Zoning

Zoning: York Township has established a zoning code (downloadable from the Zoning Page) and permits must be obtained before any land use or building may occur. Permits are required in order to locate, erect, construct, reconstruct, enlarge, or structurally alter any building or structure. Pools, fences and signs may also require a permit.
