Every year, Borough Council must pass a budget for the upcoming fiscal year. Borough fiscal years are the same as calendar years. By law, the budget must be balanced, meaning anticipated expenditures do not exceed anticipated revenues. The Borough Manager is responsible for proposing a budget for council consideration. This is commonly referred to as the Manager's Budget Message. The Manager's Budget Message is a comprehensive budget proposal, that encompasses all ten (10) of the Borough's fund budgets. The Borough's ten (10)  funds are:

  • Fund 01 General Fund (Operating Budget)
  • Fund 03 Fire Fund
  • Fund 04 CDBG Fund
  • Fund 05 Company K Memorial Fund
  • Fund 18 Capital Projects Fund
  • Fund 23 Debt Service Fund
  • Fund 30 Capital Reserve Fund
  • Fund 35 Liquid Fuels Fund
  • Fund 40 Revolving Loan Fund
  • Fund 66 Eichelberger-Stahle Charitable Trust Fund

Refer to the Manager's Budget Message for each fiscal year for a detailed narrative of the Borough's budget.
