Zoning Officer / Building Code Official

The Zoning Officer is appointed annually by the Board of Supervisors. The Zoning Officer is responsible to apply the provisions of the Lower Towamensing Township Zoning Ordinance in accordance with its literal terms. In 2004, the Board appointed Duane A. Dellecker to serve as Zoning Officer. He has been re-appointed again this year.

Mr. Dellecker also serves as Building Code Official (BCO) for the township. The BCO is responsible for the administration of and issuing permits under the PA Uniform Construction Code (Act 45 of 1999, as amended).

The Zoning / Building Code Office is located at the Township Municipal Building. Please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Dellecker with any questions you may have regarding zoning & building permits. Appointments are preferred, but open office hours are also available. Please call the Township office to find the most current schedule of zoning office hours. The Township will make every effort to accommodate your needs and schedule when it comes to answering questions and obtaining permits.
