The Lodi Mayor and Council are Holding Off the New Revaluation Assessments Until After November 4th Because They Are Going to Be Devastating to the Lodi Taxpayers...

The County taxes could double for Lodi Taxpayers because most of the County has already been reassessed multiple times in the last twenty years. The County has a set rate and says Lodi is very undervalued (not paying it's proper share). 

And County taxes could be the least of the Lodi taxpayers' worries.

The Lodi Mayor and Council are buying time to help Mark DelMonaco but also help the three incumbent County Commissioners who have been giving double digit percentage tax increases without the Revaluation.

The County employs Scott Luna and had employed Vinny Martin even as his business was busted multiple times for cocaine and prostitution. The phony Lodi Mayor and Council Members placed a letter in your tax bill showing how bad Mary Amoroso, Thomas Sullivan, and Germaine Ortiz have been with double digit percentage County tax increases yet they campaign for them because they care more about their own self-enrichment than Lodi's interests.

The County ordered Lodi's Revaluation because they said Lodi was paying less than the other Bergen County towns due to its outdated assessments. But then it allowed Lodi to delay for years. Past posts on the subject:

Don't take my word for it. Ask Scott Luna or Marc Schrieks now so they are not given an opportunity to lie after the fact. Ask them about the Revaluation release date and how the new assessments will impact the Lodi taxpayers.

The Mayor and Council, Marc Schrieks, Gary Paparozzi, and others have been nothing but secretive and dishonest about their Revaluation process. Gary Paparozzi somehow managed to make a real lot of money during from the Revaluation (besides being paid as a fake full-time Borough employee and "Planner" with a noncompetitive professional service contract).
