Affordable Housing Comes To Succasunna With Condo Units
European Craftsmanship Since 1995
By Henry M. Holden andolph-based Morris Habitat for Humanity plans to build 12 condo-style units in two buildings, each having six units. According to Blair Bravo, Morris Habitat for Humanity’s chief executive officer, they will be actively marketed. “We must comply with the Fair Housing Act. That means we will advertise in the four-county area for this project,” said Bravo. With a tract of land donated by the township, plans are moving ahead to construct the new condo units on Main Street, in Succasunna, the site of the township’s former public works garage. The land has been cleaned and recent soil samples show no contaminants. The tract is about one-and-a-half acres. Bravo said the home ownership program focuses on the elderly and veterans

first, but said any low-income family can apply. “We partner with the families and with the municipalities to comply the town’s affordable housing obligation,” she said. Roxbury families, who are now renting homes at a high monthly rate, will be able to apply for home ownership. “We will hold several orientation meetings for interested persons to learn more about the program and the requirements,” said Bravo. “We will then hand out applications.” Habitat will vet the prospective homeowners. “The people are vetted for income eligibility, for mortgage readiness, the ability to do sweat equity, and need, meaning that they are paying more than 30 percent of their income in rent, or are living in substandard conditions, such
as doubling up with others,” said Bravo. They must be ‘mortgage ready.’ “We (Habitat) hold the mortgage loan. We look at the mortgage application perhaps with a more understanding eye, differently than a bank, but nevertheless, we still have to comply with The Affordable Housing rules and regulations. “’Mortgage ready’ means that their credit scores must be no lower than 600 and that they have a decent debt to income ratio. In other words, they don’t have a lot of debt. They are willing to pay a mortgage, and they’re willing to go through homeownership education to learn about the responsibilities of homeownership. Their income would fall between $30,000 and $72,000 a year adjusted for household size. A four-per-
son family, if their income is $72,000 a year, they may qualify for a two-bedroom unit.” Every application is assigned a number, and those numbers correspond to a bingo ball. The ball is put in a bingo machine and then applicants are selected through this lottery selection. “The homes will sell for between $125,000 for a two bedroom and $150,000 for the three-bedroom unit,” said Bravo. The state gives us these parameters. It cost continued on page 4

Randolph Recognizes Music In The Schools Month
By Jane Primerano aying the arts are “embedded in the culture in Randolph,” Superintendent of Schools Jennifer Fano proclaimed March Music in Our Schools Month and Youth Art Month. Quoted in the school district’s press release on the proclamations, Fano said, “The study of music contributes to young people’s development through heightened skills in listening, reading, self-expression and creativity.” Frank Perrone, the district’s director of Visual and Performing Arts, accepted the proclamations from Fano and Board of Education President Al Matos at a board meeting. In his statement to the
S
board of education while accepting the proclamation, Perrone said: “In the fast-paced world that we live in, I think that it’s important to take a step back during the month of March to look at the true benefits of music and art in the child’s education. I’m proud to say that no matter where you look in the Randolph school district, music and art are alive and well.” Almost as if to usher in the month, three Randolph High School students played in the All-State Band Concert on Sat., Feb. 25, at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark. Senior John Yager’s instrument is bass saxophone, junior Christopher Mantell plays alto saxo-
phone and sophomore Andre Hance played mallets in the concert. Statewide, 580 students auditioned for the band and 160 were accepted. Randolph is well represented on the visual arts side as well. Senior Kayla Legatt is part of an exhibition at the 70 South Gallery in Morristown. Legatt is enrolled in AP photography. The exhibit is entitled “Heartstrings,” and focuses on the themes of love, beauty and emotion. Legatt entered photographs she took on a trip to the Canadian Rockies. The exhibit hangs through April. The gallery specializes in photography. Located on South Street it and provides spaces for students at all levels to
work on their photography projects. In the schools, some 230 Randolph students participated in The Bands of Randolph in early March. District Band Night at the end of the month features 475 students and could feature
more if the township Fire Department didn’t enforce building occupancy limits, according to Board of Education member Susan Devito. Randolph High School also has a four-year dance program under the direc-
tion of teacher Michelle Adrianno. The students show off their moves in a dance showcase at the end of the year. The board’s press release quoted two residents who attended the board continued on page 5

cont. from front page between $150,000 and $175,000 per unit to build these homes. “We’re not getting $125,000 at the closing, we’re getting instead about $500 in monthly payments,” said Bravo. “Our mortgage is a zero interest, so they’re saving on that with a 30-year fixed mortgage. “The town gives us $600,000 out of the Affordable Housing Trust Fund. These are not taxpayer dollars, but come in through developers who were assessed a fee on their development project. The total cost is about $1,600,000 which is why we do fund-
raising, sponsorships, and donation of materials, and services, to make up the difference.” Sweat equity is really the keystone of the habitat program. “It’s volunteer labor that the homeowner will do in lieu of a down payment,” Bravo said. The family will put in between 300 and 400 hours of sweat equity building the home, and the homes of others. They will volunteer for eight hours, once a week, for about year. “This is a lot of time, so this is a program that’s not for the weak-hearted,” said Bravo. “The people
we approve are really motivated to get their lives in shape. These are folks who are already working hard in our community and want to build some equity in the community. “The homeowner must have about $1,000 to put down plus the closing costs which may come to about $3,000,” said Bravo. “We try to keep them on the low side by getting low-cost attorney fees and so forth. People don’t realize but we put an affordable deed restriction on the mortgage. If there is a second buyer down the road, they must go to a regular bank for their mortgage. There’s no
windfall, and there’s no handout here. We sell the homes to the folks, and they pay the property taxes and their utility bills. They also work to build the homes. These people are very enthusiastic about jumping up to the next level in society.” These are homes priced like starter homes.
“This is an opportunity for these homeowners to become a deeper part of the community,” she continued. “We will be going before the Roxbury Planning Board in March. Our goal is to break ground this summer. The homeowner selection process should
start sometime in May, and it’s about a three-month process. Our goal is to have at least one building framed by the end of the year.” Morris Habitat has been in business 32 years and has built 79 homes in the Morris County, and surrounding area, and has never had a mortgage foreclosure.

main reason we should have music in our school is so that every child can
have music lessons, and the same thing with art, so that they become appreciative. Part-time school district employee Antoinette Corbett said “I have so many children that I’ve worked with, that if it wasn’t for the arts, they wouldn’t have a place to be. It’s amazing how when they learn something in music it open them up to math in a fun way.”

Celebrating Lent At Resurrection Parish
By Henry M. Holden n March 4, Resurrection Parish in Randolph held its semi-annual Day of Reflection. Their guest speaker was Benedictine Father Jude Salus, OSB. The theme: “Journey with Christ through Lent - Forgiveness, Grace and Love.” Jude, has celebrated more than 40 years as a priest, and 26 years as pastor at Notre Dame of Mt. Carmel, in Cedar Knolls, before retiring in 2015. The day was a blend of prayer, humor, and insight, and began with a Continental breakfast at 8 a.m. followed by Jude’s presentation. More than 140 people spent the day honoring the forgiveness and love of
O
God. “With his help, we can have our daily faults and failings forgiven, and have our hearts changed,” said Jude. “Lent can make a difference in our relationship with God. Lent can be a time to grow more deeply in God’s grace, and accept His forgiveness.” Lent began as a way for Christians to remind themselves of the value of repentance. The austerity of the Lenten season was seen as similar to how people in the Old Testament fasted and repented in sackcloth and ashes. But modern-day Lent is a time of homecoming to Jesus. “Lent is not a penitential time alone, but a joyful time, when we can see other’s kindness, goodness,
laughter and smiles,” said Jude. “When we choose to see that love, then we’re gravitating into making ourselves available to others, that also makes us vulnerable. This availability, this vulnerability, what does that make us? Expectant! “If you want to see faults, and failures, knock yourself out. Most of us have a thousand. We’re human beings. If you want to see kindness, and gentleness, a sense of human joy, that’s there too. “You can’t change anyone but yourself. You can change your mind. You can change your attitude, by deciding to be calm and gentle, and that can change your direction. “Where are you looking
lately? Around your parish, around your table, around your families? How are you looking? If you want to see goodness and joy, is that on your Lenten Pilgrimage list?” Jude raised the question, is suffering a punishment? “When we have a family heartache, when there is illness, a diagnosis we don’t understand, is our loved one being punished? When you look at a crucifix how can you possibly say that God the Father is punishing his son? “Once we stop that attitude, once we realize that the suffering, like Christ’s, is redemptive, it causes us to come out of ourselves and bring us more lovingly not into the future, but to seize, and live in the
present moment, grateful for our faith, family and friends. “We don’t figure out our illnesses, and we can’t determine what is going to happen, but we can realize that it is our attitude, and it is our choice, to make a change. “When we get up in the morning we don’t say, ‘Jesus I’m up. Don’t let me sin.’ Is that the prayer we want to have? “Or maybe the prayer should be, ‘Jesus, let me be your hands, let me be your face, let me be your feet. Take me where someone needs to be lifted.’ Perhaps it’s your neighbor who needs help with her food shopping, or a lift to the doctor. “Isn’t that much more

dramatic than Jesus don’t let me sin? We must see now, this loving Jesus, not in ritual, but in that joy of walking with someone who loves us so much. He is our Savior and Lord, our unconditional lover, and unconditional friend. When we let that wash over us, we are not the same person. We can’t be, and that is what Lent is about.

Celebrating Lent... cont. from page 6 ing back with all our heart and understanding this God who loves us and inspires us is something we can’t take for granted.” Jude suggested one looks again at values, motivations, and willingness, despite life’s hurts to see Jesus’ footprints in that space. “Maybe we need to be more patient, maybe we should start listening more
often. Sometimes we don’t listen to the very old, or the very young. Maybe we should listen better. “Lent is a time to step back and see what are some of the changes you’d like to make,” said Jude. “And that nothing for you is going to be hurtful or hateful. Once you begin to do that, it begins to have that change effect. “As you’re celebrating your journey what things
happened providentially? Maybe you did get that diagnoses, maybe you lost your job, but maybe, just maybe, you said, ‘Jesus, point me in the right direction. Where do you want me to go? What do you want me to do?’ When you begin to trust him, and love him, you will start noticing that we become a lifeline, and the lifeline comes back to us.”

Acupuncture... What’s The Point? by Kearstin R. Tripi, L.Ac cupuncture and Traditional Chinese medicine has become increasingly popular over the past 25 years in the United States. However, many healthcare consumers are still unaware of this relatively painless and effective treatment. Acupuncture is useful in treating conditions such as musculoskeletal pain, stress, migraines, and infertility, to name a few. Some consumers are apprehensive about Acupuncture due to a fear of needles. However, unlike the hypodermic needles that are used to administer shots or take blood, Acupuncture needles are extremely thin. In some cases, the patient might experience a slight prick
A
or tingling sensation at the needle site, but most people report that the procedure is painless and quite relaxing. The efficacy of this ancient medicine speaks for itself and has helped Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine become a bigger part of mainstream healthcare. Every year, more and more physicians are opting to combine Eastern and Western treatments for their patients’ well-being. Research from the National Institute of Health supports this movement showing that Acupuncture is effective for use in pain management, osteoarthritis, postoperative or chemotherapy-related nausea, addiction, stroke rehabilitation, infertility and asthma, among others. The World
Health Organization also lists acupuncture’s efficacy in relieving anxiety, panic disorders and insomnia along with forty-two other medical conditions. Acupuncture is, in fact, a Science based medicine backed by research. Acupuncture is a modality of Traditional Chinese Medicine that originated in Ancient China over 5,000 years ago. The Ancient Chinese discovered that every living being has energy that flows through invisible meridians (energy lines) throughout the body. This energy, known as “Qi” is the motive life force. In healthy individuals the Qi flows smoothly through the channels/ meridians. Imbalance in the flow of Qi results in illness and/or
disease. The same basic principles are used in treating various conditions, today. Acupuncture can be used a sole method of treatment, but also works well as an adjunct therapy. How does Acupuncture Work? Multiple studies have shown that Acupuncture initiates various biological responses. There are several theories to explain how Acupuncture works. In a nutshell, Acupuncture helps the body to do what it was meant to do... heal itself. Some of the most common theories include: - Acupuncture reduces inflammation and relaxes muscles - Acupuncture stimulates
the release of endorphins, which relieve pain - Acupuncture stimulates the release of neurotransmitters (substances that that transmit nerve impulses to the brain) -Acupuncture has a profound effect on the Autonomic Nervous System - Acupuncture stimulates circulation - Acupuncture enhances the body’s immune response - Acupuncture influences the electrical currents of the body Does Acupuncture Hurt? Extremely fine needles are used in the treatment of Acupuncture, making the experience almost painless. Most patients don’t even feel the needles being inserted. The Acupuncture needles used are as fine as
a few hairs on your head. All of my patients find their Acupuncture treatments to be very relaxing. In fact, most people fall asleep during their treatment. What is a typical Acupuncture treatment like? Upon arrival the patient is asked to fill out a detailed health history questionnaire. Then, the acupuncturist will review the health history with the patient and go over the patient’s primary health concern and lifestyle. The acupuncturist will take the patient’s pulses and look at his/her tongue (In Chinese medicine the tongue and pulses are representative of the various organ/meridian systems and help in the diagnostic process). continued on next page

The number of Acupuncture treatments needed is based on the severity and chronicity of the condition. However, most patients experience relief after the very first treatment. What kind of needles are used? Tiny filiform needles are used for Acupuncture treatment. All of the needles are disposable, pre-sterilized and pre-packaged. After each treatment, the needles are thrown away
and new needles are used every time. Are there any side effects of Acupuncture treatment? Acupuncture is a safe treatment option, offering little to no side effects, making it an ideal alternative to more invasive procedures. Most people do not experience any ill side effects from Acupuncture. Occasionally, minor bruising can occur at the needle site.

Acorn Hall Exhibit Pays Tribute To Morris County WWI Contributions By J.L. Shively new exhibit featured throughout Acorn Hall opened on Sun., Feb. 19 in recognition of the 100th Anniversary of the United States entry into World War I which took place on April 6, 1917. The exhibit is entitled “1917: World War, Women’s Rights, and Weaponry Sciences,” and will be on display at the Morris County Historical Society’s Headquarters, the historic Acorn Hall until June. “We wanted to incorporate as many aspects of what was going on in 1917 as possible,” said Nicole Rizzuto, curator of Exhibits and Research with MCHS.

ATTENTION BUSINESS OWNERS There was much more going on than just the war in that year. “The year was the impetus of decision,” Rizzuto states, while elaborating on the fact that U.S. entrance into the war sparked many other movements which had already been smoldering. The inspiration behind the exhibit therefore is not
only the war but focuses on local women’s rights movements and Morris County contributions to weaponry sciences which helped aide the U.S. in strategic movements of the war. According to a press release “the exhibit honors the men and women who gave their lives during the war, highlights the cul-

Acorn Hall Exhibit... cont. from previous page during WWI. Roberts was a nurse from Madison. Along with other period appropriate clothing the exhibit features artifacts from WWI throughout every room of Acorn Hall. A WWI uniform is on display including camp material on loan from the Butler Museum and Historical Committee. A pop tent is featured along with a medical bag from the MCHS collection. The idea behind the exhibit with a mixture of war artifacts intermixed with everyday items is meant to show “how different things affected different aspects of people’s lives,” states Rizzuto. To showcase Morris County’s contribution
to the war effort when it came to weaponry Acorn Hall has dedicated space to Hudson Maxim, who worked on smokeless gunpowder and other technology advances the country needed to win WWI. There is also a photo of Dr. Guy Otis Brewster, whose Brewster-Heller Armor was a first attempt at making bullet proof vests. The photo shows Brewster demonstrating at Picatinny Arsenal. “I’m really excited about it [the exhibit],” states Rizzuto, who has done extensive research on these subjects. She goes on to explain that this exhibit, “shows how much Morris County impacted the rest of the world.”
Rizzuto explains how easy it is for locals to forget just how much local history can impact the world. The exhibit can be viewed while Acorn Hall is open on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Group tours of eight or more can be arranged by reservation. Tickets are $6 for adults, $5 for seniors $3 for students and free for children under the age of 12 and for MCHS members. For more information about Acorn Hall or the exhibit or to reserve a group tour contact MCHS at 973-267-3465 or visit the website at morriscountyhistory.org.

andolph High School senior Kayla Legatt has several photos featured in a new exhibit at Morristown’s 70 South Gallery. Legatt, who is enrolled in advanced placement photography with teacher
RHS Senior Shares Her Photos In Morristown Exhibit Jim King at RHS, said she has combined her two passions: travel and photography to take the photos for the exhibit. Legatt’s photos are on display in the gallery’s new “Heartstrings” exhibit which focuses on the
subject of love, beauty and emotion in its various forms. The exhibit will showcase the work of Meg Lyding, whose work brings the softness and sparkle of New York City, and Ed Surette, whose works feature pictures of things with
represent love: flowers. The gallery tries to feature the works of students in its show and selected Legatt’s works which tie in with the “Heartstrings” theme. “Photography gives me a voice of the world and an avenue to foster creativity,” Legatt said. “By using extreme angles, my goal is to open people up to experience the world from a dif-
ferent perspective.” All of Legatt’s photographs in the exhibit are from a recent trip to the Canadian Rockies which feature mountains, trees and water in “serene and calm” scenes in the snow. She took them while cross country skiing, snow-shoeing and dog sledding around Banff, Lake Louise and Canmore in Alberta.
“When people look at my work, I want them to feel as if they made the trip along with me; experiencing the biting cold, breathing in the clean, fresh mountain air, and appreciating the natural beauty that surrounds us. I deliberately put my pictures in black and white to reinforce the calming attitude I wish to portray.”

Fifth Graders Get Taste Of Success
ifth grade students at Center Grove Elementary School learned to become entrepreneurs through the school’s new TREP$ program. Children worked with teachers and each other to come up with ideas for the prototypes of things they wanted to create and then sold the items on Feb. 23 at an evening marketplace in the school gymnasium following a ribbon cutting ceremony. Students met after school with a team of fifth grade teachers who met with them to discuss their prototypes. The students then worked to create their items which they sold at tables set up in the school gymnasium. The students sold everything from homemade bracelets
to soaps, colorful bird houses, phone couches, healing pads and Emoji balls. Margot Berthier brainstormed what she could sell at the marketplace and came up with the idea for homemade gift bags. “I love giving gifts,” Margot said. “So I created my own gift bags.” Each of Margot’s gift bags featured an original design ranging from flowers to butterflies. Across the gymnasium, Layla Barjesteh and Melanie Park sold jewelry they created. Melanie made her own bead bracelets which she even modeled at the marketplace while partner Layla made string bracelets. Both girls said they were pleased with the positive response they received as they sold a bracelet to Center
Grove third grader Juliana Kusnier, a very happy customer. Jessica Blutig came up with the idea of stuffing colorful children’s socks with garbanzo beans to create phone couches for people to rest their cell phones while they are not using them. Jessica said she was very pleased with the large number of customers she had at the marketplace. Center Grove fifth grade teachers Mary Curtis, Tiffani Armstrong, Donna Marucci and Beata Darvig worked with the students in the TREP$ program, which received a generous grant from the Center Grove PTO. Fifth graders at Fernbrook Elementary School also enjoyed a similar program in the fall.

Turtle Back Zoo Helps To Save Sea Turtles With New Center
he Prudential Sea Turtle Recovery Center at Essex County Turtle Back Zoo opened last month. The County is partnering with the non-profit Sea Turtle Recovery to operate the facility, which will nurse cold-stunned or injured turtles back to health so they can be released back into the ocean. “The Sea Turtle Recovery expands our preservation and education programs and will heighten our visitors’ awareness about protecting animals and the environment,” said Essex County Executive Joseph N. DiVincenzo. “To be able to develop a Sea Turtle Rescue center here in Essex County and help the very animals after which our zoo is named is a great resource to the animal
rescue community and fills a great need. It’s a great example of how zoos and animal rescue organizations can work together to save animals and raise the public’s awareness about the dangers animals face.” Freeholder Patricia Sebold said “This is a marvelous addition to Turtle Back Zoo and is an example of the County Executive’s commitment to make this place successful.” As water temperatures drop this time of year in the Northeast (Virginia to Maine), especially in Cape Cod and Long Island, biologists and volunteers prepare for an average of more than 570 sea turtles that are stunned by the cold, a reaction that can lead to frostbite, malnutrition, dehydration, shock, pneumonia and possibly death. In
addition, sea turtles in the Atlantic Ocean are threatened by fishing line entanglement, plastic ingestion, boat strikes, and loss of natural nesting and feeding sites because of coastal development. In 2014, more than 700 live sea turtles washed ashore in the Northeast. The facility at Turtle Back Zoo joins eight other facilities in the region that have the capacity to care for cold stunned or injured sea turtles. At Essex County Turtle Back Zoo, an antiquated building was torn down and replaced with a modern 4,000-square-foot facility. The new building has five recovery tanks, life support systems, and an intensive care unit for more critically injured turtles. Zoo visitors will be able to see less crit-
ical patients while learning about the perils sea turtles face and what the public can do to help. Once the turtles have regained their health, they will be released back into their natural habitat. “Turtle Back Zoo already is a special place where children and families can learn to appreciate animals. Introducing the Sea Turtle Recovery Center helps take our educational programming to the next level and gives us an active role in protecting and preserving wild animals,” Turtle Back Zoo Director Brint Spencer said. “Having the rehabilitation center on site fits into our mission of conservation and expands the potential for animal awareness.” The Zoo is partnering with The Sea Turtle Re-
covery, a non-profit organization based in Northfield. The Sea Turtle Recovery is dedicated to the rehabilitation, preservation and conservation of sea turtles. Its current work extends throughout the state educating the public about the ecological role of sea turtles, threats they face, and ways to protect their
future. With the opening of the recovery center at Turtle Back Zoo, The Sea Turtle Recovery can begin to fulfill the other portion of its mission, which is to rehabilitate sea turtles for release back into the wild. More about the Sea Turtle Recovery can be found by visiting www.seaturtlerecovery.org.

“Changing majors is a big decision, and it isn’t a cheap one.” -CampusBooks Now more than ever, it pays to think before you go. 80% of college students change their majors. How do you decide on a major that fits you, the first time?
andolph High School junior Ajay Hariharan has been selected for the prestigious Summer Leaders Experience at West Point. “This is a great honor and will help prepare me for college,” Hariharan said. “I would love to attend a military academy. This will be a great experience for social purposes and also learning how rigorous a college education is.” Hariharan is a high school athlete and participates in fall cross country, spring track and has also competed on the swimming team for two years. He has a 4.4 weighted GPA, 3.6 unweighted GPA, he said. Randolph High School Principal Debbie Iosso said she was not surprised when she learned that Hariharan
had been accepted into this prestigious program. “Ajay is an exceptional young man,” Iosso said. “I could not be happier that he has found something that he is passionate about and really wants to work towards.” The program takes place at West Point, a United States Military Academy, and is for high school juniors who are going into their senior year of high school. Students enjoy a fast-paced program of ac-
ademic classes, military training, physical fitness training and intramural athletics. The program runs during the first two weeks of June each year. About 1,000 juniors are selected to attend the seminar each year from an applicant pool of approximately 6,000 students, according to the West Point admissions website. Students will stay in the college barracks for the oneweek program.
