Part of living in a zoned community is the fact that zoning and building permits must be completed.  Whenever you need a permit or question its necessity you should contact the Zoning Officer, Alan Brokate, at 610.966.3223 to verify this information.

Cost:

The Zoning Officer calculates the fee for your permit at the time of review. Once a permit has been approved the office staff will call you to notify you of the approval and the cost. Permit fees are paid upon permit pickup. The Township accepts cash and / or check; we do not accept credit cards.
