With warm weather and sunny days come the fun of travel, outdoor activities, and yard work. The borough would like to remind residents about several ordinances that relate to spring and summer activities. Due to the number of citizen complaints the borough receives about violations, code enforcement officers are issuing tickets, particularly for parking vehicles over sidewalks, weed and lawn maintenance, and the placement of refuse in front of their properties too far in advance. Please maintain all yard areas and keep grass and weeds to 6″ or less. Also, please remember to place your refuse containers out the night before (after 6:00PM) or on the morning of your pick up. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at codes@bellefonte.net or by phone at 355-1501.

Bellefonte is a borough of approximately 6400 people, located three miles south of Interstate 80, midway across Pennsylvania. It has been home to seven United States governors, contains exquisite Victorian architecture, is rich in history related to the iron and lumber industry, contains natural resources ideal for outdoor water recreation, and has taken a preeminent role in education. Bellefonte was named for its enormous spring by the French statesman, Talleyrand. The rampant demolition of historic buildings so prevalent elsewhere in the United States from the 1950s – 1970s largely bypassed Bellefonte leaving untouched many large, historically and architecturally significant commercial and residential buildings.
Our Mission:
The Borough of Bellefonte is committed to working collaboratively to maintain a safe and secure family friendly community; to providing the public with premium, prompt, courteous service in a cost effective manner; and to managing community development to protect natural and cultural resources.
Our Vision:
By the year 2023, Bellefonte Borough will be a community of opportunity and prosperity.
It will support plans and strategies to provide high quality community services creating an attractive, clean, accessible, and safe community, ensure the preservation of natural and cultural resources, and provide the infrastructure to support opportunities for individual and business growth and development, with special emphasis on recreation, history, and the arts.
