NOCKAMIXON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE: 2025

Nockamixon Township is updating its Comprehensive Plan, and we want to hear from you!

Beginning in 2025, Planners from the Bucks County Planning Commission will discuss the Comp Plan Update at the Nockamixon Planning Commission meetings, which are held on the first Tuesday of the month at 7:00 PM. All meetings and work sessions related to the Comp Plan Update will be open to the public, and public attendance is encouraged in order to gather resident feedback for future Township planning efforts, programs, and services.

The Township’s Comprehensive Plan is an official document that serves as a long-range planning document that expresses a community's goals, objectives, policies, and strategies for future development and the preservation of natural and historic resources.

TOWNSHIP RECYCLING AT RISK

The Township only recycles clean, dry glass and plastic bottles and jars and cardboard. Please, please do not leave electronics, mattresses, building materials, etc. Please take computers, TVs, and other electronics to 611 Metals or contact your private waste hauler/trash collector to pick them up.

Here are some reminders:

  • Please rinse containers completely, and if that's not practical, throw them into the trash.
  • Discard lids from spray bottles.
  • Do not put Styrofoam into the recycling bins.
  • Do not recycle cardboard with food residue on it, such as pizza boxes.
  • Do not leave your recyclables in a plastic bag. These jam the recycling machines.
  • Remember to flatten boxes.

The Township recycling program only works with your help. Please recycle responsibly. For more information and other recycling resources, check the website "Trash and Recycling" page or click here.
