Jason Banonis claims that if the landfill can’t expand that the
EFFECT TO EACH LST HOUSEHOLD
is a tax increase of + $3,500
Information presented by Priscilla deLeon on September 20, 2023
If all 4035 households in Lower Saucon paid $3,500 more, that = $14,122,500
The math: (4035 x $3500 = $14,122,500)
That’s almost $11.6 million more* than we got from the landfill in 2022.
*Based on $2,558,245 landfill revenue Page 54, 2022 LST Audit report
Then Banonis said we need a paid fire department all of a sudden at a cost of $2,500,000 per year. He said that will double the tax increase to +$7,000 per year!
That would add $28,245,000 in revenue!!! What???
This is a scare tactic using very terrible math.
There’s no reason anyone’s tax bill would increase as he stated.
