PETERSBURG – Leon Costello, Upper Township’s tax advisor, counseled Upper Township Committee members, at their April 26 meeting, to hold the final adoption of the municipality’s 2021 budget.
“We believe we will be receiving $1.2 million from Washington from the pandemic stimulus funding recently approved. That would be $600,000 to be used this year and the remaining $600,000 to use next year, although we’re not sure yet what the state will approve as to how we can disburse these monies.
“Let’s take a wait and see approach, and hopefully, we can finalize as soon as possible at an upcoming meeting,” said Costello.
