BOARD OF CHOSEN FREEHOLDERS – FEBRUARY 23, 2011

Freeholder Feyl stated: “I would like to introduce by title an

ordinance entitled, ‘BOND ORDINANCE OF THE COUNTY OF MORRIS, NEW JERSEY,

APPROPRIATING $3,000,000 AND AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF $2,855,000 BONDS OR

NOTES OF THE COUNTY FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE UTILITY RELOCATION AND SITE

DEMOLITION WORK ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE MORRIS COUNTY PUBLIC

SAFETY TRAINING ACADEMY EXPANSION INCLUDING ALL WORK AND MATERIALS NECESSARY

THEREFOR OR INCIDENTAL THERETO, BY AND FOR THE COUNTY OF MORRIS, NEWJERSEY.’”

Freeholder Nordstrom stated: “I second the motion.”

The Clerk called and recorded the following vote:

YES: Freeholders Cabana, Feyl, Murphy, Nordstrom and

Director Chegwidden (5)

NO: Freeholders Grossi and Mastrangelo (2)

Please note that prior to their vote, the following freeholders made

comments:

Freeholder Grossi stated she was uncomfortable in moving favorably at

this time because of the costs in these tough economic times.

--

Freeholder Mastrangelo made the following statement:

“Prior to casting my vote for this Ordinance, I must first mention that

I recognize the hard work of the outside professionals and the County of

Morris employees who have spent much time since 2007/2008 with regards the

expansion of the public safety building.

Since being sworn in several weeks ago on January 5 of this year, Ihave spent time gathering as much information as possible in order to allow

me to make a well informed decision on this project on behalf of Morris

County Taxpayers. This project seems to be one of the largest financial

undertakings in the history of Morris County.

Several weeks ago, we decided to move forward with obtaining real

estimates of this proposed project and are awaiting to receive other

operating costs associated with this proposed project. I understand this

information is forthcoming in the March to April time frame.

Prior to taking office, my understanding and to many I spoke to on the

campaign trail last year is that this project was based primarily on a shared

services foundation for centralized county wide dispatch. Let it be clear and

on this record that I am in support of shared services where it makes senseand countywide dispatch is a shared service concept I support. Centralization

versus distributed regionalization would have been something I would have

asked to have looked at if I was on this board earlier.

Upon arriving at the Freeholder Board I learned that the project

included expansion and relocation of other county functions to be placed in

the new hardened facility.

It is proposed in the project plans for the Division of Emergency

Management to expand to a new third floor at a build cost of approx $5.9

million. This floor for the most part will remain empty unless we are faced

with a disaster. It is further proposed to relocate Information Technology

to this building at a build out cost of $ 2.4 million. Approximately 75 % ofthe applications are Business Critical, the balance of the applications are

Mission Critical. I question why ITD needs to house Business Applications in

BOARD OF CHOSEN FREEHOLDERS – FEBRUARY 23, 2011

Please note, after walking through the County IT room I am in agreement

that it needs to be moved, but am not convinced at this time that it needs to

be a hardened facility.

I believe in delivering the county services, especially the shared

services this building will house, but to right size the building, relocate

some services to existing county locations in order to drive this capitalcost of this project down. The County Central dispatch requires approximately

10000 to 12000 square ft. The building expansion is 38000 sq ft with 16000 sq

ft of renovation of existing space. I believe this goes way beyond the scope

of what is required for the county wide communications center.

Without a review of alternatives which I suggest, obtaining real

estimates and the total estimated operating cost for this project, especially

during these economic times with county workforce reductions, I VOTE NO.”

--

Freeholder Cabana said the Board has not taken this project lightly,

and they have studied other locations but because this needs to be a hardened

facility, this was determined to be the best location.

--

Freeholder Feyl moved that the Clerk be authorized to publish the

Ordinance in summary form in the local newspaper together with the notice of

public hearing and consideration of final passage of this Ordinance which

will take place at the Freeholder meeting to be held in the Administration

and Records Building, Fifth Floor, Court Street, Morristown, New Jersey, on

March 9 at 7:30 p.m.

Freeholder Nordstrom stated: “I second the motion,” which passed with

five YES votes.
