Wrong. There are still a small number of older City employees who are in the pension plan the City used to offer to employees (ERS). The ERS plan is managed by the City.

Why when the City is in horrible financial shape and property taxes are rising are any City employees getting raises ?

Police, Fire, Crossing Guards all getting raises and the taxpayer be damned.

It's highly unlikely Healy will ever get rid of any of the high-paid, no-show hacks he has on the City payroll.

The system of negotiation when governments deal with their workers is clearly broken. I can't remember where I read it, but someone said the problem is governments must give big raises when times are good or look cheap, and give big benefit increase promises when times are bad in lieu of those raises. Heads they win, tails we lose.


You clearly know nothing of the salary situation in Jersey City government. Employees classified as management have no union and haven't received any raises in over 3 years. Most non-uniform City employees belong to pathetically weak unions and receive only token raises on a yearly basis. Many only make between 20K to 40K and now are subjected to furloughs.

Of course Police and Fire personnel have been gouging the City for years. But to paint all government workers with one broad brush is unfair and wrong.

a successful contract can allow us to move forward confident in our local control.



Are you serious ??!! This kind of statement is why nobody took your candidacy for Mayor seriously in the first place. Steve Fulop knows that Epps must go. Sue Mack and Sterling Waterman did the right thing and voted no. Your mealy-mouth reponse sounds like it came from Carol Lester.

This is why people can't stand the uniform services in Jersey City. Police and Fire have this arrogance, this sense of entitlement, while they bleed the City dry. And most don't live here. All they know is gimme gimme gimme, and whine when they don't get it. There are many captains and battalion chiefs on the Jersey City force who do NOTHING !!!

The one possible good side of all these Police and Fire retirements is that the new guys will make less. Hopefully the City will get leadership that won't give away the store to Police and Fire. FULOP 2013 !!!!

Baloney. Indios is a fairly new place and certainly not a "staple of the community". Unless you are a drunken thug looking to rumble at 2AM.

You obviously don't live in the neighborhood. Night after night, especially in summertime, the Latin Lounge patrons are screaming and yelling and booming music till 2 or 3 AM. Then they and the Indios cretins pile into the streets to yell and brawl with each other.

Many of us in the neighborhood signed a petition to get Indio's liquor license pulled, to no avail.

Call it ranting, but Indio's is a real blight on this community. I would think part of the planning process would be to remove any blighting influences to a redevelopment project. It's a shame Fulop hasn't done more to address this.

I wish you all luck. But until Indio's Place is closed down that block will still be a mess. A beautiful Park with a bunch of cretins lurking across the street. Ugh.

I have no doubts that the guy caught with the Tec-9 was a patron of Indio's Place. He probably stashed the gun in the fenced park across the street.

The loud and lewd behavior from Indio's Place and the Latin Lounge has been going on forever. A petition was passed to deprive Indio's of their liquor license but nothing ever happened.

My son was woken at 3 AM recently with a full blown fist fight going on on 1st St. The cops can't respond quick enough in these incidents.

Indio's must go !!!!
