Haverford Township Board of Commissioners Meeting - May 11, 2026

The Haverford Township Board of Commissioners held a meeting on May 11, 2026, which included extensive public discussion and board deliberation on a proposed parking ordinance affecting the 1600 block of Woodmir Way. Residents expressed concerns about safety, emergency vehicle access, and traffic flow due to two-sided parking, especially during school hours with high school student parking. The board considered an ordinance to prohibit parking on one side of the street during school hours to alleviate these issues. The motion for the first reading of this ordinance was approved, with further steps required before it becomes effective, including installation of signage. Additionally, the board adopted resolutions related to the reassignment of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds totaling approximately $50,000 for a comprehensive plan zoning update and other projects. Another ordinance was adopted amending a lease agreement with Unicite Omnioint PA Tower Venture LLC for property at 2080 Old Westchester Pike. The meeting also featured proclamations recognizing National Police Officers Memorial Day, National Stuttering Awareness Week, and Mental Health Awareness Month. Public comments addressed concerns about a parade and outdoor gathering ordinance conflicting with First Amendment rights, with the board acknowledging ongoing efforts to revise that ordinance. The meeting concluded with commissioner remarks and announcements of upcoming community events.
