There will be a public meeting tonight to introduce the Operation CeaseFire program slated to start in Plainfield.
Residents are invited to gather for a presentation and outline of how they can participate in the program, which has previously been described as aimed at reducing gun-related incidents and crime in the community.
Plainfield's program benefits from $450,000 in funding secured by Assemblyman Jerry Green in the FY2008 state budget.
All will be relieved that the program -- twice previously announce and twice previously delayed -- has finally arrived.
Assemblyman Green snags the funding: "Jerry Green bats .666"

Just asking. Looking at Resolution 1427 ( http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/changebudgetproposal/budgetresolutions.asp ) and wondering why description says Appropriates $450,000 for the City of Plainfield for Operation CeaseFire. Yet the PDF file says funding will provide $30,000 to 15 different communities. What's up with that? Also, legislature website says that Resolution is not included in the Budget Bill. Any ideas?
