PUBLIC HEARING ON COMCAST APPLICATION

James Mallon, Area Director of Government Affairs for Comcast was introduced and
gave a brief description of Comcast’s application for renewal.

Robert Warwick (280 Upland), Chairman of the Township’s Cable Television Advisory
Board (CTAB) then spoke, noting that the CTAB would like Comcast to have a
more broad based system to allow public contacts in the event of poor or inadequate
service, and that the company also improve access to world wide educational
opportunities for use in the schools. He noted that despite tremendous changes in
content and sourcing over the past 10 years, Comcast has not kept up to date
programming for schools in the Township.

Richard Hoyt (64 Wilburtha Rd), also a member of the Board, suggested that FIOS
customers be granted access to the public information channels that are now
supplied only on Comcast.

Gregory Sullivan, Township Attorney for CATV issues, noted that this is a starring
point for drafting an ordinance granting renewal.

COUNCIL REPORTS

Mr. Summiel reported that TACT had met recently and was developing a gang
awareness program for the college community. He also said that there would be a
college sponsored “Community Living Day” on November 3 for students living off
campus.

Mr. Steinmann reported that the County had introduced an ordinance lowering the
speed limit on a portion of Olden Avenue. He asked that a resolution be drafted for
the next meeting asking that the reduction be applied to the entire length of Olden,
from Parkway to Princeton Avenue.

STATEMENTS AND COMMENTS FROM MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC FOR

ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA

Charles Green (979 Bear Tavern Road) inquired about grant money for the
Municipal Alliance. Ralph Brandmierer, Chief of the West Trenton Fire Company,
reported on issues concerning weight limitations on bridges over the D & R canal in
his district. He also asked about the status of ordering the new rescue truck, adding
that there would be a significant price increase in January due to mandatory
emissions equipment. He added that the company was going to provide equipment
for the new truck from the current vehicle and no new equipment would be included
in the truck order. Mayor Ball responded that the bid would be let as soon as
possible.
Carolyn Short (30 Hillman), Kate Tuttle (8 Lock Ct), Mary Ann DeMoldo (11
Montague) and Todd Roundtree (110 Crescent) all commented on the condition of
the bridges and asked that the Township take whatever steps it could immediately.
