We can only hope that all the people who attend the 1 hr meeting on Feb. 12, 2013 will consider all the tax payers in Mullica who are struggling to make ends meet on a day to day basis.  There are a lot of people in Mullica who have wish lists like putting food on the table and paying for utilities and mortgages.
