Smart, Responsible, and Efficient – Bernards Township Sets the Standard

When it comes to managing your tax dollars, Bernards Township gets it right.

This powerful infographic tells the story. Over the past 18 years, the Township’s municipal tax levy has increased only 27.27%, compared to the state average. That’s responsible, steady governance that respects your wallet.

While other towns have ballooning debt and tax burdens, Bernards Township maintains low taxes per capita and carries zero municipal debt—a rare achievement. Even more impressive? The Township’s municipal reserves per capita ($672.94) are higher than the AAA-rated municipal average.

Your tax dollars are being put to smart use. In 2024, only 15% of your tax bill goes to the Township. The rest is divided between schools, the county, and the library. Yet, despite receiving a small share, your local leaders are doing more with less—delivering top-tier services without overburdening taxpayers.

David Tancredi and Bill McMahon are committed to continuing this tradition of fiscal excellence. Let’s keep Bernards Township strong, solvent, and smart.
