The following Letter to the Editor appeared in the Bucks County Courier Times yesterday from Greg Caiola.
First, I want to thank the BCCT for the editor's note clarifying my comments regarding the Patterson Farm, emphasizing that it will remain a working farm. Second, it is essential that I inject some badly needed facts into the discussion focusing on my record as an Ewing Towhsip, NJ councilman.I didn't see the original letter from Andy Raffle that Greg is reponding to, so I am unable to offer further background on it.
When I took office in 1995, the municipal tax rate was $.33, or $412 for a home assessed at the township avergage of $125,000. Upon leaving office in January of 2000, the municipal rate was $39, or $475 per household. This computes to a difference of $63 over five years of $13 per year!
With respect to Andy Raffle's "slice of Ewing" comment - that equates to approximately seven pizzas. This data is supported in the 2001 audit prepared by the NJ Department of Treasury, Division of Local Government Services. The audit also reveals that Ewing's tax rate was one of the lowest in Mercer County and considerably lower than the NJ state average.
Furthermore, during my second term, I successfully led the fight to dissolve a taxing fire district. This effort lowered the taxes for nearly 4,000 households that had been paying an additional $56 annually and receiving no added services or benefits. Additionally, a partial list of improvements in municipal services during my tenure included forming a redevelopment agency to address ratable issues, establishing and staffing an animal shelter, alleviating a serious flooding problem along the Shabakunk Creek that saved residents, businesses and the township hundreds of thousands of dollars, and increasing sanitation services to include condominiums.
This is a portion of my public service record, a record of which I am extremely proud.
