Fitzpatrick sues to force Democrat off Bucks County’s election board

On a gray morning in Doylestown, the kind of county seat where campaign signs still lean against porch rails long after they should have come down, a lawsuit treated a local election board as a question of fitness for public trust. U.S. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick has asked a court to force Democratic Commissioner Diane Ellis Marseglia off the panel that helps oversee voting in Bucks County. The Fitzpatrick election board fight is local in its paperwork and national in its temperature, arriving as Pennsylvania again prepares to count ballots that can shape control of Congress. Residents who usually ignore board agendas are suddenly reading them.

Somerville library controversy takes another twist

SOMERVILLE - The Somerset County Library System is pushing back on a claim by Mayor Brian Gallagher that it engaged in a "false narrative" about the closing of the Somerville branch. In a statement, the Library System said it had "prioritized transparent and direct communication" throughout the process and had created a webpage to keep residents informed about the situation. The Library System also said that the decision to close the facility on West End Avenue next to Borough Hall on July 31 was "not driven solely by environmental health concerns" but also because it was "functionally inadequate for delivering services" since the closing of the lower level in August 2025. "The situation extends well beyond the presence or remediation of mold," according to the statement. "I'm not going to get into a verbal contest with them," Gallagher said, adding he was looking forward to "re-engaging" with Library System officials after Nov. 30. "We believe that building should be ready for reoccupation shortly," Gallagher said at the Nov. 2 Borough Council meeting, adding, "not that there was anything wrong with it to begin with." Earlier: Somerville library could reopen soon after months-long closure Peter Bromberg is retiring as executive director

Wrightstown eying 2027 budget with no property tax hike – Bucks Round-Up – November 10, 2026

Wrightstown eying 2027 budget with no property tax hike. Wrightstown Township supervisors are considering a 2027 budget that would keep the municipal property tax rate unchanged at 13.5 mills. The proposed spending plan includes $2.75 million for township operations, $443,000 for road repaving in the Wrenwood development, and $1.2 million for a conservation easement to protect private property from future development. The budget also sets aside $355,000 for a state-mandated Anchor Run stream restoration project intended to reduce sediment erosion into the Neshaminy and Delaware rivers. Grants would cover most of the project’s cost. Police coverage, contracted through Newtown Township, will cost Wrightstown $1.08 million next year, a five-percent increase. Supervisors are expected to discuss the proposal on Monday and could vote to advertise it for adoption. A final vote could take place on December 7 following a public hearing. At the proposed rate, a property assessed at $75,000 would owe approximately $1,012.50 in annual township property taxes. County and school taxes are separate.
