Trustees adopt 2025 permanent appropriations and authorize transfers between township funds
Summary
Board adopted Resolution 02-2025 certifying the township's 2025 permanent appropriations and authorized fund transfers for road and bridge, cemetery and sustainable infrastructure funds.
The West Chester Township Board of Trustees approved Resolution 02-2025 on Feb. 25, adopting and certifying the township's permanent appropriations for 2025 and authorizing transfers between funds.
Township staff explained the resolution follows the temporary appropriations adopted in December and incorporates the 2024 cash carryover. The resolution authorizes transfers from the general fund to the road and bridge fund and to the cemetery fund, and from the sustainable infrastructure fund into the road and bridge fund. Trustees said they expect to make occasional adjustments later in the year as actual revenues and expenditures become clearer.
The motion to adopt the permanent appropriations and the described transfers passed by roll-call vote.
Why it matters: Adopting permanent appropriations and completing interfund transfers sets the township's budget authority for the year and enables staff to spend against authorized accounts for roads, cemetery maintenance and infrastructure projects.
Background: Temporary appropriations allowed the township to operate at the start of the year; this resolution finalizes the amounts using carryover and updated estimates.
Next steps: Staff may bring future appropriation adjustments during the year as revenues and expenditures are realized.
