The action came at a meeting on Tuesday.
The Haddonfield Board of Commissioners approved new parking regulations for Kings Highway on Tuesday and introduced an ordinance to increase water and sewer rates in the borough.

Commissioners are expected to approve a request for bids Tuesday.
A kiosk is coming soon to a Haddonfield parking space near you. The only remaining questions seem to be: Will it be the thinner-looking gray one with the digital display, the sleek black one seen in Collingswood and much of Philadephia, or even another brand that’s not yet on the radar screen?

The other type of kiosk allows motorists to…

It's interesting to note that the Borough recently spent $1.7 million to upgrade every water meter in town to high-tech radio frequency units, and we still have a 'Water Meter Foreman'. So..why did we upgrade the meters if they don't improve productivity??? more ›

4 years ago our rates were $4.50 and $2.15 respectively. That's a 9% increase over the past 4 years. I'd love to hear the justification for these rate increases and why we are not seriously considering having a professional run our water utility. There must be better things we can do with our tax dollars than to try to run a water and sewer utility! more ›
