90 Teak Rd Dumont NJ 07628 June 3, 2009

Borough of Dumont 50 Washington Avenue Dumont NJ 07628

Mayor McHale and Borough Council: My question is regarding Resolution #09-152. I would like to know whether the individual appointed is the same individual appointed as Certified Tree Laborer under Resolution #09-07 on January 6, 2009. As recorded on the minutes of the January 20 public meeting, I had requested whether the individual appointed was credentialed either by the state (New Jersey Board of Tree Experts) or the industry (International Society of Arboriculture) given the title. Mr. Perkins indicated that he would get back to me. As of today; however, I have received no response from Mr. Perkins. I recall that Mr. Perkins, Councilman Caspare and others praised the individual on his performance, which is reassuring; however, I am concerned whether appointing an individual for a credentialed title when those credentials may not have been completed by the individual sets a risky precedent for future personnel appointments. I would appreciate it if this letter could be entered into the minutes during the public participation-consent agenda only and the response entered into the minutes as well. Thank you for your attention into this matter.

Sincerely,

Kai Chen
