To the Editor:
Anne Neumann and her family are established residents of Princeton, and Anne and her daughter attended Princeton schools. Anne’s contributions to Princeton municipal affairs and her plans for a livable Princeton have earned my support.
Anne has pledged to help neighborhoods in Princeton retain their character at a time when many residents are concerned with insensitive development and overdevelopment. The tax burden of new development brings will affect all Princetonians. But Anne is well aware that some neighborhoods will bear the burden of new development in terms of density and traffic. Anne will, therefore, call for a delay on all new development near AvalonBay until AvalonBay’s effects on roads, drainage, sewers, and our school population are clear.
Anne is a champion of the town of Princeton, host to one of the nation’s most prestigious, well-endowed, and powerful universities, which has been unwilling to pay what Anne and many Princeton residents believe reflects its fair share of the financial burdens it imposes on us. Anne is knowledgeable and unafraid to take on the contentious issues of town and gown, including a Council member and Mayor with ties to Princeton University.
Please see Anne’s creative ideas for preserving Princeton’s character and fostering an environment friendly to local residents and taxpayers—not shoppers who descend from tour buses—on her website www.anneneumannforcouncil.weebly.com. Please join me in voting for Anne Neumann!
