West Chester Township's Administration presents an annual operational budget recommendation to the Township Board of Trustees each January for consideration. This budget proposal is based upon input from all Township departments and includes revenue predictions based on multiple variables, including the market and industry standards.

West Chester Township uses data to make strategic decisions about community operations and shares information transparently through DIG – Data Informed Government, providing the community with access to explore key data.

The operational budget represents activities from 10 funds – General Fund, four separate Road Funds, Cemetery Fund, PIE (Public Information & Engagement) Fund, Police Fund, and Fire and EMS Funds. The General Fund includes activities from Administration, Human Resources, Community Development, Community Services, Finance, Parks, Information Technology and General Street Lighting.

The operational budget does not represent individual expenditures, but instead is a detailed illustration of expected expenditures by account code assigned to specific budget priorities which are set by the Board of Trustees.

The Permanent Appropriation Resolution is less detailed, but serves as the official budget of the Township.
