With all the campaign rhetoric that has been generated this year, I feel it necessary to speak out and voice my support for the Middlesex County Board of Chosen Freeholders, and, in particular, Freeholder Director David B. Crabiel.
Under the leadership of Director Crabiel, the freeholders have been primarily responsible for a large body of positive achievements that directly affect the quality of life for all county residents.
For example, our county college is nationally recognized for its excellence, we have the best county park system in our state, and our county has preserved thousands of acres of open space. Our freeholders have consistently held the line on taxes and have successfully reduced the county’s equalized tax rate for 11 straight years.
I have served as a member of the Middlesex County Board of Ethics for more than 20 years, and during that time I have had the privilege of working closely with all the freeholders, including Director Crabiel. I have found them to be consistently hard-working, dedicated, honest and committed public servants who have worked tirelessly for the best interests of all Middlesex County residents. They have earned and deserve our full support.
