Hear Silva say it
From 16 remarks on the record: the newest that say more than procedure, each playing at its second in the meeting.
“Yeah, I noticed that as well, that it said East Ward. So I'm pretty sure it's not the East Ward.”
“Yes. So what was happening here was that a lot of our crews, meaning the city of Newark, whether it was the water sewer department or something else, couldn't start till 9 a.”
“It was nine and that's why we're burning it back to eight. Once again, I think the city does a good job putting out the alerts, traffic advisories.”
“If they're working at seven, then the city needs to crack down on that, obviously.”
“Good morning. So first of all, I just want to give Valerie Murphy a shout out because they do a great job.”
“Councilman Silver. So, just so you understand, ma'am, we follow the ADA guidelines that the federal government sets.”
