Wronski Letter

[Citizen]

Bill,

Thanks for posting the letter to the editor from Mr. Wronski concerning warehouse agony.

I am puzzled by his comment that South Middleton residents pay no local income taxes. I pay a local wage tax of 1.6% - isn't this a local income tax in lieu of the occupation taxes we used to pay?

the citizen has mixed up income taxes with real estate taxes. South Middleton Township has a 0% real estate tax. The local income tax is split between the Township and the School District with the majority going to the schools.
