    At the Hopewell Townshipbudget meeting on Feb. 24, effortswere concentrated on reducingspending to alleviate the impactof a projected tax increase. Thetax increase is due to heightenedpension costs, refinanced debtservice, a $900,000 hit in townshiprevenue and a large expenditureon snow removal and manage-

    ment, officials said.The results of ridding the

    township of several expenditureswill be seen in the form of a

    three-quarter of a cent decreasein the estimated tax rate. The ratewill be brought to 35.3 cents per$100 of assessed property valuefrom 35.9 cents.

    The township committee plansto spend $300,000 of townshipmoney toward the state-requiredaffordable housing trust fund.The roughly $400,000 budget com-ponent has been a central topic ofdiscussion in recent budget meet-ings.

    The money to cover the ex-pense will be sourced from a $12million surplus. While the sur-plus may seem like a dispensable

    amount, Hopewell TownshipChief Financial Officer ElaineCruickshank-Borges advised thecommittee to use the fund infre-quently. By July, the fund will lose$9 million to pay off townshipbills.

    Several projects that had beenin the works for the town andwere discussed at the last meetinghave been postponed or cancelledto manage the tax increase. Theseprojects include a sewer pump

    station improvement for $30,000at Brandon Farms and a $170,000

    Township looks to spend less toreduce impact of higher taxes

    ing career at Sayre Junior HighSchool. Lang then taught Latin inthe Pennsbury School District inBucks County, then French andSpanish in the New Jersey townsof Haddonfield and Millburn, re-spectively. Lang was chosen as aFulbright exchange teacher dur-

    ing his time in Haddonfield,spending a year in Bristol, Eng-land, teaching French. Lang ex-panded his international teach-ing repertoire as an exchangeteacher in Bordeaux, France.

    In 1983, Lang began hisHopewell career as the world lan-guages supervisor. In that posi-tion, he founded the French Ex-change Program, which still ex-ists. He then served as the viceprincipal of Hopewell Valley Cen-tral High School. Lang became di-

    rector of human resources in2002, in charge of staff recruit-ment and support services. In2007, he landed in his final rolewith the district as assistant su-perintendent. A district releasestates that, as assistant superin-tendent, he combined his humanresource duties with his newrole.

    During his time in HopewellValley and through his variouspositions, Richard Lang hashelped to establish a culture ofhigh expectations among our stu-dents and staff, SuperintendentThomas Smith said. As an indi-vidual, he leads by example, hold-ing himself to a high ethical andmoral standard which is demon-strated each time he interactswith staff and our school commu-nity. He has left a lasting mark on

    the district.A resident of Doylestown, Pa.,

    with his wife Terry, Lang intendsto travel and most likely continueto do some type of work. He islooking forward to being the cre-ator of his own schedule. Em-ployed since age 14, Lang saidthere is a sense of freedom to re-tirement; Ill be completely incontrol.

    Although he seems excited toexperience a newfound sense offreedom, Lang expressed his feel-

    ings about the place he is leavingafter so many years.

    I really believe in terms ofcompassion, work ethic and pridethat Hopewell Valley is an ex-traordinary place, he said. I re-ally believe this district is spe-cial.

    Langs retirement will becomeeffective on June 30.

    or the past few years, Gov.

    Christie has been bold and

    straightforward with his push

    for reform, tax cuts and hope during

    his annual state budget address.

    Last week, he was anything but.

    Instead of painting a rosy picture of

    a bright future for New Jersey,

    Christie stuck to reality and seemed

    to cast a potential dark cloud. If we

    dont do something about pensions

    soon, well all be paying for it dearly

    later, is what he said.

    Christies proposed $34.4 billion

    budget includes a full payment of $2.25

    billion for state workers pensions. But

    he said that changes he made to thepension plan a few years ago arent

    doing enough, and said that too much

    of New Jerseys spending goes toward

    what he called entitlements, a

    phrase his opponents, and union lead-

    ers, obviously took exception to.

    With our long-term obligations

    only set to increase in the coming

    years, the problem will not go away by

    itself, he said. We cannot wish it

    away. We cannot make it go away by

    magic. What we must do is what we

    were sent here to do by the people tolead and to act decisively again.

    Democrats responded by saying that

    the pension reforms are working just

    fine, and time will prove that every-

    thing is A-OK.

    Were not so sure that the system

    will simply fix itself, but we also dont

    necessarily agree with Christie that

    more major changes are needed right

    now.

    What we do agree with is that more

    spending cuts need to be made some-

    where. The state needs to get out of

    debt or at least move closer back to

    even and it needs to do so soon.

    Local county governments, municipal-

    ities and school districts need to share

    more services to cut spending without

    cutting quality of services and the

    state needs to provide these entities

    with the ability to do so.So what to do? Who really knows?

    While making more major changes

    might be the answer, sitting back and

    doing nothing isnt either.

    in our opinion

    Mixed messages from theGov.What are weto think of Christies budget address?

    Your thoughts

    What are your thoughts on Christiesannual budget address? Do you agreethat more changes are needed to thestates pension plan? Share your thoughtson this, and other topics, through a letterto the editor.

    The following are reported fromthe Hopewell Township Police Depart-

    ment.

    On Feb. 10, at approximately 5 p.m., anofficer charged a 62-year-old male with cre-ating a false public alarm after repeatedlycalling 911 for non- emergencies after beingwarned not to do so. The case will be heardin municipal court.

    While on patrol on Feb. 15, at approxi-mately 3:30 p.m., an officer observed a 1999Pontiac being operated on Route 31 with-out headlights on during a snowstorm.The vehicle also lacked a front license plate

    as required by law. The officer stopped thevehicle and while he was speaking with thedriver, a 21-year-old male of Clover Hill Cir-cle, Ewing, he detected the odor of mari-

    juana emanating from the vehicle. Furtherinvestigation revealed that the male was in

    possession of a small amount of marijua-na and a glass pipe used to smoke marijua-

    na. The suspect was arrested and trans-ported to police headquarters where hewas processed and released. He wascharged with failure to use his headlightswith wipers activated, failure to have afront license plate and possession of mari-

    juana and drug paraphernalia. His case isscheduled for a hearing in municipalcourt.

    On Feb. 17 at approximately 2 p.m., Det.Frank Tulko went to the Burlington Coun-ty Jail to interview a suspect in a burglaryand two separate thefts that occurred in

    January. The suspect was believed to be in-volved in the burglary and theft of a motorvehicle from the Indian Village section ofthe township and the theft of an employeetip jar from the Starbucks Coffee on DenowRoad. Tulko, in a cooperative effort with

    the Princeton Township Police, identified a28-year-old male from Princeton Junction

    as the suspect in both incidents. Tulko metwith the suspect, and based on the inter-view, he was able to recover several of theitems that were previously stolen at apawnshop in Trenton. The suspect, whowas already in custody on other chargesfrom Burlington County, was charged withburglary and two counts of theft. His casewill be forwarded to the Mercer CountyProsecutors Office.

    On Feb. 18, at approximately 1 p.m. Offi-cer Robert Sparano was detailed to a resi-dence on Woosamonsa Road for a reported

    activation of a burglar alarm. Upon arriv-ing at the house, Sparano and Officer Vin-cent Amabile found the front door of theresidence had been forced opened and sev-eral items were stolen. Sparano and Det.Christopher Vaccarino are investigating.
