Dear Carol Baran,

Thank you, clarify #2 does the Borough pay the county an open space tax levy for 2020 to 2025 like other towns? This would be found on the tax rate certification the collector or finance officer may have. Can you send those?

Yours sincerely,

OPENDATA2025

Dear Carol Baran,

Thank you. Interesting you pay the tax but Brielle does not receive one penny back from Monmouth County Open Space Grant Program. Is that correct?

Yours sincerely,

OPENDATA2025

Carol Baran,

Every Municipality in Monmouth County pays Open Space Tax.
The County uses these funds to maintain the county park system that benefits all county residents.
