GLOUCESTER CITY NJ (CNBNews)(July 12, 2012)–Whenever there is an election involving a seat in Congress or in the White House, you can bet your bottom dollar it will be a big year for federal grants to be given out. Even though the national debt is $16 trillion and climbing, the “Washington Elite” doesn’t care; after all, it is not their money they are spending.

For example, in May, a list of 25 towns across the United States receiving money to help pay the salaries of firemen or to rehire firemen was released. The funds were awarded through the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) program of the Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), a program that provides $400 million in grants nationwide for rehiring laid-off firefighters and retaining those whose jobs are in jeopardy due to budget constraints.”

Gloucester City Council to Purchase More Vehicles, Raise Employee Salaries, Introduce Budget

GLOUCESTER CITY, NJ (April 26, 2026)(CNBNews)–To better keep you informed, we have made a video of the mayor and council meeting’s agenda for your perusal. Normally, we would have copied and pasted the agenda onto our website, but because Gloucester City posts the documents as a PDF each month, that process is very time‑consuming. The raw video is below this article. To pause a page of the agenda, click on the page you want to read.

The meeting is scheduled for 7 PM, Monday, April 27, 2026, at the Police Administrative Building, 313 Monmouth Street, in the courtroom.

The 37‑page agenda contains several items that stand out. For example, the agenda includes a resolution that will introduce the 2026-27 city budget, but the amount of the budget is not included. Also missing from the resolution is the amount of the local property tax; does it increase? If so by how much. Instead, the resolution states that residents can stop at the municipal building if they want to know that information. There was a time when the entire budget would be published in the local paper. And, not too long ago, the city offered a Friendly budget that was easy to read.
