The above link is the Lehigh County Tax Millage Sheet fro 2019.  This compares Tax Millage Rates for Lehigh County and notates those with increases from the 2018 rate.

From the Township:

The millage did go from 0.171 to 0.45. Property Taxes within Upper Milford Township have not increased since 2011. That being said the cost of doing business has increased significantly over the last few years. The thought of raising taxes was not taken lightly but it was felt that is was necessary to provide residents with the level of maintenance and Emergency Services that they are accustom to seeing. The Township is taking a proactive approach to infrastructure maintenance planning and Emergency Services, the Board is using this increase to provide that.

2018 Real Estate Tax Revenue = $128,175.00
