Meet a Member of Your Township: Kim Wolverton 🌟
If you’ve ever called about a missed trash pickup, a pothole, or had questions about parks or recycling, chances are, you’ve spoken to Kim Wolverton.
As the Administrative Assistant for the Public Works Department, Kim is the friendly voice on the other end of the phone and the first face you see when you visit the office. She’s been helping Bordentown Township residents for nearly 21 years, and she’s often the one making sure your concerns are heard and addressed.
Outside of work, Kim loves soaking up summer pool days with her husband Chuck and their two German Shepherds, Gunner and Mila. You might also find her out at a gift auction with friends, enjoying some well-deserved fun.
Say hi the next time you call Public Works -- you’ll be glad you did. 😊
We’ve received the final tax rate and property tax bills will be mailed next week.
The due date to avoid interest is September 9 -- but you can view your amount due online now.
Thanks for your continued patience, Bordentown! 🙏

The award may also be given posthumously.
Let’s come together to recognize those who have gone above and beyond—both in service to our nation and here at home.
