It is great to see members of our community looking out for one another. We encourage residents to continue helping keep our Borough a safe and welcoming place to live by reporting concerns through the proper channels.

Please remember to notify the Borough of any issues within the community. We cannot address or correct problems if we are not made aware of them.

Please note that posting a complaint on Facebook is not considered an official notification to the Borough. To ensure that concerns are reviewed and acted upon, they must be reported through the appropriate Borough channels.

Residents are also reminded that our social media accounts are not monitored 24 hours a day and should not be used to report crimes, suspicious activity, emergencies, or incidents requiring a police or code enforcement response. While we make every effort to review messages and notifications promptly, the volume of daily activity may result in delays or missed submissions.

To report a violation of Borough rules, regulations, or ordinances, please contact the Borough at 215-757-5152, email us at [email protected] or submit an official complaint form at https://penndelboro.com/document/complaint-form/.

To report criminal activity, suspicious persons, or incidents requiring police assistance, please contact dispatch directly at 215-757-5151. In the event of an emergency or an incident in progress, always call 9-1-1.

We appreciate the community's cooperation, vigilance, and continued support in helping keep our Borough safe and well-maintained.

Driving a few miles over the speed limit might not feel like a big deal, but in a collision with a pedestrian, it can be the difference between life and death.

Slow down, save a life.

Due to the upcoming rain and weather conditions, we have made the difficult decision to cancel this year's Penndel-Hulmeville Memorial Day Parade. The safety of our participants, volunteers, and community comes first.

We appreciate everyone’s understanding and support, and we hope to see you next year!

Attention Residents of Penndel Borough:

Please be advised that borough-wide street sweeping is scheduled for Monday, May 18, between the hours of 7:00 AM and 3:00 PM. In the event of inclement weather, the street sweeping will be rescheduled to Wednesday, May 20.

Residents are kindly asked to remove all vehicles from borough streets during these hours so the street sweeper can thoroughly clean roadways, gutters, and curbs. Keeping streets clear during scheduled sweeping helps improve roadway safety, stormwater drainage, and the overall appearance of our community.

Your cooperation is greatly appreciated and helps ensure the sweeping process can be completed efficiently and effectively.
