We definitely agree on this Yvonne. Most folks in JC don't realize how hard Hudson county can hit JC residents in the wallet. The impact on property taxes, rents, etc - directly and indirectly - is as huge as anything the city does. We need to make these invisible men, like DeGise, more visible to voters and our paychecks.

More than a quarter of the ratable base is not there due to abatements. DeGise, as council president voted on every tax abatement under Schundler. The ratable base should be $8.7 billion but it is under six billion due to tax abatements. The higher the ratable base the lower the taxes.

Kick this old-school bum out.

When everyone in JC is hurting with property taxes, he tries to sell us an increase of 5.8% in JC taxes as some kind of reduction, just because it was reduced from a proposed 6.6%???

Given county taxes are about the same as City taxes for most homeowners, that pretty much means the 2% or so City reduction is eaten by DeGise for his County lunch. That bum has to go.

Jersey City was to pay $102.3 million toward the original county budget, an increase of 6.6 percent over 2013, or $100 more for the owner of a home with an average $93,000 assessment. Under the amended budget passed tonight, Jersey City will pay $101.6 million, an increase of 5.8 percent over last year.
