Motion for Variance DENIED! That was the verdict of the Coolbaugh Township Zoning Board. They said SLCA did not make their case for needing a variance and said the request was denied "due to testimony." So 3 residents made a difference in disputing what Jim Ott, Ron Kluge and Brian Courtright said, much of what could be perceived as B.S. or straight out lies.
For example:
1. President Lou Killian stated at the meeting on the 21st there would be no gates,
(Either Lou is being kept in the dark...or he's crossed over to the "Dark Side".) yet Jim Ott on the 25th said several times that they needed more parking spots for visitors and contractors to check in. Why would anyone check in unless they need to go through gates?
2. Ron Kluge stated, erroneously, both on the 21st and 25th that the board can do whatever they want and they are the final decider. This is dead wrong and residents should be upset that this is his attitude. That is just rude, arrogant, and a total violation of a director’s fiduciary duty.
(...Not to mention being wayyyyy past the boarder of being a "Psychopath")3. Ron Kluge stated that the board voted on moving the guardhouse at a meeting but refused to give the date of the meeting.
(You would think that he would have least "made up" a date for the fictitious meeting as he's done in the past) The board is not allowed to vote in executive session or during workshops,
(Not according to Norman Bates) so it’s interesting how they voted on something yet no one is aware of such a vote taking place. Could it be like the meeting that Matt Ducey lied about to open up an illegal account with Tom Wilkins???
(...and today's Sesame Street is brought to you by the word "Cellmates")4. Brain Courtright said he remembered gates being in SLCA.
(Actually they're called "Chain link fence"; and those were brought down just recently) This was disputed by a resident who has lived in the community for over 40 years. The question is, did he deliberately lie or just imagine gates that never existed?
5. Jim Ott said the guardhouse was not visible to people.
(Well...neither is the guard) Zoning board officials asked if there were signs. Jim Ott tried to make the case that people don’t read signs. It sounded like he was making the case that residents were too stupid to read the signs, so they had to move the guardshack in the middle of the parking lot so we could guess why there was a gazebo in the middle of the parking lot and somehow determine that it was the security shack.
(It would only be a matter of time before Mr. Bates would've converted it into a toll booth)6. Jim Ott also made the case that security cannot see out of the current guardhouse.
(That's actually because No one can see during REM sleep) The case was made that maybe they should remove the paint on the one window and open the closed curtains on the other. Much easier that tearing down one structure and erecting another.
(You kidding?...paint removal would've cost the community at least $50,000.00 if you leave that to Ron)7. Jim Ott also said the new structure would be closer to utilities.
(Yeah...the guard would then be able to pee in the middle of the road) So there’s electric and internet in the middle of the parking lot but not at the current location, where there is electricity and wifi access?
(Yeah...all this access is actually under the speed hump)8. Ron Kluge said SLCA was now able to move the guardshack because they are in good financial shape. Is this part of the “free money” Lou Killian said paid to pave the roads for the first time in 5 years?
(Lou Killian?
I thought it was the puppet master-Norman Bates that wrote that in the newsletter.)9. Jim Ott submitted plans that did not require a variance but showed up with plans that did. Again, lying? Sneaky? Deliberately deceptive?
(More like just plain old deliberate.)So Ron Kluge, Jim Ott and Brian Courtright are either delusional or outright liars. You decide.
(Ok then; How about just "Delusional Liars?) Either way you should have grave concerns over who is doing what with your money.
