WHAT: Freeholder Director Louis Cappelli Jr. pledges a 2009 budget that will not increase property taxes as he takes the oath of office for a fourth one-year term as director of the seven-member board. His comments, after taking the oath of office, will also focus on a projected shortfall of $13 million and the board’s direction to county administrators to find ways to implement the no-new-taxes commitment.

State Sen. Dana Redd, a former aide to Freeholder Cream, will swear in Ms. Cream and Assemblyman Louis Greenwald (D-Camden County) will administer the oath of office to Freeholder Edward T. McDonnell for another one-year term as deputy director.
