What to know about permits in Upper Darby Township

Most municipalities in Delaware County list a Code Enforcement Officer, a Building Inspector, and a Zoning Officer. Upper Darby lists none of those. Permits and inspections run through the Licenses & Inspections Director, Amrinder Singh. Zoning runs through the Planning and Zoning Manager, Joshua Chast. The blank rows for those standard titles in the contact block above are not missing data; they reflect how the township is organized.

Someone searching for a Zoning Officer to ask about a setback or a use question will not find that title here. Joshua Chast, the Planning and Zoning Manager, is the listed contact for zoning, and the township's main line is 610-734-7625. Rita LaRue is the Community & Economic Development Director, a separate listing that may come up for larger development questions.

The chief administrative contact is Crandall Jones, whose title is Chief Administrative Officer rather than the Manager/Secretary used in many smaller municipalities. Uniform Construction Code appeals go to the Delaware County Office of Housing & Community Development, listed as the UCC Board of Appeals.
