A quote from today's APP regarding taxes in Red Bank.
"That's great, it's phenomenal that we're bringing in ratables," said
Tim Blankley of South Street. "The budget is $8.1 million. Let's get
that down."
What's wrong with this picture? Red Bank had a 2000 Census population
of approximately 12,000, roughly 75% of AP's. Yet the budget for Red
Bank is only 25% of AP's. Go to City Hall and get a copy of the payroll
for city employees. You will be surprised. How many city vehicles do we
have? I heard over 75 (unsure if that includes police and fire). We are
paying insurance on all of them. Spending is out of hand. Imagine if we
really had to fnd our own schools? We'd really be in trouble. We are
headed for disaster if spending is not cut. And we keep on bonding for
new expenditures. No one is watching the piggy bank. Give them more
rateables and they will simply spend more of your money. What
percentage of city employees are city residents?
