Wildwood - Our mayor again states our property taxes will increase again this coming year. The reason stated is the high cost of our police and firemen. With increasing salaries, pensions, health benefits, promotions, and the addition of a K-9 unit, it has to be paid by our local taxes. Wildwood is one mile long and has 3,000 residents during the winter months. Yet the Asbury Park website shows our police officers make an average $100,000 annual salary, not including the cost of benefits. Why not freeze salaries for five years and let the rest of the state catch up to our police?
