Common Sense For New Hampshire
Liberty Begins At Home

Will this project lower my taxes or raise my taxes? I care about ratables,if the units are expensive these will not be school children, they will be Summer homes,if units are cheap they will be young families with school children.
Not sure why they were talking about ratables when this project will probably have a PILOT.
That’s why I was confused they mentioned ratables and pilot.Pilot does nothing for our taxes,the way I understand it.
With a PILOT, no property tax is collected.
Usually when there is a presentation for development in the Seaport Redevelopment zone, it is made by the company that is planning the development. It seemed to be a huge conflict of interest for our borough administrator, Colleen Connelly, to make the presentation for them. The job of Belmar’s borough administrator is to negotiate the best deal possible for the Borough of Belmar and it’s taxpayers, not for the redeveloper. This could be the beginning of the end for the Belmar that we all know and love.
How about Belmar gets the public safety pavilion on 10th and Ocean operational and up to code before talking about more redevelopment. Unbelievable that they half ass one project then move onto a new one before the other is complete.
Please…. last person turn off the lights
And the mayor will be……Colleen Connolly of Avon……she calls the shots and tells everyone what to do and if you don’t fall in line you get fired just like all the lifeguards. Who gave her the power to do such? What is going on is such a travesty. When this is all said and done it won’t be hard to follow the money trail. I just hope these power hungry people leave soon. Our beautiful town is disappearing as we speak.
Belmar is screwed !!!!
Won’t some of these apartments have to be COAH? And then the school will be left with the burden of additional children without any additional tax revenue bc the property will be under the PILOT program just like what’s happening with the 10th ave building.
There is no doubt that a new borough hall is desireable and maybe this is the way to do it, but the number of residential units is WAY to high especially if the town/school is going to see $0 in tax revenue.
Didn’t they just tear down some of the projects in Asbury Park? We could have transported that gutted building over here. Great stories there.
Think Modular for any more government construction.
Five stories and 200+ units is way too much for that area. Are the units for sale? Rent? Reasonable? Are the small businesses on 7th going to get first crack at the new spaces? Why do we let these developers run the town? Does Colleen work for Brandywine now? I’m all for a new borough hall, but do we need all the other nonsense? I have so many questions!
And…just ban the bags and get on with it. Tired of hearing about the bags.
Hopefully, when the Mayor leaves on April 10th the townspeople can take back OUR town. Watching Colleen in this video makes me wonder what she gets out of all this? A new work environment and what else? Why is she so gung-ho on pushing the 5 story,206 unit apartment building on the residents of Belmar? Does she live in town? I can’t imagine she does and would want this type of overcrowding. Everything about this STINKS.
Move Borough Hall Employees, COMPUTERS, etc, to the soon to be opened 10th Avenue Safety Pavillion while the current Borough Hall is gutted and then build a Parking Garage with POLICE DEPARTMENT, COURT CHAMBER AND OFFICES. Simple. Use the newly acquired Church property for all other meetings. Gym at St Rose.
Don’t need a new borough hall. So what the current one is just average.
#10 is right on the mark. This is a bad deal for our school system and the town residents. COAH will most definitely have to be satisfied. More burden on the schools with zero taxes being paid. Bad bad deal not to mention taking town buildings to new heights. No longer will St. Rose spire be tallest structure in skyline.
Offices will be obsolete some day and hopefully we will need less office employees in the future. Waste of money, but hey, it’s not their money. Meanie lives in Avon, why would she care about Belmar taxes?
ADMIN or #6
Does the safety building on 10th avenue have a CO? OR is it just temporary?
And it totally seem like a conflict of interest that a BA would make the presentation for a private company.
wonder why Depeppe builders didn’t get it?
But it’s FREE!!!!
The Verizon boardwalk deal fell through, so maybe this can as well. And why is Colleen so interested? Yes, petition.
Brandywine: follow the urban renewal dots to the PROJECTS. Didn’t everyone move away from urban northern New Jersey?
Declare Marshall Law and have Belmar Borough Hall take over the Merrymaker’s catering hall.
Aileen, can you find a Belmar house Rental that can be configured as our new interim Borough Hall while the current one is reconstructed?
Borough’s Business Interruption insurance should cover the freight.
