During 2012, Tredyffrin will review the services provided by a different Township department each month at a Board of Supervisors public meeting, as well as revenue sources available to pay for those services. The goal is to engage in public dialogue that will lead to goals for the 2013 budget that begins in the fall. To view the schedule of discussions and the General Fund revenue trend from 2009-2014 as discussed at the meeting on January 23rd, please visit our finance page.

Tredyffrin Township has introduced a zoning amendment to develop an overlay district in the Trout Creek Watershed. The overlay district is intended to encourage redevelopment on large properties in the Trout Creek Watershed that will include stormwater facilities to better manage runoff. The Township has conducted studies to evaluate and develop recommendations to improve the condition of the Trout Creek Watershed. The zoning amendment is part of the implementation effort. This amendment has been reviewed and revised by both the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors at respective public meetings, and the Public Hearing for the Trout Creek Overlay District ordinance and accompanying map has been continued to the Board of Supervisors meeting on Monday, February 27th, 7:30 pm in the Township Building.
