If you’re used to picking up meals at a curbside food truck, you’ll be interested to know initiatives are underway by the city councils in Jersey City and Hoboken to levy much higher fees and regulations on food truck vendors. Some operators claim the new laws would drive them out of business.
Our Jersey City paper has a story about an author who has written a new book about Jersey City’s former mayor, the legendary Frank ‘I Am The Law’ Hague.
