1. Growth of the Community: More and better services for an increased population.
2. Frustration with existing government: the lack of responsiveness to citizens needs.
3. Perceived lack of representation: People feel they are not being represented adequately.
4. Political Control: Lastly, but certainly not least is what we are presently experiencing in Gloucester. I quote, \”The desire by political factions which are \”out\” of office to use a change of government campaign to enhance their position. The history of change in New Jersey communities is marked by frequent demands for municipal reorganization by the \”outs\” since major change in charter results in all municipal offices being vacated and new elections being held.\” (sound familiar?)
