So, lets get the land lords / land owners to not pay the property taxes, drop the already inflated price of rent for the renters and have them pay taxes directly back to the city instead.

I typically buy the optional road hazard warranty when i get tires. It covers stuff like that.

What they should really focus on is enforcing the speed limit on Grand Street. Great that they repaved most of the road but eliminating the on-street parking and creating two lanes between Jersey Ave and Grove Street has made that street even more of danger zone than it was before. Meh, priorities. 1. Too much work for the money 2. Need to show the rest of the state how much JC supports the new law 3. $36k is too good to pass up

Thanks jwave.
I am skeptical about pedestrians being held responsible for following this law.

IMHO...
Quote: The Pedestrian Safety, Aggressive Driving, Seatbelt and DWI Enforcement will run from April 19 to Sept. 17 and is funded by a $35,800 grant from the New Jersey Division of Highway Safety. This is like half of one cops salary. I am sure there will be more then one cop for 20 hours a week writing tickets and sending people to court. Big money maker for the City. I am sure it will be put to good use like upgrading all the roads and solving real crime in the Heights and Greenville. Quote: The new law requires motorists to stop and remain stopped for pedestrians in crosswalks rather than merely yielding to them, Comey said. What happens when the person just boldly walks out in-front of your car, talking on the cellphone, whatever, while you are slowing down to stop. What happens when you are walking across an intersection when the light turns yellow and don't have time to get all the way across. What happens when there is a person with one foot on the sidewalk and one foot on the cross walk, not looking to cross the road but just hanging out....you get the point. How bad of an incident will it need to be before a ticket is issued? I am ok with having a law that requires you to stop for someone on the cross walk. However its quite difficult to enforce this law because of what it is and unfortunately of how people are to each other. Quote: And, what's going on with the intersection at Newark ave and route 1/9. There seems to be full-time homeless ppl asking for money in the middle of the road. This law does not apply to them. Go ahead and run them over. j/k

You do realize that the joke is on us if this is a post looking for a local brothel.

Local Bee Keepers in JC would be a tough find I would think, no?
Basic Food in Hoboken and yeah, the farmers market.

I wish they would ticket for parking too close to the curb rather than this. So after looking around a bit and checking this out with some folks in my neighborhood. 1. I find that there are some signs posted near the corners which have an arrow pointing in both directions letting someone park pretty close to the corner. 2. There are some signs that have the arrow only pointing in one direction basically saying you cant park past the sign. 3. These signs were updated long after the curbs were painted the red and yellow colors which seems to not mean anything, anymore. The PCPA have the right to ticket folks who don't respect these signs, but do not care about the paint on the curbs. So it looks like at some point the city re-zoned some of these parking areas and are enforcing them. Lets just feel lucky that we do not live in Hoboken and need to spend our evenings circling the blocks looking for parking of paying to park in a lot. :)
