BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS
The three-member Board of Supervisors are elected officials who oversee the
operations of the Township. They are there for your convenience. If you
have a problem that may need their attention, they can be reached at the Township Building during the week or in the
evenings or on weekends in their homes. If you would like something to be
taken under consideration, please submit it in writing, and they will act
upon it as soon as possible. Their powers as Supervisors are vested in them
through the Second Class Township Code. The Board of Supervisors is
empowered to appoint professionals to assist them in the operation of the
Township and to furnish advice and counsel on technical matters. In
addition to overseeing the township, they appoint the various members to
all the Township committees, commissions, and boards. They welcome anyone
