Services

Fingerprinting

The Police Department provides fingerprinting services for those who live or work in the Township. This might be required for an adoption, employment application, licensing or immigration. This service is free to residents. There is a fee for fingerprinting for those that work in the township. The cost is $15 per person for up to three cards and then $5 per card for each additional card. This service will be provided on an appointment basis.

Safe Bike Program
