The mission of the Finance Department is to effectively manage and safeguard all financial resources so that East Goshen Township will be able to adequately fund and maintain the services and public facilities desired by its residents. The Finance Department is responsible for collecting, recording, and investing all revenues due the Township, and for disbursing Township funds in accordance with the annual budget as approved by the Board of Supervisors.
Long Range Planning
The Long Range Financial Forecast provides a current and long-range financial assessment of revenues, expenditures, fund balance and emergency reserves. The primary objective is to provide the Board of Supervisors and the community with a financial forecast and identify any significant issues that may need to be addressed in the annual budget development process. This analysis is centered on the Township’s General Fund because it is the primary operating budget for tax supported municipal services. It is important to keep in mind that a forecast is not a budget. However if future deficits are projected then the forecast allows time to take corrective action to ensure finances remain stable.
