At a special supervisors meeting held November 25th, the North East Township supervisors voted to raise the local services tax from $10 per year to $52 per year as detailed in the new ordinance. The change will apply beginning January 1st, 2015.
Also, the supervisors stated they received four bids for the JCB 215-S backhoe and none were as high as the trade in value, so they voted to reject the bids and trade in the current backhoe as part of the purchase of a new one.
