COMMISSIONERS, STAFF. PUBLIC. I'M DAN HAYES, DIRECTOR OF THE SOMERSET COUNTY PARK COMMISSION.
AND THIS EVENING, I'D LIKE TO SPEAK ABOUT TWO PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE AND WE'RE HERE IN FRONT OF YOU TO FULFILL THE REQUIREMENTS OF PUBLIC HEARING AND TO PROVIDE YOU THE INFORMATION FOR THE PROJECTS. SO THE TWO PROJECTS TO BE REVIEWED ARE A SKILLMAN PARK IMPROVEMENT AND A GREEN KNOLL GOLF COURSE.
HYDRO RAKING FOR ONE OF THE PONDS THERE. FOR EACH OF THE PROJECTS, I'LL PRESENT THE SCOPE, THE PURPOSE, THE SCOPE, THE CONCEPT, PLANS A SUMMARY OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ANALYSIS AND COST ESTIMATES FOR EACH OF THE PROJECTS.
IF WE LOOK AT BOTH THE PROJECTS TOGETHER, THERE ARE AN ESTIMATED 3.498 $3.5 MILLION.
WE ARE SEEKING GRANTS FROM THE GREEN ACRES GRANT PROJECTS PROPOSAL PROGRAMS TOTALING ALMOST $1 MILLION, 961,000, OR 27% AND WE ARE THEN LOOKING AT A NET PROJECT COST OF THE PROGRAMS AT $2.5 $5 MILLION.
PARK DEVELOPMENT PORTION OF THEIR FUNDINGS AND GRANTS PROGRAMS. THE PURPOSE THE SOMERSET THE PURPOSE IS THE SUMMIT COUNTY OF SOMERSET IS SEEKING FUNDING THROUGH THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY.
BLAWENBURG ROAD, IN THE TOWNSHIP OF MONTGOMERY.
THE PROJECT SCOPE IS TO IMPROVE AND CREATE THE FOLLOWING NEW FACILITIES AT SKILLMAN PARK.
WE'RE GOING TO IMPROVE THE DOG PARK AREA, THE PENS, THE CONTAINMENT AREAS.
WE WANT TO CREATE A PUBLIC BATHROOM WHICH WILL BE LOCATED. I'LL SHOW YOU IN A MOMENT NEAR THAT AREA OF THE PARK, WHICH IS THE MOST USED AREA OF THE PARK. AND THEN WE ALSO WANT TO CREATE A NEW MAINTENANCE FACILITY ON THE PARK GROUNDS.
WE CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE ANY MAINTENANCE FACILITY AT THAT LOCATION.
A CONCEPT PLAN A FULL CONCEPT PLAN SHOWING THE PROPOSED CHANGES.
THAT WEBSITE ADDRESS IS THE PARK COMMISSION WEBSITE.
IT'S A LINK AND SHOWS YOU HOW TO GET THE DETAILS OF OUR PROPOSALS TONIGHT.
THANK YOU. NEXT SLIDE. THIS IS AN EYE CHART, BUT IT'S REALLY THE CONCEPT PLAN.
THANK YOU. THAT IS WHERE THE DOG PEN IS AND THERE IS A VERY SMALL YELLOW POINT.
THAT IS WHERE WE'RE PROPOSING THE BATHROOM RIGHT NEXT TO IT AND IF YOU LOOK WAY OVER TO THE RIGHT, YOU CAN SEE ANOTHER YELLOW BOX AND THAT IS WHERE WE'RE PROPOSING THE MAINTENANCE FACILITY, AND THERE IS PARKING AND THERE IS PARKING AREA AROUND BOTH OF THOSE, AND THERE'S CURRENTLY PARKING AT THE AREA BY THE DOG PARK.
THANK YOU. NEXT SLIDE. THIS IS A DETAILED CONCEPT OF THE MAINTENANCE BUILDING.
NEXT SLIDE. SO THE THIS IS A SUMMARY OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT.
THE PROJECT PROPOSED WILL NOT NEGATIVELY AFFECT ANY OF THE NEIGHBORING AREAS.
THE ALTERNATIVE SITES OR LEVELS OF DEVELOPMENT.
BECAUSE THE FOCUS OF THIS PROJECT IS STRICTLY FOCUSED ON SKILLMAN.
[00:15:02]
THE MAINTENANCE FACILITY WOULD BE NEEDED. A MITIGATION MEASURES REALLY, THIS PROJECT IS STRAIGHTFORWARD, BUT WE WILL BE PUTTING A BIORETENTION BASIN IN NEXT TO THE MAINTENANCE BUILDING.AND PLANTINGS WILL BE DONE TO SHIELD THE BUILDINGS AS APPROPRIATE.
THANK YOU. NEXT SLIDE. THIS IS AN OVERALL COST ESTIMATE FOR THIS PROJECT.
SO THE DOG PARK AND PUBLIC BATHROOM IS ROUGHLY $950,000.
THE MAINTENANCE BUILDING IS $2.2 MILLION. TOGETHER, THE PROJECT IS ROUGHLY 3.1.
THAT'S 100. IF WE CALL THAT 100% THE GRANT THAT WE'RE SEEKING.
THIS GRANT, THE MAXIMUM YOU CAN SEEK IS 25%. THAT'S $787,000.
THE NET PROJECT COST WOULD THEN BE 2. $2.4 MILLION.
YES. THAT'S CORRECT. THANK YOU. ME TOO.
YES, THAT IS CORRECT. OKAY. THANK YOU. NEXT SLIDE.
ALRIGHT. IF THAT'S OKAY WITH YOU. SO THIS PROJECT IS A GREEN ACRES GRANT UNDER THE PARKS STEWARDSHIP, GRANT SYSTEM FOR FROM GREEN ACRES. THIS IS GREEN WHERE THIS PROJECT IS THE GREEN KNOLL GOLF COURSE.
POND HYDRO RAKING. NOW THE PERP. SO, BEFORE I STATE THE PURPOSE, LET ME SHARE WITH THE SCOPE IS HYDRO RAKING? ESSENTIALLY, IT IS JUST WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE RAKING UNDER THE WATER IN A POND.
IT DOES A COUPLE OF THINGS. IT IS NOT DREDGING.
IT IS IDEA IS TO SIMPLY TAKE THE ORGANIC MATERIAL THAT HAS SETTLED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE POND AND REMOVE IT, AND IT WILL DO A COUPLE SEVERAL GOOD THINGS FOR THE POND LIFE.
SO IT DOES A BUNCH OF THINGS FOR US. ONE, IT REINVIGORATES AND REGENERATES THE POND.
WE USE THE PONDS ON OUR GOLF COURSES AS SOURCES OF WATER FOR IRRIGATION WHEN NEEDED.
AND SO THIS IS PART OF OUR MAINTENANCE PROGRAM THERE.
SO LET ME READ THE REGULAR PURPOSE. THE PURPOSE IS THE COUNTY OF SOMERSET IS SEEKING FUNDING THROUGH THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY GREEN ACRES PARK STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM FOR IMPROVEMENTS AT GREEN HILL GOLF COURSE, LOCATED AT 587 GARRETSON ROAD AND THE INTERSECTION OF GARRISON ROAD AND VOORHEES LANE IN THE TOWNSHIP OF BRIDGEWATER, NEW JERSEY. THE SCOPE. THE COUNTY OF SOMERSET PROPOSES IMPROVEMENTS AT THE GOLF GREEN KNOLL GOLF COURSE HYDRO RAKING POND LOCATED AT HOLE NUMBER SIX. A FULL CONCEPT PLAN IS AGAIN AVAILABLE AT OUR WEBSITE.
NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. THIS IS A GREEN KNOLL. THIS IS THE CONCEPT PLAN FOR GREEN KNOLL GOLF COURSE.
THE CIRCLED AREA SHOWS THE POND AT, WHICH IS NEAR HOLE NUMBER SIX.
THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL RESULT IN A VARIETY OF POSITIVE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS.
HYDRO RAKING WILL ELEVATE THE POND'S WATER FLOW AND OXYGEN LEVELS.
THE ACT OF HYDRO RAKING CAN CAUSE A MINOR SHORT TERM NEGATIVE IMPACT.
IN ADDITION TO THE TEMPORARY NOISE AND DISRUPTION OF THE EQUIPMENT, IT CAN CAUSE DISRUPTION TO SPECIES IF THEY ARE IN SENSITIVE BREEDING SEASON OR RESULT IN SEDIMENT RESUSPENSION. WE ARE UNAWARE OF ANY BREEDING SEASON THAT IS WHEN WE PLAN ON DOING THE PROJECT AND IF NOT DONE PROPERLY, IT CAN INTRODUCE INVASIVE SPECIES. IF THE EQUIPMENT ESSENTIALLY COMES FROM ONE POND TO ANOTHER WITHOUT CLEANING.
SHORT AND LONG TERM IMPACT. THE PROJECT'S POSITIVE IMPACTS ALIGN WITH THE LONG TERM IMPACT.
THE NEGATIVE IMPACTS ARE SHORT TERM IN NATURE.
EFFECT. THE EFFECT ON ADJACENT AREAS. THERE IS NO EFFECT ON ADJACENT AREAS.
ALTERNATIVE SITES OR METHODS. NO ALTERNATIVE SITE WAS CONSIDERED.
I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE WE ARE DOING HYDRO RAKING NOW.
[00:20:02]
IT IS A KNOWN TECHNOLOGY FOR US. WE JUST DID IT AT THE ECC PONDS.WE'RE CURRENTLY DOING IT AT WARREN BROOK. LET'S SEE WHAT ELSE.
LONG TERM MAINTENANCE. THE MATERIAL WILL BE DEWATERED AND UTILIZED ON SITE.
WE HAVE JUST THE WE'VE DEWATERED AND UTILIZED THAT MATERIAL THERE AT LORD STIRLING PARK.
THE PLAN IS TO COMPLETELY USE THE MATERIAL ON SITE AT GREENVILLE GOLF COURSE.
ALL RIGHT. NEXT. YES. ALL RIGHT. NEXT SLIDE PLEASE.
OH. SO, ACTUALLY, COMMISSIONER, IT'S WE DO WET RAKING.
SO WE JUST USE A LARGE CRANE RAKE WHILE THE POND STAYS THE SAME.
WE JUST GENTLY GO ACROSS THE BOTTOM, NOT DREDGING.
RIGHT. THAT'S DEWATERING. OKAY AND THEN WHEN IT'S DRY, WE'LL SPREAD IT AROUND THE FIELD.
[INAUDIBLE] . IS THAT. YES, I'VE PLAYED THAT COURSE. SOME OF MINE ARE THERE.
YEAH. YES, I'LL TAKE THAT AS A NOTE. YEP, I UNDERSTAND.
OKAY. ALL RIGHT. NEXT SLIDE. OH, YES. NEXT. THAT IS.
THANK YOU. HERE'S THE COST SLIDE FOR THIS PROJECT.
HYDRO RAKING POND. THE POND AT HOLE SIX IS $348,000.
THE GRANT AMOUNT THAT WE SEEK IS 50%. THIS GRANT IS 50% ELIGIBLE FOR STEWARDSHIP.
SO THAT'S 174,000, LEAVING US WITH A NET PROJECT COST OF 174,000.
I MEAN, DO OUR COST, DO OUR REVENUE EXCEED THE COST OF THE OVERALL OPERATIONS OF GOLF COURSE? I WOULD SAY YES, ALTHOUGH I DO NOT. I MEAN, THAT DOESN'T ALWAYS INCLUDE SOME OF THE BIGGER INVESTMENT PROJECTS DEPENDING ON WHAT'S GOING ON EVERY YEAR. BUT OVER TIME. YES. OKAY. ALL RIGHT.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS. SO I JUST WANT TO MENTION FOR YOU, FOR THE PUBLIC, ADDITIONAL COMMENTS FOR EITHER PROJECT CAN BE SENT TO GREEN ACRES PROJECT PROPOSALS AT THE PARK COMMISSION ADDRESS. THERE SUBMISSION FOR THE GRANT DEADLINE IS FEBRUARY 1ST AND AS I MENTIONED, IF ANYBODY WOULD LIKE, I JUST HAVE A TAKEAWAY SHEET WHICH HAS WHERE YOU CAN GET MORE INFORMATION IF ANYBODY WANTS THAT FOR THE PUBLIC.
WITH THAT, ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PROJECTS? MONTGOMERY PROJECT IS SORELY NEEDED THAT PARK REALLY NEEDS ALL OF THE THINGS THAT YOU'VE MENTIONED.
SO I'M VERY HOPEFUL THAT WE CAN MOVE FORWARD ON THAT.
AND I'M HOPEFUL WE ARE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS GRANT.
I AM TO THE SURVEY INFORMATION HAS BEEN VERY POSITIVE.
WHEN YOU'RE DOING PLANTINGS, NATIVE SPECIES WILL BE PLANTED, FLOOD RESILIENT SPECIES.
THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT WE CHOOSE. OKAY. BECAUSE I NOTICED THAT THERE IS A FLOOD ZONE IN THAT WHERE THINGS ARE GOING AND I WOULD IMAGINE THAT'S THE FIRST THING YOU CHECKED, IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WOULD BE SAFE FROM ANY FLOODING FOR.
THE BATHROOMS AND THE MAINTENANCE SHED. I DON'T THINK THEY'RE IN THE FLOOD ZONE.
PART OF THE PARK. NO, NO. IT'S CLOSE. YEAH, BUT PART OF THE PARK IS IN THE FLOOD ZONE.
THERE'S NO STRUCTURES THAT GO IN THE ACTUAL FLOOD ZONE.
[00:25:07]
WE WILL MAKE SURE THEY ARE. OKAY. IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT.SO I WILL MAKE SURE THAT WE MENTION THAT SPECIFICALLY IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT.
THERE ARE, YOU KNOW, QUESTIONS ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE.
I JUST CHOSE SINCE WE HAVE NO STATEMENT ABOUT THAT.
YEAH. OKAY AND WE ARE FOLLOWING THAT ON THIS PROJECT. CORRECT.
SO WE'RE CLEAR AT THIS STAGE. THEY'RE JUST ALL THAT'S REQUIRED IS CONCEPT PLANS.
RIGHT. THERE IS NO BUILDING DESIGN.
I AGREE WITH COMMISSIONER DRAKE NOTED ONE QUESTION.
ARE THERE ADDITIONAL GRANTS WE COULD APPLY FOR TO POTENTIALLY AID WITH SOME OF THE OTHER COSTS DOWN THE LINE IF THEY COME, COME ABOUT. CAN YOU COMBINE THEM? THE THEY JUST REQUIRE A 75% MATCH.
THEY DON'T LIMIT WHERE WE CAN MAKE THAT MATCH UP FRONT.
SO THEY'RE [INAUDIBLE] CORRECT. SO IF WE GOT THIS WE COULD STILL GO AND SEEK ENERGY EFFICIENCY GRANTS OR OTHER GREEN ACRE TYPE GRANTS THAT YOU COULD STACK TO MAKE UP OUR 75% [INAUDIBLE].
JUST GOING TO MAKE THAT RECOMMENDATION. PERFECT.
AGREED AND NOTED. NOTED AND AGREED. YOU JUST NEED TO OFFICIALLY OPEN A PUBLIC HEARING PORTION ON THIS. SO, SECOND, ALL IN FAVOR? OKAY, NOW THE MEETING IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. DO I HAVE ANY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WISHING TO SPEAK ON THIS PARTICULAR TOPIC IN THIS PROGRAM OR THIS APPLICATION. SORRY. SO WE DID RECEIVE TWO COMMENTS BY WAY OF OUR POSTING ON SOCIAL MEDIA.
1 OR 3 COMMENTS. ONE IS FROM ANDREW STILL WHO THOUGHT THE HEADGATES DAM REMOVAL WAS MORE IMPORTANT.
JORDAN HERNICK WANTED TO KNOW WHAT WE WERE IMPROVING ON THE GOLF COURSE.
COULD YOU ADD ANOTHER DRIVING RANGE? AND THEN ANTHONY PARISI, SENIOR, WITH REGARDS TO SKILLMAN.
IT IS NOT RELATED TO OUR PROJECT. IT'S JUST A GENERAL COMMENT THAT THROUGHOUT HISTORY VARIOUS COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD SINCE THE ROMAN EMPIRE HAVE HAD PUBLIC WATER FOUNTAINS WHERE THE PUBLIC CAN GO AND GET WATER.
AND INSTEAD, IN THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD, WE CHARGE PEOPLE FOR THEIR WATER.
THERE WERE NO OTHER EMAILS, PHONE CALLS OR OTHER CORRESPONDENCE RECEIVED.
PEOPLE CAN STILL COMMENT THROUGH THE INFORMATION THAT WAS PROVIDED BY MR. HAYES. AS PART OF IF ANY OF THEM NEED TO BE ADDRESSED, WE WILL HAVE TO ADDRESS THEM.
NONE OF THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED RELATE TO THE PROJECT, SO THEY REALLY DON'T.
THERE'S NOTHING TO ADDRESS. OKAY. CAN I GET SOMETHING TO.
[00:30:04]
