Springfield Township supervisors met Oct. 13 and reviewed expected 2025 revenues and expenses for the Liquid Fuel and General Funds. The board set a policy that diesel purchases will be paid from the General Fund to simplify Liquid Fuel reporting, and limited Liquid Fuel expenditures to street lighting and the planned seal-coat project; the annual grader payment will be paid from LF checking.
The supervisors budgeted 3% cost-of-living increases for the township secretary/zoning officer and the road crew. They also discussed possible fee increases for items that have not risen in many years, including pavilion rentals, hearing fees and zoning permits, and directed Township Secretary Meredith L. Borstorff to provide the current fee schedule for review. The board estimated about 2,025 tax bills after exemptions and budgeted a $4 payment per mailed tax bill (estimated total about $8,100).
