Petition drive continues; city says they're 'wrong'
A group of nearly 40 supporters of the eight Hackensack EMTs to be laid off Sept. 14 protested outside Hackensack University Medical Center last Thursday while continuing a petition drive meant to roll back the city’s privatization of emergency medical services. However, City Attorney Joseph Zisa stated that Hackensack’s form of government does not permit residents to petition for ballot initiatives. Full coverage will appear in the Sept. 5 issue of Hackensack Chronicle.
