Township Manager's 2008 Budget Message:

Imagine that tomorrow morning someone knocked on the door of your home to inform you that, effective immediately, your household was not allowed to spend in 2008 more than 3 1/2% more than what you spent in 2007 – and this despite the fact that your gasoline and heating costs are up over 30%, electricity up over 20%, food costs up over 15%, insurance costs up over 10%, mortgage costs up, etc. Also, even if you received a bonus or salary increase at work, or had savings you could dip into, it didn’t matter – you must still keep your spending at no more than 3 1/2% above the previous year.
