The Board of Supervisors of East Nottingham Township hereby ratifies
the existence of a Planning Commission in the Township for more than
30 years and additionally establishes the organization of a Planning
Commission under the provisions of the Pennsylvania Municipalities

Act 170 of December 21, 1988, P.L. 1329, 53 P.S. § 10101
et seq.
2.
The Planning Commission shall consist of seven members, all of whom
shall be citizens of the Township of East Nottingham, Chester County,
Pennsylvania.
3.

that stagger procedure. In the event of a vacancy other than by a
conclusion of term, the governing body shall appoint a member to fill
the unexpired term of any vacancy.
4.
The Planning Commission shall at the request of the governing body have the powers and duties as established by the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code as cited above and the East Nottingham Township Zoning Ordinance [Chapter 27] and the East Nottingham Township Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance [Chapter 22].
