Township Budget
The real estate of Summit Township provides the primary township tax base. Properties were assessed in 2001 in an Erie County reassessment. For the 2003 tax year and into the future, real estate taxes are based upon the new assessed value.
Other Summit Township income is derived from State and County funds, including gaming revenue, landfill host municipality fees, licenses and permits, fines and penalties, real estate transfer taxes, some miscellaneous income, and the cash balance remaining from the previous year.
