Tempers flare
over tickets, tows
after snowfall
By JOANNE DEGNAN
Editor
A group of residents, angry
their cars were ticketed and
towed during a recent snow-
storm, are arguing that a 2010 or-
dinance banning street parking
everywhere in Robbinsville when
roads are snow covered needs to
make an exception for Town Cen-
ter.
Police ticketed 32 cars in Town
Center the night of Feb. 8, and 10
of those were towed away so
snowplows could clear the streets.
When cars are parked on both
sides of the narrow streets in
Town Center snowplows cannot
get down the roads, township offi-
cials said.
The tickets carry a $50 fine and
anyone whose car was also towed
paid $100 to $200 or more to get
their car back, depending on how
long the towing company held the
vehicle in storage.
Park Street resident Anuj Bhat-
nagar, one of those ticketed, told
the mayor and Township Council
on Feb. 14 the law needs to be
changed because many Town
Center families with one-car
garages and multiple cars have
no place but public roads to park.
He also criticized township offi-
cials for a lack of communication
about the ordinance.
When theres a snowstorm we
get emails and notifications about
the garbage (collection) schedule
change, but when it hurts us in
the form of real money in park-
ing tickets and tow trucks theres
no communication from the
township, Bhatnagar said.
Mayor Dave Fried agreed, say-
ing, We clearly didnt communi-
cate the way I would have liked us
to.
Fried said hed work to change
the ordinance to allow parking on
only one side of the street in most
areas of Town Center when roads
are snow covered.
Once the new signs are in place
the policy will be clearly con-
veyed to residents via the town-
ships emailed Newsfeed service
and the Nixle emergency alert
system, he said.
I understand we have to pro-
vide some parkingwere going
to put new signs out so that peo-

Special to The Sun
Craig Hunter has entered most
meets this indoor track and field
season with his victory a fore-
gone conclusion.
At times, it took just one jump
for the Robbinsville High School
senior to wrap up a win in the
pole vault. Hunter finally was
pushed Feb. 16, and he responded
with his second straight indoor
group title, this one in his first
year in Group II.
Winning means a lot still, es-
pecially now, said Hunter, who
soared 15-feet-6, a half-foot better
than runner-up Jordan Pacheco
of Morris Hills. The competition
is unheard of. Its amazing how
much the field has changed.
Hunter cleared 16 feet for the
first time last month in this sea-
sons breakout meet at the Mercer
County Indoor Track and Field
Championships. He has wanted
to prove to himself and the state
he can reach that height again,
but first he had to worry about
the tough competition in Group
II.
Its the first time I had to
think about winning the meet,
he said.
Now, anxious to get back to 16
feet, Hunter hopes to do it at the
Meet of Champions, the states
top track and field event at the
John Bennett Indoor Sports Com-
plex in Toms River, which was set
to take place Feb. 23 after The
Robbinsville Sun went to press.
Hes got his eyes set on it,
said Robbinsville boys coach Jon
Hutchinson. I told him, itll
come again.
Hunter was favored to win be-
cause he has had the highest
clearance in the state this year,
and he has been more consistent
than anyone else in the state.
His best day was at the Jan. 27
county meet when he snapped the
meet record, and literally raised
the bar on his own expectations.
Coming into these block of
meets, 15 feet was my consistent
jump, Hunter said. Now 15-6 is
my consistent height. Ill get to a
height and then jump up. I know
Im fully capable of jumping 16
feet.
Hunter fine-tunes his tech-
nique with hours of studying
video and practicing.
Theres always room to im-
prove, Hunter said. I look at my
vault and theres so much I can
fix. Thats why Im happy
theres something I can fix. Now
more than previous times its a
minute difference. But once you
get to these heights, minute
things make all the difference.
RHS senior Noel Jancewicz
also qualified individually for the
Meet of Champions in two events.
At the NJSIAA Group II meet on
Feb. 16, Jancewicz won the 400
meters in a school-record 58.11
seconds, won the high jump when
she cleared 5-feet-4, and led off for
the second-place 4x400 relay of
Kelly Koss, Paris Hughes and
Kaitlyn Koss that ran a school-
record 4:05.55. She had qualified,
but did not compete, in the 55-
meter dash.
Its part of the plan of getting
her ready to peak this time for
groups, Meet of Champs and
Easterns, said Ravens girls
coach Mike Walker. Its good to
know it works when you plan it
out and actually put it into action
and it works.

Residents who sign up for free
cell phone text alerts from the po-
lice wont be left in the dark the
next time a storm knocks out
their landline phone service and
Internet.
The new Nixle communication
service launched Feb. 12 in Rob-
binsville allows the police and the
Township Office of Emergency
Management to communicate
with residents using the latest
cell phone and Web-based tech-
nologies. Residents can customize
their subscription settings to re-
ceive only the type of news they
want, such as emergency police
advisories, localized traffic up-
dates, and more.
Township Administrator Joy
Tozzi said the township signed up
for Nixle because of the feed-
back from residents after Hurri-
cane Sandy last October. Resi-
dents without working landline
phones or electrical power had no
way of receiving the email mes-
sages and reverse 911 phone calls
that the township broadcast with
storm-related information, in-
cluding the location of emer-
gency shelters and where to ob-
tain free bottled water and bags of
ice.
Its a free service actually and
it can do all our media outlets at
once, Facebook, Twitter and all of
that, Tozzi said at the Feb. 14
Township Council meeting.
Councilman Vince Calcagno
said signing up for the service is
simple and quick.
I think its going to be very
useful in getting out blasts to
smartphones, Calcagno said. I
have it on my phone and it takes
like two seconds to sign up for it.
Calcagno said that if sub-
scribers turn on the location
services feature, Nixle also will
send emergency alerts related to
wherever residents happen to be,
not just alerts related to Rob-
binsville.
You can set it up so that if fol-
lows you, Calcagno said. It
knows where you are if youre
in another town and there is some
kind of emergency that you need
to know about, it will send you an
alert.
The service is secure and reli-
able, township officials said. All
cell phone numbers are kept safe
in the Nixle server and the com-
pany says it will not sell, or other-
wise provide this information to
any third party.
Residents can immediately
begin receiving pertinent infor-
mation via text message, email,
and the web simply by texting
their ZIP code in the body of a
message to 888777. Residents can
also register online at
www.nixle.com.
Web links that include photos
and maps of an affected area also
can be provided for residents
using smartphones. Nixle mes-
sages are sent to residents regis-
tered within a quarter-mile ra-
dius, giving them the opportunity
to receive trustworthy informa-
tion relevant only to their neigh-
borhood. Subscribers can also
choose the way in which alerts
are received, whether it is by
email, text message, or via the In-
ternet.

Budget delivered
to council
By JOANNE DEGNAN
Editor
Mayor Dave Fried has deliv-
ered a $21.9 million budget pro-
posal to the Township Council
that would cut taxes an average
$76 in the short term, while also
paying down municipal debt
service to help keep taxes stable
in the long term.
Council President Ron Witt
called the mayors 2013 spending
proposal a great start and said
the council would review the
thick budget binders it was
given Feb. 14 in the weeks ahead.
I appreciate the fact that
were looking at a budget that
starts with a tax decrease, Witt
said.
Fried is proposing cutting the
municipal tax rate by 2 cents to
52.2 cents per $100 in assessed
valuation. For a home assessed
at the township average of
$381,000 that means a municipal
tax bill of $1,989 a year, a savings
of $76.
Municipal taxes comprise
about 20 percent of a homeown-
ers total property tax bill. Coun-
ty, school, library and open space
taxes account for the rest.
Fried said his budget also pro-
poses paying down the debt serv-
ice on the Kushner property, a 46-
acre tract near Route 33 that the
township purchased for $12 mil-
lion in 2007.
Instead of making the sched-
uled $309,000 debt payment on
the Kushner property, the mayor
is proposing making an $809,000
payment that he said would help
stabilize taxes in the long term.
The more we wean ourselves
off of debt the less interest well
be paying, which will allow us to
either provide further tax relief
or continue to maintain services
as services get more expensive,
he said.
The mayor said the tax cut
and debt service reduction has
been made possible by redevel-
opment projects, including the 1-
million-square-foot fulfillment
center that Amazon will open
next year off Old York Road.
The 20-year Payment in Lieu
of Taxes program that the town
signed to attract Amazon to Rob-
binsville will provide a total
$20.1 million in revenue for the
town, county and school district
over the next 20 years, beginning
in 2014.
In the meantime, the project
will provide $650,000 this year in
farmland rollback taxes, which
are separate from the PILOT rev-
enue, to reflect the change in the
intended use of the property.
State law requires developers to
pay farmland rollback taxes
whenever land assessed at a
much lower farmland rate
changes ownership and use.
We were able to win a very
big ratable which provides a sig-
nificant amount of revenue,
Fried said. The administration
showed a lot of restraint in not
spending the money and provid-
ing it for tax relief.

at Carnegie Hall and the National
Concert Hall in Dublin, Ireland.
Organizers are hoping his con-
cert in the 1,000-seat Robbinsville
High School Performing Arts
Center, an event that will be em-
ceed by New Jersey comedian Joe
Piscopo, will also be a sellout.
All proceeds from the concert,
which is sponsored by Roma
Bank, will go to defray Melissas
mounting out-of-pocket medical
expenses. Even though her family
has health insurance, the de-
ductibles and prescription co-
pays for the expensive chemother-
apy drugs over the past two years
are easily approaching $40,000,
her mother said.
I have a 50 percent prescrip-
tion co-pay and, just as an exam-
ple, five chemotherapy pills cost
$3,000, Ferrono said. Money is
not the issue because well do
whatever it takes, but the commu-
nitys support in all this, with all
these fundraisers, is very much
appreciated.
Melissa was first diagnosed
with cancer in July 2011 and
missed most of her senior year in
high school as she underwent sur-
gery, 14 rounds of chemotherapy
and 28 rounds of radiation, Fer-
rono said.
After the treatments ended in
April she was well enough to at-
tend her senior prom in May and
start her freshman year of col-
lege at St. Josephs University in
Philadelphia on a four-year schol-
arship.
However, in October, the tu-
mors returned and she needed to
withdraw from the university in
order to undergo more
chemotherapy. Ferrono said her
daughter is scheduled to have an-
other operation in early March to
remove lining from her chest
wall, lung and heart and then will
have photodynamic therapy
(PDT) treatments which uses
drugs activated by beams of light
to target and destroy cancer cells.
Melissa, who plans to return
some day to college and eventual-
ly earn a law degree, doesnt dwell
on her medical issues and doesnt
want people to feel sorry for her,
Ferrono said.
Shes brave, composed and
just handles everything as it
comes along and does what needs
to be done, Ferrono said. Shes
my hero.
Tickets for the benefit cost $25
(cash only) and can be purchased
any time during normal business
hours at Roma Banks Rob-
binsville headquarters at 2300
Route 33, or at Jims Bagel Loft at
34 Robbinsville-Allentown Road.
Tickets will also be available at
the high school on the night of
the concert. Doors open at 6:30
p.m. and the concert will start at
7:30 p.m. Organizers urge people
to buy their tickets in advance, if
possible, to avoid waiting in line
on the night of the concert.

Snow excuses
6 THE ROBBINSVILLE SUN FEBRUARY 27-MARCH 5, 2013
R
obbinsvilles award-winning
Town Center, acclaimed for its
small town charm, is appar-
ently not so charming during snow-
storms.
A relatively recent municipal ordi-
nance requires residents to remove
their cars from public streets when
roads are snow covered to facilitate
plowing. While the law applies to the
entire township, Town Centers nar-
rower roads, which are more difficult
to plow, became ground zero for police
enforcement of the no street-parking
rule when a snowstorm was forecast
for Feb. 8.
Residents were furious to see their
cars being ticketed and towed in the
middle of the night. Those who had
$100 in cash to pay the tow operators
were able to get their cars unchained
immediately, but those who didnt had
to pay the towing companies even
more money in storage fees when
they retrieved their cars.
Residents tempers ran high in the
aftermath. Five no-parking signs
along Malsbury Street were torn from
the ground and thrown into North
Park. (The culprit was not caught). At
the Township Council meeting six
days later, a woman whose car had
been ticketed accused township lead-
ers of corruption and greed, a com-
ment that drew a strong rebuke from
Council President Ron Witt.
Mayor Dave Fried readily admitted
that communication about the ordi-
nance and its enforcement had been
lacking and proposed a compromise
for Town Center where families say
they have nowhere to put multiple
cars except public streets. The mayor
says the 2010 ordinance should be
changed to allow parking on one side
only of designated Town Center
streets so plows can get through. He
also promised better communication
in the future and urged residents to
sign up for the new Nixle communica-
tion service, which will enable them to
receive emergency text messages on
their cell phones from the police de-
partment.
This may be too little too late for the
residents whose cars were ticketed
and towed, but its a fair compromise.
Until the ordinance is changed, how-
ever, all residents, no matter where
they live in the township, need to be on
notice. It is against the law to park on
any public street in Robbinsville when
the roads are snow covered. And, just
for the record, it is also against the law
to throw snow onto the streets when
shoveling sidewalks and driveways.

Finding Nemo at church
By DAN GRECO
If children are any part of your life,
odds are you have seen the movie Finding
Nemo. It is a colorful adventure of life
under the sea and a touching story. At
least, it was the first 25 times I watched it.
Now, I can recite most of it from memory.
Clownfish Nemo, and his father, Marlin,
are the main characters. Follow any class
trip through an aquarium and, inevitably,
when you get to the clownfish exhibit all
the children will excitedly yell, Theres
Nemo!
Clownfish and sea anemones have a mu-
tually beneficial relationship. The
anemone offers protection to the clown-
fish, and the fish keeps the anemone clean.
Lifetree Community Church has seven val-
ues that define us. One Id like to share
with you is exemplified by clownfish and
anemones: Were better together. There
are things you can do. Likewise, there are
things I can do. On our own, we can get by.
But we have limitations. Bigger fish are
out there. We get dirty. Life happens. And
sometimes we cant fix it.
Good News Alert: We are surrounded by
people who possess the skills and re-
sources to help. If I give what I have, and
you offer what you have, we have instantly
improved all our chances of success!
Were better together.
Lifetree makes this commitment to you:
Well give you what we have. Regardless
of whether you attend Lifetree, whats ours
is yours. We cant do everything. But we
are committed to doing what we can, be-
cause we are convinced that Robbinsville
is better together.
God set up a great system for putting
people together. Its called church! If you
do not currently have a church that you
regularly attend, we invite you to join us
Sunday mornings at 10 AM at the Sharon
School. For more information go online to
www.lifetreecc.com.
Dan Greco is lead pastor at Lifetree Communi-
ty Church in Robbinsville.
The Sun invites religious leaders of
churches, synagogues, mosques, temples and

ple can clearly understand which
side of the street there will not be
parking, and which side of the
street there will be, Fried said.
It will be impossible, however,
to allow parking on every street
in Town Center during snow-
storms because some roads, such
as McCabe Street, are still too
narrow for plows to maneuver on
even if parking is limited to one
side of the street, Fried said.
As for the parking tickets is-
sued during the Feb. 8 snow-
storm, the mayor said he was
working to see if he could get the
fines reduced.
I have talked to the chief of
police and we are working
through a process I dont want
to call it amnesty but essentially
we have to work through the pros-
ecutors office to try to have them
create an administrative fee to
process the tickets and hopefully
the judge will agree to waive the
rest of the ticket, Fried said.
Bhatnagar also complained
about the tow truck operators re-
fusal to accept credit cards. He
said he was only able to get his
car unchained from the tow truck
because he had $100 in cash, but
neighbors who did not had their
cars towed away and were hit
with more fees when they went to
the yard to retrieve their cars.
It is unfair for some residents
to have had to pay almost twice as
much to get their cars released
just because they didnt have $100
in cash in the middle of the night,
Bhatnagar said. He asked if resi-
dents would get the money they
spent on the towing fees refund-
ed.
Im working with the chief
now on the tows, Fried replied.
Thats a little bit more compli-
cated.
After the meeting Police Chief
Martin Masseroni said the town-
ship does not receive any of the
money the private towing compa-
nies collect.
Asked what prompted the Feb.
8 crackdown, Masseroni said po-
lice were called to Town Center
by someone worried the streets
wouldnt be properly plowed be-
cause neighbors had left their
cars parked in the streets despite
no-parking signs.
Some of those ticketed, howev-
er, claimed during the meeting
that they had never noticed no-
parking signs before.
The disputed signs are on
everyones radar now. Shortly
after the ticket blitz, five signs on
Malsbury Street were torn out of
the ground and dumped in near-
by North Park.
Township Administrator Joy
Tozzi said one was a no parking
when snow-covered sign and the
other four were regular no park-
ing signs that had been installed
close to intersections in order to
maintain a clear line of sight for
motorists, she said.
We dont know who did that,
Tozzi said Tuesday referring to
the vandalism. Someone later
put them back, but they are not
too steady so Public Works will
have to go out and do some re-
drilling.

Deciding about
technology
So, you know how technology
is taking over our universe?
Well, if you dont know you
need to stop texting and get out
more.
Anyway, a lot of people are say-
ing that technology is changing
our way of life and the way we
make decisions.
Now, I personally dont think
this is true. We can make our own
decisions and its not like technol-
ogy is causing us to make incor-
rect decisions (unless you believe
everything on the Internet).
Now, thats only my opinion,
but if you have anything you
want to say and want other people
to hear your opinion, send in an

FEBRUARY 27-MARCH 5, 2013 THE ROBBINSVILLE SUN 13
By JOANNE DEGNAN
Editor
Students at Robbinsville High
School joined more than a billion
Chinese people around the world
recently in celebrating the Chi-
nese New Year with martial arts
performances and a dazzling
dragon dance using authentic
Chinese costumes.
The 50-plus members of the
new RHS Chinese Club, under the
tutelage of teacher Sue Kana-
gawa, ushered in the Year of the
Snake in style Feb. 8, showing stu-
dents, teachers and administra-
tors their emerging Chinese-
speaking skills and knowledge of
Chinese culture.
The star of the show was a 75-
foot dragon, powered by students
running beneath the serpent that
they held aloft with poles, which
twisted and turned in a fast-paced
dance choreographed to the loud
drumbeat of music.
In Chinese culture, the dragon
signifies good luck and the loud
music that is part of the dance
drives away evil spirits.
RHS Chinese Club President
Rahul Jairam led the dragon pro-
cession holding a large globe on a
stick, signifying the pearl of wis-
dom that the dragon later chased
during the dance.
It is said that the dragon chas-
ing this pearl of wisdom repre-
sents the dragons way to pursue
insight and knowledge, Kana-
gawa explained.
During Chinese New Year,
sometimes it is a red or yellow
globe, which is supposed to be the
sun as the festival celebrates the
spring rains and the sun for a
good harvest.
Kanagawa said the bold red
and gold dragon and costumes
worn by the performers were pur-
chased with a grant from the non-
profit Robbinsville Education
Foundation, which raises money
to fund educational experiences
that are outside of the regular
school budget. Purchasing the
dragon, rather than renting it, is
less costly in the long run and en-
sures it is available to students in
future classes, she said.
Dorothy Collura, the mother of
RHS Principal Molly Avery, is a
tai chi instructor, who teaches
the martial arts form to the Chi-
nese Club students at their after-
school meetings.
After the dragon dance, Collu-
ras students demonstrated their
tai chi moves, sequences of slow
controlled callisthenic move-
ments.
The festivities also included a
demonstration by USA Wushu
Kung Fu National Champion An-
drey Tikhonov, who dazzled the
crowd with his acrobatic martial
arts performed with a sword.
Wushu is Chinas national sport.
Students, teachers and admin-
istrators were also treated to a
spirited ping-pong match be-
tween Schools Superintendent
Steve Mayer and table tennis in-
structor Mr. Ge, before enjoying
a Chinese take-out feast provided
by a local restaurant.

Widow of pedestrian killed
in hit-and-run
pleads for sidewalks
By JOANNE DEGNAN
Editor
The widow of the pedestrian
that was struck and killed by a
pickup truck as he walked along
the narrow shoulder of Rob-
binsville-Allentown Road made a
tearful plea to township officials
for sidewalks and better lighting
on that road.
Barbara Paskewicz and her
young son Jonathan, both choked
back tears at the Feb. 14 Town-
ship Council meeting as
Paskewicz implored township of-
ficials to work to improve safety
on the county road so that the
death of her husband, William,
will not have been in vain.
Were here to ask you what
could be done to have sidewalks
put in so that this doesnt happen
to anyone else, Paskewicz said.
Robbinsville Administrator
Joy Tozzi said the township re-
cently asked the county to review
the safety of that area of Rob-
binsville-Allentown Road (Route
526), which is a county road.
We have written a letter to ex-
press our concern as a township
on your behalf to see if they can
assist us, Ms. Tozzi.
It is narrow there; there isnt
much of a walkway and it does
lack a sidewalk. We do see the
concern and we continue to look
into that.
Mercer County spokesperson
Michael Boonin said Tuesday the
countys responsibility is only for
the road itself.
Sidewalks and lighting are is-
sues that the township would
have to address, Boonin said.
The shoulder at the place
where 40-year-old William
Paskewicz was killed is about a
foot wide. The posted speed limit
on Robbinsville-Allentown Road
is 45 mph.
Barbara Paskewicz, who noted
that Feb. 14 would have been her
15th wedding anniversary, said
she recently left flowers and
Valentines Day balloons at the
makeshift roadside memorial
where her husband died and
couldnt help noticing how unsafe
the area was for pedestrians.
I was out there last night and
it was very dark, Paskewicz said.
William Paskewicz, a longtime
Robbinsville resident before mov-
ing to Hamilton, was struck and
killed by a pickup truck at 5:44
p.m., Jan. 27 as he walked along
Robbinsville-Allentown Road, a
few blocks from the neighbor-
hood where his father lives.
Robert Cheney, 67, of Rob-
binsville, was charged two days
later with death by auto and leav-
ing the scene of a fatal motor ve-
hicle crash after police received a
tip about a damaged pickup truck
parked on a driveway less than a
mile from the accident scene, po-
lice said. The pickup truck had
damage consistent with the dam-
age sustained by the hit-and-run
vehicle, police said.
Mr. Cheney is free on $100,000
bail.
JOANNE DEGNAN/The Sun
