Environmental Advisory Council

The EAC is an advisory council that focuses on environmental issues that directly and indirectly affect the Township. One of the most important functions of the EAC is to review properties for inclusion in the Plan to preserve Upper Makefield's Farmland and Open Space, and make recommendations to the Board.

The professional expertise of council members translates into recommendations on environmental protection standards. These comments, in accordance with Township ordinances, are then submitted to the Planning Commission and Township Supervisors to be addressed as part of the overall review of the project.

At the request of the Township Supervisors, the EAC provides letters of comment on various environmental issues, reviews, advises on appropriate land development ordinances being written or revised, and joins with other Township officials for special events and programs.

Members are appointment by the Board of Supervisors to three year terms ending in December.
