The Jersey City Municipal Council on Jan. 2, 2025, approved three resolutions by roll call vote: a temporary 2025 budget, acceptance of $603,339.92 from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and authorization to discharge a mortgage on a Halliday Street property; the measures passed 8‑0 with one member absent.
The Jersey City Municipal Council voted Jan. 2, 2025, to approve three routine resolutions: a temporary budget for calendar year 2025, acceptance of $603,339.92 from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and authorization for the business administrator to execute a discharge of mortgage for property known as 377‑379 Halliday Street (block 17402, lot 3, formerly block 2077, lot 34).
Council members voted by roll call on items 10.1 through 10.3. The clerk called the roll and council members present recorded "aye." Council President Waterman announced the resolutions were approved 8‑0 with Councilperson Solomon absent.
The three items read into the record before the vote were: • City Resolution 25‑001 — approval of the calendar year 2025 temporary budget. • City Resolution 25‑002 — acceptance of $603,339.92 in funds from the U.S. Department of the Treasury. • City Resolution 25‑003 — authorizing the business administrator to execute a discharge of mortgage encumbering 377‑379 Halliday Street, Jersey City (block 17402, lot 3; formerly block 2077, lot 34).
No individual motions, seconds or roll‑call dissent were recorded in the meeting transcript beyond the ayes and the final announcement; one council member (Solomon) was absent. A council member asked a clarification question about the property discharge before voting; staff responded that additional information had been provided based on an LLC question and the item proceeded to a vote.
The council adjourned at approximately 6:35 p.m.
