Ronald S. Dancer, Plumsted mayor
Plumsted Township Committeemen Jack Trotta, Dave Leutwyler and Steve Reed are supporters of the 2010 no-tax-increase municipal budget, a budget that reduced spending by $663,000 from the previous year due to the recessionary economy declining revenues and less state aid. With record-setting unemployment and home foreclosure rates, taxpayers need fiscal conservatives like Mr. Trotta, Mr. Leutwyler and Mr. Reed.
Plumsted’s Farm and Woodland Preservation Program, with more than 40 farms and 3,000 acres protected from future development, is under the leadership of Mr. Trotta, who is committed to keeping Plumsted rural and affordable.
Maintaining Plumsted’s ranking as one of the safest communities with one of the lowest crime rates is a public safety priority, as well as having a Police Department that is now due to receive national recognition from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA). With the support of Committeemen Trotta, Leutwyler and Reed, Plumsted’s Police Department has successfully advanced to comply with the 112 standards that represent the best practices in law enforcement. Earlier this month, Plumsted’s Police Department had a two day on-site inspection and assessment as part of the accreditation process through the N.J. Law Enforcement Commission, which is administered by the N.J. State Association of Chiefs of Police, and is being recommended to become just the 40th police department in the state and the second in Ocean County to be state-accredited and nationally recognized by CALEA.
Thank you for your consideration of supporting the election of Committeemen Trotta, Leutwyler and Reed to Plumsted’s Township Committee.
Ronald S. Dancer
