Another year will lend itself to another tax break for Franklin Township residents.

Supervisors on Tuesday granted final adoption of the 2022 budget with no municipal tax rate increase.

Next year’s spending plan will leave the millage rate unchanged at 7.64 mills.

Of that, 6.3 mills is for general purposes; 0.537 for the capital reserve building fund; and 0.800 for the fire hydrant fund for properties within 780 feet of fire hydrants.

Board Chairman Jason Frey noted that the budget was approved with no tax increase, which has been the case in the township for over a decade.

The last time residents saw a tax increase was in 2010, when taxes were raised by 1.5 mills.

Residents did see a $10 increase in their garbage bills in 2020, which supervisors said would equate to an 83-cent per month increase.

That marked the first time garbage rates went up since 2009, and it was done to help the township counter the rising costs of health care, unfunded state mandates, and repairs to older vehicles and trucks.
