Mayor Fulop, who answered about ten questions from the crowd, said his administration “embraces†Wall Street, and that his tax abatement policy was drawing major financial firms to Jersey City.
Later on in the meeting Fulop talked about education in Jersey City, including his history of supporting winning candidates for the Jersey City Board of Education, and said that schools superintendent Dr. Marcia Lyles was making “tremendous progress†in the district.
