There is no borough hall in Dornsife, so permits go through the township under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code. Most townships in Northumberland County lean on a third-party inspection agency for plan review and inspections instead of staffing their own building department. We file the paperwork, set the inspection date and meet the inspector on site.
Most of Dornsife falls under PPL Electric Utilities, with Citizens Electric Company serving nearby pockets of the county. Either way, we are the ones who schedule the disconnect and reconnect for a service upgrade. Downed lines and outages stay with the utility. The panel, the circuits and everything past the meter fall to us.
