A 2 percent cap on police and fire salary negotiations expired D

Avalon - A 2 percent cap on police and fire salary negotiations expired Dec 31, and the Borough of Avalon is asking for an extension. Have they ever heard of just saying no? At a time when realized salaries are way out of line, and givebacks should be considered by police and fire unions, thankful that their people even have a job, how can raises be justified? The offseason populous does not justify the numbers or the monies spent to keep services at record numbers all year long. More people need to pay attention to this issue and monitor the elected officials' actions on this hot topic.
