Re: Trendy Management Strikes Again - CO Poisoning - 11 Injured/3 Critical

Quite a regular

Seems when things get tough, they just push it to a different LLC and spread rainbows and unicorns for a little bit.

I currently live in a building that is now under the third LLC he owns, so I do not anticipate much change, although our garbage actually gets taken out now.

Re: Building collapses

Quite a regular

I could be mistaken but I believe the building was sold to a developer prior to the collapse. I do know it was condemned a while back due to structural issues.

You mean rookies, not rank and file. This is part of the smoke and mirrors of cop contracts, they can point to their poor underpaid rookies that they threw under the bus in the last contract since they weren't there to vote.

Or how a few years after they actually get that step, they get frozen again?

Median income of 100k lol. Their contract is atrocious. Frozen for 2 years at 37k. They can't even afford to live here!

The contractor paid the city, whom in turn paid the cop. A portion of what is paid also goes to the city. The city made money off these details.

Meanwhile the fire station closest to LSC is closed, and judging by the sign and the outside of the fire station, its been a while. Doesn't seem like anything is being done there. Millions of dollars going into the neighborhood and no firefighters. I'd be outraged if that was my neighborhood. My friends that live there aren't too pleased about it.

Quite a regular

After "Trendy" took over, I decided to e-mail them on repairs needed in my apartment. Never heard back, which solidified the fact it was just a rebrand.

Many neighbors have gone to the city for housing issues, however they then threaten to evict you if you say anything. They jack up rents way past the rent control rates after they "renovate" units.

Really not sure how the city allows them to do any sort of business within city limits anymore

Re: Hard-Wired Fire Detectors

#12

Has any part of the building recently had major renovation? The inspector could have been under the impression the entire building was recently renovated, thus requiring hard wired smoke detectors.

Re: Hard-Wired Fire Detectors

#13

Quite a regular

If at any point there were hard wired detectors installed, they must be maintained for the life of the building. Whenever a higher level of protection is installed, you cannot remove them and place a lower level of protection. Since the hard wired is deemed higher, a battery operated one cannot replace it, however, it can supplement it. This applies to smoke detectors and sprinkler systems. To go to a lower level, it would require approval from engineers and the fire sub code official.

I'm sure they go lights and sirens for lunch

When responding to an emergency, they must have both lights and sirens activated for insurance reasons. But sure, contact your councilperson, maybe they will only send police, fire, and/or EMS when its an emergency......

You're not the only person in the world, when you need them, they will come, and you'll still complain it took them a long time.

Good luck getting any answers from them. They also manage my building and are very absent in any responses. From my understanding, they are a frequent flyer in court, and usually are sided against.

Re: Bicycle advocacy groups call for crackdown on double parking in Jersey City, beyond

#17

Quite a regular

Ever see emergency vehicles try to get around double parked cars on the way to an emergency? This should take precedence over worrying about bicyclists, not that bicyclists aren't worthy of concern. When illegally parked cars prohibit emergency vehicles from making it to an emergency in a timely fashion, something needs to be done, because an innocent person ultimately pays the price.

An X indicates no entry, on slash means enter with caution. RO means roof open, FO means floor open. Usually have the date posted and building number on them also.

Re: First killing under the new administration.

Quite a regular

In the politically correct world we now suffer in, it doesn't matter how good of a cop one candidate may be. The Civil Service tests are quite a disservice in how dumbed down they have become. They have made it so much easier for people that should not have those jobs, to have them with an advantage. Its not going to make anything better in the long run.

So my question is that if the average Joe (you and I) on the street is aware of this, why does Police command allow officers off at this time, don't have more cops on the street and increase foot patrols in those known hotspots.

Once again, Comey and the district commanders were all inept and I hope the new Safety Director looks at importing new commanders from anywhere but the current pool of senior JCPD officers.

If you honestly think the district commanders would be from somewhere but JCPD, you're wrong. Its civil service, promotions come by taking tests and promoting officers already on the force. To hire an operational level supervisor from outside would cause a huge lawsuit.

They've been known for not following the rules.

Its called predatory towing, there is an act to prevent it. There are guidelines that they are supposed to follow, and rarely do.

What solution do you think Team Fulop can come up with? This is not a knock at Fulop, but there's nothing any one person can do about the homeless. Offer them help, and they end up back where they started. Its the equivalent to career criminals, they know one way of life and find it hard to adjust to anything else.

Homelessness isn't just a problem downtown, its a problem all over the city. All over the nation.

Re: Shutdown Burke's Bar

A complaint to the ABC for underage sales would prompt action from the state. Sales of spirits are not permitted after 10pm, however beer and wine are permitted to be sold during permitted business hours, so that means one can purchase "package goods" until 2am, and 3am on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
