    Dr. Still, performed by a character actor, described his life as the first black doctor of the pines, treating anyone who needed it in neighbor-ing towns. He worked with neighbors, the Bunning family, where the center for education is located in addition to anyone in the community.Hundreds of residents and guests traveled by car and jitney for the open house of the Medford Historical Society Center for Education at theBunning Farm on Church Road, Sept. 22. The opening of the educational center is the first step in the Dr. James Still Preservation Project,according to Bill Stauts, president of the historical society.

    Community celebrates new educational centerBy SHANNON CAULFIELD

    The Medford Sun

    The themes of Dr. James Still,the first Black Doctor of thePines, as he is best known, areservice and community.

    Both themes came togetherwhen the Medford Historical So-ciety moved forward with theopening on Sept. 22 of the Med-ford Historical Society Center forEducation at the Bunning Farmon Church Road, immediatelyneighboring Stills original office.

    The opening of the educationalcenter is the first step in the Dr.James Still Preservation Project,according to Bill Stauts, presidentof the historical society.

    The project has been movingalong for quite a few months. Itsbeen quite successful, Stautssaid. We still have more to do.

    According to Stauts, the openhouse event was well attendedwith hundreds of people on theproperty throughout the day.

    This was a successful kick-offday, Stauts said.

    The societys plan is to fully re-store Stills office to its originalstate, with three rooms whereStill would practice his medicine.

    According to Janet Carlson Gi-ardina, the historical societysproject coordinator at the Bun-ning Farm and now the educa-tional coordinator, the center foreducation is an opportunity for

    Why are you running for coun-cil?

    I am running for re-election toMedford Township Council tocontinue the work of restoringMedford.

    If elected what would be yourtop priority?

    The focus of the Medford

    Township Council has been sinceJanuary 2012 and must be goingforward the financial well beingof Medford Township. This newCouncil inherited a $6 millionbudget deficit at the beginning of2012. We adopted a balancedbudget on time, and began theprocess of restoring Medford. In2013, we again balanced the mu-nicipal budget on time, and did sowithout any tax increase by re-ducing the budget from roughly$22 million in 2012 to approxi-

    mately $19 million in 2013. Thereis much work to be done, though,to make sure that Medford is fis-cally stable for the long term. Wecan achieve this goal by ensuringthat the municipality providesonly core municipal services andseeing to it that Medford is busi-ness friendly while still maintain-

    Additionally, it is the gatewayto restoring Stills office.

    The center will feature speak-ers, workshops, events and educa-

    tional programs for students.The Bunning house features a

    lecture hall, formerly the livingroom, which faces directly northor in line with the office.

    John Trontis, assistant direc-tor of the state division of parksand forestry, described the posi-tioning of the room as fate, oralignment of the stars.

    Im thrilled and so excited tosee the groundswell of supportfor a historic site that has been ig-nored for so many years, Trontis

    said. The preservation of theBunning Farm is just the firststep.

    The office, which is historicallyregistered, must go through a dif-ferent process of restoration thanthe Bunning Farm, according toTrontis, and will cost a greatdeal of money.

    The state had the money re-served prior to Hurricane Sandy,said Janet Jackson-Gould, thehistorical societys vice president

    of programs. Were waiting forthe money to come through.ShopRite of Medford and Med-

    ford Subaru made donations, butthe project will cost into the mil-lions, Trontis said.

    According to Giardina, the cen-ter for education would neverhave had the chance to open if itwerent for members of the com-munity donating money, furni-ture and volunteering their time.

    New Jersey residents are rich.

    Really rich. Were the second-

    richest state in the nation, be-

    hind only those people two states to

    the south in Maryland.

    The median household income for

    New Jersey residents is $69,667. Thats

    pretty good news.The bad news: That number is

    boosted in large part by the states

    ridiculously wealthy families. More

    than 11 percent of families here have

    an income of more than $200,000 per

    year.

    On the surface, the Garden States

    ranking of No. 2 on the list of wealthi-

    est states, compiled by 24/7 Wall St., isa positive sign to our economys health

    and future prospects. Dig deeper,

    though, and youll see a much differ-

    ent story.

    New Jerseys unemployment rate

    was 9.5 percent in 2012, one of the

    worst in the country. The national av-erage was 8.1 percent. The state above

    us on the rich list, Maryland, had a

    low unemployment rate of 6.8 percent,

    for example. Even worse, the number

    of people on food stamps increased

    from 8 percent in 2011 to 9.3 percent in

    2012.

    That is not good news.

    Still, our outlook is getting better. Asof August, New Jerseys unemploy-

    ment rate was 8.5 percent, according

    to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

    Thats the lowest mark since March

    2009, when it was 8.3 percent. It also

    closed the gap between the national

    unemployment rate, which sat at 7.3

    percent in August.

    But New Jersey needs to help busi-

    nesses create more jobs. While the

    state gained 60,300 jobs in the past 12

    months, it lost 1,500 in August. From

    July to August, more than 12,000 work-

    ers stopped looking for work and leftthe workforce.

    Thats not good, either.

    Gov. Christie recently revamped the

    states business tax breaks in an effort

    to add more jobs, but how effective

    that will be might take time to tell. Its

    a good first step, as any incentive to

    add more jobs is a positive step, as

    long as the state isnt digging a deeperdebt hole.

    The bottom line is our workers need

    more jobs because the fact is that,

    while a small percentage of New Jer-

    sey families are rich, most are still

    struggling.

    in our opinion

    Were rich!!Well, at least some people are

    Your thoughts

    What, if anything, should our stategovernment do to incentivize businessesto add more jobs?

    Vote for good change: ElectSteve Lonegan to Senate

    New Jersey voters rarely have thechance to influence national politics, butthey can send a clear message of change byelecting Mayor Steve Lonegan to the U.S.Senate. Suffice to say that electing CoryBooker sends the wrong message, thateverything is just fine with the direction ofthe country and the economy. Washingtongrows fat while the rest of the countrybarely gets by and grows weaker and weak-

    er.Sadly, the economic reality is that it's

    more like a depression out there than eco-nomic recovery that supposedly started in2009.

    Does the "new normal" economy mean

    settling for something that previously wasunacceptable? Do you want a better life foryour children? Then you must changeAmerica's course now.

    Forget the talking heads on cable and theeconomic experts who have produced thisterrible world. Funny how the so-calledrichest 1 percent are the ones who are gain-ing under the economic polices of Democ-rat Obama. Witness the vacant storefrontswith all the friends and family who cannotfind jobs. It doesn't feel right because it'snot right!

    The latest economic burden Obama is

    placing on us all is Obamacare. Not just thehigher costs in premiums for everyone, notthe lower ones promised, or the highertaxes on businesses trying to survive hardtimes, but the fact that those people luckyenough to get jobs are only getting part-

    time work that don't have health-care cov-erage. Part-time work can't pay for full-timelives.

    Send a message from New Jersey to therest of the country that things have tochange for the better and that means a dif-ferent direction and that starts with elect-ing Steve Lonegan to the U.S. Senate onOct. 16. Vote for good change.

    The Medford Township PoliceCriminal Investigation Bureauconducted an investigation per-taining to a fraudulent check thatwas deposited at the ColumbiaBank in May.

    The investigation revealed thesuspect knowingly deposited thefraudulent check and subsequent-ly transferred the funds.

    Through the course of this in-vestigation, detectives alsolearned that the suspect misrep-resented himself as having nu-merous professional licenses inorder to gain employment at aMedford Township-based busi-ness.

    This misrepresentation provid-ed the suspect with access to con-fidential documents.

    On Sept. 18, the suspect wascharged with uttering a forgeddocument and theft by deception,

    pertaining to the fraudulentcheck. He was also charged withfalsifying records and deceptivebusiness practice pertaining tothe misrepresentation.

    The suspect was already in thecustody of the Burlington CountyJail on an unrelated matter.

    His bail was set at $55,000 no 10percent, and he is waiting for aBurlington County SuperiorCourt hearing.

    On Sept. 25, patrols were calledto a bank-owned, abandonedproperty on Mill Street, wherelights were observed in the interi-or. The property had been bur-glarized two weeks prior to thisincident and was discovered un-secured on this date.

    The interior was checked, andit was discovered that unknownsuspects shattered the glass to akitchen window, caused severalthousands of dollars worth ofdamage to the drywall through-

    out the house, and removed alarge portion of the copper pipingof the residence's plumbing.

    The total loss value is notknown at this time. This incidentis currently under investigation.

    ing the character of our town.Additional commercial ratablesthat complement existing busi-nesses will reduce the tax burdenon residential homeowners. I amconfident, with the work that thiscurrent Council has done so far,that Medford can be a strong, vi-brant community in the comingyears. However, I believe it is im-portant to maintain the stabilityof the current Council in order to

    maintain this course. Every deci-sion I have made so far has been,and every decision I will make inthe future will be, guided by onlyone consideration the best inter-ests of Medford Township.

    Why are you running for coun-cil?

    I am running for Council to re-store economic stability to ourcommunity while at the sametime finding ways to revitalizebusiness, to provide services thatresidents want and deserve, andto restore the sense of pride inour community, which has been

    slowly fading away.Since early 2012, we have be-

    come burdened by a tax increaseof 34.12 percent, while at thesame time we have seen the re-duction or loss of services that

    provide the framework and stabil-ity for a strong community.

    As I have walked door-to-doorwith my running mates, I am

    struck by the similarities of thefrustrations of all of our neigh-bors: high taxes, poor roads, lossof recreation services, failure oflocal Council to cooperate withcounty government and the per-ception of a decreased policepresence.

    I am disheartened when I hearthat long-time residents believethey have no choice but to moveto another community because ofthe high taxes and lack of servic-

    es provided by Medford.I believe that these frustrationsare the direct result of a one-party Council that does not listento differing opinions, embrace in-novative ideas or foster coopera-tive relationships that are neces-sary to build a vibrant communi-ty in these challenging economictimes. Bipartisanship can onlybuild a stronger and better mu-nicipal government for all of us.

    While I understand that wemust live within our means, I be-

    lieve that Council has failed to ex-plore all the ways they could pro-vide valued services to our com-munity without raising taxes.

    As a consultant, I use my skillsevery day to help not-for-profit or-ganizations meet their goalswhile living within their means.As a Council member, I wouldapply those skills to help Medforddo the same. We have limitlesspotential to craft creative solu-tions to restore services, revital-ize our business community andrestore civic pride, but to realizeour potential we must listen tothe voices of all residents, not justa few.

    If elected what would be yourtop priority?

    We need to revitalize all ofMedfords business districts, in-cluding but not limited to the Vil-lage.

    The current Council promisedthat the long-awaited new sign or-dinance would in and of itself

    bring new economic vitality, but Inever believed that claim. Simi-larly, current Councils recentproperty tax incentive legislation,which applies only to a very smallgeographic area, will have limit-

    ed impact.My priorities will include pro-

    viding a more strategic approachto economic development in Med-

    ford.The challenges of bringing

    businesses to Medford are com-plex, so our strategy must be mul-tifaceted. Retail businesses wantcustomers and will only considerbecoming part of a community,which attracts individuals to itsshopping areas.

    Our approach cannot be piece-meal but must be comprehensiveand focused when addressing thecomplex issues, that inhibit busi-

    ness growth in Medford.Not only must we make ourcommunity attractive to potentialbusinesses, but we need to be surethat we are attracting businessesthat will not put a strain on ourresources.

    Finally, we must provide lead-ership, which inspires businessowners, the county and residentsto invest in Medford.

    Why are you running for coun-cil?

    When my husband and I decid-ed to move our family back toSouth Jersey nine years ago, welooked in Medford and all of the

    surrounding towns, including myhometown of Cherry Hill. Wechose Medford because of whatwe saw in the town the sense ofcommunity, the open space andthe feeling that we were tucked

    away from the shopping alongRoute 73, but were still within ashort driving distance of any-thing we could need or want. The

    schools were great, the downtownand neighborhoods were wellkept, and everyone we met wasfriendly.

    Over the last nine years, I'veseen the quality of Medford beginto deteriorate.

    The current Council keeps stat-ing that they need to take a toughstance to determine the needsthat government should provideversus the wants that could beprovided by other entities. Those

    wants, however, are services forwhich we are already paying. Wehave seen our taxes rise, and theservices funded by those taxesfall. In effect, our cost of livinghas gone up as a direct result ofthe cuts. We are now paying pri-vately for services that used to befunded by our taxes.

    I don't feel that the single-partyCouncil, which has run Medfordfor years, adequately representsthe entire population of Medford.I also feel that current Council

    members are too like-minded andare unwilling to think outside thebox. While their concern for pay-ing down the debt incurred by theprevious Republican administra-tion is admirable, they have notconsidered enough creative solu-tions to the challenges we face.They have really done only twothings, raise taxes and cut servic-es.

    As I have walked the neighbor-hoods of Medford, over and over Ihave heard complaints not justabout the high taxes but alsoabout the loss of services. Resi-dents expect more for theirmoney. They feel local govern-ments should be covering some ofwhat the current Council refersto as wants that governmentshould not be providing viataxes.

    No, we don't need a recreationdepartment or open bathrooms inthe local parks or regular bulktrash, leaf or brush pick-up to

    survive, but many people came toMedford believing that thosetypes of services would be provid-ed, as they are in neighboringtowns, and used to be in Medford.We are already seeing people

    leave town because living here isno longer worth the cost.

    I don't feel that I can sit aroundand watch Medford deteriorate

    further. I have visions of mygrandchildren visiting me in thishouse and playing in the Tama-rac lakes, but I can't imagine stay-ing long if my taxes continue torise and my services continue tobe cut.

    I feel that I have the ability tosearch for and find creative solu-tions to Medfords current prob-lems. Having reviewed recent mu-nicipal budgets and other docu-ments, I don't feel that the recent

    crisis was as bad as the currentCouncil claimed it was. If theyhad slowed down debt repayment(through refinancing) rather thanaccelerating it, we could haveavoided many of the recent cutsin services that are already di-minishing our town.

    If elected what would be yourtop priority?

    The first thing I would like todo is reexamine the budget to un-derstand where all of our moneyis going, including the amount we

    are paying toward the debt eachyear. The current Council hassped up the repayment of Med-fords debts at a time when inter-est rates are so low that manytowns are slowing down theirdebt repayment schedules.

    Then, I would look at the budg-et from the bottom up, first con-sidering the services that must becovered, and then looking at waysto cover those expenses withoutincreasing taxes. It is time to lookmore deeply into shared services,grants, getting more competitivebids, and doing more coopera-tive buying (joining with othertowns to negotiate lower pricesfrom suppliers).

    Once the basic needs of all resi-dents were covered within thebudget, I would begin to look tobegin restoring some of the serv-ices that have been cut in the lasttwo years, increasing some of theservices that have been dimin-ished, such as restoring bulk

    trash pick up, increasing brushand leaf pick up, reopening thebathrooms in our parks andmore. And finally, I would imme-

    Stills descendants attend open house

    home, repair it, come back and re-install it and take another sectionwhen he left. Its amazing actslike this that helped get the proj-ect where it is.

    Shawnee boys soccer team dida cleanup at Bob Meyer Park. As aresult, it received a $500 CleanCommunities grant, which wasdonated to the historical society,Giardina said.

    Giardina said the communitycould be tied to a cedar fence,which lines the front of the prop-erty. Multiple volunteers offeredtheir time to remove, install andpaint the fence.

    You dont know how its going

    to happen, but it did. They justwanted to do this, Giardina said.The project touched their heartone way or another.

    According to the historical so-

    ciety, Dr. Still was the son of for-mer slaves. He trained himself inthe healing power of plants andherbs, and succeeded in the prac-tice of medicine beginningaround 1845. In spite of prejudiceand pressure from traditionaldoctors, who rejected herbalismas an unorthodox practice, he ad-ministered herbal remedies to pa-tients of all races. Additionally,the doctor owned land through-out Burlington County, whichwas valued at more than $20,000at the time of his death in 1882.

    Members of the Still family at-tended the open house, includingDr. Stills great-great-great-greatniece Machelle Still-Pettis.

    I started crying here, on theBunning property, just knowingthese people knew my familymembers, Still-Pettis said. Theyhelped each other. Its so unbeliev-

    able.According to Still-Pettis, the

    Still women are strong, hardworkers.

    Her great-great-great-great

    grandmother had 19 children,leaving no room to take any-thing from anyone. Theyre alsoloving. They had 19 children,she said, caring and always will-ing to help someone.

    Its amazing that you can be apart of this tapestry, this history,Still-Pettis said. This is so beau-tiful to see everyone come out andsee progress. Were thankful tothe Bunnings, to everyone.

    We want to create a venuewhere anyone can come to learnabout the township and a manwho overcame hardships, Giar-dina said. Hes so inspirational,and we can take his lessonsthrough life.

    James Randy PaceOccupation: USN retired, Med-

    ford Township CouncilmanVolunteer work: As a retired res-

    ident if I am not working on be-half of the township, I make my-self available to all MedfordTownship civic organizations.

    Why are you running for coun-

    cil?I have always said you dont

    get the government you expect,you get the government you in-spect. After observing how ourtownship was being managed, itbecame clearto me that sit-ting on thesidelines andcomplainingabout how ourproperty taxeswere being

    spent wouldn'tsolve anyproblems.Coming upwith real solu-tions and thenimplementing them was onlygoing to be accomplished bybeing one of the decision makers,which is why I initially chose torun for office. I am very pleasedwith the progress we have madeover the past 18 months, and am

    committed to keeping Medfordfiscally responsible and movingin the right direction for anotherfour years.

    If elected what would be yourtop priority?

    I believe its important thatMedford Townships governmentcontinue on a path of financial re-sponsibility. Measured businessgrowth balanced with the charac-ter of our community will helpreduce the burden of propertytaxes on residents. Expandingpartnerships with civic organiza-tions to provide amenities thatmake and have made Medford thegreat community it is today.

    Chuck WatsonOccupation: I own two small

    businesses. Charles M WatsonCo., an electrical contractingbusiness based in Philadelphia,and Dizzy Pig BBQ and cateringbusiness based in Medford.

    Volunteer work: I participatedin many service projects while be-coming an Eagle Scout in myyouth. I servedas a volunteerfirefighter for24 years and

    am a life mem-ber of theMedford FireDepartmentserving aspresident andbattalionchief. 13 yearsmentoringhigh schoolyouth at Fellowship AllianceChapel in Medford. More than 22years on the board of my home-owners association the Old

    Taunton Colony Club serving astreasurer and president. Servedsince January of 2012 as a Med-ford Township Councilman.

    Why are you running for coun-cil?

    I originally ran for Council be-cause I knew I had the skills tomake a difference. As a lifelongresident, I know the importanceof maintaining the character ofour great town. I attended almostevery Council meeting for about

    three years before deciding to runfor office and heard first handabout our financial problems andknew that my business skills aswell as how I managed my per-sonal finances brought some-

    thing to the table that Medfordneeded. I am running for reelec-tion because I believe that I havemade a positive difference the last20 months as a councilman.

    If elected what would be yourtop priority?

    My top priority would continueto be fiscal responsibility. In myshort term in office, Medford hascome out of financial uncertaintyinto financial stability. I will con-tinue to make sure that Medfordlives within its means and is fis-cally strong. To maintain thecharacter of our town and theservices that we expect, we needto have our financial house inorder. I will continue to look atways to lower our debt or debtpayments, not take on new debtwithout fully researching the ne-cessity, and avoid using one-time-revenue to pay for ongoing ex-penses.

    tion that has turned out to be asuseful as our sidewalks tonowhere.

    The current Council blamesthe state, the county, previouscouncils, but aside from payingdown the debt very quickly, whatis their plan for Medford?

    I have 20 years of experiencevolunteering in Medford on anumber of boards, including 10years as the zoning board chair-man. Ive asked the hard ques-tions of popular applicants andtreated people fairly and respect-fully.

    I have always welcomed ques-tions about decisions Ive madebecause I made every decisionwith every residents interests in

    mind.If I am elected to Council, resi-

    dents will know what their Coun-cil is considering doing. I will beeasily accessible to all con-stituents, and they will know thattheir concerns are important tome and will always being consid-ered.

    If elected, what would be yourtop priority?

    We need a comprehensive planfor infusing capital into our town-ships infrastructure. Reputablebusinesses wont risk opening ina place that may or may not main-tain the surrounding infrastruc-

    ture.I want to see stabilized and in-

    creasing property values. I wantto help create a town where home

    sellers experience bidding warsfor their properties rather thanworry about bad publicity lower-ing the values of their homes.

    I enjoy working in the commu-nity, and with the community. To-gether we can dig in and figureout how to make Medford the goldstandard for connecting historywith business and using openspace to enhance residential andcommercial areas. I want side-walks that go someplace, bikepaths and places to stop along theway.

    Our economic development ef-forts should be focused in sub-stantial part on trying to attractdestination retail businesses(those that draw shoppers from alarger geographic area) to Med-ford. Destination retail business-es will generate new customersfor other existing or new Medfordbusinesses. That sort of synergyis the best way to create thrivingbusiness districts in Medford.

    Other ways to attract morebusinesses to Medford includemore parades and festivals, bet-ter-kept parks with unlocked rest-rooms, better road maintenanceand increased public safety.

    We can do these things withouthigh taxes if we adopt a more rea-sonable debt repayment schedule,vigorously pursue opportunitiesfor shared services, and aggres-sively seek grants from govern-ment agencies and charitablefoundations.

    Our township needs the freshinfusion of ideas that would comefrom a bipartisan Council. A pro-fessional exchange of differentideas will surely result in bettergovernment.
