Mid-week practice
Municipal
website
ranks high
in state
By KATIE MORGAN
The West Windsor Sun
West Windsors municipal web-
site was recognized this month as
being one of the 10 best in the
state.
Graduate students in public
policy at the Monmouth Universi-
ty Polling Institute recently com-
pleted a yearlong project that
evaluated 540 municipal websites
across the state. The websites
were judged based on informa-
tion and content, public partici-
pation aspects and e-services.
I am very proud that we re-
ceived this honor, Mayor Shing-
Fu Hsueh said. We work hard to
keep the public informed through
the website and provide whatever
services we can to make it easy
for people to navigate the site and
understand whats going on in
their government.
Hsueh said he was pleased
with the honor, but felt there was
still room for improvement to the
website.
We could still make it better,
he said. There are things we can

Board of Education unanimously
approves tentative budget
By KATIE MORGAN
The West Windsor Sun
The West Windsor-Plainsboro
Board of Education on March 5
unanimously approved a tenta-
tive total operating budget for the
2013-2014 school year.
The $162.4 million budget in-
cludes a $145.1 million flat total
tax levy.
The tax levy, to be divided be-
tween Princeton and West Wind-
sor, is exactly the same as last
year, said Larry Shanok, secre-
tary of the board and finance.
With the board moving elections
to November, and the public being
unable to vote on the budget, it
was important for us to be sure
the residents felt comfortable
with the decisions we made. The
fact that there is a zero total tax
increase is huge. Last year we
were modest, and this year, we
managed to keep it at zero.
The budget is .88 percent high-
er than last year, with $1 million
allotted to security projects pro-
posed by the district.
The district made a potential
timeline for security enhance-
ments, including exterior cam-
eras, walkie-talkie radios for se-
curity teams, and building moni-
tors, which could begin as early
as this spring.
An updated access door control
system project, which will cost
the district $120,000, is projected
for completion in the fall.
The superintendent has been
meeting with police and munici-
pal and county officials, Shanok
said. The projects will be priori-
tized and happen in order of im-
portance.
Half of the $1 million allot-
ment is slated for recurring costs,

WWFM, The Classical Net-
work, New Jerseys only full-time
classical music radio station, will
present a free concert to honor
the birthday of Johann Sebastian
Bach Thursday, March 21, at The
Princeton Theological Semi-
narys Miller Chapel at 7 p.m.
The evening will feature per-
formances by Tempesta di Mare,
the Philadelphia-based Baroque
Orchestra, and Rene Anne
Louprette, organist at Trinity
Church Wall Street. On-air hosts
of The Classical Network will in-
troduce the artists and provide
commentary throughout the pro-
gram, which will be broadcast
live on WWFM.
The concert will cap a day-long
celebration of the music of J.S.
Bach on WWFM, marking the
Baroque composers 328th birth-
day. The stations hosts will play a
variety of Bachs masterpieces,
including orchestral, chamber,
solo instrumental, choral, vocal
and organ works.
According to Development Di-
rector Diane Guvenis, the concert
will serve as a thank you to the
community for supporting the
station. As part of its spring
fundraising drive, the station is
looking to sign up 600 members at
the $100 level by March 21. Sever-
al long-time supporters have
agreed to donate an additional
$20,000 if this goal is met.
The Classical Network would
like to show our appreciation to
our listener/members. Through
our community support, WWFM
continues to broadcast a diverse
and comprehensive range of
repertoire to Mercer County and
the world, Guvenis said. We are
very excited to host this concert
and bring these remarkable per-
formers to Princeton in celebra-
tion of Bachs birthday.
WWFM, which is celebrating
its 30th anniversary this year, pre-
viously held Bach concerts at
Miller Chapel in 2010 and 2011.
This concert is always a high-
light. It brings together some of
our closest friends at a wonderful
venue on the campus of one of
our broadcast partners for
music by one of the greatest com-
posers in the history of classical
music. It does not get any better
than this for classical music
lovers, WWFMs General Man-
ager Peter Fretwell said.
