All residents are reminded to contact the Code Office at

610-534-4803 for permit information and requirements

before commencing any new construction or alterations.

 

Residents are also reminded that sidewalks, as well as any

common access driveways, must be cleared of snow or ice no

later than twenty-four (24) hours after the snow has

ceased to fall. Piling of snow in the street is strictly prohibited.

 

The Township enacted an ordinance whereby owners of

rental units within the Township are required to secure an

annual certificate of use for each occupied or unoccupied

dwelling unit pursuant to the regulations listed in the ordinance.

 

 

HEALTH DEPARTMENT

Improper management of discarded needles and other sharps

can pose a health risk to the public and our personnel.

 

Township Ordinance requires needles and other sharps be

placed inside a hard, plastic container, such as a detergent bottle,

with a screw on cap or tightly secured lid. Label the container

“Not for Recycling” and place out with your regular trash.

Failure to follow the proper guidelines will result in fines

ranging from $300 to $1,000 per occurrence.

Residents in Ridley Township are required by ordinance to clean

up after their pet while walking their dog along streets or in public parks. Studies by the Center for Watershed Protection has

found that bacteria from dog waste forms a significant part of non-point source pollution in suburban stormwater. 

 

Residents are asked to do their part in keeping our streams and

public areas clean by picking up and disposing of dog waste.
