@RaviBhalla Ravi, I have a whole new level of respect for you. I’ve been tough on your decisions in the past and concerned about your political agenda. You truly made the right decision here. Kudos to you.

We are continuing to do everything possible to advance social distancing. To protect health & safety of residents, our OEM has directed all bars & restaurants, w/ & w/o a liquor license, to allow for delivery & takeout of food only. OEM is also implementing a curfew from 10pm-5am

@RaviBhalla Also, just passed Church Square Park. Place was packed. Are we closing parks or just ignoring violators?

In consultation w/ our Office of Emergency Management, we're continuing to take proactive steps to limit the spread of COVID-19, which include the closures of gyms, health clubs, movies theatres & more. I recognize that these decisions will undoubtedly alter our day to day lives

@RaviBhalla How about bars after 10pm like JC? Too political of a move - always that over safety!

@fundee @KenStoneNJ @BadHoboken @RaviBhalla I just emailed Ravi et al a detailed list of what I know and believe we should do, now. @nytimes just wrote this. I wish I could write like the author who says it much more eloquently than I can. nytimes.com/2020/03/13/opi… @Tiffanie_Fisher @HobokenEmily overreact now.

@fundee @KenStoneNJ @BadHoboken @RaviBhalla @nytimes @Tiffanie_Fisher @HobokenEmily Hanging out at bars was Italy a week ago. Look at it now. Absolute social distancing will save us like it did China ex Wuhan. link.medium.com/NzJRPzILQ4

@KenStoneNJ @RaviBhalla At least limit to delivery only. People should not be gathering at bars and restaurants. Limit stores to online or phone orders only too. Leave markets and pharmacies alone but deep clean every day. And encourage phone ordering too.

@lindahoboken @RaviBhalla Vegas is shutting down their night clubs as well. Looks like we will be the last place in NJ to serve as the facilitator of a deadly virus...

A quick note about today’s positive COVID-19 case - the individual was very responsible and once he felt symptoms, he immediately reached out to his primary care physician, quickly began self-isolation before even receiving the positive test (which he is continuing)
Ravinder S. Bhalla@RaviBhalla
We have our first known positive case of COVID-19 in Hoboken - our Hoboken Health Department has been in close contact with the individual who is in self-isolation and those in contact with him, who are being recommended for self-quarantine and also being monitored.

@lindahoboken @RaviBhalla Agree on all points - seems like the world is moving forward and Hoboken is behind the game. I heard bars were packed last night. Virus will be spreading 🙄☹️😷
English
@KenStoneNJ @RaviBhalla Should be closed all together. Look at Italy!

I sat in my car and was confused for a solid 2 minutes thinking...wait, the 25th was a Tuesday, not a Saturday (tomorrow). But realized this was from August, not September. My fault clearly, but how about we take these signs down in a timely manner? @CityofHoboken @theParkingDude

@mike_defusco @RaviBhalla @RubenRamosJr @Tiffanie_Fisher @HobokenEmily Looks beautiful 😳 - Are we trying to keep Jersey City out? If so, can we convince some of their good restaurants (actually good, not like Hoboken’s 5-star Mad Hatter) to come here before the Wall is erected?!

The City Council and mayor are united against the current positioning of a flood wall which would further industrialize my downtown district, reduce property values, stymie positive growth and limit infrastructure. #Hoboken

@RaviBhalla Can you just fix Washington Street? Big disappointment so far. Seriously just make that your only priority - it’s the biggest joke in NJ

Hoboken adds fire lanes to multiple corners, eliminating more opportunities for parking. City Hall put out a lengthy parking survey in 2012/13...no follow through or improvements. Things are worse than ever. @RaviBhalla @theParkingDude @hoboken_horse @mike_defusco @CityofHoboken

@Tiffanie_Fisher @CTLirish @KenFerrante @HobokenPD @BadDriversHOB 15th and Garden desperately needs something - thanks!!
English
@CTLirish @KenFerrante @HobokenPD @BadDriversHOB I have just asked our parking director to consider a speed hump / raised cross walk pilot on these. I have discussed both of these with him regarding 15th and Garden - where we cannot install stop signs. We need to make this happen. Stop signs are not enough.
Hoboken, NJ 🇺🇸 English
15th and Hudson. All way 🛑. Yet nobody makes a full stop. The weather is getting nicer, and more people are out walking around this pedestrian town. Hoping @KenFerrante @HobokenPD will crack down on drivers who run through stop signs and put lives at risk. @BadDriversHOB

@KenFerrante @DukeMBBStats Devonte Graham and Mykhailiuk are seniors for the Jayhawks. Helps your point.

Kansas starters 3 jrs, 2 sophs, Duke 1 sr, 4 FROSH. Nova 3 srs, 1 jr, 1 soph. Mich 1 sr, 2 jrs, 1 soph, 1 frosh. Loyola, 4 srs, 1 frosh. Problem is @DukeMBBStats doesn't get it anymore. Coach K following Kentucky and winning 1 title that way ruined the Duke mystique! twitter.com/espn/status/97…

@KenFerrante Looking forward to your live tweeting today. Best idea ever. Keep up the great work!
