Twofer Tuesday: Government and Arts

Whether you're going for government or arts, tonight's a good night.

That's because those who are more concerned with town or county budgets can hit either the Township Committee meeting tonight or the Somerset County Freeholders meeting, as both will have budget presentations.  The committee meeting will even have two presentations, since the school budget will be presented then too.

The more artsy will want to know there's a poetry reading at the library tonight—and that the poet is a Hillsborough resident!

Here's what else you need to know:

1. You Need to Know the Township Committee Meets Tonight:   If you can’t get there for the 7:30 start, Patch will have the story in the morning and will tweet anything big.
