The Town Board is the legislative body of the Town government.  The Board sets budgets, approves expenditures and legislates.  The Town Supervisor chairs all Town Board meetings, but has little other authority.  The supervisor gets one vote on all matters brought before the Board replacing the historical position of only voting to break a tie vote.

Town Board Members

Town Supervisor, Norm Roof

Councilman, David Chase

Councilman, Bruce Snyder

Councilwoman, Tammy Tanner

Councilwoman, Charlotte Wheeler

The Town Board holds regular meetings on the second Tuesday of each month at the Town Hall on the Cobb Road in Harrisburg.  All meetings are open to the public according to the law.

Anyone wishing to address the Board is requested to submit a request to the supervisor or clerk in advance of the meeting.  Please outline the purpose of your request and identify all those you represent.

Privilege of the floor is offered at each meeting.  However, while each meeting is open to the public, speaking at each meeting is a privilege given by the supervisor at his discretion.  Speaking to the board carries an obligation to follow some simple rules:
All speakers must be recognized by the Supervisor
Speakers are limited to five minutes
Speakers should state their name and the subject on which they wish to speak
Groups should select a single spokesman to represent the group
All comments should be addressed to the entire board (no personal attacks)
The Board, at its option, may ask clarifying questions.  This will not detract from the speaker's designated time.

Anyone wishing to write to the Supervisor or to the Town Board may do so and the letter will be read in open meeting.  To correspond please address comments to the Town Supervisor at:
