Two sessions held this week
For residents who were unhappy with their recent tax bills a meeting last week was a chance for them to ask members of the council what caused some of their bills to spike as much as 30 percent or more.

No word yet on tax rate for 2012
Over the past few weeks residents of Howell have received letters in regards to the township's recent reassessment efforts. At the Town Council meeting on Tuesday night the Township's tax assessor and a representative from the company that conducted the reassessment gave an update on the progress of their efforts. While residents may not have been happy with the updated value of the property Mayor Robert Walsh said even before they began their presentation that there was still no firm decision on the tax rate for the upcoming year.
