HOW CAN I PRESERVE MY PROPERTY?

The first step is to send a letter of interest to the Nockamixon Township office at 589 Lake Warren Road, Upper Black Eddy PA. 18972 or by email at . A sample letter template is available to get you started: Sample of Landowner Preservation Interest.

NOCKAMIXON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE: 2025 -2026
Nockamixon Township is updating its Comprehensive Plan, the official document that serves as a long-range planning document that expresses a community's goals, objectives, policies, and strategies for future development and the preservation of natural and historic resources.
Over the past year, planners from the Bucks County Planning Commission have presented and discussed drafts of the Comprehensive Plan Update at regular meetings of the Nockamixon Planning Commission. At its January 6, 2026 meeting, the Planning Commission completed its review and voted to forward the draft, with final revisions, to the Nockamixon Township Board of Supervisors.
The Board of Supervisors will review the draft and, at a public meeting, announce the start of a 45-day public review period. Once announced, the draft Comprehensive Plan will be available online, and a hard copy will be available for public review at the township office.
All meetings are open to the public. For more information click here.
