Supervisors: No New Taxes

The Upper Southampton Township Board of Supervisors unanimously adopted the township's 2013 budget Tuesday evening.

The budget keeps the real estate tax rate at 21.88 mills, the same as for 2012; trash collection fees will also remain unchanged.

Supervisors also voted to approve a new fee schedule proposed by the parks and recreation board Tuesday evening. This will change the rate schedule for the rental of township facilities. 

The new schedule does not account for the time of the proposed rental (i.e. weekday vs. weekend) and instead charges one hourly rate for residents and another for non residents.
