I figured she had made a mistake and called for myself and was given the same information! Can this possibly be correct? I'm assuming the person working in permits was just mistaken. The whole dumpster was going to only cost $465! how can they justify such an excessive permit fee?
How can you tell the difference between the dumpster you ordered and the rest of Newark?

Booker was an idiot for cutting the police force by about 160 or so, the city never was able to make up those loses combined with retirement.

Development/housing has greatly improved the Ironbound and Downtown Newark.

The city has a quarter million people. One or two neighborhoods improving over the span of 20 years doesn't really say much for the city as a whole.

I guess those rules only apply to Newark, but let’s just forget about Jersey City, Chicago or NYC.

The development across NYC spans 5 boroughs and impacts millions of people. NYC is the safest big city in America. Jersey City has had development across most of the city with the exception of neighborhoods on the south side. You're kidding yourself if you think Newark is anywhere close to being on par with these places. Chicago is a war zone, so maybe they have something in common with Newark.
