Taxes to rise 38 percent in Hanover.

What do I get for the taxes I am now paying? Street lights blocks apart with 10 watt bulbs. Moul Park field lights kept on when it is pouring and no one is using the field.

Town water with an obnoxious smell that turns my bathroom glass and toilet red-orange every two days.

Storm drains blocks apart. Water in the alley behind my house has to go down a hill, turn a corner, and go down another incline to even get close to a drain.

No services for needy seniors, such as senior ride.

One bag of trash picked up each week at the same cost as the family of six with three to four bags each week.

Imagine how well Hanover Borough will do with 38 percent more of my money to spend.

On the subject of Hanover taxes, I would like to mention my out-of-sight school taxes for a school ranked among the lowest in the state. Thank you teachers for agreeing to lower raises. How about the administrators doing the same?
