Planning and Zoning

The Planning and Zoning personnel administer all new development and homeowner improvements in the township.

Zoning

Every home addition, deck, patio, fence, pool, driveway, shed or similar improvement will require a zoning permit. The Zoning officer will review each application for township regulations regarding front, rear, side yard setbacks, impervious surfaces and building heights.
