At first glance, bipartisan Bill S458, sponsored by Senator Bob Smith (D) and Senator Joseph Kyrillos, Jr. (R), which proposes the consolidation of essential municipal functions by county government, seems like a good idea and a great cost cutting measure for local governments - wrong.  Though the saying goes “the devil is in the details”, in this particular case, “the devil is in the lack of details”.

Dear Fellow Resident,

As Edgewater enters its 115th year of incorporation and I begin my seventh year as Mayor, I would like to thank you for your support and bring you up to date on what the Council and I have accomplished.

Dear Friends,

Like most of our nation, Edgewater faced many challenges during 2009.  The trickle-down effects of our weak economy, coupled with proposed changes in state and federal legislations left Edgewater and other towns with funding uncertainties.

Nevertheless, with difficult challenges came opportunities and working collectively with my Democratic council colleagues, Edgewater has prevailed.  Municipal taxes are stable; all town services remain secure and the Borough still enjoys an AA3 Bond Rating.

The residences of Edgewater deserve a fiscally responsible and environmentally conscience government. While 2010 will be just as challenging as 2009, the Edgewater Democratic council members will work hard and continue to strive to achieve the common goals of Edgewater taxpayers.
