A Vision of Safety
Here’s a math problem for the statistically oriented folks in our region: 1. Take the number of traffic deaths and accidents that occured on Rutherford highways and ramps since the inception of DOT construction in the area. 2. Compare it to the number of traffic deaths and accidents that occured on Rutherford highways and ramps during an identical time segment previous to construction. 3. Chart the traffic deaths and accidents that occur for an extended time frame, post-construction. (In fairness we must add traffic deaths and accidents in the entire south end of Rutherford - consequential and extreme changes in traffic patterns will become a resultant statistical part of the construction project’s safety rating. Correlate all the information, and then we will have a true idea of the “safety vision†that the NJDOT has gifted us with.

SIERRA CLUB CONTINUES DISSEMINATING INFO ON XANADU/AMERICAN DREAM
SIERRA CLUB CONTINUES DISSEMINATING INFO ON XANADU/AMERICAN DREAM
WHERE ARE YOU ON THIS???--- (**the following is an excerpt from a July 10 release by the Sierra Club**)- "A poll came out in June showing that 58% of New Jersey residents do not want tax money to be used to help out the American Dream mall. However Triple Five, the Canadian based company developing the mall has asked for tax-free financing that could be as much as $800 million. Triple Five already has received $350 million because of a no subsidy cap that was passed in June. In total they could receive $1.15 billion through subsidies and government financing." [See "peace demonstration" menu] - THIS BASICALLY MEANS THAT 58% OF NEW JERSEYANS ARE OPPOSED TO XANADU. - WITHOUT A TAX DOLLAR BAIL-OUT, THE PROJECT STOPS. – Will we tell public servants where to stand? - Currently, bureaucrats are deviously forcing this issue. - The roles should be rightfully reversed. Citizens tell public servants what to do. - Public servbants work for citizens, and citizens pay them for their work. - 58% opposed is a considerable majority - This is a democracy. Autocracies are for those who need to be spoon fed.
