*Incumbent
Shaler Township's last property tax increase was 2009 and before that it was in 1988 when Governor Tom Corbett was a commissioner in Shaler Township. The millage rate is 3.05.
All 4 incumbents voted for the tax increase in 2009. For how many people are upset about taxes, I find it surprising how many local candidates don't have candidates running against them after they have made a vote to increase taxes. Where is the Democratic Party in Shaler Township that they can't find candidates in 3 races.
