Gee Brewster. This was exactly what Christie was working on addressing. Maybe the Dems of NJ should have let him before wasting tens of millions on a stupid bridge lane closing

Hey, I agree!! Neither will ever happen however, there's just way too much money and power in both venues for politicians to ever give either up. HC has not been able to consolidate the police, and only partially the FD. FWIW, if HC were a single city, it would be both bigger in population and denser than Boston, Denver or Portland.

It will be cheaper to get rid of municipal government and just have county government. The county population is around 600,000.

And every one a patronage party hack. It's considered currency in HC, the County is like the Fed printing money. Once you're a "made man" in the HCDO you're taken care of for life, just look at Steve Lipski. After drunkenly pissing on people and resigning from the city council in disgrace, he turns up head of the city Economic Development Corporation, and then an assistant principal at Harrison HS for $122,532/yr. Anyone remember the guy with 2 full time government jobs, a teacher at County Prep and full time supervisor at JCPA? He must be well connected to get 2 plums!

Hudson County proposes $538 million budget with tax increases for 6 towns
BY CAITLIN MOTA The Jersey Journal JERSEY CITY - Hudson County has proposed a $538 million budget that would raise taxes in six of its 12 municipalities this year. The Hudson County Board of Freeholders is expected to make a final vote on the budget, which is $2 million less than it was in 2016, at the body's June 8 meeting. Under the proposed budget, Jersey City residents would see the largest county tax increase, up roughly 9 percent from last year. West New York, Weehawken, and Hoboken could see about a 6 percent hike. East Newark would see about a 3 percent jump, and North Bergen would see just over a 1 percent increase. While Jersey City hasn't seen a municipal tax increase in three years, it is the second year in a row the county's largest city will be hit hard by county tax hikes. In 2016, Jersey City saw a 10 percent increase. Hoboken, too, saw a 4 percent hike 2016. http://www.nj.com/hudson/index.ssf/20 ... s.html#incart_river_index
