Budget Survival Guide
Thursday, August 13, 2026 • 10:00 AM Eastern Time
Budget season is here… Is your township ready?
Join us for our next ITA Township Talk on Thursday, August 13 at 10:00 AM ET. The 2027 budget year will be unlike any we’ve experienced — and this session is built to help you get ahead of it.
Between the new Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) requirements, Local Income Tax (LIT) changes, SEA 270 merger considerations, Growth Appeals, mandatory trustee training requirements, and other legislative changes, township officials have a lot to prepare for. Abby Parker, CPA with C.L. Coonrod & Co. will walk members through the key budget issues every township should be planning for now, with practical, plain-language guidance to help you confidently prepare your 2027 budget.
