To the Editor:

Like many other residents I attended the Joint Taxpayers Debate to listen to the candidates running for Long Beach Township Commissioner. I was particularly interested in learning the positions of those challenging the incumbent commissioners. I left with several observations.

First, during a discussion about taxes, Mr. Myers stated he would like to see the township reassessed to reflect market value of homes. Market value?! To understand what this would mean I did a little math.
