Burgess is also a contributing writer of the Harlem Renaissance narrative of the exhibit, which shapes the segregated times during which Basie made a name for himself. The VIP reception for “A Love Letter to Count Basie: From The Great Migration to The Harlem Renaissance,” will take place from 6-9 p.m. Sept. 25. Tickets are available online for a $50 donation and include a preview of the exhibit, a souvenir book and light fare with beverages. Visit www.tthomasfortuneculturalcenter.org to purchase tickets. All attendees are required to purchase tickets in advance and select the time slot during which they will attend. Visitors are

required to wear a face mask and will not be allowed to view the exhibit without being escorted inside the center, according to the press release. “A Love Letter to Count Basie: From The Great Migration to The Harlem Renaissance” was created in conjunction with the Institute for Jazz Studies and is sponsored by Morgan Stanley, OceanFirst Bank, Investors Bank, Denholtz Properties, the Community YMCA, Monmouth Arts, Two River Theater and Detour Gallery. For more information, email info@ thomasfortuneculturalcenter.org Before the 2020 coronavirus pandemic began in New Jersey, musicians, artists, civic leaders and politicians gathered at the T. Thomas Fortune Cultural Center and kicked off “2020: Year of Basie,” a celebration of Count Basie, by sharing thoughts about the Grammy winner, according to the press release. Clarence Banks, who joined the Count Basie Orchestra shortly before Basie’s death in 1984, was on hand to share recollections of his interactions with the bandleader and composer. Dee Askew, who manages the orchestra, was also at the event and spoke. Dorthaan Kirk, WBGO’s “First Lady” of Jazz, who was named a 2020 NEA Jazz Master, wrote a “Love Letter to Basie” that was shared at the event.

New law eliminates ‘freeholder’ from county government (Continued from page 1)

they should start with reviewing the name of Rutgers University, which is the largest institution of higher education in New Jersey. “With that being said, the changing of the title of freeholder does not bother me nearly as much as the legislative effort that was put in during a time of ﬁnancial distress, (with ongoing) health and safety concerns, and state operations being in disarray.

“In closing, I can only speak on behalf of the Monmouth County Board of Chosen Freeholders and whatever name we are called, we will continue to be leaders in the state in what we call good government,” Arnone said. “The decision to change the word freeholder to county commissioner is long awaited,” said Sen. Vin Gopal (D-Monmouth). “In Monmouth County, where we have towns like Freehold Borough, Freehold

Township and Upper Freehold, not only will changing this title avoid confusion and increase voter participation, it will tell women and our communities of color that New Jersey does not associate itself in any way with these archaic values of the past. This is a proud day in our history,” Gopal added. “The term freeholder is outdated and it’s offensive to women and minorities,” Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin (DMiddlesex) said. “The term dates back to

a time before the Revolutionary War when only white male owners of debt-free land were allowed to hold public ofﬁce. New Jersey is the only state in the country that still uses the term freeholder. It is long past time that we right this wrong and change the title to commissioner.” State Sen. Joe Pennacchio (R-Essex, Morris, Passaic) said, “As a former freeholder, I believe it is important that the public knows the substance of what a freeholder does rather than what the term freeholder is. “Today’s action was nine years in the making from when I initially proposed the abolishment of the antiquated term. “The title ‘county commissioner’ will lend itself to transparency. This revamp will ensure more Garden State residents better understanding the function of this important position in county government,” Pennacchio said. The press release issued by the governor’s ofﬁce quoted Jonathan Holloway, the new president of Rutgers University, saying, “This is not about the people who serve as freeholders, but rather the title. The title freeholder has a legacy that grows out of denying people access and the right to have a voice. Our present day should simply not look like that.”

between Thompson Bridge and Freehold roads. The parcel is owned and assessed to Rental Property Holdings, LLC. The tract is zoned for residential use and has frontage on Freehold, Sunnybrook and Thompson Bridge roads. The ordinance describes the property as being heavily wooded and impacted by fresh water wetlands along the southwestern portion. Jackson officials commissioned an appraisal of the property and indicated its value has been placed at $1.44 million. Officials said they want to acquire and preserve the land. Sauickie said the council members have made land preservation a priority. He said the parcel on Pushkin Road that officials want to buy “is residential property that would have otherwise been additional homes in town.” He said Jackson has the funding in place to make the purchase, “so there is no additional impact to residents. There is more than $5 million in (Jackson’s) open space fund … which was approved by residents and will be used to purchase the land (and to) prevent over-development in town,” Sauickie said.

It is then that Mulan decides to secretly disguise who she is and take her fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s place. She knows that this tactic could lead to dishonor for her father and family, but it is a risk she is willing to take to protect him. The battle is expanding and Mulan continues protecting her identity, but an evil witch knows who she is and will try to expose the warrior who is impressing all the men around her.

Question: I am so sorry that Penny Dreadful: City of Angels was canceled. Are there not enough subscribers to Showtime? â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Gloria Matt Roush: Showtime has yet to elaborate on this decision, but I doubt it has anything to do with the size of its subscriber base as much as the size of the audience that chose to tune in. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d think during a time of quarantine that more subscribers would be inclined to watch new shows on premium services, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible this new version was just too different from the original Penny Dreadful. I often found the supernatural elements to be an uneasy ďŹ t with the social-realism crime stories. I would have liked to see this get another shot as well, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also possible that economic factors during the pandemic played a part in this. At least the original Penny got to end on its own terms, even if it was a surprise to the viewer.

It usually works the other way, for NetďŹ&#x201A;ix to come to the rescue of a prematurely canceled series. NetďŹ&#x201A;ix has a history of dropping shows after three or four seasons, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re less in the habit of reversing course.

Howell will phase out French as World Language option Staff Writer

HOWELL – The Howell K-8 School District will phase out French from its World Language program. Bruce Preston, Howell’s assistant superintendent of curriculum and personnel, told Board of Education members on Aug. 26 that a French teacher has resigned from her position in the two middle schools. “That leaves us in a position where we have to find and replace the French teacher. World languages in general is a difficult position to fill … and French is among the more difficult language certifications to fill,” Preston said. He said once administrators learned the French teacher was going to resign, they posted the position and conducted interviews. “There were two applicants and those applicants did not work out … So we are left with a difficult decision here and I mean that genuinely. This was not an easy decision for us to make,” Preston said. He said the French teacher’s position continues to be a increasingly difficult position to fill and has been an issue for the seven years he has been in Howell. “We have been able to hold off this decision, but it seems inevitable. We are the only school district to provide French and as a result of that, Howell High School is the only high school still providing fulltime French instruction. “So where does that leave us? It leaves us in a situation where we have to begin to phase out French as a world language in the middle schools and again I say that with a heavy heart,” Preston said. Beginning this school year, sixth grade pupils who enter Howell’s middle schools will receive Spanish instruction. Students in the seventh and eighth grades who started with French will receive instruction from a remaining French teacher. During the 2020-21 school year, only seventh and eighth grade pupils will receive French instruction. During the 2021-22 school year, only eighth grade pupils will receive French instruction. Beginning in the 2022-23 school year, French will no longer be offered in Howell’s middle schools. “We did not come to this decision lightly … It is a difficult position to fill and increasingly so. We are in a position where we either allow students to come into a

program and possibly have to remove them partially through that program, or make the difﬁcult decision now to phase out the program, but provide students with a continuous and appropriate experience in another language,” Preston said. In other business, Preston said he started conversations with groups in the community in regard to the school district’s approach to the Amistad curriculum that will be introduced to students. The Amistad curriculum comes from the New Jersey Department of Education’s Amistad Commission. The commission’s goal, according to its website, is to change the landscape for the study of United States and world history by placing Africans and African Americans at the center of the narrative as agents rather than as bystanders or victims who live on the margins of the United States and the world. The commission’s mandate has shifted from one of inclusion to one of infusion and its goals are considered to be revolutionary because they challenge the “either/ or” notion that if individuals study African Americans, they have to leave out important events and people in the national narrative, such as people in seats of political and economic power, according to the Amistad Commission. Preston said the curriculum would offer instruction in black history throughout the school year and not just during February, which is designated as Black History Month. He said representatives of the school district have had conversations with parents “about where and how, based on their experiences as parents of children of color, they believe we might be able to enhance the curriculum. There is a little bit more work on the horizon and I think everyone would agree this topic is not a one-anddone or a check-a-box kind of conversation.” Board member Jennifer Okerson provided curriculum updates, including the addition of an LGBTQIA+ curriculum in Howell. LGBTQIA refers to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning/queer, intersex and asexual/ally community, and the plus symbol is used to reference other terms for affectional/gendered identities that exist such as pansexual, according to district administrators. Ally refers to an individual who is straight, but who supports the LGBTQIA

community. According to the Garden State Equality website, Gov. Phil Murphy “signed a law (in 2019) requiring boards of education to include instruction and adopt instructional materials that accurately portray political, economic and social contributions of persons with disabilities and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals. “This law would require that LGBTQ Americans, as well as Americans with disabilities, are included and recognized for their signiﬁcant historic contributions to

the economic, political and social development of New Jersey and the United States,” according to the website. The law takes effect at the beginning of the 2020-21 school year. “For social studies in kindergarten through eighth grade, all grade levels were represented during the curriculum committee meetings. Based on a speciﬁc requirement from the Department of Education, the LGBTQIA+ (instruction) has been embedded and woven into the curriculum,” Okerson said.

ON THE ROAD PETER PERROTTA

2020 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid

f it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck … guess what? It’s a duck. Why try to disguise it? When I see those television commercials for minivans that try and make it seem cool for the average soccer mom or dad to be driving a minivan, I just shake my head. In recent years the minvan has fallen out of favor. So, the marketers now want to try and make it something it’s not. Why try and pretend? It’s a minPeter Perrotta ivan, aka a duck. “Sell the sizzle”. That’s what an old car sales manager used to tell me. What that meant to me was: don’t sell something for what it’s not. Sell the sizzle of what it is. So after one recent week behind the wheel of the 2020 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Limited minivan, I must admit, there is a lot of sizzle to sell here folks. Before we get started, though, if you are looking for the wind-in-your-face driving experience of an athletic BMW or Mercedes, this is not where you look. Instead, what you get in the 2020 Chrysler Pacifica is a good, solid, all around, utilitarian vehicle that can be used for a multitude of transport and cargo tasks without breaking a sweat. Moreover, if you are approaching 65 years of age – like me – it’s a very comfortable vehicle to get into and out of without bending or twisting your back. Once you sit down inside it’s tremendously comfortable. If you are the designated driver to transport your sister-in-law, and mother-in-law and father-in-law to your son’s birthday dinner, it passes the test with flying colors. On the other hand, is this mini-van going to turn heads when you drive down the street? Absolutely not. Is it going to afford you that exhilarating driving experience of the BMW 5 series? No way. But, let’s face it folks, it’s not fair to criticize the minivan for what it isn’t. We must appraise it for what it is. The 2020 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Limited – the model I drove for one week – is the only minivan currently on the market that is offered as a hybrid version. To make it even better, this model from Chrysler is

2020 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid

a plug-in hybrid that can be operated as an electric-only model, with a full range of 30 miles on the electric only ride. More impressively, when you use it as a combined electric/gas option (the vehicle switches itself back and forth on an asneeded basis) it gets a whopping 82 miles per gallon. When in use as a gas-only vehicle, it gets a still solid 30 miles per gallon. For me, it’s hard to believe that none of the other minivan manufacturers (especially Honda and Toyota) don’t offer a hybrid version of their minivans. I’m not sure why that is. It may be due to the fact that the minivan segment of the car selling market has shrunk drastically from what it once was about 20 years ago. My ﬁrst job in the car selling business was at a popular Honda dealership in South Jersey back in 2003. At that time, we had a waiting list for people who wanted to buy the popular Honda Odyssey minivan of about six months. Moreover, we sold every one of those Odysseys at full sticker price, with no discount. Such is not the case these days, obviously as the once-popular minivan has fallen out of fashion favor for the much sexier and aggressive looking SUV and crossover models now available on the market. Nonetheless, the minivan has survived. And, this one from Chrysler has won many accolades from the automotive press for

being top-of-the-line in its class. In its review of the 2020 Pacifica, the editors at Car and Driver magazine simply stated that it is “the best minivan you can buy – and better than most SUVs too. “We like the minivan so much, in fact, that we have named it to our 10 best Trucks and SUVs list multiple times,” write the editors of Car and Driver. Personally, I’m not so sure that I am enamored as much as they are with the Pacifica. When I first took the wheel behind this Pacifica it instantly brought back memories to when my youngest son was 2 years old and my wife and I carted his whole world around with us in our Dodge Caravan minivan. At that time, my parents were still alive and living in Florida, so the minivan did the job it was designed to do on that several trips a year we made to St. Augustine. This time around, while it took me a day or two to get used to driving a minivan again, I must admit that by the end of the week I was quite impressed with the Pacifica. It’s luxurious, comfortable, practical and very useful. It’s just not all that exciting to drive. The Velvet Red Pearl colored Pacifica Hybrid I tested for the week carries a base price of $45,845. My tester was added the extra options of: $795 for the S appearance

package; $995 for the advanced safety technology group and $1,895 for the tripanel panoramic moon roof. When you add in the $1,495 for destination and delivery charges, the bottom line sticker price on this tester comes in at $51,025. The EPA estimates that the average annual fuel cost of operating this hybrid comes in at a miserly $1,050 per year. Most people spend more than that a year buying coffee at Wawa. This vehicle has not been rated by the government for the crash safety test yet. However, this Pacifica Hybrid does receive a very impressive 10 out of 10 rating for the government’s fuel economy and greenhouse gas rating – which most people hardly pay attention to. The interior of the Pacifica is well appointed. Chrysler’s Uconnect infotainment system works well, for the most part. I had some trouble with it getting to understand my voice commands, but that was the only glitch. Overall, this Pacific, especially the hybrid version, is well worth considering if you are in the market for such a vehicle. Peter Perrotta’s On The Road column appears regularly.

GOP lawmakers slam Murphyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cuts to horse racing industry

emocratic Gov. Phil Murphyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to cut $20 million in funding to New Jerseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s horse racing industry is being met with criticism from two local Republican lawmakers who say the governor is jeopardizing the industry. The funding was signed into law in 2019 as a way to help Monmouth Park (thoroughbred racing), the Meadowlands (thoroughbred racing and harness racing) and Freehold Raceway (harness racing) bolster purses and increase races, according to a press release from the New Jersey Assembly Republicans. Last year was the ďŹ rst year for the program, which was designed to run for ďŹ ve years, and proved to be successful while meeting or exceeding economic growth benchmarks in the 2019 law, according to

the press release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s horse racing industry stands alone in providing economic, environmental and entertainment values like no other business in New Jersey,â&#x20AC;? Assemblyman Ron Dancer (R-Monmouth, Ocean, Middlesex, Burlington) was quoted as saying in the press release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With an estimated 42,000 horses on more than 7,200 farms that consist of 176,000 acres of tax-paying open space and green pastureland, the horse racing and breeding industry provides more than 13,000 jobs with a majority of the jobs being held by thousands of blue-collar New Jersey workers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With unemployment in the state at historic levels, it is necessary and essential to continue the investment in the economic powerhouse that we know the horse racing

industry to be,â&#x20AC;? Dancer said. Asked for a comment by Newspaper Media Group about Murphyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reported decision to cut funding from the horse racing industry, Dennis Drazin, the chairman and CEO of Darby Development LLC, the operators of Monmouth Park, said the reported action â&#x20AC;&#x153;is not a ďŹ nal decision. The budget process is ongoing and we are hopeful the subsidy is restored.â&#x20AC;? A message left by Newspaper Media Group seeking comment from ofďŹ cials at Freehold Raceway was not returned. Newspaper Media Group reached out to a spokesman for the governor to obtain Murphyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response to the Republicansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; press release regarding the funding reduction, but a statement was not provided. Assemblyman Rob Clifton (R-Monmouth) was quoted in the press release

saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Horse racing is an industry that employs thousands of people directly and indirectly, and these cuts will have farreaching negative effects in our communities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If it were to happen, it would put more New Jerseyans out of work and on the long line waiting to get beneďŹ ts that may never come from Gov. Murphyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Labor Department. It is an insult that borders on cruelty,â&#x20AC;? Clifton said. According to the press release from the Republicans, as Murphy signed the legislation into law a year ago, he noted the importance of the horse racing industry as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a key economic engine, supporting thousands of jobs and attracting tourists and fans from around the world.â&#x20AC;?

Howell woman apprehended in death of four puppies

Howell woman has been apprehended after being charged with four counts of animal cruelty in June, Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher J. Gramiccioni announced. Tricia Jaccoma, 24, was apprehended on Sept. 4 after being a fugitive for nearly three months, according to the Monmouth County Prosecutorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s OfďŹ ce. In response to a request for additional information, a spokesman for the prosecutor said the location where Jaccoma was apprehended could not be provided. Jaccoma and Daniel McDonald, 25, were charged in June with four counts of third degree animal cruelty with respect to the deaths of four German shepherd puppies that were found deceased on a proper-

ty in Howell where they were temporarily residing, according to the press release In addition to the animal cruelty charges that were lodged against them for allegedly failing to provide the puppies with the necessary care, McDonald and Jaccoma were each charged with multiple counts of third degree receiving stolen property for being in possession of the stolen puppies from a farm in Somerset County, according to the prosecutorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ofďŹ ce. The remains of two deceased German shepherd puppies were found in a ďŹ re pit on the property in Howell on May 18. The Howell Police Department and the Monmouth County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Law Enforcement Division, conducted an investigation

Since Dave’s nature column was written in September 1986, more research has been done on monarch butterfly migration, as well as on the harmful impacts of many chemical herbicides and pesticides, not just Agent Orange. The annual journey of monarch butterflies still amazes. In Cape May, the New Jersey Audubon Society now monitors monarch butterflies each fall as they congregate on the peninsula in preparation for their flight across the Delaware Bay. If you get a chance this fall, be sure to visit to see migrating birds and butterflies.

to get the same protection. With all this loss of life-forms, and with our growing interest in genetic engineering, genetic diversity becomes more important, even as it’s being threatened. That means we must protect natural areas worldwide, protect native plants and animals, and learn more about the effects of our pesticides and other chemicals before it’s too late. You have read about possible links between the herbicide Agent Orange and cancer. Agent Orange contains 2,4-D, a common herbicide. Recent studies point toward a connection between 2,4-D and three cancers in humans, including Hodgkin’s disease. Given that everything is connected to everything else, we need to proceed carefully. Not only do we not know who lives in the world with us, but we don’t even know what the majority of chemical substances we manufacture are doing to them or us.
