Dear Editor: Thanks for a really great article, Creepy History of Snake Hill. However I think the title could have been a less tabloid-ish Fascinating History… as it was a fascinating history. It reminded me of my father having told me how a family member spent time convalescing in the Tuberculosis Hospital. The only mistake …
Dear Editor: On the November 5 Ballot the residents of West New York will have the opportunity to decide for an elected school board. I encourage all residents of West New York to join me in voting “yes” for an elected school board. According to an investigative report issued by the Department of Education Office …
Dear Editor: Hi, I’m just writing this letter to say, we in the Weehawken and Union City Heights section would also like the one hundred steps to be rebuilt like they are doing in the Jersey City Heights section by the 2nd St. light rail. They are located next to Troy Towers. The reason being, …

Dear Editor: Thanks to Jim from North Bergen for his July 7 letter about excessively loud backyard parties. It’s nice to have someone on my side concerning this quality-of-life issue. Too many people allow their backyard barbecues to become outdoor nightclubs that last into the late hours. The problem comes from more than simple inconsideration. …

Dear Editor: I would like to comment on the non-support from some of our State Democratic Leaders for Gubernatorial Candidate Barbara Buono. It is a travesty that the National and State Democratic Committees could not, or actually would not, support the Democratic Nominee for Governor of New Jersey, Barbara Buono. Many of our democratic leaders, …
Dear Editor: I thank Tom Regan (“Destruction of trees,” August 11) for joining others in decrying the eco-destruction of Union City’s Washington Park. A monumental loss of life on this scale is deserving of great sadness. While others are overly fixated on the number of new trees to be planted in and around a renovated …
Dear Editor: The following is an open letter to Regional Administrator Gallo: Dear Mr. Gallo: As you know, we have been very concerned about the numerous low flying tourist helicopters that are causing a serious public nuisance over communities on the New Jersey side of the Hudson River. When we first called for a meeting …
