2. CITIZEN SERVICE
REQUEST
The Township of Springfield launched a new
citizen service request management system.
Citizens expect a certain level of service and
this new, easy method will inform the town of
citizens’ service request needs.
The web-based software tool is intended to
give Township officials the ability to
adequately manage citizens’ service requests,
which will increase efficiency and shorten
response time. By using the system,
Township officials will be able to accept
service requests quickly and route them
directly to the department responsible for
resolving the issue.
A tracking number will automatically be
assigned to each entry and will instantly be
routed to the responsible department via e-
mail. Citizens can elect to be notified each
time they submit a new request.
The Township is always looking for more
efficient and effective ways to resolve issues
for residents and businesses. Information will
only be used to offer better services and
improve staff efficiency.
The program is sponsored by Investors Bank
of Springfield, NJ.

SPRINGFIELD’S
EMERGENCY
PUBLIC
NOTIFICATION
SYSTEM
The Township of Springfield has a new
emergency public notification system
called Community-Stat.
A public notification system, or Reverse
911, gives Township officials a chance to
reach out to the public in case of an
emergency or for any other important and
timely announcements that affect
Springfield’s residents. This system,
along with our other emergency alert
methods, is designed to get critical
public messages to you in a quick and
effective manner. This does not preclude
you from calling 911 for emergency
information; it simply provides another
opportunity for us to disseminate critical
information to you if and when the need
arises.
This information will remain in the
custody of the Township of Springfield at
all times and it will be used for official
purposes only.
Sign up, be in touch, and stay
informed!!

Pay Your Property
Taxes On-Line
Springfield has now made it easier for
residents and property owners to
conveniently pay property taxes on-
line. The Township now offers the
option to pay property taxes using
Visa or MasterCard credit cards or
checking account ACH Payment (e-
check).
The use of a credit card or an ACH
payment is optional. This is intended
as more convenient way of paying
property taxes rather than mailing or
waiting on line to pay in person at
Town Hall.
On-line payment using ACH payment
(bank debit) is free. There is a credit
card service charge. The fee that is
charged is the cost that is passed onto
the Township from credit card
providers/merchants that must be
passed onto the taxpayer. The
Township does not profit from this
service charge.
If you have any questions, please
contact the Tax Collection Office at
973-913-2204 or 2205.
