Jeff Tittel Quotations

What he (Campbell) is dishing out is the stuff that's in the septic tanks,

There are people out there who want to destroy the highlands.

Now the money can go for sprawling highways built by well-connected developers.

Overall, there's been a lot of spin and no real policy. I think the next governor should hunt for a new commissioner.

That $75 million will be spent before the ballot question is even approved. If we're going to go to the ballot for parks, then we should really go to the ballot and fix the system.

I was hoping the cabinet would be a breath of fresh air, but there's some stale air there. The people of New Jersey deserve a fresh start that can articulate his vision without baggage.

Without a proper management plan, there should not be a hunt.

The Raritan had to have some work done.

What we thought was going to save the Highlands may be spurring more growth. It will be the people of North Jersey who suffer with more pollution, more sprawl and more flooding.

We don't want this to be used for sprawl.

We need to start tackling global warming and sea rise, and alternative energy is an important part of that. The alternative is continuing to allow dirty coal plants from Pennsylvania and Ohio to dump on us.

Both MTBE and ethanol are bad for the environment, and we don't need them in our gasoline.

There's little hope of seeing any new parks built if we can't get the money to fix the parks we have.

The State Plan has become an excuse for sprawl and overdevelopment. If something is in the smart growth area, it gets less environmental protections and quicker permitting.

People end up drinking their own septic, ... Our patience is worn out. Enough is enough.

A lot of these projects are not really meant to help commuters but to subsidize big developers.

They may not be able to get as much as if they were to sell it to a developer, but farmers don't have the right to pollute the drinking water of 4.5 million residents.

It's as if he's still in the primary, or as if it's July,

It's a clear victory for clean water over developers and pollution, because if they would have weakened the standards, it would have meant putting more families at risk of drinking contaminated water.

It's like being a little bit pregnant. Centers don't work.

It's an important first step. Without it, the red knots could go the way of the passenger pigeon.

It's a very good thing, and we supported it.

That is the only part of his proposal that would work.

Once a watershed is past 30 percent (developed) it's gone. Critters and endangered species are important, but the main reason for protecting the Pinelands was to preserve water quality, the aquifer and the rivers and estuaries.

I don't want to say shy ... but I don't think he really likes working the room. A few years ago we were at a League of Municipalities dinner. I was out saying hi to all the politicians. My other half was alone at the table. He stopped by and just sat down with her for 20 minutes. I thought that was kind of nice.

You can see it, you can taste it. It hits you right in the face. You get behind an old school bus and you know it. We have more roads per square mile and more vehicles per square mile than any other state in the nation, so we feel a bigger impact from buses and diesel pollution than virtually anyone else because we're so densely populated.
