Anti-Idling Ordinance Approved By Township Council

Certain new developments would be required to post anti-idling signs under ordinance amendments approved June 11 by the Township Council.

The amendments were recommended by the township Environmental Commission in August 2023.

The amendments “will work towards preventing instances of idling, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and the release of harmful pollutants, and educate the public about the negative impacts of idling,” according to the ordinance. “The FTEC strongly feels that the requirement of anti-idling signage
on specific newly developed properties, as well as existing and new properties owned by Franklin
Township, will lead to positive behavioral changes that will improve the overall environment and health
for our residents.”
