A little rain was not enough to
keep a nice-sized crowd away
from a homecoming for an Iraq
veteran.
Theres a big difference be-
tween a rainstorm and a sand-
storm, which is why friends, fam-
ily and members of the Yellow
Ribbon Club waited outside of
Private First Class David Kings
house last week to welcome the
20-year-old veteran home from
Fort Bragg.
As King arrived home from a
dinner organized by his mother
and father, about 30 well-wishers
ringed his familys driveway,
holding American flags and
cheering for the young veteran as
he was led back to his house by
the Evesham Township Fire De-
partment, EMS and a lone War-
rior Rider leading the way on his
motorcycle.
As the group got word that he
was a block away, the nearby fire

Mayor Randy Brown says there
are some big changes in store for
the township in 2012.
The township will kick off the
new year with something that has
never been done before in the his-
tory of Evesham Township.
The members of the council
will select a replacement for Joe
Howarth, the departing deputy
mayor, who will take a seat on the
Burlington County Freeholder
Board.
Its the first time the township
has made such a decision since
switching to a partisan election
format in 2010.
The council will receive a list of
approved replacements from the
Evesham Republican Municipal
Committee 15 days after Howarth
officially submits his resignation
to the council.
They will then submit a list of
three candidates from which the
council will choose one to fill
Howarths empty seat.
After the council receives a list
of potential replacements, Brown
said they have 15 days to accept a
replacement.
Staying on the political front,
the 2012 general elections in No-
vember will see Councilman Kurt
Crofts seat expiring. Whoever re-
places Howarth will also see his
or her seat expire in 2012, Brown
said.
The townships new insurance-
payment plan for Evesham em-
ployees began just a few days ago
on Jan. 1.
In 2011, the council approved a
measure that would require all
2012 will
bring big
changes
Evesham Township will see a
political first when departing
deputy mayors council seat is filled

truck and ambulance cranked up
their sirens in appreciation and
the flag wavers let up a cheer as
his father pulled into the drive-
way and King returned home.
The veteran had actually re-
turned to Evesham Township on
Friday, Dec. 23, just in time for
Christmas. Yet the YRC still want-
ed to give him a surprise heros
welcome, Silver said.
His brother, Kevin King, 21,
waved a flag and said it was a
great time for his brother to re-
turn to the township.
Its tough around Christmas,
and it means a lot that people
have come out to support him
coming back, Kevin said. He
left for Fort Bragg in February for
basic training. He came home
once in June and hes here for
about a week before going back
out around Jan. 2. Its great to
have him home, though.
Stationed in Baghdad, Iraq,
Kings company was one of the
last to leave the country. The 2010
Cherokee High School graduate
hugged his family and friends,
overwhelmed by the show of sup-
port. Yellow Ribbon Club coordi-
nator Dave Silver led him over to
several members of the Evesham
Township Fire Department, who
shook the veterans hand and
thanked him for his service to the
country. He then led King to the
front of his familys home and
thanked the group for coming out
to support the veteran.
Evesham Township Council-
men Kurt Croft and Steve Zeuli of-
fered him a proclamation for his
service and dedication to his
country.
Thank you to everyone for
everything. Youre the reason I
fight, King said to the crowd as it
let up a cheer.
King said his time in Baghdad
was devoted mostly to munitions,
rockets, mortars, and artillery
missions. Throw in a few house
breaches, he said, and that was
his time in Baghdad.
Its amazing. I havent seen
many of these people for 10
months, he said.
Wendy and Kevin King, Davids
mother and father, were over-
whelmed with the support and
dedication from the Yellow Rib-
bon Club, the Warrior Riders and
the police and fire units that
made their sons homecoming a
special one.
Weve been involved with the
Yellow Ribbon Club for a while
now, and this was special, Kevin
King said as the party for his son
went into the house. We got him
home in time for Christmas.

King awarded
proclamation for service
township employees to pay 30 per-
cent toward their health-insur-
ance premium costs, which will
save the township several hun-
dred thousand dollars moving for-
ward, Brown said.
In addition to the new premi-
um-cost initiative, one of the last
pieces of business the township
approved in 2011 was to unsub-
scribe from the states health in-
surance plan.
The township will move to a
partially self-insured program,
which will see it take all of the
money it currently pays for
health-insurance premiums, and
put it into a large employee pool.
The township will hire a third-
party company to manage the
pool of insurance premiums,
Township Administrator Tom Cz-
erniecki said.
The way the program would
work, Czerniecki said, is that an
employee would put in a claim for
a health benefit, and it would be
taken out of the employee pool.
The township would cover the
insurance-premium costs until
the employee reaches a certain
threshold.
Then the insurance policy
would begin for the employee.
The earliest this could be insti-
tuted is March 1, Brown said.
It will bring us immediate sav-
ings. I dont want to put a dollar
amount on it, but it will be imme-
diate savings. We wont have a
solid idea until the extent of the
savings until the latter half of
2012, he said. The way the met-
rics work on it, we believe there
will be significant savings,
though.
Even with Howarths depar-
ture the councilman typically
put open space at the top of his
priority list the township will
continue to pursue open-space ac-
quisitions for passive and active
open-space purposes.
From the standpoint of
sports, the continuing improve-
ment of active and passive recre-
ation in town will be a big priori-
ty. I know were working with the
Pinelands right now to acquire
another 40 to 50 acres in the
southern end, Brown said.
Well also be focusing on devel-
oping the Morrison Farm and
Johnson Farm tracts, possibly de-
veloping them for active recre-
ation. That will be a big thing for
us this year; well be voting on
that in February most likely.
Of course, creating and main-
taining shared-service opportuni-
ties with surrounding municipal-
ities will continue in 2012, Brown
said.
There are new mayors in Med-
ford Township, Winslow Town-
ship and Cherry Hill, Brown said,
so its necessary to cultivate some
new relationships.
Well continue with mergers,
consolidations and shared servic-
es. Our goal for 2012 is to open up
communications between sur-
rounding municipalities, he
said. All of a sudden, I have be-
come the veteran here, Im going
into year six as mayor and all of a
sudden Im the veteran official in
the area.
The township will continue to
focus on improving its roadway
systems and capital projects in
2012, Brown said.
Unfortunately, the capital budg-
et is tied heavily into how much
funding is spent on snow re-
moval.
If the township has a light win-
ter snow-wise, Brown said Eve-
sham would look to improve
township sidewalks, walkways
and township-owned roads that
branch off Routes 70 and 73.
These roads, Brown said, have
suffered through increased traffic
rates the past few years, while
Routes 70 and 73 were being
worked on.
I would put that near the top
of my list for 2012 improve-
ments in the capital projects in
the township. Youve already seen
with some of the grants weve
gotten where weve improved the
sidewalks around the local
schools. That program was a
huge hit. I want to continue to
look down that path and continue
to improve the safety going to and
from school and parents bringing
kids to school. Lets hope we get a
warm winter and save a few
bucks that we can put toward
that, Brown said.
The township will also see the
surveys that were sent out to ran-
dom residents return in the New
Year. The information culled from
these surveys will go toward im-
proved services in Evesham
neighborhoods, Brown said.

Faced with operating subsidies
at Buttonwood Hospital that are
expected to exceed $4.5 million in
2012, Burlington County freehold-
ers continue to explore the future
options for the long-term care fa-
cility, and formally released a con-
sultants report that evaluated the
environmental, logistical and eco-
nomic impacts of a potential sale.
Freeholder Director Bruce
Garganio said the report pre-
pared by T and M Associates of
Moorestown would be made im-
mediately available to the public
upon request. The board also set
two hearing dates to solicit pubic
comment on the report, and on
the possible sale, lease or other
options for Buttonwood.
Its all too apparent that the
cost of operating Buttonwood
will weigh heavier and heavier on
taxpayers over the coming years,
Garganio said. But again, as I in-
dicated seven weeks ago, we in-
tend to ensure that, no matter
what we decide, that patient care
remains at the highest quality. At
the same time, we are giving the
public every opportunity to offer
input on the future of the facili-
ty.
The first public hearing will be
Tuesday, Jan. 31, at Burlington
County College in Pemberton,
which is directly across the road
from Buttonwood. The second
hearing is scheduled for Tuesday,
Feb. 14, in the freeholder board
room, county administration
building, 49 Rancocas Road,
Mount Holly.
Both hearings are set for 6 p.m.
Buttonwood has operated at a
loss for at least the last decade.
Last month, freeholders received
a financial report from NW Fi-
nancial Group of Trenton indi-
cated that the hospital would con-
tinue to face revenue reductions
and higher expenses, generating
an operating loss between $3 mil-
lion and $4 million in 2011, to be
borne by taxpayers.
The report projected this num-
ber to exceed $4.5 million in 2012,
and to continue increasing in fu-
ture years.
The most recent study pre-
pared by T and M Associates con-
cluded that the advantages of sell-
ing the facility would outweigh
the disadvantages, and stated that
there were no identifiable envi-
ronmental impediments to a
sale. It also projected that a sale
would generate upward of $16
million, and that Pemberton
Township and the county would
gain a new and significant tax
ratable if the facility were taken
over by a private operator.
Freeholders have entered into
a shared services agreement with
the Burlington County Bridge
Commission for assistance in ex-
ploring the future options out-
lined in a recently-completed fi-
nancial report. T and M Associ-
ates was engaged by the commis-
sion to prepare an analysis.
Gathering data and input
from the public are critical to our
decision-making process, said
Garganio.
Buttonwood has 170 long-term
care beds and a 30-bed psychiatric
hospital, and a staff of 319.

W
hat is ahead for your town
in 2012? In this weeks edi-
tion, we ask local leaders
for their thoughts.
Its not hard to spot the issues that
transcend municipal and school dis-
trict boundaries. Topping the list, as
always, is money. Especially since the
economy slowed down, its become
even more difficult to balance govern-
ment services with taxpayer burden.
So how does this play out in 2012?
Well, it wont get any easier. But the
new normal Gov. Christie talked
about last year also has led to a num-
ber of positive changes.
Looking for opportunities to share
services between municipalities and
school districts is now standard oper-
ating procedure in many places. Weve
seen municipal courts merge, for ex-
ample, and towns partnering on such
services as trash collection.
This trend no doubt will continue
probably until New Jersey figures out
a way to get things done without hav-
ing to have more than 550 municipali-
ties and more than 600 school dis-
tricts obscene numbers.
Another trend that is likely to con-
tinue into 2012 and beyond is the effort
to find new sources of revenue. Selling
advertising on public buildings, for ex-
ample, is an idea many governments
have implemented or are at least look-
ing at implementing.
Wed like to see additional emphasis
placed on recruiting volunteers. Many
towns have volunteer firefighters, and
volunteers who serve on various com-
mittees and commissions.
Are there ways to tap into this
wealth of knowledge and talent in-
stead of hiring consultants and advis-
ers?
So expect 2012s core issues to look a
lot like 2011s. Its all about the money.
How can we save it? How can we find
more of it? Those are the big ques-
tions again this year.
More of the same in 2012?
Finding new ways to cut budgets and raise money again a top priority
New year, same issues
We think 2012 will look a lot like 2011
when it comes to the No. 1 issue in
New Jersey: Money. How do we save
more of it? How do we find more of
it?

Should a racist be in N.J.
Hall of fame? Sometimes, yeah
Occasionally, its annoying to live with
history. But we do.
A state assemblyman is asking the New
Jersey Hall of Fame to withdraw the car-
toonist Thomas Nast from its list of nomi-
nees, according to NJ.coms Statehouse Bu-
reau.
Nast, who lived in Morristown for many
years, is considered the Father of the
American Cartoon, and may be just about
the most important political cartoonist in
American history.
But he also drew some anti-Irish, and
anti-Catholic illustrations. And thats not
just a matter of interpretation. Theyre
bad.

Should we pay
lifeguards unemployment?
Should we pay Jersey Shore workers un-
employment during the off season?
Lifeguards, badge checkers, police offi-
cers and public works employees they
work all summer at the beach, then often
file for unemployment when the weather
turns cold. Good for them, but bad for the
townships that pay their unemployment.
Thats why the mayors of Cape May
Point and Cape May City are asking the
state to yank unemployment insurance for
the seasonal workers, according to
NJ.coms Statehouse bureau.
Barry Lank
Want to open a
supermarket in Camden?
The city of Camden continues its never-
ending struggle to get a second supermar-
ket, according to a report in the Philadel-
phia Inquirer. Most of the city only has
small, expensive stores that often do not
carry fresh food, and occasionally attract
drug dealers. Thats why Camden has
largely been designated as a food desert
by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for
the distance most residents must trudge to
access a supermarket the only one in
town being the Pathmark on Mount
Ephraim Avenue.

Another Deck the Paws and
Help a Collie animal shelter
drive has come and gone. And,
again this year, there are a lot of
happy animals, thanks to your
generous donations. We had
more, far more, probably three
times more, drop spots this year
than in the previous seven years
we have been conducting this
drive. To all of you who donated
your office and home space to col-
lect and temporarily store bags of
food and other supplies, we thank
you. The amount of donations
this year was tremendous as well.
Since the shelters and rescue
groups helped with pickups and
some drop spots took donations
directly to shelters themselves I
dont have an exact amount of
supplies collected. But I do know
that, at a minimum, there were al-
most 20 carloads and truckloads
of food, cat litter, bleach, etc., col-
lected. That is quite a haul. A bit
of housekeeping: As I mentioned,
we had way more drop spots this
year than in years past. At times,
this led to some confusion over
collections.
By now, all of the drop spots
should have been visited and
cleaned out. However, if your spot
fell through the cracks and you
still have supplies that need to be
picked up, please email me at
alan@elauwit.com.
I will make sure to get out to
your location right away. Among
those groups sharing in this
years bounty: the Burlington and
Camden County animal shelters,
the Voorhees Animal Orphanage,
the Animal Sanctuary, Almost
Home, NJ Aid for Animals and 4
Paws with a Cause. I know I speak
for all of those groups when I say
that your donations, again this
year, made a world of difference.
And I know that they all are ex-
tremely grateful for your generos-
ity.
Alan Bauer is the general man-
ager of Elauwit Media.
We thank you, and the animals thank you

Military men and women in
Burlington County now may
have another friend waiting
for them at the Burlington Coun-
ty Animal Shelter.
Freeholder Mary Ann OBrien
unveiled the shelters Free Pets
for Vets program, through
which all county veterans may
adopt a dog or cat free of charge.
It is well know that compan-
ion animals can help to reduce
stress, depression and anxiety,
OBrien said. What were doing
is reducing the barriers for
adopting animals for those who,
we believe, will truly appreciate
the companionship.
The typical cost of adopting
from the shelter runs anywhere
from $45 to $100, depending on
whether its a cat or dog, and the
age of the animal. All animals
are neutered or spayed before
being adopted out.
Veterans interested in adopt-
ing will need to fill out an appli-
cation form and show a copy of
their DD-214 or County Veteran
ID Card.
The typical waiting period
runs anywhere from one to
seven days, depending upon the
animal.
All county residents in the
market for a pet should consider
the shelter, OBrien said. Visi-
tors are welcome to walk
through the kennels, and ac-
quaint themselves with our oc-
cupants who are looking for
new homes.
The shelter is located on Pio-
neer Boulevard in the countys
Westampton complex, off Wood-
lane Road. It has hours every day
but Sundays and holidays. The
phone number is (609) 265-5073.
Information about the shelter
and photos and data on pets
available for adoption can be
found on the countys website at
www.co.burlington.nj.us, by click-
ing on the health department
and then animal shelter.
Vets can now adopt pets from Burlington County shelter free of charge

As a way for towns to save dol-
lars and improve their recycling
rates, the county will accept
Christmas trees free of charge for
recycling at the Burlington Coun-
ty Resource Recovery Complex in
Florence and Mansfield Town-
ships.
Were not trying to rush
through the holidays, Freehold-
er Joseph Donnelly said. But as
the holiday season winds to a
close, residents should contact
their municipalities to see if they
offer Christmas tree recycling.
He noted that tree, brush and
yard waste are handled different-
ly in each town.
For trees to be eligible for free
disposal, residents or municipali-
ties must bring them to the land-
fill complex as a separate load
(not mixed with trash). No artifi-
cial or flocked trees can be accept-
ed. All plastic bags, ropes, decora-
tions, garland, tinsel, ornaments,
lights, stands, wire and nails
should be removed.
Treecycling is an easy way
to return a renewable and natural
resource back to the environ-
ment, Donnelly said. The county
grinds up the trees to use as an
amendment to compost produced
at the co-composting facility.
According to the U.S. Environ-
mental Protection Agency, about
33 million real Christmas trees
are sold in the U.S. every year.
Real Christmas trees are a renew-
able resource, with 98 percent of
them being grown and harvested
each year as a crop. They are car-
bon neutral and create organic,
biodegradable waste, making
them the greener choice for
Christmas greenery in compari-
son to artificial trees.
For more information call the
Resource Recovery Complex scale
house Monday through Friday 7
a.m. to 5 p.m. or Saturday 7 a.m. to
2 p.m. at (609) 499-5300 or the coun-
ty Recycling Office at (609) 499-
1001.

tree at this
