Pledge Summary

Montgomery Township is located in southeastern Pennsylvania and is a suburb of Philadelphia. With a population of about 26,000, we are a predominantly bedroom community with a robust commercial corridor and limited industrial areas. We have an Environmental Advisory Council comprised of residents that is committed to educating our residents and acting as advocates for a variety of environmental initiatives. These initiatives include reducing mowed areas, and replacing them with meadows, creating pollinator gardens and reducing the use of pesticides and herbicides in our community.
