Borough Of Charleroi

What Borough Of Charleroi does

Charleroi Borough is a municipal government entity incorporated in 1891 and located along the Monongahela River in Washington County, Pennsylvania, approximately 25 miles south of Pittsburgh. It operates under a council/manager form of government with a seven-member Borough Council and an elected Mayor (Gregg Doerfler, sworn in 2022), with Joseph Manning serving as Borough Manager. The borough serves a population of approximately 3,940 residents and a small base of local businesses within its statutory boundaries, providing core public services including police protection, public works, sanitation/garbage collection, code enforcement, parks and recreation, and stormwater management.

The borough's underlying technology is conventional small-municipal infrastructure: a WordPress-based website (charleroiboro.org) serves as the primary information and digital service portal, supplemented by an NPS-hosted online payment system for tickets, ordinance fines, and utility payments, the ecode360 platform for online ordinance access, and Muni-Link software for quarterly sanitation billing. In 2020, the borough restructured sanitation services by bringing billing and collection in-house using Muni-Link, replacing a prior external provider. Resident engagement is also supported by a Facebook page and bimonthly council meetings.

The borough's revenue model is non-commercial and consists of three streams: (1) property and municipal taxes collected from residents and businesses, (2) service fees including quarterly sanitation billing with a 2% early-payment discount and a 5% senior citizen discount (stackable to 7%), plus application and permit fees, and (3) fines and ordinance violation penalties processed through the online payment system. The borough does not disclose revenue figures publicly. It collaborates with Washington County, PA DEP, PennDOT, Charleroi Area School District, the Mon Valley Chamber of Commerce, and the Charleroi Fire Department as core operational and regulatory partners.
