The above was taken from the following report issued
in 2011:
After the above report was issued in 2011 and there
were calls for reform throughout the State, Lodi’s Tax Assessor continued lowering the taxes for “family
and friends” of Lodi politicians. The reductions
were done “in house” without tax appeals ever being filed. They were significant and inequitable. They were done at the same time that Reggo
was arguing that Lodi should be the only town in Bergen County not in need of a
town wide reassessment.
This scandal is indisputable and backed up with tax records.
This is government corruption at its worst.
Once again, the rest of Lodi paid for the special “in
house reductions”. Their taxes went up
as the politicos’ went down.
Reggo has never answered for anything because he acted
on the orders from others within this administration.
Where is the justice?
The report against Carlson is scathing, yet he is
still employed by Saddle Brook and Ridgefield Park.
Reggo’s actions were even worse, yet he is collecting
over $200,000 and laughing all the way to the bank.
I
have discovered many abuses by our Mayor and Council within the last three
years. But their “tax fixing scandal” is
the worst. It was the reason why I first
began attending council meetings.
