Westmoreland commissioners blame past fiscal neglect in approving 32.5% tax hike

Westmoreland County Commissioners (from left) Ted Kopas, Sean Kertes and Doug Chew discuss Thursday’s vote to approve a 32.5% property tax hike for 2024.

A 32.5% property tax increase will help balance Westmoreland County’s 2024 budget and will allow the county to preserve some of its fiscal reserves, commissioners said.
