DCED Study Presentation

At its July 14, 2026, public meeting, the East Manchester Township Board of Supervisors reviewed and discussed the Fire Services Study presented by the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED). The study, provided at no cost to the participating municipalities, evaluated the current delivery of fire protection services within East Manchester Township, Manchester Borough, and Mount Wolf Borough.

The presentation identifies current strengths and challenges, offers recommendations to improve the long-term sustainability of fire protection services, and outlines several potential paths forward for consideration. The Board also discussed the next steps, which include continued collaboration with the participating municipalities and fire departments to evaluate and implement appropriate recommendations.

The complete DCED presentation is available below for public review. See above. (Note: The DCED Study Presentation has been posted to the website since July 16, 2026. It was merely moved to this post. Thank you.)

**Please view the informational documents provided and overview below**

At the April 8, 2026 Public Hearing, the board approved the Overlay and Data Center Regulations to ensure that if a plan gets submitted then it is regulated for public health, safety and welfare regulations. TO BE CLEAR, NO PLAN PROPOSALS RELATED TO DATA CENTERS HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED TO THE TOWNSHIP. The ordinances are to be proactive. Background: At the October 21, 2025 Public Hearing, the Board passed Curative Amendment Resolution No. 2025-14, which gives 180 days from the date passed to amend the ordinances and fix the defects within the previously proposed draft ordinances. The currently proposed updates address important factors such as water usage, electric capacity, and environmental safeguards. The amendments will also ensure that all applicable environmental agencies are involved in the review of any proposed data center project, along with other key requirements to help protect the health, safety, and quality of life of our residents. Additionally, at the November 11, 2025 Board of Supervisor meeting, the board took formal action to no longer include the Golf Course on Board Road. At the December 16, 2025 Special Meeting, the board took action to create an overlay district over the York Farmers Bank Property off of Gravel Hill Road (26-000-MI-0148.00-00000 and  26-000-MI-0148.A0-00000). At the February 10, 2026 Board meeting, parcels 26-000-01-0113.00-00000, 26,000-MI-0051.B0-00000, and 26-000MI-0051.C0-00000 were added to the overlay district to reduce the chances of a spot zoning argument. Thank you.
