New fertilizer laws in effect for New Jersey homeowners

Every year, new laws are introduced which New Jersey homeowners should take notice of, or end up paying the consequences. 2011 is no different, and this time around, the way you take care of your lawn could get you in trouble. Homeowners in New Jersey should be aware of the new fertilizer laws that are in effect for this spring season. Some of the new rules to go into effect this year include:

  • Season for homeowners to fertilize their own lawn is March 1 to November 15.
  • Lawn care professionals have a season of March 1 to December 1.
  • Fertilizer cannot be applied within 10 feet of a water body or left scattered on pavement.
  • Lawn fertilizers must contain at least 20 percent of their nutrients as slow-release nitrogen.
  • Phosphorous will only be allowed in cases where a soil test reveals a specific deficiency in that nutrient.
  • Fines for violations can be up to $500 for a first offense or $1,000 for a second offense. For egregious violators, the state Department of Environmental Protection can seek an additional civil penalty of $1,000.

Move from Philadelphia Scheduled for GlaxoSmithKline

Who thought moving from Philadelphia could be such a savvy business move? Pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline is moving its Philadelphia operations to a new facility in South Philadelphia. The company just signed a nearly 16-year lease for the new site and plans on saving $26 million annually by making the move to an old U.S. Navy shipyard. This major relocation will be to a new facility that boasts 205,000 square feet and will also relocate around 1,300 jobs to the new site.

The company looks forward to the move to the new facility, saying the open-space layout will help employees to collaborate better. That and the boost to their bottom line make this relocation seem like the best option for GlaxoSmithKline.

Philadelphians Try to Save the Tastykakes; Company’s Move Bolsters Troubles

From the Facebook group trying to “Save the Tastykakes” to Causes.com’s “Save Tastykake” page, many Philadelphians are in an uproar over the Philadelphia snack cake icon struggling to survive into today’s times…and economy.

Tastykake is a household name in the Northeast, though if you travel a few states over, most will have no idea what you’re talking about. For those who do know, Tastykake produces the delicious little delights including Krimpets, Juniors and Kandy Kakes and 200+ more confections. However, the 97-year-old company has been struggling of late, every since moving within Philadelphia – specifically from Hunting Park to the Navy Yard. With the move came increased operations costs amid a serious economic downturn. The company currently has $100 million in debt; do you think that the Tastykakes can be saved?

Temple Students on the Move from On-Campus Community

Many students of Temple University might be looking for Philadelphia movers soon, as rent rates have raised and students are feeling slighted. Though Temple used to be primarily a commuter school, real estate development companies have been building, buying and restoring off-campus housing catering to students. However, the profits these companies are seeing from what it costs to purchase this housing compared to what they’re charging budget-conscious students and the impact the growth has had on the community is what has some people up in arms.

Non-students, or families that live in these off-campus communities, are less than pleased with all the new development, as it has caused their cost of living to rise as well. These contractors and realtors are coming under fire for the higher rents for students as well as the hike in cost of living for locals.

Is there a solution to this problem for Temple students and local residents living in these communities? Or is the only real solution to pick up and move from Philadelphia’s Temple University off-campus housing?
