Individuals who are eligible for this exonoration are required to file an exonoration application with the township secretary before January 15 of each year. Each request for exonoration will be reviewed by the Board of Supervisors who will either approve or disapprove the applica- tion for exonoration at a regular meeting of the Board. High school graduates of 1985 will be assessed in the 1986 Per Capita Tax levy. Students, depending upon their income, may also choose to file for an exonoration. The ‘‘Age 65°’ exonoration is available to all residents who will turn 65 during 1986, by furnishing proof of age to the Tax Collector and filing the proper exonoration form with the township office. Residents having any questions are asked to contact Janice Castel- lani, Tax Collector at the Township Building, Monday, Wednesday or Friday from 10 am. to 2 p.m. at 696-3809.

She said business this year was the same or slightly better than in 1984. Most people this year were interested in the moderately priced items. Approximately 75 percent of the customers were persons loyal to the store for years, the other 25 percent new faces. ~ Mrs. Roth, her husband and son work in the store year-round and she said their part-time employees were the same as in 1984. She has mixed emotions about what 1986 will bring. “I can’t begin to predict what our business might be,” she said. “I just hope it stays the same. The state of economy in the country is no longer an indicator of what the future will bring, according to Mrs. Roth. Two restaurant owners surveyed were encouraged by their business in 1985. “Our business was the best it has ever been with the exception of the first part of December,” said Tom Pickett of Pickett’s Charge, Dallas. “We had to increase our staff and now have 32 employees working at the restaurant.” Pickett is not sure what helped his business, but he believes his new sign, cutting down the huge trees around the building made his busi- ness more visible to the public. Those changes plus inside renova- tions attracted customers, in Pick- ett’s opinion. He also lowered his breakfast price which brings in a lot ("LIONEL'S 85th I wor Just a ror— 40 YEARS EXPERIENCE MODERATE RATES FAST SERVICE Discount Prices Mats, Tunnels, i of customers, who later return for lunch or dinner. He has made several changes in his menu and Pickett believes 1986 will be a better year than 1985. Sid Silver of The White Horse Restaurant in Dallas Shopping Center said that 1985 was an excel- lent year for his business. He believes there are more people in the Back Mountain and the fact that his chefs prepare all of their own food is catching on. “We must be doing something right,” said Silver. ‘Because our customers keep coming back. I hope 1986 eontinues to improve.” John Ginochetti of Gino’s Shoe Store said his 1985 sales were about the same as 1984. He said people are putting their money into the elec- tronic items and buying less in the shoe and clothing line. “Competition is so keen that although the volume is great, the net profit is much less. I managed to retain the same number of staff members, but at greater expense,” said Ginochetti. He expects 1986 to be worse due to imports and more and more dis- count stores: ‘“They’re hurting the shoe and garment business,” said Ginochetti. Melba Boudreaux, owner of Melba’s Fashion Nook, in business since September, 1983, said her sales in 1985 were close to those in 1984. “At least 75 percent of my cus- tomers are returnees, the others ANNIVERSARY 1 BUT A TRADITION SINCE 1900 On NEW Lionel, Mt.

Boudreaux added that holiday sales appear to be about the same with the same customers coming back looking for special gift items. Mrs. Boudreaux is hoping the increasing requests she is receiving for fashion shows by various groups, will be a factor in increased business in 1986. As she "did last year, she has to add a part-time employee for the holiday season. Adam Hozempa, Jr., who with his father, Adam, Sr., owns and oper- ates Adam’s Clothes, Back Moun- tain Shopping Center, Shavertown, said business was off a little in 1985. He believes the warm weather in the-Fall hurt Fall sales. ‘People aren’t interested in buying sweaters and heavy jackets when the weather is warm,” said Hozempa. Hozempa also said holiday sales were down from 1984.
