First, budgets exceed income and are rapidly reducing the Ferguson Township’s reserves. Smaller taxes and fees have already been raised. Projected budgets will be in the red by millions of dollars. This cannot continue without depleting the township’s reserve and greatly increasing taxes. Projected expenditures should be re-evaluated and increased tax rates avoided. Second, very few new single family housing units are being built in the township. New housing has been dominated by condominiums and apartments. This is needed but does not replace affordable workforce housing. The township should facilitate the building of single family units attractive to a growing workforce. Third, within our township there are many unused commercial buildings and office spaces. This indicates the environment is not as attractive for businesses as it should be. Regulations could be evaluated to see if mixed use or hybrid models for use might be found.
