Enclosed is the final tax bill for the last quarter of our fiscal year (July 1, 2008 to June
30, 2009). As you can see, there has been a decrease in the tax rate from 91 cents per $100 of
assessed valuation to 89 cents resulting in a reduction of the amount of taxes due for this fiscal
year.
We wish that we could have brought this news to you sooner but many new laws and
regulations of the State of New Jersey delayed the budget until now. Regardless of the
reasons for delay, we are glad to announce this tax decrease and thank the Township’s Finance
Department, as well all of the Township employees, in helping make a decrease a reality.
Please be aware that the grace period for payment of taxes has been extended to May
14, 2009.
Your prompt payment is a vital part of our budget calculations and everyone’s
continued contributions helped make a decrease possible. Our tax collection rate was over 99
percent last year and was one of the best in the State so we really do appreciate the sacrifices
that all of you are making.
As always, if you have any questions or comments you can reach us at:
Mayor Ball email jball@ewingtwp.com or cell phone 372-8561.
Council President Wollert email kwollert@ewingtwp.com or cell phone 532-4461.
Respectively yours,
