For Montclair Councilman Cary Africk, his colleagues on the town council spent too much time last night on non-priority issues, namely the Rails-to-Trails resolution that would convert the nearly-abandoned Boonton Line rail tracks for recreational use. The item was initially scheduled for the end of the meeting, but was moved up to the top in order to accommodate out-of-town attendees who had come to discuss the Rails-to-Trails project. While an enthusiastic supporter of the idea, Africk expressed his wish to address more critical town issues, like the budget (or lack thereof), filling vacant positions (ie., municipal judge and prosecutor), and discussing town borrowing.
After 15 minutes of Rails-to-Trails discussion, Africk became frustrated, picked up the paper that held Montclair’s proposed budget information and asked Bloomfield’s Mayor Raymond McCarthy, “Do you have one of these? Well we don’t.” When Africk requested that further conversation about the recreational project be tabled until after the “more important issues” had been addressed, Mayor Fried decided to allow the present discussion to continue. In frustration, Africk left the room. “I let everyone know that I am all for the project, but that we need to get to work on more important things first,” Africk told Baristanet today. “I went outside to take a few deep breaths and rejoined the meeting when the subject moved on.”
“I’m trying to get the council to focus on getting the really critical work done,” he added. “It’s unacceptable to me that we might not have a budget until the end of September. The job of the council is to focus on finances and service.”
Once the financial and other priority issues have been successfully addressed, Africk says he’ll be happy to return to the Rails-to-Trails project. Until then, he urges the council to stick to the task at hand.
Fiddling while Rome burns.
Incompetent Mayor…………
Not much else to say. He will go down as one of the worst mayor’s in Montclair’s long history in NJ.
Hear hear Cary!
Why in hell is a rails-to-trails item even on the agenda?
“Hello, Town Council? Um, it’s us, the Montclair citizens. ‘Member us? Yeah, well, We’re calling about some items of importance we need to talk about. Oh, what are they? We were thinking about the budget and our taxes for starters. A site for recreational use? Uh yeah, I mean that would be nice, but we think that needs to wait until these larger issues are tackled first. Oh? You have trouble focusing on things that aren’t fun? Sigh. So…what WILL you be working on before the next election that might actually help us out here? You’re not sure? Please call us back when you have an update. Thanks.”
Africk did not even bother to respond to an email regarding the library budget cuts that I sent him a few months ago. The priority of the council might be the budget, but individual councilors should at least answer their constituents.
The headline on this one is, to say the least, very misleading. ‘Walking out” implies a genuine and complete departure from the premises, generally as an emotional reaction.
But that is totally belied by Cary Africk’s own description of the incident. Was this just a dip into sensationalism by the woman who seems Baristanet;s most frequent contribuor of late?
Yes, it seems that it was.
Probably had gas.
Kacf,
I answered a LOT of emails from people concerned about the library! Basically, the letters said how can you cut out the heart and soul of our town. I responded, usually, by asking the writers “what would you cut instead?” Usually I didn’t get a second email.
I have suggested that it might be a “good idea” to furlough the Bellevue Branch. Not sell it, but lease it out. Turn it into a money maker, instead of an expense. No one has taken me up on this suggestion and in last night’s budget discussion the biggest item was putting $250,000 BACK IN to the library. We will be able to do this because we have money from the sale of the Label Street property.
Cathar, I did have an emotional reaction. I felt we were beating this thing to death. Yes, I agreed rails to trails was a good idea. I was convinced. But we went on. And several people asked “Can we also build a light rail system?” and others asked if we can also get NJ Transit to give us some of their right away for trails.
Enough is enough. Fix the budget, fix the borrowing, fill the needed vacancies, focus on quality of life issues. I would LOVE to have a bike trail it would be great. Priorities, though.
Cary
snappy,
High blood pressure.
Cary,
that you wasted your time responding to snappy’s infantile post is rather remarkable.
NSC owns the land, they are not willing to sell!
END OF STORY……….
Cary, it is sad to see you so stressed over pathetic leadership of Mayor Fried and his lackeys Weller-Demming and Lewis.
Can wait for election season. My first sign is either going to be Nick Lewis promoting the MPA to be forgiven for its nearly 600K tab, or maybe a picture of Weller-Demming skateboarding in a skatepark built on top of a community center while she is picking residents pockets. Nope, I have decided to go with Mayor Fried on a bike riding through town handing out raises to everyone who will vote for him and raiding back pockets of residents. Public Service Union Employees waiting all begging standing by the newly installed Bike Lockers.
Can’t Wait!
Cary should not be cheered for walking out. He was totally disrespectful of the whole council, of the guests who were speaking, and of the citizens of Montclair. Regardless of where you stand on an issue, walking out sends a terrible message. There have been plenty of times that Cary, and everyone else on the council, rambled too long. Cary acted like a spoiled kid who didn’t get his way.
mmmsu, I was not at the Council meeting,
but
considering Cary’s unflagging dedication to this town, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt in this matter, since the value of his service to date far overshadows any alleged infraction due to a premature exit from a meeting reported by you or anyone else.
Cary,
Love ya but you should take a stand on other issues. This is one that Montclair doesn’t have to pay for and doesn’t even have to work on. The town council just needs to sign the interlocal agreement and nominate a person to represent Montclair on the steering committee.
No wonder people want to talk about this, it makes them feel good. The budget doesn’t. And NO I don’t think Bloomfield has a budget yet. Did you get an answer from McCarthy?
“NSC owns the land, they are not willing to sell!
END OF STORY”……….Kyle M
Sounds like you support NSC’ s rights here, Kyle, and let’s hear it for the rights of the property owners of America!
No doubt you endorse the Lower Manhattan Islamic Center for the same exact reason, as I do. We don’t need the government telling us what to do with our land!
Your right Spiro,
I do not care about any religion at all, in my opinion its all made up lies.
As for the Bike Trails, i stated months ago and you agreed that it would be like the High Line in NYC, but the fact is that NSC owns the property and pays “TAXES” on the land and has stated multiple times for the record the do not want to sell. The tracks are an investment for the future to them, its there prerogative to hold it for as long as they want.
I like this guy
Spiro,
Ever heard of Railbanking?
What is ‘railbanking’? ~ Railbanking (as defined by the National Trails System Act, 16 USC 1247(d)) is a voluntary agreement between a railroad company and a trail agency to use an out-of-service rail corridor as a trail until some railroad might need the corridor again for rail service. Because a railbanked corridor is not considered abandoned, it can be sold, leased or donated to a trail manager without reverting to adjacent landowners.
Cary, I got your back, for what it’s worth.
That’s the truth right there, Kyle.
They hold title, and that’s good enough for me.
Regarding your other opinion:
You might enjoy George Carlin’s “Religion is Bullsh*t”. It’s easy to find on YouTube.
GreenNJ,
The line is not abandoned or out-of-service. Stop Lying or trying to mislead people!
NSC runs a train at least once a week through this corridor. Facts are stubborn, huh.
Portions of the line are already abandoned. There are trees growing in between the tracks on the line in Belleville.
NS doesn’t have to sell the land. It can be used for light rail as well as for a trail.
Answering Mr. Africk’s question:
No, Bloomfield does not have one of these (a budget).
I believe we did, however, pay someone about $15K to “study” the trail.
That single train a week will cease when Hartz Mountain leaves Bloomfield. They’ve already put their building up for sale and have announced that they are going. Most of the line is unused already. You can tell because thee tracks have been removed.
Erica,
McCarthy was NOT in the audience. Please check your sources and retract yiur statement.
Bloomfield did not pay for a “study” they have used Open Space Trust Fund money to support the start of this initiative.The consultant that is working on the project has already gotten grants that far exceed Bloomfield’s contribution.
I was at the meeting, and I can tell you that Cary was right to walk out in order to calm down. Priorities are wackily skewed by this Council, and one wonders whether some members throw crazy ideas into a hat, toss it in the air, and pick a topic to discuss. The budget and township debt are first and foremost to us, and I’m stymied with the fluff added to the agenda without apparent rhyme or reason. At one point, I began to wonder whether I had a stroke, as I wasn’t sure whether they were speaking in English or gibberish. Double talk all over the place. When I questioned some budget items, I was lectured to as if I were an idiot child. If you don’t like what a councilor or member of the public is saying, you can’t just yell “Robert’s Rules of Order!” and change the subject. I’m still scratching my head after council went into closed Executive session, had us wait outside for around 30 minutes…let us back into Council Chambers–then announced “Motion to Adjourn,” and ran out of there like bats out of hell. Weren’t you discussing the appointment of Township Judge and Prosecutor? Cat got your tongue? BTW: Love you, Cary!
Cary, you’re one stand up dude. Inability to tackle tough issues or prioritize is a classic symptom of American politicians of all rank.
You should do yourself the favor of getting out of your delusional burg while you still can. Let the ADD-addled politicos who get distracted by every shiny new thing tax and spend each other into oblivion.
clotty, reducing Montclair to a “delusional burg” might ease whatever ails you, but doesn’t do much else.
Why don’t you instead share with us the sterling merits of the town you hark from and maybe we could learn a thing or two.
in last night’s budget discussion the biggest item was putting $250,000 BACK IN to the library. We will be able to do this because we have money from the sale of the Label Street property.
Oh, dear God, please send a thunderbolt into each council member’s brain, preferable hitting the part that is the seat of financial reasoning.
Honestly, Cary, I don’t know how you make it through any of these meetings. I would explode. Literally. Blood and flesh all over the walls.
What an unthoughtful blasphemous comment from such an inconsiderate prick.
Hey Concerned
What are you concerned with? Douchebaggin’?
Actually, Mr. Pelosi, my burg is far from perfect…however, we have voted down our pipe-dream school budget six years in a row and joined the lawsuit against the Soviet secretariat aka COAH early on. Our taxes are high (as are most Hunterdon Co. towns), but they pale in comparison to yours.
And, if our town council engaged in the meandering, pointless agenda yours seems hell-bent on pursuing, they’d be voted out after one term.
Kyle……There’s a jungle growing over those tracks in Belleville. Nothing is going down that line without a machete attached.
Thank you, Clot, for two ideas. I hope your town’s schoolkids do well even on a shoestring budget, and I hope as you do, that COAH vanishes (for my own reasons)
BTW fellow Baristareaders, I’m in clotty’s Hunterdon County every week on business and/or pleasure, and I must say, the people there are quite nice (they look right at you when they speak) and the landscape is glorious.
But Clot is rather a minority there, seemingly the only person I’ve met in that area who cannot compete a phrase without some kind of sophomoric namecalling.
Erika,
Have you bothered to check your facts as was suggested above. That was Bloomfield’s Mayor, Ray McCarthy. That was Bloomfield’s great 2nd ward Town Councilman Nick Joanow. Nick has been an environmentalist for a long time and is the town council liaison to both the Open Space Trust Fund Committee and the Recycling Committee.
If you don’t beleive me please check the photos here:

I’m an enthusiastic supporter of the Ice and Iron trail but Cary had every right to be frustrated since the discussion on the rails to trails project zoomed off to include NJTransit and a light rail connection between MSU and the town, none of which was germane to this project.
Bloomfield does not have an approved budget either. I’ve been to several town council meetings lately and there is no discussion just a vote, and NO is the word that’s heard most often.
OOPS- I should proofread more closely
That was NOT Bloomfield’s Mayor, Ray McCarthy.
clotty neglected to mention that, even though voting down the school budget, etc. etc., the fine voters of Clinton watched a brand-new, multi-million dollar middle school come into being, serving just 2 grades, in 2007. There are 4 schools in town, serving just 1800 kids for grades pre-K to 8 — the high schoolers head off to the regional.
I don’t know clotty. Perhaps you should concentrate your crusade against communism, socialism, and any other (and there are many!) -isms you don’t understand right there in your own little corner of Hee-Haw.
Africk and Christy perfect together!
Actually, cro, there are some “hee-haws” out in Hunterdon, but by in large, it’s a great looking part of NJ (lots of open space preserved) with residents posessing varying levels of income and education. Most are conservative or moderate, and some are liberal. Of course, now and then, some oddball makes the news.
The big local news over the last two years had to do with a family that gave it’s kids some unusual names (and I kid you not, see nj.com – Hunterdon page, for details:
Adolf Hitler Campbell, now 4, and siblings JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell, 3, and 2-year-old Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell.
“Heath and Deborah Campbell’s three small children were removed from their Hunterdon County home last year, not long after a supermarket refused to decorate a birthday for then-3-year-old Adolf Hitler Campbell. ” per AP .
Yes, I remember that story spiro. I remember discussing it with my nephews Pol Pot McIntyre and Josef Stalin Shea.
I’ve been out Clinton way and it is quite lovely. Such a shame that such a bucolic setting is wasted on an idiot like clotty.
Africk and Christy perfect together!
Hmmm, that’s not bad.
Maybe Fried sent Cary out for some Chinese food.
I applaud Cary to be able to display as much stamina as he had in the past years. In his shoes, I probably would have thrown the towel long ago and resigned.
Our council has about as much financial acumen as the kids on the corner who are selling lemonade and thinking that they actually make money.
Why the council is wasting time on a ‘yea’ topic like the train trail is only to be explained with denial and populism.
LOL cro.
Unfortunately, while your nephews’ names are imaginary, the Campbell’s kid’s names are real.
And, I agree, Clinton is quite nice, especially going over that old iron bridge and seeing the red mill and the stone mill, the river and the falls.
LOL Nellie!!
btw, doesn’t Clinton have a nice big bunch of ratables? i.e., train station? shopping malls? etc.? That’s one benefit that our town can’t even hope for.
I looked at Clinton’s website and it sure looks pretty. Problem is, you never know how people are in their heart of hearts, as we learned when we were house hunting 13 years ago. Some places we went were palpably uncomfortable for a mixed family. So while I may detest the shenanigans of some of our councillors, I still like my town, for a lot of reasons!
p.s. I can totally understand why Cary got annoyed. It’s one thing for the council to say, “ok we support the idea” and another one entirely to go on a frolicking detour about putting in a light rail. For pete’s sake! We can’t even pay our bills, and someone has the audacity to bring up a light rail??!! It’s no wonder our country’s finances are in such a state of disaster. Stop the bleeding!!
A light rail between MSU and downtown? Oy.
There’s already a train between MSU and downtown. Do the students use it? And if the answer is no (which I suspect is the case) why would light rail be different?
Play the race card. Brilliant.
We hardly have a shoestring budget, as every one that’s been voted down gets pretty much rammed through in its original form by the twp. council in the workout process (when everyone who voted stops paying attention). We broke the string this year when the whole shebang got sent to Schundler to work out. He did some pretty good cutting.
We are very similar to your town in that we now announce to the world that our compulsive overspending on mediocre schools is both “all for the kids” and a key underpinning of our vastly-inflated housing values. Fact of the matter is, virtually all our HS graduates leave NJ permanently, and the few who dare come back after college graduation cannot afford entry level housing.
Like a good many NJ schools, we have SprinTurf, a wireless cloud, peer counseling, all sorts of self-esteem boosters…and about 600 kids graduating every year who have 8th grade writing skills, can only take multiple choice tests and exhibit the critical thinking skills of apes.
Take a look at how many NJ kids seek higher education outside the state. Then, take a look at how many leave the state and never come back.
A lot of our other problems pale in light of this.
doltpoll, NJ kids have been leaving NJ for decades for college study. That is so in large part because NJ ranks 47th in college capacity, and 50th in per capita funding for higher ed.
And that was so long before Christie arrived on the scene to cut it further.
Frankly, if you have kids graduating every year with 8 grade writing skills, that’s OK. Because your school only goes up to 8th grade. If you’re suggesting that the high school kids only have that level of skill, prove it.
Like many gasbags, you are full of certainty and bereft of fact. You spout this nonsense as though it were the word of God when in fact, these are the sputterings of an angry, ignorant dope.
But in a nice way, of course.
Clot, I highly doubt Clinton is full of racists, but it is only about 1% black, per census, and that might not be the kind of place I’d look into if I were Kay (see above) especially based on her earlier experiences. Calling Kay’s post “the race card” is overkill.
Cro and Spiro, you two are quickly taking over Roo’s warm spot in my heart! :}
cromagnon, I’m the parent of a high schooler here. Good, not great student. Lots of friends who are considered great students. I’ve seen their writing. Not so hot.
Love it when fantasists like you dig into Christie for imposing even a scintilla of restraint to the never-ending burn of money we don’t really have. I guess you’re comfortable with saddling the next generation with your untenable debt. However, I’m not.
Inside or outside NJ, education is the last big bubble to burst. Leveraging up to get a degree- only to end up in your parents’ basement- is a losing play. Next big deflation will be in tuitions.
Spiro, what percentage of black people would we need here for Kay to be comfortable? At what level of black population could my town be considered safe from racism?
I love lefties who are racist and are just unable to keep it under wraps.
Clotpoll, your posts make you seem like you come from a strange version of Lake Woebegon — where all the women look like Sarah Palin, all the men look like Newt Gingrich, and all the children are below average. And you’re proud of it!
doltpoll, as I noted in my post the cutting in higher ed started before Christie. I also did not take a stand one way or the other, but noted the simple fact that it has been cut and that the state now ranks 50th in per capita.
I’m not surprised that your kid might have writing issues. I mean, the apple seldom falls far from the tree. It is a point of interest to me that you apparently feel that you are qualified to judge the quality of ANYONE’S writing.
Isn’t this the time when you tell me about food and tax riots? I’m waiting.
As to the percentage needed for Kay to feel comfortable, I can then assume that YOU would feel comfortable in East Orange or Irvington, where virtually everyone is a different race than you are?
Somehow, I doubt it. I love right wing dopes who are racist and pretend that everyone else is, too.
[Comment removed by the editors.]
I will be sure to forward your asinine comments to my neighbor, who works for The United States Secret Service.
You should expect a knock on the door quite soon.
I don’t care who started the cutting in higher ed in NJ. God bless whoever is doing it. State schools are a cesspool of patronage, unsustainable benefits and tenure for lunkheads. The whole comp/bennie structure for tenured profs is classic Ponzi.
Rutgers keeps jacking tuitions and is so jammed with kids and overcrowded/closed out classes, they can’t graduate in four years.
BTW, wrong on guessing I might have a problem with black folks. I don’t; I grew up on a farm down South & didn’t have a white friend until I was about 8. You wanna know who I’m bigoted against? Muslims.
So there.
Tell your pal to pack a lunch.
Everybody here’s OK with the highest-paid state employee in NJ being the head football coach at Rutgers?
Mmkay.
Oh he’ll pack, clotty.
But probably not a lunch.
How was it down on the farm, with no white friends? What a crock of shite.
I grew up in a back alley in Manila and learned to defend myself with martial arts and pimp hookers to American sailors.
Wait, that was Richard Gere in OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN.
Perhaps the funniest thing you’ve posted (and there have been SO many), is your assertion that you’re “serious” about the armed overthrow of the government, posted in public. In my copy of RIGHT WING ASSH*LE REVOLUTIONARY HANDBOOK, it suggest that one keep those sort of rantings on the QT.
You really are a dolt, aren’t you?
Right about now, in a barn in deepest Hunterdon county, several overalls-clad, shotgun-toting patriots are at their weekly Let’s Take The Country Back meeting. One has just received a call from one of their members who has cleverly infiltrated Baristaville and who regularly reads this blog. He has informed the membership of clotfool’s “violent overthrow” comments.
In unison, they rise and shout, “HE SAID WHAT…..?!).
To be continued…..
Cro and Spiro, you two are quickly taking over Roo’s warm spot in my heart! :}
Hey!
Sorry ‘roo. Women are fickle.
But we can still hang, right?
cromagnon, I’m the parent of a high schooler here. Good, not great student. Lots of friends who are considered great students. I’ve seen their writing. Not so hot.
First of all, what’s with cromagnon? That was my original nickname for cro, which I copyrighted, so please cease and desist.
Second, you can’t truly expect us to take seriously your judgment on this, clotpoll.
You did coin it first, ‘roo. I have to second that.
At the very least, you should be getting paid for clotmoron’s theft of the term. However, he’s probably cranking out his own money (among other things) out in the barn, so your royalty wouldn’t go far.
I’ve been reading up on the clotty family history. Thank God for the internet (and of course Albert G., as our friend whatsup would say).
Seems clotty’s grandfather was shot in World War Two. Not by the Germans or the Japanese, mind you. The Americans stood him up against the wall following his shouted cry of “The landings are really at Normandy, not Calais!” in the middle of a crowded Portsmouth pub on the night of 5 June 1944.
Fortunately, the old fool had already impregnated a lovely Southern lass, who gave birth on the family plantation (surrounded by darkies) to clotty’s “pa”. He led a rather uneventful life railing aginst the government and operating a still up in the woods, hoping against hope that a white person might someday move into the county. No such luck. Clotty was born on the 4th of July, and it seemed as though he was destined for a life of service to his country. But damn if clotty senior couldn’t keep that old trap shut. Family curse, I reckon. He happened to mention to some FBI fellers that he’d seen some headlights and heard some shots down in Neshoba county Mississippi. The Klan took over from there, and we can only imagine.
Young clotty has put his time in. He was at Ruby Ridge. Stopped by Waco. Hung with Tim McVeigh. Listens to Rush and has actually hired Mark Levin as his attorney.
But I can’t help but wonder if the family curse has struck again. The old ‘loose lips sink ships’ message just hasn’t gotten through.
You wanna know who I’m bigoted against? Muslims.
So there.

Yes ‘roo, y’all is the southern (Cork) expression. Corkmen are creeps, by the way.
Though I’d never say that to their faces, as they are very big, very athletic, and they love to fight.
Clotpoll grew up in southern Ireland, and didn’t have a white friend until he was 8!
Ax him (another southern expression) — he’ll tell you.
that IS in fact the case. and if you go by montclair heights or msu station around 4 or 5 when the classes are letting out there are a decent number of 20-somethings crowding the platforms. msu is a commuter college and it stands to reason that the students of commuter colleges take commuter trains
Excuse me!!

In other words, I had my ass handed to me in 1967 after mouthing off to some giant named, what else, “Paddy” in a Cork shebeen whose name, if it even had one, escapes me.
I deserved it. What I said about his county, his girlfriend, his masculinity, his clothes, his looks, and his dog — all of out of line, for sure.
Could have been my cousin!! And my other cousin had his back. Ah the romance of a bar brawl!! And even on this side of the sea the males carry on. I recall more than once, in my youth, making an ice bag for my brother.
What I said about his county, his girlfriend, his masculinity, his clothes, his looks, and his dog…
In the docudrama I’m writing about cro’s life, I have him speaking to Paddy thusly:
