View Full Record
The highest-priority permits, legislation, and civic activity — pulled from today's public records.
Trustees approved a 2026 paving package covering Jeanne Anne Lane, Pondview Drive, Cathair Lane, and Garberdale Square, while also scheduling a public hearing on zoning changes later that month.
After a French Hill Road stop-work order, trustees emphasized that residents should clear additions and new construction with the zoning inspector first, especially in one of the county's few zoned townships.
Lawrence Township opened the year by certifying responsibility for 40.184 miles of public roads, reappointing Board of Zoning Appeals members, and reviewing generator service and equipment grant needs.
Lawrence Township's transient vendor application requires solicitors and temporary sellers to register with the clerk, pay a $75 fee, and operate under a permit term capped at six months.
Lawrence Township trustees urged Towpath Trail users to wear blaze orange during deer hunting season — a practical safety reminder as recreational trail use expands and active hunting continues on adjacent lands in the township.
The township released updated 2026 driveway application procedures — covering culverts, grading, and setbacks for residential and agricultural properties. Residents making changes to road-adjacent driveways must file with the township before breaking ground.
Lawrence Township's public road excavation permit covers utility cuts, culvert replacements, and any digging within the road right-of-way — a requirement that keeps rural road infrastructure protected as development activity increases in the township.
