As a candidate for Ward E Council, I am offended by Mayor Healy's comments during his campaign kick-off. He said, "Get out to vote so that, as Jeff Dublin said, Jersey City can remain for Jersey City, not some newcomers, some interlopers who don't know the city, don't care about the city, and want to use the city for their own personal ambitions." (read full article here: bit.ly/Z6Bewo).
Mayor Healy's comments dismiss large segments of Jersey City - segments that make Jersey City the growing and diverse community that it is. Whether you have lived here for 50 years, 10 years, or moved here last month, you are a part of this city and deserve to make it the best it can be, which is exactly what we should do. We should strive to help each other, like we did when we came together after Hurricane Sandy and offered help and donations to our neighbors. We should support our artistic community. We should apply for grants that help all of our residents secure employment. We should provide housing for those that need it. These are things that will make our city great - this is what I believe, this is what Steven Fulop believes and this is what all of those running on his ticket believe. I have been here for 10 years and I know this city and I care about this city. And while I am angered by Mayor Healy's comments, I will use that anger as a new-found energy to make sure I do everything in my power to make this city more unified, not less. And I encourage you all to do the same. Candice Osborne Ward E Council Candidate - Team Fulop

Hi everyone -
As a candidate for Ward E Council on Steven Fulop's ticket, I share Steven's views on this topic. Reform is needed and this plan clearly outlines what his administration aims to accomplish in conjunction with key leaders and experts in the field. This is a lengthy plan, so for now, let's just look at the first two sections where he addresses the need for a results-driven culture in the police department and community policing. Results driven culture in the police department: Success stems from an organizational culture that empowers people, which, in turn, creates a sense of accountability. This is aspirational, is needed and can be accomplished by: 1) Requiring that leadership of departments live in the city 2) Decentralizing the organization 3) Defining organization charts with clear lines of responsibility 4) Setting/reviewing goals for each department on a yearly basis Community policing (with a special focus on foot patrol): Community policing can be a nebulous term, but the ideas put forth in the plan are quite specific as to what the term means to Steven's administration: 1) Support career paths for police in a way that aligns with community needs by creating a new level (patrolman first class) in the patrol division and thereby encouraging people to stay in patrol 2) Incentivizing officers who choose tough patrol assignments 3) Embracing a proactive approach to policing where police come to the community (e.g., attending neighborhood meetings) rather than waiting for a reason to interact with them (e.g., in response to a crime) 4) Augment staff with reserve officers to fill administrative needs without heavy structural costs These are just the first two major points that he addressed in the plan, so I encourage everyone to take a look at the plan, digest it and let it sink in. I hope when you do, that you are as excited about the possibilities for our city as I am. Stay warm...I hear it is going to snow! Candice

Safety in our non district schools and daycare centers

Dear Concerned Jersey City parents,
As it's hard for we parents to think of anything but the tragic events at the Newtown elementary school, I inquired at the Jersey City PD's East District Captain's meeting Tuesday night about the coordination/planning for safety precautions at schools and daycare centers in our city. The good news: There is significant coordination between the Jersey City Police Department and the Jersey City public school system. Safety plans are firmly in place and have been for a while. Among other things, those plans include lock down procedures. In some cases, there are officers on campus. The opportunity: There is no coordinated effort between the JCPD and the charter, parochial and private schools or daycare centers. However the JCPD confirmed they would begin those conversations and I volunteered to put together a list of schools for them. Three things I need from you: 1 - Because new schools and daycares pop up all the time, I don't trust the "Google listing" that I found. I would ask you to review the list on the attached link and, if your child's school is missing, please add it to the list. Once I have confirmed the list is final, I will turn it over to the JCPD and will begin tracking which schools have been contacted. https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/jcsafeschools 2 - If you are a parent at one of these schools and are willing to volunteer to follow up in one month to ensure that the communications have actually occurred between the JCPD and your school or daycare, please let me know by filling out the question on the survey. 3 - Please pass this survey along along to others who may not be on this forum. Thank you so much for your help! Candice Osborne

Similar to what Brewster says: here is about a 7 mile run that is hilly enough (you could drop out parts as needed to make it shorter):
Head up Newark Avenue and hang right on Palisade. Cross over 139 but don't stay on Palisade. Instead go right to follow Hoboken Avenue back down the hill. You will end up on Jersey Avenue. Take a left onto Jersey Avenue and go under the train bridge that says "Hoboken". Then take a left on Patterson Plank Road. Here you have two options: 1) stay on Patterson Plank until you reach 14th Street in Hoboken or 2) hang a left relatively quickly after you get onto Paterson Plank and go up a very windy & hilly road "Hope". That will take you to Ogden, which you then take a right on Ogden until it dead ends. You hang a right and will end up back on Paterson Plank. Then, depending on the milage you want to do, you either run to the east side of Hoboken before heading down along on the waterfront, or head back to Jersey City at any point along the way. If you take it all the way to Washington St in Hoboken it will be about 7 miles. You can probably cut a mile off pretty easily by going back to Jersey City sooner.

It is my understanding that the developer covers this cost completely.
Usually there is one officer helping to manage traffic and deliveries. According to the officer I spoke to this morning, today is a major delivery day for the building. They completely blocked off parking from Van Vorst to Warren on Morris Street.

Brewster's point about sewers is exactly why my basement filled with a few inches of raw sewage (Morris and Warren). It happened when the sewers became overloaded during a storm that occured at the same time the fire department decided to flush a hydrant. It was extremely frustrating, costing us time, money and the loss of items that were not replaceable. And while it was perhaps a special circumstance, I don't think that flushing out a fire hydrant during a rain storm (it wasn't a huge rainstorm) should fill anyone's basement with sewage. I understand that the issue is complex, but the city can be and needs to be proactive. Here is an update that Councilman Fulop sent last week for those who are interested. I wanted to send out a brief update to you all on how the resolution to the flooding of the York and Grove Street area is progressing. I have attended several meetings with the State, the JCMUA, Jersey City Planning Division, Goldman Sachs, and Langan engineers. All of this has to do with the installation of the pumps and the control panel at the Essex Street outflow (located at the end of Essex Street on the walkway). The State and Goldman Sachs are involved because the property on which the control panel must reside will either be in the park where the Colgate clock resides or on Goldman Sachs property. Langan is the company overseeing the renovation of the park, which is currently underway. We are lucky in that they will be supervising the design and placement of the control panel for the JCMUA so that it blends into the landscape and does not create an issue with the surrounding neighborhood. Langan has submitted a proposal to the JCMUA and the JCMUA commissioners will be voting on it at their next monthly meeting to be held this Thursday (tomorrow) at 5 pm at the JCMUA building off of Route 440. If you are able to make it I strongly encourage you to go. Seeing people from the community greatly encourages the implementation and success of the project. Additionally, Malcolm Pirnie performed a computer analysis of the junction of the Montgomery and York Street sewers at St. Peters. Their result showed that, with the pumps functioning as they should once installed at the Essex Street outflow, the flow from Montgomery should not cut off flow on York Street. The JCMUA is now working on putting in additional pumps at the Mill Basin line and pump that flow directly to the East side plant. This would free up the York line at the interceptor. The existing York line to the plant can be utilized. Cost would be between $10-20 million. The JCMUA is looking to implement this project simultaneously with the Essex Street outflow pumps. This is very positive news and a strong push in the right direction. Through all of your combined efforts it looks like we will be getting this over the goal line.

You say "allowed". Does that mean required, or does that mean allowed? There is a big difference between the two. To me the question is not whether or not people technically have to vote for people in the same bracket or not, but rather whether or not a significant percentage of the population that votes thinks that they do. The usability of the election ballots is horrible and that is an understatement. They literally put NO user (i.e. voter) centered analysis or design into the ballots, or the wording on ballot measures.

For the record - 1) I think the NJEA is doing exactly what they should be doing and 2) they also have a political PAC I am a non-partisan, not a conservative right. I believe it is a non-partisan group with both republicans and democrats sitting on the board. What do you mean by "conservative right"? This is exactly my point - let's get specific and talk about specific things that they support and discuss the merits of those things. Then the conversation becomes about is this a good idea yes or no and why or why not. What is happening on this thread is just tossing them out because they are some blob of scary right wing something or other (whatever that means.) As someone who knows Shelley Skinner pretty well, I'm not willing to do that. When I look at the things they support such as tenure reform and changing LIFO, I think they are common sense policies that I support. I support tenure reform because I believe that people are motivated via both reward and fear. I support tenure reform because I believe that people are not static and that just because someone can be interested and motivated for 3 years until they are granted tenure, doesn't mean that they will continue to be motivated. I believe this is fundamental human behavior and so therefore I would like to see an incentive system more aligned to human behavior which includes both carrots and sticks. I do not like LIFO because I want the best person in front of my (or any other child) PERIOD. LIFO is such an arbitrary policy that it necessarily means that a better person will get laid off first. Do I think there are other things that can be done besides these two? Of course absolutely. However not every group has to tackle every problem/solution. They have said this is that they are going after and I'll take them at their word and give them support.

Completely agreed that all view points should be heard. I guess my point is that there is a distortion today. To me the vast majority of the public is never heard. I think you look at the natural communication channels of special interest groups (both left and right) and they distort the way our government would behave if all voices were equal. I think it is exacerbated at a local level where you sit as a poll challenger in a local election and see targeted voters who are literally listed as "city employees". Because the general public doesn't have natural and built in communication channels (equivalent of your boss or one of his lieutenants tapping your shoulder to point out the fact that you haven't voted for him), I think a counter balance is good. Because the union does a good job at representing their interest and they have funding via dues and built in communication channels, etc, I think there is room for a counter view point. If that counter view point is funded by a few with more money, but represents the interests I support and builds some type of communication channel around that, then I am willing to give them a shot based on their stated intentions.

I see what you are getting at and don't disagree with you on some of the assumptions in that commercial - I really hate to question anyone's motives - I like to stick to stated objectives. From the website from the NJEA here are the goals: * Member Advocacy - To preserve and improve the economic interests, working conditions, job security, and pensions of all members. --> about the teachers * Organizing - To strengthen the Association by maximizing membership, developing leadership, and supporting affiliates.--> about the teachers * Enhancing Public Education - To promote and deliver quality professional development for educators. To advance and support policies that enhance and enrich public education. --> 1/2 about the teachers / 1/2 about the kids Based on public goals from their websites it is mostly about the teachers. I believe the union is doing a good job at advocating their primary stated interest. I don't think they should be doing a single thing different from what they are doing. I don't think they are bad or evil people - AT ALL. I do think that sometimes interests aren't aligned and I do wonder if the union is fully representative of all interests. If parents were members and paid dues would the message change? That being said - I don't question their motives or intents, I only judge what they have publicly stated via the 3 goals above - which in my opinion - is structured a little to heavy on the grownups and a little to light on the kids. I think you and I probably disagree on the best approach to solve the bad education in Jersey City, but I DON'T for a minute question your intentions and I hope you don't question mine...That I guess was my only point in all of this...

Hi Dan. Actually that is not at all what I am saying. This is a legal structure as determined by the supreme court. You can 100% argue the legal structure is no good and we can have a theoretical debate on whether these structures should exist or not - but it makes sense to do on a totally different thread than this. Just because you don't like the law and think it is no good doesn't mean someone following that law is a bad person with bad intentions. For now, what we know is that there is a group who has stated they want to reform education and they are following the law to do it. I plan to judge them based on their stated intent, their actions and their results. Can shift the conversation back to that instead of issues that are for the supreme court? Do you have any issues with any of their stated intentions?

I think we reach a dangerous place when we make assumptions about people's intentions. I wish we could stick to facts and judge people and organizations based on actions and outcomes before we go immediately to questioning their character or intent.
In my opinion, caring about the educational outcome for urban children is not limited to people of a certain race, ethnicity, economic status, job or anything else. And to imply differently in mind shows a hidden bias. Success and good intentions are not mutually exclusive. I'm not successful, but I sure hope I am one day. If I do reach a point where I'm viewed as "successful" and I want to give back in some way that may not line up with other people's view points on how to solve the issue at hand, does that mean I will turn into a bad and vicious person with ulterior motives? I hope not...

Well if the simplest explanation wasnt the most likely to be true, then I would have bet she was an entertainer being funded by the DNC.
My guess is that in reality her selection as VP was a case of bad politcal strategy group think by a group of people who were hired last minute to help a bankrupt McCain turn around a losing primary while failing to realize what McCain needed to win the primary was totally different than what he needed to win the general against Obama. She was way out of her league for VP but had something that works for celebrity - most people love her or hate her. She's capitalizing on it and laughing all the way to the bank. And I completely agree with Tbird noone wishes she would go away more than the likes of Karl Rove. He's basically said as much in Op-eds.

I was the last person to "speak" tonight at the board of education meeting. I couldn't actually speak because although I called to get on the list, no one answered the phone at that time. Peter O'Reilly was gracious enough to read my words for me. My words are below - for all stats please go to Catalyst.org, my dear friend Sheila Wellington led the creation of this research.
"47% of the US workforce is women. 51% of management level positions in this country are women. But that?s where it stops. Only 15% of public board positions are held by women, only 15% of corporate officer level positions are held by women, and less than 15% of fortune 500 companies have women at the helm. Sounds pretty bad, right. It get?s even worse when you begin to look at the statistics for women of color. The causes of this disparity are many, not the least of which are those of misogyny perpetuated by males in leadership positions in this country. To say, and I quote Dr Epps 'Our worst enemy is the young ladies. The young girls are bad. I don't know what they're drinking today, but they're bad.' To say this is not defensible. It is not excusable to use hate language in 2011. Until we can show love and compassion for every child, regardless of their life circumstances, we cannot progress. To plant 8 girls in the audience does not excuse you.* Dr Epps, your words have cut and the wounds are deep. It is time to be responsible and to step down." * Approximately 6-8 girls stood up and thanked the board of education for something or another. I was told after my statement that this was not a plant. It seems fishy to me that after the holistic denigration of women by Dr. Epps, a large group of women would stand up as a group and thank the board of education that oversees some 30 (or is it 31) failing schools (out of 37). But that's fine I will take everyone at their word, it doesn't change the fact that what was said was said. What I couldn't say, because I didn't have a chance to write it down, is that I know when I get up everyone looks at me and sees a "white girl" from "downtown". What no one in the room realizes is that I hail from a poor rural community down south. Until junior high, I attended a school where for the entire town there was one school and one class for every grade. One teacher for every 36 students and no teaching assistant. I made it through because people cared for me. I am successful because I had an opportunity to receive a good education even when there were little means. The fact that we refuse to give every child in Jersey City an equal opportunity to education is a form of both racism and classicism. This is the ONE thing that we can control for and we are failing or children miserably. I'm sick and tired of hearing people complain about crappy parents and crappy students. This is something that cannot be controlled. What we can control is what we offer our children. And what we offer our children today is unacceptable. I'm sure no one on this message board needs to worry about their children because they can supplement their education...but what about the other kids?

Last night at the forum there was a quiet rumble of independent coming from Francis and the implication that Steven Fulop controlled board would ruin the board's independence. As someone so closely involved with the people Steven endorsed, I can say that she is way off base. If anyone has met Marvin, Sue and Carol they will undoubtedly know that these are three very independent minded people. They showed this very clearly during the community committee interview process. Moreover, contrary to Ms Thompson's belief, board members SHOULD be beholden to someone - VOTERS. By relegating his endorsement to community members, Steven has done just that, given a voice to a group of reform minded community members and voters who don't have the benefit of being part of a natural "machine" (i.e. a union or a city employee) We as voters have every right to tell our elected officials how we want them to vote. And we have the ultimate power to voice our satisfaction/dissatisfaction during re-election. I therefore will be expressing my dissatisfaction with Francis, my satisfaction with Sue and my belief in Carol and Marvin.

PaulBellan-Boyer wrote: A tale of two graphs At last Tuesday's budget hearing, the Jersey City Board of Education's administration presented a handout which purported to describe its proposed 2011-2012 budget. While we presume it to be accurate, many have found it to be less than completely informative. It goes to some lengths to un-highlight the fact that it proposes an $11 million deficit and 300+ teacher layoffs, while not significantly cutting administrative positions. This article highlights another way to mislead by telling the truth. Page P-21 of the budget presentation consists of a pie chart labeled "Advertised Staffing," and showing the "slices" each staff area has of the system's total staff.

Look how lean and frugal the administrative portions look - only 2% for school and district administration. The only problem is, the budget is a document about dollars.
A more informative graph would show you how much is being spent in each staff area.
Here you see that, when dollars are considered, the "administration" portion doubles, to 4% of the total budget, for only 110 positions. Administration plus support staff consumes a whopping 22% of the budget. High by any standard, and in line with Jersey City's unenviable position as the second worst district in the state for administrative costs as a proportion of spending. (104th out of 105 K-12 districts over 3500 students, source: NJ Dept. of Education 2010 Comparative Spending Guide, p.546. Page 186 in the online document.)
The second graph was not included in the budget presentation, but provided by the Jersey City Board of Education on 3/25, pursuant to my question at the public hearing.
You can draw your own conclusions about why a budget presentation would not show the budget impact of staffing. But it seems like another illustration of the old adage that when it comes to spinning data, there are lies, damned lies, and statistics.|
