On Wednesday night, the White Township Supervisors approved the 2022 budget.
The budget contains no property taxes for township residents and no changes to any fees. The budget came to $10,247,349 in expenditures, and left a $1,290,000 deficit, which will be filled using the township’s cash reserves. Township Manager Milt Lady called the budget process this year “intriguing”.
In other business, the township supervisors approved the deer management program, which will start next year. The program has changed from prior drafts, removing the $35 fee and the requirement that a doe be taken before a buck is taken. The board also authorized recreation director Ryan Shaffer to accept an offer from the Penn State Cooperative Extension to have them perform a deer study for the township at no cost. This will be done prior to deer season and will provide the township supervisors with deer population numbers before archery season starts.
The supervisors also approved the formation of the White Township Stewardship Committee, which was formerly known as the woodlot management plan subcommittee. The committee’s 18-month timeline was approved, but no new members were recommended by the township staff.
