This chapter shall be known and cited as the "Cecil Township
Zoning Ordinance."
This chapter is adopted pursuant to authority of the Pennsylvania
Municipalities Planning Code, Act of 1968, P.L. 805, No. 247, as reenacted
and amended, and the Second Class Township Code, Act of May 1, 1933,
P.L. 103, No. 69, as amended. Whenever any provision of this chapter refers to or cites
a section of the above acts and that section is later amended or superseded,
this chapter shall be deemed amended to refer to the amended section
or the section that most nearly corresponds to the superseded section.
It is the intent of the Board of Supervisors that this chapter
implement the planning policies adopted by the Board for the Township,
as reflected in the Comprehensive Plan and other planning documents.
While the Board reaffirms its commitment that this chapter and any
amendment to it be in conformity with adopted planning policies, the
Board hereby expresses its intent that neither this chapter nor any
amendment to it may be challenged on the basis of any alleged nonconformity
with any planning document.
