• Would you like to see hundreds more cars and trucks clogging up our streets, making it harder to get to work, school, MDs?
• Would you like to park in a dangerous, windowless garage, where a police officer right outside couldn’t hear your screams?
• Would you like to pay higher taxes – and lower the value of your house – to give a big developer a 30-year tax break?

Big real estate interests have ensnared Chatham Borough in an extreme, risky corporate welfare scheme. They plan to build a massive, multi-story, 200-unit rental apartment/retail complex behind our Post Office. It will transform our town into a bleak, high-tax, transit hub and, ultimately, a failed city.

Only your new Mayor and Borough Council can prevent that!

Come help your neighbors encourage them:

Borough Hall, 54 Fairmount Avenue, Chatham, NJ

Assure the new Mayor and Council that you will support them in doing what’s best for Chatham:

• Let the Redeveloper’s designation expire;
• Rescind the Redevelopment Plan for Post Office Plaza;
• Consider moderate options that don’t involve:
  • worsening traffic;
  • sacrificing our open-air, public parking;
  • giving away corporate welfare tax breaks; or
  • shifting business risks to Chatham taxpayers; and
• Conduct due diligence, and a valid survey of all households and businesses by U.S. Mail, with pros and cons of at least three such options.
