Budget available for review online and at the Harrison Township municipal building
The tentative municipal budget, which is available for review until April 16 at the municipal building and on the township website, raises the Harrison Township tax rate by one cent from both the 2016 and 2017 tax rates.
Last year’s budget was considered flat as there was no increase from 2016.
At the March 19 committee meeting, Mayor Lou Manzo stated the one cent increase translates to 43.6 cents per $100 of assessed property value. This equates to approximately a $34 annual increase for the average assessed home of $341,000.
In total from taxpayers in 2018, the township will collect approximately $6,669,000, a $158,660 increase from 2017.
