West Norriton Township is a township in Montgomery County, PA
Page isn’t monitored 24/7. Call 911 for emergencies!

We started when William Penn’s son, William, sold Williamstadt to Isaac Norris and William Trent in 1704. In 1730, the court agreed that Williamstadt should be a township and the Township of Norriton was created. Norriton included what is today West Norriton, Norristown, and East Norriton. In 1812, Norriton was divided and the Borough of Norristown was established. On March 9, 1909, the Township of Norriton was again divided, this time into West Norriton and East Norriton. On March 9, 2009, both townships celebrated their centennial.

To the Residents of West Norriton Township,

As I prepare to close this chapter of my professional career, I want to take a moment to say two simple words: Thank you.

Serving as your Township Manager has been one of the greatest honors of my career. Over the years, I have had the privilege of meeting so many wonderful residents, listening to your concerns, celebrating our successes, and working every day to make West Norriton a community we can all be proud to call home.

Public service is not always easy. There are difficult decisions, challenging moments, and times when we may not always agree. But through it all, my commitment has remained the same: to do what I believed was right for West Norriton and the people who live here.

I am incredibly proud of what we have accomplished together. From improving our infrastructure and investing in our parks and public facilities to strengthening municipal services and planning for the future, every effort has been guided by a desire to leave this community better than I found it.

I also want to recognize the extraordinary employees of West Norriton Township. They are the heart of this organization. Their dedication, professionalism, and commitment to serving our residents are what make this township special. Whatever successes we have achieved belong as much to them as anyone.

While my time as Township Manager is coming to an end, my love for this community and my commitment to its future are not. West Norriton has been much more than a place to work. It has been a significant part of my life, and the relationships and memories I have made here will stay with me forever.

To everyone who has offered a kind word, shared an idea, challenged me to do better, or simply placed their trust in me over the years, please know how much that has meant.

Titles and positions are temporary, but the impact we have on a community and the people we serve can last a lifetime.

Thank you, West Norriton, for allowing me the privilege of serving you. I leave this position with tremendous pride in what we have accomplished, gratitude for the relationships we have built, and optimism for what lies ahead.

This may be the end of my time as Township Manager, but it certainly doesn’t have to be the end of my service to West Norriton.

With sincere gratitude,

Jason Bobst
Township Manager

🎃👻 Keep Halloween Spooky—and Safe! 🍬🔦

West Norriton Township reminds families to keep these safety tips in mind while trick-or-treating:

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Stay together. An adult should accompany young children. Older kids should travel in groups, follow an agreed-upon route, and have a set time to return home.

🔦 Be bright at night. Carry flashlights or glow sticks and add reflective tape to costumes and treat bags.

🦸 Choose costumes carefully. Make sure costumes fit properly to prevent trips and falls. Keep vision clear and use soft, flexible costume accessories.

🚶 Cross with care. Use sidewalks and crosswalks, look both ways, and make sure drivers see you before crossing. Never dart between parked cars.

🏡 Visit welcoming homes. Stop only at homes with porch lights on, and never enter a stranger’s home or vehicle.

🍬 Check the treats. Wait until a parent or guardian checks candy before eating it. Discard anything unwrapped or with damaged packaging, and check labels for allergens.

🚗 Drivers: Slow down! Put phones away and watch closely for excited children, especially near intersections and driveways.

Have a safe, fun, and fang-tastic Halloween, West Norriton! 🧛🎃

🚛 **Rake It Till You Make It**
🎤 **Sir Sucks-a-Lot**

Clearly, we need adult supervision. That’s where you come in.
