Board of Supervisors

The township code and other state legislation also permit the Board of Supervisors to enlist the capabilities of its citizenry through formation of authorities, boards and commissions.  Such bodies allow the governing body to draw upon citizens with particular expertise and to directly involve citizens in their government.  Some of the more common authorities, boards, and commissions operating in Second Class Townships are water and sewer authorities, planning commissions, park and recreation boards, zoning hearing boards, shade tree commissions, and boards of health.

SUMMARY:

Local government increases in complexity with each passing day.  Citizens expect effective and efficient services, and federal and state governments are placing ever more responsibility at the local level.  The successful operation of a township, borough, town, or city requires the time and effort of many people.

To better explain its complex governmental functions Lower Paxton Township offers several educational and informational services.  These services range from televised meetings of the Board of Supervisors; distribution of a newsletter; and, of course, this web site.
