About West Rockhill Township
Greetings from the management of West Rockhill Township! We are pleased to provide residents with this website and hope it will be helpful in familiarizing residents with the many opportunities for involvement and current events in the township. West Rockhill Township is governed by an elected, three-member Board of Supervisors. The Supervisors appoint a five-member Planning Commission, a seven-member Parks & Recreation Board, a four-member Conservation Committee and a three-member Zoning Hearing Board to develop and interpret township policy. Currently, there is also a Zoning Ordinance Review Committee, which will be updating our Zoning Ordinance.
As do many other communities, West Rockhill Township depends on volunteers to serve on township boards and committees. This support permits the Board to manage tax dollars, provide required services and adhere to the overall comprehensive plan. The true charm of our rural atmosphere lies in the quaint, small “village” areas. We also hope that our residents will participate in working collectively to retain the unique features and openness that characterizes West Rockhill Township.
