  1. The excavating contractor should be sent an invoice for police salaries incurred in connection with the incompetent actions.

  2. BAN ALL UTILITY POLES.

    LET’S IMPLEMENT A MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR PROJECT TO BURY UTILITY LINES.
    .
    IT WILL BE ALL WORTH IT IF IT COULD SAVE JUST ONE……

  3. That’s the Deputy Mayor’s son Zach, on the job WORKING for his salary, unlike Paul Aronsohn who got a $122k per year taxpayer funded job from Phil Murphy and has been regularly seen walking around Vets Field during a weekday. And Aronsohn had the chutzpah to try and block Zach Knudsen from being hired.
