COVID-19 Update: Township Offices Re-Open on Monday, June 29, 2020

Township offices will re-open to the public effective Monday, June 29th, with normal business hours Monday-Friday from 8:30am-4:30pm and with appropriate restrictions in place. Masks must be worn when visiting the Administration Building, and – if necessary – the number of visitors at any given time may be limited. The Township’s office phone number is 610-797-4000 and general email is info@salisburylehighpa.gov.

Please see the Township’s Coronavirus Statement for full details of all modifications.

Modified Drop-Off Site Schedules Will Continue Through July 2020

Both Township drop-off sites will continue to be open Monday to Friday from 8am-2pm, on alternating weeks, with additional Monday & Thursday evening from 2pm-6pm and Saturday hours from 8am-1pm. Franko will be open the weeks of June 29th and July 13th & 27th, but closed both July 3rd and 4th in observation of the Independence Day holiday. Devonshire will be open the weeks of July 6th and 20th. We will continue to assess the operation schedule beyond July and post appropriate notice. It is subject to change at any time, depending on circumstances.

Residents will have to show proof of Township residency (their most recent utility bill would be optimal) and addresses will be logged. Only 3 cars will be allowed on-site at any given time; only when one car leaves another will be allowed in.

As usual, the sites are open for residential use only; no landscapers or non-residential use will be allowed. All materials will be checked to ensure that they’re clean and not contaminated with other waste. Contaminated materials will not be allowed to be disposed of at the site.

In order to maintain appropriate social distancing, there will be no physical interaction between Township staff and the public. Residents must be able to unload materials and empty containers themselves. Residents must take all bags and containers utilized for the transportation of materials with them when they leave the drop-off site.

Masks will be required to be worn to enter the site.

Re-opening of Township Courts for Personal Use by Local Residents

As we now enter the yellow phase county-wide, we will begin re-opening some of the Township’s park facilities:

Tennis, Basketball and Pickleball Courts will be re-opened for personal use by local residents only, along with soccer and ballfields. NO TEAM PRACTICE OR ORGANIZED GAMES SHALL BE PERMITTED. The Township will also begin accepting park pavilion reservations.

Soccer and ballfield reservation requests for organized play continue to be suspended until further notice. Playground facilities and restrooms remain closed. Both of these will be re-evaluated as we near the green phase of re-opening.

A reminder to anyone using the Township’s facilities: YOU MUST ADHERE TO STATE SAFETY GUIDELINES REGARDING GATHERING SIZE, SOCIAL DISTANCING, AND PROTECTIVE GEAR.

Modified Drop-Off Site schedules will continue through June 2020, with a minor addition

Beginning Monday, June 1, 2020, both sites will continue to be open Monday to Friday from 8am-2pm, on alternating weeks, with the addition of Monday & Thursday evening and Saturday hours. Monday and Thursday evening hours will be 2pm-6pm, and Saturday hours will be 8am-1pm. Franko will be open the weeks of June 1st and 15th (Monday thru Saturday). Devonshire will be open the weeks of June 8th and 22nd (Monday thru Saturday). Again, this is a temporary change intended for the month of June only, and we will reassess the operation schedule beyond June sometime in the latter half of the month. It is subject to change at any time, depending on circumstances.

A Township employee will be stationed at the entrance gate, managing all site visitors. Residents will have to show proof of Township residency (their most recent utility bill would be optimal) and addresses will be logged. Only 3 cars will be allowed on-site at any given time; only when one car leaves another will be allowed in.
