New Year's Resolutions
Resolution #1: Boost Bronxville's Economy--which benefits all of us directly--by committing to more spending in town. Perhaps a 10% increase is a reasonable resolution to make--but of course even more would be even better (for all of us)! A strong local economy keeps property values high and taxes down.
