But I'm4 saying is there an intimate -- is there gonna be -- it's5 gonna done this time it's gonna be that time or it'll be6 intimate every month, or every so many weeks, these7 reports will be available in planning so the residents8 can come in, people from the general public can come in9 and see what the status of the project is?10 CHAIRMAN BAGOFF: Good question. If there's11 a pre-blasting report -- I'm sorry. Mr. Klein.12 MR. KLEIN: Yeah. So would it be13 overburdensome to ask the applicant to put up some sort14 of website that gives some milestones of when they d15 certain things so that people can sign up for16 notifications, there's going to be blasting next week.17 Things like -- I don't know, I've never seen that18 before.19 CHAIRMAN BAGOFF: We'll ask the applicant is20 that a reasonable condition.21 MR. KLEIN: Right. Just to be able to keep22 the public informed.23 CHAIRMAN BAGOFF: It would also be supplied24 to the township but we'll ask the applicant to put up a25 46 website.1 MR. KLEIN: Oh okay. So if the applicants2 going to be providing it to the township then we just3 have to have the township some how --4 CHAIRMAN BAGOFF: As you said, it may be5 easier and more expeditious to have the applicant who6 has the document in hand as opposed to moving through7 the process of it getting, going to the Planning Board8 secretary, getting it read, posted. It'll go that9 process but it'll also be placed by the applicant online10 on a site that will be available to the public.11 Mayor McCartney.12 MAYOR McCARTNEY: So there have been other13 applications where we have, whether acquisitions where14 we have monthly reports generated and maybe not15 necessarily monthly, but quarterly to ask the applicant16 to do that quarterly.17 CHAIRMAN BAGOFF: That could be worked with18 the building department, because it'll be in their19 purview when they feel that reports are reasonably due.20 That the building department will work with the21 applicant to set up those times when reports will be due22 and posted.23 Mayor McCartney.24 MAYOR McCARTNEY: I'm going back to Mr.25 47 Kleinberg and I have a list of the things that, the 111 conditions that --2 CHAIRMAN
