Welcome to the Township of West Amwell

This year West Amwell Township was dealt a perfect financial storm. Our state aid was reduced by $306,000 and our reserve has been drastically depleted so we were only able to use $150,000 from that source vs. 480,000 last year. Health insurance costs have increased by 20% or about $40,000. These 3 items alone account for $676,000 in budget costs.

We managed to cut our usually meager budget by $430,000 from last year. In order to balance this year's budget an increase of $141,000 was needed. This works out to a tax increase of just over 2 cents per hundred, from about 19 cents to about 21 cents. Although we have one of the lowest rates in the county of all towns with a police force, we are still not happy with this necessary tax increase.
