We revealed on Sunday that the budget includes a 1.96% tax increase, which will mean an average property tax increase of $82 for a home assessed at $397,000. That tax hike is below the 2% state cap and is being credited, at least in part, to the $1 million in revenue from the sale of the former Maplewood Village post office.
The budget will also include a proposed 2% salary increase for the Township Committee, bringing each of their annual stipends to $4,080.
See more on the budget HERE.
Also on tap at tonight's meeting is discussion of the pool fees for 2016 and a proposal for providing free feminine hygiene products in public buildings.
See the full agenda HERE.
You can also always speak up at the two public comment portions of the meeting. So show up, ask a question, give them a piece of your mind or just a pat on the back.
Remember, they work for you
