Like. Chico isn't capable of handling the responsibilities that have been given him. It's sad that he was ever put in this position to begin with. Opportunism.

Just to change the subject for a moment, at about 5:15pm, I saw a certain HCIA employee on the Blvd., in his HCIA vehicle with his son sitting beside him. Hmmmm.

Getting back to Chico, the JJ article today had no mention of Mayor Fulop. Was he contacted about the latest developments for comment? He's usually no shrinking violet when it comes to having an opinion . . .

Thanks for making my point. Got anything closer to 2015, as far as investigative reporting? I did use the njdotcom search feature using 'Newark Watershed' and there isn't any investigative stuff at all recently.

That's just not true, they've been on this as far back as 2012. Here are just two stories I found by Googling. Dave Giambusso was absolutely on this story. http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2012/01/newark_water.html http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2012 ... ry_booker_administrat.html

The fact remains that the Newhouse/Advance media has been handling the Newark Watershed fiasco with kid gloves-mostly just reporting what steps the prosecutors are taking, not being pro-active in developing the story by doing investigative reporting, or keeping it in the news with constant polls, silly stories, and pandering.

I made a Chico Must Go poster if anyone would like to print and hang a few around town.
 Here's a PDF: https://www.scribd.com/doc/261497704/Chico-Must-Go If anyone has more ideas for posters let me know!

from the JJ
"According to Swibinski, Ramchal, hired in November 2008, inspects waste trucks that enter the HCIA's Doremus Avenue facility to see that they hold the proper materials and that the weight of the materials is correctly noted." umm....maybe he was driving around late at night taking bribe money ??

I see one story about the Mets internship. In the last two or three years, there have been countless on the watershed. Just looking at the last six months leaves out a lot of the coverage. Quote:

Whatever happens ... he's going to grow," he said. "Out of the most adverse situations are our greatest periods of growth in life. I hope that's what happens" - Bill O'Dea,
Hopefully that growth is achieved rapidly and involves maturity, morality, and an understanding of civic responsibility... all of which would direct him to "resign."

The SL and JJ are all Advance/Newhouse owned (I know some Newhouse heirs, they do quite well) but a quick njdotcom search shows minor reporting in the last six months, but no investigative action on their behalf. They'd much rather focus on a Mets internship by the Governor's son than millions of dollars looted under the helm of Booker. Has the SL been so zealous in OPRA requests over the Newark Watershed than they have over Chico's car? Not that I've seen.

JCMan, enjoy having the councilman who makes false statements that accuse innocent citizens of wrongdoing to the police, circumvents policies, and blatantly steals from the public he is supposed to represent be a decider on whether or not the 'formula business' provision is adopted. I'm sorry that you cannot see the connection between policies being adopted and the role and integrity of council members.
Aside from that, personally, I would describe Duane Reade as a dump. My personal opinion aside, while I dont know where to find the actual proposal so that I can read it, I imagine existing chains (such as duane reade, which is technically a "grocery store" anyway and thus exempt) are grandfathered in when it comes time to renew their 20-30 year leases. Separately, thank you Terrence McDonald for some stand-up investigative journalism.

Monroe, all this reporting comes courtesy of the JJ, and Newark is out of our coverage area. We stick to Hudson County. But our good friends at NJ Advance Media and the Star-Ledger have covered the Watershed stuff pretty relentlessly. I just took at a peek at our archives (which includes Ledger stories) and see countless stories about the Watershed business.

Great job by the reporters digging this up-but why aren't they going after the Newark Watershed Authority with the same zeal? I would think this would be a much bigger story than Chico using a JCIA Suv for some shenanigans-the Booker led group robbed millions from taxpayers.

You're damn right. One issue is a mayor who wants to take action that would effectively ban many chain stores downtown, raising the possibility places like Duane Reade can't renew their lease and get replaced by dumps. This would impact many people's daily life, no one asked for it, and it's entirely preventable. The other is run of the mill corruption. A public official who may be dirty, shocking! Instead of there being 1,000,000 ways our taxpayer money is wasted we are down to 999,999, which will go up in the next election anyway. By all means investigate this guy and if he's found to have committed wrongdoing, go after him. But don't be so arrogant or small minded to make passive aggressive remarks about how we deserve bad things for not caring enough about what you consider important. And here's a novel thought: people can care about both issues.

JC Listers apparently care more about chain stores in downtown than this...
http://www.nj.com/jjournal-news/index ... y_councilman_suspend.html based on that sad fact, we probably deserve to have decisions made by someone like chico.

Good job Jersey Journal / Terrence T. McDonald for staying on top of this!
Here are the GPS records of his government vehicle. Anybody recognize any of the locations? I see a couple 3am stops at Hollywood Fried Chicken. http://www.scribd.com/doc/260134163/G ... man-Khemraj-Chico-Ramchal Chico is definitely dirty, dirty, dirty. Is he dealing drugs, whoring, or something worse?

I would think he was bar hopping with the truck after hours.

I'm amazed someone hasn't thrown this out there yet, but it seems to me as if Chico has spent a crazy amount of time driving this vehicle around JC and other places after midnight...making several stops each time. One can assume he has a stable of girlfriends out there, but a more feasible explanation is that he's delivering small bags of things to people. Now, I don't know this guy and have no right to blame someone for being a dope dealer, but until someone can provide a legitimate excuse for this guy's frequent "home visits" that last for mere minutes, then what the hell is he doing making all these stops after midnight to people all over the place? Seems suspoicious to me and I could care less if I am accusing this dirtbag of anything....as far as I am concerned, he's pocketed a percentage of my property taxes for the past however long he has been abusing the system in JC. Can't wait until the "higher ups" start getting their own due justice also. Obviously, it's just not the lower end workers abusing this system. Kudos to the magnificent reporters that brought this all to light...too bad out own city employees and MAYOR do not possess the integrity to do these inspections on their own.

Whether the elected person was a public school teacher or county employee, the elected person always had time off to function as a councilperson. If Chico is guilty of this, then there are a boat load of former council people who are guilty of the same thing.
