North Coventry Township has begun the process of designing a new municipal building in a new location. According to information provided in the township’s budget presentation, the current plan is to locate the new building at Hanover Meadows, the 22-acre property the township owns off Lenape Way, between Route 100 and South Hanover Street, where the public works building is already located. The deed labeled the property as Open Space at Town Square, but it listed no specific restrictions against building on the land. Originally, the township had planned to move both the public works and police departments to the site, but that plan was scaled back to include just the public works.The police and the administrative offices continue to occupy a 7,762-square-foot building constructed in 1945 at the corner of South Hanover and Urner streets, adjacent to the Alliance Christian School. It houses 19 employees.
