If you are building a new home or structure or enlarging the one you have, you should stop at the Jackson Township Municipal Building to complete a Zoning Permit Application to begin the process. After the Zoning Officer completes his zoning review he returns the application to the Township Office. The Township Office will then determine what inspections if any are required under the Pennsylvania State Building Code and provide the forms needed for MDIA (Middle Department Inspection Agency) who enforces the State Building Code for Jackson Township.  If you have any questions about your project, you should contact the Jackson Township Office at 749-0725.  If your project does not involve building a new structure (i.e. - remodeling) you should check with the Cambria County Building Codes Agency at 471-0424 or 471-0425.  Their toll free number is 1-888-471-0424.  They will be able to tell you if anything is required to comply with the Pennsylvania State Building Code.

If you are putting in a new driveway or repaving an existing driveway which enters onto a Township road, the answer is yes. Township roads are marked with "T" numbers on the street signs just below the name of the street. If no "T" number is on the street sign, it is probably a private road and no driveway permit would be necessary. If your driveway enters onto a State highway you will have to contact PennDOT.

Any animal related problems should be reported to the non-emergency phone number of 911. The phone number to call is: (800) 281-1680

You can call Waste Management at the following toll-free number (877) 677-4884 to find out or just check with a neighbor. Jackson Township's garbage service provides for unlimited garbage and large items can be placed at curbside.  There are also free quarterly landfill passes available (1 per quarter per household).  Those passes can be obtained at the Jackson Township Municipal Building at 513 Pike Road (Mundys Corner).

Yes, the number should be posted near the front door to your home and should be visible from road directly in front of your house. In the event of an emergency, having your address number posted on your home could mean the difference between life or death. Also you can be fined anywhere from $30 to $300 for not having your home posted.

If you are reserving a pavilion, you need to complete the Pavilion Rental Agreement which is found on this website under recreation and forms links.
