  • At a Meeting at Lima, June 20, 1952, Dr. Carl Leech Proposed a Seven District Jointure As Recommended in the Survey Made by the Pennsylvania Economy League
    At a meeting at Lima, June 20, 1952, Dr. Carl Leech proposed a seven district jointure as recommended in the survey made by the Pennsylvania Economy League. The purpose of the jointure was to provide a unified administration to carry out common objectives and policies in the school program, kindergarten through twelfth grade. On July 15, 1952, Dr. Leech set forth plans for the jointure to include Media, Chester Heights, Bethel, Concord, Edgmont, Middletown, and Upper Providence. Members of the Jointure Committee were to be Leedom Tuckerman, Media; William Willits, Concord; George W. Feldman, Bethel; Harold Hormann, Edgmont; Robert F. Engle, Middletown; John Burkland, Upper Providence; Mrs. Oleta Ramage, Supervising Principal, Concord; Dr. Fred Tanger, Superintendent, Media; J. Earl Mast, Supervising Principal, Middletown; and Donald Snively, Supervising Principal, Upper Providence. At this July meeting, Dr. Leech called attention to a chart which indicated that the population of the area according to the 1950 census was 21,934: 1,960 were of elementary school age, 672 of junior high school age, and 484 of senior high school age. The projected school figures for 1956 were 1,030 junior high pupils and 763 senior high pupils. As the seven‐district committee studied the cost of a new high school, lack of accord among the members of the committee became increasingly apparent, and Upper Providence went on record as favoring a jointure with Middletown even if the other five districts failed to reach an agreement. On April 21, 1953, at Media High School, the master agreement involving 2,600 pupils in seven districts was signed.

  • Community Facilities & Services
    Chapter 18 Community Facilities & Services Introduction & Purpose Community facilities are the public and quasi-public properties that accommodate municipal operations or provide some service to the public that contributes to the functioning of the Township or to the quality of life generally. Examples include the Township Building and the services provided directly by the municipality, schools, emergency services (police and fire protection, ambulance service), parks and other recreational facilities, libraries, and hospitals. The original purpose of township government was to build and maintain roads. While this remains a significant responsibility, many other duties are now included. Increasingly, local governments are finding that there are able to provide municipal services more efficiently by joining with surrounding communities in multi-municipal associations. This chapter is organized by type of service, with special notice of ownership and access where applicable. Figure 18.1 shows the locations of the described facilities. Township Office and Administration The Upper Providence Township Building is located along Providence Road just north of the Media Borough line and contains the Township administrative offices, the Police Department, the offices of the Township Sewer Authority, and meeting space for the various municipal agencies. Pennsylvania Act 62 of 1972 (the “Home Rule Act”) enabled municipalities to develop systems of local government apart from the system of first- and second-class townships, boroughs, and cities that was in effect in most of the state. In 1974, Township residents approved a proposal to form a Government Study Commission for the purpose of examining local governance and considering if some other form should be considered.
