Page 6 THE VILLADOM TIMES IV • August 8, 2012 TO THE RESIDENTS OF MAHWAH THE MAYOR SAYS THAT SERVICES WON’T BE AFFECTED IF MAHWAH PRIVATIZES THE RECYCLING. Here is how Mayor Laforet’s plan will affect you: • Grass Bag Collection WILL be eliminated next year As per the Mayor • Township Administrator, Brian Campion states the reduction in workforce “will require the Township to outsource the snow removal”. At what cost? • Keith Hallissey, Public Works Director stated at the July 5th Council meeting that leaf collection could be affected. By how much?! • 3 of 4 employees proposed for layoff are volunteer firemen. Will this affect emergency service? • Even though they were hired as full-time permanent employees, the Mayor keeps insisting these employees are only temporary. Do you think that is what their families call them? Available staff will be reduced for: Mahwah Day, Senior Picnic, Town parades, storm clean ups, floods, brush removal, etc …. As citizens, you get all these changes … to save less than $2.00 a month in taxes. Please attend the Town Council Meeting August 9, 2012 at 8pm Township of Mahwah • Municipal Offices • 475 Corporate Drive From your friends at the Mahwah Department of Public Works LET YOUR OPINION BE HEARD!
