Re: Jersey City motorists have till June to pay outstanding tickets

Why did I expect anything less from this site... first of all I pay my bills.. on time no less obviously if I had RECEIVED a registration renewal in the mail I would have renewed it end of story... never received it I had a new car and my registration was good for 3 years or something like that so I honestly didnt think of it. It would have been nice if they pulled me over to let me know instead of just giving me tickets left and right

Why am I just now seeing this? So for the past three weeks the cops have used this system because unbeknowest to memy registration expired so these cops anytime they are in back of me run their little plate reading device and were issuing me tickets for expired registration without even pulling me over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So frustrated just a heads up to anyone make sure everything is on the up and up with this new stupid system I forsee a TON of boots in the future, but wait it says they could be subject to arrest and impound of their car... for an old ticket??? REALLY JC?

Grace period for scofflaws
Monday, May 16, 2011

Motorists have until June 1 to pay outstanding traffic tickets before their names are entered into a database that can be accessed by police vehicles equipped with new license plate-reading devices.

The Jersey City Municipal Court and the Jersey City Police Department instituted a grace period during which citizens can make arrangements to pay their fines, according to a statement by Police Chief Tom Comey. The grace period ends June 1.

Police vehicles equipped with the license plate recognition reader devices will focus on vehicles registered to motorists with outstanding tickets, fines and scofflaw warrants and violators will be subject to arrest and having their vehicle impounded, Comey said.

Anyone wishing to pay their tickets or fines or to address warrants can do so by appearing at the Jersey City Municipal Court, Violations Bureau, 365 Summit Ave., Jersey City, during court hours.

By law your landlord must give you the information on your interest bearing account, if she doesnt you have every right to withold rent in the amount of your security deposit, I did it with my last apartment because she never deposited my money into an account. And yes I would move the hell out of there

My wife and I bought in Lafayette (near Pacific / Lafayette) after living both downtown and in Greenville. We were impressed by costs, housing, proximity to LSP and light rail, and what seemed like a funky, artsy, up and coming atmosphere. Neither of us are hardened urban types - we're both 40ish professionals who've lived in all kinds of environments (including Texas, where I lived for nine years).

We haven't been disappointed - we love it. We spend less than half of what we spent downtown, and are at the PATH station in 20 minutes on foot, or 10 by bus or light rail. People here are extremely friendly: we quickly met a lot of our neighbors and have become good friends, something that never happened downtown or in Greenville. There's also a good number of artists & alternative types to be found. We're runners, and being that close to Liberty State Park is beyond description.

There's definitely a downside, as several have pointed out. It's not as secure as downtown, for sure, but we've never had a problem. We don't walk around at night; if we get home late, we usually take a $6 cab from Grove St. There's the obnoxiousness of the guys who cruise around all summer with window-shaking music cranked up at all hours; but on the other hand, we lived across from an office building downtown that was just as loud every morning starting before 6am when the industrial document shredding truck came to do its work.

If there were one thing I could change, it would be the situation with restaurants, bars and coffee shops - there aren't any. The closest local is the beer garden, a good 15-minute walk.

It sounds to me like you could be really happy here if you do your research, find a neighborhood you like, and understand the pros and cons. Happy to offer any more thoughts or suggestions. Good luck!!




Totally agree with you on the restaraunt situation, we don't even have chinese close by over here, we order from Future which is downtown, most places do deliver down here but it would be a great asset for a little place to open up over here.

I live here, right by LSP I just moved here in June and I had my eye on this area for awhile now to move over here, I moved from a pretty rough area in JC to here, we are at the very end of Communipaw, and have never heard or seen any problems since we have been here. We live on a dead end and its pretty quiet and while I definitely cant say that crime is non existant over here I do read the paper, I usually am not out perusing the streets at 1, 2 am. It is exactly what you said an up and coming neighborhood rough around the edges but the neighbors are generally friendly enough lots of dog owners around here and so close to LSP. I like it way better then where I was and we have a huge backyard that backs up to the park!

Seriously what was Christie going to do if he flew back? Meanwhile he wouldn't have even been able to make it back because the airports were closed and flights were canceled for days!! If you think about it most times we hear about these storms for about 10 damn days till they hit, I didn't hear about this storm till Christmas night, no one was prepared plain and simple and we realy should take a note from NYC and take the snow away rather then piling it up

Re: Beware of Dog!!
#72
Home away from home
Home away from home


As a dog owner, we are not in complete control of our dogs ever totally 100% im sorry. Any little minor thing can set a dog off especially when meeting another dog that they are not familiar with.. ESPECIALLY when said dog is way smaller then the other dog. If I had a teeny tiny dog like that I would not let a big dog approach my dog just for the simple fact that accidents happen. I think when you have a small breed you should take the proper precautions to protect that dog, similiarly I do not think you would take your dog into the large dog run at a dog park. I have a big dog look at his picture, if I was getting mugged I think he would look the other way... the kids ride him like a horse and he just lays there... One day I was walking him and another owner said the same thing that it was fine to approach, this dog was a little smaller and clearly older, he attacked my dog and we walked away from it bleeding. I learned my lesson but never thought about blaming the owner because I too took the chance to meet this dog, and dogs react differently to different situations your never 100% safe remember that.

Hope your doggy feels better soon though

Well I started to go there but went next door instead, I was already regretting it after I had already just ordered the pie, the owner even admitted that everyone says his neighbor is better, but leave it to me and rooting for the underdog, I def want to try them soon though and they will deliver anywhere in JC they said.

Re: Which local downtown JC hospital is better for Emergencies?

Home away from home


JCMC is a JOKE, I don't even know what is going on over there, last time I attempted to go there, pregnant I woke up in a pool of blood at 2am, I sat there in the waiting room until 6am without even being called in to see a doctor. Needless to say I left, I tried to go to Christ but could not find any parking, I went back home and called my doctor as soon as they got in. That being said IF you drive, I go to Meadowlands Hospital for emergencies its about a 15 minute drive and you are in and out and I have never seen more then 3 people in the waiting room nor have I ever waited to be seen more then an hour, I am actually delivering my baby there and refuse to go to any JC hospital. Anytime you go to JCMC for the emergency room expect to wait at least 4-5 hours to be seen. There is no system there it's a complete clusterfu**

Re: towing at shoprite

The Rebuttal -

http://www.nj.com/hudson/voices/index ... egitimate_towing_bus.html

In response to Joan Kristensen\'s letter in yesterday\'s edition about being towed for parking illegally in a private lot near B.J.\'s:

Your complaint about being improperly towed is flawed by your own behavior. No, it\'s not a tax scam; you see the tax is $2.10, which is billed into the receipt you received at our office. You also could have called a legitimate taxi company for the ride to our office and not jumped into a gypsy cab. Since when do you expect to park free in a lot that\'s clearly marked for use of store customers?

The problem is that you could have parked at Chili\'s parking, which is located at a nearby garage, but instead you took a chance in a private lot.

Unfortunately, you are not alone; it seems that many people risk the tow while shopping in Newport Mall. Instead of paying a parking fee at the mall they want to park for free. I\'m sorry for your trouble, but it was your own decision to park in a private lot.

You also stated you thought you would have to wait all weekend for your car; in truth, you picked up both cars one hour and 20 minutes later. It is a business and we are in business to make money. We provide a service for parking lot owners to remove vehicles that are parked illegal. There are approximately 64 signs in that lot, and legally there are supposed to be only four. We have 64 as a courtesy to people who park illegally so they can\'t say they didn\'t see the sign!

We run a legitimate business, which is a very difficult one, and when we make a mistake, be assured, we own up to it!

I wouldnt be sympathetic either, I mean to an extent, I do sympathize that their towing fee is astronomical and I would have never accepted a receipt for 150 when I clearly paid much more, duh. But you clearly said you knew there were signs posted and you still took the chance it sucks, and chalk it up to a bad idea. Whether you were there for 10 minutes or an hour the point is you still parked where you were not shopping, if everyone did that the lot would never be empty going to that little mall anytime is bad enough with the parking without the enforcement it would be a mad house. That being said I do sympathize with their fees and unavailability to get your car returned.

You should expect a bunch of waiting, I had mine last year... It wasn't too bad only lasted a day, I brought my laptop which helped pass the time, they have booths you can use with outlets to plug it in so it won't die on you. Lunch you really cant go too far, there is a deli and a mcdonalds on that block, your options pretty much suck as far as lunch goes, I would bring mine if you can.
