Jersey City’s council is sounding the alarm over sweeping provisional layoffs in the Department of Health and Human Services, where eight staffers were let go — the highest in any department — amid steep budget cuts. Council members are pushing back on cuts to senior programs, questioning why a bus driver was axed while an underperforming in-house role was created. With clinics now closing at 4 PM and health education services slashed, the city is scrambling to balance fiscal realities with essential services. Officials say civil service rules drove the layoffs, but the council demands transparency and public input on how to prioritize spending — especially as grants may offset some costs and departments restructure to cut waste.
