Dear Muhlenberg Township Residents – You may notice a slight change to your 2022 Property Tax Bill. This .01 millage increase is a new Ambulance & Rescue Squads tax. This was enacted by the Commissioners to offset the increasing costs of the Muhlenberg Area Ambulance Association and its operations. The MAAA provides lifesaving services to our residents and this small increase in property tax is needed to stabilize their ability to provide services during this difficult economic time. Please note that this is not the same program as MAAA’s annual membership program (Single Person, $40, Household Membership $60) which provides ambulance services free of charge for members. For more information on that program and the Ambulance Association please visit www.muhlems.org.
