The Push to Privatize

Neither deal is final. Negotiations with the track operators are ongoing, and the legislature must sign off on the NJN proposal. But once the details are hammered out, the move could net the state $30 million or more in savings and income.

The move to privatize services has met with mixed response. Democrats have criticized the Christie administration's efforts as based on ideology. Some departments have rejected the idea as impractical. Yet other administration officials have vowed to search for new ways to outsource government operations to the private sector. The state has also not announced any program or entity to monitor the privatized services, as has been strongly recommended.

"Governor Christie is committed to using the vast, largely untapped potential of the private sector in a sensible way to meaningfully reduce the cost of government operations, increase efficiency and achieve real savings for the overburdened taxpayers of New Jersey, wherever appropriate," Kevin Roberts, a Christie spokesman said. "We expect current efforts, as well as future opportunities, to bring real savings."

Roberts called the recommendations of the New Jersey Privatization Task Force, headed by former congressman Dick Zimmer, "a good start" and said several of the proposals, as well as others not in the report, "are being vigorously pursued" and will eventually help balance the state budget.

Still, what was expected to be the most lucrative of the projects -- outsourcing toll collections on the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway -- was taken off the table last month after toll collectors agreed to reduce their salaries from about $65,000 to $49,500 over two years. The task force had estimated at least $35 million in savings would result from outsourcing the toll collections.

But the state is moving ahead with two other big-ticket initiatives: The proposed privatization of New Jersey Network and the state’s racetracks.

Changing Channels

On Monday, Christie finally unveiled his administration’s plan to transfer the TV operations of New Jersey Network to another entity -- WNET Channel 13 New York Public Media -- and to sell the assets of its radio network to the New York and Philadelphia public radio affiliates.

Under the proposal, NJN would become NJTV, operated by a new non-profit entity established by WNET called New Jersey Public Media. The five-year deal would guarantee a New Jersey news show similar to NJN’s nightly news would be broadcast four times a day. The state would retain ownership of the licenses but all but six of NJN’s 124 state employees would be laid off. (The six retained employees are needed to operate several TV transmitters and broadcast facilities.

The network as a whole averages appx 1500 unique organic visitors per day at the moment. These rankings have been stable for a very extended period of time.

The public records market is one of the most popular niches available, and with some additional promo, the traffic to these sites can easily be increased beyond the already substantial traffic.
