This panel "Tools for Citizens to Control Property Taxes & Cut Government Waste" was from the South Jersey Call to Service Summit on March 16th at Stockton College. Citizens learned about proposals to cut waste that they can introduce that can bring savings and help their communities avoid service cuts. Panelists included Harry Pozycki, Citizens' Campaign Chair, Deb DiLorenzo, President & CEO of the Chamber of Commerce of Southern New Jersey, and Christopher Daggett, former DEP Commissioner and gubernatorial candidate. The event was part of the Jersey Call to Service, a nonpartisan effort to inspire 5,000 New Jersey citizens to participate in the leadership of their communities and build a culture of service and frugality.
Biz4NJ.com applauds this movement. We'd also like to draw your attention to the need to re-direct our shopping dollars to our communities, thereby INCREASING RESOURCES. So "Shop Your Neighborhood." The savings achieved at big box stores are ephemeral because they dont take into account time spent, interest cost on storing unused purchases and most of all the cost to our communities.
