Future Land Use Public Workshop

Abington Township's Comprehensive Plan Development Team will be holding a public workshop this Saturday, October 30, 1 to 3 PM at Crestmont Clubhouse. Join us in small-group discussions with fellow Abingtonians about future land use. Specifically, we’d like to hear your opinions about how shopping and neighborhood centers should change to best meet the community’s needs into the future. We hope you'll join us! For more information on the comprehensive plan, visit www.abingtonpa.gov/vision2035.

Due to COVID-19 concerns, we will be holding this workshop outside at Crestmont Clubhouse, so please make sure to dress appropriately, as the weather is not looking like it may be cold and wet. We will be sheltered from the rain.

Additional note: there’s quite a bit of misinformation floating around social media regarding the Comprehensive Plan. In fact, the reality is that we need to update the plan once every 10 years per the PA Municipalities Planning Code. Suggestions discussed within the plan, such as the undefined image below, are not ordained- they are simply the starting point of a vision to guide the future update of the Zoning Code, Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance, and other policies that will guide the township in the future. These are worth discussing, but should not be considered a done deal or carved in stone, they are there for purposes of discussion, and discussion is exactly what we want.
