To comply with State Laws, Township Supervisors sometimes have to make unpopular decisions.

A farmer wants to set up shop next to your new dream home, an adult bookstore wants to open in your neighborhood or maybe a Wal-Mart wants to locate to the area,

“The township supervisors should just say NO” – It’s that easy, right? Well, not really.

When making land use decisions, township supervisors must comply with all state and federal laws like anyone else or face the consequences. In other words, townships must set aside land for necessary and controversial uses, and no matter how much residents may protest, township supervisors have very few options when faced with an unpopular use; If the applicant complies with state and local laws, the township must allow it.
