Collingdale is the latest Delaware County municipality to consider enacting an earned income tax.<\/p>\n
At the April 6 meeting, council announced it will hold an EIT town hall meeting at 7 p.m. Monday April 13 at the Collingdale Community Center main gym.<\/p>\n
Officials said to bring your pay stub to compare your work location taxes with borough taxes.<\/p>\n
Council is also going to raise some fees. Fees for parking on street will increase when it is street sweeper day and they will be adding a dumpster fee to those who have dumpsters in their yards or on the street.<\/p>\n
Council also took time to honor seven volunteers \u2014 Rev. Perry Messick, Bill Jackson, Stephen Zane, Jean Peterson, Styner Carter, Erin McGlinchey and Colin McCann \u2014 who will benefit from a 2023 resolution giving active fire and fire company administrative members a real estate tax rebate of up to $1,000, with the main requirement being owning your own home in the borough.<\/p>\n
At the April meeting it was noted that council members David Lee Robinson and Keisha Williams were not in attendance. They have not been to a meeting since January.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Collingdale is the latest Delaware County municipality to consider enacting an earned income tax.
