Dear Residents:
Germantown is best described as a vibrant and secure community that is a great place to live, raise a family or retire. I believe volunteers are what make Germantown such a great place to live! Most every organization and taxing district of Germantown is based on volunteers. Without those volunteers, the Village on a whole would suffer. Thank you to all those who give their time! I look forward to the future and believe Germantown has many good things in store!
