The Township has its own school district that encompasses the same geographic boundaries, but each has its own separate taxing structure.

All meetings of the Township's Boards, Commissions, and Authority are open to the public. All have varying requirements for public notification, but the meetings are advertised in the legal notice section of the local newspaper. All agencies must follow the Sunshine Act for open meetings, but at times certain sensitive issues (as described in the Act) may be and are discussed in executive session. Anything that is said in an open meeting is on the record and can be reported in the media. All members of the Township's agencies are aware of this, and strive to temper their remarks accordingly.
