Upper Darby Township Council Meeting July 1, 2026

The Upper Darby Township Council held a meeting on July 1, 2026, which included extensive public commentary primarily focused on local development and environmental concerns. A significant portion of the discussion centered on the proposed rezoning and potential development of the Mazino tract, the township's last significant open green space. Residents and council members debated the balance between development and conservation, with many urging the council to preserve the tract as open space rather than allowing mixed-use development. The council also approved the formalization of the Environmental Advisory Committee through ordinance 2026-09, aimed at advising on environmental issues within the township. Other topics included public safety concerns, traffic issues, and community events. No specific contract awards, RFPs, or direct procurement actions were detailed in the meeting.
