First, we appointed former United States ascender to lead to the effort and he has incredible skill and produced phenomenal results. [applause]. Think about this. Tax appeals were weighing down the city. 303 million is owed just to the casinos in tax rebates. Set the senator using the authority we gave him, negotiated that number down by more than 50 , just over 138 million and in 2017 we announced glad you are all seated for this one 1140 11. 4 decrease in property taxes in Atlantic City which means average property tax reduction of 621. This was the result of budgetcutting measures that reduced city spending by 66 million over the 2015 budget and with a jeff in charge the budget will stay level in 2018 as well. He also reached a settlement with the police union, a settlement leading to now there will be 12 hour shifts in Atlantic City, reduced salaries, reduced term lease payments and reduced workforce of 252 officers, all agreements that would not have occurred without the senators
Administration to shut down access to some faucets and fixtures within those schools. Tonight were learning the source of that lead is the same as it was 20 years ago. We also reported on the problem them. Ktvus alyana gomez reports. Reporter good evening, heather and frank. Malcolm x academy and Elementary School you see behind me is just one of the three schools impacted. The School District says they want to make sure parents know its not the water that contains lead.

Do in a holster in a black back pack zipped but not locked under the drivers side of his car and went to dinner. When he returned from dinner the rear window was smashed. The bag and gun were gone. The agent was asked if he should bear responsibility for what happened. Interests no question that he acted negligently and triggered a course of events that led to the death of kate steinle.

In my household, we were never brought up to be prejudiced. I have had many black friends, coworkers, very intelligent, very nice people. And i had a bad experience. My husband played in a band with three white men and three black men. The wives and the girlfriends would get up when they played to encourage people to get up and dance because once they see people up there, they go. And i had a black man asked me to dance. I said no thank you. Only because i was married, ok . This man pulled out a knife. I did not see it because he was behind me, but the lead singer, who was black, saw it and jumped off the stage and tackled him. This did not in any way make me prejudiced against black people for doing this. And once he realized that i was not prejudiced, that i was married and i didnt dance with any man, he calmed down. But i could have been seriously injured. Is i think the prejudice pretty much on both sides. Kimberly all right up next we have robert from st. Louis, missouri. Good mor
