Parks Facility and Field Use Packet
Prevent Stormwater Pollution
Precipitation from rain or melting snow that flows over the ground creates stormwater runoff. Surfaces like streets, driveways, and sidewalks prevent runoff from being absorbed into the ground. Stormwater runoff flows into storm drains or directly into bodies of water.
Stormwater runoff can pick up chemicals, debris, dirt and other pollutants that will contaminate our water. It is a common misconception among residents that stormwater is treated before it reaches the waterways. This assumption is false, and every thing picked up by the runoff empties into our natural waterways.
By practicing healthy household habits residents can limit the pollution dumped into our storm drains, which empty into the waterways. Listed below are ways people can limit stormwater pollution.
- Use fertilizers sparingly and sweep up driveways, sidewalks, and roads.
- Never dump anything down storm drains.
- Compost your yard waste.
- Direct downspouts away from paved surfaces.
- Take your car to the car wash instead of washing it in the driveway.
- Check car for leaks, and recycle motor oil.
- Pick up after your pet.
To learn more about stormwater management, please visit these Web sites below.
Annual Township Budget
Review the 2026 Preliminary Budget.
Montgomery Township staff has prepared this budget report to provide a more in-depth picture of our operations and proposed capital projects and purchases.
At its core, the budget is the foundation for what we do, and the services we provide daily. It is built on assumptions about our operating expenses and the various revenue sources that fund them. These assumptions are based not only on recent history, but on calculated projections about the upcoming year. It is prepared with the involvement of all departments and key staff and reveals details regarding the areas of public service prioritized by the Board of Supervisors including:
- Public safety with an accredited Police Department which now has the distinction of being a Premier Agency, one of 10 in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
- A paid and volunteer fire department providing 24/7 coverage to our township and assisting neighboring municipalities when needed.
- A Public Works department responsible for the maintenance of Township parks, our facilities, roads (including snow removal), traffic signals, and stormwater management facilities.
- Parks and Recreation which many residents and prospective residents view as important to their quality of life. We continue to plan for renovations to existing ones including Fellowship and Whistlestop Parks and have been awarded grants from the Commonwealth of PA to aid our efforts.
Our job as Township employees is to ensure the day-to-day operations are run efficiently, ethically, and transparently, solidifying my belief that local government is the most responsive and responsible form of government, as it directly impacts the daily lives of Township residents and businesses.
Thank you for your interest and for taking the time to read this document.

Road Projects
The following is the proposed schedule for the 2024 Road Projects
The following is the proposed schedule for the various roads that are budgeted to be milled and overlaid. Due to fluctuation in asphalt pricing and budgetary constraints, the paving of some roads may be deferred to a later date. Should any changes to this schedule be required, we will send out a notice in advance.
The hours of operation will be approximately 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and may change, as necessary.
The project is scheduled to begin in early-July and be completed by early-August.
The following is the list of roads to be milled and overlaid:
- White Pine Drive
- Addison Lane
- Sparks Circle
- Country Lane
- Magdalena Lane
- Manor Drive
- Terwood Lane
- Wentworth Drive
- Broad Acres Road
- Blue Jay Way
- Gordon Lane
- Schreiner Drive
- McLaughlin Road
- Claremont Drive (Upper State Road to County Line Road)
During the project, your street will be closed except for local traffic and emergency vehicles. During the milling and paving of your street we are requiring that all cars be parked in their driveways. This will assist us in completing this project in a timely manner. Due to extreme temperatures of the material, it is recommended that you keep children and pets away from the street area where the paving process is taking place. Please avoid driving your vehicle on this material during the placement of blacktop or crack sealer material to avoid damage to your vehicle. We will not be held liable for any resulting damage.
***Each property owner should check their mailbox front to ensure that it is a minimum of 7 inches behind the face of the curb, which is within federal postal regulations. Prior to the start of the paving project, the homeowner should reset any mailboxes protruding past the minimum measurement of 7 inches behind the face of the curb. This will ensure that the mailbox will not be damaged during the milling and paving operation. Any damage that may occur will be the responsibility of the homeowner***
Please trim any trees or shrubs extending past the edge of the roadway or curb. This will allow our paving equipment to pass safely in front of your property. Montgomery Township will not be responsible for anything damaged in the right-of-way, such as invisible dog fencing, basketball backstops etc.
The following is the proposed schedule for the 2024 Curb Replacement Program
The hours of operation will be approximately 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and may change as necessary.
The project is scheduled to begin in late-May and be completed in mid-July.
Concrete curb work will be done as needed on the following roads:
- White Pine Drive
- Addison Lane
- Sparks Circle
- Country Lane
- Magdalena Lane
- Manor Drive
- Terwood Lane
- Wentworth Drive
- Broad Acres Road
- Blue Jay Way
- Gordon Lane
- Schreiner Drive
- McLaughlin Road
- Claremont Drive (Upper State Road to County Line Road)
Please note that the curb to be removed and replaced will be marked out in white.
Note: Only severely cracked or heavily spalled curbs will be replaced.
All driveway and/or lawn restorations will be done in a timely manner upon completion of the project. Some residents will have to park their vehicles in the street during the curb restoration.
Defacing or writing in concrete will be treated as criminal mischief vandalism and will be handled by the Montgomery Township Police Department. Anyone that witnesses vandalism is asked to please call the Police Department at (215) 362-2301.
Please trim any trees or shrubs extending past the edge of the roadway or curb. This will allow our contractor to easily access your property to make the necessary repairs. Montgomery Township will not be responsible for anything damaged in the right-of-way, such as invisible dog fencing, lawn sprinkler systems etc.
Please feel free to contact the Public Works Department at (215) 855-0510 if you have any questions pertaining to the information above. Thank you.

Parks & Trails Projects
Snow Removal
Montgomery Township Public Works Department makes storm preparedness a priority all year round. Salt and other necessary tools/materials are stocked in mid-summer to ensure that The Department has the necessary resources for Township residents to have a less stressful winter.
Please understand the Township’s snow removal process below to make sure everything can go according to plan during a storm:
High priority is also given to the clearing of major streets so that school buses and emergency vehicles can gain access to all parts of the Township. As soon as all major streets are clear, equipment is immediately moved into residential areas.
Under normal circumstances, cul-de-sacs are the last residential streets to be cleared. Cul-de-sacs are plowed last, because they carry the lowest volume of traffic among the different types of streets.
Snow on state roads
State snow removal crews are responsible for clearing state roads. However, a Township plow will keep their blades down while traveling a state road to assist in the state’s snow removal process out of courtesy and safety for travelers.
To see which roads are maintained by PennDOT, please visit Township Roads vs. State Roads / Montgomery Township, PA (montgomerytwp.org)
There are two aspects of a snow operation - salting and plowing. When roads start to freeze from falling precipitation, salting operations begin on major roads and continue until all roads are completed or until it is no longer effective to salt (due to the depth of snow). The more traffic on a road, the more effective the salt. As a result, some residential streets with small amounts of traffic may appear to have not been salted.
Please keep in mind that as temperatures drop, salt becomes less effective. Once the temperature drops below 20 degrees, salt is no longer effective at all.
If snowfall accumulates and plowing is required, salting operations cease. When the snow stops and final plowing is accomplished on all roads, salt is spread again. All roads are monitored for icy spots and re-salted where dangerous.
Each property owner should check their mailbox front to ensure that it is the minimum of 6 inches behind the face of the curb, which is within federal postal regulations. Prior to the start of winter, the homeowner should reset any mailboxes protruding past the minimum measurement of 6 inches behind the face of the curb. This will ensure that the mailbox will not be damaged during the plowing operations. Any damage that may occur will be the responsibility of the homeowner, unless the plow truck was directly responsible for the damage.
All basketball backstops and trash containers/totes should be removed from any Township Right-of-Way, which is generally 1 foot behind the sidewalk. Any damage that may occur during plowing operations will be the responsibility of the homeowner.
As salting and plowing are difficult operations to perform, residents are requested to park in their driveways when snow is anticipated, rather than on the street. Please keep in mind that it is almost impossible to keep snow from being deposited at your driveway during plowing, as the plow cannot be lifted or stopped at each driveway as it passes.
If you have your driveway plowed before the street is completed, clear an area to the left of the drive entrance (standing in the driveway, facing the street). When your street is plowed, the snow from the plow can be unloaded in this area instead of your driveway.
Plows sometimes find it necessary to make several passes in order to clear snow all the way to the curb to allow for property drainage.
Please, do not empty snow from your driveway into the street, this slows the overall plowing operation. Also, if snow that is placed in the street freezes, it can create a traffic hazard.
If you have a fire hydrant on your property, please clear the snow away from the area around it (leaving the markers intact). This will assist fire crews in the event of an emergency.
Please be patient, snow removal is a difficult and time-consuming process. Since Township crews need many hours of intensive labor to complete snow clearing operations, please try to limit your travel during and immediately following a snowfall unless absolutely necessary. The less traffic on the roads during snow clearing operations, the quicker the job can be accomplished.
Important Numbers
Please only call if it is an urgent matter. If snow removal crews are sent off their normal routes on special efforts, it slows down the overall cleanup. Your street will be plowed as quickly as possible.
If you do call to report a condition, the information is immediately dispatched to a truck in your district. There is no need to call a second time.
In the event of a police, fire or ambulance emergency, the Township's plow drivers are dispatched in conjunction with the emergency vehicles.
Neighbor & Family Safety
Montgomery Township would like to thank residents for their continued support throughout the winter seasons and remind residents to check on family, friends, and neighbors to ensure their safety and well-being this winter.
Snow Emergency Routes
The Montgomery Township Police Department issues a Snow Emergency when conditions exist that warrant such a declaration to protect the health, safety, and welfare of affected residents in Montgomery Township.
When a Snow Emergency is declared, all Snow Emergency routes must be kept clear of parked or unattended vehicles during the emergency so that roads can be properly plowed.
Any vehicles left parked or abandoned on a Snow Emergency route during a snow emergency may be fined or towed. Please click here for a list of Montgomery Township Snow Emergency routes.

Stormwater Management
Precipitation from rain or melting snow that flows over the ground creates stormwater runoff. Surfaces like streets, driveways, and sidewalks prevent runoff from being absorbed into the ground. Stormwater runoff flows into storm drains or directly into bodies of water.
Stormwater runoff can pick up chemicals, debris, dirt and other pollutants that will contaminate our water. It is a common misconception among residents that stormwater is treated before it reaches the waterways. This assumption is false, and everything picked up by the runoff empties into our natural waterways.
By practicing healthy household habits, residents can limit the pollution dumped into our storm drains, which empty into the waterways. Use fertilizers sparingly and sweep up driveways, sidewalks, and roads.
Things You Can Do to Prevent Stormwater Runoff Pollution
- Use fertilizers sparingly and sweep up driveways, sidewalks, and gutters.
- Never dump anything down storm drains or in streams.
- Vegetate bare spots in your yard.
- Compost your yard waste.
- Use least toxic pesticides, follow labels, and learn how to prevent pest problems.
- Direct downspouts away from paved surfaces; consider a rain garden to capture runoff.
- Take your car to the car wash instead of washing it in the driveway.
- Check your car for leaks and recycle your motor oil.
- Pick up after your pet.
- Have your septic tank pumped and system inspected regularly.
NPDES MS4 Program
As part of the Clean Water Act, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) has developed stormwater management regulations to improve water quality. The Township was required to apply for a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for its Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4), which is administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. This permit is part of a 5-year program, which began in March 2003. Any municipality with a population of at least 5,000, including counties, must comply with the program
The MS4 program is designed to literally "manage" stormwater, both by protecting storm water quality and by preventing high volumes of runoff from causing flooding in developed areas. Montgomery Township must also track the progress towards the goals of their permit and report our progress to the PA DEP on an annual basis. The MS4 program is broken up into six control measures, which includes: Public Education and Outreach on Stormwater Impacts, Public Involvement and Participation, Illicit Discharge Detection & Elimination, Construction Site Stormwater Runoff Control, Post-Construction Storm Water Management in New Development and Redevelopment, and Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operations.

USPS Mailbox Guidelines
USPS Mailbox Guidelines

For complete USPS mailbox guidelines, click here.
Where to Place the Mailbox
- Here are some helpful guidelines to follow when placing your mailbox:
- Position your mailbox 41″ to 45″ from the road surface to the bottom of the mailbox or point of mail entry.
- Place your mailbox 6″ to 8″ back from the curb. If you do not have a raised curb, contact your local postmaster for guidance.
- Put your house or apartment number on the mailbox.
- If your mailbox is on a different street from your house or apartment, put your full street address on the box.
Installing the Mailbox Post
The best mailbox supports are stable but bend or fall away if a car hits them. The Federal Highway Administration recommends:
- A 4″ x 4″ wooden support or a 2″-diameter standard steel or aluminum pipe.
- Avoid unyielding and potentially dangerous supports, like heavy metal pipes, concrete posts, and farm equipment (e.g., milk cans filled with concrete).
- Bury your post no more than 24″ deep.
