Summary
The Bradford County Commissioners adopted Resolution No. 2026-02 on Jan. 22, 2026, increasing the flat fee charged to taxing bodies for preparation and mailing of tax notices from $0.15 to $0.25 per taxable parcel, citing cost increases and authority under 72 P.S. § 5511.9.
The Bradford County Board of Commissioners adopted Resolution No. 2026-02 on Jan. 22, 2026, increasing the flat fee charged to taxing districts for preparation and mailing of tax notices from $0.15 to $0.25 per taxable parcel.
The resolution cites the Local Tax Collection Law, 72 P.S. § 5511.9, as the authority for passing the fee and states the flat fee had not been increased in more than 10 years and no longer covers postage and printing costs. The resolution includes standard severability and repealer language and states it will become effective as provided by law.

The change will increase the per-parcel charge billed to taxing bodies for the county's preparation and mailing of tax notices to $0.25.
The resolution was presented as part of the commissioners' regular business agenda; no public hearing or formal debate over the resolution text is recorded in the minutes supplied.
