@eaconner Hmm…. They forgot to raid the Affordable Housing Trust Fund…

@bobbyfijan Rent stabilization is designed to allow people to stay in their current apartment. When people have kids they generally seek larger apartments and the supply reducing aspects actually make it harder.

@upzonenj Programs that do not serve a broad base of the community should be reduced. Solomon’s own right to counsel program is 4X more expensive than this parks maintenance savings and will only be accessible to few.

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@SolomonforJC Eliminate your right to counsel program and there’s another $4 million.

Rain falling in CT @Travelers @PGATOUR tournament and the umbrellas carried by the caddies aren’t red? Huge missed opportunity.

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@zeynep Of course they will because the US is the richest country in the world and they will make more money.

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@AlexGleas @JerseyCity Honestly passing an ordinance about backyard pets when the city is in a “budget crisis” is tone deaf and demonstrates she cares more about animals than residents.

[Forrest @forrest1175]

Look at all those empty parking spots @GovSherrillNJ Could have allowed parking, earned revenue and reduced the demand on @NJTRANSIT

Bit grim #metlife

@EleanaLittle Please consider asset sales. Development adds to the tax base in thr long run and in thr short run the proceeds help reduce the deficit.

[Forrest @forrest1175]

Selling assets is exactly what families do when they have a budget crisis. Lose a job? People tap their investments. People downsize housing.

To categorically rule out selling land is insulting to taxpayers. Why hoard parking lots?

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@IcyVert There is a reason this was the most affordable group stage match of the tournament.

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@JNeyhartPA Great event. But an Eagles fan should never call
It “Philadelphia Stadium”!!

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@upzonenj @eaconner Are these really problems in JC? Massive budget problems and the council is worried about back yard pets.

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@THE_Dan_Ulloa Yes but in the meantime grow the tax base and cut costs.

[John Heinis @HeinisHardNews]

.@SolomonforJC held an impromptu presser during the council meeting.

"We are not moving forward with any land sales that were not moving already, right? We have not looked at city assets & said 'we're gonna sell this because of the budget crisis.'"

@TheStalwart Germany so that my match in Philly means more!

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@upzonenj It’s not just because of a tax revolt. It’s because the cost of public services is way too high, largely driven by public unions and onerous regulations / requirements from the city itself. Fix the cost structure!

@LinkofSunshine Harrison, NJ Sports Illustrated stadium. Served by PATH but too small for FIFA

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@JosephSzymanski Definitely see the point for football since our stadiums can be configured for FIFA. Not so sure about the Olympics with more esoteric infrastructure that needs to be built and city / state budgets more and more constrained.

[Forrest @forrest1175]

@itschicagoooo @DAYTRADER_93 @ScottFriedman3 @StubHub @FIFAWorldCup Apparently StubHub has decided to take some action after all:

[TICKETSHELP1 @Ticket_Help2022]

Apparently @StubHub is sending this email with every order.

Maybe they are tired of the backlash from all the dropped World Cup orders.

@FoxworthShow @Foxworth24 Because unions generally protect and provide benefits to their longest tenured, highest paid at the expense of new employees.
