KARCIC: ONLY 12% OF ALL NJ MUNICIPALTIES PRACTICE RANDOM & ROLLING REASSESSMENTS LIKE NORTH ARLINGTON!
88% of NJ towns and cities are ignoring what North Arlington does and that’s raise property taxes on working families and especially seniors!
No one is following the way of NA!
NORTH ARLINGTON – Republican Councilman Mario Karcic at the most recent meeting of the North Arlington Mayor & Council proudly told residents in attendance and specifically Democratic council candidates that because 70 out of the state’s 565 municipalities practice “random and rolling” assessments, that somehow this unpopular practice and policy a good idea.
Checkout this video clip here:
Someone forgot to tell the councilmember that 12% equates too just 70 of the state’s municipalities!
In other words, why is it that 88% of all of New Jersey’s communities do not practice this unfair and unequitable policy?
The other 495 municipalities basically disagree with North Arlington!
In Bergen County only seven have followed this this practice or a miserable 10%?
For when is unmitigated failure such as this masqueraded as a success?
Obviously, the incumbents Del Russo and DeCicco are not knocking on the doors of residents. A practice they seemingly despise.
For where is the evidence or data that suggests this failed and flawed practice is anywhere close to a good idea?
Think about it.
Who benefits from maximizing tax reassessments as a weapon against property owners?
And what is the point for basically overtaxing and then squirreling away these dollars for unknown reasons? 
The Republicans just voted to spend $1.5 million dollars on an empty and dilapidated River Road structure under the guise of an “emergency appropriation,” and just was the emergency? There was none.
Maybe Karcic should explain why he voted to award a former library employee $200,000 in an out-of-court settlement?
What was done to this individual that they would be rewarded $200,000 to just go away? 
Or speak to the volume of successful tax appeals now over $100,000 in lost tax dollars to say nothing of the legal fees in these losing battles?
“The Republicans have basically made our case and here it is for all to see in living color. So arrogant, so naive and so disrespectful to seniors, they can’t come up with a reason this makes any sense, so they try to explain it away thinking no one is watching or listening. I want to debate these failed incumbents on this single issue, the only issue in this campaign and Del Russo and DeCicco still have nothing to say about their sorry records and it’s a disgrace,” offered candidate John Balwierczak.
