23 - 1 chief = 22 22 - 1 admin officer = 21 21 - 1 detective = 20 There are other required administrative positions, but let's skip those. That leaves us with 20 patrol officers/sergeants There are 168 hours in a week divided by 40 hours is 4.2 shifts to cover. So to have one single officer at all times you need to hire 5. You probably want at least 2 though as the whole purpose is safety, so that is 10. Obviously you need more than the bare minimum though as there is times officers will be on sick leave or vacation, so another 5 to have proper staffing.

So that leaves us with 5 you could get rid of.

So about a $500K savings, will that stop your town from bankruptcy?

So it looks like they're really going to lean into the dirt and run-down motif this time around.

Rt 21 you drive to survive on that highway

Dover is not dangerous or a dump like a Newark or something like that, but it is obviously less nice than the rest of the county. Its schools are also lower ranked than the rest of the county.

There's a reason it is lower priced.

I was background on the last Joker movie, so I might work on this one if they're looking for more background.

Get a lawyer in the town you got the tickets in. I was about 30 minutes south of home and got a couple of tickets. Found a lawyer in that town. First thing he says, I know the prosecutor. That went a long way to helping me out.

Probably the state troopers that are assigned to watch reddit for threat's lol

Yeah, I could've been more clear. If a third party is opening the road for whatever reason, it's on their dime, presumably from some escrow. If the municipality is, it's from a different pool of taxpayer dollars.

No you won’t go to jail lol you can get a lawyer to fight it for you they will knock it down to lesser charges. Lesser meaning “no point” tickets. These tickets will cost more but the important thing is to keep points off of your license as this will increase your insurance premiums sky high. You will save more in the long run taking the no point tickets. You could also try to fight it yourself, it’s difficult to do but not impossible and nj has set up a system online to appeal tickets njcourts.gov

Favorite? Pip. it’s get so nice the more north you go, and in the autumn it’s awesome

Worst? Rt 4, the entrance in fort lee off the bridge is a nightmare especially in the summer

A good chunk of it was.

lol no way are you going to jail lol.. that's not even an option man unless you endangered someone physically. Just be honest, don't talk back, and if you have nothing else on your record you'll be fined.

Go to court, speak with the prosecutor and see if they lower the penalty/fee, if they don't knock it down just plead not guilty and get a lawyer.

Don't worry. You're not the only one. Didn't know any were shot here either. People just act surprised when others don't know something they do.

I just realized that some parts of Rockaway have a Dover postal code/address but go to Rockaway schools and Morris Knolls. If that is the area you are looking at it is a really nice area and schools are good. It’s the area around Germania Park. That would be my first choice for that Dover/Mine Hill area.

I actually loved the Joaquin Phoenix Joker. Thought it was only going to be an origin movie, so I'm thrilled to see they are making a sequel. Joaquin Phoenix is a great actor. Love his stuff

Wouldn’t be my first choice. Check out Mine Hill - they go to Dover High but have their own, good elementary school program. Most people I know in Mine Hill send their kids to private school once they hit high school, though.

The parking patrol is merciless there. I park a few streets down for free. More or less for peace of mind. It's a beautiful area so I make it a day when I head there. Don't want to think about the meter. Lots of little cafes and odd stores, cute area to walk around.

It's like a hotel at Captain Teebs

I mean there are worse places to die...

The only good thing is a guy like that most certainly will kill himself sooner or later in his vehicle, you know what they say Play stupid games…

Found some gems there over the years! A touch more expensive than some other bookstores but haven't encountered such an extensive collection in one place either.

No jail time (this isn't Virginia), you may not even need a lawyer, when you go to court they will plea it down to "unsafe driving", which is a higher fine. But NJ insurers know this and will still jack up your next rate, they view the known unsafe driving plea as the equivalent of a 4 point ticket.

Invest in a good radar detector along with running Waze when you want to speed, if you have deeper pockets you can invest in a laser/lidar jammer system but probably not worth it unless you do a lot of parkway or turnpike driving.
