Submit resumes for open Hoboken positions by this Monday; administration may review Rent Control Ordinance

Acting Hoboken Mayor Dawn Zimmer is still accepting resumes for the Rent Control Board, Municipal Hospital Authority, and Library Board. She also announced a new opening on the Hudson County Open Space Board.
Resumes will be accepted until the end of the business day this Monday, Aug. 31.
The city is also still accepting applications for several paid City Hall positions including corporation counsel, four directorial positions (one is for a new director of the Hoboken Parking Utility), an assistant public information officer, and a deputy city clerk.
As for the volunteer board positions, here are the requirements:
For the Rent Control Board, the city said, applicants should have an eagerness to become fully versed in the rent control ordinance and be prepared to participate in public review processes to address potential legal issues with the ordinance. The ordinance keeps the rent increases on older homes to a specific limit each year. However, some people say parts of the law are antiquated and would like it to be reviewed.
For the Municipal Hospital Authority Board, applicants should have some degree of experience with health care and/or administration.
For the Library Board, the city said they are seeking applicants supportive of the continuing and expanded success of the library as an integral part of Hoboken’s community.
As far as the Hudson County Open Space Board, the deadline for the new opening is Friday, Sept. 11. The open seat is for an Environmental Protectionist board member. The city is seeking applicants with interest in environmental issues and concern for creating open space in Hudson County.
To find out where to e-mail your resume, see this weekend’s briefs in the Hoboken Reporter, which comes out Sunday and will appear on this page on the same day.
