Penn Township Community Open House Survey

Penn Township is in the middle of an important update to its Zoning Ordinance. This document guides how land is used, how property can be developed, and how the community grows over time.

As the township evaluates this ordinance, community feedback is essential. Your input will help ensure that the updated regulations reflect local priorities, protect community character, support economic vitality, and address future needs such as housing, infrastructure, and protection of natural resources. 

Penn Township invites you to participate in this survey to share your experiences, concerns, and ideas. Whether you are a long-time resident, a business owner, or a newcomer to the township, your perspective matters.
