SCHULTZ AND SONS ~001 541-2526  ~ Fax: (732) 541-8925 .3 Cook, a nue ~09~x~h.~ OF Carteret, New Je~ 07~8 OFFICE 0F ~YO~ October 3, 20~ VETO OF ORDINANCE # 02-20. I have decided to veto this Ordinance for a number of reasons. When Councilman Reiman first brought it to our attention I felt that maybe they should be iDcreased since they are in fact a bit low as compared to the surroumding towns. Having said that I also believe that there is a time and a place for eve.rythlng and this is not the time. Since the devastating attack on September 11, 200Lear economy has taken a terrible blow. Health insurance has gone up, commercial insurance has gone through the roof and sadly our own taxes in town have skyroeketed. The amount of money that will be brought iu is mi~timal and as a governing body we need to be not only fiscafly prudent, we need to show compassion whco we eau, and do whatever we can aX our level to bolster the economy. This fee increase will only hurt the business owners and at the very least the increases wmlid be passed on to the consumer. I hope the Council will take the time to recoasMer the fee adjustment and allow the veto to stand. ~y~or jnmesCA.
