There is a possibility that we (DFAC) will need to remove the 5 residential homes on the adjacent street(Broad st) and the city alley that separates the two streets. We will only need the address on Broad st (1152,1154,1156,1158,1160) if under ground parking is cost prohibitive.
I am sure that given the cost you will agree. The DFAC Building will revitalize an entire block of Downtown Freehold.

Brother James,
How wonderful that you want to improve the Jenkem Flats neighborhood! I am sure you are aware that Kotextra and Leroy are members of the "Jenkem Flats Chambur o' Commerse". It's through that organization's efforts that Park Street has those wonderful hanging flower baskets in summer and poinsettias in winter. You wouldn't even know they're silk, honestly! Have I said too much?
I should mention that Brother Nobar frequents Leroy's AND Woo Fat's, since there aren't many restaurants or laundromats in Jenkem Flats. For his sake, and to prevent strife between church brethren, maybe you can accommodate these long-standing and successful businesses on the Jenkem Flats side of the ground floor of your building! The hair salon, I think, only appeals to Professor Tyeisha X anyway; no major loss. I'm pretty sure Brother Nobar doesn't go there.
Brother Nobar and I did make it to Leroy's during my May visit. Best catfish in town, brother . . . give it a try! I imagine it'd make your employees mighty happy to have tasty treats right in the building. And more customers means they can pay more rent!
Bible boring? Nonsense!

You will have to take this up with Phebe, its her office. I am just letting the Mayor know how much land we will need. I am not sure that Phebe will want a cat chinese restaurant in the building. Brother you might want to reconsider catfish for lunch from now on.
Catfish do not have scales. See Lev. for approved foods.

Jesus says: Mark 7
18 And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;
19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?
Catfish cannot make a man unclean. Much like that BBQ pig you were eating on Burn a Koran Day, Brother.

Announcement to all Concerned:
This is to annouce that I have appointed a Committee to Advise on Condemation of Property for the Public Good (CACPPG).
This Committee will review the property dispute before us, gage the public good involved, review public opinion as expressed and provide me with all the information necessary to move ahead with a decision on this disputed property.
Five Pastors from Landover Baptist Church have agreed to serve on the CACPPG.

How much are CACPPG going to charge you to submit your side of the case?
It would not surprise me if CACPPG offer a huge discount on the costs of submission to Church members.
I don't think you will need to expend much on the preparation of your case either, just jot something down on the back of a napkin, I doubt your side will need to go into much detail.

Cat fish have no scales
Leviticus 11
9These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
10And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
11They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

Brother, did you not read my quote from Jesus in Mark 7?
If you wish to ignore Jesus' own words, Brother, then you may wish to pay attention to the verses immediately preceding those which you quoted: 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
Is that a beam in your eye, Brother? And a bit of pork rib meat in your teeth?

As such, I will put an offer on the table right now. I would be happy to give him $100.oo for his time and efforts. I believe I am being generous considering. Oh course I would be willing to pay him in singles, so that it at least gives the allusion of him having a large wad in his trousers.

Your insulting offer is humorous, even to a Jew.
I paid $2600 in delinquent property taxes in order to acquire title. The current appraisal, even in this economy, is $409,000. I am willing to sell at this price and not one cent less. A profit of of $406,400 is entirely reasonable.
No more levity, please.
Shalom.

Re: Business Application Update -

We have had a most surprising turn of events in this little Freehold dispute.
On the public referendum concerning the best use of the "Property at 1157 Park St.", the proposal by Mrs. Phebe Dewitt received 20 times more votes than that of the gentleman. While I do not want to influence the reccommendation by the Committee to Advise on Condemnation of Property for the Public Good (CACPPG), it appears the public has a quite dim view of the loan sharking proposal.
In any event, this is just part of the process that must take place before a final decision is made. The CACPPG is charged with considering public opinion along with other the relevant variables outlined previously. They will then forward their decision to me and I will consider it and make my own independent decision.
Thank you all for your patience in this matter.

Mayor Hold, you may wish to get a current appraisal on the property. While it is legal for you to condemn property for private development (as established by Kelo v. New London), you do still have to pay fair market value to the current owner.

Re: Business Application Update -

I do tend to agree with Rev. Rodimer on this as I certainly would not take some joo's word, that a property (allegedly - has anyone SEEN the title deed?) he paid $2600. for, now in this economy would be worth upward of 400K.
I MAY be Born Again , but I can assure all of you, especially that Mr Goldstern, that I was not born yesterday!
On a nicer note Mayor, I do appreciate that it appears that the masses have spoken but I also realize you must take all factors into account.
Now, not that I want to sway you in any way, but DFAC are willing to donate $3000,000. toward refurbishment of the Jenkins Flats area as a whole. In addition, we are also willing to upgrade the trailer park facilities (showers, wc's, laundry facilities and BBQ- cook out areas, recreational hall and prayer closets.. etc) as a gift to the residents...
It is the least we can do to HELP out fellow Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
YIC,
Mrs Phebe Dewitt.

Sister P.I was wondering if you were planning an organized area of improvement for the trailer park? If so, shouldn't this area be dedicated and named for an outstanding citizen who devotes himself to the area?For me, My issue is 2 names come immediately to mind. Firstly there is our Mayor JJ Hold and then there is Brother HTannor. Both worthy men, both pillars of that community, both acceptable if not stellar citizens.
1 Chronicles 16:15
Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations ... an everlasting covenant.
Proverbs 30:5,6: Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

Thank you, Sister Phebe for the generous offer to donate such a considerable sum. It will not, as you say, be a consideration in the decision, but will be forwarded to the Committee to be filed with the records of this event.

On a side note Mayor, did you call a cab last night? You left your keys to your new Mercedes Benz on the dinning room table, you should stop by and pick up your car after church today. Might I add you have nice taste.

Mr. Dewitt--Gosh, I don't know what to say. I did not take the car because I thought you were joking. That's very kind of you.
Unfortuanately, I cannot accept the car. I am, of course, a public servant it is not possible to accept such a gift.
Thinking a little more about, however, perhaps I might borrow it for a couple of days. My car is in the shop getting some new tires and front end work. If one of your people could bring it by I'd be most greatful.
