Issues

I am always eager to sit down with a resident or business in the sixth ward or anywhere in Hoboken and discuss their issues, whether or not I’m elected. I’m an early riser: but my wife isn’t, so if you’d like to chat anytime as early as 6:00 AM, please text.

I’ve been involved in Hoboken for over 27 years. I’ve recently campaigned against a rent control referendum which would have been a disaster for Hoboken. I also fought hard against the school referendum and even called out the school Superintendent for not being a Doctor for many years where she accepted that title. And of course, while every candidate will campaign on the need for additional recreation for Hoboken residents, especially children: I’m the one who has actually done it: www.playhoboken.com.

As I knock on doors and talk to constituents, I’ll answer every concern to the best of my ability and post those answers here. It’s a work in progress, so keep checking back for updates…

CITY FINANCES
RENT CONTROL
DOG POOP

This photo was taken by Kurt Gardiner who lives in the fifth ward and sells his photography near BWE (10th & Washington) and on his Etsy shop (https://www.etsy.com/shop/HobokenPrints). Due to an issue where the city took away a bunch of our very important benches: he's committed to being outside 7th and Washington for at least the first half of August.

Pier C Park is one of Sela's favorites because the playground features a spider climb to reach a tower that has a long tunnel slide. When she was three years old she managed to get up to the top but was then afraid to slide down. I managed to find Xander, a six year old child of my neighbors Tony and Christine: and I asked him to coax Sela to take the slide down. He was not able to convince her.

Seven Valleys, while technically in the fifth ward, is fantastic. My family's favorite is the medley for two, which feeds three. I suggest choosing at least one cherry rice.

Stevens Athletics has teams in numerous sports. Sometimes I take my daughter to watch soccer or lacrosse. We always root for the Ducks of course.

Church Square Park is the center of town. On Tuesdays, come Spring and until the Fall there is a farmers market where we'll often get some produce and a pickle on a stick. Prior to moving to my current house: I lived at 527 Garden Street, right near Church Square Park.
