    By KATIE MORGANThe Princeton Sun

    On Jan. 1, Princeton Townshipand Princeton Borough officiallymerged, becoming one consoli-dated municipality.

    Princeton Borough secededfrom the township in 1894 after adispute over school taxes. Consol-idation was approved by a land-slide vote of 3,542 to 604 in a his-toric referendum on Nov. 8, 2011.

    A Consolidation Commissionand Transition Task Force wereformed, and began working to-ward consolidation at the begin-ning of 2012. The Transition TaskForce consists of 12 members ap-pointed from the township and

    borough. Multiple subcommitteeswere formed to make recommen-dations on finances, communityaffairs, infrastructure and opera-tions, boards and commissions,and multiple other facets of themerge.

    Its a huge undertaking,Transition Task Force chairMark Freda said recently. Some

    Rebuilding the Jersey shoreLocal developer, building company Hillier Properties, LLC

    donates boulders to help protect coastlineBy KATIE MORGANThe Princeton Sun

    A local developer and buildingcompany is doing its part to re-store the Jersey shore in the wakeof Hurricane Sandy. Boulders do-nated by Hillier Properties, LLC,will be used to restore the coast-line, rebuild jetties and improveprotection for the beaches in theevent of future superstorms.

    Ground was broken on the Cop-perwood rental community, an ac-tive adult community for resi-dents aged 55 and over, in Novem-ber.

    Hillier Properties had previ-ously acquired the property,which consists of 20 acres onBunn Drive, from another devel-oper.

    Theres 20 beautifully woodedacres, said Bob Hillier, principaldeveloper and architect. Whenwe acquired it, it had recently

    been approved for basically 75percent of those acres to be dis-turbed. What that means is thetrees come down and theres con-struction on the whole area. Thedeveloper who got that approvalwalked away.

    Hillier adapted the plans forthe portion of land, designing acommunity that will encompassbetween three and four acres ofthe 20-acre site. Hillier said the

    rest of the property will be leftundisturbed.

    The other 17 acres were giv-ing off to conservation, he said.That really satisfied a lot of thetown officials involved with theapproval process.

    Hillier said the companylooked at other sites being devel-oped on Bunn Drive to determinewhether the ground was particu-larly rocky, and they did not see

    any evidence that they would ex-perience any issues or problemsupon breaking ground.

    However, once ground was bro-ken on the site and digging beganfor an underground parkinggarage, Hillier said they almostimmediately began uncoveringhuge boulders.

    When we looked at the otherbuildings being put up on BunnDrive, there were not a lot of boul-ders, he said. But our site was

    just strewn with them.

    Hillier said the boulders arethe result of glaciers that movedeast from Wisconsin and southfrom New Hampshire and meltedin the area.

    These glaciers melted anddropped boulders, he said. Itsactually fairly common in thisarea to see boulders as a result ofglacier melts.

    The Princeton Regional Plan-ning Board had concerns about

    the use of dynamite to remove theboulders, so Hillier was forced touse jackhammers to remove theboulders from the site.

    We had to use some of thebiggest jackhammers you haveever seen, he said.

    As the area of possible site dis-turbance was extremely limitedby the terms of the site plan ap-proval, Hillier was unable to storethe boulders on the site.

    This was 400 tons of boul-ders, he said. It was a pile amountain, really 30 feet highand it took up a space the size ofhalf a football field. We had prom-ised everyone we wouldnt dis-turb any more than the four or soacres that we were building on.We were very limited on wherewe could put them.

    Hillier reached out to landscap-ers, contractors, and roadbuilders, and was unable to findanyone who was interested in

    using the boulders.We were calling everyone,

    Hillier said. We had this hugemountain of boulders, and wewere about to spend a lot ofmoney to truck it out to rock min-ing companies.

    Hillier said he was surprisedwhen a contractor from the Jer-sey Shore, representing Lyons

    of the subcommittees are stillworking up to this very late date.There are so many details and somany things that need to beworked out.

    A new mayor and council wereelected in Nov. 2012 to lead themunicipality.

    Bernie Miller, former townshipcommitteeman and member of

    the new council, said consolida-tion is nearly complete.

    From a functioning municipalstandpoint, were 95 percentthere, he said. Were well onour way to feeling the benefits ofconsolidation.

    All departments in the town-ship and borough have been reor-ganized to work in tandem. Thetwo separate police departmentsbegan working together in earlyDecember.

    Weve been trying to imple-ment it gradually so all the quirks

    would be worked out, said PoliceCaptain Nick Sutter. Its like twofamilies coming together underone roof. There are things we dodifferently on a daily basis. Theways we conduct patrols and fillout paperwork are different. Wehave to standardize those things.

    The department has combinedoperational procedures, and isworking from the same buildingat 1 Valley Rd.

    The overall function is gettingdone very well now, Sutter said.As we go along, sometimes werefinding the way a township offi-cer documents something is bet-

    ter or maybe theres a third wayto do it.

    Sutter said the department isholding daily meetings with pa-trols and compiling suggestions

    and problems.As an administrative staff

    were addressing these thingsdaily, he said. Eventually wellget to all of them.

    Sutter said the consolidation ofthe two departments has alreadyincreased the efficiency of the of-ficers day-to-day responsibilities.

    I totally believe well be able tomore efficiently provide a betterservice to the public as a whole,Sutter said. Well have fully func-tional traffic and safe neighbor-hood units, and a bigger detectivedepartment. We didnt have themanpower for these services be-

    fore. Service will be drasticallyincreased.

    Sutter said the new consolidat-ed department will include spe-cialty units devoted to traffic, safe

    neighborhoods and communitypolicing.

    These units are responsiblefor identifying specialty needs inthe community, he said. They llhold meetings and conduct sur-veys. The public will be able tocall with problems that werenttraditionally police-related. Butwith all this additional manpow-er we can have an officer go andnot be tied to the radio. When offi-cers on the road arent answeringone call after another we can pro-vide much better service to ourcommunity.

    Residents in need of police as-

    sistance can still dial either theborough and township numbersat 609-921-2100 or 609-924-4141. All

    Trucking, came to the Copper-wood site and inquired about theboulders.

    One day this guy walks ontothe site and says, whatre yougoing to do with those boulders?Hillier said. He asked if wed beinterested in donating them to therebuilding effort down at the Jer-sey shore.

    The boulders were trucked

    from the Copperwood site to Jer-sey shore beaches. In addition todonating the boulders, HillierProperties agreed to contribute$25,000 toward the cost of truck-ing.

    We were going to have tospend a lot more than that to getrid of them, Hillier said. Andthis way its a win-win for every-one.

    Trucking the 400 tons of boul-

    ders off the site was an enormousundertaking that required 70truckloads over the course of aweek. Hillier said he was ulti-mately thrilled to be able to con-tribute to the rebuilding effort insuch an unconventional way.

    Sandy was a horrible experi-ence for a lot of people in NewJersey, including ourselves, hesaid. We had to stop construc-tion for a week after the storm.We couldnt get any trucks to thesite because all the trees weredown, and that was just up here.When you see the devastation at

    the Jersey shore you can appreci-ate how bad it really was there.We were really just pleased to beable to give something to them.

    There are all kinds of great rea-

    sons to replace the $1 bill with a

    $1 coin.

    For example, the government says it

    would save taxpayers billions of dol-

    lars over the next several decades. And

    who doesnt want to save billions of

    tax dollars?Vending companies, too, would like

    to see the switch. Anyone who has

    tried unsuccessfully to jam a dollar bill

    into a machine that is, well, less than

    perfect, understands the vending com-

    panies sentiments.

    The problem is that weve tried this

    before, and it didnt end well. Remem-

    ber, about a decade ago, the Sacagawea

    coin? Before that, the Susan B. Antho-

    ny? Before that? Well, there have been

    dollar coins in the United States pretty

    much since the Continental Congress

    met.

    Americans just dont seem to like

    the $1 coin. Some complain that they

    are too hard to distinguish from the

    quarter. Others note that its much eas-

    ier to cram 10 $1 bills into your wallet

    than it is to carry 10 $1 coins in yourpocket.

    Whatever the reason, Americans

    have rejected a move to the $1 coin. Re-

    peatedly and resoundly.

    So lets forget about this idea and

    focus on a few other monetary

    thoughts that make more sense.

    How about making $1 bills that last

    longer than five years? That reduces

    the need to pull old ones from circula-tion and replace them with new ones.

    And lets figure out a way to make

    producing a penny cost less than a

    penny, and make producing a nickel

    cost less than a dime. Switch metals, or

    just do away with them altogether. Es-

    pecially the pennies. Not much you can

    get for a penny these days.

    But keep the $1 bill. At least for now.

    At least until inflation puts it into the

    category of the penny: not really worth

    producing any longer.

    in our opinion

    The $1 coinHavent we tried this already? And failed?

    Dollar bill blues

    Yes, removing the $1 bill from circula-tion and replacing it with a $1 coinwould save tax dollars. Except, nobodyreally wants to use $1 coins. Weve triedto use them in the past, but society hasrejected them. So why bring up theidea again?

    calls to 911 will be transferred to communi-cations at the 1 Valley Rd. location. All mu-nicipal court matters will be handled thereas well. A new website for the consolidateddepartment is still in developmentalstages.

    What we really need is for the public toprovide us with feedback, Sutter said. Ina lot of ways its like were starting fromscratch. We definitely need to hear fromthe public.

    At a reorganization meeting Jan. 1, the

    new governing body planned to approveconsultants and appoint residents toboards. The council also planned to ap-point a new president, and draw lots to de-termine the length of their terms. Statestatute says terms shall be arranged, by

    lot if necessary, so that the terms of twocouncilmen shall expire at the end of eachyear.

    Mayor Liz Lempert said the new councilwill depend on resident feedback at the be-ginning of their term.

    One of the first things were going to dois have a goal-setting session, she said.Well probably take at least two meetingsto do that. The meetings will be open to thepublic, and well have portions wheremembers of the public can give us theirideas on what they think we need to be pri-oritizing.

    The first of those meetings will be heldJan. 3 at the old township building at 400Witherspoon St.

    Lempert said the new council wouldfocus on the financial aspects of consolida-tion.

    Well be looking at our budgets, andlooking at the savings of consolidation,she said. We want to make sure were tak-

    ing full advantage.Lempert said another major priority

    would be evaluating the towns emergency

    response capabilities.In light of hurricanes Sandy and Irene,we need to focus on making sure we havean excellent emergency response plan inplace, she said. Because were consoli-dated we can do an even better job of keep-ing the community safer.

    Lempert said the newly elected council,with former members of the BoroughCouncil and the Township Committee, wasa strong council whose members bringunique skills to the table.

    Everyone works really well together,said Miller. We expect to keep moving for-

    ward, implementing all recommendationsfrom the task force subcommittees.

    Consolidation of the borough and town-ship was largely proposed as a cost-saving

    measure.The most recent estimates

    place transition costs between$2,226,000 and $2,336,000 to beamortized over the next fiveyears. Including these costs, totalconsolidation savings are esti-mated close to $2.5 million.

    Scott Sillars, vice chair of theTransition Task Force and headof the Finance subcommittee,said much of the savings is a re-

    sult of changes in staffing.We dont need as large a work-force when we combine the twomunicipalities, Sillars said.Thats where were savingthe money. Its very straightfor-ward.

    Freda said the Transition TaskForce undertook the issue ofstaffing changes early in the con-solidation process.

    I think early on people didntappreciate how quickly decisionsrelated to personnel would need

    to be made, Sillars said. Theproblem was if we didnt makethose recommendations until Au-gust or September, people whosecareers were about to be impact-ed wouldnt know. We made that ahigh priority and acted on themquickly.

    Sillars said many staff mem-bers left their positions voluntari-ly.

    We tried to treat people withrespect and integrity and put to-

    gether modest severance pack-ages, he said. A lot of peoplefound other great opportunities,and it worked out really well forboth parties in the end.

    Freda said some details of con-solidation are still being workedout.

    One of the first decisions wemade was about trash collection,

    Freda said. Prior to consolida-tion, township residents used pri-vate contractors for trash collec-tion.

    We said early on wed havemunicipal trash collectionthroughout the consolidated mu-nicipality, Freda said. So a bidwas created to cover all the differ-ent options of trash collectionyou could have.

    When the bids came back inOctober, Freda said there was one

    apparent low bid, but one of thebidders contested the legality ofthe bid.

    It was about how the sectionof the bid concerning bulk pick-up was written, Freda said. Sowe had to rewrite it and put thebid back out. The bids just cameback last week, so we had to fig-ure out a temporary solution.

    Until municipal trash pickupbegins in the consolidated town,former township residents willcontinue with their private con-

    tractors. Under state law, they cancancel service with seven daysnotice. Freda said residents whocurrently use backdoor pickupservices may continue paying aprivate company for the service.

    Sillars said changes in statelaw that allow for two municipali-ties to consolidate without chang-ing all ordinances right awayeased the transition.

    Over the next five years wellreview all the ordinances, Lem-

    pert said. Some are different be-tween the township and borough.We can carry some over but ulti-mately well adopt ordinancesthat are standardized.

    Lempert attributed the successof consolidation to the staff in alldepartments that worked towardmerging in 2012.

    The staff has worked incredi-

    bly hard this past year, she said.A lot of departments have al-ready moved. A lot of administra-tive work has either been accom-plished or groundwork has beenlaid out to make the transition aseasy as possible.

    Freda said the Transition TaskForce and Consolidation Commis-sion would meet throughout Jan-uary with the governing body,and would continue to make rec-ommendations through June.

    Well look at things and say,heres whats working, and wellfind the things we didnt thinkof, Freda said. Well be surewere keeping the public in-formed.

    Freda said the publics com-ments throughout the transitionprocess were invaluable.

    This is the result of effortsfrom so many people, he said.The governing body, all our sub-committees, and especially themembers of the public who came

    to meetings to speak. We got sucha mix of viewpoints and perspec-tives on what residents felt need-ed to be addressed and how.

    Freda said the efforts of theTransition Task Force, the Con-solidation Commission, and thestaff of various departments re-sulted in a smooth transition onJan. 1.

    This was a lot of hard work bya lot of people and a lot of time,he said. As the details were

    worked out and things came to-gether it really reinforced thatwhen the people voted in favor ofthis they made the right deci-sion.
