In a recent article in the Main Line Suburban Life Chris Polites this years chairman of the Easttown Board of Supervisors put a call out to citizens who live and work in Easttown to give advice on the township budget. During the process for this year there was outcry at the suggestion of an earned income tax being implemented. Hundreds tourned out to the board of supervisors meetings. Whilst this was avoided for the current year, by raising property taxes and implementing a new $52 business tax on anyone who works in the township the threat of state budget cuts creating further pain on the Easttown budget for the coming year cannot be avoided.
However, before jumping to conclusions Chris Polites called for local citizens and those who work in the township to contact him at cpolites@eattown.org who desire to serve on a citizens advisory budget group. The group will look at numbers but also at other options as well. Chris Polites expressed his belief that the township ran well but admitted there is always room for improvement.
