Hopewell Borough Council adopts $3.54M budget for municipal operations in 2021 Members of the Hopewell Borough Council adopted a $3.54 million municipal budget to fund the borough’s municipal operations for 2021. Council President Charles Schuyler Morehouse, Councilman Chris Fossel, Councilman David Mackie and Councilwoman Samara McAuliffe voted “yes” on the budget’s adoption during a virtual council meeting on May 6. Councilman Ryan Kennedy and Councilwoman Debra Stuhler were absent from the meeting. “The budget represents a penny tax rate increase from 2020. 2020 was a flat tax rate year, the first one in decades,” Borough Administrator Michele Hovan said during the meeting. “We are using about three pennies in surplus to put this together. We needed to use a little bit of the surplus to keep the tax increase soft. That is the same path we will be on for a little while.”
