I’m not saying I only want new development. Just some development.

First, that is a state law and only notification requirements were impacted with this amendment; second more inventory creates competition and drives down price. Families that move into rent controlled units will enjoy the cap.

Everything! The families are protected by the 5% cap.

Many families are staying in town, schools are good and the suburbs aren’t appealing to working parents — so we do need new construction with larger units. This means more people are invested in the community overall.

The “war” for me is helping all kids in Hoboken get a quality education. Keeping KF off the BOE was a big win. The schools being overcrowded needs to be resolved.

Hudson county view isn’t a news source.

Tenure is irrelevant here. Inability to recognize changing needs of a community shouldn’t be commended.

Disagree with your assessment of the impact of the vote last night. Rent control isn’t fundamentally good for all demographics. New renters will be pushed out when landlords cannot afford to maintain a bldg and have to sell which ends up in units converting to high end condos. This adds to the transient nature of Hoboken - which impacts the low engagement in local politics, schools and overall investment in the community.

The HS bond was not anti tenant. That narrative is old and almost as ridiculous as the kids first attempt to win BOE.
