Permit Procedure during COVID-19 Pandemic

May 11th, 2020

Although the Township building is currently closed to the public, Township staff is committed to providing permit processing for homeowners and contractors.  We are reviewing applications, issuing permits and performing inspections at this time.  All permit applicants are required to provide written acknowledgement that compliance with the PA Guidance for Businesses in the Construction Industry will be maintained.  The acknowledgement form and the PA Guidance information will be provided to applicants.  

Permit applications are available on the Township website.  Please complete the applications and email them along with any plans to the Township. Staff will review and advise via email of any additional items that are needed.  Payment for permits can be made by credit card after the review process is complete. For submission of special projects or plans larger than 11 x 17, the rear door of the Township building will be open Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 4:30 pm for no-contact drop off.  If you would like to discuss your submission, please contact Planning and Zoning Director Dave Kuhns at dkuhns@uppermakefield.org.

Please take all precautions to stay safe including wearing of masks and maintaining social distancing. We look forward to a more personal process in the future and thank you for your patience during this time.
