February 9, 2008. Thursday's Harrison Council meeting demonstrated that despite efforts by Councilman Steve McCormick, his wife Councilwoman Maria McCormick and a handful of their supporters business as usual continues in Harrison. A News 12 Channel reporter and cameraman were surprised at how quick Harrison's Mayor and Council conduct the town's business. In a span of less than fifteen minutes, the Mayor and Council agreed to apply for loans on behalf of developers and ran through an agenda which included the honoring of three former or current Harrison residents who were designated Grand Marshall and Deputy Grand Marshals of the United Irish St. Patrick Day's parade. There was no explanation for the benefit of the public as to why the Town rather than the Developer was applying for loans. Mayor Raymond McDonough did not bother offering an explanation nor did any councilmember question why the town was incurring further debt on behalf of developers. Business as usual occurs behind closed doors. Council members either receive private briefings on agenda items or they simply follow Mayor McDonough's lead. For months, 4th Ward resident Joe Wood has been vocal at council meetings leading to some interesting exchanges especially with Mayor McDonough. At this week's meeting, Mayor McDonough couldn't adjourn the meeting fast enough.
February 25, 2008. The Appellate Decision is scheduled to release an opinion on the challenged filed by Steven Adler, Manny Amaral, and Anthony DeRose to the taking of their properties by eminent domain. If the questions being asked during Oral Argument of the cases a couple of weeks back are an indicator of where the three judge panel was headed, the Appellate Division is likely to overturn the decision of the lower court.
