Please be advised the tax bills that were mailed out last week were incorrectly printed with last year’s millage rate on them. Revised bills will be mailed and should be received by the end of next week. Please disregard the bill dated 2/1/2025 - and pay the amount listed on the REVISED BILL.
The tax rate for 2025 is 17.0 mills v.s. 16.5 mills in 2024.
If you have paid already, you will be responsible to pay the difference. Payments can be made at the address on the bill or you can drop in the secure drop box at Boro Hall or bring in to the office. *Please note we are unable to provide a receipt at the Boro Office.
Any questions, please contact the Donna Shifko - tax collector at 610-266-1165 or the office at 610-264-1504.
We apologize for the confusion and thank you for your understanding.
**EXAMPLE ONLY:
Assessment value: $60k (*this amount can be found on your current bill or on Northampton County property records site under assessed value. There is no average tax amount, as this is very specific based on your property)
2024 taxes at 16.5 mills for every $1k assessed value = $990.00 base rate 2024
2025 taxes at 17.0 mills for every $1k assessed value = $1020.00 base rate 2025
