Burlington County Freeholders are holding a board meeting on
Wednesday, June 24 to consider raising the millage rate that is
designated toward open space. In 2013, Burlington County rolled
back its Open Space tax from 4 cents to 1.5 cents. Weve heard that
the Freeholders are considering rolling the amount back up to 4
cents.

the following trails.
