GREEN TREE BOROUGH

What GREEN TREE BOROUGH does

Green Tree Borough is a municipal government entity chartered in 1885 under Pennsylvania state law, serving under 5,000 residents across approximately two square miles in Allegheny County, within the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. The Borough provides the full suite of local government services: police protection (department founded 1908), public works, community development (building permits, code/zoning enforcement, dye/lateral testing), finance and tax administration, refuse and recycling collection (via Waste Management), stormwater management under an MS4 NPDES permit, and recreation programming including the Wilson Park Pool, parks, and seasonal community events such as the Farmers Market, Summer Concert Series, Octoberfest, Independence Day Celebration, and Sportsman's Bash. Emergency services are delivered through partner relationships with the Green Tree Volunteer Fire Company and Medical Rescue Team South (MRTSA), and animal control is jointly administered through the South Hills Cooperative Animal Control arrangement with 13 neighboring municipalities.

The Borough's primary digital offering is the Green Tree Connect mobile application, powered by GOGov, which delivers push notifications, email alerts, and voice-call urgent alerts (e.g., garbage delays, road closures). The official website at greentreeboro.com is built on the Revize platform and serves as the resident-facing portal for permit applications, tax payments, sewage billing, service requests, and agenda/minutes access. Communication with residents is multi-modal: mobile app, email notifications via govoutreach.com, voice messaging (412-275-4930), quarterly newsletter, and Facebook/X/Reddit social channels. Capital projects underway in 2025–2026 include the Columbia Gas pipeline replacement along Greentree Road, the 2026 Road Paving Program, and the Wilson Pool Reconstruction Project.

Revenue mechanics reflect a typical municipal model: property taxes, earned income taxes, and a schedule of fees for services. Published fees include pool passes (resident individual $65, family plan $150; non-resident individual $200, family $400), Evidence of Compliance (dye/lateral) applications at $110 with a 3% card-processing surcharge, Summer Recreation Program ($40/child resident, $80/child non-resident), military banner program ($85), Octoberfest vendor fees, and $50 American Legion memorial bricks. Pool parties rent for $300 plus $5/additional guest. The Borough does not disclose aggregate revenue figures and operates with approximately 8 listed staff in a lean, shared-services-oriented structure.
