The Lititz Borough Council meeting held on August 1, 2025, focused on community appreciation, regional planning, and updates to the official map. Council members expressed gratitude for the efforts of public works and emergency services during the July 4 weekend, highlighting the dedication that makes Lititz a special place.

Mary, a council member, reported on a recent meeting with representatives from Warwick and Elizabeth Townships. The discussion centered on implementing a regional comprehensive plan, particularly addressing housing shortages. The committee agreed to form a task force that will engage local employers in finding solutions to these housing challenges. Residents interested in participating in this task force were encouraged to reach out to council members.

Additionally, the council discussed plans to update the official map, which serves as a critical tool for managing public land and rights of way. The map not only outlines streets but also provides the borough with the right of first refusal on land that may become available for development. Current discussions include potential trail alignments and the preservation of public interests, such as stormwater management areas.

The meeting underscored the council's commitment to community engagement and proactive planning as Lititz navigates its growth and development challenges. Further discussions on the official map are scheduled for the upcoming planning commission meeting.
