The Zoning Hearing Board of Doylestown Township held a hearing on March 27, 2025, to consider an application by Albert and Jeanette DeRichemond to legalize an existing accessory family apartment in their single-family residence at 50 Poplar Lane. The applicants sought a special exception and a variance to permit the apartment to exceed the standard 25% size limit of usable floor area, as the apartment already existed when they purchased the property in 2000 and will be used to house a caregiver due to health concerns. The board found the applicants had proper standing and that the subject property, a 1.09-acre lot in the R-1 Residential Zoning District, met all legal notice requirements for the hearing.

On October 29, 2019, the Evanston City Council passed a resolution instructing the City Clerk to place a referendum on the March 17, 2020 ballot asking voters to approve nonpartisan elections for the positions of mayor, city alderman, and city clerk. Although Evanston has historically conducted most of its elections on a nonpartisan basis, Illinois constitutional requirements mandate that residents formally approve such elections through a binding referendum. The referendum would allow these municipal offices to be elected without party affiliation designations, effective with the 2020 election and thereafter.

The Hazleton Home Rule Study Commission is drafting a Mayor article for the city's home rule charter, using the current Third Class City Code and Optional Plan B as the structural foundation. The document outlines preliminary drafting assumptions on three key mayoral requirements: minimum age eligibility (currently 18, same as council members); residency qualification (Commission consensus favors two years of continuous residency preceding election, with the mayor required to maintain city residency during their term); and vacancy procedures (City Council appoints a replacement to serve until the next municipal election occurring more than 200 days after the vacancy). The Commission is soliciting feedback on these assumptions before providing formal drafting instructions to Pennsylvania Economy League staff to begin charter article development.

The Hazleton City Government Study Commission issued questions for consideration regarding legislative body qualifications, oath requirements, and conflict-of-interest prohibitions, intended to gauge consensus among elected officials in January 2026. Current qualifications require city residency for at least one year before election and a minimum age of eighteen years; the Pennsylvania Economy League recommends extending residency to two or three years. Current policy requires an oath of office with no set format; the Commission recommends a standardized oath and making failure to take it grounds for forfeiture of the seat. Current prohibitions bar council members from holding federal, state, or county offices, school district positions within the city, or any city employment; the document does not specify whether the Commission recommends changes to these restrictions.
