NEW ORDINANCES
NOCKAMIXON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE 2026
A Comprehensive Plan serves as a blueprint for the preservation and future development of a community, providing a long-term reference for land use decisions. By cataloging the township’s natural, open space, recreational, agricultural, historic, transportation, and community service resources, the plan establishes a foundation for evaluating conservation priorities and formulating recommendations for consideration and long-term implementation. It differs from zoning in that it is a long-range vision or policy for future growth, while zoning is a day-to-day legal, enforceable ordinance.
Tasked with updating the plan, the Nockamixon Planning Commission met with Bucks County Planners to discuss draft updates and garner input from township committees at regularly scheduled public meetings. The Planning Commission formally completed their review in January of 2026 and, after a public review period, the Board of Supervisors adopted the Comprehensive Plan by resolution at the June 18th meeting.
