I think Wednesday is going to be a very interesting evening especially in light of Viola's introduction of 90K/yr full time council positions.

Here is what I don't understand. I was watching the Caucus meeting and when Fulop introduces the slogan on the city owned vehicles Richardson got all defensive and said "thats fine" "i have no problem with that" "i don't care". She was the loudest about it. Fulop originally proposed that the cars have 6 in worth of writing. Richardson said "why cant the cars look like all the other city cars?" (basically with an emblem and smaller writing, Fulop didn't really have a problem with that).
So, Counsilwoman Richardson, why can't the cars look like all the other city cars? Because you voted against it.

Good questions to ask Gaughan at the next meeting. It could be interesting to hear him respond on record. Is he afraid to leave a paper trail? If his constituents want to reach him, why must they have to take time off from their day jobs to make a trip to City hall? I have an idea, why don't we all write to him and request a response, in writing! If his aide is his daughter, why is she more qualified than other job candidates of Jersey City? It's disgusting.

I heard that Bill Gaughan stated that "e-mail is for yuppies!" Whay can't we hear him explain for himself why he does not have either voice mail or e-mail.

As a side note, neither Bill Gaughan nor his aide (his daughter BTW) have voicemail at their numbers. The numbers just ring and ring if nobody answers. Doesn't matter though, with the exception of Fulop, none of the councilmembers seem to listen to their voicemail anyway...

The City Council is planning to approve new union contracts with Police and Fire at the March 10 meeting. At a time when the City is furloughing and laying off non-uniformed staff, Police and Fire are getting 3% plus raises for the next four years. And the uniformed services continue to get additonal benefits like $50,000 in tuition reimbursement.
Most Police and Fire personnel don't live in the City and don't pay taxes here. In these fiscal times a better deal with these unions should have been struck. But our craven City Council will do nothing.

There are multiple additional ways we can demonstrate our dissatisfaction with the Mayor, the members of the City Council, and the current political power structure of the City. One of them is to come to the meeting and show our numbers.
Another alternative is to call the Mayor and members of the City Council every day and demand that they resign, lower taxes, provide better service, take a pay cut, etc. Name, contact information to the Mayor and the members of the council are Mayor Jerramiah Healy MayorHealy@jcnj.org Tel: (201) 547-5200 Fax: (201) 547-4288/5442 Council President Peter Brennan BrennanP@jcnj.org Tel: (201) 547-5319 Fax: (201) 547-4678 Robert Noakes, Council Aide NoakesR@jcnj.org Tel: (201) 547-5363 Councilwoman-at-Large Willie Flood Tel: (201) 547-5134 Fax: (201) 547-4678 FloodW@jcnj.org Annie Jenkins, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5108 Councilman-at-Large Mariano Vega, Jr. Tel: (201) 547-5268 mariano@jcnj.org Hilario Nu?ez, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5458 hnunez@jcnj.org Ward A (Greenville) Councilman Michael Sottolano Tel: (201) 547-5098 SottolanoM@jcnj.org Robert Rybinski, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5060 RybinskiR@jcnj.org Ward B (West Side) Councilman David Donnelly Tel: (201) 547-5092 DonnellyD@jcnj.om Khemraj "Chico" Ramchal, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5101 DonnellyD@jcnj.org Ward C (Journal Square) Councilwoman Nidia Lopez Tel: (201) 547-5159 NLopez@jcnj.org Kerry Jicha, Council Aide Ward D (The Heights) Councilman William Gaughan Tel: (201) 547-5485 bgaughan@hcnj.us Bridget Gaughan, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-6817 Ward E (Downtown) Councilman Steven Fulop Tel: (201) 547-5315 FulopS@jcnj.org Pam Andes, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5315 pandes@jcnj.org Ward F (Bergen/Lafayette) Councilwoman Viola Richardson Tel: (201) 547-5338 RichardsonV@jcnj.org Lorenzo Richardson, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5361 If you have a moment during your day, spend a minute and call any of them to tell how negatively these proposed tax increases are affecting you and your family. They need to hear our voices and they need to start listening to our ideas. BE THERE ON THE 10th!
