GOVERNMENT
Lehman Township is a Second Class Township
governed by a Board of Supervisors, which are elected at large by the
qualified voters of the Township. Each Board of Supervisors is elected for
the term of six years. Their responsibilities include: to establish
commissions and authorities, to maintain the roads, to prepare the building
and zoning regulations, and to ensure that the community's health, safety
and welfare needs are adequately addressed. The Township
Secretary/Treasurer, who is appointed by the Board of Supervisors, is in
charge of all Township monies.
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
The three-member Board of Supervisors are elected officials who
oversee the operations of the Township. They are there for your
convenience. If you have a problem that may need their attention, they can
be reached at the Township
Building during the
week or in the evenings or on weekends in their homes. If you would like
something to be taken under consideration, please submit it in writing, and
they will act upon it as soon as possible. Their powers as Supervisors are
vested in them through the Second Class Township Code. The Board of
Supervisors is empowered to appoint professionals to assist them in the
operation of the Township and to furnish advice and counsel on technical
matters. In addition to overseeing the township, they appoint the various
members to all the Township committees, commissions, and boards. They
welcome anyone who might be interested in serving their community to write
a letter of interest to Lehman
Township, RR 4, Box 4000,
Bushkill, PA
