Attorney:
Ordinance
wont affect
project plans
By JULIE STIPE
The Princeton Sun
According to Princeton
Borough Attorney Henry
Chou, the ordinance intro-
duced by borough council
members on April 10 creating
a right of way on the munici-
pal map would not affect
Princeton Universitys plan to
build its Arts and Transit
Neighborhood.
As part of the project, the
university plans to move the
Princeton Dinky station fur-
ther from Nassau Street and
integrate the old train station
into the arts and transit devel-
opment as a restaurant.
Some councilmembers
hoped the ordinance, which
would establish a right of way
for the Dinky tracks on uni-
versity property, would enable
the borough to keep the train
tracks and station in their cur-
rent location.
At a borough meeting on
May 1, however, Chou told
councilmembers that since
the university has already
filed its site plan application
for the arts and transit proj-
ect, any changes to that zone
on the municipal map would
apply only to future projects.
This is due to a new state law
called the time of applica-
tion law, Chou said, which
prevents ordinances from af-
fecting projects whose applica-
tions have already been filed.
The ordinance would not

Ajanta Shah, founder of st-
Art, said the idea behind the
organization came from her
sister, who wanted to buy a
piece of original artwork, but
wasnt sure how to go about
doing it. So she went to Shah
for advice.
Shah is well qualified to give
advice on art, having majored
in art history in college, and
having received a masters de-
gree from Columbia in South
Asian studies with a concen-
tration in art history. Shes
also worked at Saffronart and
the Guggenheim museums be-
fore ending up at as a teacher
at the John Witherspoon Mid-
dle School in Princeton.
Shah loves her job as a
teacher, but said she missed
having art in her life.
Obviously, I love art, Shah
said. I felt like something was
missing.
Although not an artist her-
self, Shah said she loves both
education and art and likes the
idea of being a bridge between
the artist and the art enthusi-
ast.
When Shah realized how
many people are daunted by
the art world, she saw the per-
fect way to become that bridge.

Eighteen baby chickens recent-
ly arrived at Princeton Montes-
sori School to much excitement.
The students will learn about the
life cycle of chickens as they see
these babies grow into adults, lay
eggs and hatch more babies.
One of the school's families do-
nated the 18 chickens and provid-
ed the incubators in which they
were kept for the first few weeks.
Several families helped to build
and paint the fenced chicken coop
where they are now housed. Chil-
dren from infants through middle
school will variously observe
their activities, gather their eggs,
sell some eggs and use other eggs
for classroom cooking and baking
projects.
Students will learn how to
care for the chickens as they ma-
ture, and will see first-hand
where some of their food comes
from, said Marsha Stencel, head
of school. There will be plenty of
hands-on opportunities for stu-
dents of all ages to integrate the
chickens into their life science,
art, math, cooking, and writing
studies.
The chicken breeds at the
school include Araucana, which
lay blue or green eggs; Buff Orp-
ingtons, Speckled Sussex and
Barred Rocks, which all lay
brown eggs; and a Cuckoo Maran,
which lays a dark chocolate-col-
ored egg.
SummerQuest students will be
responsible for locking the chick-
ens in their coop at the end of the
long summer days, and will also
be responsible for ensuring the
chickens food and water supplies
are kept constant.
The Ladies Auxiliary of the
Princeton First Aid and Rescue
Squad will sponsor a spring flea

In other news:
Princeton Borough council
members introduced a resolution
to amend the 2012 municipal
budget at the May 1 meeting.
The changes to the budget will
not affect the tax rate as original-
ly proposed in the introduced
budget; the rate will remain the
same as last year.
The amendments include a
number of reductions on the ex-
pense side of the budget, includ-
ing reduced expenditures for the
board of health, recreation, the
senior resource center and the
department of human services.
The amendments also includ-
ed increases of about $54,000 in
sewer costs and $45,000 in Prince-
ton Public Library maintenance
costs. The increase in sewer costs
is to due changes in the way
Stony Brook Regional Sewerage
Authority computes the bill for
sewerage, said Councilman
Roger Martindell.
The expenditure increase for
the library, Martindell said, is due
in part to library employees park-
ing in downtown garages, instead
of at the Merwick Care Center fa-
cility.
The facility, located on Route
206, was purchased by Princeton
University when it was vacated
by Princeton Healthcare System.
The university plans to build
graduate student housing at the
site, and in anticipation of the fa-
cility being demolished, library
employees were asked to stop
parking at the site, said Assistant
Borough Administrator Sandra
Webb.
The borough has since been
absorbing the cost of having li-
brary employees park downtown.
The change in costs for the li-
brary is also due to a request by
the library for an increase in
funds over last years budget. The
net of the amendments, Webb
said, is that the budget will in-
crease $50,000. The borough is off-
setting the increase, Webb said,
by bringing in additional rev-
enue from delinquent taxes at a
collection rate consistent to that
observed in previous years.
No more of the budgets sur-
plus money will be used in the
budget than usual, Webb said.
The most important fact to
note about the budget, Martindell
said, is that, for the fourth year in
a row, the boroughs budget will
have not have a tax increase
I think the administration
should be congratulated, Mar-
tindell said.
The amended budget was to be
adopted at the next borough
meeting on Tuesday, May 8.

in our opinion
D
o you have an extra $1,300 that
you dont need and wouldnt
mind giving to the govern-
ment? Didnt think so.
But, if you live in New Brunswick,
your household is on the hook for
$1,330.68 when it comes to covering ac-
cumulated sick and vacation time for
public workers, according to the gover-
nors office.
Statewide, the governor estimates
that accumulated sick and vacation
time totals more than $825 million on
municipalities books.
Seems excessive. Or, rather, just
plain wrong.
As one of the exercise gurus from
the 80s or 90s said: Stop the insanity.
The Star-Ledger last week had a
great report on how a number of polit-
ical figures stand to cash out hand-
somely when they retire. It also points
out that, while some reform was
passed in 2010 capping new employees
payouts, theres still a lot of political
wrangling going on. The newspaper
reported that the Democrats want to
allow public workers to keep only the
time theyve accumulated, while Gov.
Christie wants to force employees to
use banked time when taking days in
the future, thereby reducing the num-
ber of payable days upon retirement.
For those of us in the private sector,
chances are the decision already has
been made: Were not banking any-
thing. Were lucky to have a job. Were
fighting rising health-care premiums
and the like, while probably not get-
ting much of a raise if any raise at
all.
So, the whole concept of banked
sick pay is foreign to us. Politicians
should take note.
It seems the governor and the De-
mocrats both recognize the larger
problem here, and, in fact, have
worked to address it moving forward
with new employees.
Lets hope that they can reach an
agreement on the details. Taxpayers
are footing some mighty big bills
now and will be in the future.
Sick means sick
Sick days are for when you are sick, not for when you retire
Sick day reform
The governor and Democrats already
have reached an agreement on bene-
fits for new employees. Now they
should be able to work out the details
on the big bills for which taxpayers
are still on the hook.
The concept of buying a piece of origi-
nal art can be intimidating, she said.
Many people, Shah said, have no idea
how to go about buying art, or are put off
by the prices and exclusivity of the art
world.
I said, Let me try doing an online art
gallery, Shah said.
Shah also knew she wanted to put a spin
on the idea of an online art gallery, and her
desire to connect people with local artists
and with local community groups led her
to the idea of donating a portion of the
profits from the sale of the art to a non-
profit group.
It just clicked all of a sudden, Shah
said.
Each season, Shah decided, the gallery
would have a group show based on a
theme, and part of the proceeds from the
sale of any art during that season would go
toward a specific non-profit. The organiza-
tions first group show will take place in
September, and will feature artists David
McCauley, Kasey Tararuj, Anthony New-
ton and Jonathan Glass.
Each of these artists creates art despite
a disability, and part of the proceeds from
the sale of their work will go to the Rise Up
Gallery, a gallery in the works for artists
with disabilities, specifically those who
struggle with paralysis.
The organization will also feature the
works of various local solo artists through-
out the year, and sale of their work will
help support whatever non-profit st-ART is
working with that season.
The first solo artist is Marquis Johnson,
who, like Shah, also teaches at John With-
erspoon Middle School.
Johnson fell in love with art as a kid, he
said, watching his brother and uncle draw
and paint.
I was fascinated by the characters they
created and the paintings they came up
with, Johnson said.
He began to experiment with art, and
was influenced by comic books, graffiti
and cartoons.
As a fine-art major at Mercer County
Community College, Johnson said, he dis-
covered artists such as Jean-Michel
Basquiat, Keith Haring, Roy Lichtenstein
and others.
I love the way (Andy) Warhol uses
color, Johnson said.
After attending Mercer college, Johnson
went on to Parsons, The New School for
Design, to study fashion and fine arts, and
finally ended up at John Witherspoon Mid-
dle School in the autistic program.
One day, he and Ajanta were talking,
Johnson said, when the conversation
turned to art and they discovered their
mutual interest.
The rest is history, Johnson said.
Johnson liked the way st-ART was creat-
ed with the goal of supporting both artists
and charities, and was eager to get in-
volved.
Johnsons art is mostly abstract, and
uses color exuberantly.
I feel color is so important as an artist,
he said.
As well as paintings, Johnson also cre-
ates screenprinted and painted T-shirts,
which he sells on his website, www.bailart-
projekt.com.
The fact that Johnson is a local artist is
in keeping with Shahs vision for the or-
ganization, which is to connect art enthusi-
asts to artists who live in their region.
As Johnson noted, a big difficulty for
artists is getting their artwork to the pub-
lic and gaining exposure as an artist. The
group gives artists this chance while also
supporting a good cause.

Princeton Pro Musica will con-
clude Frances Fowler Slades
final season as artistic director
with a performance of Bachs
Mass in B minor, in Richardson
Auditorium on the Princeton Uni-
versity campus on Sunday, May
20, at 3 p.m.
Slade founded the organization
in 1979 to perform major choral
works with orchestra. She says,
Bach wrote the B minor as a
summing up of his career. I dont
pretend to approach Bachs ge-
nius, but I am conducting it in the
same spirit.
Slade has earned a reputation
for achieving high musical stan-
dards and presenting adventure-
some programming. Through an-
nual re-auditions, inclusion of a
professional core, outstanding or-
chestras, and wonderful soloists,
Slade endeavored to elevate PPM
beyond the typical community
chorus. She specialized in the
great choral-orchestral master-
works of the past and new works
by American composers. She re-
ceived her early training at
Wellesley College and Northwest-
ern University. Slade was named
Woman of Distinction in the Arts
by New Jersey's Delaware-Rari-
tan Girl Scout Council. She was
awarded the Douglass Medal for
outstanding service to the Dou-
glass College community. She is a
recipient of the Princeton YWCA
Tribute to Women.

Another goal of st-ART, Shah
said, is to promote affordable art.
Nothing on the site is over
$1,000, she said.
With st-ART Shah also hopes to
make art buying personal. This
can be difficult for an organiza-
tion that is based online, which is
why Shah plans to hold salon-
style openings for artists before
their works go online.
You can have more of a con-
versation this way, Shah said. It
can be very hands-on. The open-
ings will be held at the Arts Coun-
cil of Princeton, which Shah said
has been very supportive of the
new organization. At an opening
people can see art in person, Shah
said, and meet others interested
in the work.
Theres a personal connection
that were trying to foster, Shah
said.

ART can be found online at

The natural role of the father
and the serious consequences of
its dwindling importance in soci-
ety today will be explored on Sat-
urday, June 2, by board-certified
psychiatrist, Peter Crist, M.D.
during his presentation Fathers:
A Forgotten Natural Role, at the
Paul Robeson Center for the Arts,
102 Witherspoon St., Princeton,
from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
The increase of literal father-
less homes, where a father is not
physically present, is a serious
problem as evidenced by a signifi-
cant body of research showing
devastatingly disturbing statis-
tics.
However, Crist will also ad-
dress the even more prevalent
functional loss of the role of the
father where the father is relegat-
ed to generic caregiver, fails to
make real genuine emotional con-
tact with his children and abdi-
cates his natural role as an au-
thority only to become merely a
buddy.
Admission is free thanks to un-
derwriting support. Donations
are welcome. Suggested adult,
non-student donation is $45.
Reservations are recommended.
