As a partner at BGA&F, Barsz has played a vital role in advising clients across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Washington, D.C. His municipal services leadership and financial expertise have been recognized through various prominent appointments.

In October 2012, Barsz was appointed by the Pennsylvania Governor to serve as Chairman of the Pennsylvania State Tax Equalization Board (STEB), a position confirmed by the Pennsylvania Senate. His 2017 reappointment by Governor Wolf reflects the trust and confidence placed in his abilities.

Under Barsz’s leadership, the firm serves as real estate tax collectors for Upper Providence Township and Sharon Hill Borough, Delaware County, among others. His dedication to education and community involvement is evident in his long-term service as Treasurer of the Foundation of the Delaware County Chamber of Commerce, a role he held for over a decade.

“We are honored to announce Peter’s appointment to the Drexel Neumann Academy Board of Directors,” said William B. Gowie, CPA, MT, Managing Partner at BGA&F. “Peter’s decades of experience in public service and his unwavering commitment to education and the community will be a tremendous asset to the Academy.”
