Township Government

Blair Township Board of Supervisors

Blair Township is a second class Township under Pennsylvania Code. It’s governmental functions are performed under the leadership of a three member, elected Township Board of Supervisors. All Supervisors have an equal vote and may offer input into the functions of all departments. The Board plays the central role in township government, as the legislative body of the Township, setting policy, enacting ordinances and resolutions, adopting budgets and levying taxes. Since there is no separately elected or appointed executive, the Board also performs executive functions such as formulating the annual budget, enforcing ordinances, approving expenditures and hiring employees. In Blair Township, the Supervisors divide their administrative responsibilities among three categories: General Administration, Police, and Highways. With the exception of vacancies resulting from resignation or other circumstances, Supervisors are elected to six-year terms of office, with one Supervisor position elected every two years. When an off-election cycle vacancy occurs, the remaining Board members appoint a new Supervisor, who must then run for election in the next scheduled general election to complete the remainder of the unexpired term.
