A group tasked with updating West Penn Township’s comprehensive plan has been formed.

To date, seven people have agreed to be a part of the group, it was stated at Monday morning’s board of supervisors meeting.

Jeanette Miller, an engineer with Lehigh Engineering LLC, said eight members would be an ideal number to work on the plan, though more are welcome.

Anyone interested in the endeavor may contact the township.

The group is scheduled to meet at 7 p.m. Thursday at the township’s Annex building.

Earlier this month, Lehigh Engineering LLC said it would like to form a group to help develop the plan.

In March, supervisors agreed to have Lehigh Engineering LLC revise the plan at a cost of $12,600.

The township’s last comprehensive plan was done in 2015.

Supervisors want to have it revised because the township is amending its zoning ordinance.

Urban Research and Development is updating the township’s zoning ordinance.
