North East Township Supervisors Pass Local Services Tax

by

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.

Let’s work together to keep an eye on things

  1. Everyone has the right to know what their government is doing.
  2. Transparency is expected in all government meetings and daily operations.
  3. Everyone working for the government works for, and is answerable to, you and me.
  4. All laws, regulations, ordinances, budgets, audits and other public records should be freely available, preferably online, for citizens to examine without special fees and paperwork before they can do so.
  5. When municipalities seek bids for contract work, all bid documents should be available online, free of charge. Printed copies, if requested, should be offered at cost.
  6. Agendas should be posted online a minimum of 3 days before public meetings take place allowing interested citizens an opportunity to hear discussions and offer input on matters important to them.
