Planning Commission

Overview

The Planning Commission serves in an advisory capacity to the Township Board of Trustees concerning land use and land division within the Township. In addition to preparing and periodically updating the Township’s comprehensive Master Land Use Plan, Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map documents, the Planning Commission also reviews all applications for re-zoning, special land use and site plan review.

Meeting Schedule

Members of the public are encouraged to attend all monthly and special Planning Commission meetings. In general, monthly Commission meetings are held the first Monday of each month in the main meeting room of the Township Hall, beginning at 6:30 PM. Please check the calendar to confirm the next meeting date.

Membership

Commission members are recommended by the Township Supervisor and appointed by the board collective and are intended to represent a cross section of the Township population in terms of geographic, occupational and philosophical perspectives. Persons interested in serving on Planning Commission should contact the Supervisor. The term of appointment for a Commission member is typically three years.
