I could not find the previous years budget data to compare with. Does anyone know where to find them? Thanks.

2 of the 12 are police officers and I have absolutely no issue with funding for polic, fire or EMS. Since police are the only full time employees of the three I have no issue hiring another 2 if that is what they feel is needed.
The 10 other staff members I have no idea. I heard that they were considering a full time recreation director and I hope that is not one of the positions. Our town is too small for that position to be full time.
I agree.
Keep Cranbury small, simple, and nice.
It will be nice if someone can tell us what the hiring is all about. Thanks!

Does anyone have the entire details to our Cranbury budget? This one page summary doesn't have enough info. Not sure why the township doesn't post this. Even my 15yr old can scan a document and generate the PDF for the website from home in a few minutes. Does the township need an intern to help with this and better educate our community?
I would also like to see each TC meeting minutes posted more quickly as well. I appreciate the work the Cranbury Press plays in communicating the info to us, but frankly a lot more is said and done at these meetings and they frankly don't have the space or ink to document all the important facts for us. I don't even see the minutes from the last meeting over a week ago since I missed it. I think this type of prompt communication would eliminate all the misinformation for lack of data on this forum. We have been doing that at my company for over 10years now, and I would like to see this type of prompt communication from my local government too, since I work in NYC and can't make all the meetings in time.
Here is a link to send a message to them:

P.S. There is an increase of 12 town employees in 2007. I wonder what kind of jobs they do?
