The public hearing will take place on November 10, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. at the Drumore Township Municipal Building.

The Drumore Township Zoning Hearing Board will consider these variance requests at the upcoming public hearing. The project aims to establish faith-based residential programs, but details on the builder remain unclear. Interested parties are encouraged to attend the hearing to voice their opinions or seek further information.
