Trenton NJ, Assembly Republicans are walking to their talk of cutting the corporate business tax to make the state more business friendly. Assemblymen Christopher DePhillips and John DiMaio are introducing a bill (A3754) with Assemblywoman Serena DiMaso that would gradually cut the rate to a flat 2.5 percent.
“The reason we need a tax incentive program to attract businesses is because taxes are too high,” said DePhillips (R-Bergen). “The simple answer is to lower the rate to a point that makes New Jersey more attractive financially than other states.”

Ridgewood NJ, Watch and listen to Ridgewood Village Manager Heather Mailander’s publicly televised, 4 1/2 minute diatribe concerning the proposed purchase and installation of dog waste (poopie) bag dispensers in selected Village parks. Clearly this Village employee (yes an employee; not an elected official) does not like dogs and made every attempt to poo-poo the implementation of a simple program that many nearby municipalities have fully embraced. Thankfully, the Village Council did not heed her advice and will continue their discussion of poopie bag dispenser installations at a later date.
