The Township is now resuming all in-person meetings. Each meeting will also be broadcast livestream via Zoom and pre-registration is required for important security reasons. Residents are encouraged to attend in person if they want to offer public comment as it is not guaranteed that public comment will be available to virtual attendees due to technical limitations. Please note that in keeping with CDC and Pennsylvania Department of Health Guidelines since Chester County is classified in the "substantial" COVID-19 transmission category, at this time masks are required for all individuals entering the Township Building regardless of vaccination status. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we adjust back to resuming normal operations. Important Message About Real Estate Taxes Keystone Collections Group has notified the Township that recently some residents may have received duplicate real estate bills. Keystone experienced a printing error which caused this mistake. Please be sure to only pay your property tax bill one time and ignore the duplicate bill. If you have any questions regarding your bill or online payment options, please call Keystone toll free (866) 539-1100. Important Road Closure Message – Sheeder Road The Sheeder Road Bridge over branch French Creek was closed on August 20, 2021, due to severe undermining of the near and far stone masonry abutments, a result of a heavy rainstorm. The extent of the repairs required to reopen the Sheeder Road bridge necessitates that the project be performed by a qualified general contractor. To accelerate the repair operation, the Sheeder Road bridge has been added onto an active PennDOT group bridge contract that is currently in construction. Loftus Construction, Inc., will repair the Sheeder Road bridge. The contractor will install a concrete subsurface floor to reinforce the foundation beneath the structure’s support abutments. Construction is scheduled to begin the first week of November and is expected to finish in late November, weather permitting. Sheeder Road will reopen to traffic following the completion of the repair project.
