Chadds Ford Township – and other Delaware County homeowners
– will see an increase in their county property taxes beginning next year.
County council voted unanimously Dec. 15 to pass a 7.4 percent property tax
increase as part of a $308.6 million budget for 2010.
The budget is $5.6 million more than that for 2009, while
the tax increase to 5.182 mills is expected to bring the average homeowner’s
tax to $680. A mill is a tax of $1
for every $1,000 of assessed value. A property assessed at $100,000 would be
taxed $518.20.
