Happy Monday! Everyone wants a piece of New York’s marijuana tax revenue, pols back small businesses slammed by sign violations, and Councilmember Mark Treyger wins support for poll site translators.

Finally, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka says he doesn’t want his city to be “another Brooklyn,” and we recommend the best classic restaurants in New York City.
