Thursday: Marlboro Town Council Canceled

The public budget hearing will take place on May 2.

Tonight's Marlboro Town Council meeting has been canceled, and the public budget hearing has been moved to May 2 at 7 p.m.

The average Marlboro Township homeowner will see a 4.6% increase from last year's taxes, according to the 2013 budget.

Business Administrator Jon Capp said township spending is within the 2 percent tax levy, but state law allows municipalities to raise money for state mandated programs and emergency appropriations outside of the tax cap.
