Pottstown Borough Council will vote on the 2026 budget and tax ordinance at its Monday, Dec. 8, meeting. The proposed ordinance sets the 2026 real estate tax rate at 15.601 mills — up from the current rate of 15.118 mills, but less than the 15.871 mills that was proposed in October. The proposed increase will amount to an additional $48 for each $100,000 in assessed property value. The proposed 2026 budget is available on the Pottstown Borough website.
