Windsor Township

What Windsor Township does

Windsor Township is a municipal government entity serving residents and property owners in a defined jurisdiction in York County, Pennsylvania, with its seat at 1480 Windsor Road, Red Lion, PA 17356. The township was formed in 1753 and operates under a Board of Supervisors form of governance, currently led by Chairperson Kathy Kerchner with members Kim Moyer and Stanley Saylor, and administered by Township Manager Jennifer L. Gunnet. It delivers a full slate of municipal services: curbside trash and recycling collection (via Republic Services/York Waste Disposal), sewer service, stormwater management, zoning and permitting, parks and recreation (including Freysville Park with pavilion rentals), emergency management coordination, road maintenance, and septic system regulation under the OLDS Ordinance.

Revenue is generated through three primary mechanisms: (i) host municipal benefit fees paid by Modern Landfill, which fully subsidize residential trash and recycling at no direct charge to residents; (ii) quarterly sewer bills at $130 per quarter (recently increased, effective with the May/June/July invoice cycle); and (iii) permit and fee revenue from building, zoning, and solicitation permits, plus ancillary income from pavilion rentals. The township employs approximately 31 staff across the Highway Department, Sewer Department, Building & Grounds, Office Staff, and Emergency Management Coordinator roles, supplemented by elected and appointed board members serving on the Planning Commission, Zoning Hearing Board, and Recreation Commission.

Technology infrastructure is standard for a small municipality: a public website (windsortwp.com) functioning as the information portal and meeting-minutes repository, online sewer bill payment through Heartland Payment Services, and a Facebook page for community engagement. The township has no commercial product, software platform, SaaS offering, or proprietary technology. Public transparency is maintained through downloadable agendas, meeting minutes, budgets, and ordinances, with a published 2026 General Fund Budget and 2026 Road Projects. As a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Windsor Township has no parent company, shareholders, or external investors.
