Resident asks to delay enforcement for unpermitted pool; solicitor cites liability limits

Washington Township Board of Supervisors · May 19, 2025

Summary

A resident asked the board how to delay processing a swimming pool and deck permit after installing them without permits; the township solicitor said the supervisors could not act because of liability concerns.

Resident Chad Sweigart of 105 Harbold Altland Road asked the supervisors what he could do to delay his swimming pool and deck permit after installing both without permits and saying he could not afford to bring them up to code this year. The question was presented during the meeting’s public comment portion.

Solicitor Sharon Myers responded that the supervisors could not take action on the request due to liability reasons. No enforcement decision or timeline was recorded in the minutes; the matter remains unresolved and would follow standard permit and enforcement procedures under township regulations.
