TEMPORARY 3% HIKE (NJ S4111) June 12 - July 21." A confused female customer holding a credit card and a "Secaucus Locals" tote bag looks at a concerned, balding deli counter worker who points toward the register. The cash register shows a receipt with a "Meadowlands Tax 9.6%" line item. In the background, a window looks out onto a Secaucus street, featuring a "Meadowlands Soccer Fever" poster.
