Soaking up the sun
Vote to determine
trash, tax changes
By KATHLEEN DUFFY
The Medford Sun
On April 17, Medford residents
will have a ballot choice that
could either increase property
taxes or sacrifice municipal trash
collection.
At a township meeting on
Tuesday, March 20, residents
filled the courtroom nearly to ca-
pacity to voice their varied opin-
ions on the subject.
If the referendum at hand pass-
es next month, the average town-
ship homeowner can expect a
$344 property tax increase rather
than the previously stated surge
of $450 or more.
Still reeling from what officials
have described as more than a
half a decade of flawed govern-
ment operations and recent gov-
ernment cuts due to the resulting
financial crisis, the new mayor
and council members feel the ref-
erendum would be the best option
for the future success of Medford.
Mayor James Randy Pace
said during the meeting the coun-
cil considers the best interests of
all members of the public when
making decisions, rather than a
select few and challenged dis-
senters to do something better.
Medford Chief of Police
Richard Meder, whose depart-
ment endured four more layoffs
last month, said council members
have maintained the same mes-
sage at each public meeting.
I think it was consistent with
all the meetings that weve had,
he said. It was a positive thing to
see that the budget gap is dwin-
dling.
In 2009, the department had 49
officers on staff.
Currently, were at 28 offi-
cers, the chief said, four of
whom are on loan to outside enti-
ties.
A police lieutenant will be re-
tiring at the end of this month as
well, he said.
I dont think Medfords going
to feel the full effects of the lost
police officers for some time,
said Meder of the recent layoffs.
The department used to be
proactive, he said. Now, the
force can only be reactive to
residents needs going call by
call to each issue based on the pri-
ority level of the issue.
People are going to have to un-
derstand that theyre going to
have to wait longer than they
have in the past, he said. Its not
a first come, first serve.
Resident Donna Symons wor-
ries about the recent police lay-
offs and said shes not sure they
are adequately staffed anymore.
This concern is not being ad-
dressed in the referendum, she
said in an email.
However, she is agreeable with
the referendums terms.
I do think the referendum is
the right course for Medford at
this time, she said. I believe the
residents need to attend meet-
ings, visit the municipal website
to learn the facts, enabling them
to make a valid decision. I would
prefer not to have trash pick up
eliminated. A more uniform
method of one vendor will deter
potential aesthetic conse-
quences.

the public to be adequately in-
formed about the consequences of
Community mum on DWI charge
By KATHLEEN DUFFY
The Medford Sun
It has now been about a month
since Medford schools Superin-
tendent Joseph Del Rossi al-
legedly drove and crashed a 2003
Jeep Liberty registered to the
Board of Education while under
the influence of alcohol the
night of Feb 26, according to offi-
cials.
The community at-large is
staying mostly silent.
More than 40 community
members, in various settings,
were asked by The Medford Sun
to voice their opinions sur-
rounding the ongoing issue, but
not one person would divulge an
attributed comment.
One resident, who would only
comment without giving a name,
said if the accident had occurred
within the borders of Medford
Township, it would not have
been heavily covered by local
news.
They keep things hush,
hush, she said of town officials.
Many residents refused to
share their opinion due to poten-
tial town gossip or repercussions
of sharing their names.
Good luck finding someone
to comment, was a common re-
sponse.
Board president Michael Etter
did not immediately respond to a
request for comment.
Sgt. Joseph Friel, of the Eve-
sham Township Police Depart-
ment, said on Feb. 26, officers re-
sponded to Sagemore Drive in
the area of the Marlton Parkway
and found Del Rossis
vehicle lying on its side in the
roadway.
When they talked to the driv-
er, who is Joseph Del Rossi, he
advised them that he had
swerved to avoid a deer, which
caused the vehicle to go off the
roadway, he said.

ance to businesses on perform-
ance, growth and in making criti-

Think twice before approving
budget, says writer
On April 17, Medford residents will be
asked to approve a budget that exceeds the
2 percent maximum increase, set by the
state. Think twice.
Saying yes to an increase in your real es-
tate taxes, for the purpose of preserving
basic services in Medford, is shortsighted,
and only kicks the can down the road.
After years of mismanagement and neg-
ligence by previous township councils and
school boards, the town of Medford has hit
a brick wall.
We are simply broke.
The new council has demonstrated total
transparency concerning the severity of
our problems, and has invited residents to
participate in a debate of how to move the
town forward. We owe them every opportu-
nity to succeed!
However, and this is important, another
increase in real estate taxes does NOT
solve the fundamental and structural prob-
lems that Medford is facing.
To illustrate my point, if you were to
move across the river to Pennsylvania, and
move into a similar neighborhood to where
you are now living, in a similar size home,
your taxes would be half of what you are
currently paying.
Lets say it as it is.
The main problem and there are others
is the compensation and benefits of pub-
lic employees. The healthcare and pension
benefits enjoyed by our public workers are
not only fiscally unsustainable, but they
also are not available to regular people,
like you and I. Not even close! It is time to
level the playing field. There is no other so-
lution to returning Medford to prosperity.
By saying no to a tax increase, we pro-
vide our council with the tools it needs to
face the public workers unions on pay and
benefits. The alternative would be for the
state to come in and do the dirty work.
The public workers unions should
know that they will be better off negotiat-
ing with our own township Council than
facing up to the state.
Not entirely unimportant, a no may
also force debt holders to the table, and re-
sult in better loan terms.

Medford losing valuable asset
in YMCA swim center
Residents of Medford and surrounding
towns are losing a valuable asset in our
community The Family Swim Center
located at YMCA Camp Ockanickon.
The center has been in existence for
more than 30 years. For a fee, members
could enjoy swimming, fishing, boating
and picnicking, at the designated FSC
beachfront from Memorial Day to Labor
Day. For an additional fee of $75, one could
purchase an off-season membership to ac-
cess to the camp for the purposes of hik-
ing, mountain biking or simply enjoying
nature.
FSC members were notified, over the
holidays, that the Family Swim Center is
not going to open this summer. The main
reason noted for the closure was that, in
the past two years, day camp enrollment
has increased by 40 percent; therefore, the
Family Swim Center beach area is needed
for the day campers. Members were also
advised the off-season membership is now
$225.
Some of the Family Swim Center mem-
bers formed a group and voiced their objec-
tions to the plan, as we believe closing the
center is not in keeping with a long-stand-
ing partnership with the local community.
It should be noted that in 1997, Camp Ock-
anickon accepted $2.52 million in Green
Acres money, half of which was funded by
the taxpayers of Medford Township.
Medford Township residents are still
paying on the loan taken out to pay Camp
Ockanickon.
A meeting was set to explore solutions
that would allow the public access to the
property, and meet the needs of the
campers. At the meeting, several workable
in our opinion
W
hen New Jersey abandoned
its plans for a standalone
February presidential pri-
mary, people thought the state might
lose political clout.
And that line of thinking made
sense: The earlier the primary, the
more impact a state might have and
the more money presidential candi-
dates might spend in the state trying
to win voters.
But the move made sense for other
reasons. The political parties werent
happy with the February date. And the
election would have cost millions of
tax dollars about $12 million to be
more precise. Holding a single pri-
mary election in June for multiple
contests was the wise move.
Now, it looks like the June date still
might pay dividends since the GOP
primary shows no signs of getting less
intense.
Now, our guess is that there might
not be a huge economic windfall, but,
these days, snaring a few extra dollars
doesnt hurt.
New Jerseys impact on the race
isnt as great as Californias. That
state also holds its primary on June 5.
And California has more than three
times the number of delegates up for
grabs than does New Jersey: 172 to 50.
Also, were not too sure how compet-
itive the GOP race will be in the state.
Our guess is Mitt Romney will carry
the day here and that the other can-
didates know this. How much time
and money will they spend in the Gar-
den State? Who knows? It all depends
on what happens in the coming
weeks.
Still, having the primary matter at
least a little bit is somewhat exciting.
Its kind of the icing on the cake the
cake being the other benefits the state
realized by moving the date.
We certainly wouldnt mind a few
visits from the political campaigns.
Their presence will help to boost local
economies and theres a little bit of
prestige on the line if the race stays
close.
Will N.J. primary matter?
This year, it just might, if all of the GOP candidates stay in the race
A contested primary?
When the state moved its presidential
primary to June, it made economic
sense, but some wondered about the
potential downside of making the pri-
mary irrelevant. However, this years
GOP contest could liven things up.

solutions were submitted to the
board of Camp Ockanickon.
These solutions included, but
were not limited to, opening the
swim center at 3 p.m. Monday
though Friday and weekends 10
a.m. to 8 p.m., when the campers
are not using the beach, and mak-
ing better use of the beach at the
boys resident camp (since there
has been a decrease in the resi-
dent camp enrollment).
The response received from the
board president stated that the de-
cision to close the Family Swim
Center remains unchanged. It
also states the beach area may be
available on weekends, but sug-
gests it may not be available every
weekend.
When a subsequent response
was received from the camps
CEO, we were advised the beach
area would be available to the
public only 14 days this summer,
with very limited hours.
The members of the FSC cant
help but feel betrayed by the
camps board of directors and the
camps CEO Keith VanDerzee,
who seem intent on changing the
camp into a for-profit daycare
center at the expense of long es-
tablished programs such as the
Family Swim Center.
The FSC was one of the few
programs at the camp that en-
abled all local residents to enjoy
the camp property year round. It
is especially troubling that in
these tough economic times, they
have also tripled the off-season
membership fee.
As a further insult, they have
staffed many jobs with interna-
tional counselors, taking away
jobs once held by local residents.
It seems clear that they want only
our money, and not our presence,
at the camp.
It should also be noted that an-
other not-for-profit camp in town,
Camp Kettle Run, allows free ac-
cess (for hiking) to Medford resi-
dents in the true spirit of the
Green Acres funding that they re-
ceived. For that, we are very
grateful.
At a time when Medford is fac-
ing severe budget cuts, the resi-
dents remain responsible to serv-
icing the tremendous debt that we
took on in behalf of the camp. If
we only knew then what we know
now, we might have saved the
township portion of that $2.52
million and used it instead for or-
ganizations that service and re-
spect the citizens of Medford.
- Joan Schifferdecker
Writer saddened by
swim centers closing
While the YMCA has many
valuable programs, I am deeply
disturbed and saddened by the re-
cent decision of the management
of Camp Ockanickon in Medford
to close the Family Swim Center.
A once vibrant program of 30
years has been mismanaged and
weakened over the last three
years by a decrease in hours and
the replacement of dedicated
local lifeguards with internation-
al workers.
Instead of taking the necessary
steps to strengthen the program,
it has been eliminated. The rea-
sons for this decision are unclear.
First, it was said to be money.
Next, it was that center didnt fit
the Y mission statement. Then, it
was the space was needed for day
camp.
Solutions for each of these
problems were offered, but camp
management refused to consider
remedying the issues.
Offers to help increase mem-
bership and fundraising specifi-
cally for the Family Swim Center
were repeatedly refused by camp
management. The mission of the
Y is strong kids, strong families
and strong communities. The
Family Swim Center supported
all three facets.
Space issues could be solved
with better scheduling and usage
of existing beachfronts.
Since none of these issues
seem to be valid, one has to ques-
tion this decision. Is it because
Family Swim members com-
plained to management about
safety issues leaking kayaks,
inattentive life guards or coun-
selors ignoring the campers in
their charge on changeover week-
ends?
At a time when many families
are struggling financially, elimi-
nating a program designed to give
local families an outdoor recre-
ational space seems shortsighted.
While we live in an area of many
lakes, families not residing in a
lake community have no access to
these waterfront areas. The for-
mer Family Swim Center provid-
ed an environment for swimming,
boating, fishing and picnicking.
Most importantly, it allowed in-
teraction and communication be-
tween siblings, parents and ex-
tended family members.
Numerous studies have docu-
mented the positive relationship
between this type of experience
and the strengthening of family
values and bonds. Making the
day camp bigger will increase
area traffic and change the char-
acter of Camp Ockanickon from
camp to daycare.
To quote from the Lorax, I
meant no harm. I most truly did
not. But I had to grow bigger. So
bigger I got. Surely, when the
state of New Jersey and Medford
Township gave Camp Ockanick-
on Green Acres status and fund-
ing, local public access for out-
door activity was assumed.
Camp Ockanickon needs to re-
think its decision and find a way
to include all families.
Right now, it is only servicing
those wealthy enough to afford
camp or needy enough to receive
financial aid. Local, middle-in-
come families have been excluded
from the benefits of the beautiful
setting that our tax dollars have
supported. Camp Ockanickon
has failed the families of the for-
mer Family Swim Center.

showed the superintendent to be
under the influence. He was sub-
sequently charged and released
later that night.
In a statement released earlier
this month, Del Rossi, who is cur-
rently taking a leave of absence
from his position, said, Through-
out my career, my main goal has
been to keep the focus of our
work on the teaching and learn-
ing process for students. Because
of the disruption the current cir-
cumstance has caused, I feel that
it would be in the best interest of
our entire school community for
me to take some time away from
my responsibilities.
I apologize for any inconven-
ience, concern or unrest this situ-
ation has caused our school dis-
trict, especially our students. I
know at this time there are many
unanswered questions, but for
legal reasons, I cant address
them.
At some point in the very near
future, I look forward to doing
that. Thank you for your patience
and understanding in this mat-
ter.
Medford Mayor James
Randy Pace said he believes Del
Rossi did the township a disserv-
ice through his actions.
He was a well-liked, well-re-
spected man, Pace said.
Del Rossis prominent public
persona is a driver of the town
outrage surrounding the inci-
dent, he said.
One bad decision. Thats all it
takes.

Medford Works!, in partner-
ship with Medford Arts Center
and the Township Economic De-
velopment Commission, is
pleased to announce an evening
conference entitled Perception
vs. Reality: Promoting Medford,
to be held Tuesday, May 8 from
6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Medford
Arts Center at 18 N. Main St.
This conference was developed
as an outcome of the Medford
Works! Action Summit held last
month. The featured speaker will
be Lynn Pechinski, president of
1st Straw Marketing and Promo-
tions.
Pechinski, a resident and busi-
ness owner, will lead participants
through an interactive presenta-
tion that will explore perceptions
of Medford and how we might ef-
fectively spread the good word
about Medford through branding
and marketing strategies.
Pechinski is a sought after
speaker and trainer and will cer-
tainly provide an informative and
entertaining presentation.
Roundtables will follow her
presentation with a goal to gath-
ering thoughts that might be
summarized and presented to
township leadership.
Sign in begins at 6:30 p.m.,
with light refreshments to be
served.
This free conference is open to
the public, but pre-registration is
required since space is limited to
50 participants.
Interested parties may register
with Medford Works! by contact-
ing Janet Carlson Giardina at
janetcarlsong2@gmail.com.
Building strength in kids, fami-
lies and communities: that has
been the primary goal of YMCA
Camps of Medford for more than
100 years. Whether helping to
build self-confidence, courage
and independence or just giving
kids a chance to connect with na-
ture and peers in a safe environ-
ment, the camps mission of
molding boys and girls into
strong, confident adults remains
unchanged.
In keeping with that mission,
camp has kicked off its 2012 an-
nual appeal with a goal of
$190,000. The money raised
through our annual appeal helps
families where a mom or dad has
lost a job, families who are strug-
gling to meet the everyday de-
mands of life and families who
have a child with a special need
with no one else to turn to.
All these parents have some-
thing in common. They simply
want the best childhood for their
sons and daughters.
Camp gives kids a chance to
practice being the best they can
be. They experience a place de-
signed to create happy memories
and encourage self-expression.
Kids have the opportunity to
climb towers, ride horses, shoot
an arrow and even experience the
success of winning a big game.
Kids learn from a full range of
emotions and human experi-
ences, including homesickness,
friendship, disagreements and
teamwork.
Camp can shape a life.
The funds raised by the annual
campaign help the camp provide
summer camp to include day and
overnight, special needs camps,
outdoor education and family and
group retreats and programs.
For more information or to
contribute to the annual cam-
paign, please call Darleen Blesi at
(609) 654-8225 or visit

Camp campaign kicks off
Promoting Medford conference in May
voting one way or another.
Corbi is creating a document
with FAQs free of charge as a
courtesy, not an election cam-
paign contribution, to be distrib-
uted throughout the community
to aid that venture.
Were really trying to get the
clarity out there, he said.
The director and past president
of the Headwater Village Civic
Association has been forming the
Medford Homeowners Associa-
tion Alliance (MHAA) to set up a
board of directors between the
residential areas of the town as a
united, non-partisan, not-for-prof-
it front for information sharing.
That board will be meeting
April 1.
No matter how you vote,
please vote, he urged. Thats the
most important thing. Everybody
should vote.
Corbi believes the council has
been doing its best to steer the
town into a positive direction.
They are dedicated, diligent
patriots for the cause of these
people, he said of the members.
Theyre trying to do the right
thing. Its very difficult to undo
eight years in eight weeks.
He said the issue at hand is a
wonderful opportunity for Med-
ford residents to make a differ-
ence in the community.
Its a chance to make a little
history, he said.
If the town chooses to accept
the referendum and thus retain
collection of trash, township
manager Christopher Schultz
said the council would potentially
be looking into other, more afford-
able trash removal options.
Currently, 11 percent of all 2012
taxes are allocated to municipal
services, which was worrisome to
numerous residents at the meet-
ing.
Schultz said that if the referen-
dum passes, the budget gap for
the township would be closer in
number to surrounding towns in
New Jersey.
He believes it will take about
two years to straighten finances
in the town, and said the rating
from Moodys was not a down-
grade last year, that the town was
placed on a watch list.
Councilman Chris Buoni said:
We need businesses in Medford
to help generate additional rev-
enue.
If the referendum does not
pass, the council has until April
30 to decide on its next move.
Pace says he wont give up on
Medford.
On April 17, he said, Medford
Township has a choice.

Recently, Congressman Jon
Runyan (NJ-03) continued his call
for the U.S. Office of Personnel
Management (OPM) to correct an
ongoing pay disparity among
workers at Joint Base McGuire
Dix Lakehurst (JB MDL). In a let-
ter to OPM Director John Berry,
Runyan stressed the need for
worker pay across the base to be
covered under the same wage
grade. Currently the base em-
ployees are split between the New
York City and Philadelphia wage
grades.
Before the 2005 Base Realign-
ment and Closure Commission
(BRAC) decision, the JB MDL
was three separate installations,
Fort Dix, McGuire Air Force
Base, and Lakehurst Naval
Airstation.
Fort Dix and McGuire AFB
wage grade employees were paid
at the lowerer Philadelphia wage
pay grade, while Lakehurst em-
ployees were in the higher New
York City wage rate. After the
2005 BRAC combined these bases,
the disparity of pay remained for
the hourly employees on the base
but not the salaried employees
who were are all transferred to
the higher New York City wage
rate.
On March 15, the Federal Pre-
vailing Rate Advisory Committee
(FPRAC) held a meeting to dis-
cuss sending a recommendation
to Director Berry about wage
grade parity at military installa-
tions, such as JB MDL.
Congressman Runyans staff
attended the meeting in support
of forwarding the recommenda-
tion and read a letter of support
into the record. In a split deci-
sion, the FPRAC committee will
be forwarding a recommendation
to OPM Director Berry that
would call for granting wage
grade parity at JB MDL and other
bases like it.
This wage grade pay disparity
was caused by the government
and should be fixed by the govern-
ment, said Runyan, in a press re-
lease. These hardworking wage
grade base employees - many of
whom are veterans - have waited
long enough and deserve to have
their pay adjusted to the New
York City wage rate. I am trou-
bled that OPM continues to delay,
re-study, and re-vote on a recom-
mendation that was already
agreed to by the Federal Prevail-
ing Rate Advisory Committee
back in 2010. I will continue to
fight to remedy this inequity."
In an effort to help the hourly
wage employees of JB MDL, Run-
yan had language added to the fis-
cal year 2012 National Defense
Authorization Act (NDAA) to
remedy this situation.
The NDAA, which was signed
into law by President Obama De-
cember 31 2011, requested that
OPM coordinate with the Depart-
ment of Defense in ensuring that
all employees at JB MDL are paid
at the same wage rate. Addition-
ally Representative Runyan intro-
duced H.R. 1688, the BRAC Wage
Locality Pay Parity Act of 2011.
New Jerseys 3rd Congression-
al District is home to JB MDL,
which employs over 40,000 men
and women and is the second
largest employer in New Jersey.
Runyan serves on the House
Armed Services Committee, the
House Veterans Affairs Commit-
tee and the Natural Resources
Committee.

Saying it reflects their commit-
ment to fiscal policies that are
making Burlington County more
affordable for working class fami-
lies, Burlington County Freehold-
ers Bruce Garganio and Mary
Ann OBrien announced recently
that they have both been en-
dorsed for re-election by the
Southern New Jersey Building &
Construction Trades Council.
Bruce and Mary Ann have
proven themselves to be on the
side of working class families in
Burlington County by enacting
policies that make it more afford-
able to live, work and retire in
South Jersey, said Southern NJ
Building & Construction Trades
Council President James Kehoe.
They have earned our support.
Since joining the Board in 2010,
Garganio and OBrien have cut
county property taxes by $8 mil-
lion and reduced county spending
by $7 million, they said in a press
release.
Under Republican leadership,
county property taxes have de-
clined by $8.6 million and spend-
ing by $9.6 million since 2008.
Due to their fiscal discipline,
Burlington County spends fewer
tax dollars per person than any
county in the state, at $483 per
person. Neighboring counties in
South Jersey spend more: Cam-
den ($628), Gloucester ($700) and
Mercer ($779).
As a foreman carpenter for 25
years, winning the support of my
colleagues in the building and
construction trades is a tremen-
dous honor, said Freeholder Di-
rector Garganio. The trades
union represents thousands of
hardworking Burlington County
families who fight and claw to bal-
ance their family budgets, and ap-
preciate the difficult decisions we
have had to make on the Free-
holder Board in order to cut coun-
ty property taxes and reduce
county spending by millions of
dollars over the last two years.
My top priority as a Freehold-
er is, and always has been, to
make sure that county govern-
ment lives within its means and
reduces the tax burden on indi-
viduals, families, small business-
es and seniors especially in
these difficult economic times,
said Freeholder OBrien. Earn-
ing this endorsement from the
Southern New Jersey Building
and Construction Trades Council
shows that the tough decisions
were making as a Freeholder
Board are being recognized by the
people who pay the bills the tax-
payers. That is very gratifying.
Freeholders Garganio and
OBrien win labor support
