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.
