Message from the
Chairman of the Board of Supervisors

I was honored on January 4th, 2010 by my peers on the Board of Supervisors to be elected to serve another term as chairperson. As we move into the new year, we are committed to moving Hempfield Township forward as we did in the past year. We continue to be proactive in the pursuit of the adoption of a new zoning ordinance and several public works water improvement projects. The Comprehensive Plan Committee, which consisted of eleven (11) Township residents, worked endless hours during several meetings to get the Township to the point of having a new zoning ordinance to consider.

With the size of Hempfield Township and its many land uses and needs, including agricultural, residential, commercial, industrial, it is a huge challenge to undertake. Without the assistance and dedication of the Comprehensive Plan Committee, it could not have been accomplished. The time and dedication of the volunteers on the Comprehensive Plan Committee, Planning Commission, Zoning Hearing Board, Recreation Commission, Local Traffic Safety Advisory Committee, Public Safety Task Force, and the Hempfield Township Municipal Authority is priceless.

I am grateful for this opportunity to serve as Chairman, and look forward to working with all residents in making 2010 a very successful year.

-John Silvis, Chairman, Hempfield Township Board of Supervisors
