Waste Management tapped to operate county landfill By MARK ROSMAN Managing Editor
T
he Monmouth County Board of Freeholders has unanimously authorized the award and execution of a landfill facility service agreement with Waste Management of New Jersey Inc. Under the terms of the agreement, the corporation will operate the Monmouth County Reclamation Center in Tinton Falls. Garbage from the county’s municipalities is transported to the facility. During a meeting on Dec. 8, Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone said the county is not selling the landfill property or the infrastructure at the reclamation center, but is hiring a corporation to operate the sprawling facility.
Arnone and freeholders Susan M. Kiley, Lillian G. Burry, Patrick Impreveduto and Dominick DiRocco voted “yes” on a motion to pass a resolution which designates Waste Management of New Jersey Inc. as the landfill’s new operator. Arnone said the decision to have the county step away from operating the landfill was made because the deficit associated with the facility was “getting deeper and deeper, through no fault of the county employees who work at the landfill.” He said representatives of the county’s human services department will meet with the employees who will be displaced by the change in the landfill’s operator and discuss their employment options.

13 Howell educators honored By CHARLES DAYE Staff Writer
A
total of 13 educators in the Howell K-8 School District have been selected as New Jersey Exemplary Educators for 2020. The goal of the New Jersey Department of Education’s Exemplary Educator recognition program is to identify outstanding educators for special recognition, alternating between elementary (Pre-K to 5) and secondary (6-12) every year.

Exemplary Educators exhibit strong knowledge and skills, an inspiring presence and a positive impact on students, colleagues and the school community. The nominee must have a rating of Effective or Highly Effective on his or her most recent evaluation, according to the website. Of the 93 educators chosen from across New Jersey in 2020, 13 Howell educators have been selected for the honor.
“These 13 educators serve as a shining example of the many great colleagues and staff members who work throughout the school district. We are extremely proud of this recognition and of these educators’ commitment to their students,” Superintendent of Schools Joseph Isola said.

Dress Up And Enjoy The Prom By Paul Hall
I
t’s big, it’s bold, it’s flashy — it’s The Prom. The lowercase prom is also big, bold and flashy, regardless of where you are in the United States, but in this case The Prom is a new film from director Ryan Murphy (Glee). Broadway stars Dee Dee Allen (Meryl Streep) and Barry Glickman (James Corden) open their new musical to mostly scathing reviews. One critic delivers the harshest blow, calling them narcissistic celebrities. Of course they are, but they don’t like hearing that fact from someone else. So they find a cause du jour to exert their influence on: A young girl in Indiana is pushing for an inclusive prom. So it’s everyone on the bus from the Big Apple to the Midwest. The PTA is fighting young Emma (Jo
Ellen Pellman), who just wants to attend the prom with her girlfriend. They make it clear she is not welcome to bring another girl as a date to this school event. But school Principal Tom Hawkins (KeeganMichael Key) is on Emma’s side and is trying to find a way to help. Enter Dee Dee, Barry, Angie (Nicole Kidman) and Trent (Andrew Rannells). The stars descend on the unsuspecting town, attempting to use their status to help Emma. But are they really there for Emma or is this simply about rehabbing their own images? Get ready to sing and dance your way through some topical social issues in this fight to have a prom where everyone is welcome. This is a film that is going to polarize some. The country as a whole is split at the moment, and as one group is called out for their faults, they will fight back and the others will cheer, but when the

tables are turned, the responses are reversed. The fact is, many individuals think some of these stereotypes don’t exist. Because of the subject matter, many will be on the defensive and won’t let the true joy of the film come through, and that will be a shame. Streep, Corden, Kidman and Rannells embrace their roles as stereotypical Broadway celebs. From frontline stars to bit players, they embody characters who you hate for their vanity, but love for their heart. Pellman is an amazing talent who just must play Drew Barrymore’s daughter at some point in her career. A dead ringer for a young Barrymore, Pellman delivers a performance that soundly represents
the feelings of teens across the country in similar situations. She is the backbone here, and I wish she would have had even more time in the spotlight. Her song and dance number to “Zazz” with Kidman had me standing and dancing (sure, I was in my own house, but it was catchy). And I really love Keegan-Michael Key. Between this and Jingle Jangle (Netflix), Key has shown an incredible range that many of us always knew he had. The Prom does struggle a bit along the way, but in a year filled with dread and problems, it’s time to dance, sing and try to put the past in our rear view. Don’t forget your own personal struggles, but look forward to what a new day will bring. Don’t give up your dreams, whether an inclusive prom or a good review or both. Just find it within yourself to be the best you can be and “Love Thy Neighbor” because “Tonight Belongs to You.” The Prom gives us that message in song, but we all need to listen.

Recount confirms O’Donnell victory in Howell council race By CHARLES DAYE Staff Writer
HOWELL – A recount of election results has conďŹ rmed that Repbublican Evelyn O’Donnell has been re-elected to her second four-year term on the Howell Township Council. O’Donnell held off a challenge from Democrat Andre de Garmeaux, who was seeking his ďŹ rst term, in the Nov. 3 election. According to results posted online by the Monmouth County Clerk’s OfďŹ ce, O’Donnell received 15,415 votes and De Garmeaux received 15,095 votes. The ďŹ nal vote totals following the recount were not immediately available. On Dec. 15, O’Donnell told the TriTown News the recount increased her winning margin by an additional 10 votes. “The Democratic Party certainly had every right to ask for a recount and I had no objection to their request and stated that to the judge on the morning of the hearing. Certainly I am ready to put that portion of the election process behind me and I am anxious to continue working for the residents of Howell,â€? O’Donnell said. “I would like to take this opportunity to wish Howell a wonderful holiday season. I hope the season ďŹ nds everyone safe and healthy. Our reorganization meeting will be Jan. 5 and I look forward to a new beginning and a new year with my fellow council members,â€? she said. State Superior Court Judge Linda Grasso Jones, sitting in Freehold, granted a request from de Garmeaux for a recount of the results nearly three weeks after Election Day. On Dec. 11, de Garmeaux posted a concession on his social media.
“With all the concerns over ‘mail in’ ballots and about a 1% difference between the candidates, a recount of all the votes was completed. After watching the recount up close and personal, the concerns were not what you might have thought,â€? de Garmeaux said. “Many votes got mailed in ‘without’ the ballot in the envelope, or with a P.O. box as an address, or with no signature, and were therefore not counted. “When provisional ballots (cast at polling locations on Nov. 3) were counted, the system kicked them out as duplicate if a vote had already been cast by mail – preventing voter fraud. “The system they have in place, even with COVID restrictions, worked near awlessly. Redundancies are built in and the (election) commissioners and staff work hand in glove to make sure everyone’s vote had a chance to be counted. The recount left the race in about a 1% deďŹ cit for this rookie candidate,â€? de Garmeaux said. “I truly hope the incumbent serves the town well. I look forward to seeing how she will make good on her promise to ‘stop the building,’ â€? he said. The Howell Township Republican County Committee posted a message on social media congratulating O’Donnell on her re-election. “The recount requested by the Howell Democrats is over and Evelyn O’Donnell won again. In fact, she picked up more votes during the recount. ‌ Based on the election outcome, the Howell GOP will continue to maintain a (3-2) majority on the Township Council and deliver responsible good government.â€?

Kicking Off A New Decade Of Movies 1980 Offered Filmgoers “Ordinary People,” an “Urban Cowboy,” “The Elephant Man” and More. By Meredith Ennis, ReMIND Magazine
L
ooking back, 1980 offered movie fans a wide array of films from which to choose, ranging from the scary to the silly, the controversial to the soon-to-be-classic. 1980 gave audiences a number of “firsts,” including the initial onscreen appearance of Jason (Friday the 13th), Robin Williams’ first big movie role and Robert Redford’s directorial debut. Compared to the big-budget, special effects-laden films like The Empire Strikes Back, Flash Gordon was positively lo-fi. But its campy charms and soundtrack from Queen have made this space opera starring Sam J. Jones and Melody Anderson into a cult favorite.
PHOTO CREDIT: ORDINARY PEOPLE: © 1980 PARAMOUNT PICTURES
The Friday the 13th franchise (now totaling 12 films) centered on the murderous impulses of hockey mask-wearing Jason Voorhees. After her turn in Halloween a few years before, Jamie Lee Curtis reunited with director John Carpenter for The Fog. Curtis also starred in Prom Night, which came out in the summer of 1980.
The Elephant Man, directed by David Lynch and starring John Hurt, Anthony Hopkins, Anne Bancroft and John Gielgud, earned eight Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Adapted Screenplay. A public outcry ensued when the film, which tells the story of a severely deformed man living in late 19th century London, was not honored with an award nomination for its makeup effects, prompting the Academy to create a category for Best Makeup the next year. Ordinary People marked Robert Redford’s first directorial foray. The heartbreaking and award-winning film starred Donald Sutherland, Mary Tyler Moore, Timothy Hutton and Judd Hirsch. Leaving disco behind after his turn in Saturday Night Fever, John Travolta teamed up with Debra Winger for Urban Cowboy, a film that capitalized on the era’s love for “lite” country artists, a la
the likes of Kenny Rogers, Dolly Parton, Mickey Gilley and others. Comedy wasn’t absent from the list of 1980 releases. Chevy Chase and Goldie Hawn were paired in Seems Like Old Times. Kristy McNichol and Tatum O’Neal played the female leads in the teen sex comedy Little Darlings. Perhaps more notably, Robin Williams made his first big-screen appearance alongside Shelley Duvall in Robert Altman’s musical comedy Popeye. Sidney Poitier directed Stir Crazy, starring Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor — reuniting the two after 1976’s Silver Streak. The film eventually became the third highest-grossing film of the year in America (behind The Empire Strikes Back and 9 to 5). It’s fair to say 1980 had something for every movie fan to enjoy, and many of these titles have stood the test of time and are enjoyed still today.
What do you think of that first episode shocker on ‘Big Sky?’ Question: [Spoiler Alert] I am totally shocked that Ryan Phillippe’s character was killed off on the premiere episode of ABC’s Big Sky. Phillippe was the reason I tuned in! I will be curious how the ratings go as the season progresses. This could go really well for ABC or be a total bomb. What are your thoughts? — Melinda B. Matt Roush: I do know that the fate of his character Cody Hoyt comes straight from the source material: C.J. Box’s thriller The Highway – and I was shocked when I read it, especially since Cody had been the hero of an earlier Box book, which might have given the twist more impact if there had been more context to his background. That said, it’s obviously a calculated risk to do something that drastic that early, but I imagine that’s what drew David E. Kelley to the idea of adapting it for network TV. This kind of reminds me of what it would have
been like to see Psycho upon its release in 1960, having no idea that Janet Leigh would meet her fate in the shower halfway through the film. As the focus now turns on Cody’s survivors, his estranged wife, played by Katheryn Winnick, and his P.I. partner/lover, Kylie Bunbury and their search for the kidnapped sisters, we’ll see how many follow. It’s not easy for any network show to break through these days, so I give Big Sky some credit for trying to make some noise early in the game.

What is so valuable about New Jersey’s forests?
I
n the not-so-distant past, the value of forests was based on the timber generated from logging. Forests without commercial timber potential were thought to be nearly worthless. Today, much more is known about forest values. Forests are considered priceless for providing wildlife habitat and many “ecosystem services,” including filtering impurities from the air and water, absorbing and storing carbon from the atmosphere, and soaking up flood waters. Forests are also valuable for recreation and their cooling effect in summer. A new State Forest Action Plan produced by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection examines the value of the Garden State’s forests and the many threats they face – most prominently the impacts of a warming climate. The plan proposes a number of actions to protect New Jersey’s forests, which collectively cover about two million acres of this state we’re in. “In the past, forest managers looked at forests through a narrow lens … Timber value is no longer an important forest attribute for many New Jersey residents,” State Forester John Sacco explains in the plan’s introduction. “This land works hard for our nine million residents, providing clean water, much-needed recreation, wildlife and rare plant habitat and jobs,” Sacco added. “Our urban forests keep cities cooler in summer, filter air and water pollution and make our neighborhoods attractive places to live. “Our forests fix enough atmospheric CO2 (carbon dioxide) each year to offset the annual CO2 emissions of Newark, our
largest city. They are the front line in our but now atmospheric carbon sources.” fight against climate change.” The forest plan suggests several acThe State Forest Action Plan is a 10- tions, including: year strategic plan required under the fed• Conserving our forests’ biological dieral Farm Bill for New Jersey to be eligible versity; for federal forest stewardship funding. • Maintaining the health and vitality of Much hard work has gone into the action forest ecosystems; plan, which contains substantial informa• Conserving and maintaining soil and tion not found in previous plans. water resources of our forests; The federal forestry program has three • Maintaining forest contributions to priorities: protecting forests from threats; global carbon cycles. enhancing public benefits from trees and The forest plan notes that the Earth’s forests; and conserving warming climate is changand managing working ing New Jersey’s forests.

how carbon is captured and stored over time throughout the forest above or below ground, in wood and roots, and in soil and leaves. Many new studies, synthesized in the publication “Wild Carbon,” point to conserving undisturbed forests as the best strategy for sequestering carbon as part of the battle to slow climate change. The draft State Forest Action Plan mentions the Sourlands region of central New Jersey as one place where proforestation should be considered, but emerging science suggests this strategy should play a much larger role in many of New Jersey’s older, maturing forests. Protecting sequestered carbon by fostering the eventual re-establishment of old growth forest areas on our public lands can even create a New Jersey “carbon market.” As part of our response to global warming, forest trees may be far more valuable being left to grow old than anyone ever dreamed. For all those who love New Jersey’s forests and want to learn of their current status and what the future might hold, be sure to check out the State Forest Action Plan at https://njparksandforests.org/forest/njsfap/docs/njsfap20201015.pdf To find out more about the benefits of proforestation, go to the “Wild Carbon” website at https://www.sweetwatertrust. org/images/WildWorks_V1_WildCarbon. pdf

ON THE ROAD PETER PERROTTA
2021 Nissan Rogue SL AWD
I
find most television car commercials to be almost fairy tale like, especially around holiday time. I mean, who really gets a new car for Christmas, or whichever holiday you happen to celebrate? However, the commercial for the newly redesigned 2021 Nissan Rogue breaks the mold a bit. It features a family driving the Rogue who can’t decide what they want to do: go to the mountains, offPeter Perrotta road adventuring, drive in the snow or simply just go to the movies. Of course, it’s a good thing they have their new Rogue because with the all wheel drive model five drive modes are now available: off-road, snow, standard, eco and sport. All you have to do is engage the drive-mode selector mounted on the center console and off you go. Well, does life imitate commercials or is the commercial imitating life here? I will leave that one to the philosophers in the crowd. But, I would have to say that after driving the new 2021 Nissan Rogue SL AWD for one week recently, I really enjoyed the new look and feel of the Rogue, and especially had fun playing with drive mode selector choosing what style I wanted to drive in on any particular day. Nissan really went back to the drawing board in doing this redesign of its biggest selling model and gave the Rouge a muchneeded makeover from the ground up, inside and out. The previous generation Rogue, while popular, suffered from what I would call “ho-hum-ness”. For most people, it was an OK compact SUV that could get the job done but didn’t offer anything overwhelming that would make it stand out in the crowd. The new Rogue offers more attractive styling – featuring a bit shorter and lower stance. It has a boxier, more rugged or sporty design. The interior has been upgraded with more up-to-date ergonomics and the 2.5 liter four cylinder engine gets a power boost to 181 horsepower.
2021 Nissan Rogue SL AWD
Moreover, the chassis and ride quality were also upgraded giving it more adept ride and handling capabilities. “The all new Rogue was purposely designed to meet all the needs of today’s young families,” says Mike Colleran, senior vice president, Nissan U.S. Marketing and Sales. “Rogue is playing to win in the midsize crossover game with the ideal mix of expressive design, advanced technology, safety, comfort and versatility,” Colleran said. The editors at Car and Driver seem to think the new design is an overall winner. “Historically, the Rogue has sold well against segment leaders such as Honda CRV, Mazda CX-5 and Volkswagen Tiguan,” writes Car and Driver. “But, it wasn’t as good overall, languishing far down in our rankings. With this redesign, Nissan’s money maker turns up the charm in an attempt to shake off its history of mediocrity. We think they have been relatively successful (with the redesign).”
I would have to agree. After driving this new Rogue for one week, I found it to be attractive – inside and out – comfortable, peppy with enough new pizzazz to lift it out of the ho-hum category into a serious segment contender. The model I drove – the SL AWD – carries a base price of $33,400. My tester added premium paint as an option for $395, $385 for a floor mat and cargo area protection package and $1,095 for destination and handling. The bottom line sticker price on my tester came in at $35,275. The Rogue is also available in the base model S (starting at $26.745), SV ($28,425) and Platinum ($36,525). The fuel economy ratings for the new Rogue have not been released, but Nissan claims the fuel economy has been improved slightly to 29 miles per gallon overall for the all wheel drive model and up to 30 mpg for the front wheel drive Rogues. According to Car and Driver, on their 200 mile highway test drive, the new Rogue got an impressive 32 miles per gallon.
The new Rogue is the first Nissan to feature the Japanese auto maker’s Nissan Safety Shield 360 technology. This new technology package includes: automatic emergency braking with pedestrian protection; blind spot warning; rear cross traffic alert; lane departure warning; high beam assist; and rear automatic braking. Also new in this Rogue is something Nissan calls its Vehicle Motion Control. This feature works in conjunction with its four wheel drive system and drive mode selector to provide a smoother more secure ride by making adjustments depending on the driver’s driving style and road conditions. Overall, the newly designed Rogue is worth checking out if you are considering purchasing or leasing a compact to midsized SUV or crossover.

announced the switch to fully remote instruction on Dec. 15. Isola said he believes in-person instruction is important, but he called the move to fully remote instruction necessary. “This is extremely unfortunate, but necessary news I deliver to you. It is not something I wanted to do. I think everyone understands my commitment to in-person instruction and that I believe it is what is best for children for their social and emotional well-being, and for their academic needs, all while maintaining virtual (remote) options for families that feel more comfortable in that setting,” Isola said in a message to the community’s parents.

The move to fully remote instruction “is in the best interest of our school district. All along I said I would make the decision that is best for our students and staff and I am absolutely confident this (change) is what is best for our school district at this point,” he said. The superintendent said he is committed to resuming in-person instruction on Jan. 11 for students whose parents have selected that option. “This timeframe will allow our community to hit the reset button, to make sure we are getting healthy and preparing to re-enter school buildings that are clean, healthy and safe environments for our students,” Isola said. The superintendent said there were about 4,500 children attending Howell’s schools, plus 700 educational staff mem-
bers. He said recent coronavirus concerns have led to more than 1,000 of those individuals being excluded from entering a school. “When you are talking about over 1,000 (people) being excluded, that is a huge percentage (of the in-school number). It becomes difficult to manage that and to make sure we have professionals and support staff in place to meet the needs of the children. I think this reset moment will be good for our community,” Isola said. Isola said keeping the schools open for as long as administrators were able to do that “has really been a community effort and we should be proud of that. While I am disappointed to deliver this news (going to fully remote instruction), I want to really confirm it is necessary.”
BUSINESS BRIEFS
The Monmouth Regional Chamber of Commerce (MRCC) is reaching out to businesses, organizations and entrepreneurs throughout the area to see how they are faring at this time and to determine how the chamber may be able to assist them. The MRCC is the largest nonprofit volunteer chamber in Monmouth County, with membership that spans the entire region. The chamber’s mission is to promote business, enhance economic development and serve as a catalyst to improve the overall quality of life in local communities, according to a press release. Chamber officials said although they have had to postpone some of the organization’s regular in-person events and activities during the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, they were able to transition to virtual meetings and programs. They said the weekly “Perk” meetings, held every Friday morning, have continued to bring together large groups of chamber members and future members since mid-March to hear guest speakers, offer introductions, garner useful information and exchange testimonials. There have also been “after-hours” social events and collection drives. The chamber’s membership drive for 2021 is underway, with free membership for the remainder of 2020 for those who join now. For more information, visit www.monmouthregionalchamber.com or contact the chamber directly by email at info@monmouthregionalchamber.com

First Tuesday programming for Art Before/After Hours returns on Feb. 2. Recordings of previous events are available on Zimmerli at Home Videos, including programming that marked Day With(out) Art/World AIDS Day on Dec. 1. The Zimmerli hosted a Zoom panel discussion about the historical and contemporary intersections of HIV/AIDS advocacy and the arts, with an emphasis on the role the museum’s late director Thomas Sokolowski played. In addition, a new documentary short about Sokolowski, One Singular Sensation, created by Rutgers alumnus Samuel Vladimirsky, is available. News regarding operations will be posted on the museum’s home page.
Waste Management tapped (Continued from page 1)
“At the present time, we are holding county positions that are currently open for people coming from the landfill. That might not be the case if we wait three to five years if we kick the can down the road. “We are very confident every employee at the landfill is going to have a bona fide offer (of employment). People who can retire will be given that opportunity and may actually go to work for Waste Management. We will also have certain staff on site,” Arnone said. County officials said the decision to engage a corporation to operate the landfill will yield millions of dollars in savings. According to the resolution, county officials were authorized to solicit a Request for Qualifications and a Request for Proposals to seek qualified companies to operate and maintain the landfill. In February, the county received quali-
fications from Waste Management of New Jersey Inc. and Urbaser Inc., both of which were deemed qualified by the county. In June, a Request for Proposals was issued by the county to Waste Management of New Jersey Inc. and Urbaser Inc. In July, the county received a proposal from Waste Management of New Jersey Inc., which is a Delaware corporation that is authorized to do business in New Jersey. The county did not receive a proposal from Urbaser Inc. Negotiations were conducted between representatives of the county and Waste Management of New Jersey Inc. and an agreement was reached, according to the resolution. The awarding and execution of the agreement is subject to the consent and approval of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection pursuant to the terms of the requirements contained in the county’s permits for the landfill.
