§ IT© But it's doubtful communities will benefit from legislation In a state known for being mired in red tape, Gov. Chris- tine Todd Whitman has signed legislation designed to free communities from several state mandates and ease their bureaucratic and financial burdens. While it's a good first step, it isn't the earthshalring, money-saving news the governor and the bill's sponsors make it out to be. The governor, in her bill-signing ceremony last week, said the Mandates Relief Act of 1996 will allow municipalities to deliver services to taxpayers more efficiently and less expensively. She boastfully said the state is once again putting money bade into the pockets of taxpayers. Gov. Whitman, however, has admitted she doesn't know how much money communities would actually save. The legislation, which was co-sponsored by Assemblyman Alan Augustine (R-Union, Somerset, Morris and Middlesex), is limited because it only addresses small stuff. For example, issues such as when to hold a pet census, traffic light installation, letting municipalities with populations of fewer than 500 conduct elections by mail, and allowing local police departments to assign officers as school crossing guards are now left in the hands of municipal officials. While all that is fine and it definitely lets towns avoid some Trenton bureaucracy — such as the months of time it could take to get approval to install a stop light — there are many larger unfunded mandates that would go a longer way in bringing properly tax relief. The mandates municipalities are now relieved of really won't make a difference in the bottom line. Not doing a dog census and staggering the expiration of licenses will probably only save a municipality a few thou- sand dollars — if that. And how many New Jersey municipalities have fewer than 500 people? Not many, and cer- tainly none in this. area. The legislation will improve relations between a munici- § power pality and the state because it cuts red tape, but that's about all it will really do.
