In response to the letter by Molly Hartin Dec 8, 2021.
As the mayor attempts to impress residents of his cost saving abilities (in an election year) the actions regarding the Mississippi dump winter closure that effect the permanent residents is a true reflection of his leadership These residents pay taxes as do residents is other pockets of the township. Slashing of the few services provided by the township only contributes to the funding of more preferred items on their list During the 2021 budget deliberations the mayor approved a donation of $1000 to the food bank.Funding that would benefit many in the township.
With the same pen approved a $4000 expenditure for a township Christmas party an event that only a select few would benefit from.
It seems that in a landscape of tough financial decisions items of importance to the mayor are never sacrificed This is only one more example of how the leadership expects ratepayers to fund their entitlements.
