All Tredyffrin Parks, Tennis Court Reopening Friday

TREDYFFRIN TOWNSHIP, PA — With Chester County expected to move into the "yellow" phase of Gov. Tom Wolf's plan to reopen the state Friday, Tredyffrin Township is laying out guidelines on how it will operate under the "yellow" designation.

Starting Friday, all township parks will be open for walking/running and other forms of exercise while continuing to follow guidelines from Wolf, the Chester County Health Department, and the CDC. Tennis courts will also be open with users abiding by safety recommendations.

Those using the courts are urged not to share equipment or celebrate with high fives. Courts should be limited four players.

However, all other park facilities — such as restrooms, basketball courts, pavilions, water fountains, playground equipment — will remain closed. The closed areas of the parks will be phased in as the restrictions are lifted.

Libraries will remain closed but will begin be implementing a phased process to reinstate library services. For more information on the libraries plans to reopen. See here for more information on the libraries plans to reopen.

The township said it plans to open the Temporary Township Administration office to the public on June 15.

Limitations will be in place for those coming to the office.

They are:

• Strongly recommend and encourage any interaction with township staff continue to take place remotely via email/phone calls; bins available to drop off of documents to limit personal interaction;
• only one person will be admitted at a time – please call ahead to make an appointment;
• mask must be worn at all times;
• stand 6 feet away from the transaction desk;
• sign-in will be required; and
• limit any in-person transaction as much as possible

All Township meetings in the month of June will be conducted virtually. The information on where to find those meetings and participate will be on the township website here.

Building Department permits as well as Zoning Hearing Board, Land Development, and Subdivision applications are being accepted via electronic and mail. But on June 15, the township will accept in-person applications with one person allowed at a time in its offices following the guidelines mentioned above.
