Budget and taxes are top issues at second debate for township committee candidates.
Incumbent Township Committeeman Don Kostka said Tuesday he is seeking another three-year term so he can continue the work of restructuring the township’s annual budget.

Pio Costa hopes to encourage business development, growth in New Jersey.
Tony Pio Costa says he is not a politician. But that isn’t stopping the Fairfield businessman from running for New Jersey State Assembly in District 26. The Towaco resident is challenging Assemblywoman BettyLou DeCroce in the June 5 primary. Assemblywoman DeCroce filled her husband, Assemblyman Alex DeCroce’s, unfinished term earlier this year following his unexpected death in January. At the time of his death, DeCroce had served in the New Jersey Legislature for almost 23 years. “Just passing the seat down to his wife was inappropriate,” Pio Costa said when asked why he chose to enter the race at this time.

Time is running out for poll workers to take certification training if they want to continue to work at election sites. The deadline, according to Tony Desimone, the county’s poll worker training coordinator, is June 2. Title 19 of New Jersey election law requires that all poll workers take an election training class every two years to become or remain a certified board worker, Desimone said in a statement sent to media. Desimone said veteran poll workers who took the class the first time it was offered in 2010 must take a training class by June 2 to become recertified. “It’s the law. This training is mandatory,” Desimone said. “All board workers who have not attended a class in the past two years and all first-time board workers must …
