$30 Rent Tax Unnecessary and illegal?
Borough Manager\Treasurer Vettraino, Mayor Sandy Green,the Borough Council and Borough Solicitor Dietrich, in their desperate need of revenue to finance Hometown Utilicom have come up with another scheme, a rent tax. Its legality is now being challenged in Court and Solicitor Tim Dietrich stated we better pass it quickly or we may not be able to later. Mr. Vettraino recently called together some landlords to explain the tax to them. Mr. Vettraino has recommended millions of dollars in increased rates, fees and taxes and has never called on anyone to explain his recommendations. He called landlords, most of whom are absentee landlords who do not reside in the Borough and do not have the Borough’s interest at heart.
Borough Solicitor Dietrich who recently received a promotion from his Law firm, Barley Snyder, encourages litigation. Barley Snyder billed the Borough about $120,000 a year, every year, as per the last time I had access to this information. This information is being illegally withheld by the Borough along with the Budgets.
How can Mr. Vettraino state we need this money for the General Fund, when the Borough just increased the rates of every service the it provides. The gross from the Electric Fund alone will be more than $1.5 million.

Just thought of something. You boast that you graduated from Brooklyn Polytech with a degree in engineering in 1957. In 1958, at age 30, you enlisted in the Air Force. What`s the matter? Could`nt find a job? Very strange. You have no wife, your children have disowned you, and you got 36 votes in the re-election you said you would win in a landslide. You stated at previous council meetings that you were a direct descendant of Benito Mussolini, and proud of it. You said you were the most honest person you ever met. You also said that you stand behind every inaccurate statement you`ve ever made. These statements are all tape recorded. Is everyone else wrong, or are you just a big loser? Show us a copy of your engineering degree, and we can go from there, Until that time, no one believes your outlandish lies. I believe you probably had a tough time graduating from kindergarten, and everything else went down hill from there. Signed, Jockitch
the above comment is from a council member right?
ad hominems vs. obvious council corruption? nice...
its interesting that not one council member or any of their lackeys/ass-kissers has adressed any of the points the ex-mayor has brought up.
they instead resort to ad hominem slander. which just shows how true the ex-mayor's critique is.
good job jockitch!
fuck you Kutztown Citizen! Our small town government is an elite little club and we know what's best for you.

To: "citizen" ... Jockitch here ... Jerry knows who i am, so buzz off. I am not nor have i ever been a council member. I have known this Marino character since he moved to Kutztown. I also know he will not reply to any of my questions, because he is a coward, a liar, and a loser. Even his crack sniffing attorney is behind bars. What does it take for some people to open their eyes. I know that 36 did not. How sad. Jockitch
Jockitch, you are aptly named!
A person with integrity, like our former mayor Marino, will stand behind what he says, and will be able to explain any changes in opinion that naturally happen over time. That's how people grow and change, or to put it another way, they mature.
An immature person (known on the web as a troll) will attack the speaker and not his arguments.
You are a shining example of what it means to be a troll.
