• Most North Jersey Towns Exceed Property Tax Cap ; Rise in Residential Bills Slows, but News Is Mixed

In Bergen County, 21 percent of the towns kept their tax levy increase at or below 4 percent. In Passaic County, 19 percent met the mandate, designated by Governor Corzine. Towns were granted waivers to exceed the cap for costs deemed out of their control, such as decreases in state aid and increased health care costs.
