Job Tax Nets Borough
*33,301 In Nine Months
The $10. occupational privilege
(job) tax has netted the borough
$33,301.30 as of September 30,
the Record learned yesterday in
an interview with borough man­ager
George Steedle. This is
equivalent to almost 4 mills in
real estate taxes.
Steedle said he believes the
tax is an “outstanding success”
even though it meant “a great
deal of work for the employees
in the borough office.” He said
the tax is “good” because it is
one that does not penalize our
senior citizens as would addition­al
mills placed on real estate.
Steedle reiterated the above
reason when this reporter men­tioned
that the tax was costly to
collect compared to other taxes.
It cost about 4% to collect the
tax thus far. And, this cost does
not include an employers com­mission
of 2%.
The cost breakdown is esti­mated
because borough employ­ees
time is not allocated. The
costs are: Postage and printing
forms $450.; advertising and
printing copies of the ordinance
$75.; estimated labor costs $750.

total collections at $25,000. On
June 25 this was upped to $37,-

of the extra budgeted amount
was allocated to miscellaneous
accounts with the remainder be­ing
a surplus ending balance of
$10,093. Steedle said this balance

He stated he believes the
total tax take will be very close
to the budgeted $37,500. Employ­ers
have a report period on Nov.

which a tax is due. This must'be
paid by Dec. 30. - . 1 • •
