City Council Meeting 2/4/2009 Recap

Here is the a quick recap of the City Council meeting on 2/4/2009:

The ordinance for the $2.2 million in bonds DR-389 was voted down 4-3 with Zimmer and Ramos abstaining Cammerano, Giachi, and Labruno voting for it and Mason, Cunningham, Russo, and Castellano against. The main gist was that if the bill has already been spent then why bond? Common sense prevailed on this vote.

The Ordinance regarding the Parking violations fines increasing passed unanimously as there was little doubt that Hoboken needs to raise fees to keep up with State surcharges.

I didn't stay for the new ordinances it was about 11pm when I left. I will comment on the resolution activity tommorow morning. For now have a good night.
