Permits

Permits are required for various activities within the Township.  All driveway, lot and structural construction or alterations require a Permit or Permits issued by the Township in accordance with various Township Ordinances. Permit fees vary based on the nature of the activity, and in some cases, the scope of the construction project.  

Permits must be obtained prior to the beginning of any permitted activity or construction project. Permit applications can be obtained from the appropriate Township Officer.  Please direct all questions to the Township Secretary, Mary Roche Redel at (570) 881-0166.

All Permit Applications can be obtained from the Township Secretary; a few of the most common permit applications are posted here for your convenience.  Completing and submitting a permit application is not permission to begin any permit-only activities.  You must have a Township-issued permit to commence such activities.
