Membership Committee Report by Grace Marchena,
several new members applications have been received, positive feedback
from several others. New Business
Questions were asked and answered on the following: Sewer rates for businesses. Mayor Lavan assured the membership that the Township Committee has moved forward with their plans to reduce the operating expenses for the Sewer Department which will eventually create a reduction in fees for the taxpayer. Water flow problems with the BRSA are being resolved. The township has purchased their own equipment to clean and maintain the sanitary and storm water sewer lines. The building that formally housed the Sewer Dept is on the market for sale or lease as well as the former Buildings Dept. building on Highway 35. Other cost saving measures are being addressed as quickly as possible. 2009 Realty Appraisals. How the new appraisals
will affect taxes has not yet been determined, as rate has not been set.
Property owners are encouraged to make appointments with the appraiser
to discuss their assessments. Recycling & Refuse. The township is considering accepting a bid from one hauler who will pick up trash and recycling for the entire town including businesses. The township will be asking for volunteers from the business community to offer input as to needs and concerns that should be included in any bid proposal and contract negotiations. Fees would now be included with taxes. An outside vendor picking up recycling would alleviate the burden of the Public Works Department who would be free to offer other services to the community. HBOA Meeting Place. A question was raised as to
the possibility of having meetings held at a more centrally located
venue. The Mayor offered to find out if the Cullen Center was available.
