1. Hoboken University Hospital debuts remodeled infusion center (roi-nj.com) — Hoboken University Hospital has doubled the size of its infusion center, adding more chairs, upgraded technology, and expanded hours to five days a week so local patients can get chemotherapy and other treatments closer to home. With additional specialized nurses and improved patient spaces, the hospital says it can now serve more cancer and infusion patients from Hoboken and nearby communities like Bayonne and Secaucus.
2. Hoboken School Enrollment Rises As Classes Start Next Week: See Calendar (patch.com) — Hoboken families can expect nearly 4,000 students in the public schools when classes resume Tuesday, reflecting a roughly 50 percent enrollment jump since 2015–2016.

3. Hoboken to institute 'Outdoor Amplified Sound Permits' for waterfront businesses (hudsoncountyview.com) — Hoboken officials have approved a new Outdoor Amplified Sound Permit system that will limit loud music and other amplified noise from uptown waterfront businesses like Pier 13, aiming to protect nearby residents' quality of life. The ordinance sets fees, time limits, and enforcement tools for police, while council members, residents, and Pier 13's attorney debate fairness, business impacts, and the risk of legal challenges.
4. Hoboken Council Votes 6-3 to Eliminate Public Caucus Meetings (tapinto.net) — Hoboken's City Council has voted 6–3 to eliminate public caucus meetings, ending a separate forum where members and residents could hear detailed discussion before regular sessions.
