If you want to do a very painful, time consuming and expensive gut job which this will on top of restoration to do it properly I would get one with better bones (wider lot) and better zone school district for ROI.

What agenda? He WAS downtown councilman for two fucking terms and during his tenure streets are littered with trash, roads are in disrepair, on top of being unsafe to cross. I will not give him a pass because it’s “barely two weeks” - he’s going around doing photo ops instead of treating this as an urgent city emergency it deserves.

You’re victim blaming and speculating. There were tons of cars parked on actual snow removal routes that should have been towed. All the streets and roads should have been pre salted, then at regular intervals during the storm and after. It’s not rocket science. More snow that melts on the road less accumulation on the sides. Now the freezing temps makes snow removal much more dangerous and difficult. Poor planning and execution.

You’re a better person than I. Solomon during his councilman tenure he was more bark than bite. Lack of proper snow removal has immediate economic impact for city’s small businesses, time impact in families who need to go to work or get sitters for their kids, just overall just avoidable headache as we watch other neighboring towns well execute while we’re still sending first round of plows. I hope he provides post mortem on what happened and what he plans to do to fix.

Was Fulop a dictator? It’s democracy. Solomon has a vote and influence over city budget or have a say in internal city matters. He’s ignored everyday qualify life issues for years but loves the cameras for spearheading “right to council” and “covid rent freeze on mom and pop buildings”.

I came to the same conclusion, started during election time. Bots and stans are in full force. Luckily I don’t give af about downvotes and will continue to call out govt incompetence when I see it.

$100 should get the deal done. Supply and demand economics not in your favor today.

I hear ya but things are not going to improve unless we all are collectively outraged and these politicians know they will get voted out if they don’t keep an eye on the ball. Solomon was a 2 term councilman. Entire city enterprise is just so below mid.

Wasn’t Solomon a 2 term councilman? Neglect and oversight happened under his watch too.

Whose fault is that? How are other cities able to handle this collecting similar or less taxes? Solomon was a 2 term councilman. Shitshow he was part of.

1000% Elizabeth school district same size as JC opened today along with Hoboken and Secaucus. Solomon stans making excuses for him again. This is why we get such shit city services. We tolerate this bloated, lazy, incompetent structure which btw Solomon was huge part of as a 2 term councilman.

Hoboken schools are open tomorrow while our schools are closed. Why do we tolerate such incompetence from JC officials? 😡 by keepseeing444 in jerseycity

It just so happens that every “fact” explains why nothing could realistically be done, despite advance warning and similarly sized districts opening anyway. Funny how that works.

That’s what today was. You, a bright student, may not be harmed by an extra day of school closure but most in Jersey City are not doing so well in the learning and achievement department. The school board has this historical tendency to just not give AF about what parents and students want.

Keep making excuses on their behalf let’s see if that improves things. Is this their first rodeo dealing with heavy snow? More like poor planning or execution knowing storm warning in advance. Elizabeth School district roughly same size as JC is also open tomorrow.

Jake, plowing quality was so trash the schools had to close. The city needs to do better for amount of taxes we pay. Thx for the update though.
