The Uwchlan Township Board of Supervisors has approved an ordinance to hold a referendum on introducing an open space tax. The referendum question will be included in the November general election ballot. If voters approve it, the open space tax would add 0.25% to the earned income tax (EIT), raising it from 1% to 1.25%. The new tax would be paid by township residents only, and the township estimates it would raise between $2.5 million and $3 million each year, which would be used for acquiring, protecting and conserving open space.
