Support the November 6 Referendum!

jkocis October 7th, 2007

Please come out to vote on November 6th to support the Open Space Referendum. It says simply:

“Shall the City of Hoboken consider establishing a Municipal Open Space, Recreation and Conservation Trust Fund, pursuant to N.J.S.A 40:12-15.7 to be funded at a rate not to exceed $.02 per $100.00 of total municipal equalized real property valuation and used exclusively for:

a.) Acquisition of lands for recreation and conservation purposes.
b.) Development of lands acquired for recreation and conservation purposes.
c.) Payment of debt service on indebtedness issued or incurred by the City of Hoboken for any of the purposes set forth above.”

Passing this referendum does not guarantee that our Council will act! Our hope is to send a clear message to our Mayor and Council that the voters of Hoboken are willing to pay for new open space.

Mark November 6th on your calendar! Tell your friends and drag them to the polls. Every vote counts!
