Local Tax Hikes 20%+


Alburtis proposes 24 percent property tax hike .. "Council also plans to raise a $10 levy to $52 for people who work in the borough"

Macungie poised to hike taxes 20 percent

Yeah sure.. no problem. The retirees can easily do that with their lucrative 1.5% increase from Social Security.

So let me see if I have this right. Local government and school districts raise taxes 10% or more and some municipalities increase their taxes 20% plus. While those who pay them get reduced hours, increased medical costs and may or may not get a raise.


Anyone else see a problem developing here?
