On Jan. 24, 2013, a disposal ban on covered devices went into effect in Pennsylvania. Under the PA Covered Electronics Recycling Act, from this point forward, no person may dispose of a covered device, or any of its components, with their municipal solid waste. These devices and their components must be properly recycled and may not be taken to, nor accepted by, landfills or other solid waste disposal facilities for disposal. A list of items that will no longer be accepted is as follows: computers, laptops, tablets, computer monitors, printers, keyboards, televisions, etc.
The Borough will provide a FREE drop off to residents for these items, as well as any small appliance with a plug (i.e. vacuum cleaners, small kitchen appliances, hair dryers, etc). The drop off will be open Monday through Friday 8am-5pm at the Public Works Department, 205 Lacey St. Residents must provide proof of residency in order to dispose of their electronics here. The Borough will also hold our annual electronics recycling event on Saturday May 18, 2013 from 9am-1pm in the Municipal Building Lot, 401 E. Gay St.

The Chester Tax Collection Committee (CTCC) recently appointed Keystone Collections Group to serve as the Earned Income Tax (EIT) and Local Services Tax (LST) collector for school and municipal taxing authorities within Chester County. This important change was brought about under Act 32 of 2008. Act 32 requires municipal governments and school districts in all Pennsylvania counties, except Philadelphia, to select a single tax collector to serve the Earned Income Tax collection needs of the political subdivisions within the county. Keystone will officially start EIT and LST collections for the CTCD effective January 1, 2011. This means that Keystone will be responsible for processing payments for the 4th quarter of 2010, as well as the 2010 final earned income tax returns due April 15, 2011. In the next few weeks, individuals and employers will receive detailed instructions and contact information from Keystone to help answer questions and provide taxpayer assistance.
