The Wiley Coyote returns with a budget chart, part of his Hoboken Advocate research showing a timeline for the Hoboken budget’s introduction and approval over the years:

The chart shows in dark blue the Hoboken budget’s introduction and the time until its adoption in light blue going back to Mayor Anthony Russo. The Wiley Coyote known to most as Eric Kurta was inspired to make the chart after one fabrication on Hoboken Patch by a commenter who is banned from posting here but has turned the family aspirations for the Public Information Office under their predicted Beth Mason mayoralty into online neurosis of hatred and bajobseeking envy and that site’s comment section into a cesspool.   For the original entry at the Hoboken Advocate, see: https://hobokenhorse.com/2012/03/city-budgets.html

In a stunning reversal of fortune to the logjam in the City Council over an emergency appropriation, a little known rule with the Department of Community Affairs extending the deadline for a budget permits temporary appropriations.  In Hoboken’s case, it means 750K to be reconsidered under the budget rules.

Previous to that action, six votes were required for an emergency appropriation.  In four separate votes on three different occasions, the sixth vote was withheld among MORTe: Beth Mason, Tim Occhipinti, Michael Russo and Terry Castellano. Read More...

Dear Editor: As a parent, I have a responsibility to do all that I can to protect my children.  When I sponsored the state’s first anti-bullying law in 2002, I did so for the same reason. It is the most basic duty that I share with parents across the state of New Jersey.  And when the opportunity arose to act once again in 2010, I sponsored the Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights, a law that transcends party lines and brought Democrats and Republicans together for the sake of our children.  The physical and emotional well-being of New Jersey’s young people depends on that sort of progress. =&0=&
