Zimmer Administration Explains Public Process For Introduction Of 2010 Transition Year Budget

Mayor Dawn Zimmer will address the City Council Wednesday evening, September 1, 2010, to present the Transition Year 2010 budget.
A “yes” vote for the introduction of the budget by the City Council does not represent approval of the budget, but rather a willingness to accept the budget as a starting point to begin its work. After introduction of the budget, the City Council has the statutory responsibility to review, amend as needed, and ultimately adopt the budget.
Budget workshops are currently scheduled for Monday, September 13th and Wednesday, September 22nd from 6pm to 10pm. Directors and the Police and Fire Chiefs will be prepared to present their budgets and answer the Council’s questions. More >

Notice About Discolored Water
United Water customers in Hoboken and Jersey City may have discolored water throughout Sunday. The discoloration is caused by high levels of naturally occurring minerals in the water and a buildup of harmless sediment.
Although the water is discolored, it poses no health risks and it meets safe drinking water standards. However, customers may prefer to wait until it runs clear before drinking or washing clothes or dishes.
Crews are working throughout the system to flush the sediment; valves and hydrants have been opened to move the sediment out of the system quickly. More >
