Trucks began hauling away loads of contaminated soil from Melbourne site

Residents were encouraged to stay indoors during the environmental cleanup.  The action   slated to take up to three weeks to complete  started Monday at the Crane Creek site where contractors had already built the Heritage Park apartment complex along the intersection of Grant and Burr streets. The contaminated soil will be collected, loaded onto 10 trucks, and hauled to a site in Osceola County.  It s a slight victory, said Joseph McNeil, president of the Concerned Citizens Committee, the group that lobbied Melbourne City Council for the site to be designated for environmental cleanup. The City Council initially voted unanimously Nov. 13 to designate the property as a brownfield area.

Not enough transparency for $11 5B tax break bill, advocates say

A day and a half. That s how much time New Jersey taxpayers had to examine a 219-page bill, which creates a program that could give businesses billions in tax breaks, before Friday committee votes  when so many changes were made, it took 142 pages to explain them all. The changes drove up the total price tag of the bill, from $11.5 billion to more than $14.5 billion, despite concerns from progressives the state couldn t shoulder such a financial loss. The full Assembly and Senate expect to vote on the bill Monday and send it to Gov. Phil Murphy to sign. He has indicated he would sign it  meaning the bill would be posted publicly for about five days before hitting the governor s desk if all goes as planned.
