Hudson County Freeholders approve a budget, swear in new Freeholders

The urge to use terms like 'freeloaders' and 'swear at' new members was great but we have business to talk here. The Hudson County Freeholders have sworn in their most recent members and have approved a $116.2 million temporary budget. The official swearing in ceremony, for those of you scoring at home, will be Tuesday night at the Freeholders chamber, 567 Pavonia Ave., Tuesday at 6 p.m.

The Freeholders will also choose a new chairman (sounds so Illuminati, doesn't it?) and oh what a vote this will be. Jeff Dublin is the current Freeholder Chairman. He'd like to keep on keeping on. He says he has four votes in support of him keeping the job. He'll be challenged by Freeholder Doreen DiDomenico who also has four votes. Newest Freeholder Anthony Romano will break the tie and ultimately choose the new chairman.

No pressure Anthony, just make sure you secure lots of road money for Jersey City Heights before you vote, just sayin'...
