\"Brigantine\"
Brigantine Lighthouse Circle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

With the popular and sorely missed L’aragosta Restaurant in Brigantine now just a dirt lot, what business is next to face the bulldozer? To answer that question, look no further than Brigantine Auto owned by Dave Tefankjian, also situated on the Lighthouse Circle in Brigantine. It’s also, now, an eyesore supposedly affecting the sale of 3 new McMansions squeezed into a lot across the street.<\/p>\n

Tefankjian’s business offers auto repair and a gas station, and it has one particular developer salivating: Mike Snyder of Brig Circle Investors LLC. After a failed attempt to shut down the Fishfinder, Snyder is now setting his sights on other businesses around that area….including\u00a0Tefankjian’s Brigantine Auto. Is the laundromat next after that?<\/p>\n

Brigantine Auto is under pressure to vacate. Selective enforcement of laws is the weapon of choice for The City of Brigantine.<\/h2>\n

Previously, Snyder successfully acquired the old, contaminated Gulf Gas station next to the Marine Mammal Stranding Center. While most on the island wanted to keep that lot an ‘open space’ and\u00a0grow a small business district, and\/or allow the MMSC to expand, Brigantine Councilman Simpson preferred to support Snyder’s efforts to reduce amenities on the island. Councilman Simpson, along with Brigantine City Manager Ed Stinson, even provided public workers to help connect Snyder’s water and sewage pipes to the city’s main line.<\/p>\n

  • Could Kenny’s Auto be under pressure from Councilman Simpson (Kenny’s landlord)…… to pay a much higher rent…..or vacate the property? We think so.<\/li>\n
  • Could Mad Dog Morgan’s eatery be forced out to make way for MORE homes in that space that once housed a WAWA?<\/li>\n
  • Did the illegal wedding reception \/ open bar on the beach last week, force the city to issue a court summons?<\/li>\n
  • Will Brigantine Republicans SWEEP November elections except for 4th ward? We think so.<\/li>\n
  • Brigantine Real Estate agents and brokers quietly seethe at how Guenther\/Simpson\/Stinson are managing island.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Brigantine Letters to the Editor:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    From Fran Chambers:\u00a0<\/strong>Over the years I’ve heard the Brigantine City Council state how they’re trying to make things better for local business, help them grow and take care of our Islanders. How is getting rid of the last old building at the Circle, and those valuable businesses, making things better?<\/p>\n

    \n

    I’ve heard someone state…..it’s an eyesore with that ugly Army truck there. Really? Maybe you shouldn’t have built your mansion right across the street.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    I’ve known Dave for a number of years. He’s helped out so many on this island. His equipment, that some think is so hard to look at, has helped many during storms. If not for Dave’s equipment, we wouldn’t have a platform to run the Polar Bear plunge…..which is growing….due in part to Dave’s generosity.<\/p>\n

    Then, there’s the issue of codes and zoning violations. They’ll be overlooked (and not enforced) for (Snyder’s) new restaurants to be built across the street from Brigantine Auto. The City is giving Snyder a pass….but the City is strictly enforcing all regulations on Dave’s Brigantine Auto property. How does that work? Different rules for different people?<\/p>\n

    If Brigantine Auto gets forced off the island, then you’re forcing all of us off, who need his service. This really stinks and is so unfair. People will remember all of this. You can hear the talk around the island. They will vote for change in November.<\/p>\n

    Fran Chambers<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n

    From<\/strong> Robert M. Connor:\u00a0<\/strong>I know the owner of the\u00a0station, Dave\u00a0Tefankjian, on\u00a0a personal and professional\u00a0level quite well. I have been\u00a0able to turn to Dave not only\u00a0to buy gas at a fair price, but\u00a0to get my vehicles serviced and repaired for the past 15\u00a0years. He and his employees\u00a0are always very courteous.<\/p>\n

    I remember the \u201cold\u201d\u00a0Brigantine with many older\u00a0businesses like Dave\u2019s. Most\u00a0of the other places have been\u00a0torn down. This town, this\u00a0island, was a charming community, a beautiful quaint little town. Now, it\u2019s hard for\u00a0anybody to move here to live\u00a0unless they\u2019re very wealthy.\u00a0Is that really what\u00a0Brigantine, \u201cthe new\u00a0Brigantine,\u201d is all about?<\/p>\n

    I find the new\u00a0construction and extravagant\u00a0houses bothersome as the old\u00a0Brigantine is being lost. I remember when Hurricane\u00a0Sandy hit the island. Dave had\u00a0his equipment out there in the deep water helping move people who had decided to stay,\u00a0trapped in their homes to shelters. And of course he is more\u00a0than willing to help people\u00a0when their vehicle is stuck in\u00a0the sand on the beach.<\/p>\n

    To put Dave out of business would be unfair and\u00a0unjust to him, his employees\u00a0and the community. I think\u00a0people who feel that this gas\u00a0station needs to be torn down\u00a0need to check themselves on this issue.\u00a0Dave and his employees\u00a0have families to feed and need\u00a0to work. Suggesting he can no\u00a0longer be located in the circle\u00a0because his business \u201cis an\u00a0eyesore\u201d is ridiculous.<\/p>\n

    To\u00a0people who have\u00a0recently moved onto this\u00a0island, they may not know\u00a0our island history. They\u00a0just build a big house that\u00a0they visit over the\u00a0summer\u00a0and decide his business\u00a0does not fit their ideal. It is\u00a0simply unjust.<\/p>\n

    In my opinion, now is the time to come\u00a0together and pool our\u00a0resources to help one of our\u00a0own, Dave\u00a0Tefankjian, a fine\u00a0upstanding citizen of our\u00a0community.<\/p>\n
