Steve Fulop is asking assistance from an operational view. Getting the JC MUA to fix the flooding and sewage backing up into people's homes when it rains. They're pleading poverty but then they cut North Bergen a sweet heart deal at our expense.....

I'm asking people to contact the following people:

US Attorney Christopher Christie
US Attorney's Office
970 Broad Street, Room 700
Newark, NJ 07102

Attorney General Stuart Rabner
State of New Jersey
PO Box 080
Trenton NJ 08625

Public Advocate Ronald Chen
State of New Jersey
240 West State Street, 16th Floor
PO Box 851
Trenton, NJ 08625

Assemblyman Brian Stack
3715 Palisade Avenue, 3rd floor
Union City, NJ 07087


Just a quick note asking them to investigate the JC MUA deal with North Bergen, which the taxpayers of Jersey City will be subsidizing. Processing North Bergen's waste and rainwater will add approx 24% to the JC load, which the system can't handle as it is. Plus we have thousands of new housing units coming on line in the next 2 years as it is....

The North Bergen deal will hurt us financially for generations as well as make our quality of life worse....

Mia - thanks for a very enlightening video. I think that Steve is running with this, but needs our support. Aside from the the legal options, what else can we do to pressure for action?

Earl Morgan of the Jersey Journal and I discuss the history and mismanagement at the JC MUA. Find out how the money has been squandered filling in city budget deficits to avoid tax increases in election years. No money is available to repair an aging 140+ year old system while new housing is added every day. We've averaged 7% rate increases for the last 10 years but there's no money. The JC MUA has been loosing multi-millions of dollars ever year since they were established in 1998. Learn about the North Bergen deal which will only exasperate our flooding and raw sewage problems while the JC MUA collects pennies from them. The JC ratepayers / taxpayers will be subsidizing the North Bergen taxpayers for decades. North Bergen is about 24% of the size of Jersey City. We need to expose this bad deal. Everyone in JC suffers.
