What do you expect when politicians give away tax breaks/abatements like candy at Halloween to developers?

What do you expect when NIMBYs/Yvonne do everything they can to prevent new housing from being built and scuttle upzoning?

I'll have you know that I graduated with top honors from Hollywood Upstairs Medical College and I run Jersey City's top discount surgery clinic.

I'm even willing to do the public a great service and give Yvonne a lobotomy that she so desperately needs completely free.

Gezzzz... not sure a morose DB personality like yours can be fixed but we can only hope that you will seek the help you desperately need.

Aren't you conservative snowflakes always crying about how liberals can't take jokes and need to lighten up?

Yes Comrade it is fact! But why you leave out Soros, Hillary and Obama? You getting soft?

I recently moved out of JC to Philly, and received a ticket for recycling being out on the wrong day. We moved in July, but our place just sold, so we were the owners at the time of the ticket. Not sure what recycling the ticket is referring to, since we weren't living in the apartment, but okay.

I was just going to pay it and move on, but it turns out I have to appear in court to even find out what the fine is. I spoke to a woman at the courthouse who suggested I send an email explaining the situation, which I did.

I can't make the court date they set, but also I really don't want to spend hours traveling back to JC to deal with this. Does anyone have experience with this kind of situation? Are the judges generally understanding of people who don't live here anymore?

Only if you care about the 4th Amendment. It's probably our most endangered.

Id rather have someones rights infringed upon for probable cause than someone dead. I guess we differ there.

"Stop and frisk" by definition is lacking probable cause other than a profile. You might feel differently when it's your own rights you give up so easily. Ready to have your house searched for contraband or code violations 'just because'?

Yvonne, after Menendez is elected, I will 100% support any recall efforts you want to spearhead. I don't like Menendez, but damned if I want any Republican as a Senator.

Let's all agree that after this election, Menendez needs to go so we can get someone else in there, preferably a not corrupt Democrat.

Does every crevice of the city have to be built up as soon as possible as much as possible?

I used to live on Monmouth on the other side of Old Colony Mall. I still take my kids to P.S. 3. I go shopping at Ranch 99 and have the occasional craving for Popeyes or a donut from Dunkin Donuts. A while back I used the auto body shop to fix a banged up car for a few hundred bucks that the insurance company insisted was totalled. Point being that I've been around there and still have occasion to go there.

Sure you could spruce up those few blocks and build some townhouses or apartments, but is the city really hurting because they haven't done so yet? If the current landowners are really squatting or speculating that's one thing, but if it's just a question of waiting a couple of years, or maybe building a little smaller, then why give a developer the power of eminent domain at the expense of current owners, residents, and business owners?

In light of the recent tax increases in Downtown due to the reval and pending school tax increases, it's in DTJC's best interest to build as dense as it can, wherever it can. Many homeless people live in that area in the abandoned housing and that area does not feel safe at night.

Bingo! I don't understand why the anti-development people don't understand that. Also, the more luxury the development, the more tax revenue it will bring in (be it PILOT payments or property taxes, it's still revenue to the city). The luxury tower at 99 Hudson alone will have over 700 condos with assessments averaging $750,000. That's over half a billion in new ratables and 6-7 million in new property taxes. They new money can be used to lower everyone's taxes or be used to fund additional city services.

Bike JC is planning to offer our free bike valet parking service tomorrow at Exchange Place, throughout the festival and fireworks.

Do what you like; we’ll watch your bike! No lock needed.

Not exactly sure where we will be yet, but we will have a white Bike JC tent and an enclosure to park the bikes in.

Much better than driving!
