Actually there will be a public hearing on all the changes to route 9 traffic flow in the summer, before the changes go into effect. The State will also want to see the  local elected officials on board with the proposed changes.....

It would definitely help turning from central onto 9 if there is no light from the other side but I cannot understand how they feel this will help overall.
Because it will eliminate the need for a turn signal & then a full green now Central will have a full green light right away so you won't need a green as long therby shortening the red for Route 9....

This is awesome!

No more shady business.

This part bothered me:

Quote
Prior to the opening of the March meeting, Board Chairman Abe Halberstam said, “Before we begin tonight’s meeting, I’d just like to warn my fellow board members that we’re being videotaped by a private citizen tonight, so be careful what you say and what you’re going to be saying on the record.”

Oh, and the fact that applicants are choosing to wait.  That's certainly indicative of something.

not necessarily, could just be the penchant for some people to deliberately misconstrue, edit and misrepresent facts and words to further their agenda.

Please. It's because they're doing things that would make the public furious. And they;re afraid that people will finally find out what goes on at these meetings.

Yes I know, anyone can go sit through many hours of meetings each month - but people don't have the time. Now with the videos available people have the ability to uncover the scams that these boards are facilitating...and they're petrified!!

Menashe - time to kick these people off the board!

What are you talking about??
The guy posts the full,unedited videos.

If anything, now nothing can be misconstrued, edited and misrepresented as it always has.

Not to mention the fact that the transcripts af these meetings are supposed to be available anyway. - conveniently the power brokers have total control over that process...  vdl.

The entire recording is available on youtube, nothing to be worried about.

I know that he appoints members. And now that the dirty laundry is being aired and it's blatantly obvious that they are doing shady things that they are afraid to do in the public eye - he needs to be pressured to take them off. Transparency...

There shouldn't be anything happening at any of these meetings that the public isn't allowed to hear.

The real issue is that WE keep building without adding sufficient infrastructure.(or coming up with such pathetic excuses that its a county/state road.=dont approve in the first place.)
also find it interesting that in a short time three new traffic lights went up on cedarbridge ave(that is a different issue on its own).is this the same "county roads"that it is so difficult to add a traffic light(as pine,prospect ect. are in desperate need of,not three or four way stop signs!=they keep saying its county road....hard to place traffic signal on county roads...)

That is probably why all of them went up at the same time.

I think the issue with that is that the township has no control over those roads or placing lights there at all, it's up to the county to do it. The county has been known in the past to place lights at intersections where there wasn't great need while ignoring other intersections desperate for a traffic light.

Like South Lake Dr and Hope? That is in desperate need of not having a light.

They tried a traffic light at pine and MLK, it just made more problems
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

I used to live on that corner, when there was a stop sign on MLK only. there were daily accidents. So depends on how you define problems

Was there anything better with a traffic light over the 3 way stop?
